And, like a dream of beauty, glides away. How through each loved familiar path she lingers Serenely smiling through the golden mist, Tinting the wild grapo with her dewy fingers, Till the cool emerald turns to amethyst,— Kindling the faint stars of the hazel, shining To” light the gloom .of Autumn’s mouldering hails; With hoary plumes the clematis entwining, Where o’er the rock her withered garland fulls. Warm lights are on the sleepy uplands waning, Beneath dark clouds along the horizon rolled, Till Hie slant sunbeams through their fringes raining, Bathe all the hills in melancholy gold. The moist winds breathe of crisped leaves and flowers, * In the damp hollows of the woedlami sown, Mingling the freshness of autumnal - showers With spicy airs from cedar alleys blown. Beside the brook and bn the umbered meadow, • Where yellow fern-tufts Heck the faded ground, With folded lids beneath their palmy shadow, The gentian nods, In dewy slumbers bound. Upon those soft, fringed lids the bee sits trood . lug, . , Like a fond lover loth to say farewell; Or, with shut wings, through silken folds In ‘ trading, • Creeps ueiu‘ her heart his drowsy lulo to toll. The little birds upon the Inll-sldo lonely, . 'Flithoiseiessly along fro.m spray to spray, .Silent as a sweet, wandering thought, Hint only Shows its bright wings, aud softly glides away. The scentless llowcrs, in the warm sunlight dreaming, Forgot to breathe their fulness of delight; Ami through the tranced woods soft airs are streaming, Still as the dew-fall of the summer night. So, in my heart a sweet, unwonted feeling Stirs, like the wind In Ocean’s hollow shell,- Through all Its secret chambers sadly stealing, Yet finds ho word Us mystic charm to tell. afiiscellatiEous. MUAT THE ENGINEER SAID. lam an engineer. Ever since the road was laid, I’ve traveled over it every day, or nearly every day of my life. For a good while I’ve had the same en gine in charge—the San Francisco—the prettiest engine on the road, aiid as well managed, if I say it, as the best. It was a southwestern road, running, we will say from A. to ,R. At A. diy good old mother lives; at R. I. had the sweetest-little wife under the aim, and a baby; and I had always a dollar or two put by for a .r;uuy day. I was an odd sort of man. Being shut up with the en gine, watching with all your eyes aud heart and soul inside and out, don’t make a man talkative. My wife’s name was Josephine, and I called her Jo. Some people ; called me unsociable, aud couldn’t understand how a man could feel friendly without saying ten words an hour. So, though I had a few old friends—dear ones too—l bud not so many acquaintances as most people, and did not care to have. The house that held my wife and babes was the dearest place on earth to me, except the other house that held my mother qt A. I’d never belong to a club, or mix my self up with strangers in such awtfy, and never should, if it, hadn’t been for Gran by. You see Granby wasoneofthestfare holders, a handsome, showy sort of a fel low. He often rode from R. to A. and back again with me and.once he said : “You ought to belong to the Scientific Club, Gueldon.” “Never heard of it,” said. f. “I am a member f ” said he. “We meet once a fortnight, and have a jolly good time. We want thinking men like you. We have some among us now. “I’ll pro pose you, if you like.” I was lond of such“thiugs7~aiid 1 had an idea that I might be worth something. But then an engineer don’t have days or nights to himself, and the club would take one evening from Jo. so I said : “I’ll ask her; if she likes it, yes.” “Ask whom?” said he. “Jo,” said I. .•• • . “If every man had. asked his wife, every man's wife would have said, “can’t spare.you, my dear,’* and we would have hud no club at all,” said Granby. , But I made -no anewer. At home I told JO. t?be said ; “I shall miss you, Ned ; but you dolove such things, and then if Mr. Granby be longs they must be superior moo.” “No doubt,” said I. . “It isn’t everybody could be made a membe;,” said Jo. “Why, of course you must say yes.” bo 1 said yeM, and Granby proposed me—Xhursday lortnight L went in with him to the rooms. There were some men there with brains, some without. The real business of the evening was the sup per, and so it was every evening. I’d always been a temperate man. I actually did not know, what effect wine would have upon me-; but on coming to drink more of it than I had ever done before at the club table, I found it put steam on. After so' many glasses I wanted to talk 7 after so many I did. It seemed like somebody else, thQ' words were so ready. My little ideas came out and were listened to. I mate sharp hits; I indulged in repartee. I told stories ; eveu came puus. I heard somebody say to Mr. Granby; “By George that’s a man worth knowing. I thought him dull at first. ' Yet I knew it was better to be quiet Ned Oeldou, with his ten words an hour, than the wine-made wit I was. I was sure of it when, three hours after, I stumbled up stairs at home to find Jo, waiting for me with her babe on her breast, “You’ve been deceiving me,” said Jo. “I’ve suspected it, but wasn’t surd. A scientific club couldn’t smell like a bar room.” “Which menus I do,” said I, waving in the middle of the room like a signal ling at a station and setting to Jos. “And look like one,” said Jo ; and she went and looked herself and the baby in the spare bed-room. One cold night j as I dressed to go, Jo. stood before me. “JSed,” She said, “I never hkd a fault to find with you before. I’ll say that. You've been good and kind and loving, always; but I should bo sorry we ever met if you are to go on in this way. Lou’task mo what I mean. You know." “Bo,” said I, “tlsouly on club night.” “It will grow," said she. Then she put her. arms around my ueok. “Ned,” said she, “do you think a thing so much like a bottled upland strapped down demon as steam is, fit lo be put In the hands of a drunken man ? And some day murk my words, the time .will come when not only Thursday night', but all the days of the week will bo the same. I’ve ol tun heard you wonder what the feeliugs ot an engineer who has about tho same as murdered a train lull of peo ple must be and you’ll know if you don t atop where you are. Asteudy hand auda clear head have been your blessings all these years, Lou’t throw them away, js’ed. If you don’t care for my love, don’t ruin your.-elf.” ■ ~ “Lon’t bo afraid, child,” I said, “I’ll never ruin you agpln.’-' And I mean it j but at twelve that' night I felt that I hail forgotten my promise aud >ny resolution. 1 eould’t go homo to Jo.

SWAMP. I(« llbtorr, I(a Mynfcry., !(•* Roranneo, IU JLesendA. The air, iu a circuit of thirty miles, is Ailed with odorous vapor almost too op £ restive for Inspiration. The Great ismal Swamp is on Fire! The flames are sweeping its border lino for fail ten miles from east to west, devouring its underwood and burning Hie roots of Its cypresses two feet under the soil. The area of the wilderness is three hundred square miles.' Its truck lies like that of an immense horrid serpent, commenc ing nine miles back ol Norfolk, and so far from the bay'coast, and reaching southward thirty miles into the borders of North Carolina. To all the inhabi tants ofSouthern Virginia, living around its dark borders, tlio Dismal Swamp has a fume like that of a half exploded cata comb. Ask one of tlie unimaginative rcsioents of the neighborhood* who has never heard of Tom Moore, about this huge, half-romantic wilderness, and his description ends with too statement that it is an ugly” place, of which he knows 1 little and wishes he knew less, as be bos' , on some occasion mired in its waste deep, i duck-shooting on its margin. Long ago, In the earliest history of the countryman adventurous hunter pressed through to ‘the*centre of this wilderness, and discov ered a vast sheet of water lying within its mysterious depths. The water took the hunter's name, since then Lake Drummond has become known to geo graphical' and other fame. In 1804 the Irish Tom Moore the diminutive poet, “Jump up and kiss me, Tom,” of the ladies—visited Norfolk, and heard there the traditional story of a young man who, on the death of the girl lie loved, lost his reason. . In the lover's ravings he often sai(J she was not dead, but gone to the Dismal Swamp. Ho suddenly disappear ed, and his friends never afterward heard of him, and it was surmised that be had wandered into these gloomy morasses ■-and perished. Moore wrote upon the in cident of the story the weird melancholy ballad commencing: “They made her a grave too'coldand damp For a soul so warm and true. And she’s gone to thodalce of the Dismal swamp. "Whore all night long, by her H. e*fly h mp •She paddles her white canoe. ‘And horllre*fly lamp I soon shall see, .

It is as familiar to day, with the mysterious, romantic intererest of Moore's poem, to the world’s reading public, as tlie Dead Sea or the shadows of the Brocken. What there is of the Dismal Swamp to the physical eye, is a vast sedgy forest of cypress, juniper, oak, gum, and pine trees, its gloomy recesses filled with pools and swamps, overgrown with shrubbery and tamrled wild, vine. To Virginia, the swamp has a historical memory clinging to it, sombre as its cypress and mosses. It was the hiding-place of the Mat. Turner msur ilrectiouists, after the first stroke for lib:/ s'crty. For six weeks, to the whole South i it seemed indeed, that in these horrid ) recesses of nature, the avenging genius 1 of slavery crouched but for a moment be > lore covering the lalid with desolation, i f'n magnified he menace of danger to the conscious eserta of its crime. Nat. Turner came ut of the Dismal Swamp, starved, at aat.and was taken and hung, asamons er black fiend, and history has, passejl liiri as a murderer ou the gallows. J*f his rebellion had been successful; as It deserved, failing by no fault of his ,lo free his oppressed race, his monumtpt to day, would not be unfinished ns Washington’s. To-day the Dismal S waAip Canal runs through it from nortli to south, and the Portsmouth and Roadoke Railway crosses its northern borders. — Before the war the romantic aen/lmont had built on Drummond lake, niur the centre of the,swamp, a hotel, wWch was considered a sortof ‘Gretna Gi eev for the consummation of runaway matones.

An eminentphysielan sends the follow ing timely views on consumption to the \Hcarth andSStbe ; The first announcement to a patient that he or she has consumption, Is often like a death knell. The vacant stare, the pale cheek, and the convulsive sigh indi cate a shook of the most profound charac ter. Indeed, I have known persons to swoon away, and require the most active exertions to restore them. ,' And yet it' is not true that consumption is necessarily a fatal disease. In point of fact, it is not as fatal as many diseases which prevail In every community, and yet excite no re mark. Consumption results from a per verted nutrition. Instead of that perfect assimilation essential to sound health there is an imperfect elaboration of the I nutritive fluids, which leads, by inflam matory action or other processes, to the deposition in the lungs and other tissues of crude material known us tubercle. Persons predisposed to consumption, or living under circumstances which lower the vital energies, and prevent the nutri tive processes, are those in whom this af fection most frequently appears. It fol lows that there 1s no specific for cousump ! tiou. It is not curable by medicines; on the contrary, its fatal issue is more often hastened by dedication,-- For tiie encouragement of patients, and •to illustrate the course of life most likely to restore vigorous health, a condition in compatible with consumption, I usually relate cases that have come under my ob servation. Tljo following is one example among many: ■ “ A young medical friend, having an hereditary tendency to cousumptlou, be gan to realize its first well-marked symp toms. It progressed rapidly toward a fa tal termination, the cough, emaciation, and hectic betrayed his condition to the most superficial observer.

Aro-sed to a pitch of desperation, be determined that he would hot lie down and die, but would betajie himself to out-door life. He accordingly spent his entire day in horse-back exer cise, sawing wood, boat-towing, etc. At 1 night he slept bn a hard bed in an out house through which the winds had full play.

Pilgrims, sinners and Arabs are all abed now, andlthe camp is still. Labgrkr loneliness'is irksome. Since I mademy last few notes I bave been sitting outside tbe tent for half an hour.; Night is the time to see Gallilee. Geuessaret under these lustrous stars has nothing repulsive about it. Genessa-at. with, the glittering reflections of the constellations flecking its surface, almost makes me regret that I ever’saw the rude glare of the day upon it. Its history and its associations are its chiefest charm in any eyes, and the spells they weave are feeble in the searching light of the sun. Then we scarcely feel the fetters. Our thoughts wander, con stantly to the practical concerns of life, and refuse to dwell upon things that seem vague and unreal. But when the day is ■domreven-the-most unimpressible- must yield to the dreamy influence of this tranquil starlight. The old traditions of the place steal uponi his memory and haunt. Ills reveries, and then his fancy clothes all sights and sounds with the su pernatural. In the lapping of the waves upon the beach he hears the dip of ghost ly oars ; in the secret noises of the night he hears spirit voices,; in the soft sweep of the breeze the rush of invisible wings. Phantom ships are on the sea, the dead of twenty centuries come forth from the; tombs, and in the dirges of the night wind the songs of old, forgotten ages, find utterance again. In the starlight Gallilee has no boun daries but the broad compass of the heav ens, and is a theatre meet for the birth of a religion able to save the world, and meet for the stately figure appointed to stand upon its stage and proclaim its high decrees. But in the starlight. 01 e says It is the deeds which were done and for the wordsrwhich were spoken in the lit tle sere of rocks aud sand eighteen centu ries gone, that the hells are ringing to day in tlie remote islands of the sea, aud far and wide over continents that clasp the circumference of the huge globe !

During all this time its people have been warders of the insane, until they understand that disease as no one else has doue, apd have grown into a re lation to it that is hardly comprehensi ble. “Itla a place,” says a foreign-det ler writer, “ where tho sane and Insane are indistinguishable: where the chil dren are bred up at the, knees, of mad men, and old people do not fear mono maniacs ; where the strongest tradition Is the lore of mental medicine, and the liveliest commerce the lodging of the In sane • where the mother has been known to place her child in the armsof a furious maniac because her duty was to pacify him • whore the inns are hospitals, the farm houses cells, the tradesmen War dens. the work-women nurses, the Gov ernment a mad doctor, tho passers-by patients, the history for twelve hundred years a vast register of mania.

Advantages of' Ciiyino.—A French ' physician is out In a long dissertation on the advantages of groaning and crying In general and especially during surgical op erations. He con tends that groaning and oryingare two operations with which Na-' ture allays apguleh; that those patients who give way to their natural feelings more speedily recover from accidents and operations than those who suppose it un worthy a man to betray aucb symptoms of cowardice as either 10 groan or to cry. He tells ot a man who reduced his pulse from one hundred and twenty-six to six ty, in the course of a few hours; by giv ing full vent to his emotions. If people are at all unhappy about anything, let them go into their rooms ahd comfort themselves with aloud boo-ho°» and they will feel a hundred percent, bettera( ' ter ward. In accordance with the above, the cry ing of children should not to be too great ly discouraged.
