.DUATIJ or NATHAN IIAL.11,
An American Spy in the Jlcrotvtion.
llv Miss K. V. McClkax.
'Twas nn cvo of holy beauty, and ns slowly
sank to rest,
1 lie sun, beneath the crimson clouds that
decked thc glowing west"
A captive gated with sadness, from his dreary
prison room,
On tho landscape eoftiy hiding In the twilight
dewy gloom.
Yet saw he not tlio hills tlintroso,ln Sprlnit's
bright orb arrayed,
Nor the brook In light and shadow, that went
flashing through the glade;
For his mourntut thoughts aro roaming to n
dear homo far nway,
And tho anguish that would darken It when
dnwucd another day.
Welt knew ho at this quiet hour, around tho
pleasant hearth,
The loved ones all were gathered In their
cheerful evening mirth ;
And yet, with tones of sorrow trembled oft
tho voices clear,
Whllo the pensive smile was blended with the
silent falling tear.
Their puro deep love was mingled wllh a noble
lofty pride i
They thought him with his country's ranks,
amid the true ami tried.
Alas I within a hostile camp his guard In
sulting Iocs
Tho "Ilcbcl Spy" behold his last of earthly
evenings closo.
Oh, who may tell the agony of that long weary
nlnhtl
Till dawned upon his slceple.'s eyes the peace
ful morning light I
And must then end his glorious hopes, his
boyhood's dream of lame,
Tosuircr In his manhood's morna lelon'sdcnth
or shame?
The sun arose In lovlincss; a clear unclouded
sky
Arched o'er tlio band that gatber'd round to
see the doomed ono die :
Yet proud his words, as firm he stood beneath
the ratal tree,
'I only mourn, my country, I can dlo but once
fur thee."
When even's shadow stole again within that
silent vale,
It fell upon the lonely grave where slept tho
martyr IIai.k.
Bat when tho blast was walling In the mid
ntight's solemn gloom,
A white-haired Biro was weeping on that cold
unhonortd tomb.
Ho rests forgotten ! O'er his grave the Sum
mer winds have sighed,
And many times liavo flowers bloom'd and
faded since he died,
Now a nation proud has risen, when then but
a scanty band
Was struggling 'gainst a tyrant for their fair
and cherished lind.
Oblivion's shadow coldly falls nnd shroudshls
fate In gloom :
Hut even thoso he would have wrong'd wept
over Andre's tomb.
Over history's pa are Is twined for one a wreath
of deathless fame ;
The other few for whom he died have ever
heard his naino.
TOGETHER AT LAST.
Miss Carney walked up tho long green
Inno on her way home from a tea party,
Sho wore n brown silk dress and a brown
bonnet, nnd carried a largo brown parasol in
her hand
Tlie biowns were of different shades, and
ran softly into euch other, likotholintsupoii
a dove,
All tlie lines of her firaro wcro smooth
and rounded.
Sho was a very pretty old lady indeed ,ai)d
must have been n very pretty girl, though
she was a spinster, and peoplo who believed
that all unmarried women were left upon
the boughs of single, blessedness becausothey
tempted nobody tn pluck them, must have
owned that it could not be so in her case.
Down tlio lane, coming towards her,walk
cd a gentleman.
He was tall nnd broad, his hair was gray,
and his hat was gray : nnd his summer suit
was grayj his beard was gray also,
He, oddly enough, was soltly shaded off
like another eort of dove.
The green trees were all about them both,
tho green grass beneatli their feet. Tho
roses nodded over tho fence.
If theso had been two young people in
stead of two old people, ono might havo
fancied it a lover's rendezvous, but they
wero old.
Of course there could be no romance about
them.
In thc mlddlo of tho lane, shaded by great
chestnut trees, stood an old house.
Honoysuckles draped tho porch.
There was an old-fashionr d sweep to the
well.
It was altogether a thing of the Jiast no
modern cottage of architectural mysteries.
It was so old-fashioned that it must have
been tho same when those two old people
were young. Yes, when their parents were
born, doubtless it stood, by no means a now
house, just ns it stood now.
The pretty old lady in brown reached tho
gate of this house first.
She lifted the latch and stood looking
down tho road, thinking that it must be that
the handsome old gentleman in gray had
lost his way, and would inquire it of her,
for tho loue was no thoroughfare because rt
a fence, and a gate, and u sign with All
persons are forbid to trespass upon these
grouuds" nailed upon it.
Tho old lady's father had put up the sign
the day after the peddler had stolen all his
pears.
'o neighbors minded it, but strangers
dU.
So tho old lady waited courteously to tell
the stranger that he might taketheshurtcut
through tho orchard if he chose.
"lie walks like somebody I know. AVho
can it be?" she asked herself.
Then she suddenly blushed, and looked
prettier than ever. Yes, certainly it could
not bo because no one had desired to pluck
her that sho remained a faded rose upon the
branch -Miss Carney, not Mrs. anybody.
On came tho old gentleman til Ids gray
cout, and as he looked at the little old lady
he dotted his gray hat. ,
" Madam," he said, "this is where Mr.
Edward Carney used to live, I know. Does
he live hero now 1"
But the old lady looked at him with a
sudden start.
" OUI" she cried j and added, "Nojhe does
not,"
"He is " began the old gentleman.
"It Is his tombstone that you con see un
der the great willow in the highest art of
.. i,nP1,v...r,i ti. ..i twdntlnvllimiKrli
the churehjard, itio saiu, pointing mrougu
the trees, "Ha was cia-htv when he d.ed."
'
"Time flies fast, " said the eld gentleman.
" Fearfully fast," t ghed the oil lady,
a Year if 'Paid In Advauce.
If ndt'paid in advance, $1.25.
She was not looking at him nuw, but at
tlio flowers iu the borders nt her feet,.
"Mr, Carney was a widower when I knew
him, and had but oho child n daughter,"
said the did echtlctnaii 111 gray. " Sho is
living, Is she hot?;
" Yes," said tho old la'dy.
"But she cannot bo Miss Carney still,"
said (lie old gciitlemani
" But she is," Knid the old lady,and looked
hilii In thc face figatn. '
Their eyes met. Iters were brmvn and
his were gray.
" People alter out of knowledge in forty
years," suid she; "and hqw on earth I enmc
lo know you l don't know, for you look likn
your own grandfather, Mnik Turner."
" Ask the old gcntlclnan lo walk in then,
Miss Carney," s.ild tie ; " for ho ought to be
mote wpary tian ho used to grow on the
sime road a lifetime ago, coming from Iho
mill, you remember, Prisoy, every Sunday
evening."
' Did you ?" said she, pretending lo for
get. "Oh, yes I ofcomso I'll nsk you to
walk In, Mr. Turner."
She turned. He followed her.
They sat down in tho parlor one on
either side of tlio polished table.
Over It, between the windows, hung tho
loMiln-glnss with Its narrow gilt frame.
Tlio book-case filled the lecess.
On the mantelpiece were some shell flow
ers under glas
There was Iho stiff soft with tlie black
cushion like n slico ofu tinted column; there
were the six chairs to match, and the claw
fooled sideboard.
There had been no children to break or
scratch things.
All was tlio same ns when ho left it last,
nnd saw Miss Carney statidingin Ihenilddle
of the floor with her long block hair in curls
about her shoulders, nnd a bluo ribbon
around her taper girl's wniet.
Now ho louked at her, nnd she was really
old nnd stout, but somehow she seemed to
be nobody else but Triscy Carney,
Sho saw him looking from tho furniture
to her face, and interpreted his thought,
"Yes," she said, almost angrily, " Is it not
strango? There are tho bits of wood and
glass and china, just ns they used to be,
Tlicro are tho oak trees, only finer and
greener. The very grass nnd flowers might
bo tho same; and here am I, old, faded, and
lonely, and mylhandsomobright-eycd father
dead iu Ills grave, and all I ciro forgone,
I wish I were gone also. I think people
who have not seen cacliVither for forty years
need not seek to seo each other again. I
wish thoy would' not.'eomo to mo after being
all tho same ns dead for forty years. It Is
precisely like seeing ghosts."
Sho looked as if sho wanted tn cry.
"Poor old ghost," said ho, "whom no ono
wants to see not even thoso who promised
to remember him forever."
"Forty years Is much worse than forever,"
said she, "nnd fifty-six Is a terribly unro
mnntin ago."
" Yes, it is," said he, "but it is a good age
enough for ghosts. By tho way, do you like
ghost stories? Let me tell you ono.
"Once there was a ghost now I think of
it, ho wasn't always a ghost; he was a boy
once tho son of a miller down by the water
side. Ho worked in tho mill, nnd was
floury nnd white ns a ghost should be most
of the time; but ho was happy and gay, nnd
many things happened ns ho like. Ono of
them was when a certain rich farmer in tho
nelgiiborhood came to thc mill. The grain
his servants brought iu tho great wagons,
but he, the farmer, used to drive to the mill
with his little daughter, In Iho gig, besido
him. Sho was n pretty child, with long
curls, and her eyes wcro big and brown,
"Sho mode a pretty picture In her white
dresses and bright ribbons, and sho came1
when she was soyoungthat sho used to hold
her hands out to this boy nnd cry, "Como
here, 'iltls boy. Show me where tho Tour
sills from."
"For that was what she liked to see the
best, the flour sifting through the fine mus.
lin. Every week sho used to come until the
miller sent his boy nway to school. When
ho camo home again she was a girl of six
teen, prettier than ever, and she remembered
asking nim to let her see tho flour sift, and
sho talked to him while her father was at
tending to his business; and the days when
sho did not come the boy cared nothing for,
and tlie days that brought her were marked
and picked out as blessed days.
"After a while he got over the shyness
that kept him from going to see her, and
went, and she was not displeased. She was
the mistress of the house, for her mother
died young. She used to make tea for him
on Sunday afternoon; and after tea her
father would put his hankerchief over his
head nnd fall Into a nop. Then they used
to whisper together. Long after the poor
boy came to bo a ghost he used to remember
those evenings, when he was a bright-check
ed young fellow, tho son of a rieli millcrnd
had the hope of marrying her he loved before
his eyes.
"Ho thought the girl loved, him as well
ns he loved her, and he had no fears nf the
future, no thought that trouble could come
to him in any way, until misfortune over
took his father. The good old man failed.
The mill wis sold. There was nothing but
anxiety at home. At last the worst came
his father died soon after his jrnother. He
was very sad; he was poor also; hut ho had
hope, for he was beloved by the one he
loved.
" One day he went to her for comfort. Ho
remembered tho day ever after. The low-
built, old-fashioned house, the great oaks,
tho flower garden,the girl In her white dress
and blue ribbons who came to greet him.
He was full of lire still, but that nlght,when
he turned away from the house, he was n
ghost the miserable ghost ol his old self,
for he no longer had nny fullh Iu love. j
" Standing beforo him, palo and Mil, and
with tears In her eyes, it Istruohehwl heard
tier who had made the world bright for him
say, "It is my father's will that we should
part, I ennnot disobey my only parent."
" Then iho had told him that she Joyed ;
him as well ai ever; but ha did not believe
her. lie thought Jill poverty had turned
her heart from him, that she had never felt
tenderly toward! him, and he left her in
ger, believing nil that had been mid and
written about the faIluKI ofwumeii, Yes,
he was turned intua ghost."
"He might have known she was as un
happy as he was," I Mas ( arnev,

nothing could mnlie her marry nny ono' eUo
nothing. Tiiot she could do at least."
" Bui the poor ghost did hot know that."
said tho old man. " It wandered ewuy
broken'hearlcd. H found Ha way to the se.i
first, ahd then Into the battle. Fur years it
was a wretched ghost, greatly to be pitied,
and only wishing to die; but at last it grevr
content though never happy, and worked in
agreatcity at a trade it had, until it had
tnade n fortune.
"All the same, it was a miserable old
bachelor ghost, and never found a nutivmil
used to say often nnd nllen, over and over
again, to itself, that women were all false,
nnd that the women lie loved had been
utterly false to him. He supposed her mar
ried to some one else, and all this time ho
grew blder nnd older, and longyears lay be
tween hiln nnd the happy time when hu was
a boy."
" Long, long years," sighed Miss Carrtcy.
"Long, long years."
"But ono d'iy," proceeded tho old gentle
man, "ono day there camo to him out uf Iho
past an old familiar face, and amidst tlio
wh'rl of the great city this ghost talked to It
of the green, lanes and rippling streams nf
thc spot where he was born, and asked of
tho house under the oaks, and the girl wlio
dwelt there oncc-tlio girl who hod been, ns
lie thought, false to him. And this old friend
told him something that made him feel sud
denly that he might ccmc to life again.
" Sho never married," she said It was
a woman. "She lives iu Iheold house now.
Other men loved her, but she never loved
nny other man but you, Wo all know
that,"
"And then the ghost said to litmaelC
' Foity years of life lost," nnd went down tn
the green country place to haunthis old love,
nnd hear her say she was sorry tu seo lilm."
" Oil, dear I oh, dear 1" sighed the little old
lady in blown. " How could sho help it If
All her beauty gone, all her youth ; what
could sho feel but sorry, and just n ghost
herself."
She rose and turned nway, II" rnsonud
followed her, putting his arm about her
waist,
" rrisoy," ho said, " you nro the only
woman I over loved. Is not Hint something
for a man to say when it is truoasgosiol?"
" Yes,"said she,"und I almost believe ynn,
for for t novcr eared for any ouo ehe,
either."
"Then why not do our best to ha happy
now, Prisoy? why not marry each other,
and bo living again, not two pmr old
ghosts ?"
"Well, becauo folks would call us two
old fools," said sho.
" Well, let them," said he.
" Very well," said she, "I don't rare."
Then the old gentleman in gray kissed the
old lady in brown, unit said, "What dny
shall we set, my dear ?"
What her answer was may bo gueswd
when the village bells, one mouth later,
rang the wedding peal of the old loyeu.

Upon the greensward, with my most adored
