Makes inuslo tho long summer through.
A bird on a bouvh o'er my head.
With voice llko tho tone of a luto,
Sings softly, then onward has sped,
And all the fair woodlands are muto
To list for the sour that has fled.
And yonder, where hill-tops aro hrlaht.
'Neath tlio tremulous klrsol the tun,
1 gaze with a thrill ofdclltsht;
For, e'en while the sweet moments run,
Your form rlsis swllt to my tight.

' And, btecics, bring odors most sweet!
He hastes o'er the meadows to tne,
And lot nt the sound of his feet
Fair buds deck the old trystlng tree.
A WILD RIDE.
Out on the broad prairie, tlio broad emer
ald ocean of the West; above, In the sky,
the pale gray of a swilt-cnniiiig night," he
low, nn the earth, a vust level waste of green
carpeting; to the cast, to tho west, to the
north, to the south a vast horizon, stretch
ing nwny in the misty, invisible distance.
A dreary region, doubtless, save to tho
plowman, or the stock-raiser, or lovers saun
tering arm in arm over the velvety turf.
There wns nothing to disturb our senso of
blissful Eoiitude, except tho great circlo of
emigrant wagons drawn up for the night,
and they, with their busy owners, weie just
fur enough away li give us the feeling of
cnmpaiiiuiiship without unpleasant prox
imity. The whole scene around us breathed of
"peaee on earth, good will towards men,"
and yet, with lnve'a quick insight, I saw
that tbeiu was a cloud over tlio spirit of one
dearer to mo than all else on earth.
"What is it, JInry?" I asked at length,
after a long inlerviil of silence. "Something
tioul.l 'syou thisovening. Thcreloirtdeny
it, dear; it will bo useless. Is it that ynu
begin to doubt tho wisdom of your father's
move lo a wild Western homo? If so, be
lieve me, it was tlio wisest and mot hope
ful cotirso open to a bankrupt merchant
lie will be o rich man yet, Nnttliatl Then,
. v
mi you regiat my impruiiinco in ueeiuing
In seek my fnrluno also at his sido? Il so,
ynu sliilWd liaves.iid it sooner; fi)rnow,niy
lady, 1 declare I'll not go back again, even
at your royal bidding."
"That being the rose," answered Mary,
laughingly, "I will endeavor to bo patient
under tlio affliction, lint tenoutly, Harry,"
and the shadow crept bark over her sweet
lace, "I do feel iinmvoutiiably deptessed
this evening. I have tried to Is. 1 p it, but
in spite of mo my miud keeps dwelling nn
John Ihirtim'd outli. You remember he
swore that lie would follow uud snatch me
Ironi you bel'nro.ivo had crossed .the Itoeky
Mountains ; wo shall reach tlii'lr foot tn
inotlow, I hear, and though it is fnolii-li, 1
know I shall not feel easy until wo have
crossed them in eafely. Ynu need not tell
mo that Ballon is not hcic, and thntliiin
surrounded by linnet, kiiI-licarted people,
even if I had nut you uml lather. I know
nil that, but 1 feel frightened nil tho same.
I cannot help il, lo be patient with me,IIur
ry dear, till it wears oil."
I drew her arm closer to my side, and we
walked silently toward the camp, now illu
minated by the numerous fires kindled
within its circle.
I did not wonder at my dear one's horror
of John Barton's oath. 1, too, had olteu
thought, with a vaguo ut.easiness, of tho
livid, vengeful counleuiiiico and hissing
voice, full of hato and revenge, of Mary'a
rejected lover, us ho stood ronlruuting us
on our departure from our native town, and
swore n solemn oath that she should never
reach her destination nor ever becumo my
wife.
Ho received no word of reply, only a blow
ft uiu my clenched hand, that laid him proa
trate on tho road, und thcie. ufier ucceitaiu.
ing that he was not senou ly hurt, wo kit
linn.
Two months had passd sinco then, and
although I had becretly kept u cluao watch,
I had beer, able to delect no signs of Bar
ton's present o or pursuit, and thus my
vague anxiety had laded away until, I cnu
fess it, Mary's words imbued mu somewhat
with her own uneasiness.
More silently than was our wont, there
foro, wo entered the camp, and proceeded
toward Mury's wagon-home; but to nursur
prise it was not in its usual ositioti,althtugl
my own vehicle, whoso place was next in
tlio row, occupied its uccustomed spot.
After a considerable search we found tho
missing wagon standing outside the circle;
the driver, a sulky .sullen fellow I had never
liked, stood close by it, in earnest vonvcrea
tinn with a dark, lieavih-bcardtd niati.wlio
had joined tho train on horseback a few
days before. Both men hastily withdrew
on our approach, but not iinlil I hau ile-
inanded of the driver au explanation of the
changed position of tho wagon, and receiv
ed a mumbling reply, to the eU'ect that il
would be more sheltered from the cool night
winds.
Tbo horses were unharnessed before
kuew it," said Mr. Scult, my dear one's
father; "but ierhaps it is as well, after all
for the wind was almost too brisk last night.
Going Harry? Well.guod night; sorry wo
shall not have yuu for a near neighbor to
night, as usual.'
A solt"gnnd-night" to Mary, u lingering
pressure of the hand, and thru, milking my
way lo my own wagon, I crept in, and lay
down to sleep at the tide of my trusty dog,
Hover, whoso duly It was "lo keep watih
and ward" over my property during my ab
sceuce. It was long, however, before I lost con-seiousnert,-
thoughts of Mary and her pre

me roughly by the arm. "Wo will talk ns
wo saddle the horse; moments are dearer
than gold. Come, come 1"
I tarried only long enough to snatch up
my cap and pistols, and then hurried after
my Iriend, who had already reached tbo
spot where our horses stood; then, as we
rapidly bridled and saddled tho trusty steeds
who had borno us for many and many a
mile, he told me that which made my eyes
flash and my blood boil.
" I was awakened early In tho night," he
Said," by feeling something ca6t over my
Iirml, so that I rnutd not utter u sound, und
then, in spite of n.y struggles, I was bound
hand and toot. Thcro were two men I
knew their voices one was our driver's;
and, Horry, Iho other wa9 John Barton'sl
I saw him, too, lie was the man who joined
the train a few days ago; that heavy beard
was a disguise. They left mo lying there
helpless, nnd crept tu tho other end of the
wagon, where tlio partition hid them from
my sight. But, oh, Harry I I heard Mary's
half-stilled shriek ; 1 heart! them lift her tn
tho ground, and heard tho horses moving
nway cautiously in the darkness. And I
lay there like a log, boy, suffering torments,
knowing that villains were stealing nwuv
my child, and that every moment added tn
their nnfety, while I could not even givo the
alarm, till the train-master came nt daylight
to rouso mo up. They liavo token our best
wagon-horses, but these good fellows of ours
are swifter and better beasts than they, and
though they have hours Iho start, we'll over
haul them yet. Cheer up, Harry ; this is no
time for a faint hen 1 1.
llcarl-sick, crushed nnd horrified, I yet
stretched out my hand and grasped that my
friend held out to me, ns earnest of my de
termination to pursue, even tn tlio death.
"Thank God," I exclaimed "thank God
that wo have two such good horses to carry
us, and such a faithful, trusty dog us Rover
to guide us I Wo Bhould be helpless indeed
without our dumb lriends I"
"Tlinnlt God for them," Mr. Scott echoed.
And now, here conies tho tluin master with
my saddle-bags filled with provisions; they
may bo needed."
Five minutes more, and wo galloped nwav
from tlie camp, with many a good wish anil
expression nf symputli).
Had thero been any horses there able to
keep jure with our own tho-oughbreds, we
had not Licked company in our wild ride
over tlio short turf nf the prairies short, for
nut long beforu a firo had swept over tiie
plains and burnt air t lie lull grusscs,aud tlir
new growth wasjust springing up, thick and
velvet-liko.
On and on we galloped, not in swift,
transient bursts, wearying nllko lo man and
beast, but in long, steady leaps, such as
spend, but waste not;" and Hover, faith
ful friend, unerring guide, galloped nn be-
lore, turning neither to the right nor tn the
left. Well ho knew that his mission was n
gtave and ii"blo one well lie knew that
work, not play, was beforo him, and that il
behooved him to be cnieful ol his strength.
And so, all through the hot, sultrv dav,
wo sped on and on, man nnd ImrFo and dog,
without pause, or rest, nr fuller, until, just
as Iho sun was sinking low in tho west, our
faithful guido halted, and fur the first lime
that day barked and gamboled, ami then
came rushingtiiwurd us, and laid at our feet
a woman's (Mary's) glnvol
And then our pent-up excitement broke
fortli in a sliout of exultation, for we now
knew b"'ynud a doubt that we were on the
right track. Not that we had for a moment
distrusted Rover's sagacity; but it was some
tiling lo havn a prool tangible to our own
inferior senses.
I snatched up the precious lokcn, and,
pressing it to my Hps, felt tho blood surge
up into my face as a paper rustled inside ;
ilia second I held a litllo peneiled nolo in
my trembling hand just a few lines, in
tho characters I knew and loved as well. It
read:
"Fatiirr HAnnv: John Barton has not
lorgiilten his oalh. I know von will lolliiw
closely. Your horses aru coihI, and Hover
win guiiie you, so I keep up courage. I

me ueiuru luau
Together wo read tlio priceless litllo note
over and over Mary's father and I.
"God bless her I" ha exclaimed. -'My
brave girl."
And then I am not ashamed lo confess
It our tears fell together on the brief lines
her dear hand had traced.
But thero was no time for the Indulgence
nf sentiment, only for action stern, speedv
action, Looking up from the little scrap of
paper in our hands, we saw that Rover and
our pxir foam flecked horses had found tlio
hole dug by the fugitives, and wcro drink
ing in huge draughts of the clear, puro
water, that their labor had provided for our
refreshment.
It must have cost them at least threo
hours hard work, without implements as
they were, and that was so much clear gain
to us a gain uf time and again of water,
without which our owu sturdy animals could
not have pushed on much longer.
We allowed them to crop tlio short grass
for half an hour, that they might start with
renewed vigor; and we, too, needed this
short rest and such refreshment as we could
forco ourselves tu swallow; but srarce was
the half-hour iiatsed, tbau wo were thunder
ing over the prairies again.
The country was no longer the dead lew
that it lud been at the start t it was in swts
rougli and broken, and before us wo ooul
see the thick hate that betokened the van
masses of the Rncky Mouutains looming u
towards tlio sky.

"Ilia Icllnw was In such a hurry toes-

nnd saw his left arm drop helpless at his
side, an he has a broken nrm ns payment for
his rascality. Hcdest-rvcd more,but victors
can afford to bo forgiving."
That night, whilo the Tnoon looked down
bright nnd glorious from the rnlm sky, we
lug a gravo in tlio lonely valley, and rever
ently laid llicr-'in the erring man, whose
evil passions had wrought his doom.

There was a Potroiter among the trio rf
officials who passed over the routo of the
Butler road to seruro tho right nf wav. In
some coses farmer cheerfully signed utT; in
others money had to be used; but in one
case the committee found a mostdrjermlncd
npsitlon. Tlio rnad would dlvido n wid
ow's farm, and she was independent, obsti
nate anil defiant. She knew that her hay
stacks und barns would bo destroyed Ijjr
sparks, her livo stock run over by tntinsind
her slumbers disturbed by the rattle of
trains, and she wouldn't listen to argument
In this emergency one of the committee
il: "Madam, do you know of any wid
ow in this neighborhood who would be wil
ling to board a gentleman connected with
tho construction nf our rnad ? Ho is a wid
ower, and prefers to board with a widow."
'No, I don't know as I do. Is he a nice
man ?" "Splendid man, and has mon;y in
tho bank, We want him tu locate perma
nently at this iltit, nnd are in hopes he
will tako a wife. It is unfortunate that"
"I never did tako boanlers," she mused,
"but" "If you only could, now, I'm sura
von would not reeret It. Ifn woiil.l h. lit-A
a father to your liltlo ones." "Perhaps I
might to accommodate ynu." "Ah I thanks.
Ho would bo here next week if this right-of-way
matter was decided, but as It is ba
may not" "Do you agree to pay damages
if you burn my barn" "Ofcoursewedo."
"And I'll probably get used to the noi6ol"
"Oh, of course. In a week you wont mind
it. Fact is you'll sit up every night till
midnight, anyhow, nfter the gentleman ar
rives." "Oh, no, I shan't, I shall never
love again, but If he is a nice man, and
loves chililrrn,why, I don't know as I ought
to stop your rnad. I guess J'll sign."' Vt
