It pleased us well. whoa WeVere boys,
(And barfly thought 'twaa wrong.)
To boot and make onseemly eo as
'thereby to drown her song,.
For Margaret, they said,. was mad I
It made us laugh with glee.
The worn uld face, so hruwa, sad aad ;
The shrivelled lips to
Those Zips, we thought, were never red,
The cheeks u air as girls',
And th' hair beneath her cap we still
Was never worn in curb.
Mid Lbongb oft:times the
Grew awangelygralre and valise
Wbeneer be beard =Saki:While
With Jast,and inocidnridighi
We nothing cared ; behind our boot
We'd whisper, half in dread,
flow grand the bald old head would look,
Were he and Margaret wed I
A silent distant man was be,
Whose bosom seemed to bold
A troubled bout that would not be
Uplifted or consoled. '5.
Amazed, we stared with all our eyea,
The evening'that we met
The schoolmaster, so old and wise,
Walking with Diarg;szet. I
0, how we shouted, when, one morn,
As forth we went to play,
We saw the touch of the corn
Strung round ha head so gray I
It mattered not the fan we made—
She never/aid a word ;
And when, one day, we ail essayed
To steal her singing WA,
That trilled within its home made cage ;
We surely thought to see
The crasy woman in • mea—
lier eyes beseechingly _
awed into ours, and lined with clerk
• And, blnahing alidashamed, "
We dropprd the cage and ran with ream
While each the other blamed.
We bond to pinch the unripe unit
That grew behind her bonze,
And well our wanton minds 'Mould suit
To scare away her cow.—
Twc unclean, gaunt and famished Deana
That broused upon the brake
And weeds upon the road. What feasts,
We leered, their frames- would snake 1
Sometimes we used to hedge them la,
And each and all would try.
In some old battered cup of tin,
To milk, their udders dry.
The village butcher used to say—
And how it made us laugh—
A gale some day would blow away
Old Margaret's - cow like chaff!
Bat, eh I en:while our mirth wu turned
To sadness and dismay,
When from the schoolmaster we learned
That site had passed away ; •
That she had gone to mansions built
Nor planned by minds of men I
And then we knew how deep oar rah—
Bow wicked we had been.
I mind e'en now, although my hair
Has lost its golden brown,
How on my daces., then lamb and Lair,
The warm tears came wielding' dowla
When, in the schoolhouse, still u death,
We stood up in a row,
And beard,,the while with athlad breath,
The master's voice so low.
Re told as she bad gone from earth,
Wiere :tutu' would return ;
That she lad had another birth
Beyond the stars that burn.
And then, from next his heart, he took
A picture in a case,
And, one by one, he made as look
Upon the shadow-faros
A sweeter, dearer face than this,
We thought we'd never met ;
And when we raised' our eyes to his
With tears we saw them wet.
And straightway, then, our easy Wank
We knew not why, fell fast.
And some, grown wise beyond our yens,
Bb secret knew at last.

Tettlns Her innocence.
The following touching scene recently
occurred in a Parisian court of joptice:
A poor pale, wan seamstress was ar
raigned for theft. - She appeared at the
bar with a boy eleven or twelve mouths
old in her arms, her child. She went to
get some work one day, and sole tbr .e
coins of Mt each. The money was niist
ed soon after she left her employer, and is

asked by the judge what She Ila.l 1. - , say
for herself, she answered : day I

my bonnet, and was going batik to my
employer to return them when I was ar
rested.. This is the, s demo truth, as 1
hoe for heaven s mercy?'
The courtdid nt believe this story. They
upbraided the mother forhet impulene.
in end. avnring to palm off such a • manl
ier lie for the truth. They besought her
for her own sake to retract so a'lsured a
tale, for it could be of nueffect, but oblige
the court to sentence her to a mncli
severer punishment than they were dis
posed to inflict upon one so young evident- ,
ly steeped so deep in poverty. These ap
peals had no effect except to strengthen
the poor mother's pertinacious adherence
to her original story. As the firmness
was sustained by that look of innocence
which the most adroit criminal can never
counterfeit, the court were at some loss to
discover what decision justice demanded.
To relieve their embarrassment one ..t
the judges proposed to renew the scene'
described by the mother. The gold coins
were place on the clerk's table. The mo
ther was requested to assume the position
in which he said she stood at her. em
ployer's house. There was then a breath
ing in the court. The baby soon dis
covered the bright coin, eyed it fur a mo
ment, smiled and then stretched for its
tiny hands and clutched them in , its
fingers with a miser's eagerness. The
mother was acquitted.
Wbat a Woman Said.
"Isn't it too bad—long dresses seem to
be coming into fashion again I Not the
real long trains they used to wear, but
what are called idemi-trsine,' drugging
about two inches on the ground. Fug'
two or three years everybody haswytii
short dresses for walking, and 1 ilever
spoke to a single woman *at' didn't like
them, and rejoice to be delivered from
those troublesome, dirty. long trains. But
these demi-trains are worse than the old
ones. Those dragged so long on the
ground that only the under aide might
the dirt, and we used to line that side'
with leather—no not leather, but that
shiny glazed stuff they cover sofas with,
I forget its name —with that. or wiggin,
or some such star, so when you got home
from a walk the dirt could all be brushed
off from that, and the dress was fit to
wear again. But this demi-trains cover
the dress with dirt outside and in. Now
to-day I saw two tulles wearing them ;

A as Story.
Dawn in Tuckahoe, there is a man
named Simpson,who has a flat 'roof un
his house coverd With tin. The rout gut
to leaking badly a few weeks ago, and
,it
happened to occur to Mr. Simpson ,that
it wriiild be a good thing to cover the
whole sterface with the material out of
Which concrete pavements are made,, "So
as to make her
. 01 tight and nice," said
Simptin. A man was accordingly engag
ed, and he corered the tin with concrete
to, the depth of three or four inches. The
curse of Tuckahoe is cats. In warm
weather millions of them assemble and
hold ratification meetings and rellearsa's
and Geneial Synods out in the back yards
and on the roof& In Tnekahoe lag July
the heat was unusually intense, and Mr.
Simpson was exceedingly ! annoyed by the
animated discussions of eats in the migh
borhood. The more he -shooed" them
and thing old boots at them, the more
they yelled. Night after night it continu
ed to grow more terrific, and day after
day Mrs. Sitpoto9 observed teat the mys
terious caterwauling cuutintied &Ira,: all
the honrs of da‘light. Simpm hadn't a

Vortaring Criminals in China
China evidently believes . that punish
ment should be deterrent ruttier than re- ,
formatory. The tat mail from that
country brings news of a fiendish ease: of
torture intl.cted upon a native of Foil.
chow, for the crime of kidnapping chil
dren. The poor wretch. we are told, was
exposed. by. the side ,i 1 th e s t,,, et in - a
wooden cage of such . a height that while
his head protruded through the top he
could just touch the bottom with his toes.
His hands were tied behind him, slid his
ankles were chained- t..ge h e r O n t he
first day of hi., impri-oitn.int he was- al
lowed to sit on a b•hir 1 place] across the
cage at the prop-r h-igot. but after the
first twenty-four hour- ibis wus: retitoved.
and he was then only supp ,, rted by his
n•-ck and t Sonic of the crowd who
surrounded him threw b u t of broken
,bricks into his caire, and watched with
jeirs his iiieffevtual attempts to place them
,under his feet, to relieve -the r frightful
istritih upon hip neck. His grtianings met
'wall no sympathy, and he •was deprived
,of all .fi od. In this state he was lett to
die.. Of course, the torture is long. or.
short according to the vitality of the
I,crimitial. I A week before this poor crea
ture suffered, s notorious thief bad been
subjected to, the same torture, in the

"How long can' you keep her afloat ?"
carelessly inquired the young Templar.
"She may.go down in five minutes; she
cannot keep afloat more than fifteen," re

"Blow, Warder, blow?' said the yonhg
Templar, speaking- to his ensign: -who
stood 'neer bim, at the same time 1-upiu r
upon capstan. Every one was artlec
by a sbrrll blast from the Warder's 'rum

from their scabbards at theAblast.

commander. "The next ceremony ip the

match ; the Countess was too "fast" for
her Virginia views of Society sobrieff.

far Not long since, a young man was
called upon to make some remarks in a
Sabbath School, at. which' quite a largo
number of young ladies , and gentleman
were in attendance. After descanting
upon the importance of Sabbath Schools
in general and theonecessity of gathering
in the little ones to be taught, he naively
proposed that a "committee of young hr.

children for the Sabbath School." Noho

of suffocation. Theineit morning sever
