The Uliils' Tarty.
Ths birds bats a party one britrht summer's flsy
'Twi held In a meadow of nowly-mown bsy,
Close by an old orchard, where apples of June
Kept the throats of the choristers sweetly la tone.
A heriVs of wild roues this meadow concealed
From the fnrmors at work In a neighboring floM;
While the hum of the Does and the murmuring
brook,
Made a paradise quite ot this sweet little nook.
The first to srrive wns the Oarrler-dove,
Who brought the regrets of her friends In the
prove,
The Tioutcra and nuns, who had serious reason
lo give for thus slighting the Dall of the season,
Then camnthe Cock Robin with sweet Jenny Wren,
The Blsrkblrrta, a faintly party of ten,
The Thritf-hes in blown, and the Jaybird in blue
With wild Bob-o-linlium who makes such ado.
The King-bird and suit next arrived, I am told,
With the Oriole dressnd all in velvet and gold;
While ihe Cardinal thought it no shame to be seen
In humble attendance upon the gay queeu
The sweet Meadow Lark was the hostess that day,
H manners so gentle and temper so gayj
Tnougli 'tis whlxpered discreetly, half earnest,
half fun,
That her gi acs were learned at the court ot
the sun.
In strutted the Peacock, a vain, gandy bird,
And rendered himself by his airs quite absurd.
But the Daws in a co nor just whispered together,
And soon the poor croature had scarcely a feather.
In a bower of ivy screened off from the day,
The Owl and the Bat dozed the morning away;
Whilo the Woodpecker's tap and the Cat-bird's wild
scream
Failed to rouse the dull souls from their Indolent
dream,
Neath a wide-spreading locust the banquet was
spread.
Whose olusterlnz bloasom a rich odvff shed,
Where, seated on couches by Nature designed,
On the sweetest of berries they merrily diued.

The farmer that moment remembered his hay.)

Many toasts had been given, when over there flew
A pert little BpaiTow whom nobody knew.

Then into a sheltering thicket he dives.
The birds gave a flutter, and off they all flew

Children Under the Snow.
Far away tip in the north, on the
ehoros of that great frozen ocean lying
beyond Europe and Asia, you may
sometimes catoh eight (as I did once)
of a huge, gray, pointed thing, standing
all alone in the midst of the snowy
plain, just like an immense pear with
the stalk upward. I should have been
puzzled had I not seen a thin curl
creeping from the top of it ; but that
let me into the secret. This queer-looking
thing was a Snmoiede tent I
The tent of a Samoiedo is almost as
f implo an affair as that of an Arab. All
you have to do is to plant a dozen long
poles m the ground, slanted so as to
let their tops meet ; cover this frame
work with reindeer skins, leaving a hole
at the top to let out the smoke ; pile the
snow high up around the lower part to
keep off the wind the "house" is com
plete. But, outlandish as it looks, this little
burrow is worth something in a red
Russihu frost, which freezes the very
breath on one's mustache ; so I go right
up to the door (which is simply a thick
skin hanging over a hole in the side),
lift it, and step in.
The inside is certainly warm enough
rather too warm, in fact, being almost
as hot and choky as a bake-house.
There is a firo burning in the middle,
the smoke going anywhere to every
where; and beside it sat three things
one can hardly call them human figures
one a deal larger than the other two.
There being no light but the glare of
the firo, it is not easy for me to see
where I am going ; and the first thing I
do is to stumble over something which
seeuis niku u bum uug, unusually lull.
But it is not it is a child, wrapped or
rather tied up in a huge cloak of deer
skin, and rolling about tho floor like a
log.
In these out-of-the-way places, where
a man may go for days without seeing a
human face except his own, people call
upon each other without waiting to be
introduced, and my sudden entrance
does not seem to disturb my new
friends in the least. They greet me
cordiully enough, and bid me welcome
in Russian, which most of the Samoiedes
speak a little j and, seating myself on a
chest, I look about me.
As my eyes got U3t;d to the half-light,
I see that the group by tho fire consists
of a woman and two little girls, mullled
in skins from head to foot. Papa is
away somewhere with his sledge and
his reindeer, leaving mamma to mind
the house r.ud take care of the children.
Funny little thiugs they are, with great
round heads, and dark-brown skins, and
small, restless black eyes, and faces a3 if
somebody had sat down upon them;
but, queer as they look, they have learned
to make themselves useful already, for
they are hard at work stitching their
own clothes. They are not a bit shy,
and in another minute I have them
scrambling up into my lap, and wonder
ing at the ticking of my watch, which I
take out to show them, while they clap
their hands and shout, 'Pa i,pai I" which
is their word for "good.
The tent is not a very large one, but
every inch of its space has certainly
been made the most of. The floor is
carpeted with thick sheets of gray felt,
and littered with chests, sacks, baskets,
bark shoes, and bits of harness; while
hanging from the tent poles, or thrust
into the folds of the skins that cover
them, are a perfect museum of things
of every sort caps, pouches, fish
spears, knives, hatchets, whips and
last, but certainly not least, the face of
a baby, which has been thrust into a
kind of pocket in the skin, like a knife
into the sheath. I stoop to stroke the
little brown face, while the round e"es
stare wondenngly at me out of the folds
of the skin.
Meanwhile the lady of the house (or
rather tent), hospitable like all Ka'
moiedes, hastens to set before me some
black bread mixed with bark, and a
lump of terrifically strong cheese, made
of reindeer milk.
The reindeer supplies the Samoiedes
with plenty of other things beside
cheese; indeed, almost everything that
they have got comes from it in some
form or other. They eat reindeer
meat, they drink reindeer milk ; their
fish-spears are tipped reindeer horn ;
their clothes, and the very tents in
whioh they live, are made of reindeer
skin; the needles wherewith they
stitch them are of reindeer bone, and
the thread of reindeer sinew; and when
they wish to move from place to place,
it is the reindeer that draws them along
the Samoiede would be as badly off
without his reindeer, as the Arab with
out his camel.-- Wide Awake.

Will Education Held Subsistence I
An education, yes ; but what sort ot
an education f A bricklayer's eduoatiou,
an artisan's, a farmer's, would, indeed,
help him to earn living. A college
education would give him a social ad
vantage, but it would not, in itself, in
crease his chance of earning a living ; it
would rather diminish it. For, an way
pointed out in an interesting paper
lately published in this magazine, our
colleges do not, like the French and
German universities, instruct a young
man in the bread-winning pursuits ; the
American colleges are, on the contrary,
iustitutions for general culture. I do
not take up the question here of tho
amount ana value of the culture they
supply. The point for us to note is that
the educated young American who has
not a special education as a bread-winner
is worse off, as to his money pros
pects, than the young American who hwi
no college education at all. Dig he can
not, and to beg he is ashamed. Two of
the professions at least are fatally over
crowded. The United States, with a
population not greatly larger than that
of the German empire, graduates every
year five times as many physicians ; for
the German empire limits the nnmber
of its doctors, and we do not limit that of
ours. Very many of our physicians not
only wait years for practice( but never
get into practice at all. It is much the
same with the profession of law. In
both professions there are prizes for a
few, and failures, more or less com
plete, for tho many. The engineer
ing, mining, and other scientific
professions offer a somewhat better
chance, and public life, almost neglected
as a profession, will attract a better class
of young men from year to year. But
upon none of these, save in favored and
exceptional cases, as where a son suc
ceeds to his father's practice, can a
young mnn depend for a fortune, or even
for immediate support. They, too, offor
a certain social dignity. But as a rule
it is the laborer, artisan, or tradesman
that has the better chance of supporting
himself ; it is the educated man that
has, more frequently, to wait before he
can pay his way. If, therefore, we edu
cate our sons, it is all tho better reason
why we should provide, not indeed for
their independence, but some aid during
the years which they are likely to spend
in waiting before they can achieve their
position.
it is to be remembered, too, that
these years of waiting may become, with
such aid, years of scholarly or scientific
accomplishment, if not of money
making ; years of strengthened prepara
tion ; years that might introduce and
brighten a career, instead of wasted
years that cloud or spoil it. T. M.

The Warning.
In the summer of 1798, when sooiety
in Ulster was completely disorganized,
Door woman, too weary to go fur
ther, was set down with her baby and a
lartre trunk at the inn door. A night s
lodging was requested, and the tired
traveler placed herself by the fireside
while supper was being prepared. Evil
looking men moved about the room,
and she saw them cast many glances at
the trunk, which was unusually large for
a poor woman to possess. A good detd
of whispering in Irish took place,
which she, being a Derry woman, could
not understand ; but the host, as he
sharpened knives upon the board,
seemed to nod toward her in a threaten
ing manner. A cock just then strutted
np to her, plucked her dress with his
beak and ornvinA lniirlljr " Wvinof Viin
neck, the villain 1 ' said the host to the
servant girl. The bird flew up to the
rafters out of harm's way, but as soon
as the commotion was over he came
down again, and once more crowed
and plucked the traveler's gown.
Much alarmed, the poor woman
rose up, and said, as calmly as she
could : "I'll go a wee piece along the
road to look about me. Please take
care o' my trunk, an' I'll be back before
the supper's ready." No one attempting
to detain her, she left the inn with her
child. Walking quietly until out of
sight of the black lake and gaunt firs,
she began to run wildly along the road
toward the gap. A party of yeomanry
met her when she was almost exhausted,
and to them she told her story. It was
a time when all houses were liable to be
entered and examined. The inn was
thoroughly searched ; papers were found
implicating the host in tbe rebellion,
and human remains, as well as clothing,
silver and other valuables, discovered
on the premises, showed that travelers
had been made away with there. Tho
woman was conducted to her destina
tion by the yeomanry, and did not re
turn to Derry until the troublous times
were over. She lived to tell her great
grandchildren how the cock had saved
her life. Belaravia.
Telegraphic Disease. Shoemakers
who work in narrow and over-heated
rooms and in bent and constrained po
sitions are subject to consumption ; the
students having too much brain-work
and too little out-door exercise, tends
to dyspepsia; the farmer's wife, with
farm cares added to her family cares,
tends more than any other class of per
sons to insanity ; the clergyman even
has given his ministerial name to a
throat-ail, a disease that is caused by
bad (locution, undue exposure after
speaking, and especially to spiritual,
parochial and personal anxieties. These
re among the old-fashioned diseases.
New employments bring new ailments,
and among these is "the telegraphic dis
ease." Of course, it is only a small
percentage of persons that show the
morbid tendency of any employment.
High health, based on a vigorous consti
tution, will, with a modicum of care,
stand a very great amount of impru
dence and exposure. The tele
f,ruphio disease comes mainly to
females of a nervous organiz
ation the very class that is most
apt iu telegraphy. The cause of the
disease is close, unvarying attention.
There is no room for automatio work.
This acts steadily on a single part of
tho brain, aflects it injuriously, and
causes palpitations, vertigo, wakeful
ness, weakness of sight, and, later, de
pression, loss of memory, etc. There
are two courses open to persons em
ployed at telegraphy who find them
selves thus affeoted. The first is to
abandon the business. No present ad
vantage can compensate for nervous
disease. The seoond is to use their
leisure hours so as to give complete
rest to the exhausted portion of the
bruin. Company, amusement and en
tertaining books are specially healthful
in this disease. The patient should
also retire early, bo as, if possible, to
secure an abundance of sleep. As an
aid against wakefulness, divert the
blood from the head to the feet, by
heating the feet in hot water just before
retiring. Good, nourishing, easily
digested food is also necessary, with
oat-meal and unbolted wheat-meal as
part of the daily diet. Strong tea or
ooffe should not be nsed.
Earning Tier Own Living.
Two large cities full of people are as
tonished at the statement that a wealthy
and intelligent Brooklyn girl haa left
her home and old associations with the
intention of earning her own living by
hard work. This astonishment is so un
complimentary to the spirit of young la
dies in general that the particular lady
in question may be regarded as a proc
tical defender of her sex. Why a rich
lady, more than a rich man, should de
vote life to doing nothing is more than
anyone can explain. Thousands of ladies
already are devoting their time and
means to worthy enterprises merely for
the sake of having something definite, to
do, and if one of the sex chooses to
adopt downright hard work and to live on
the proceeds ot her industry, itisnobody's
business but her own. If more women
Who need fear no wolf at the door wore
to do likewise they would be the wiser
for it and the world be better. A great
deal of the unnecessary injustice and
suffering in the world oomes of the
ignorance of the well-to-do classes
about the lives of those who are socially
beneath them. The merchant, even he
of well-trained muscles, who spends an
hour or two in rolling barrels, or moving
heavy packages, learns exactly how it is
that his men do not sometimes move as
lively as ho would like to have them do;
he may even learn why the same men
sometimes slip around the corner and
invest a port of their small earnings in
whisky. If the Brooklyn girl referred
to goes into shop, factory or domestio
service, and with her earnings makes
ends meet, she will never afterward
make unnecessary trouble when shop
ping ; she will not wonder why girls look
pale and dress badly ; and she will be
unlikely to have trouble with servants
when she has a household of her own to
manage. After she has tired of her ex
periment, and returns to the enjoyment
of her own or her father's bank-book,
her money will go twice as far as before,
and whatever it buys will be thorough
ly enjoyed. If, later, Bhe marries, Bhe
will not be likely to complain if her hun
band does not earn as much as she may
desire to spend, and she will not run the
slightest risk of ruining the said husband
by extravagance. Not even for the sake
of learning so much, to devote mouths
r years to common, steady labor ; so
the world has no immediate prospect of
being regenerated by woman s knowl
edge of how her sisters live. New York

Yes, it is true, as you remark, that Mr.
Carlyle has been a diligent smoker of
clay pipes lor sixty years, and has done,
notwithstanding, a vast amount of ex
ceiient worn, it would ill become me
to speak of him or his writings, except
with profound respect. But, my dear
editor is he a cheerful man ? Has he
been generally a happy man ? Do his
later works show a better hope, a more
buoyant spirit, greater faith in man and
in his destiny, than those of his early
manhood? His lriends tell us that he
has been a prey to indigestion all his
days, and that he is the farthest possible
from being gay or jocund. His last not'
able utterance, entitled " Niagara and
After, sounded to me like the cry of an-
siinir, and as to his comments upou the
late war of secession, was there anything
ever written by a great man more per

John tiny and Gen. Cass.
In years gone by there dwelt in
Washington John Guy, a oharacter in
his way, in connection with whom Col.
Forney tells the following anecdote :
Ouy kept the National Hotel in
Washington, and among his guests was
Gen. Cass, then Senator from Michi
gan. Guy dressed like Cass, and, though
not as portly, his faoe, including the
wart, was strangely similar. One day a
Western friend of the house came in
after a long ride, dusty and tired, and,
walking np to the office, encountered
Gen. Cass, who was quietly standing
there. Mistaking him for Guy, he
slapped him on the shoulder, and ex
claimed, "Well, old fellow, here I ami
The lost time I hung my hat np in
your shanty one of your olerks sent me
to the fourth story ; but, now that I have
got hold of you, I insist upon a lower
room."
The General, a dignified personage,
taken abaok by this startling salute,
coolly replied : "Yon have oommitted a
mistake, sir; I am not Mr. Guy; I am
Gen. Cass, of Michigan," and angrily
turned away. The Western man was
shocked at the unconscious outrage he
had committed ; but before he had re
covered from his mortification Gen.
Cass, who had passed around the office,
confronted him again, when, a seoond
time mistaking him for Guy, he faoed
him and said : " Here you are at last I I
have just made a devil of a mistake; I
met old Cass, and took him for yon,
and I'm afraid the Michigander has
gone off mad." What Gen. Cass wonld
have said may well be imagined, if the
real Guy had not approached and res
cued the innocent offender from the
twice-assailed and twice-angered states
man. The Eagle and Cat.
It is well known that eagles some'
times carry off hares; they are also
said to be exceedingly partial to the
flesh of dogs, and occasionally they
pounce upon poor grimalkin. Une in
the North of Scotland suddenly came
down upon a oat, and bore it away to
her nest. The injuries inflicted by the
clutch of the eagle, and the unusual
mode of traveling, so confounded poor
puss that she exhibited no signs of
life, and was accordingly left for dead
by the eagle with heryoung ones. But
soon after the eagle had left the nest
the oat revived, and, having killed the
eaglets, made a hearty meal of one of
them. She then made a harried re
treat, and effected her escape without
further injury.
A TERRIBLE CBIME.
A Tragedy Which Fosnemeai All the
Elemental but Krone of tbe Mystery
of the Charley Boh Case.
, From the London Times.)
Particulars of an atrocious crime,
committed a short time ago, and pub
lished in the English papers, has espe
cial interest to those who made the Char
ley Boss case a study, as the confession
of the murderer shows that in this, as in
the American case, the object of the
criminals was to obtain a large amount
ol money as ransom.
William Marianus DeJongh, clerk to
the Minister of Colonies at The Hague,
confesses to murdering a schoolboy, Ma
rius Bogaarat, son of a former Secretary
General, now living a retired life. The
murderer laid his plans cunningly, and,
before securing the boy, had written a
letter to the father, asking for 75,000
guilders, or $30,000, for the surrender of
his son, but how and where the ransom
was to bo paid was not clear, though it is
supposed DeJongh had accomplices.
The confession of how the murder was
oommitted was told by the prisoner to
his sister, to whom he was devotedly at
tached. DeJongh wept bitterly while
giving an account of his motives and the
circumstances under which the murder
took place.
On Sept. 23, before he committed the
crime, and before he had even posses
sion of the boy, he wrote the letter re
ferred to, demanding the ranBom on
a certain date. The Tetter was written
in the Cafe St. Hubert, from where he
went to Williams Park, where Mr. Bo
gaarat resided. It woe 2 o'clock in the
afternoon, and Mrs. Bogaarat had just
left her house and driven to Hehevmgeu.
DeJongh went to the Bheinish railway
station, and, having directed the letter,
he put it into the postoffice letter-box at
the station. lie lett and toon a cab,
but, as the cabman was asleep when
DeJongh entered the vehicle, he did not
notice his face. DeJongh drove to
tho school, and asked for young Marcus
Bogaarat, a fine-looking boy, 13 years
of age.
"Do you know me?" he asked of the
boy.
"To be sure," the latter replied ; "I
have often met you in the park."
"Now, your mamma wishes me to
fotch you from school," said DeJongh.
"Did she not, then, go to Schevin
gen ?" inquired the lad.
" YeB," replied DeJongh, seeing that
the boy knew his mother's intentions,
" but she told me she would, on her re
turn, wait for us at a peasant's house on
the Downs near the town."
The boy then fetched his school arti
cles, asked permission to leave school,
and accompanied DeJongh in a cab.
When they arrived on the Downs,
the murderer sought a quiet place,
where he threw the boy on the ground,
and bound his hands and feet with a
cord bought that morning.
"Remain here," he said to Marcus,
" till I return with the money I have de
manded from your father. Stop your
crying if you do not want to be killed."
He covered the youth with his coat,
and intended to go, but the boy cried so
loudly that he returned, fancying he
heard footsteps. DeJongh took his
sword out of his walking-stick, and
killed the child, stabbing him seven
times in the breast.
In a very agitated stato of mind, the
human fiend fled to Schevingen, washed
his hands at the sea shore, and returned
to tho Hague, altor having thrown away
the sword-stick in a little channel by
the roadside. DeJongh was arrested
on the Downs, whither he returned
pnrlv t.Vin following Tnorninrr, Vint, ofttr
being confronted with the coachman
and other witnesses, was liberated. He
was arrested afterward on his own con
fessiou, and, after tho avowal of the
crime, his sister asked what motives he
had for the horrible deed. " I saw our
father die in poverty. As for myself,
could make my way in India, but I had
a placo in the same office where father
worked, with no better prospects than
he had. What would be my mother's
lot and yours ? I wished to Becuro to
her a comfortable old age, and, when
heard, from a family who are acquainted
with his circumstances, that Mr. iso
gaaiat was a very rich man, I was seized
with a desire to constrain him to give me
mnnflv bv Rt.pnlino' fttvav his onlv son.
I did not intend to kill the child, except
in oase he should possibly become my
accuser. My only motive was my wish
for money. Nobody assisted me at the
time or at the murder.

excitement in Holland.
