The'vernal rains were falling fast, -As through a little village passed A youth who bore a hickory pole, And oxen under his control "Pike's Peak !" His brow was glad, his eye were bright, Nor to the left nor to the right He turned,but onward kept with steady course, And shouted till his voice was hoarse dike's Peak !' He left his happy home by night, And toward the west he took iiis fit" Above, the moon in beauty shone, And from his lips escaped a groan "Pike's Peak !" hi; "You'd better stay," some oid men said, "You'll surely loose your wits or head ; The stormy prairie's long and wide," But loud that headstrong youth replied "Pike's Peak!" "Beware of svindlers, cheats, and thieves, Beware of those who would deceive;" This was the old man's last advice, To whom the youth said, in a trice "Pike's Peak!" At length, the barren plains he reached, His bread most gone, his form well bleached; But still he groaned that fervent prayer, Which did not go far through the air "Pike's Peak!" A traveler by the Platte was found, Flat as a p.incake, on the ground, Still clinging to his hickory pole, And on the ground could scarcely roll "Pike's Peak!" There by the diggings, cold and gray.

The old farm-house wore a quiet, pleas- ; ant look, as tbo setting sun gilded its small windows, over which tbo luxuriant ' gr-apo vines wore carefully trained. In i the open door sat the farmer, with a lit tle morocco covered book in his band, on which his attention had been fixed for the last hour. lie was a man of method i and order old Richard Heath and a- j side from his regular account books, which he always set down in this little book, in the simplest manner possible, all bis ex penses, (no very complicated account by ; the way,) and all he had received during the year, in the metal, as he said, not by the way of trade The last account he bad just reckoned up, the result was highly satisfactory, if one might judge from tbe pleasant expres sion of bis faeo as bo turned to his wife and addressed her by her pretty old fash i ioned name. 'Millici'iit,' said he 'this has been alucky year. How little wo thought, when we ( moved to this place twenty-five years a 1 go, that we should ever get five hundred ! dollars a year out of the rocky, barren ; farm.' 'It does pay for a good deal hard work,' i said -he, 'sec, too, how different things look from what they did then.' j Now I am going to figure up how j much we have spent,' said Heath; 'don't make a noie with your knitting needles 'cause it nuts me out.' 'The wife laid by her knitting in perfect : good humor; and yazed over the broad, rich fields of waiving grain, which grew J so tali around the laden apple trees, that they looked like massive pile of foliage. Hearing her owu name kindly spoken, led her own thoughts far back, to the past; for after a lapse of twenty five years the sim ple sound of the name the bore in her youth means more to a wife, than all the epithets of dearest love, and darling o lavishingly offered in a long pa:t court- j ship. ' Very pleasant was the retrospect to Millicent Heath. The picture of the past had in it rough places, and somo hard trials, but no domestic strife or discon tent marred its sunny aspect. There were smiling faces on it happy children' faces, without which no life picture is beautiful. Soft blue eyes shone with un clouded gladness, and wavy hair floated carelessly over unwritten foreheads. She forgot, for a moment, how they were 1 changed, and almost fancied herself again the young mother, and tiny hands nestled , there as of old. The illusion vanished quickly, and she figbed as fhe thought of her youngest born, the reckless boy who had left her three years before for a home on the sea. One only had tidings reached her of the wand'-rer. The letter spoke of hardships and home sickness in that light and care less way that reached tho mother's heart mori surely than repining and complaint. To know that he suffered with a strong : heart, with noble and unyielding resolu tion, gave her a feeling of pleasuro not unmingled with pride. ( 'He will surely come back,' murmured the affectionate mother to herself; 'and I read the paj er so carefully every week, tltst if it fays anything about tbe ship Alfred sailed in, I shall be sure to see it.' 'Mis. Heath,' said her husband, inter rupting her meditations somewhat rude ly, 'we have spent thirty dollars more than usual this year; where can it have , gone to V The new harness,' suggested Mrs. Heath; 'that don't come every year, you ! know.' j 'We had the carriage fixed up when ! you bought the harness,' continued his i wife. I . 'Well, that was eight dollars, that's 1 twenty-eiht we don't spend every year i but the other two, where can they have ! gone 7' Glancing his eye over tho pages of tbo memorandum book, he continued : J I'll tell you what 'tis, the newspaper j oosts just two dollars, and we can do with f out it. It isn't anything to eat, drink or I wear. I don't do anything with it, and j you lap it away up in the chamber. It I may as well be left out as not, and I'll stop my subscription right away.' 1 Oh ' Rfiwl his -wifr 'enn Hnn'l Irnnw I ! fcow mu(jh j get b tbe ue r X hayc a Borfc'of )a(1 j- see you take it out of your coat and lay j it on the kitoben mantlepiece, just as I ' do when some of the children come home; and when I am tired I sit-down with my ! knitting work and read I can knit just as el henT am reading, and feel so contented. I don t believe Queen Victo- . cd t0 gtop tuc conversation. 'I shall take the paper,' remarked his wife, 'if I have to go out washing to pay for it.' This was spoken angrily, but so firmly that Mr. Heath noticed it, though by no means remarkable for discernment in most matters. It sounded so different from hcr usual quiet 'as you think best,' that be actually stopped a moment to oon- sider whether it was at all likely she would do as she said. Mr. Heath was a kind husband, as that infinite description is generally under stood; that is he did not beat his wife, and always gave her enough to eat. More than that, he had a certain regard for her happiness which always mado him feel ashamed of bis decision, but like many other men who have more obstinacy than wisdom, he couldn't bear to retract any thing, and above all to be convinced he was wrong'by a woman. However with a commendable wish to removo the unhapiness he caused, he sug gested that as tbo papers were carefully filed, and she bad found them interesting she oould read them over again, begin ning at January, and taking one a week clear through tho year they would just come out even, he concluded, as if it were a singular fact that they should do so. Notwithstanding the admirable propo sition, be still felt some uneasiness. It followed him as he walked up the pleasant lawn to the pasture, and it made hira speak more sharply than was his want, if the cows stopped whilo he was driving them home, to crop the grass where it looked greenest and sweetest on the sun ny slope. It troubled him till be heard bis wife call him to soppor, io such a cheerful tone that be concluded she didn't care much about the newspaper after all. About a week after this, as Mr. Heath was mowing one morning, bo was surpris ed to see his wife coming, dressed as if for a visit. 'I'm going,' said she 'to spend the day with Mrs. Brown; I leave a plenty for you to eat;' and so saying she walked rapidly on. Mr. Heath thought about it just long enough to say to himself, 'she don't go visitin' to stay all day, once a year hard ly and it's strange sho should go in hay time.' Very long tbo day seemed to him; to go in for luncheon, dinner and supper, and to have nobody to speak to; and to find everything so still. Tbe old clock ticked stiller than usual be thought, the brood of pretty white chickens, that were almost always peeping round the door, had wandered off somewhere, and left it stiller yet; he even missed the busy click of the knitting needle that was apt to put him out so, when he was doing any fig- unng. I am glad,' be said to himself, as he began to look down the road at sunset, 'that Millincent don't go visitin' all the time as somo wimen do; thero she is just coming.' 'How tired you look,' said he as she came up; 'why didn't you speak about it, and I'd have harncst up and come after you.' 'I am not very tired,' she answered; but her looks belied her; indeed, her bus band declared she looked tired for a day or two after. What was his amazement to see her go away the next Tuesday in the same man ner as before. To his great dissatisfaction, everything seemed that day to partake of his wife's. propensity for going from home. A man don't want cold food in bay time, said he, as be sat down to dinner. In the grum bling mood, ho recounted tbo mishaps of the morning, which seemed to have been much after the manner set forth in a oer taiu legend of olden time; for he embel lished his recital by allusion to. Tbe sheep's in tbo medow, The cows are in the corn.' Adding that they wouldn't have been there, if Mrs. Heath had been at borne, be cause she'd have seen tbcm before they got in and halloed. She would have seen the oxen too, bofore they got across tho river, and saved him tbe trouble of getting them back. But after tracing all these unto ward events to her absence he said to him self consolingly. 'I guess she won't go any more, she always was a homo body. Mrs. Heath did go again though, and again, and the day sho went for tho fourth time, her husband took counuel with him self as to what he should do to 'stop her gading.' Seated on tbe door step in the shade of tbo old trees, he spent an hour or two in devising ways and measures, talking aloud all the time, and having the satisfaction of heariognobody dispute hira. 'It U bard to think of her getting to be a visitin' woman,' said be, 'and it's olear it ain't right. Keep her at home, I've read in the Biblo, (old Richard's Bible knowledge was somowhat confused, quo tation varied slightly from tho scriptural phrase, 'keepers at home,' but it Bays too, he added, with the true sincere man, 'that husbands must set great 6tore by their wives and treat them well. I won't scold Millicent, I'll harness up and go for her to night, and comin' home I'll talk it all over with her, and tell her bow bad it makes mo feel, and if that won't do, I'll something else.' In accordance with his praiseworthy resolution, be might have bcon seen, about sunset, hitching bis horse at Mr. Brown's door; for straDgely enough, Mrs. Heath's visit had all been made at tbo same place. Going up to the door, he stopped in a mazement at seeing bis wife iu the kitch en, just taking off a great woolen wash apron, and putting down her sleeves which bad been rolled for washing. He listen ed and heard her say, as she took somo money from Mrs. Brown, 'It won't be bo that I can do your washing again.' 'It ha9 been a great favor to have you do it whilo I have been poorly,' said Mrs. Brown, and I'm glud to pay you for ifc. This makes four times, and here's two j dollars. 'Tis just as well that you can't come again, for I think I shall.be well e 'nbugh to do it myself.' 'Two dollars, just the price of tho news Jpoper,' exclaimed Mr. Heath, as the truth flashed across him. Bather a silent ride they had home, till at last be said : 'I never was so ashamed in my life 1' 'Of what!' asked his wifo. 'Why, to have you go out wasbin'; I ain't bo poor as that comes to.' 'Well, T don't know,' replied his wife, when a man is too poor to take a newspa per his wife ought not to feel above go ing out washing.' Nothing more was said on tho subject at that time, though some ill feeling ling ered in the hoart of each. The making up was no mawkish 6cene of kissing, em bracing and crying, nucb as romance wri ters build their useless fabrics witb, but as Mrs. Heath was finishing her house hold duties for the night, she said, quietly: 'I don't think I did quite right, Rich ard.' 'I don't' think I did either responded the husband; and so the spark was quen ched which might have become a scathing flame blighting all tho domestic peace under their humble roof. At last the long voyage is ended, and the sailors talk only of a new home now. They talk of those they are to meet, of their wives and children, to whom tbeir thoughts have so often wandered during these three year's absence. They wan der if the young sailor, Alfred Heath, who lies so sick, will ever see home again, and with tbeir rough tones subdued almost to gentleness, they speak of his axicty to see bis mother. He is so hopelessly ill that bis hoart is now where tho worn spirit ever turns in its hour of bitterest sorrow, or tho ap proach to the unseen end to God and his mother. Faintly as his heart beats, it still ibrobs with earnest desire for life. Dim as his keen eye bas become, he fan- oies it would brignten once more at the sight of his mother, and hU failing mind become cleared oould be lean on her breast. With folded hands the young sailor prays; his words are confused and indistinct to those who listen, but all clear and earnest to the Great listener above. And when the ship had reached her dis tant port, and mingled voices are all a round the sick sailor, his comrades boar him comfortable to a home but better to bim than tbe rocking vessel in tbo midst of the sounding sea. 'Now, if I could sec mother,' be murmured to the strangers around him. She is sitting by the vine-covered win dow patiently reading the shipping jour nal, and thinking meanwhile, of her ab sent boy; thinking it was time for bim to return, and hoping that be will novcr go back to sea again. How quick tbo words catch her eye : Arrived, ship Banner, Love ! And it was weeks ago; ho could have been home by this time; he will come to night, she said iovfully, as she went to communicate the good nows to her bus band. They watohed for him in vain that night and then Mrs. Heath suggested that no mother ever failed to suggest when tbo long absence of a child was unaccounted for be must be sick; when night after night passed, and they neither saw nor heard anything of Alfred, her anxiety would let her rest no longer. 'We will eo for him, or at least go where wo may near oi mm, sam iur. xieatn, who now, as anxious as bis wife, readily assented. sadly unstrung and discordant!

Little care had bo received in the orow- dod boarding bouse. Thero was none of tbo neatness and order that show better in a siok room than anywhero else. Rough hands had roughly tended him, and pale and death-like as be looked it seemed as if it mattered little what care ho had now.

No one so joyful as Mrs. Heath, who, after being gladened by hearing Alfred say he would never go to sea again, ex pressed his opinion of newspapers in gen eral, and his own newspaper in particular, in this wise : 'I am so glad, Millicent, that you took that paper, for I count a paper just the most necessary thing io a family. Wo bhould never have had a boy hero strong and well, if it had not been for it. It is an excellent thing and I shall subscribe for it as long a? I live. God's Discipline with Men. , In a time of war, when men left their dwellings, there lay unused, in an old man sion; a stately instrument of music a pi ano. The dust covered it. and little bv lit tle the weather contracted and expanded it till the wood had cracked. The differ-' ent strings of the instrument were out of ; tunc with each other; so that not one of them was right. By-and-by peace was declared, and the long exiled owner re turned to his house. On coming homo, looking about bim and seeing everything out of order, he cleansed the kitchen, cleansed tbe parlor, cleansed the various rooms through the house, and at last he says, "I will have this instrument put in order." He sends for a tuner, who comes and looks at it and says, "A noble in strument, indeed; by one of the best ma kers!" Ho opens the lid, and the dusti rites up in clouds, "badly neglected ; iocat starcb, water, lead, iron, and chalk, but a noble instrument!"

The1 adultertation of Pood. The subject of adulteration, as relate? what we cat and drink, is attracting to more than ordinary attention on both sides of the Atlantic. Wo have noticed it again anti aga;Dt and siQcerciy trosg that the attention of those immediately concerned, tho consumers as welt as the sellers, will be sufficently aroueed to n duce the adoption of some remedy. Ac cording to the New York Knickerbocker r tho articles enumerated are adulterated as follows : Iu flour there is alum, bone dust, pow dered flints, and plaster of ParJsI In bread, besides all these ingredients, thero is chalk, pipe-clay, carbonate of ammonia,, sulphate of copper and sulphate of zinc.
