A rKETTY POEM OF IHK W.Ul hi n. a. t todd a no. I walked the streets at midnight, . But my tliounliLs were far away, Far my leaf of light, now withered, Vaj green again with May. The snows of twenty winters Had vanished from my brow, : , And I (ah me !) looked forward, . A I looked backward now. AVhy bhould I not look forward? I knew my soul was strong ; ! knew there was within me The might there lain song My heart was liht and friendly ; I loved my fellow-men, And 1 loved, how much ! my comrade. For I had comrades then. Where,are those dear old follows ? Ah! whither have they flown? I aiked niyself at midnight, As I walked thertreets alone. There was Fritz, the Irish singer. And Fred, the tender heart. And Harry, who lived for Woman, And Tom, who lived for Art. Poor Fritz's song is over, And the heart of Fred is still ; One went down at Yorktown, The other at Malvern Kill. Wrapped in the blue they fou?ht in, Thev buried them where they lay ; And elsewhere Tom and Harry, Whi wore, poor lads! the gray. As I walked the streeta at midnight. And rememliered the awful years That snatched my comrades from me. My eyes were tilled with tears. 1 thought of Moody buttles, Where thousands such us they Had met and killed each other For wearing blue aud gray. Of happy homes that were darkened. Of hearths that were desolate, tf tender hearts that were broken, Of love that was turned to hate, 1 pitied the wretched living ; 1 think I did the d"ad ; I know 1 sighed for Harry, And diold a tear.fi.r Fred. " l'oor boys !" 1 aid. Nut pondering What was, and might have been (What I am in the sere leaf, And they were in the green.) 1 pitied my dead no lunger ; I did not tare to. No. They went wheu they were summoned Before, they could not go. When we know what life and death are. We shall then know what is best ; Meanwhile we live and labor Their labor done, they rest. The earth lies heavy on them, But they do not complain ; They do not miss the sunshine, They do not feel the rain. If they are ever conscious, ti. In that long sleep of theirs, It is when, ist tlie winter. We feel the first spring airs. When the birds from tropic countries. Come buck again to ours. And where of late were snow drifts, The grass was thick with flowers. Such flowers as will to-morrow Be scattered where they lie, The blue and gray together, Beneath the same sweet sky. No staii upon their manhood. No memory of the pat Except the common valor That made us one at last. Harper's H'ciiy. .11 LIAS CHOICK 4,Don't you be satisfied with being nothing but a farmer, Alfred, ' my son. A farmer,' ugh ! no young man of any spirit will be content to settle down to the dull, stupid, unpopular life of a farmer. Set your mark high er, my son." '! wonder what Caleb is going to make of himself. I suppose a doc tor, or lawyer, or something of that kind. He likes books and 1 don't. "I don't want you to. my 6on. Merchants are the greatest men now-a-days. They are rich, and their wives and families dress like queens, and live in great style. Think how we might have lived if your lather had been a merchant instead of a farmer. I'gh ! I hate a farm and all there is about it." "Caleb says if his father had lived he would have been a farmer. He minus mere is nouiing 10 compare with it" "Let him think so, Alfred. But you iook nigner. j Fpone- xo your ; uncle to find a place for -ou in some store in the city, and you know how Abbot Lawrence and hundreds of others became rich and prosperous from poor clerks as they were when they began, and you may do so, too. Then you cau hope to get a lady, for a wife, for what lad will marry a farmer? I want to see my son be somebody in the world. How happy I should be to have you drive out here to the old farm with your wife, a fine lady. I?ut I hope your father will be induced to sell the old farm afer a few years and live in the vil lage among folks, so we can be some body in our old age at least." "Caleb is alwayH talking about what a charming place this is, when he is home from college." "Well, let him ; he hasn't a very aspiring mind. lie lacks ambition. Anybody can see that," for he is al ways carried away with vulgar no tions. He will spend hours watching the lambs racing around inthe past ure, or take great interest in sitting down with the chickens and young turkeys around him. Then he's in love with the trees and wild flowers; anything weeds, rocks, woods, and such common things, take his fancy. He neverll amount to much, no matter how much learning he may ' get Your says be won't have much ! money left when he gets trough col lege. Your father has one good trait. He knows enough to feather his own nest while taking care of other folks' property. So I hope we shall be able to leave the old farm gome day." - All the hopes and aspirations of Mrs. Thurber were realized in a shorter time than" she dared to hope for. . '. , . ' ' Her brother succeeded in getting Alfred into a very good position in a large etore in the city, and, yielding finally to her importunity, Mr. Thurber consented to let the old farm and move into the village with his wife and daughters. ' Caleb, mentioned above, was the - i ESTABLISHED, 1827. SOMERSET, PA., WEDNESDAY. eon of a distant relative, of Mrs. Tn a lawyer of considerable wealth. The father and mother both died when Caleb was about twelve years old, and Mr. Thurber became his guardian and took him.into bis fam ily. The father had expressed the wish that if Caleb showed an incli nation to books he should be sent to college, then left free to choose whatever pursuit he might best like. Perhaps no moTe of the young man's patrimony 6tuck to the fingers of Mr. Thurber than the law would allow ; but certain it is, he was Bure to make the most he could out of the funds intrusted to his hands, and the ingenuity of his wife not unt're- Sucntly aided him in adding some ollars to the yearly claim. The next year Caleb weut to col lege, the farm was let, and the family removed to the village, a prosperous place of wealth and enterprise, and quite given to aristocratic notions and ambitions of the city ways and styles. The first year the farm was let for two hundred and fifty dollars. The second year it had to be let to a new tenant, as the first moved west, con tent with having made the most he could from the place. The second year it wan rented for one hundred and uevtnty-five dollars, so badly was everything about the place left out of repair and at loose ends. The farm fared but little better the sec ond and third year, and at the end of that time a new tenant had to be found, who rufustd U give over one hundred and titty dollars a year and put in repair what was left dilapida ted by his predecessors. This sum was not very much more than the taxes, which had increased while the rent had decreased. Alfred had meanwhile greatly prospered, lie had gained the con fidence and esteem of his employers and had been advanced, till he held a prominent place in the large es tablishment with a very good sal ary. Ilia motlrers brightest visions were even more than realized. lit had become a city gentleman far, far above any luckless, low minded wight who was content to be a farm er. He dressed in the highest style, ami his lofty, genteel ways were the delight of his mother, and one holi day a fine carriage drove up to Mr. Ihurbera door and Altred stepued out and handed out a young lady dressed like.himself, in the very pink and blossom of fashion. His moth er's heart was full. Her ambition was just about satisfied as her son introduced to her 'Miss Hawkinson', the daughter of one of his wealthy employers. Meanwhile the orphan Caleb had graduated from college, but what were college honors compared to the city triumphs of Alfred? He had been wont in days past to consider Caleb 3 his superior but he now ncarcely deigned to notice him. Caleb held to his love of those tilings which Alfred's mother considered vulnar. He had expected to find himself the poetefsor of many more hun dreds than was turned over to him when - he attained hia majority, which was very soon after he grad uated from college. He supposed everything just and generous had lieen done, and, in fact, only what was claimed to be right though the sum was large was allowed to the guardian, whose account, had it been more carefully and strictly looked into, would have been found to have manv charges of items that it would have been hard for the guardian to account for sat isfactorily. However, Caleb was disposed to take quietly what was parsed over to him and make the best of it. Ilia superior scholarship at once opened to him an excellent oppor tunity as a teacher, which he at once accepted ; though had he been possessed of tlie funds he had sup posed himself entitled to, he design ed to have given himself to agri cultural pursuits at once. L'ut our disappointments and the breaking in upon our plans by a wise I'.-ovidence. who knows far wtrT what is most suitable lor us jthan we ourselves do, prove, if we accept the way open to us with un- faltering trust, our highest good With this feelimr Caleb accented the positiou offered - Lim, . and for three years gave himself to the du ties of a teacher in a high school. His salary the first year was moder ate; but when his capacity and ability became known, hia compen sation was made, even generous greater than he himpelf had antici pated. ".Villi the - people of Thornville, success was the highest virtue, or, if not a virtue, it stood in their minds as of greater value than what silly Ipoople called virtue, morality or culture. Allred lhurber was spoken of everywhere ns a model for young men. "He was a lucky fellow," in Thornville parlance, and smiles and marks of respect were showered up on him from all whom he deigned to notice. The proud heart of his mother was full to overflowing. Her ambi tion knew no bounds. Her eldest daughter, Lucy, was 6con engaged to one of the clerks in the same es tablishment with Alfred. He was very much like Alfred, dashy, fine looking and genteel in his manners and ways. Lucy was much like her mother, ambitious and fond of show and pa rade, and when her marriage took place, it was made a very notable affair and she went to grace a fine city home. But the nexfdaughter,"Tulia, was a very different girl. Her beauty was less striking, but yet vastly more at tractive to any who could feel the poweT of real excellence, beauty and sweetness combined. Her mother felt she was a trump card in her hands, and resolved that he who received the hand of Julia should be a king of wealth and pop ularity, who Bhould add to her own qualities and importance in the eyes of the world. ' But in this she was destined to a great disappointment just as her AUGUST 15, 1883. hopes were on the point of realiza tion. Alfred and his wife came one day from the city, in their usual style with driver and span, and with them came a gentleman whom it will hardly do to call young, though some years this 6ide of forty. He was a distant relation of Alfred's wife and a member oi a great firm in New York City, which was amoug the leading houses in that city. He was tall, slightly bald, but very fine looking, courtly in his manners and address, and intelligent in the ways of the world. He was looked upon by the fam ily and the people of Thornville, for he spent several days there, as quite a lion. The very thing which Mrs. Thur ber desired did occur; Mr. Hurlburt fell deeply in love with J ulia, but in credible to relate, Julia was as cold and distant toward him as though it were impossible for her heart ever to feel the soil passion of love. Her mother bore it for a time in silence but when she saw no signs of the giving away of the icy fetters which seemed to hold her heart and soul she took her to task, and demanded to know what she could mean by such conduct. Julia made no reply till she had gone to her private desk and took therefrom a letter, and handed it to her mother to read ; as she glanced at the name of the writer and ran her eye over the contents her coun tenance changed, her face became red, and the tire Hashed from her eyes. " "Julia!" she exclaimed, "what do you mean by holding correspond ence with one so much beneath you?" "You have not always thought him so, mother." "Well, you know, child, that af fairs with us have changed within a few years, and though Caleb ia well enough in his place, I will teach him better than to aspire to the hand of a daughter of mine." "You will do no such thing, mother," said Julia, calmly looking her mother full in the face. "Do you mean to intimate to me that you are going to refuse the suit of Mr. Hurlbert and accept this worthless boy, Caleb?" "I do not intimate only, mother, but 1 will say plainly, I shall never accept any intimacy from Mr. Hurl bert, of whom I know no hurt ; but Caleb has my heart now, and had it ever since I knew I had a heart made to live." "You silly, foolish girl, I com mand you at once to put a stop to all such silly notions. 1 will have none of it. Mr. Hurlbert is just the match I have been hoping for you, and I am not going to be disappoint ed by any silly notions of yours." "Mother, did you marry father be cause your mother loved him, or took a tancy to him, or because you loved him ?" "That is no matter of yours ; it is your duty to obey your mother, who knows what is best for you a great deal better than you, a girl of eigh teen." "I expect to live with tlie man I choose for my husband, and not you. You had your choice of a man and I expect the same privilege myself. If there is anything to be said against the character of the one I choose it is my duty to listen to you, as my mother, but in nothing else, and you have no right to dictate or interfere further." "Julia Thurber! Iam astonished and pained to the heart's core to hear you talk so. Just see what a life you turn your back on in refus ing Mr. Hurlbert, and what a sad fate you choose for yourself, in ac cepting so simple and worthless a character as Caleb 1 hornton. "That, mother, is vour estimation of the two men and tlie two posi tions, not mine." 'Just bok at tne position of your sister Luc3", and the society she moves in, and the style she lives in. 1 should think you would be asham ed to bring such disgrace on your brother and sister as to condescend to marry a man whose highest am bition is to be a farmer. Julia Thurber a farmer's wife! Just think of the degradation and disgrace to the family, Julia! "Mother, it is wholly useless for us to talk further upon this subject. I prefer to follow the dictates of my own heart if there is nothing against Caleb Thornton only that he pur poses to become a farmer, than even you, whom I never before have re fused to obey." "Yon stubborn, wilful child," said Mrs. Thurber, asshe rushed passion ately Irom the room. During the lost year of Caleb's services in the high school, his eye caught the advertisement of tlie Thurber farai for sale, as it stated, "at a bargain." That, of all places on earth, was j the one most desirable to Caleb, and it had within a few weeks become more especially so, as within that time Julia Thurber had accepted the offer of his hand and heart, and in language which convinced him that his love was fully reciprocated. There was a friend of his in Thornville to whom he wrote to as certain the lowest sum the Thurber farm was to be had for, and found it was ; several hundred dolors less than he had anticipated, and, as it was within his means, he at once se cured it When it was known he was in tending to leave the school at the 1 end of the year, tne authorities made even a higher bid for his services another year; and as he was still young and Julia still under twenty, they both thought it best for him to continue and accept the proffered salary. The Thurber farm had, to one who j could appreciate the beauties of land scape and almost everything attract ive in nature, more than ordinary attractions. It was located at the southeasterly foot of a mountain, but this was only the woodland part of the farm. The road ran along to the eastward of the house, extending up a long but not difficult hill, the top of which was crowned with tim ber. Directly in front of the home, forty or fifty rods distant was a large, beautiful pond, and across the garden on the southwesterly side .Of J) AJLvJL (Lib of the house ran a small brook of clear soft water, fed by never failing streams in the woodland part of the farm. In the front of the house was the principal field of the farm. This was a broad plain gently sloping to ward the pond, and containing from fifteen to twenty acres, with scarcely a stone or foot of waste space about it. There were beside the long past- j ure two or three smaller enclosures, alternately used for tillage or pastur-1 age. The house was a roomy, old fashioned farm house, such as is seen everywhere in New England, and needs no further description. The barns and outbuildings were roomy and good, but, like the house was somewhat out of repair. But the last year's salary as teacher would more than pay for all necessa ry improvements. During the last year prior to the marriage of Julia and Caleb, the great banking house of Thalgonburg it Hurlburt hud failed and gone into bankruptcy, aud this quite reconcil ed Mrs. Thurber to the choice of Julia. But before many years were passed other houses failed. One of those periodical returns of disaster to trade and business closed up many establishments once thought firm as the hills, and that to which Allred belonged was one of them Both Alfred aud Lucy's husband were reduced almost to penury, it was hard for their wives to give up the style in which they had lived. Alfred was obliged to accept some .position in a manufacturing estab lishment to keep himself and family from starvation. Lucy's husband for a time managed to keep up the extravagance of his household which was quite a mystery as no one knew of his having any visible source of income. But the secret at length came out. He had become a coun terfeiter and a forger, and to escape the penalties of the law compelled to flee the country, and Lucy was left to her choice between the poor-hou.-e and her father's house, .and to this, broken hearted, she came with her two children. Alfred no longer came to Thorn ville in a carriage with a span and driver. Thin and care worn with uncongenial toil, and worse than all a thousand times, with the com 1-. t t c r piaints anu reproacnes oi a wi;e whom he could no longer support in extravagance and fashion, and who, in consequence, showed him too plainly that she really never knew or felt for him that love which alone can be a man's solace in the hour of trial and adversitv "Ah." said he to Caleb one dav.as he came to the old home now almost a paradise of comfort and thrift, "what a fool have I been to be allur ed from real comfort and a 1 tie worth having, to become a slave in the city."

"Caleb, it can not be; my wife would rather die than leave the city, and so 1 must stay and go the daily treadmill round for my daily bread and a place to lay my head, and that none of the best or happiest Caleb would have been willing to have Julia s father and mother re turn to the old farm and live with them, for their means of subsistence had well nigh run out, but Julia her self objected. She knew the temper and disposition of her mother to well to have her with her, though she was perfectly willing to support them where thev were. "I prefer," said Julia to Caleb "to bring up our children without in terference, and you know grandpar ents are often disposed to interfere in behalf of their grandchildren to their disadvantage. We can make them just as comfortable where they are. Favored the I'lainiifl".

"I have been talking it over with my wife, and we have about concluded to fix up the house as a summer resort and stay at home, tehe thinks she can tuie a hatchet and break some of the springs ot the bed, and shorten up the bed slats so they will lall down, and put some old caboage stumps in the mattress, and can make the bed about as uncomfortable as the one we had at a summer hotel last summer at 84 a day apiece. But she has got to have a hre. in the room all summer to make the room as hot as our hotel room was, because our house is so near Lase Michigan that it is disgustingly cool during the summer."
