ONE YEAR AGO.
One year ago to-night, lore,
When first I met your smile,
The stars were shining bright, love,
I was happy all the while.
'One year ago to night, love,
ond memory bears me back
To cares that were so light, love,
t Along our youthful track.
You bid me not dispair. love,
That fame would crown my brow,
To ease my every care, love,
You bid me humbly bow.
But changes tbey have eome, love,
Like clouds that dim the sud,
They crossed our path of pleasure, love,
Our hopes, our joys weie done.
One year ago to-night, love.
How sad it sounds to mo ; -The
world is not as bright, love,
, As when I strayed with thee.
Yes, sad to think another year,
Will quick ly pass us by.
And frienli we love will soon decay,
As flowers that bloom to die.
ZENAS CASEY'S REWARD.
Red and sullen like the eye ,of some
baleful demon, the low sun glowed through
the tangled depths of the November woods
casting bloody lines of light across the fal
len trees, whose mossy trunks were half hid
den in the drifts of faded yellow leaves, and
evoking faint, sweet scents like Orient san
dal wood and tcek, from a thousand forest
censors hidden away, ' who knows how or
where. And through that line of dull flaui
iug fire the sky frowned a leaden gray con
cave, freighted, as the weathcrwise would
tell you with snowflakes sufficient to turn
that broken forest into a fairy grove of pearl
and eruaiue. So the daylight was ebbing
away from this Ihanksgivmg eve.
"Now I wonder wheie I am ?" said John
Siddons, pausing abruptly in the scarse vis
ible footpath that wound among the trees.
"As completely 'turned around' as though
I stood in the deserts of Egypt ! I wish I
had been sensible enough to keep to the
right road ; these short tuts generally turn
out long ones. However if I keep straight
ahead 1 must inevitably emerge from these
woods so?iic where."
He sat down on a mossy stump, leaning
his head carelessly on his hand, while the
other tlaved unconsciously with the worn
brim of lus blue soldier a cap - t-J,T.-
plea-ant faced young man, with grey-blue
eyes, and dark hair thrown back ironi a
bronzed forehead, which had been touched
ky the fiery arrows of many a Southern sun
ill Lnely swamps, and along the fever-reek-
i&g shores of sullen rivers.
"Houseless homeless!" he nmrmered
to himself.. "I wonder how many others
are saying the same thing this Thanksgiv
ing eve. To think that I should pass through
the campaign unhurt, and return with an
honorable discharge in my pocket to a p'ace
where no one knows or cares whether I am
alive or dead, while so many brave fellows
were shot down by my side with bullets that
tore through a score of hearts at home, car
rying sharper pangs than death has to give !
Its a queer thing to have only one relative
in the world, and he a total stranger.,1 I
Had this second cousin of my father he'll
probably kick me out of doors for a shiftless
soldiering vagabond. But hang it, a man
can't live alone like a tortoise in his shell.
I remember wondering, when I was a boy,
why the Madeira vines over the porch stretch
ed out their green tendrils, and seemed to
prope through the sunshine for something
to cling to. 1 think I understand it now."
He rose up and walked on through the
russet leaves that rustled ankle deep beneath
his tread, still musing musing ; trying to
tudy out the unknown quantities in life's
rat equation while the sun went down
behind a bank of lurid clouds, and the chill
niirht wiud began to sigh sorrowfully in the
tree tops. And suddenly the sturdy woods
tapered off into a silver stemmed thicket of
white birches that fringed a lonely country
road with a little red house beyond, whose win
dows were aglow with firelight, and whose
dor yard wa's full of the peculiar perfume
of white and maroon-blossomed chyrsan
thi'inums. Zenas Carey was leaning over the gate
varveyingthestormysunset with critical eyes.
' I told Melinday so!" ejaculated Zenas,
apparently addressing himself to the crook
ed apple tree by the road. "I'll bet my
best steer we have a good old fashioned fall
of snow to keep Thanksgivin' with, I smelt
it in the air this mornin', but women don t
never believe nothin' until it comes to pass
rieht under their noses, for " .
This rather obscure sentence was nipped
in the bud by a footstep at his side. Zenas

' Will you be kind enough to give me a
filass of water, sir ?" asked John Siddons,

'IIr...,l ..I- T tiitra nn home 1
Siddons had gpoken sharply, as if the
bought were goading to him. Zenas put
a broad knotty hand and grasped the
treating man'sann. ,', '
"My boy 1" he said with kindly abrupt-
ies v.m'r a Bohlier. and to tell by your
taks'l guess you're about the age of him
nat s buried at Gettysburg my only son :
I love t hot Wne uniform for David's sake,
0'1 if there's a soldier in the world that
tasn't a hrtinfl to ro to Thanksgivin' eve,
there's a corner for him by Zepas Carey's
Stt-ide. Come in sir! come in I Your'e
wHoorne as flowers in Mav.
Johii looked into the wet eyes and work
ing face of the old farmer an instant and
then accepted the invitation without anoth
er word.
What a cheerful change it was, from the
frosty air chill twilight of the lonely road to
that bright kitchen with its spotless board
noor and resinous pine logs. And when
Meimda Carey drew a hump-backed rock
ing chair to the hearth for him, and spoke
a word or two of welcome. John Siddons
wondered if the eves of his mother who
died when he was a babe had not . beamed
upon him then.
"1 told mother so. this very morning,"
said Zenas, with a triumpant flourish of his
hand, as he stirred up the logs to a waving
glorious sheet of name. bays I jMehnda,
we'll kill the biggest turkey, and I'll pick
out I he yallerest pumpkins on the barn
floor. And says she what for Zenas when
there s only two to eat em (, and says 1
jUother, David was here last lhanksgiv
ing, with his new uniform, as brave and
haudsome as you'll often see now mother
don t cry.
Zenas interrupted himself to stroke his
wife's gray hair with a strangely teuder
touch, and went cn :
'-bays! "lies gone where its Thanks
givin' all the year round now, my poor boy
my brave boy ! but says I, we 11 make
somebody welcome for David's sake ; won't
we mother.' And now, sir. you 11 spend
the morrow with us, and tell us pbout the
battle ol Gettysburg, where David died, cry
ing with his last breath not let the flag be
captured!
Zenas s vctce died out into a choking gas
ping sob. John feiddons laid his hand soft
ly on the rough toil-hardened hand of the
old farmer, while a pangof envy shot through
his heart. Ah ! it was almost worth while
to be shot down in battle to be missed and
mourned ikz dead David Carey.
Ut), wire wailed Zenas, when Jchn
Siddons had fallen asleep in the little corn
er room that had been the lost boy's, "it is
almost like having David back again !
Wife, I light "hiy great sorrow d nvn every
night, but every morning it comes up again
more than ever! God help those whose
home is ui.de desohite by the field of bat
tle!" Thanksgiving dawned with a white whirl
wind of driving snow that eddied among the
gnarled boughs of the apple trees in their
mad frolics, and edged the oid stone, wall
with dazzling ermine. And the fiery sparks
way and gave battle, while the hearth glow
ed with ruddy brightness, as if it knew all
about the Governor's Proclamation aud ap.
proved of it. '
"lou have a cozy uttie iarm nere, iur.
Carey," said John, as they walked, through
the snow storm to the church, whose spire
nestled among the everlasting hills beyond.
"If I were only sure of it, sir," said Ze
nas with a sigh. "But I've been hard put
to it to get a long these times. Taxes and
such like come heavy on poor men.an l I've
had a run of ill luck so that the place is
mortgage 1 to its full value, aud to a hard
man one that will sell the home you've
been brought up in as soon as eat his break
fast, so he can make money by it. It will
be a black day when Meliudy and me have
to leave Rock farm ; but it must come soon,
and I don't care what becomes of me after
wards. I tell you sir, when a man has liv
ed to my age under one roof tree he don't
take very kinily to bein' moved. Men are
like forest trees sir; you can take a young
one and do as you please, with it, but if you
transplant an old 'un it dies. Let's talk of
something else. Mr Siddons, I oughtn't to
complain Thanksgiving day.
John looked with afeeling of actual rev
erence at the hard featured old man . whose
simple soul borne down as he was by debt,
and grief, and age, could still find some
thing to be thankful tor.
The turkey and pumpkin pies were smok
ing on the round table when John and Ze
nas returned from church ; and Mrs. Carey
had brought out her flowing blue plates
and her choicest old time silver spoons in
honor o( her imest. . There was no bever
age but coffee that never knew the shores of
Java, and a pitcher of cold sparkling cider ;
but champagne could not have been more
cordially dealt out by Zenas; and Mrs. Ca
rey's smiline kindness gave a flavor to the
chickorized rye that is sometimes lacking in
'eirg-shell china.
The table was cleared away, and they
were sitting around the fire, when the door
was opened, and Deacon Evarts entered,
bringing a small snow-drift cn the shoulder
of his shaggy overcoat.
"Well I am beat 1" quoth Zenas. "Take
a chair, Deacon. Let me hang your coat
afore the fire to dry." . .
"Can't stav," said the Deacon, giving
himself a shake,likeablack water-dog on his
hind legs, "I thought you would like to
hear the news, so I jest dropped in on my
way to my darter a lhankgivip.s dinner.
"News ! what news?" exclaimed Zenas,
while his wife dropped her knitting.
"Ho toll then vou haint heard?"
"1 hain't hrd nothin' but the wind a
howlin' down the chimbly, and Elder
Smith's sarmon this mornin ,. said Zenas,
a little imnaticntlv.
"Tho ' Squire' a dead, up to the great
house !" ,
"Dead! You don't tell me so. lhat s
the man I was a speakin' of as holding my
mortgage" explained Zenas, turning to
John Siddons. And when did it happen,
Deacon?' - '
"Died last night, sir, just about night
fall nuiec as a lamb. There wa'nt no
body with him but the old housekeeper-
folks dldn 1 8 pose ne was uangeruus. auu
i rorftri. savs there's a regular will.and
uet -.11 lU nronertv to the only rcla-
w J,.,rliuin': a soldierin' feller he'd
live no - . , , i
never as much as seen one Sedgewick or
Sibley, or what's his name now f Anyoouy,
Wo fi.il hoir to ail 'Souire Peter Ailesford s
property, and that's a pretty consid'able
windfall!"
"Was that name Siddons?" asked the
soldier, who had hitherto listened to the
conversation in silence.
"That's it!" said the Deacon, giving his
knee a sounding slap.
"Peter Ailesford was my father's cousin,
saia tne young mau quietly.
"Land o' Goshen," ejaculated Deacon
Evarts, with growing veneration for the
heir to 'the old - Squire's' numey. "JNow
reely! that s kind o providential, ain't it
lo think that you should be right here on
the spot !
"I was in search of Mr. Ailesford's house
when I met you, sir," said Siddons turn
ing to Cary; "but as I was unaware what
sort of reception I might get, your kind in
vitation decided me to wait a day or two."
.In vain the Deacon tried to "pump" the
young soldier. John Siddons was civilly
uncommunicative, and thi Deacon finally
took leave burning to unfold his budget of
news elsewhere. . ". . . ,
"I hope, sir," said Carv. uneasilv. when
they where once more alone, -"you won't be
hard about that mortgage. I m a poor man,
and "
"Mr. Cary," said John quietly, you shall
burn that mortgage on this hearth the very
day I come into possession of my relative's
papers. No thanks, sir; I have not for
gotten that I was a "stranger, and you took
me in. Do you suppose that 1 shall ever
cease to remember the welcome of the
rhanksgivmg hearth ? I never knew either
father or mother, but to-day I have fancied
what their kindness might have been."
"It was for David's sake !" sobbed Mrs.
Cary, fairly overcome.
"1 hen for your dead son s sake will' vou
let me fill his place toward you ? Last night
death took from me the only one in the
world to whom I was allied by ties of blood;
do not turn me from your hearts !"
1 he .Lord bless thee the Lord make
his face to shine on thee, my second son,"
said the old man solemnly.
Slowly the dusk gathered athwart the
hills, with wailinL winds and whirling drifts
of snow slowly the darkness wrapped them
round ; but in Zenas Larev s steadfast soul
the light of an eternal Thanksgiving was
burning ; -and his wire with tearful eyes,
mused upon her two soldier bovs one dead
at Ge(tysburgvthe other sitting at her side.
countered" a peasant and his wife, with
whom he entered into conversation. The
woman having, as usual the longest tongue,
inquired where he was cure. I am not a
cure," replied the priest. "Then you nre a
vicar? "No, lam of the company ot Je
sus." At this the peasantess looked at the
river, and further, with stupid air, exclaim
ed : "You are of the company of Jesus!
Arc you, then, the Virgin Mary?" ,','But
3'ou know well enough that I am .not !" ex
claimed the astonished Jesuit. "Are you
St. Joseph, then?" "O, no, indeed."
"Then," said the woman, looking gravely
at her husband, "is it possible that he is
the mule?" She was thinking of the Flight
into Egypt.

Dennis looked at his large strong hands.
"Count thumbs and all."
"I have ; there are ten," said the lad.
"Thon never sav vou have not trot ten
