There' not green blade yet
Whereupon a breeae could play,
The bare brown earth is wet
With the rain of yesterday;
But on the apple bough
A sound more sweet than rain ! -
Hark to the overflow
Kobin's come again,
Snow on the mountain side,
Never a leaf on tree,
Never a spray to hide
A nook where a neat may be ;
Only a hint, 'tis true,
That hope is not in Tain,
A ky more soft and bine
Robin's come again.
i
0. Robin, he can sing
Where not a flower can thrive,
.Musician of the spring.
The blithest thing alive ; ,
The March winds softlier blow '
Over the dreary plain,
A sunny day or so.
Kobin's come again.
Tbe while he caroleth,
Our hearts are lighter grown,
We almost feel the oreath
Of violet! new-blown;
lie sings the songs we knew.
The earliest, gladdest strain,
Ah, old friends are the troe
Kobin's come again.
A Lake Dried Up.
A few days ago the water from Ottawa
lake, in Monroe county, Michigan, all at
once disappeared. The Coldicater Gazette
states that the water Lad begun to subside
lor some davs, and the teamsters who car
ried stone from the lake noticed that the
hole.- at which they watered their cattle
were crowded with fish. They increased in
numbers, both large and small, the former
havim? their mouths wide open, and so ex
hausted that the people caught them with
their hands. The work of quarrying and
hauling stones was soon abandoned, and in a
shirt tune scores of teams and hundreds of
men might be teen on and around the lake.
The men with their handspikes, crowbars,
and axes, were busily engaged in cutting and
raising huge pieces of ioe, and then stoop
ing down and lifting the tish, some of which
were dead, some alive, and some frozen fast
la the ice, tor the water having departed
from the lake by some subterranean passage,
the vast sheet of ice lay on the bottom.
For three days immense quantities of fish
were carried away, principally pickerel and
bass, while vast quantities were left to rot
on thi ice and in the mud for mud and ice
are all that are left of Ottawa Lake. - Nu
merous pieces of ice are left standing on
edge, like so many grave stones. The lake,
or rather its bed, or graveyard, presents a
novel scene. Some say the water will soon
return by the same source by which it ;de-
parted, bringing a rresh supply or hsh with
it for Lake Erie is supposed to be its head
quarters. Meantime the farmers in the vi
cinity greatly feel the loss of the departed
waters. About seven years ago this lake
departed in the same way and old men say
it departs and returns periodically.
Little Thixgs. Springs are little things,
tut they are sources of large streams ; a
helm is a little thing, but it governs the
course of a ship ; a bridle bit is a little thing,
but see its use and power ; nails and pegs
are little things, but they hold the large
)art of large buildings together ; a word, a
ook, a frown all are little things.but pow
erful for good or evil. Think of this and
mind the little things. Pay that little debt
it's promised, redeem it if it's a shilling
hand it over you know cot what important
event hangs upon it. Keep your word sa
credlykeep it to the children, they will
mark it sooner than any one else, and the
effect will probably he as lasting as life.
Mind the little things.
American Silver in Canada. There"
is such a glut of American silver in Canada
that the government of the Dominion has
been memorialized to withdraw from circu
lation all the silver, at a discount of four per
cent., and ispue in its place one million dol
lars of Canadian silver, the remainder of the
enrrency to be made np'of paper money, in
billa of not less than one dollar. . We should
be well pleased to see our silver come back
from Canada. There is said to be now about
$7,X)0,0iX) worth of American silver in Cari
na, and a duty of fifteen per cent has been
imposed upon the importation of such silver
twin into the province.
Beautiful Superstition. Among the
superstitions of the Seneeas, there is one
which for its singular beauty is already very
known. YY hen a maiden dies they im
prison a young bird until it first begins to
try iu powers of song, and then loading it
ith kisses and caresses, they loose its bonds
rer the grave in the belief that it will not
old its wings, neither close its eyes until it
fias flown to the spirit land, and delivered
ll precious burden of affection to the loved
na lost. "It ia not unfrequent," says the
dian historian, "to see twenty or thirty
irJs loosened at once over one grave."
Axotiier Discovery. Captain CadeU,
wmmonding an exploring expedition on the
Bnh coast of Australia, has discovered a
river, with a good pastoral country on
banks ; also a fine haven with an area of
me fifty square miles, and on a part of the
Cost, hitherto represented as dry land, he
'"led up a deep bay, twenty miles in depth
by ten in breadth, with three large rivers
mptying themselves into it.
An Irish physician was called to examine
Jta corpse of another Irishman, who had
wen assassinated by 6ome of his countrymen.
."This person," said he, after inspecting the
tody, "was so ill that if he had not been
murdered he would have died half an hour
Wort he wax killed."
THE BARLEY LOAF.
Thirty years ! it is a long period in the
allotted term of life on earth ! First the ba
by sleeping in its cradle, then the child in
short frocks romping in the garden walks,
then the much coveted jacket and trowsers,
and the going to school ; then the ambitious
boy, passing from school to college ; then
the farewell address and crowning honors of
college life, and out into the world to find
joy or sorrow ; and then the closing of the
eyes and rest of the restless heart, and to
how many comes all this within the space
of thirty years 1
If any one had said to Master Elias, on
his thirtieth birth -day, "Master Elias, there
will come a beggar to your door to day :
give her one of those two barley loaves, of
yours, and thirty years trom to-day you will
be paid for it and a good price too. Mas
ter Elias would probably have started at
this announcement, and might, in truth,
have answered that there was charity e
nough in his heart to give a loaf of bread
to a beggar, without hope or promise of be
ing paid for it, either in thirty years or at
any other time
Master Elias, I must tell you, was the
village schoolmaster : but he did not live as
country schoolmasters usually do--boarding
around, first at one house and then at an
other. YVhen he came to the village,three
years before, he brought with him a little
siater.a pretty child, about twelve years old;
they two were all alone m the worn, and he
seemed to feel the nsed of some place that
he could call home tor hiuiseir and her ; so
he hired a little cottage, and took into it
poor old woman, who tor her support was
willing to be his housekeeper. After two
years bhe died, and then the Utile girl be
came housekeeper.
Whether Master hhas had a little store
of money when he came to the village, and
spent it all at his attempt at domestic com
fort, 1 cannot tell ; but certain it is that he
grew poorer and poorer, and now was very
poor indeed.
It was a poor village where he taught:
each one of the villagers thought that the
others were all doing a great deal for the
support of the schoolmaster ; so, being eve
rybody's business to support him, it be
came, in the course of time, nobody's busi
ness : and so it happened that, on his thir
tieth birthday, a bright September day,
when he and his little sister sat down to the
grand banquet on theoccasicn the - grand
banquet consisted of nothing but bread and
milk the contents of the pantry having
been reduced to two barley loaves.
Hut bread and milk is a very good thing
to anybody with a good appetite and a good
conscience, so the two sat long and merrily
over the repast ; and just as they finished,
came a rap at the door : a poor girl in rags ;
tier mother was sick in the hovel on the hill;
she was begging for food. Master Elias hes
itated for one instant only. It 1 give a-
way tha bread, what will we eat to morrow?
thought he. It was a passing thought,and
he put it f rom him, and felt trustful in Di
vine Providence for the morrow.
I will- give you half of all I have ; I can
do no more," he said ; and gavethe girl one
of his barley loaves, and divided with her
the scanty fuel that he had to cook the
morrow's meal.should there be one to cook:
and the girl departed.
The Ions, cold winter passed ; night alter
night, when his labors were over, would he
sit by his solitary fire, with his little sister
by his side, teaching her,telling her stones,
and thinking of the time when she would
be a woman a good and beautiful woman,
with a bright, happy home of her own.
But toward spring there came a time
when he had to dismiss school and shut up
the schoolhouse, and tell bis boys his little
sister was sick, and there would be no school
for a few days, until she got well again ; and
the da3s grew into weeks, and there was no
school.
And there came an evening when Mas
ter Elias sat quite alone in his cottage, and in
the village churchyard in the valley there
was a fresh grave heaped up, and the dews
were falling on it, and the winds whistled
over it. Master Elias never opened his
school-house again ; in the spring he left
the village, and no one knew whither he
had gene. . -
Years passed on ; ten years passed ; many
new faces were seen in the village, many old
ones have disappeared from it. Ten more
years have passed; and still greater were
the changes. New houses, and churches,
and stores, whole new streets, and when
yet another ten years had gone, little, very
little indeed was left of the village of thirty
years before. The old men and women of
the ivy covered church in the valley ; the
young ones had mostly scattered and travel
ed to other places. But there were some
little legacies that the old village had ber
queathed the new village; one was the
stage coach, which had not yet given place
to a railroad ; another was the village inn,
a time-worn structure under the great elms
and poplars at the entrance of the village ;
another was the buxom wife of the inn
keeper she was born in thi8 village,andhad
passed hero her whole life ; and lastly there
was an especial legacy of her own, that she
kept and cherished as something better than
gold andt silver, that had been as she said,
the blessing of her life, and was certainly a
blessing to the poor within her reach and
this legacy was what she called "Master E
licut' rule.'1 '
When any poor soul in distress went to
her for help, she might be able to give but
a little, but that little she gave with such
kindness and sympathy that it seemed a
great deal, and she would say, in giving it :
"It is Master Elias' rule." Did any poor
traveler come along who could scarcely af
ford to pay for his supper and bed, he got
them for nothing "for Master Eluw rule.
Did the good man, the farmer and lnkeep
er, gently remonstrate sometimes when her
charities seemed beyond - prudence, she
would say : "Have we not prospered well in
all things, my husband ? Yet have I fol
lowed all my life Master Elias' rule." And
if, while she was busy in some kind charity,
some one would ask, "YVho is this Master
Elias.and what rule! she would smile, and
Bay," This is his rule," andgo on with her
work of mercy.
So it came to pass that Master Elias
rule became a proverb and a saying in the
village for every action of benevolence and
good will.
It happened one winter night, when the
passengers had alighted from the stage
coach and gone into the cheerful inn, and
one very poor old man had lingered outside,
as if afraid to go in among such grand com
pany, that the stage driver took him by the
arm, and led him into the parlor, and called
out theland lady : "Here is a poor old man,
mistress, who will be thankful, I believe,for
Masters Elias' ru!e to-night."
"He shall be taken care of," answered
the landlady,cheerfully,as she was bustling
around preparing supper for her guests.
The old man had started when the driver
spoke, and had looked for a moment from
one to the other, and then seemed to sink
into a revery ; but when the mistress of the
house set some supper before him he look
ed up timidly in her kind face.
"I am afraid I cannot pay for much of a
supper to night
lou shall not pay anything for it, nor
for your bed, either,' was her reply, "Eat ;
it will do your heart good, man.
- xes, added the inkeeper, who had
come in a moment before, "eat, it does one
food to eat such days and nights as these !
think my wife may as well follow Master
alms rule, as she calls it, with you.
The other travelers had gone up to their
beds ; the innkeeper, his wife, and the old
man were alone when thi was said. The
old man dropped his knife and fork, and ex
claimed in a trembling voice : "What does
that mean?" The innkeeper laughed out
right. Why, man, said he, it does not
mean that we murder or rob (heaven help
us,tbere would be no robbing of you) that
we murder or rob travelers here? eat your
supper," he continued, more gently. "Why,
when my wife sees a chance of doing good
to anybody giving a man a supper, for in
stance, or a bed, or sending some fire wood
to a neighbor why she does it, and she calls
it following Master Julias rule ; that s alLit
means." v ; .
- The old man bad not resumed hia supper.1
"Who is M aster Elias ?" he asked.
The inkeeper and his wife were amazed at
the agitation ot their visitor.
"Thirty years ago," he went on, "I kept
a school in this village, and I was called
Master Elias. "
The innkeeper's wife was holding his hands
in hers, and looking through her tears yito
his face. "The same! the very same!"
cried 6he. "Master Elias, have you come
back?"
The innkeeper stood astonished, I might
say aghast, at this scene. Master Elias had
been such a proverb.such a mysterious being,
neither the inkeeper nor any one else had
ever certainly known whether he was a mor
tal man of flesh and blood, or some creature
of imagination, written about and read about
in books ; so that the apparition of Master
Elias standing in person in the parlor of his
inn affected him very much as might an ap
parition of some unearthly being trom anoth
er world.
"Master Elias, don't you remember me ?
But no you cannot I was a poor beggar
girl once and when my mother was sick I
went to your house,and you gave me hilt or
everything you had have you forgotten it?
The barley loaf ? I never have. I have fol
lowed your rule always, and given halt to the
poor; and my good husband there can ten
whether, in the twenty years I have bdeti
married to him, all things have not gone
well with us.
The innkeeper had by this time recovered
from the amazement. He shook his guest by
the hand, and told him to make his home in
the inn for the rest of his lite, if he liked it.
It might be thought that, however much
the innkeeper's wife had prospered by foltow-
. . , r , . t ..... , 1 x
ing her ruieot chanty, Master bilias nau uoi
flourished by it, at least; for he was old and
Door he had been sick a great deal out of
employment and had started for this village,
his home ot thirty years ago, homeless and
friendless. But did not his reward come at
last? In the inn he found a home: in the
innkeeper's wife a daughter ; in her rosy
children pupils, whom he loved to teach,for
his intellect was bneht and his mind well
stored; in the villagers.one and all,he found
friends, for his name was already among
them, associated with goodness and virtue ;
and at last, beside his little sister's grave.he
found a resting place,where on a little white
stone is recorded how the people cherished
the memory ot Master Jbuas rule, and loos
ed forward with a cheerful hope to meeting
him where that rule ot charity shall be even
the rule whereby ice are to be judged.
A Bia Sucker. The Reading Eagle
thus describes the capacity of a Lancaster
county drinker: "A fellow residing beyond
Fritztown, near the Berks and Lancaster
line in the latter named county, we believe
can beat it "all hollow." YVe saw him
swallow six large glasses two of porter and
four of water in eight minutes, One day
he met a porter wagon on the high-way.and
bought two dozen bottles, drank their con
tents and gave the empty bottles back to
the driver, all in about twenty minutes
time. We saw this individual in this city
several times during the last year. He is
about six feet in height and full sixty years
of age, and says he drinks a bucket of wa
ter regular every night. If we knew the
man's name we would state it, as be seemed
to be quite proud of his capacity to carry
more liquid than any other man."
Many a woman thinks she can do nothing
without a husband, and when she gefs one,
find3 sho can do nothing with him.
; An Adventure.
iresnness is an invariable ingredient in
literature. Old materials have been so ot
ten brought before the minds of the com
uiuuuy, combined, re-conibined, re-named
that novelty of subject seems indispensable.
Hungarv. however. RPftms tnhe. fresh prnnnd.
It has been trodden, but has not yet become
a cemmon highway, especially for pirates in
literature. Francis and Theresa Pulozky
nave written a work entitled "Tales and
lraditions of Hungary:" and ithasintrin
sic merit. The work is illustrative of Hun
garian life, and the following lecend will in
troduce the famous robber Haburack to the
reader :
Fnnee Fredric Schwartzenburir. son of
the celebrated Field Marshall Schwartzen
nurg, used often to relate his encounters
with the notorious robber Haburack. The
Prince once accompanied a ladyfrom Hungary
to Vienna. They journeyed on the moun
tain roads between the countries of Gonior
and ;Torna. Heavy showers had greatly
damaged the road,evenine had approached;
the tired horses bad reached the ridge or the
woody height, and could not be urced on
further. ; The travelers were thus compell
ed to sejek shelter for the night in the inn
Aggtelek, a hiding place of ill note for rob
bers.'; I he carriage halted before the house.
and the servant inquired whether room could
be afforded. The publican replied that
there was one room for the lad v. but the
gentleman could not be accommodated, the
large guest room being filled. After some
reluctance he acknowledged that the gang of
Haburack was drinking there, lhe ladv be
came; terrified and entreated the Prince not
to remain ; but it had grown dark, the rain
was pouring down, the horses were worn
out, aud the steep descent of the road was
dangerous to proceed. The Prince tried to
assure the lady; so she locked herself up iu
the room assigned to her. Her companion,
wrapped in his white officers' cloak under
which he kept his pistols in readiaess, step
ped into the apartment where the robbers
were assembled and sat down to the table,
facing the window, whilst the servant like
wise armed, kept watch outside of the house,
close to the window, on the alert in case his
master should want his assistance.
The company consisted of about ten or
twelve men. Their rifles leaned against the
wall; their axes lay upon the board, on
which stood their wine jugs. They drank
lancl.iMBK arer iheir adventures and did not
take any notice or their newly arnved guest.
The Prince mixed in their conversation, took
wine with them, and listened to thejr con
vsrsation until it had grown late. Suddenly
he rose, called the publican, threw a gold
coin on the table, and said: "This is to pay
for the wine these good folks have drank;
they are my guests. But now,' he con
tinued, "it is my time to sleep. In the ad
joining room is a sick lady the entertain
ment has lasted long enough I cannot allow
any one to longer occupy this room, or
disturb the lady's rest by noise."
At this imperative command one of the
robbers jumped from his seat,and contempt
uously laughing, cried out : "Does the. gen
tleman fancy that because he has a carriage,
and plenty of money in his pocket, he. has
the right to command us?"'
An uproar followed. The men vocifera
ted: "We are poor lads, and therefore we
are masters here."
"We are no timorous peasants who take
off our hats to every gentleman." :
4 5 We have money and credit enough to
swallow a draught when thirsty."
"Yre do not accept any gift from persons
who fancy themselves better than we are."
"YYre will not be ruled."
All this was simultaneoufly uttered with
a loud tumult from all sides. All the rob
bers had got up. The Prince had mechan
ically caught, hold of his pistols and threw
off his coat.
"I am master in the craft in which you
are but apprentices" he exclaimed with dig
nity. "You are but robbers I am a sol
dier and fear neither the mouth of a rifle
nor the edge of an axe."
During the uproar, a man of middling
height and strongly marked features had ris
en from the bench beside the stove, where
he had quietly sat during the coversation,
without partaking of the wine. He now
said in a commanding tone :
"Silence!',
The rnhWs irrew speechless at this or
der, and again sat down to the table.
Mr. Officer, "continued the man, "do
not think you can frighten us. I too have
been a soldier, and most probably smelt
more powder than ever yon did. I am Hab
urack. If I desired to do you any harm, a
single whistle would suffice. The table at
which you eat would be overtnrown, me
candles extinguished, and before you was
aware of what was going on, you would be
a dead man, no less than your servant there
at the window, who thinks he watches us
whilst we watch him. But I saw you help
a lady out of the carriage and take her to
the adjoining room. YVe will never disturb
a lady s test, we war with men, not with
women. For the present we shall leave
this shelter vet remember, sir, that this h
the first time for a fortnight that these men
have been under a roof, and that the couch
there below on the damp oak leaves is by no
means comfortable. Farewell." '
"Friends let us go, he called to his men. ,
They took up their arms and went.
mi - . .1.1 !iU ikn
1 he Prince was greatly struct wiw wio
whole proceeding. He did not entirely
trust the robber's word, and relieving his
servant they paced up and down.thns keep
ing watch the whole night. But no robber
again appeared. , ,
Un the morrow tne may rejuui
journey with her companion. iuc u-
er had cleared up, and oniy tne puuuica ...
the lanes, and the drops of ram glistening
on the branches reminded them ot the rain
the previous day. ' ,
After they had ridden about an hour they
suddenly heard the crack of a rifle close to
them in the woods. Haburack stepped
forth from the bushes and bid the coachman
"halt."
The horses stopped, the Prince drew forth
his pistols. But Ilaburack, without heed
ing his threatening m.ein, rode close up to
the carriage door aud said:
"We yesterday sacrificed oufcomfort that
the rest of this lady might not be disturbed.
Now I will 6ee if it is worth the trouble."
With these words he lifted the veil which
hung down from the lady's bonnet,and look
ed for an instant into her face. The lady
blushed and he said :
"She is really very pretty."
He turnod round, plucked a wild ro.se
from a bush close at hand, aud offered it to
the lady with these words:
Accept this rose kindlv. as a keepsake
from the poor robber Haburack ; and it
you some time hear that he has been hang-
ea, pray an Ave Maria tor his souL
1 he lady took the rose and the robber
vanished.
Two years later, the newspapers related
that the robber Ilaburack had beeh caught,
that he had been tried at the assizes in Tor-
na, convicted of dissertion and highway rob
bery and hanged.
The Terrors op Bashfulness. If
there is any defect more striking than an
other in the American character it is bash-
fulness. Young America, in particular, is
painfully affected by it. An accident is
mentioned by a correspondent, who was de
sired by his aunt to goto the neighbor
Shaw's and see if he had for sale any straw
suitable for filling beds. "Mr Shaw," says
our informant, 'was blessed with a goodly
number of. Misses chaw, and! therefore
felt a little timid at encountering them. To
make the matter worse. I arrived iust as
the family was seated for dinner. Stopping
at the door-way, hat in hand, I stammered
out :
"Mr. Straw can you spare enough Shaw
to fill a couple of beds?"
eh, replied the old gentleman, glan
cing around at hislarge family, and enjoy
ing my mistake, 1 don t know but 1 cam
how many will you need :
Before 1 could recover, .those hateful
Shaw girls burst into a chorus of laughter,
and I returned to my excellent aunt.
An old and popular Iri:-.h clergyman had
a disagreement with one of bis parishoners
who was an extremely refractory character
of great wealth but of low origin, vulgar
habits and abusive tongue. Upon hearing
from a third party that his aucestry had been
spoken ot disparagina by this rich boor.
the old parson, borrowing a ccriptural met
aphor, exclaimed, "YYrhy, sir, my father
would not have set him with the does of his
flock." This remark reached the ears of
the nabob, who immediately repaired to
the clergyman and demanded an apology.
The good old man listened patiently to the
ravines ot his pansboner, and closed tbe
discussion with the remark ; "Did I really
say that my father would not have set you
with his dogs ? I was wrong, sir ; believe
lie would. .
The editor of the Iowa Falls Sentinel has
invented a method whereby he keeps his
neighbors cows from stealing nis hay. lie
describes it thus : "A certain quadruped
had a sweet tooth for our hay stack and did
much damage, throwing down the seven rail
fence and roosting in our hay. YYre bought
a box of Cayenne pepper,' took a nice lock
of hay, placed it outside, 'baptized' it with
pepper, and watched, lhe anin al came
along and pitched into the hay, when sud
denly she took the hint and with nose at 45
degrees and tail at 90 degrees her soul went
inarching on, at the rate of 2:40. 1 hat
cow has not come back. Try this ye afflict
ed, and you will save your hay and have a
good hearty laugh all to yourself."
"Adulterated Tea." said Mrs. Part
ington, as she read an account of the adul
teration of teas in Eogland, at which she
was much shocked. I know that my tea is
not adulterated, for it smells virtuous," con
tinued she smiling with satisfaction, ' 'and I
know this fchooshon tea must be good, be
cause I bought it of Mr. bhoo shon himself.
saw him weigh it out and saw him tie it
up with his own hands, and I noticed his
name above the door ; I tell you there is
no mistake about mv tea. for Mr. Shoo-
shon told mc he raised it in his own garden
and kept his eye on it all the time, so that
there was no possible chance of its having
been adulterated."
Pat's idea of sympathy was a good one.
le had long been trying to get Bridget to
give him a parting kiss. Finally, as a last
resort, he turned away, saying, "Good-by,
Biddy! Sure and ye havn't any sympathy
for meat all, at all." "Sympathy is it?
And what dv'e mane by that' Patrick?"
"Come hereBiddy, and I'll be afther tell
ing ye ! YY'hen I love ye so that I'd like to
bite a piece right ont of your swate cheek,
and ye fale as if ye'd like to have me do so
that's sympathy, be jabbers!" "Ah, Pat
rick, you know my wakeness I J ake a piece ;
but be sure and lave it, so that ye can take
it again when ye come !"
In the billiard-rooms of YY'illard's Ilotel,
at YVashington, a boozy individual made a
bet that ' he could swallow a billiard ball.
The bet was accepted, and the boozy indi
vidual undertook the task. The bail was
oiled and with home effort got it through bis
teeth and into hia mouth ; and there it
stayed and would neither go down nor come
out until Dr. M. was sent for, who after
half an hour's hard work.removed it Up to
