THE OLD CANOE.
Where the rock are gray and the shore ii steep.
And tua waterjbelow look dark and deep,
Where the rnjed pine, in it lonely pride,
tc irs gloomily over tan mucky tide ;
V h; h reeds and rushes are long and rack.
Ar.l the weed grow thick on the winding bunk ;
Whore the h ado vr is heavy tbo who! day though,
Lies at its moorings the old oinoe.
The u.-e!c. paddies are idly dropped,
Lilceasa :-irJ's wins that the storm baa lopped,
An 1 crowd on the ra'Iing one o'er onr,
like '.he folded bandi when the work if done ; y
While busily tack and forth between.
The spider trrtvhe bis nil Tory screen ;
And ihe solemn owl with his dull '-too boo,"
St tica down on the side of the old canoe.
The stern half suck in the sliiny ware,'
I.u i lvly away in its living grave,
And the green moss creeps o'ur its dull deoay,

VMlc many a blossom of lovlirat hue

Tut the liht wind plays with the boat at will,
An 1 lazily in and out aaio

''But I can't go dear," Baid Hetty, firmly.
'i5ut you can go, and you shall go," re
t j-c l Nell, "for Winfield says so. It doesn't
matt. jn the leist, not in the least. If I
tid to'd hiui yesterday it would Wve bee-a
all the same, we were both so anxious to
have you with us."
"Nell, I can't go; it is impossible. Oh,
I am io sorry 1 - what wiil he think ?" and
for a moment Hetty looked t'ae very embod
iment of misery. . . .
"What will bethink? that's a great ques
tion to a-ik! I wish you knew what he
thinks of you, you best sister. Don't you
suppose he knows of your sacrifices for ins,
the poor little good for-nothiug, fur whom
you have worked your fingers almost to the
bone? As if he would begrudge an opera
ticket! Why he.wouli have takeu you long
ago but for your independence, as you call
it. I call it nonsense."
"Can't he dispoac of the ticket?" asked
Hetty.
"No if you don't go the tioket will stay
in his pocket.for we won't take anybody else,
and that would be a dead loss. Come, dar
ling, say you'll go."
"fdon't 8C3 but I shall have to," said
Hetty, with a long-drawn sigh ; and Nell tan
away radiant, to report her success.
But Hetty sat for a long time, her head
resting upon her hand, her eyes fixed on the
work before her. She had made, as Nell
had said, many saciiflces for htr pretty little
fcister one. tire years before, that Nelly had
Hot known of, though slA wondered, in her
childish way, what madft Sumner Landman
stop coining to the house. She missed the
little presents he brought hcr-r-missed his
kindly iaee and laughing brown eyes. She
would have Leen horrified now. to learn that
her sister hid given liim up for her sake.that
they, too, had parted nhiioit in anger, and
that thusthe only love dream of Hetty's life
was ruthlessly dissolved.
Alas fcr Hetty! Since then, she had heard
of her lover's great success in a distant State
and finally of his marriage. Oi;!y Heaven
knows the anguish the had battled with, or
saw with what dread she looked forward to
a hinely life- '"
Hetty never looked prettier in her life
that wxs the verdict pasfed by Nell; and
even WiuSeld gnzed admiringly on the fair
face that the fiush of pleasure and excite
ment made almost beautiful, on the night
of the opera. Ti e tirl enjoyed the Rue
music, the spirited acting, the brilliant sce
nic efforts, and tho sight of joyous t'ueosand
splendid drosses, wl;h a zest that Iong'atsti
tieaee from a!! sue a sights aud sounds had
Ci'tiitfcd.
Snudenlr Nell touched hr sisfer's srni.
'"Hetty, I'd give a good deal to know who
that gentleman is looking at I Do vou see?
the f'jurth seat from tli'j wall ; he has fallen
in love with one of us, I am sure. It seems
as if I had known him somevherc."
Hetty, aliji i.-t .uiKiMeinu.-i'y.for Marguerite
of her spinning wheel had just commenced
the tender, plaintive air, '"King of Thule,"
tinned just in titna to see thequiek'y reced
ing profile of the stranger; but something
in the poise of the head, even, set her pu!.-es
to fluttering, and it was with some ditucilty
sue composed herseir to listen to I tie) mtuie
attain. Oti.-e more she fell the light tap of
Nelly's fan on Iter arm, and heard her whis
per: "Hetty, I've just thought ! The face
is older, but looks liko Sunnier Landman;
you remember him, don't you?"
"Remember hitu !" trembled on Hetty's
lips. !-s at that moment the brown eyes turn
ed full upon her, and she shrank back, pale,
trembling, with an angry thought in her
tioart. v liy does Le looit at uie iu ttiut
way ?"
It was Sumner Landman ; older, darker,
a full lea.'d falling to his throat, the hand
some, genial face unohauK-id, the light of
the clear eyes undimmed.iiiore glorious than
ever in bis manly beauty, but lost to her,
foievcr lott to her, and beside her sat the
sister for whose sake she had refused him,
happy in the love of a true ai.d generous
heart, while i-lie by I cr own act had doomed
herself to a fate sh.0 could not contemplate
without shuddering, be. au.se she had known
the depth aud fervor of a tender love.
"St.y, Hetty, it is him, isn't it?" queried
Nell, with searching.inquisitive eyes. "How
the music affects you, doesn't it ? You don't
know how pale you're grown."
And again, alter Hetty nodded, "yes."
"Where hits he been all this time?"'
"In California, I believe."
Nell was quiet uud thoughtful after that.
"I di believe" she sail that night to her
lover, as they were parting "that Sumner
Landman liked Hetty, for it washer he look
ed at so much to night and Hetty turned
red, and then pale, whenever she noticed it."
"What! rou never knew that they were
engaced once ?"
"Never;" and Nell opened hereyeswide.
"Pray what broke the engagement?"
"Nobody knows." wii the answer.
"It must have been a good reason," Eaid
Nell thoughtfully.
"Hetty always has the best of reasons for
what she does but he is so ha.idsome, how
could she send hiui away ?"
On the following day Hetty sat in her ac
customed place, hot lrcr pen was very idle.
It would travel a line or" two then stop
. , r . . . .:i

Hetty deliberately wiped the nib and laid it
upon the rack, bent her head upon her hands,
and sat thus plunged in thought, sighing
sometimes heavily. Nell's knock sounded.
Hetty looked up as she came in freshening
the faded room with her rosy, breezy pres
ence. "It's Mr. Landman," she said, in a low
voice, breathlessly. "He's in the pat lor
now, walking round and looking at the pho
tographs looking for yours," I expect. Do
go down, he asked for you."
Hetty pressed her hands upon herflutter
inc heart. "V hat shall I do?" she cried.
"Godown and se him he's an old friend,
icu't be ? Are ju afraid of him ? You look
well enough. I wish gTay became me.
You're just a little picture, you darling old
Hetty ; and he will think so. . Go down.".
"Hush, Nell, he's married," Eaid Hetty,
sternly. . ' . ' . ,
Nell gave a scared "Oh !" Hetty smooth
ed her hair, and left her sister looking after
her from the top of stairs.
"Married, poor thing '' said Nell, in a
tender voice, and went into her own room.
Hetty moved slowly from the stairs to the
parlor. She was frightened at the heavy
tlirobbings of her heart, frightened at the
thoughts that assailed her. Nor. was she
prepare'd for his glad face the bound for
ward the claspinj of both hands in his
tho exclamation : "Do you know I came
near losing you altogether ? they told me you
were gone to Europe."
MMycousiu has gone," she replied. "Her
name is the same as mine."
"I know, and but for seeing you lastVight
i should have been off to daj. I tried to
find you there, but lost you in the crowd."
"How long have you been here? and did
Mrs. Landman accompany you?" sheasked.
He smiled. "I liave been here only three
days, aod Mrs. L" did not accompany me,
for the reason that there was no Mrs. L. to
come. Did you think I was married?"
If at that moment everything faded out of
Hetty's mind, but the rapture of feeling that
he was still, perhaps, unchanged, that it
was no sin now to think of and to love him,
who can wonder? She listened to the story
of his wanderings, how he had gone away
vowing still to he true to her, how he had
amassed wealth, and came back determined
to wed none but her. "And you look ten
years younger," ho cried, "than before I
went away, "well she might iu that supreme
momout.
Nell was crying a little in her room when
Hetty called her softly.
"He isn't married, dear," the faid. her
face all aglow.
"And you havn't looked so happy and eo
beautiful for years," cried hersister. "What
can it mean ?''
Hetty wound her arms about her, rnd
whispered iu her ear, .and Nell laughed for
joy. i
All Eqlwi. Here. It is related of the
Duke of Welling ton, that once when he re
mained to take the sacraiuatit at his parish
church, a very poor old man had gone up
the opposite uisle, and reaching (he com
munion table, knelt down at the side of the
Duke. Some one a pew owner propably
ctwe and touched the old man on the
shoulder, aud whispered to him to move
away, or rise Mid wait until the Puke Lad
leccived the 'bread and wine. Dut the ea
gie eye and the q-iicfc ear of the treat com
muiiucr fought the meaning of that touch
and whisper. He clasped the old man's
hands to prevent him lining, jind in a rever
ential undertone, but most distinctly, said :
'"Do not move we are all equal here !''
A young man from the country was sup
ping with soiii? city acquaintances chiefly
females. Tninking to liars fun at h'd ex
pense, one of the girls said to him, "You
country folks don't often drink genuine tea.
and perhaps would prefer the adulterated
stuK'. Now what kind would you Hue?"
"If it's all the same to you I will take a lit
tie civiii-tea, mixed with a little modes tea
a combination I see you have not got."
A servant girl, who had just been admon
ished by her mistress to ho very careful in
"washing up" the best tea things, was over
heard short! afterward, in the buck kitchen.
indulging in the following soliloquy, while
in the aet of wiping the sugar-basin: "If I
was to drop this 'ere ha.-in, and was tocatth
it, I 'sposo I shouldn't catch it ; but if I was
to drop ii, a lid wasn't to catch it, I reckon I
just should catch it.".
A person having tho appearance of a gen
tleman, was recently using very prof'tine lan
guage in one of the public rootns"ot a hotel
jn Baltimore, when he was told by the land
lord that such language was very disagree
able there, bt there was a private room fit
ted up for a "swearing room,: where he
might swear to his heart's content. The
man took ihe rebuke kindly, and was heard
to swear no more.
Indianapolis has a venerable bachelor phy
sician of the age ol T3. who far the past 20
years has not slept in a bed or taken his meals
at regular hours. lie has but one regular
habit, that of drinking about a quart of the
best II hine wine daily. We do not make a
rtuto of this in order to recommend our read
ers to adopt that sort of a regular habit, but
simply as a queer item of news.
At Oitumwa, Iowa, a nice young man put
a sheet around him to scare a Dutchman.
The Teutonic gentleman says : "I sbust
jump my wagon out. and vip der ghost all
the time. I would vip hiui if he was a whohj
graveyard." !Some one asked the young
man what aiiuJ his black eye, and he said
he had received bad news from Germany.
Jliss Shirk, one of ihe young women, who,
during the Vallandingham campaign, rode
in a eart labeled "white h-jsbands or none,"
has changed her mir.d somehow, and mar

disadvantage of being a State prison convict,

How "on'sartain" this life is.
A lady travelling through Ohio, and lec
turing on woman's rights, in response to the
intenogatory, "How about woaiens' work

appeal ence of tha roads in her travels, she
had concluded that they eould not be much
worse if they had.beea'.workwd by women."

ther competent nor content to gratify itself
in the studio of what is grand in nature.nn
willing to inrestigat the problems of phi
losophy and science, it developes in a low
sphere, dealing in scandal, gossip and tat
tling. What is more relentless than "The
Town Talk !" What is more merciless than
the rumors and rep.irts.that fly, like Virgil's
Fame, through th air. and then all at once,
pjunce down upon the head of some unsus
pecting victim. To endure such things is
one of the crosses of life'. The old, the
middle aged and the young alike must bear
the yoke as did their fathers. Death and
gossip are sure to strike all.
Young man, you may have escaped thus
far. Dut you know not what a day may
bring forth. Only to-morrow your sensitive
nature may be shocked by some 'scandalous
report being put into circulation about you.
One old woman airy do the work. As she
confidentially tells her neighbor the aston
ishing secret, with a renynier, soto voce, to
tell every one sh? tells to tell no one else,
then the crcotnof the blue milk gossip floats
thickly on the surface of '"The Town Talk.
At; old woman, with more imagination
than Shakespeare, or the editor of a sensa
tion paper, feels it in her bones that you are
about to be entangled in ihe maze of matri
mony. one pities you. in uie ngnt oi ner

and curiosity rides the waves, and yet you

you are the subject.
This is, indeed, a consoling feature of Gos
sip s retard lor your embarrassment. It is
ouly iu a distant place, by an accidental word,
you learu how your name is on everybody's
lips, and that not as you would have it. '
Young woman, of the purest and most
modest life, think not you can escape. A
surely as five and Sarah and Rebecca and
l'uth haye had their turn.yours must come,
Maybe until to day older ones have enjoyed
the monopoly of the town talk. But age
fickle and uncertain as female years arc, wiil
bear you out with the current. It is a vir
tue if you can look your turn with somcwha'
of indifference. Indeed this is all that
smothers the flame. Anxiety evidently in
creases the luikinsr suspicion : out tne
tongue must be used ; men and woiueu must
talk ; and, after all, tha gossip of the trwn
is that by whieh they live. To have the fire
we must, have tho fuel. '"The tonirue is a
lit tie menil er and bnastcth great things." lie
hold how great a matter a little fire kindleth.
And the tongue is a fire. Ihe tougue can
no man tame." Surely it is no pleasant ex
nerieuce te ba scorched by tile Hot tongues
of the spinster and busy-body. Paul says
of these: '"And withal they learn to be idle,
wanderine about from house to houe, and
not only idle, but tattlers also, and busy
bodies, speaking things which they ought
not;"
Is Loafing Expensive? Tho crowd of
young men who are gruduates in the school
of loa?e:ism seems to bo st-vidily increasing.
How tho creatures live, how ihey dress, how

are very difficult questions to answer. Yet
they do al!, and anchor themselves so firmly
on their accustomed gazing places, day after
day, an 1 night after night, and month after
month, that not the lightnings from the
eyes of ill starred ladies, nor the thunder-
ingsof disgusted men can suffice to move
them to other and better anchorage ground-.
The gnle of public opinion brows heavily
against them, they doggedly ride out the
storm, and grow more hateful and ugly by
roasoa of their prolonged existence. We
often wonder if the professional loafer ever
reflects that it would cost him much less to
be a respectable, industrious man. A first-
class loafer follows his profession at the ex-
oense ot davs. weeks, niontiis, years, iits
entire time must be devoted to it. It costs
him fiiends, health, vigor, comfort, honor.
dignity, self respect, and finally all regret
and consideration when dead. So says an
exchange, and so say 2. But that is not
all; idleness leads to vice, immorality and
crime, and finally to the penitentiary or the
gallows. It would be a hundred fold better
if every idle boy or loafer was- engaged in
some useful occupation even though it be
no higher than a hod carrier or street scav
enger. It might save them from the peni
tentiary or the callows. Let those who have
idle boys put theai to some useful occupation.
How comparatively few there are who are
willing to toil on and wait for their reward.
Haste to become rich, baste to Achieve mil
itary honors, haste to obtain political emi
nence, and haste to win a literary reputation,
have ruined more business men, promising
soldiers, embryo statesmen, and gifted intel
lects than all other causes combined, and
this is especially true of Americans. "Learn
to labor and to wait," should be every young
man's niotto when he starts in life. Bide
your time, couple earnest work with patient
waitit;r, and the day will inevitably come
when your labor and patience will be reward
ed with success. Working without waiting
is as futile as waiting without working. Jn
one case in a thousand, success m secured,
but in the nine hnndred and ninety nine
others failure is the result. You may h ive
to labor lonp, and you tuny have to wait un
til human nature seeuis incapable of farther
endurance, but stick to it, and the end will
prove the full fruition of your hopes and as
pirations. Ducks enter the water for "divers" rea
sons, and come out for "sun dry" uiottves.
