LOVE AT SEA. loam-crested waves, from morn to night, That met all round the deep bluo sky, "With here and there a sail in sight. Which came, then vauithed to the eye. Our glittering wake shone far behind, A path of silver reaching back ; With shrill voice sang the salt sea wind ; The petrel hovering in our track. Linked arm in arm, when skies were fair. We trod the deck with thoughtless aim, Or sometime;', idly seated there, Watched the fair sails which went and came. Or, gazing down along the deep. We marked the long, dark, indolent swells, And saw the bounding porpoise leap, And heard on board the half hour bulls. Oh ! what to us was Time's swift flight Or Tiuie itself, beyond a name? Oh ! what to ua the noon or night. To whom all seasons were the same ? For love possessed our souls, and drew His rosy veil before our eyes. And, steeped in bliss, our souls looked throagh The open gates of Paradise. Left far behind the new world lay ; Dim, distant, shadowy and va.it, The old world rose before our way. Replete with records of the past. WThat time fair Hesperus, rising, gleamed In crimson deeps where sank the breeze, The red sun from the far west seemed To drop into the purple seas. And on the farthest verge of night Rose the full moon like some pale nun, Her face all wet with tears, and white. When the sweet vesper hymu is done. Or sailing on from Litih to higher. By skirts of silver shining clouds, She seemed at times a ball of tire. That struggles iu the tall, dark shrouds. On our side, spanned with quivering light. The phosphorescent ocean lay, And on the other, lost to sight, The shadowy waves stretched far away. And sometimes, Hkj a silent ghost. Dim outlined on the dark night sky, Some fair ship, from a foreign coast In distant seas would pass us by. Oh ! soft, still nittht ; oh ! calm, rich days, To which my thoughts like currents bend, In whose bright vrnlee my farvy plays. There is no voyage but Luth its end. One morn I woke to scent the breeze That over the English downs had swept ; And round our prow in slugsri.-di ease The waters of the Mersey slept. OHLY A CLERK. Cecile llorncr was tall and brilliant with deep hazel eyes, cheeks crimson ed with happy excitement, and heavy coils of shining brown hair shot thro ttnd through with arrows of dead gold tipped with jewels. Mury llorncr, her-quite little cousin, -was " as different from Cecile as light from darkness. She w.is slight and small, with big blue eyes that had all the wondering innocence of a baby's ia their azure light ; hair of reddish gold, and a complexion pure and deli cate as a pink japonic. ''Oh, mamma, it was perfectly de lightful at the party to-night !" rjacu ted Cecile, enthusiastically. "Every body was there. Mr. St. John wa3 there, and asked me to polka twice !" 'Did he?" questioned the gratified mamma. "I hope you invited Lira to call ?" "Of course T did. Mrs. Emraor.s says he belongi to the Virginia St. Johns, and is very rich. Such dia monds as he wear?, mamma ! Bat Ma ry's the favorite with hint I Jjink!" Cecile turned round and shook her finger with affectionate archness at blushing little Marv. O as "Don't, Cecil," pleaded Mary, as if every drop of blood in her cheeks was turning to fire. "It's all your fancy." "a-it? Then what are you blush ing celestial rosy red for?" "How ever, I mean to marry him if I can catch him I always did fancy t-iach. eyes ana bair like a what s it s "'-'s wing ? And then he's rich, and I am d- t.-iT.iined to have a rich hus band." ' - Miry Horner grew l ed and pale; 'ju ne l her rosebud lips and shut them -again without speaking. How wron,T it seemed for any one to talk in that jumner of Talbot St. John, when she only dared to think of Lim as a hero fcLriiied afar oST in the height of a chivalrous romance ? Mrs. Horner only laughed, however she was quite accustomed to Cecile's reckless chattery. "It's two o'clock and after, girls," she said, with a prodigious yawn. "Go f led, or you'll both be as pale as ghosts to-morrow." The girls went, and both of them girl-fashion, dreamed of Talbot St. Jhn. While that gentleman himself ''reamed of only one. Hie bright winter hrine was spark ling over tha newly faHen snow like a great universal alchemist, who dealt only in powdered diamonds of the very first water the sky was blue with the dazzling, wonderful blueness that you only see when the thermoneter is close down to zero, and Talbot St. John, guiding his blood-horses down the crowded thoroughfare, felt the thor ough enjoyment of living that makes life the sweetest of all luxuries. "Halloa !" lie reined up with an abruptness that brought the smoking horses on their haunches. "Grant Whyman ! old fellow ! come for a drive! It's the luckiest thing that I happened to meet you !" "Mr. St. John !". Poor fellow ! how keenly he felt his own shabbincss at that moment, as the dashing young Southerner leaned from his stylish turn-out, with cordial ex tended hand. "Come in with you, and we'll take a turn or two in the Park." "I cannot, Talbot my time is not my own." "Xot, your own ? What do you mean ?" "Perhaps you have forgotten per haps yon have not heard, said N by man, speaking hurriedly and confused, "that we are very much reduced. I I am a clerk in a trimming store, at ten dollara a week." "Indeed ? and what then ?" "You never were worldh Talbot," said the young man, smiling sadly ; "you don't argue like the rest of the world that our social lisparity " "Social humbug !" ejaculated Tal bot, impatiently jerking the rein, "jump in, Grant my horses won't stand !" "It is quite impossible, Talbot ; my employer " "You're as pale as a sheet blanch ed, just like a stick of celery. Where" is your place ?" Whyman felt himself crimsoning again, as he named an ob scure street where "cheap goods" were sold at cheap rates. "WVll drive there." Grant Whyman found himself, he scarce knew how, cosily established among the red velvet cushions by his friend's side, while St. John called out to the outside servant to stop them at the address his friend had so reluctant ly named. Johnson stared supercil iously. "Well, if I haint hevcry bit as good as a shop-boy !" he muttered between his teeth. "But Mr. St. John was al ways hodder than Dick's 'at-band !" "What are you going to do with me, Talbot?" asked Whyman, as his friend drew up in front of the tawdrily-dressed windows of the second-rate trim ming store. "I'm going to send you to the Park for a drive- you look as if you were in the first stage of a galloping con-v sumption." "Whyman smiled sadly. "You are very kind, but it is quite impossible, Talbot." Y'ct St. John knew in the very tonc3 of his voice how the poor young man yearned after the forbidden draught of sunshine, and exhilarating air, and de licious arrowy motion, lie made no answer, but threw the reins to Johnson and walked boldly into the store. "Quite out of the question, sir- quite," said the hooked-nosed proprie tor of poor Grant Why man's time. "Couldn't spare one of our young men, not if Queen Victoria was to come here after him it's entirely against the rules." Talbot St. John spoke to him in a low voice. That hot-blooded young Southerner was accustomed to having his own way and intended to make no exception in this instance. And the proprietor's face brightened in the gleam of golden reasons ! "Certainly, sir by all means. If ml ' W Mr. Whyman wishes to be absent an hour or two " "Hold your tongue!" interrupted St. John, stormingly. "Whyman must know nothing of our little business transaction. I shall take his place be hind your counter, if you please !" The kook-nosc man of ribbon3 bow ed and rubbed his hands fawningly. Grant Whyman could scarcely believe his own eye3 when he saw the young fellow of six feet two standing behind the counter, as calmly complacent as if his whole life had been spent among tape, ribbons, and hooks and eyes. The next moment Johnson was dri ving him away from the door with a flutter of fur robes and chiming of bells and springing horses that made him almost fancy himself among the delu sive shadowings of a delightful dream. And how fared Talbot St. John ? "Pretty well, considering," as the ladies say. Fortunately it was early in the day, and beyond a ew bargains in black pins, stay-laces and perfumed soaps he had very little to do. Pres ently, however the shop began to fill apace trade grew brisker and, Mr. St. John, found plentiful use for all the quantum of business talent that he possessed. "Have you any crochet-cotton ?" Down came half a dozen boxes of tape about Mr. St. John's ears the natural consequence of the start he gave on hearing the sweet, familliar sound of Cecile Horner's voice. . "I don't know that is, I'll sec Miss Horner !" Cecile opened wide her beautiful brown eyes. "Mr. St. John!" And Mary look ing very daisy-like iu a pink bonnot, with white flowers echoed the sur prised exclamation. "Why Mr. St. J-jhn ! I didn't know ." She stopped short, coloring as pink as her bonnet. " We did not know that you occupi ed this situation in life," said Cecile, haughtily finishing her cousin's incom pleted sentence. "Thank you I don't care about the cotton !" And Miss Horner swept out of the low-ceiled lit tle store, dragging Mary with her. "The idea !" she exclaimed, when they were once more in the street. "How dare Mr. Emmons deceive us so ? To allow me to dance with a common clerk!" "He is very gentlemanly, Cecile," meekly interposed Mary. "Gentlemanly! an an - individual who sells pins arid needles a clerk !" "but, Cecile, why can't a clerk be a gentleman?" "iHary, exclaimed uecile. hiijj nantly, "you havrt'trthc Spirit of a fly ! I do believe you like Mr. St. John now just as well as when you believed him the scion of an old Virginia family !" "Why shouldn't I" meekly asked Mary. "I think a clerk who sells pins and needles quite as good as a Vir ginian." " Well .'" said Cecile, throwing vol umes of scorn into one brief monosyl lable. ''I for one shall not recognize him in the future. You can do as yon like." And Mary walking by her stately cousin's side marveled at the strange rules and regulations of that arbitrary thing called "society," and rejoiced that she was not bound to swear alle giance to its dictates. "I dare say my tastes arc very com mon." thought Mai v. "But I can't help it." ."Cecile," whispered Mary, that same evening in her cousin's ear, "surely, that is Mr. St. John." Cecile looked in the direction of her cousin's eyes, out beyond the maze of waltzing couples to the tall figure ad vancing towards them. "The assurance of the man," she exclaimed contemptuously. "He never will dare speak to me." But he did dare, holding out a frank band a3 he spoke the stereotyped phra ses of greeting. Cecile Horner looked him full in the eyes with a glance that might have frozen him, and turned away without replying with a word or syllable. Tal bot St. John arched hi3 eyebrows a little and smiled. Mary ppoke up in the impulses of the moment. "Mr. St. John, please don't think I feel as Cecile doe3. Please shake hands with me ?" He held the soft little hand in his one moment, vi ith a singular thrill in his breast. "Are you unconventional enough to recognize the 'clerk,' Miss Horner? "I like yaw Mr. St. John," said Ma rv, innocently. "I don't care whether ml mt you are a clerk or not. His eyes brightened. "You like me, Mary. Is there no other word for my ears, Mary darling I don't dare to ask if you love me V Through the din of harp and violin and sounding horn, the miunc of his words reached her ear throagh the silver throb of waltz music her answer I came to him. "Oh, Talbot ! I thought I had hid- j den it my own heart." ! And their eyes met and they knew I that hereafter they should be all the world to each other. "To think that our Mary should en gage herself to a common clerk," said Cecile, ready to cry with indignation, a day or so subsequently. "My dear, I haven't the least idea what. you mean," said honest Mrs. Em mons. "Isn't she engaged to Talbot St. John?" "Yes, but he is ' "He is the oldest son of the St. Johns of C , Virginia. Have you heard of the great coal mines on the St. John estate ? An income of ten thousand a year at the very least !" "Mrs Emmons, you are mistaken. "Xo, I am not, my dear. His moth er was my schoolmate, and I have known Talbot from a child. Your cousin is in rare luck, for Talbot is one in a thousand.'' Then. Cecile llorncr, in a maze of doubt and perplexity, told of the ad venture in the ''Cheap Trimming store." Mrs. Emmons burst out laugh ing. k "I can tell you all about that," she said, merrily. "I'm in Talbot's confi dence." And she told the story how poor Grant Whyman had an invigorating drive in Central Park on the January day, and the heir of St. Johns had of ficiated in his stead. The moment she had gone, Cecile went straight up stairs and gave Mary a kiss. "You'ia a dear little sensible thing," she said, "and I'm glad you have cho sen such a husband." Nevertheless there was a secret, un defined bitterness in Cecile's heart to think that the rich prize had fallen to her little cousin's ljt! And Cecile knew it had been her own fault ! Young Men in Society. ,.lot ami virtuous young man, on first going into society, is apt to be sorely perplexed upon the question how to make himself agreeable to ladies. He need not be ashamed of his per plexity. Washington Irving, in one of his early sketches, confessed that a well-dressed lady was an object per fectly ''awful" to his young imagina tion. Wc were once acquainted with a gentleman of distinction itvpublic life, the father of several accomplished daughters, who could not, even at his fiftieth year enter a drawing room where ladies were present without em barrassment. It is a good sign for a young man to stand in some awe of the beautiful sex. A person of coarse and vulgar mind, who thinks more of him self than his best friends thinks of him, and knows little of the worth of a good woman's heart rushes fearlessly in where an Irving or an Addison would blush to tread. Bear this in mind, young gentlemen who blush and stam mer in the company of young ladies the girls are as much afraid of you as you are of them. You arc awkward in your manners you think. If you think so, it is likely your friends think otherwise ; for the really ill-bred fel lows that we have seen, never suspect ed their ill-breeding. And, after all, what is good breeding, but habitual good nature ? The simple fact that you wish to please is a proof that you possess or soon will acquire the power to do so. The good heart and well formed mind will soon give grace to the demeanor, or will so abundantly atone for the want of it, that its absence will never be noticed. Besides, the ladies that i3 the most of them like a man who is simple in his manners, provided that they see that there i3 substance and worth in him. Graceful manners and ready wit are as good as far os they go ; but be sure of this, oh, bash ful, blushing youth, that, in the society of ladies and gentlemen, you will pass, in the long run, for what you arc worth, no more, no less. The art of pleasing, therefore, is nothing more than becom ing an honest, kind, intelligent and highminded man. Such a man, be he as graceful as Chesterfield or awkward as a Caliban, all worthy women trust and love. A man died at St. Louis, recently and in his will, after stating that he never forgot a favor, left ?1,000 to an individual who, ten ycxrs hfore ran away with his wife. Not the Fellow. The other morning an elderly gen tleman started to walk up the C. & P. railroad track, from Bellair to West Wheeling. In the neighborhood of Whisky Run he came across three rough looking young men who were sitting on the ends of the ties of the road taking consolation and fusil oil by word of mouth out of a gallon jug. As our friend passed them, a youth of about eighteen, hailed him with, "Here daddy, come and get a drink." He was informed that hysting benzine was not one of the old man's accomplish ments, but he was not to ba put off in that way. Advancing with a volley of oaths flying from his mouth, he informed the old gentleman that he must drink or take a whipping. Just 113 the ruf fian got in striking distance of our old friend, the latter drew a revolver, which he cocked and held full in the face of the drunken rowdy. To say that the rough stopped doesn't half tell it. He could not have stopped more suddenly if lightning had struck him. 'Don't shoot, old fellow," he stam mered, as he recovered from his aston ishment. "I meant it all in friend' ship." "D n your friendship!" shouted the old fellow, now thoroughly excited, "Go get that jug and bring it here, or I'll blow vou to kintrdon come in a minute." The completely cowed ruffian obey ed. "Now break it on that railroad tie. Break it! Break it quick, or "be fore the old man could finish the sen tence the jug was in a thousand pieces, "JNow, you internal, darned mean cuss, get down on your knees and apol ogize, or I'll make your head like a pepper:box top." The fellow hesitated; but looking into the old man's eyes, saw that he meant business, dropped on his knees 111 the an; - mid uhjuutlj .yul.i for the outrage. . j Thinking him sufficiently punished, the old man walked peacefully on his way. As he went up the track he heard one of the fellows call out to the other : "I say, Bill, that ain't the man you were looking for, is it?" A teacher in a school that stood on the banks of a small river, once wish ed to convey to her pupils an idea of faith; While she was trying to ex plain the meaning of the word, a small covered boat hove in sight. Seizing upon the incident for an illustration, she exclaimed, "If I were to tell you that there was a leg of mutton in that boat you would believe me, would you not, without ever seeing it your selves." 'Yes, ma'am,' replied the scholars. 'Well,' that is faith,' said the school mistress. The next day, in order to test their recollection of the lesson, she inquired, 'What is faith V 'A leg of mutton in a boat, was the answer shouted from all pai ta of tho school-room. A Virginia mother-in-law, less pru-. dent than most of her kind, in the se lection of methods of annovance, fool ishly laid in wait for her daughter's husband in ghostly apparel expecting by this clumsy expedient to give him a fright as if a nervous system, ren dered callous to mother-in-law in the flesh, would be likely to quail before a disembodied apparition. The fchrcwd fellow had presence of mind enough to pretend he didn't rocognize her, and gave the supposed spectre a sound drubbing. Luck v dog! There are few- fellows to whom such a golden oppor tunity offered itself. There is reason to believe that some of the prevailing blonde chignons are made of the 'light fantastic tcic.1- An ingenious mode of transacting the dueliii'jr business susjfrested bv an English novelist is for the combatants to swallow poison and then toss up for an emetic. Always do as the sun docs look at the bright side of everything ; it's just as cheap, and three times as good. Down cast editors say that since the recent rains the fanners 'are smiling like shingles on a patched roof.' AW. WALTERS, Attoiubt at Law, . Clearfield, Pa.
