The Summer day 'hobo hot sad calm,
The Soiltsuer noon drooped herb and tree,
The cedars yielded bnisibs of bent,
In silence shunbered load sad set; •
The verdurous branches smattered shade
Above a group of pastoral rest ;
A stalwart shape in quiet laid
Upon the cool oarth's kiadly IKeast.
Another form, of tendr mold,
Beside him spread a nheperd's fare,
In rippled rings her trefiales rolled,
A careless miss of glittering hair
From rurtic vessel filled with food,
She served the simple, brief repast
Sweet idyl of the solitude,
That caught wy vision as I passed '
Oh line array of poesy '.
This lovely idyl's milted truth
Was outhiag but an apple tree,
And underneath 1111 Trish youth
A ragged man who rests at noon ;
Ilia red-haired wife sat on a rail,
And watched him, witionVfork or spoon,
Eat, dinner from an oJelinpall•
lie ate It U. and filled a pipe.
Nor noticed her by mile or frown ,
She 'tole at, apple all netripe,
Shut up the pail, and walked to town
do altt. the classic idyls out.
Ftum words, and glosses overlaid
-1 nut Damon is a Helios lout,
Vier Daphne is a chambermaid
Is then the poet knave or fool 1
The fool of words, the laughing knave
Or does his sight transcend your rule, ;
And beauty froth the abysses save! s j w. r

From Ow AtlatUt Meathlly. '
Why did the Governess Paint.
We were all sitting together in the eve
ning, and my Dieter Fanny had been read
ing aloud from the newspaper. For my
father's benefit she had read all the polit
ical articles, and all about business, till he
said he had heard enough, and there was
nothing in the papers and then be left the
room. So Fanny loglied over the marriages
and deaths, and re. about the weather in
. New York and Chbiagoi and some other
things that she thought Would interest us
while we were sewing. Suddenly I looked
up where Miss Agnes was sitting, fkr away
at the other end of the room. She was
leaning back in her chair, and all in a trice
went I thought she kiolekti white as though
she had fainted. I did not say a word, but
got tip and wept quietly towards her,,
found she bad fainted quite away, and her
lips were pale and her eyes shut. I °peek
ed the window by her, for the night' woo
cool, and all the windows were closed'
There come in a little breeze of fresh air,
44... - aa I • ..• -
When I returned, I found Agnea reviving
a little. The air and the water served to
revive her, and very gradually she came
hack to herself. As she opened her eyes,
she looked at me wonderingly, then round
the room, and then a shudder came over
her, as it' with a sudden, painful memory.
I'm Letter—thank you for the water."
she said; anal then she rose u e and went to
thi , window, and leaned against the eage
ment. I had a glimpse of her face; so said

taught Mary and Sopiiy and me. Fanny
was too old to be taught by her, and had
an Italian master, and a French teacher;
but she practiced duets for the piano with
Mks Agnes, and read with her, for Agnes
ea.. a favorite everywhere. She bad a LWeI
word for everybody, and listened kindly to
all that was said to her. She talked to
everybody at the sewingsocietles, had some•
thing to say to every one, and when she
came home she had' always something to

never could succeed in snaking my little

Miss Agnes did. I have tried it often since,
but I always fail. Only the other day, I

and came home delighted a ith my piece of
news. She was going with her husband ;

were to be gone six months. and I even
knew the vessel they were ,going in, and
the day they were to sail. My intelligence
was very quickly told. Miss Agnes and
many others would have made a great deal
more of it. I had no sooner finished the
Fanny said, "Who is going to take care
the children she leaves at home?" I never
thought to ask ! I was disappointed—My
news was quite imperfect; I might as well
not have tried to bring any news. But it
was never so with Miss Agnes. I believe
it was because she was really interostedin
what concerned others, that they always
told her willingly about themselves; tOul
'though she was never inquisitive about Oth
ers' affairs, yet she knew very well all that
wits going on.
So she was a most valuable member of
home circle, and was welcome, also among
our friends. And we thought her beaatt
ful,.too. She was very tail and slender, and
her light brown eyes were cif the Color

Before we had time to think, he had said
Something to eftehione of us, and Lad left

Agnes, but she had fallen to the ground
before we wad teach hes.
She was ill, very ill, foe along time. She
had the brain fever, so the doctor said.—
They let me stay frith her ; she liked to
have me with her.' I was glad to sit in the
darkened room alb the long day. I never
Waika "handy" child, but I learned to be
useful to her. I waited on all her wants.—
I held her hand when she reached it out
as if to meet some kindly touch. In the
quiet of her room I had not heard the grmt
piece of news—of !the terrible railroad so
cident i that Mr., Carr, the Ernest, who
had been to see Miss Agnes, was among
those who were anddenly killed the very
day he left our house ! I had not . heard
it; so I was not able to warn Fanny, when
she come into the sick room of Miss Ag
nes the first day she was able to talk ; I
could not warn Fanny that she must not
speak of it. But she did— How could she
be so thoughtless ! Miss Agnes, it is true,
looked almost well, and she was lying on
her couch, a soft dolor in her cheeks. But
then Fanny needmot have told her any
thing so painful., Miss Agnes looked quite
wild, and turned to me as if to know
whether it was true. I could not say any
thing to her, but- I knelt by her, and she
seemed almost calm, as she asked to know
ail that was known--all the terrible par
ticulars that Fanny knew so well.
She was worse After that. We thought
she would die one night. But she did not
die. Either she was too weak or too strong
to die of a broken heart. Perhaps she was
not strong enough to love so earnestly such
as Mr. Carr, or else she had such strength
as could bear thti trial that was given her
to bear. She lived, but life seemed very
feeble in her forit long time.
One day she began to talk with me.
" You would like to know, Jennie, the
story of that ring," she said.
I " I told her I *as afraid to have her talk
it about it, but she went on:

history is bill .of stories about this ring.
it There are so missy tales connected with it,
le that every one of us has looked upon it
with a sort of superstition, and cherished
it as a sort of talisman connected with our
lives. It was tdways a test of constancy,
and the stories Of those occasions when it
has detected falsehood have always been
remembered. I suppose there are many
when it has been quietly worn, undisturb
ed, that have fergotten. It has told many
a sad" tale in m own family. It came back,
broken, to my brother Arthur, and he died
of a broken heart. My sister Eveline gave
it to her young cousin, to whom she' en
gaged herself. But afterwards, when she
went to live with a gay and heartless aunt
o nal l Ape n VlVI ißa er Aomin!ol . km for
she was married, our cousin far away saw
the black letters turn red upon the signet
rin g.
" Oh' Miss Agnes!" I exclaimed.
" And why should not letters change?"
she asked, abruptly; and I saw her eyes
look out dreamily, as if at something I did
not see. "The letter clothes the spirit, and
the spirit gives life to the form. A. face
grows lovely or unlovely with the spirit that
lies behind it I cannot say if there be a
spirit in such things. Yet what we have
worn we give a value to. It has anexpres
sion in our eyes. Do we give all that ex
perience, or has it some life of its own?"
She interrupted herself, and went on:
" I had known that Ernest was not true
to me. 1 had known it by the words he
wrote to me. They did net have the ring
of pure silver ; there was a clang to them.
When Fanny read aloud the loss of the
ring. it spoke to a suspicion that was lying
in the depth of my heart, and aroused it
into life. My little Jennie, I was very sail
then.
" You do not know how deeply I loved
Ernest Carr. Youdonorknow how I might
have loved your brother tieorge—les, the
noble,upright George. He loved me and
treated me tenderly ; he found this home
for me. I did not banish him front it—he

my last meeting with him ; but . his fate
seems to rue notso.awful as the fate towards
which ho was hurrying—the life which
could never have satisfied him."
She left oft speaking, and dreamed on,
her eyes and thoughts far away. And 1,
too, dreamed. 1-fancied my brother George
coming home, and that he would meet
with that ring somehow. I knew it must

the middle a tn , 1858, thi ears were
very crowded, my companion in the
same seat with me I found ant to be a lo
comotive engineer, and in the course or
our conversation, he made 'the remark
that he hoßed he had ran his last trip upon
is locomotive.
Upon =kiln; bold to ask the
reasons,
he gave me the following story, and
since then I hare found it to be strict
ly true : •
"Flve years shwa I was running upset
the N.Y. C. R. IL My run was front B--
to R— L-. It was the Lightning Express
Train, and it was whet its nazi. denotes,
for it was fast-4 very fist run, and If do
say old Tommie could 4 0. I bore
seen her throw her six foot drover so as to
be almost invisible to the eye. And let
me here remark, it is supposed by many
that railroad engineers are a hard-hearted
set °rime ; their lives are hard, 'tis true,
but I do claim to haves* fine feelings, and
a heart that sympathises with the unfortu
nate, as any man that breathes. But to my
story.
"About half a mile from the village of
B— there is a nice little cottage but a
few feet from the track. At that time a
young married couple fired there. Tim
had one child, a little boy about four years
old, a bright, bliek eyed, curly-headed lit
tle chap as you ever saw. I had taken •
great deal of interest in the little fellow,
and had thrown candy and oranges to him
from the train, and I was sure to see him
peeping through the fence when my train
pulsed.
"One fine sunny afternoon we wets be
hind time and running fast, nor did we
stop at B—, and I war to make up one
hour before reaching R—. We came up
at a tremendous speed, - and when sweep
ing around the curve, my eye following
the track, not over two hundred feet ahead
eat the little fellow playing with a kitten,
%chicly he held in his lap. At the sound of
our approach ho looked up and laughed,
clapping hie little hands in high glee at the
affrighted kitten as it ran from the track.
Quicker than the lightning that blasts the
tall pine upon the mountain top, I whistled
"dozen brakes," and reversed -my engine,
but knew it was impossible to stop. No
bly did the old engine try to save. The
awful straining and writhing of its iron
drives told but too plainly of 'the terrific
velocity we had attained. I was out of the
cap window and down on the cow-catcher
in a flash. The little fellow stood still. I
motioned hues off and 'shouted ; his little
black eyes opened wide with astonishment,
and a merry laugh was upon his lips. I
held my breath as we rushed upon him,
made a desperate attempt to catch him,
but missed, and as his little body passed I
heard the feeble cry of "mother," and the
forward trucks crushed his body to atoms.
"0, God, that moment! I may live, air,
to be an old man, but the agony of that
moment can never be erased from my
memory. The carsstopped some ,rod s
from the spot, and I ran back as soon as
possible. His mother saw the train stop
and a fearful-foreboding flashed upon her
at once. She came rushing frantically to
the spot where we stood. Never shall I
forget the look she gave me as she beheld
hetrtfirst-borri a shapeless mass. I would
have given my whole existence to have
avoided that moment ! I have seen death
in all its forms upon railroads ; I hare seen
men. women and children mangled and
killed—l have seen all this, but - that little
innocent boy as he looked up in my face,
Der~'C(l me, anti trom in,avaprmildri
solemn vow never to run a locomotive
more.
"That young mother is now in thefUtica
Lunatic Asylum. Erom the hour her boy
was killed reason had left its throne." He
stopped and wiped the tears from his eyes,
'and said, "You may think it weak of me to
,shed tears, but I cannot help it." "No,"
I replied, "but think it noble ; and, air,
would to God every man had a heart as
l arge a s yours." I have often thought
since how few are those who give one pas
sing thought to the man of strong nerve
antra stout arm, who guides them through
darkness and storms, with the speed of
the wind, safely to their journey's end.—
,They do not , for a moment, turn their at
tention to the iron monster that is drag
ging them forward, with fearful velocity, to
meet friends or relations. They do not re
alize that the man who guides the fiery
monster holds all their precious lives at his
command, and that the least negligence
upon his part would cause sorrow and
mourning in ft thousand homes that are
now waiting the return of the absent loved
ones.—( lentland &mew.
Truly wonders will never cease, and
must forever increase. Within a few days
we have heard of the "double-headed girl"
who has been seen and examined by thou
sands, the "horned mortal" who has been
looked at by hundreds. We have now to
record, on the authority of G. 11. Smith of
this city, that a man named Karl Saul, who
was born in the Five Points five and thirty
years ago, has four eyes in his head, two
to frontand two behind. Mr. G. H. Smith
thus speaks
_of this wonder Saul is
man of ex Creme diffidence, and the pe
culiarity of his vi.ual construction has been
carefully concealed, and has heretofore
been known only to some of his most in
timate friends. The back of the head is
quite fiat, but he ham long hair which ef
fettually conceals the large eyes, which are
generally protected by a bandage. He
rives in a rough neighborhood, and gener
ally remotes the bandage when he is out
late. Mr. Saul will stand in the middle of
a street and read the signs on both sides
srithout4urning. He will read from a book
held wet° the back of his head as well-u
one held up to his face. lie will Wink at
once with his beck eyes the same as with
the others, and in a word all his eyes are
perfect." After that interesting fact we
have perhaps no right to mention the mon
trashy of a child born last week in Law
rence, Mass., with a oat's head. But as
4te tale has slipped out, the reader has
only to know that the child did not lire
