We sink and shudder at tho surgeon's knife.
Each nerve recoiling at the cruel steel, :
Whose edgi! seems searching for the quivering life;
Yet to our sonic, the bitter pangs reveal.
That still, although the trembling flesh be torn,
This also can be borne,
'We sea a sorrow rising in our way,
.And try to flee from the approaching ill;
We seek some small escape • we weep and pray;
' But when tho blow doth fall, our hearts are still;
Not that the pain is of c itesharpness shorn,
But yet it oan - hi Vane.
We wind our life about another life; '
We hold it closer, dearer than our own;
Anon it faints and falls in deadly strife,
Leaving us sad, stunned, stricken and alone
But ail! we do not die with those we mourn ;
This illso can be borne.
Behold, through all things—famine, thirst,
, Bereavement, pain; all grief and misery,
All woo and sorrow; life inflicts its worst
On soul and body—but it cannot die,
Though wo hesicic, and tired, and faint, and worn
Lo I all things can bo borne.

Fourteen years ago I drove from Dan
ville to Littleton, a distance of forty
two miles, and us I had to await the
arrival of two or three coaches, I did
hot start until after dinner, so I very of
teh) bad a good distance to drive after
dark. It was in the dead of winter, and
the season had been a tough one, A
great deal of 8110 W bad fallen, and the
trifts were plenty and deep. The mail
hat I carried was_not due _at Littleton,
by the contract,l44l,lkqe.keelocit in the
Morning, but thativinfer the postmaster
was very often obliged to sit up a little
later than that for me.
One day in January, when I drove
up for my mail at Danville, the post
master called me Into his office.
" Pete ".sald lie,

A.: volume could be filled of the
strange delusions entertained by bad
Men—the remarkable pertinacity and
'cunning they display in carrying out
the whims of their disordered minds.—
In their wild freaks maniacs frequently
evince a method in their planning, an
adroitness and coolness that
' ,woulddo
credit to the shrewdest sane person.—
We give below. a .thrilling incident
which actually Occured as related, one
of the parties to it having beed a prom
inent army officer. '
When my regiment was mustered
out of service, bade adieu to my old
comrades, and to the army, and opened
an 'office in theflotirishing town of L—.
As I was starting for the supper ta
ble, on the evening of the third day af
ter my arrival, the office bell rang'vi
olently, and soon the boy came in and
said that a man wanted to see the doc
tor.
The visitor was standing by the fire
When entered: 'Be Was a tall, pow
erful perfect giant compared to
wy ' Alio foot six. ;' and his great bead
and busby black bair=were well fitted
to the aionstrouS form.
If you are at liberty; doctor, please
come with me. It is. bet a few steps,
and you. will not need a carriage.'
I put on my coat and hat and fol
lowed him. It was my drat call in
L-4-, and .1 fondly hoped it was the
forerunner of many others.
The man strode on a pace ahead of
mead the time, notwithstanding my
endeavors -to keep at his side, and he
spoke ; no‘.v. , worti„not even answering
my questions. .
idtopping before it substantial looking
residence on one of the • priucipai
streets, he applied the. latch-key, and
led me into a pleasant little room on
elle second floor, Cit study, I thought It,)
hung about with good paintings and
elegant chromos, and lined with books of
every name.
`Take a seat, doctor; - I will step out
a moment: Take this chair by the fire.
It is a bitter cold night.
The chair.was a; great utrwield thing,
but exceedingly comfortable. I threw
my feet upon the fender, and leaned
back on the cushion, very well satisfied
to :warm a little before seeing the pa
tient.
I heard the man approach the door,
which was directly baelt of where lent,
and heard the door open and close again.
I supposed he had gone out, but, did
not look around to see. Indeed, I had
no time, for a stout cord vyas thrown
over my wrists and across my breast;
and a handkerchief bound over my
mouth so quickly that I could make no
move to prevent it.
When. I was perfectly secure, my con
ductor steppe in ftput of me and
looked with much interest at my vain
attempts to free myself,
Good stout cord, isn't it?' he asked.

a stouter man than you has tried it.--
There, now, be quiet a while and I will
tell you what want.'
He went to a cabinet that stood in
the corner of the room, and taking a
long, wicked-looking knife .from one of
the drawers, ran his thumb over the
edge, and felt of the point, all the while
c„ thw 'nest common place
manner iniagitiable.
I have studied the art of guessing,
for years,' said lie. ' I can, guess any
thing ; that is my guessing chair that
you are sitting in now ;• and 1 take great
pleasure in imparting - JOT knowledge t;ci
others. This is what I want of you tO•
night. I did intend to make you guess
that, but I have thought of something
better.'
He had hCCOMC satisfied with edge
and point of his knife, and was pacin
up and down the room, giving me ft full
history of the world, interspersed with
facts relative to the
.art of guesF•ing, rat
which dines he always stepped in front
of me.
' Did you' ever study it, doctor?
know you haven't. lum the only one
that ever reduced it to a science. Since
I left my noble veterans, I have devo
ted my whole time to it; and now I
am about to initiate you into its mys
teries, if you are worthy.'
lie was standing before me so very

into his eyes, burning -with the Ore of
insanity, I felt my situation was des•
perute indeed.
I must test you," he said. I must
see whether you are ;naturally gifted or
not, bolero I waste: much time with
you, 'lf I remove the handkerchiel,
will you answer my questions?'
I nodded an aliirmative, anti be re
moved it.
'Now, my dear doctor, you are an
entire stlanger to use. Without doubt
you have often heard of me, but it viii

from all other great' men of the time.--

you fail, it will be your last guebs in'the
world.'
I dared not cry out; the knife was
too near; I could not escape, for tho
strong cords bound we to that chair
could not lilt, and I could not lie there,
and lose my life. What could I do?
'ltls a hard guess, and I will give
you three minuts, to answer it,' he
said.
I summoned all my courage, which
had never,yet failed me—even in the
awful hour of battle--and looking him
steadily in the eye, said:
' I know you, sir • so where is the use
of guessing? I Kaye seen you om, the
battle field marshalling your bostti to
victory. I have seen you cut down a
score of nidti with your own single
arm. I have seen you put to flight a
whole battallion. I know you—every
body knows you. Your name is iri'my
mouth.'
I remembered what ho had said
about leaving his veterans, and 'had
tried this harangue to divert his atten
tion. I paused to mark the effect.
Yes !—yes, doctor .But what is it,'
he screamed again. 'Thirty seconds!'
Great God! What would I not have
given for a clue to that madman's fan
cy ! Thirty seconds, and how short a
second is! The knife was raised high
er, that it. might gain momentum by
the distance. Ills body was braced for
the stroke, and MS - eyes upon the Mark.

There was only one hope for me, and
that was to guess. 1 felt that he con
sidered himself some great man; as he
had spoken of veterans, some great
military chieftain. 1 thought of our
own heroes and the names of many of
them were upon my lips, but I dared
not utter them. It was the greatest
chance game that I had ever played.—
Ay life depended on the guessing of a
name, I thought of all the European
generals, but cast them aside again and
eanid back to our Own side,of the wa
ter. '
t'two second's?' screamed the lunatic.
Without a thought, almost without a
volition, I spoke a name, breathing a
prayer that it might be the right one:
- Nop °lcon Bonaparte - 1'
Right!' said the madman, throw
ing aside Ids knife and undoing the
cords that held me'. I was mistaken'
in you, doctor. You have, true genins't
this is your first lesson; come' zet this
hour every evening and, I will teach
you the beautiful art—the way to im
mortal fame.'
As I arose froth the chair, Weak and
trembling, the door opened softly and
four, strong men entered - and secured
the maniac. I started for home well
pleased that I had got through with - my
first guessing lesson, and fervently
hoping I should never he called, upon
to take another.
It is one of the oddest points of dif
ference between man and woman that
woman has no first love. The long al
phabet of her affections is without any
distinct end or beginning; she mounts
_by insensible gradations from dolls and
kittens and pet brothers, to the zenith
of passion, to descend by the same in
sensible gradation from - the zenith 2•6 f
passion through pet brothers to tabby
cats. There is no such event as a first
kiss forms In a boy's life to mark for
womitti the translation from girlhood
to the sudden maturity of passion ; she
has been kissing and purring and fv
dling and petting from her cradle, aid
shk will pet and fondle and purr and
kill to her grave. Love, in the teclini-s
cahsenso of the word, is with her litti:.
more than an ilensifylng of her ordinary
life. There is no new picture, but the
colors are for the while a little height
cued and the tone raised. Presently
the, vividness of color will fade 'again,
and the cool grays lower the tone, anti
the: passion of life will have died away.
Int there will be no definite movement
at Which ono could fairly says that lOvn
ea e or went. A girl who is not.whis
pering in a lover's ear will always Pk.
trankly enough that she never knev•
what it was not to be in. love.
There is one obvious deduction which
she forgets to draw—that therd neve,
can be a time when she can know what
is to be in love. Hero and there, ol
course, a woman may be colder, orlate:
in development, or more self-conscious,
and may divide.by.morerigidly marked
lines the phases of her life. But even
then, if she be a woman at all, she can
have no first love. Feeling,, with wo
man, has no past, as it' has no fdturts 4 .
