FOREVER THINE.
BY J. AL'fiUBTINE SIGNAIOO.
Ill dreamland or at noon of day,
Will be this heart of mine,
I'esidethce, or when far away
Forever thine!
In halls of pride or humblest oot,
On land or on the brine,
Thou art ne'er by this heart forgot
Forever thine!
In scenes of sorrow or in glee,
This heart to thee will twine,
As ivy clings unto the tree
Forever thine!
Ah, yes! unto my latest breath,
This constant heart of mine,
Will pulsate even unto death
Forever thine!
And when from earth this soul i.i free,
And has been made divine,
In bli5S of Paradise 'twill be
Forevei thine!
This heart and soul are thine alone,
That at their only shrine;
On earth or to Elysium flown
Eternal thine!

I have a mind to tell a little story.
That it is brief may be seen at a jilunre,
and that it is true I most emphatically
avow. It the reader despises it be

: for the reason ut the last, then will 1

With this mi lerstandiiiij I proceed
at once to ren.ark that five years ago, or
thereabout, John Ainshy or 'Pap

ed a living by ctnvpying miscellaneous
parcels from one section to another, and
receiving therefor the reasonable reinu.
neration ot fifty cents per load.
1 o designate tho occupation in the
prosiest language possible, he was a
hand eartman. and when not employed,
could always be found during working
hours at the corner of Montgomery and
California streets.
His hair and long beard were quite
gray and his limbs feeble; and it he
could not shove as heavy a load throuuh
the deep sand or up the steep grade
above him as the stalwart Teuton on the
opposite corner, thereby losing manv a
dollar, all the light louds in the neigh

"Do you never drink ?" said I.
'Very seldom," he replied, dropping
into a chair at my request, and wiping
the prp ration from off fis forehead.
'Well, it you drink at all," I insisted,
"you will not find in tho next six months
as fair an excuse for indulging, for you
seem fatigued and scarcely able to
stand.'
"To be frank," said the old man, "I
do not drink any now. I hi.ve not lis

since since "
"Since when ?" I asked, thoughtless,

The old man told mo that sixteen

bowing his face in agony. "I have not
tasted liquor, nor have I seen my child."
I regretted that I had been so inquisi

sympathy I really felt, for him. After
that I seldom pased the corner without
looking (or ' Pap Ainsley, ami never

I One chilly, drizzling day in Decem

gering a moment, the lady did not seem
to surmise the reason, until he politely
informed herthat her husband (for such
he took him to be) had probably by
accident neglected to settle for the

"Very well. T will pay you." said tho
lady, step ting into an adjoining room.
She returned, and, stating that she had
no smaller coin in the house, handed the
old man a twenty dollar gold piece. He
could not tnakt the change.
"Never mind I will call to. morrow,"
said he. turning to go.

A Remarkable Story. .
In the Bte.itnship Uellonn, Cspr.
Dixon, were two steer.tgo passenger,
concerning whom a thrilling incident
is related. Frani Meyer, aged 23 and
his wife, Atitm, aged 10, from Contoa
Soleure, Switzerland, were passenjrera
in the ill fated ship William Nelson, !
cently destroyed by fire at sea. In th
confusion incident to the efforts to savo
life, tin! husband mid wife were seps,
tated. The husband was picked up by
one of the ship's boata. which was soon
fallen in with hy the brig Mercury.
The wife, young and niv iule, w is not
ilWcnnrnged at the uncertainty ot her
hiishand'a fate, but prepared for her
own ;a:fe'y. Self preservai ion could not
suppress her womanly instincts so far as
to ignore the feeble criex for help from
an infiiit only 14 days n'd left to perish
by its distracted parents, but regatdles
of her own state she plungi d, with her
self imposed charge, into the se,i. For
two whole das did th;s brae young girl
support herself uud the infant on the
remnant of a ship's spar, without food or
I water, sustaining I he infant's lite by the
! HiriiiiiK from Iter ow i m-mth !
Late on the second day the same ves
sel in which her husband was saved,
having ceased cruising, without hope
of rescuing more life, tell in with this,
hproine, and saved her and her littl
charge. Eventually the family were
landed at Havre, France. The Prus.
sian Consul nt that port took the charge
ol the infant, as its parents were sup
posed to have been lost with the wreck.
Many ladies at Havre interested
themselves to enable this brave young
creature, with her husband, again to
venture to cross the Atlantic in search
of a Western homo. Destitute of every
thing necessary us an outfit, having lost
all the kindoes3 of the ladies at Havre
was doubtless most acceptable, and oa
the Bellona, although poverty was ap
parent, a remarkable cleanliness in the
family was quite noticeable.

recent voyage in the Bellona, gave birth

An exchange tells this story
"While Gen Grant was making his
trip to Montreal, it was ciiiiently re.
ported at Manchester, N. II., thtt he
i would pass through that city, over the
the Cone ird Riitruad. So the waggish
, ticket-master at the station informed a
I few friends, one morning, that General
Grant was expected on tho afternoon
1 tiain. Accordingly at that time a large
I crowd assembled, uud when the train
i Came they were gr.itili -d with the sight
' ot a large, new engine, bearing the
n line of to- tutate soldier. Among the
victims ot this misplaced curio-iity was a
j ic -e lawver, familiarly known as 'Sam,'
who hadset-u the gener il be.forj. though
we presume the gener il had never 'seen
Sam.' This apostle of B!acktone saw
the engine and the sell at the same tima,
