EENA'S SITUATION. "Oh, I wish I were rich," said ltena Lewis, out aloud, in the lullnessof her heart. " I wish I could be a tine lady and play croquet in soft muslin edged with lace, and Fren ch kid boots, and wear real birds of paradise in my hat like Miss Clara." And leaning her elbows on the wide window seat she loosed down through the morning screen of Lamarque rose leaves at the merry party on the lawn below. Little llena Lewis' life had all -been one upward aspiration. She had no iilea where she was born. She only knew that they had found her in a has Ket on tne steps 01 me iwcas ruumiling Asylum," with a shawl wrapped around her, and a pair of bright brown eyes staring up at the sky. Slit* had been "bound out" at ten years old. and her unusual quickness and spirit chancing to attract the attention of her mistress, had secured her a good English education. "Rena," said Mrs. Brown, when she was seventeen, " you are too bright and intelligent for a mere servant-maid: you hav? more brains than arc needed for scouring pots and dusting chairs. How would you like to 1 ecome a teacher?" "Oh, Mrs. Brown," said she. "it is what I have always dreamed of." " Mrs. Alen was here yesterday." said her mistress; "she has a niece" living out at Georgetown Heights, who wants a nursery governess for her little girls. Salary 8^5 a month?duties light and agreeable. I think, Rena, you could teach two little girls their reading and spelling, and keep their ribbons fresh and their pinafores clean?" " Oh, I know I could!" cried the girl, with reddening cheeks and lips all garlanded with happy smiles. "But?my clothes: I've nothing but a dyed merino and two faded" calico dresses." " I'll see to that, my dear," said Mrs. Brown, kindly. "Ynu have worked faithfully for rue and you deserve :t present. I will give you an outfit; and I will tell Mrs. Alen. who has a few foolish ideas on the subject of social position, that you are the orphan child of a friend of mine. It's a little bit of a white lie. to be sure, but I don't think the recording angel will be very Hard 'on me for it. So Rena Lewis went to the handsome Italian v'illa on Georgetown Heights, and fancied herself in Eden. Mrs. Alen, the younger, declared herself delighted with the new governess. "She's so pretty," said Mrs. Alen, "and has such a soft, soaring voice, and Loo and Olie are 60 fond of her. And she dresses Clara's hair so exquisitely; better than any Parisian maid could do." for Miss Clara Alen, Mr. James Alen's cousin from the South, was there spending the summer, and it was Miss Clara's dresses. Miss Clara's jewelry, and Miss Clara's general dash and glitter that had awakened all these longing ideas in poor Rena's heart, especially since Harold Reede had begun to come there so much. Harold Reede was the handsome young rector of a neighboring cliuivii?tall, dark and distingue. ITt; had asked Rena Lewis to take charge ol a class in the Sunday-school; lie had escorted her home one rainy Sunday night, as courteously a< if she had been one of ;he royal princesses; and in her secret heart Rena thought him the best, the noblest and the most beautiful of human beings. Just as the big round tears were trembling on her eyelashes, behind thescreen of Lamar^ue roses, in trie still sunshine of the August afternoon, Miss Alen's voice was hoard echoing on the stairs. " Rena! Rena Levris! are you dead and buried, or what has become of you?" Rena started up hurriedly, brushing the dew from her eyelashes. " I am here. Miss Alen," said she. "Can you play croquet ?" imperiously called out the fair Clara. "A little." " Then come down at once," said Miss Alen. "Alice Harland tiresome thing, has gone home with a headache, and we want one more to finish the game. I don't suppose you are much of a player but you will do better than nothing." Little Rena Lewis, far to much elated by the prospect of croquet to pay much heed to the ungraciousness of the invitation. flew to put on her hat, and came blushing and smiling: down stairs like an animated daisy. Rev. Harold Reede, as it chanced, was her partner, and he thought he had never seen so fair and Iresh a creature as Rena. in garden hat. with nature's own roses on her cheeks, anu eves that shone like stars beneath their dark fringes. "Am I aiming right?" she said, timidly, with uplifted mallet, one tiny foot pressing the ball deep down into the grass. Mr. Ueede smiled. , "You could not have aimed more correctly," said he; and Miss Alen, who was watching them from the background, bit her lips and secretly regretted her haste in calling Miss Lewis to the rescue. "An artful, flirting little puss.'' thought slit. l>ut at this moment Mrs. Si.

" I mean her," said Mrs. St. Jerome pointing straight at poor blushing Hem with the handle of her pearl-and-silvei fan. "But you must be mistaken," sait Mrs. Alen. " She is riot mistaken." said Rena with burning cheeks. " I?I was Mrs Brown's servant-maid before I cam< here." Miss Alen recoiled from the cofitaeto Rena's fluttering scar.. Mrs. St, Jeronx sank upon a garden seat, with liei smelling-bottle pressed to her nose Mrs. Alen drew herself up haughtily. 'You never told me i hi:)," said she Rena's lips quivered, the tears rushed tc her eyes. " Was it any disgrace?" said she. " Of course you won't keep her," sak Clara. "Certainly not," said Mrs Alen "and I shali never forgive Mrs. Browi for "racticing such a deceit as this upoi me.1 lit tle Rena dropped her mallet on tlx grrt - and ran into the house, scarcel] waiting until she had reached her owr room, to burst into the bitterest tear! he bad ever shed. 1 j is such a cruel world!" six ?i w)iv will neoDle loot WUIM.U, \Ji*. ...v g f and speak so unkindly? oil, I wish thai I were dead!" She went back to Mrs. Brown, whc received her, ficruratively sneaking, with open arms. " If people will be fools, mj dear." said she, " it's no fault of yours, You shall stay with me until we car h*ar of another situation." But the one circumstance of all ths T?o?a m/iot qn rl wlu'oh frfln ! though she was, she could not confide t good Mrs. Brown, was the certainty ths j she should never see Harold Reede mon ; In this, however, it chanced that sh was mistaken. She had not been thre j days within the shelter of her old horn ; when Rev. Mr. Reede was announced Rena came blushing down to see him. "I?I thought you would avoid me, J she faltered, " after what happened n j the croquet ground." , "Avoid you?" repeated he. "Fo ; what do you take me. Miss Lewis I Stay a minute. Lot me speak. I hav I always admired you: but upon thn i afternoon I comprehended my own hearl 1 I knew then that I loved you." And Rena. in the blissful confusion i j her contending emotion, knew not wlisi answer to make. 44 So." said Mm Brown, shrewdly,44 we have no need t j look out fresh situations, eh? No sitiui ; tion like that of a wife, Rena." And all the brightness of Mrs. Ilarol , Rcede's life had its supplying fount fror tin- croquet ground, on Georgetowi Heights, where Rena Lewis suffered tha ! cruel humiliation. tt-T : That Barrel. Just as the last rays of the setting sui | were gilding the church spires am whitewashing the back kitchens of I)( troit the other afternoon a man and barrel were discovered :il a stairway o Monroe avenue. lie was a small ma: and it was a big barr. i, and pedestrian who saw him )ookin? up.the stairs am back at the barrel inferred that it wa j his intention to elevate it to the thin story.

A curious story of baby farming ii Baltimore came to light- a short ttm' ' since, and was told to a representative j of the Baltimore Gazette, with the under j standing that all names should be sup ; pressed. In the northwestern section o the eity, in a little by-street, there ha resided for over a quarter of a century ai i old woman who for many years ag j practiced Little Buttercup's art of bab; ' farming. Many of the little ones left ii j her care were, when a few months old ! entrusted to the charity of some infan asylum, and in after years entered upo: lives of toil and drudgery, while other oi the little proteges were adopted b miiies of affluence and raised as tliei ! own children. The history of one of th i latter is almost as marvelous as that <: I Captain Corcoran and Ralph. Som ! twenty-two years ago, on a dark an ' stormy evening, an elegantly-dresse woman entered the door of the neat litti house?the home of the old nurse?raj 1 pod and was admitted. In a few day ! she departed, after intrusting to the ol | woman a black-eyed girl baby. Year ; rolled on, and the pretty infant grew t j be a bright, beautiful girl.

Tli i yoiin<; ladv is now married and happyi the wife of one of the most valued am ' honored ol Baltimore's citizens. Tli slory is a highly romantic one, and h:i the merit of being absolutely true.

Superintendent Wright, of the Mussn chusetts Bureau of Labor Statistics, ha prepared a report ior me next ia-^iskiuh of that State. lie says that the numbe of convicts in 1878 in all the Siat prisons of the Union was 29,197, of whor 13,186 were employed in mechanical ir dustries. The greatest number was i New York and the smallest in llhod Island. Three systems of labor wer i found to be in practice. The lirst is tli ontraet system, which is ado pted ii Massachusetts and generally in tli Northern States, and which consists i selling the labor of the prisoners lor stipulated time and at a lixed price pe day to the highest bidder, the wor usually being done within the walls c the prison, under the supervision of a agent of the purchaser. The second i the lessee system, which consists i leasing convicts to a party for a speei lied sum per year, with the provisio that the lessee shall feed, clothe, an discipline the convicts, and indeed at tend to the entire work of their care an maintenance. This system is adopted i siime ofthe Southern Sums. Thethir . is the " public account" system, accord ing to which the officers of the priso [ purchase all the raw materials, manu \ iacture the goods anil sell them in th . open market tor the best price they ea; vrt, the same as any manufacturing ei tahlishmcnt. At tiie rate of forty cent per day, which was the average, tli Wiige-earnings for the whole yea . amounted to5>l,G24,51'i. At $0 per dn] which is the average price of simihi , iabor outside of prisons, these same me would have earned 58,122.576. Tliepri [ ducts of prison labor, if we take tl _ iabor at $2 per day, did not exceed $20 , (H)0,0(K) in 1878. wliile the products of a the mechanical industries of the Uniti , States amounted to live thousand mi r ''(,ns* _______ A Quaker Printer's Proverbs, i Never send an article for publicatic r without giving the editor thy name, f< thy name oltentimes secures public: 1 tion to worthless articles.
