I remember Meeting you In September, Sixty-two, We were eating, Both of us; And the meeting Happened thus: Accidental, On the road (Sentimental Episode), I was gushing, You were shy; You were blushing So was I; I was smitten, So were yon (All that's written . Here is true); Any money? Not a bit.. Rather funny, Wasn't it? Vows we pligbted 11appy pair! How delighted People were! But your father To be sure Thought it rather Premature; And your mother Strange to say Was another In the way. What a heaveri Vanished then (You were seven, I was ten)! That was many Years ago Don't let any Body know. [WRErTEN FOR THE N)WBERRr H ERALD.1 AT LAST. -0 BY CLYDE WAYNE. -0 For ten years had Sadie been true and loving wife. Loving did I say? And yet*there wer moments when a memory of tb past would haunt her, and a fee ing that her love had bee bought overshadow her peae( And now she was standing besid the bed and hearing these drea words from the old physician. 'Be brave, my boy. You hav only a few days to live.' 'Ah, Dr.! It .is hard to die an leave her.' Sadie heard in a dazed wal and burying her face in her hanc she kneeled beside her huBband bed, and as the old man left thei alone, she burst into an unco, trollable anguieb. 'Oh Carlton l' she cried, 'I cai not give you up ! You must n< leave me, my husband.' He put one bot hand on tb bowed head before he answerec 'But, my darling, if it is God will we must submit in patienc But, Sadie, who will care for ye when 1 am gone ! You have bee a true wife to me in all thet years. But-you will not min speaking of it now-I on< thought you loved anot.her. knew he loved you, and would ai ways love, for Dean Harringtc was a man who would love bi once and deeply. And if he shonl ome to yoagmember I am' 'Oh Carlton, of what are yc speaking. Do not pain me by a lding to the past. He will neve come again. I sent him away she cried, the pent-np love of Iorn years at last finding vent. These were strange words to 1 uttered to a husband, hut Carltc Wayne's brow did not once clot or his loving eyes wander fro the face of his wife. 'Don't cry now, Sadio. Y< could not help it. And I am blame. I came in his way at stole your heart while he wi away ; and when you awokei tbe full realization of your fet ings it was too late, you were it wife. I have reabt your hear Sadie, ebild. Have read all yoi brave struggles to overcome th; love. And now you will sooni free, and Dean will c>me back you, and you will be happy.' With white, set face, Sad had heard him through, at when he had finished and dre her gently to him she burst in an uncontrollable sobbing. 'Oh Carlton, how can you lo' me when I have been so basi Oh, my husband, forgive me ! I deed 1 bave tried, have prayed, ob, so earnestly, against it. My husband-my own !' Shame and sorrow dyed her fair check as she nestled close to him. He softly lifted the full round face and looked long and lovingly into the dark eyes that were downcast. 'Sadie, I bave nothing to for give, darling. No truer wife has ever blessed a man's heart. And it is only of you I am thinking. You will be left alone. Promise me darling, that you will not, through a mistaken idea of duty, refuse to be happy when I am gone. Dean will come back-I feel it-and he will come to you. Promise me, Sadie.' 'No, Carlton, I cannot promise you that. And God forgive me that I have lived a lie.' Slowly the hours drag on, and Sadie watches them as they surely ebb out the life pulse of her husband. Oh the agony of feeling him slipping away and being powerless to stay the part ing hour! And then it was over! She was alone in the world, and a great feeling of her loss and a shadow of remorse, that he had so easily read her heart, possessed her. She could not bear to stay in the great, gloomy house now. Everything about the place brough back a remembrance of the dead, and at last she could stand it no lon ger. Hasty arrangements were made, and again she turned her face to the little village home from whence she had come ten years before. Her aunt met her as she left the train, and for the first time in many weeks Sadie gave vent to a torrent of tears. 'Dear child, you must not cry so. Aunty knew you would come again to the home-nest. And I have your own little roogi ready for you. I am so glad you have come,' the dear old lady said, pushing aside the long black veil and placing the soft, motherly band on the hot brow just as she used to do in her infancy. How unchanged the old place e seemed. Even the elder bushes were still strurgling over the low d whit gat white gate just as they were on that evening when she had met Dean Harrington and told him she was married. She could well remember the stern, bitter curve of his lip as he said : 'Then, Sadie, good-bye. And may you be hap py.' And then he had gone away and for tbe first time the truth broke upon her. Her hand be. longed to Carlton Wayne but her heart to Dean Harrington. And then they entered the lit. tIe room that had always been her own. aTruly time had nct left its traces here. The tiny toilet table estood where she had left it, and every picture still hung in its old eplace. Even the snow -whbite cur tans were looped back with the .same pink bows she had made. A quiet repose seemed to settle on her feelings, and she and Aunt Nina would sit for hours in the little boney-suckle arbor, Sadie reading some favorite poem while the other's deft fingers would ply the knitting-needle. And it all seemed so like the old days that were it not for the black robes, Sadie would almost fancy herself the same light girl of yore. And almost unconsciously she began to think of Carlton's words. a'Dean will come back to you,' and her heart would beat quickly at the sound of the door-bell only to be disappointed each time. ,The year of mourning was at .an end, she wore some soft gray material that well became the ,slender figure. One evening she rwas sitting alone ini the arbor a tbook of poems on her lap. But she dlid not read. Her bandi were clasped idly on .bher lap while a tear stole softly down ethe full red cheek. dShe did not look up at the sound of a foot-fall, thinking it owas Aunt Nina. Bat directly she felt a hand on her shoulder, and lifting her head she saw a tall, !bearded stranger beside her. And tenn she recnonized him,and with a glad cry of 'Dean you have come!' she sprang up: But tbe next moment she had shrank back blushing hotly. At last he spoke: Sadie, you will not welcome g me T he said looking steadily into the brown eyes. 'I am glad to see you, Dean,' C she Raid, extending her hand, 1 which he took, and seated him- d self beside her. 'Is that all, Sadie? Or were you r not looking for meT he said, a pained look crossing his face at h her coldness. -And suppose I were, Dean,' she asked, not looking at him. it ,,Then, Sadie, I would dare to w hope. Shall I stay ?' he asked, this time taking her hands in his n own large ones and trying to see 8 the face under the broad hat. She did not reply at once and a n tear dropped on his hands as he held hers. r" In a moment he had dropped w them and stood up looking at her. b 'Forgive me, child, I had. not meanfiW * "Pain you. "Birt; oh a Sadie 1 I have waited so long. If 8 you could only love me just a lit tIe. I never meant to trouble d you again. But I could not resist L the temptation of seeing you once M again.' I He stood looking down ather b awhile, a wistful expression stole b over her features, and at last she a reached out her band and he took a it quickly. 'Oh, Dean I I cannot send you away; I am so lonely,' she said, 0 ai he bent and kissed the blushing face. -God bless you, Sadie. And you will learn to love me, for my whole life shall be devoted to your happiness.' 'No, Dean, I will never learn to love you. I have always loved a you, and he knew it, though God b knows bow I prayed against it. It was the memory of his kind ness to me that caused my tears. And somehow I feel like-I would be doing wrong to marry again.' 'Do you think I cannot make you happy, Sadie T 'I know vou will. And, oh e Dean! We mumt remember we owe it all to him. He told me be would be willing.' a c MUsK. a Musk is a concrete substance, h found in an animal having a near affinity to the deer tribe, a native c of Thibet, China and Siberia. The i musk deer is a timid animal, and a rarely appears during the day ; 't consequently the musk collectors 3 watch and surprise it at night. The best musk comes from China, b and to have it genuine it should v be purchased in the natu.ral pod 2 or bag, as it is very often adul- I< terated. The Bengal musk is in- t ferior, and that from Russia the t worst of all. The hair on the pod t of the best musk is a fawn color ; fi that on the inferior a dirty white. A variety of musk is found la in the musk-rat of Canada, an ani- s mal about the size of a small rab- ( bit. Musk is of a bitter taste, and of an odor more powerful than anything known ; substances in itsd neighborhood becnme strongly in feted by it, and, when once per fmed with it, long retain the scent. I It has been known to affect chest;s. of tea placed at a considerable1 distance, even though both had been packed up in leaden boxes, for which reasor, the East India Company gave an order not to I import musk and tea in the same ships. Many persons dislike the odor. It has t'he property, when employed in ver-y small quantities, of augmenting the scent of otheri substances, wi'thOut imparting its own. It is not good to be angry with those who may seem with ma lcious intent to assail our cher ished beliefs. . few burningi weeds may produ.ce smoke enough to hide the stars, but the starsI are shining all the same. It, is not wise to vex and w-eary ourselves by angry denuncis..tions of the smoke which will. aoon, pass off without our labor THE BRIDAL MANDKEK CHIEF. We all prepared to go to the ,edding. I was going, fatber was Ding, the gals was going and e was going to take the baby. at come to dress the baby, I )uld not find its little shirt. d laid a clean one out of the rawer a purpose; I knew jest here I'd put it, but come to look >r it, it was gone. 'For mercy's sake,' says I, 'gals, Ds any of you seen that baby's iirt ?' Of course, none of 'em had seen and I looked again; but it an't nowhere to be found. 'It's the strangest thing in all iture,' says I; 'here I had a iirt in my hand not more'a ten inntes ago, and now its gone, )body knows where ! Gals,' said 'do look round, can't ye ?' But fretting and fu ming ouldn't find it ; so I went to the areau and fished up another iirt, and put it onto the baby, 3d at last we were ready for a art. Father had harnessed up the )uble team, and the gals were all %ving a good time going to see ary Ann married ; but somehow couldn't get over that baby's iirt. 'Twant so much the shirt, it to havs anything sperrited way right from under my face id eyes, 'twas too provoking. 'What be you thinking about iamma?' says Sophronia. 'What Lakes you so sober?' 'I'm pestered to death thinking )out that baby's shirt,' says I. )ne of you must a took it, I'm Lrtin,' says I. 'Now ma,' says Sophronia-says ie, 'you.needn't say that.' And, as I had laid it onto 'em good many times, they were -ginning to get vexed, and so e had it back and forth all about ie baby's shirt, till we got to the edding. Seeing company kind o' put it ut of my mind, and I was get ng good natur'd again, thougb couldn't help saying to myself, very few minutes, what could ave become of that baby's shirt? il they stood up to be married, nd I forgot all about it. Mary Ann was a real modest reature, and was more'n half rightened to death when she ame into the room with Stephen, nd the minister told 'em to jine ands. She fast gave her left and to Stephen. 'Your other hand,' says the linimter, and poor Steve, he ras so bashful, too, he didn't know rhat he was about ; he thought was his mistake, so be, gave ary Ann his left hanid. That wouldn't do anyway, but *y this time they didn't know hat they was about, arid Mary Enn jined her left hand with his aft, then his left with her right, hen both their left bands again, ill If was all in a fidget. and ought they never would get ixd. Mary Ann was as red as atur :ey, and to make matters wuss he began to cough-to turn it if, if s'pose-and called for a glass f water. The minister had just been Iriking and the tumbler stood ight there. I was so narvous, and in such 'a unrry to see it all ever with, that ketched up the tumbler and run vith it to her; for I thought to ~oodness she was going to faint. he undertook to drink. I no not know how it happened, >ut the tumbler slipped, and, gra ious me I if, between us both, e didn't spill the water all over ser collar and sleeve. I was dreadfully frustrated, for t looked as though 'twas all my aut, and the first thing I did was o out with my handkerchief and give it to Mary Ann. It was nicely done up. She Look it and shook it out. The elks had held it pretty well up to his time, but then such a giggle wd laugh as there was. I didn't know what had given them such start till I looked and see, I'd give Mary Ann that baby's shirt!I (Here Mrs. Jones, who is a big, eshy woman, undulated and4 shoo lik a mighty jelly, with mirtm; ana iD was some fem ue Core she could proceed with her narrative.) 'Why,' continued she, while tears of mirth ran down her ,heeks, 'I'd tucked it into my frees pocket, instead of a band. kerchief. That comes of being ibsont-minded and all in a fid ,et.' 'And Mary Ann and Stephen ivere they married after all?' 'Dear me, yes,' said Mrs. Jones; and it turned out the gayest wed. Hg I ever 'tended.' WANTED, AN OPINION. It is a lucky thing for lawyers who are much.sought to for 'opin. ons,' that they can occasionally rive a piece of wisdom not their , >wn. There is a good story told )f the hit Roger,Sherman once nade by taking advantage of this >rivilege. An honest farmer once called ipon the -elebrated lawyer and ,old him he wanted an opinion. Ele had heard a great deal about he value of Mr. Sherman's opin- I ons, and how a great many peo- I ple went to him to get an opinior, Lnd John, who never had, nor was likely to have a lawsuit or >ther difficulty for a lawyer to >elp him from, thought he would iave,an opinion.' 'Well, John, what can -I do to ielp you ?' said Mr. S., when ohn, in his turn, was shown into .he room. 'Why, lawyer,' replied John, 'I bappened to be in town, and hav ng nothing to do, I thought I would come and get your opinion.' 'State your case, John. What's he matter?' 'Oh, nothing. .1 ain't got no awsuit. I only want to get one )f your opinions. They say they're valuable.' 'But, John, about what?' 'Oh, anytbing,-sir; take your pick and choice.' Mr. Sheriman, seeing the no ions of his client on the matter in hand, took pen, and writing a rew. words .fdlded them up and banded thesn-.to John, who care rully placed them in his pocket. 'What's to pay, sir?' 'Four and sixpence'-Yankee money, seventy-five cents. When John returned home the next morning, he tound his wife, who pretty much took the lead in is business matters, anxiously discussing with his chief farm ser vant the propriety of getting in a large quantity of oats on that day which had been cut on the pro. vious, or of undertaking some other labor. John was appealed to to settled the question, but he could not de cide. At length he said, 'I'll tell you what, Polly, I've been to a lawyer and got an opinion that cost me four and sixpence. There it is; read her out. It's a lawyer's' writing, and I can't mike head or tail out of it !' John, by the way. could not read the plainest print, but Polly, who was something of a scholar, opened the paper, and read as follows: 'Never put off till to morrow what can be done to-day.' 'Enough said l' cried John. 'Them oats must be got in.' And they were 'got in,' and the same night such a storm came on as otherwise would have ruined them. Just before visiting the menage rie, Jonny had a passage at arms with the young aunt who assisted at his toilet, and with whom he flew into a rage. Arrived at the menagerie, Johnny was imme diately interested by a strange foreign animal with a long, lithe body. 'What animal is that, mam ma ?' he asked. 'It is called an ant-eater, my son.' After along silence : 'Mam ma, can't wettring Ant Mary here some day?' A person who had an import ant- case in court sent two very handsome and expensive flagons to the Judge. He ordered them to be filled with costly wine and sent back to the donor. Tlig Judge was a pagan, however, and didn't know any better. Sucb foolish stories can't be told of the ourts of nowadays.: .In the seventeenth century the ninister of a certain parish ig scotland was the famous Saninet Rutherford. the religious oracle of he Covenanters and their -adhe ,ents.

TRUE WoMEN.-Every mn'o snse and refinement admires. a woman as a -woman, and 'wbea she steps out of this character,: - thouand things, that in their ap propriate sphere would be ad mired, become disgusting and offensive. The appropriate char ater of a woman demands defl cacy of appearance and manness refinement of sentiment, -gentle ness of speech, modesty offieeIing and action, a shrinking from:ao. toriety and public gaze, aversion to all that is cdarse and rude,~and an instinctive abhorrence of-asR that tends to indelicacy anid ii purity, either in principl4 or:. tion. These are the traits w-hic are admired and sooaght for in woman. The greatness shows itset ignoring, or quicklyforgettingp~er sonal injuries, when desdeiNW. tures would he' kep inrNi4 them.
