Reflection imparta io tba miad a scren?lSr ]
Newly akla to Nature's own repose, and j
Meditation sneelly woos to her embrace, ' j
Thought untrammeled, free to roam at will, fondly
Tarns to scenes of yore, most dear to xsemory.
The old, old borne ; the high white howe >: ym
The high green knoU, around which frrteefully
Wound the gravel road ; ana neetb which lay
The crystal spring, with cool t.ijUt w?itrs, which
Had gWa drink to many a w^ary traveler.
How sweet the Bowers tbet near
That old spring grow I Along llr Utile breach
I've often gathered duties, and fragrant * loleta ; "
Water lillee too, and loveliest fares,
Orcr Its covering of r?ck,cllrabc4 the

Too, Ute eglantine twined its' graceful foliage. ;
On trece near by o'erhanglng those limpid water*
The trumpet-Sower ran, sad mide gsy the sceao
With 1U bright-red blossoms. , In those same
Old tres?,' bills' of sweetest song made their homes
And gladdened the plac?. with Joyous melody.
A few steps farther ou thro' the bright meadow,
Was tho long, well-shaded lane. A place
Alike pleasant for day-time walk or
Moonlight sholl. There vows of love have oft
Been spoken, and plighted troth be p".ron
By some whose lives sundered far h?.c been,.
And light young hearts which now, alas! aro broken.
With emotion deep and tender ?V> I recall
Tho last day spent at that dear old home.
'Twas beauteous May-Umr. - Nature woro.ber
Brightest robe. The sighing br?ese waa redolent
Uf delicious odors of fairest flowers.
The situ shone out In glory most resplendent.
Baya of happy chUdhor ' were long gone by,
And girlhood's brighter* J ream? of Joyous y CM a
Were numbered with i - mes of the past.
My heart, which long had koowa no other loro
Than love .of nature's beauUes and of borne,
And Of thoso whose gentle bands had 'tended me
Frorq Infancy, wae then Ulled with love
For another, and that other a stranger,
lits ring-our wed ling ring-was on ray (luger.
Voira of wifely d?votion had been spoken
At the attar sad ?vg?itqrod In heaven.
Ills fate was now io give color to my own
Jilt destiny henceforth to be mine.
For hours I wandered about those dear old haunts
And familiar scenes, ling a silent
And o?d adieu to meaoows, woodlands,
Trees and fiowe.s. Once I spoke to tboso dumb
. things,
So dumb-y ct to tn o MO dear I I whispered,
Ab ! never elsewhere can tho sun shina
So gloriously as beril I Nor can sephyr
So softly sigh. Never can waters murmur
With co sweet a dadencc. Nowhere can tho,
Moon bean with .such mellowed radiance
As whon 1 ID light penetrates tho foliage . ,
Of those grand old locusts In full blossom,
And forms weird shadows on the lawn, and resta ,
On field and meadow Uko a benediction.
Nowhere can,tho new o'er sparkle so brightly.
Never aa bere can It over seem again

Long I lingered in the dear lld garden ;
And still loth to leave it traced and retraced
My stepsithro' all those pft-'.rodden walks, I
Plucking BOW and then loud or flpwor
From the myriads blooming there. At length
I turned, and entered a small enclosure
Ty the side cf the garden wall. There an
.'.mrcenie lilac', laden with purple bloom,
Formed a tatura! bower. Beneath Ita ?ow, - -
O'er hanging branches, was a solitary grave.
Alas I ?bat lonely grava contained Ihn !

A ?ERB?BLE NIGHT?
I nra no politician. I am a provision
dealer- a wholesale provision dealer
doing busir/?83 in Now York city. Hav
ing commenced my veritable history with
tho above assertion, it ia necessary that I
should inform tho reader bow it was that I
was a member of the New York delega*
tion to thc domocratio convention keldln
Baltimore some years SRO.
Ono evening, in the hut-? part of May.
I was seated with my wife in one pretty
house, on Eighth street, enjoying a fra?
Srant cup of tea-for if there is one thing
ara agood judge of It is tea. My wife
bad been shopping, and while I was
sipping'ny Hyaon flavored with orange,
she w5.sshotv.ing me her purchase*.' ;?bo
wa* expatiating on a VIove of a bonnet,''
whon wo wcroboth startled by a violent
ring at the bell? and in a minute or -two
afterwards a servant Catered, informing '
mo that MK L?wronco Aru.-aw wishes to
eeo th* immediately. As Ardraw was a
, ,. particular friend of mine, I immediately
ordered bim to bo admitted.
"?unby/'said ?rdrow,. w; toen ns be

Jonathan Gunby--."Gunby, I want you
to do rho cVgrcat favor." .
"What fi It, my, dear ; -fellow?" I
replied, I could aflord tc bs aSfec?i??ato,
for I know that Ardrow was too rich to
want money.
"You know. I om.a politician?" said
Ardrew. j^.^'f^F-:-;
"I know you aro," I returned, and not
much good has it done you. To my cer
tain knowledge you have not received a'
cent's bene?t&om iL Orithaotberhaa-?b
you bavo spent a good many hnndred

"Jost walt till : ? elected P?cs?dc?it

" What I" 1 cried, jumping up from my
chair in excitement. "I, Jonathan Gun-,
by, wholesale provision merchant, act es
a member of a political con volition 1 Nev
er, my dear friend,, never 1"
"#ut you must, I will pay all expen
ses, and ibo trip will do you good. I
bavo noticed, that you seem lo bo thinner
than yen used to,be; a-change Is the
very, thing for you. The fjici ft. I have
an importaut lawsuit going on, and it U
. utterly imnosaiblo lliat I can leave Kfew.j
York." Y?rf mast do this favor for me,
my dear Gunby.
"Bot, Ardrsw, I novcr attended e po
litical meeting In my lift?," I replied.
tiOtnowbai s^Bencd by the fact that all
my expenses would be paid. "I should
make a blockhead of tujeeif, for I know
nothing of tho niles and regulations of
euell asaemblle*."
"You don't want to know any thing,
AU that yon have todo ia to vote, through
thick ana thin, for-."
"Bulldon'tlikothe man."
"You bj-e? nothing to do with that, I
Aft ?ik<> him and you will bp voting fr-j

"You are r?gbt-I forgor, that."
"?onatban ?halt ?ot EO to; that awful
City that Ardrow
i lu? place, and thc
prcoent from: the
monumental city so mollified my wife
that soo gave ber consent.
On the rnpolntod dey, provided with
?bc necessary rvoacbors, I started on roy
Journey, having first faithfully promised
my wife that I would not venture In the
streets of Baltimore efter dark. I shall
not detail the particulars of my journey.
Wero I to do so, I mi$<ht describe bow
crowded vre were ; bow we were
annoyed by a squalling infant tbst
it;was utterly impossible to silence;
bow we were delayed in crossing thu
Susquehanna by .some accident to thc
ferryboat ; bow X tried to rend, but could
not on secy'ut of the perfect Babel around
mo; how 1 .mJenvorod to make fun of
tho boys who sold apples, and brid the
laugh turned against rac by tboso youthful
venders bf tbst wholesome fruit. Ail
this and a great deal moro I might tell,
but M every traveller goes . through the
same experience, it would only be repeat
ing a i old story.
Wo reached Ballimore at last, and I
was immediately driven to Barnum's
Hotel. I had some difficulty in making
my way to the clerk's counter, tho bali
was so crowded with people.
"All full, sir," said the gentlemanly
clerk, as 1 pulled the book toward mo to
enter roy name. There was no help for
lt. I went ria nd to the Gilmoro House
and relived -\:* ?ame reply. It was the
nemo with the Ru taw, ana Howard Uouse
nvd half a dozen other hotels. It was
getting dark, and I began to think I
should have to sleep en tho h.ick ali
night.
YTry Old Town, Bill," said a friend to
tho hackmao, who saw roy dilemma.
"They are only third and fourth rate
iuns, there,"said the driver, "and perhaps
tho gentleman would not like to lodge
there for a night?"
"Anywhere that I can get a bcd, my
good follow," I returned. "It is no UKO
eing particular ai such a timo as this.
The horses' heads wero turned round, and
woproceeded down Baltimore street over
winch a bridgo spanned a muddy stream of
water called Jone' Fulls, I believe. We
thou pinn . mass of intricate
narrow street*, ?nd at last stopped beforo
thc door of a very ord ':ing tav
It boro a Vnondr ing sign,
which I was,'told represented n Golden
Angel, by which ?amo tUojlavern wa?
known.
I entered and made my stereotyped in
Jiuiry-whether I could have >. lied there
o/.tbo night. Tho land ' .,
btirlydookin'g mau, with a gleruu of iabwu
bumorih his face, shook nh head, -arid
repeated thc hateful word*: "All full/]
I turned to go *vVny, but waa recalled
by tho voice of tho host.
""Would you mind sharing a bed with'
another party ?" eaid he.
"If thero ls no help for it I suppose I
must," I replied, "although, to tell the
truth it-IH by nr> means agreeable to mo,"
and I inwardly hoaped denunciations on
Ardrew's head for persuading mo to be
his pubstitute.
"Your bedfellow ls a quiet follow when
be is asleep, although I must say ho ia
violent when annoyed. He Bleeps very
roundly and all you have to do is lo be
careful bot td wake him. Ho bas boon
in-bed for-eomo timo."
I must mako a humiliating confession
to the reader 5 I am i.ot n bravo man. I
have c?ion tried to persuade myself that
lam, but truth compels me to state that
a greater coward does not exist than my
self. The landlord's description of my
bedfellow was anything but assuring, and
I was on tho point of declining, when the
proprietor of tho Golden Angel, no doubt
redoing what was transpiring in my
mind, exclaimed :
"You are not afraid, are. you ?"
"Afraid I I should think not, indeed,"
I replied, for I was two much of a coward
to bravo being thought; one. I accept
your offer of half abed. Bring mc rome
brandy and'water and a cigar.
I sat down nt ono of tho little tables in
the bar-room, and puffing away at my
cigar, I tried to persuado mybeii that I
*ras vory jolly. It was a. mi.^\blo at
tetapt, however. I had previ ??*w;supp
cd nt a restaurant in a more modernTuart
nf tho city. After my cigar was finished,
I asked to bo shown io my chnnibe?\ The
landlord took upon himself &o task of Is
ing my conductor, and i followed him
up a narrow, rickety Btaircnso. Wo kept
on ascending until we reached the top of
the house, when we entered a moderately
ahed room, but much cleaner than I had
expected to find it. Tho ceiling wa? very
low, and inclined in front to the elope of
tho roof. Tbs apartment contained but
ono bed, which was rlaced between two
Windows, which loo'/-?d upon tho roof.
The landlord placed tho - lamp upon
the table, and . tuon I noticed that he
shielded the light with bin hand, as he
passed near the bed. .
"Bo sure and don't toko tho light hear
him." whispered tho f.roprietor of the
Goluen Angel ; "nettling wakes him
noo.nor thau that. You seo I don't know
how ha might like my putting another
man with bim ; and lie is a very ugly
customer when be's riled, I can ' tell
you?"
"iBbntl be cnroiul,"I roplled.
"That's right. Good night," he wbia~
pored,, and loft, tho room.. , ,. ,
lie had no eo?ne- ^ne" than I cau
tiously sat down/taking ?s?-e n?t^o make
the least noise. I then calmly surveyed
ray position. It waa certainly hot a very
enviable one. According to tho landlord s
account, my companion for tho night wm
anything but ab amiable character. If I
Bhohld chance to awaken bim I knew ftc*
what might occur. He might assault mo
dangerously before I coufd onfcor Into
any explanation. X half resolved to pass
th? night in tho chair, and not retire to
to bed at at). But it was ono of the old
fashioned high-back chairs, and tn*de
auch an uncomfortable Gout that I soon
tired out. I then ventured to glance
around.ibo room. My eyes naturally
fell on. the bed. There was . ono thing
that consoled mej my companion ap
peared to bo in deep sleep/for he;'did not
even movo. I could see ibo ridge made
by. his feet nt tho. end of hi? bcd, and
that was all. I also noticed th et tb~ : -3
wa? a verj icae ob?. Tbs '?tn.ivhv Sacf j
pvssssaiott of It lay near the wa?!. j??? ? ?ra j
outatdc for me*To lie without touching
bim. I screwed my courage up and bo- '
Sr. to undress-hut I remembered the
id'ord's words', that tho Btranger was
an "ngly customer When he^wasi riled,"
walch made mo desist. Tho thought
struck mo that ? might manage to lie on
th'. . .m-, but a moment's examination
Med tho question In the negative, for
tba floor was entirely hare, and'the air
blow very cold through tho w IO
?n tho planking. least my eyes to the
Celling, and: noticed for tho first time that
a heavy beam, studded with numerous
hooks, ran through the apartment ; but as
I w?a not rv bird and could not perch
thora, this discovery was of Hui* r.*e to
me.
Half rm boar passed away In this scat
of indecision. I stole cautiously to one
of tho windows, ann gazed on tho beauti
ful city bathed in the light of tho moon.
, How quiet ind calm every thing looked I
But tho air felt frosh and cool, and J
closed tho window and resumed my seat
in thecha^r. ? th??n found myself won
dering tfhatavocation my friend followed.
I tuddenlf cast my eyes : on a. heap pf ]
clothe* which lay on'a 'trunk: covered
oxer with a handkerchief, un doubt be
longing to the deeper. . My curiosity got
tliobotter of my o&Iitcn?JM?t?MlBp|ora I
scsr^sljf; knew whait ? wa? abo*? $foufe?;
myself examining bia apparel. The
handkerchief which covered ?bern waa a
coarse cotton ono, and his clothes of
coarse homespun and were such as are
usually worri by drover*. My compau
ion, then, waa evidently a drover-a rough
data of mab who usually stand upon ve?j
little ceremony.
Partly uudre*s*d ^a X was, I began to
feel1 very cold-but before venturing iaty
bed I determined to try an experiment to
?HHRNMHnKBnsnm
wiB*?BmmmdmiaamMmrx*mtmtmamBmmM?MmtMammim
see if the drover slept soundly or not. I
had taken the precaution to leave the
bed room door ope? o that I could make
a run of it if necessary. I fixed my eyes
on the bed as I let my boot fall. The
drover was evidently a sound sleeper, for
although the noise made was considerable,
he did not make the slightest motion.
Tbis decided me, ?nd I hastily finished
undressing and crept into bed.
Of course, I was careful not to touch
my companion. I do not know bow
long I lay awake, but the novely of
the situation drove sleep from my eyes
for some time. By degrees, however, the
strangeness of my polution wore off. 1
felt reassured by my bed-fellow's sound
sleep, and the gentle murmuring of the
br?ete outside caused me to follow bis
example.
I bare no idea how long I slept before
I commenced to dream. I suddenly,
howover, thought that my companion
woko up and sat upright in bed ; that he
glared around bim and at last bis eves
tell upon me. He then uttered a terrible
cry and threw himself upon me. In spite
of my natural cowardice, I saw if I
did not struggle I should bo I.?'.d. I
thought I seized bim by the throat, and
tightening my grasp, I saw bim getting
black in the face. His hand fell
powerless by his side, a smothering groan
escaped bim ; but still I pressed his
throat tighter, tightcr-r-hU lace grew
blacker and blacker.
In agony of fear I awoke, and what was
my horror and dismay to find that my
hand was really pressing my companion s
throat. He did not move nor stir, and
his body felt as cold as Ice.
"Great God!" 1 exclaimed aloud.
"Can bo be dead?"
I jumped out of bcd. Morning bad
dawned, although the sun bad not yet
risen. I rushed to .ho window and pull
ed back the curtnib. I then ran to the
bed again and looked at my companion.
My worst fears wore realized. He was
dead, black in Ute face-strangled in my
sleep.
1 shall not attempt to describe my sen
sation at this horrid spectacle. My body
was bathed in cold perspiration, my hands
trembled, and fora few moments I believe
I was bereft of my senses. 1 recovered
hy degrees ; but it was only to realize in.
a moro acute degree the horrors of my
situation. There lay my victim, and I
was a m?derer I My trial, conviction
and tbe hideous gallowe all passed in
rapid review before me. Who would be
lieve me? I sat down, buried my face
in my hands, and sobbed like a child.
My wifo, my own comfortable home
should I ever see them again."
What was to bo done? Should I arouse
tho house and make a clean breast of it?
But what could I say V-toll them I bad
killed a man in my sleep? Not n soul
would believe the story. Could I effect
my escape? Impossible. The crime
would be discovered before I could leave
tho city, and I should be hanged by the
neck until I was dead.
Hanged by the neck I Yes, that would
be my fate. An this terrible thought
crossed my mind, I cast my eyes around
the chamber, and they foll upon tho beam
with the hooks in it. From thence they
wandered to tho handkerchief covering
the dead man's clothes.
A means of safety suggested itself to
roy mind. Suppose I could make it op
acar that tbe man had committed suicido,
?es, that was my only chance1, and I de
termined to put'it into execution.
I took thc demi mira's handkerchief and
advanced to the corpse with a great deal
of repugnance, but with more courage
Minn I could have anticipated. My own
fearful situation no doubt animated lue
to an extent that I should ne er otherwise.
have dreamed of. I mado u noor.3 lu the
handkerchief sud slipped it over; the
dead mon's neck. I then lifted the dead
body out of bed, and standing on a chair
fastened tbe other end of tbe handkerchief
to a hook In the beam. I now let tho
body go, and it Bwung in space.
I jumped into bed, and shut my eyes
to close the horrid sight from my gaze.
I determined to Watt there until somebody
would come into the room, and then pre
tend that I knew nothing at all about it,
but that the man must have got up In tbe
night nod banged himself.
i\ I lay quaking and shaking for over no
.hour. It grew broad daylight. I felt
the sun'shining directly OD the bed, but
II dare not open my eyes for fear that I
should encounter the dangling corpse.
Suddenly I beard the steps of two men
bh; tho stairs. They appeared to bo carry
ing something heavy between thom. The
long anticipated moment was approach
ing. In a few seconds muro they would
discover tbe body. My lifo depended ina
great degroe unon their opinion. If they
were deceived by my :UHO, ulbara might
be. .
Tho door opened, and two men entered
tue chamber, placing (something heavy ou
the floor.
"Well, I'm blessed if the man hasn't
hanged himself again," exclaimed a voice
which I knew to be the landlord's.
"By golly I that's tree," said the other
man. "No, I seo how it io. The erf an
ger found out the trick you played on
bim, and not liking tho idea of sleeping
with a corpse, ne tucked bim up there to
get him out of tho way."
"You're Tight," repl?d tue landlord.
"Well, he's a cool 'un r.nyhow, and would
you beliovo it, Inst night I thought be
was a coward? That only sbows how
easy it is to be mistaken in* people. And
pow he sleeps as soundly as a church ;
lets bo careful not to wake bim."
? I breathed freely, for I immediately
understood the whole matter. Tbe land
lord bad put mo to sleep with a dead
man.
I beard ibero tako down the body, And
put it into a collin-for it was that which
they b?^.MKugU.wHb.tuem.^JXh^c?cr
aaleep^Ooyed t??^Wde^a
slumber. I then got up. dreaded myself,
and proceeded donn stair*.
"Good morning," said I to the landlord,
who was behind tho har.
"Good morning, sir." be replied,'sheep
ishly ; "I hope vou slept well."
""?iJend?dij," I returned. "My bed:

, <T ?fyou did," returned p-'he host,
with a knowing wink. "Well, I must
say, you aro tho coolest chan 1 ever saw."
Not another wc-i'd passed between u?
with reference to tho affair. And I af
forward learned from the conversation ol
the people while I was at breakfast, that
my companion fer tbe night waa a drover,

The gathering of roots and herb? for
medicinal purposes give? employment to
ninny persona in rural district? through
out tbe country. A Cincinnati reporter
istely "interviewed" an old herb collec
tor, and the following ia a portion of the
man's ecconut of lils business, with
therapeutical observation interlarded:
"Yaller root, or golden seal is worth
seven cents a pouud. It is used for
makin' washea for sore eyes and mouth.
Ilurwace root ia used in makin' ager
medicine; it is hard to git, and brings
eight cents a pound. Butternut bark
brings as high as three and four cents ;
that's what ver pbysickiu' pills is mndo 1
of; jist bile'it down till it gita thick like
paste, and then roll it into yer pills; it
is also used for dyeing purposes. Hoar
bound is used in making cough syrup ;
it brings eight cents * pouud, although
it is plentiful; some places it grows HO
thick yer can mow it with a scythe.
Another herb is lobelia, ?nd I git 10
cents a pound fur it, but the price in
falling. If yer ever want to git rid of
what's inside of yer, mt make a tea of
lobelia leaves, and 1 ll bet my tuarn of
bosses out there it'll accommodate yer.
I bought in a good many Indiana turnips,
this Fall, and I got eight cents a pound
fur 'em. They aro uied In cough medi
cinen. Silk-weed root is used ia ager
medicine, but it is scarce in roy part or*
thecountry ; it is worth 10 cents n pound.
Pennyroyal and peppcrment brings 10
cents a pound, but when dry il takes a heap
to make a pound. There are ? good many
kind* of bark used. There's wbite oak
bark, the beat thing in the world to
check tho bowel?, wbero it is made into
sy.-tip. Yellow poplar bark used with
wild-cherry bark, prickly ash, dog-wood
bark, and wnhboo, is good for consump
tion. Slippery elm bark is ground up
and used for poultices ; good to take out
fever; it's worth 10 cents a pound.
Then there's elder bark ; take it, bees
wax, mutton taller, and a leetle rosin,
and it make* the best kind of salvo for
cuts. Bone set is nn berb that grows
about three feet high, with leaves of a
milky color; it generally grown in old
pastures; it is used for colds, and is
worth 6 cents a pound. Old field bal
sam looks a good deal like boneset, only
it don't grow so high ; it is used for the
same purpose. I've sold lots of catnip
to these druggists, but wbat it ia used for,
more than to nourish babies with, I
don't know. I sell these fellows hero
all t ot t i of roots and herbs, even to mul
len and plantain leaves, which they
make salve out of. Why, even these
old gypsum weeds bring 8 cents a pound,
nod even sunflower seeds. Why, a
couple nf years ago I sold two bushels of
sunflower seeds for 021. They buy
pumpkin and watermelon seeda, also,
ter make kidney medicine out of."

they aro proved otherwise, to temper
judgment, to build up churches, establish
asylums and to find collegee. Unkind
words do as much harm as unkind deeds :
many a heart has boen wounded beyond
coro by words; many a reputation Los
been stabbed to death by a few little
words. They have separated families,
parted husbands and wives, and broken
loo ties between tho 'dearest friends.
There is a charity which consists in with
holding words, io keeping back harsh
judgments, in abstaining from speech, if j
to speak is to condemn. Such charity
hears the tale of slander, but repeats it
not ; it will not bc tho one to bolp the
bali roll. It listens in silence, but for
bears comment, and it locks the unplea.
ant secret up in the very depths of ; ii
heart. While tho busy censorious world
is wagg'ng its tongue,'charity sits dumb
amid the clatter, refraining from passing
judgment on that of which it bas no proof
and which, even if it had, would prefer
throwing the mantle nf r?enecover tho
unpbasant matter.
Could it bo posible for simuler to make
the headway that it does, if reticence, in
stead of promulgation, was tho uni venial
rulo? could.report bo furnished the hun
dred wings it has if there wus hot no ronny
tongues wagging? silence ton -till rumor,
it in speech that keops it alive and lends
it vigor. It is to the heart that is kind nnd
gentle that charity flies and broods quiet
ly over it with the peacefulness of the
dove. There it makes its hose, and by,
the words withheld aud the kindly word
outspoken, we have HCCU that the dove of j
peace is nestling in the heart. The heart
whicb is filled with bitterness will givo
vent to it in words. It seca nothing
bright ur beautiful, because it looks
through a clouded vision. Words are a
pretty good tent of temper and habit of j
thought. As "to the pure nil things are
pure," sb as the malicious and ill-tempered
all things are black, unlovely and of ill re
pa te. Words are tho aigns of thought, and
If the thoughts be s woe t and good the words
will bo kind and gentle, freo from malice
?hd uhch?ritnbleneAs. Therefore, by our
words do we proclaim what we are, the
?.nod fairy dropping diamonds from her
mouth, or tho evil fairy, .dropping toad?.
