- ' BY F. A. ALBEE. sweet in summer, when the leaves are green, To wander forth, and by some singing stream, Linger for hours bowrapt in fancies' dream. To sit upon the sloping, green bank side, And watch the dancing waters, aa they glide Onward to mingle with the rolling tide. There ia a vernal spot, where willow trees, In graceful bend, nod to the passing breeze, And wave their branches forth o'er moonlit seas, Where oft I roam in sommer timo, to hear The little warblers ring their merry cheer, Welcoming thia sweet season of the year. Ona year ago. I wandered by this stream, Th* banks were then, as now, clad in their green Nbw nature looks the same as tben, I ween. But I am borne far ont upon the tide Of lifo's dark sea; waves beat on every side, And my proud soul their fury has dened. Still must my barque float on, now tempest tossed, Now down, so seeming often wholly lost, Like some lone soul, floating on Stygian coast. All ships that sail tho sea must havo their day, Old Time is an incentivo to decay, And my life's barque, it cannot last alway. And Time will bring that hour whon I shall bo Borne down beneath life's dark, mystcrioas sea, To tbat strange elimo they call eternity. [Newark Journal. [Original. OBKTNTBY, OB THE FORTUNES OF JULIET CLAYBURN. . - ' -o CHAPTER V.-Noxious FLOWEBS. Mrs. Tharlow and Rudolph had gone baok to Ashburn. It was the day before the household at Orkney were to leave for Charleston. Abont dusk, Cornelia entered Mrs. Clayburn's sitting-room. "How have you stood the noise, tho bastle and the commotion of packing?" she asked, addressing the invalid. "I have not allowed myself to be dis? turbed," replied the lady; "I've been very qaiet, hoarding np my strength for the journey. As for Juliet and yourself, I expect neither of you aro able to stand from fatigue." 'Tve given myself an intolerable head? ache," said Cornelia; "bat I nm going to retire directly after tea, and in tho morning, do not doubt, will be myself again. Nothing like sleep for a head? ache." "Very true," agreed tho lady; "but if your head aches so badly, the pain will prevent your sleeping." "Bat I icill sleep," replied Cornelia. "I have como to ask you for a narcotic either chloroform, or something of the kind." "Look theVe, in the medicine chest," said Mrs. Clayburn; "you will find every description of that Hort of thing. Un? fortunately, I am often compelled to resort to such means myself, to palliato pain." "Toa certainly have a good stock on hand," remarked Cornelia, glanoing her eyes over the labels; "every variety of physic." "I'll venture to affirm," said Mrs. Clayburn, "that it is as select and as ex? tensive a collection of drags, as yoa will find anywhere this side of town. But Cornelia, be careful how yoa use narcot? ics, or we will be necessitated to leave yon behind in the morning, and get out the sleep you seem so determined to enjoy." "No danger," said Cornelia, standing on the roand of a chair, to reach the bottle she wanted; "I'll take particular care not to overdo the matter. I know all about such things and am quite accus? tomed to th?ir use." She kissed Mrs. Clayburn good night, the kind lady expressing regret at her indisposition, and hoping she would speedily get rid of so unpleasant a com? panion. The household retired early Mr. Clayburn declaring he would have all hands ap by times, for he desired to make an early start in the morning. Eu genia Rawleigh had come over to pass the night with Juliet. She was to com? pose one of the traveling party, going under Mr. Clayborn's care to her aunt's in the oity. Juliet blew out the candle, but instead of following Eugenia to bed, enveloped herself in a heavy shawl, and throwing open the blinds, sat nt the win? dow, looking oat at the stars. She held the little mother-of-pearl case in her hand. Pressing the spring, the lid flew open and Juliet drew forth her ring. She slipped it on her finger-then slipped it off again, for the thought passed th rough her mind, it woald be better to leave it off this particular night. In tho hurry of departure, sho would be certain to forget it. However, while thus cogi? tating, sho had, unconsciously to herself, slipped on the ring again. With her head leaning against the glass panes in the window, she continued to sit there, gazing at the stars, wondering if Karl were gazing at them too. Eugenia awoke from her first nap. "Juliot, where in the world are you? Come to bed. Are yon going to sit (here all night, looking at tho stars and play? ing romantic?" "I'm coming now," said Juliet, laugh? ing a little; "to toll tho truth, whether it : is orthodox in romaneo or not, this j steady look at the stars, has made nie I awfully sleepy." She went ncroes the room, found her traveling sache], locked np the caso.aml, as she thought, the ring, and then jump? ed ia bed. Juliet was soon asleep, but her dreams were troubled. She thought sho was in her mother's room, and Mrs. Clayburn was again pulling tho ring from her finger. Then the features gradually changed. It was Cornelia now; Corne? lia looking like a monster, with dishevel? ed looks and green malignant eyes. Sho seemed to tho sleeping girl to beholding her down forcibly, while she drew away the ring. Sho struggled-she tried to Moioaui with affright, but she could not. This passed. Juliet waa with Karl. It was his hand which held hers; hiB fingers which twined softly with hor's-which played with the ring. She told iiim how it had left hor finger-how mach ehe had been compelled to go without it; she,prayed BAW would not doubt' he? trulb, he* eonsts-sey; and Karl s Dialed his own sweet smile, and said: "To think my poor little Jolie has been so unhappy about a trifle. Noth? ing can harm us now, Liebchen. Forget about the ring." "Juliet! Juliet !" cried Eogenia, start? ing up in bed. "Did yon hear any? thing? Was it the door, or a chair fell?" Her companion made no reply. She caught Juliet's arm and shook her vehe? mently. "What is it?" said Juliet, drowsily, not opening her eyes. "Did you hear anything?" "No.,r "There's a strange smell in the room," said Engenia. "It must be those flowers. I'll get np and throw them out." The crouched figure at the foot of the bed crouched still lower, but there was no necessity, for Eugenia had fallen back on the pillow again, overcomowith sleep. The next morning everything and everybody was kept waiting on Juliet and Eugenia. Mr. Clayburn reprimand? ed them severely lor their tardiness. "I entreat you n^ I. to scold us," said Juliet. "We were per'jctly overpowered with sleep. Hetty bnd to wake us up four times before she conld move us, and we are both perfectly stupid now." "Yon exerted yourself too much yes? terday," said Mr. Clayburn, "and not a bit of necessity for it. What's the use of having servants, if you do all your own work yourself?" "I am sure, I didn't work," remarked Eugenia, "and I feel as if I never could get enough sleep again. I believe it was nothing but inhaling the odor of those flowers; it always makes mo sick." "It is a very pernicious practice,"said Cornelia. "Father never allows mo to do it. There are numerous flowers which exhale poisonous gases, and SODIO are powerful narcotics. Tho poppy, Papuver somniferum, you know, of course, from which comes opium. Then there is the Macropiper methysiicum, found extensively in tho South Sea Islands; it is celebrated for its narcotic influence. The Vanilla arom?tica. t.h? Dipterix odorala, or the Tonka bean, which is the same odor as vielilot and our sweet-scented vernal grass. This Bcent always gives me a dreadful headache, and I never venture to walk through a new-mown hay field. Besides, there's common camphor extracted from the branches of camphor laurel and patchou? li, and lemon grass, and a thousand other sweet-smelling substances, n*e markably soothing and sleep-producing in their effects, which possibly may 1 exist unknown in some of our commonest flowers." "Juliet," said Mr. Clayburn, "I wish you were half as well informed as Cor? nelia. It seems to me nothing esoapes her mind. If yon would read in? structive books, as she does, and gain a large fund of information, you wonld not be doing such silly things os sleep? ing in a close room, and the whole air impregnated with the sickly perfume of flowers." "I might read the same books, father," enid Juliet, laughing, "and still not possess the same amonnt of information as Cornelia, for the simple reason that her intellect and mind are different in quantity and kind. Books aro like teachers-they can furnish instruction and food for the mind; but they cannot famish the apparatus which must digest that food, namely, brains. So I see nothing for it, unless Cornelia will spare me some of that aselul article." "I don't think I've any of the com? modity to spare," rejoined Cornelia, j "Nor do I," said Eugenia, sollo voce, "but you might dispense with some of your pedantry and be more agreeable to those around yon."
