Oh I bring us back once more The vanquished days of yore, When the world with faith was filled; Bring back the fervid zeal. The hearts of fire and steel The hands that believe and build. Then from our tower again We wll sena )uer land and main Our voices of command, Like exiled kings who return To their thrones, and the people learn - That the Priest Is lord of the land I 0, Blis of San Blas, in vain Ye call back the Past again I The Past is deaf to your prayer; - Out of the shadows of night, The world rolls Into light; It Is day break everywere I WK&T BIGHT ktAVE BEEN. "Isn't it lovely?" Nettio Long asked, as she held up a trailing, bronze-hued satin dress for her husband's admira tion one morning, tbree days before the coming of the New Year. "Yery lovely," the man answered, in a tone less enthusiastic than Nettie's had been. "1o1" ain't glad a bit," the girl said pettishly, "I am very glad, Nettie," he replied I quietly, with a voice which stilh had a suspicion of weariness in it. "It is lovely," she replied, "and I only want one thing to make my toilet for New Year's day complete, "I have the sweetest crimson roses for my throat and belt, and all I need is a duchesse lace barbe." t "I saw a beauty to-day at Macintosh's 8 for twenty-five dollars." "I am afraid you will have to do with- C out it, dear." t "I Lave exhausted my last month's a salary." "I cannot give you the money." "Never mind, Walter; draw your a next month's salary to-day, and give me my allowance and I will get the C - barbe with that, and have the meat and I groceries charged for two or three f weeks." r "I would not mind drawing my salary a few days before it is due, though you know I cto not like to do so, but I could never consent to your running in debt f to purchase an article you do not need; and the coal bill 1 promised on the second of January will take all the surplus funds I might otherwise spare -you." "But I do need it, Waltor." e "One would think you would like a your wife to look her prettiest on New Year's Day." "Let the coal-dealer wait another month," she said coaxingly, "I am sorry you have so little princi ple." "I cannot be dishonest even to gratify you." "Really you must do without it," he replied. "I cannot see how making one's coal dealer wait a few weeks is dishonest, e but even if it were, it is no worse than meanness and stinginess!" "Nottio, take care!" lie -Interrupted; "you rouse the demon in me." y "You know 1 give you all I have. "We are spending every dollar of a our income as, fast as we receive it, when, now in our youth, we ought to a be self-dening and economical, and save ti aomnething in ease of trouble or ill- a health!"|i "Come, Nettie, be reasonable," he ' eaid, his voice changing from passionate b auger to genitle entreaty; "your friends b will think you quite as charming with out the coveted lace as with it, and and would certainly respect you more if thiey knew the circumstances" And he kissed her pretty pouting a lips, and wont to his business, grieved and ankious at his wife's apparent lack 1b of principle, yet revolving in his mind a how he might purehase for her that d which she so coveted. It was New Year's Eve, and Mrs. Long attired for the opera, waited by l the yellow light of the grate fire in t . their cosy parlor for her lord to finish 1 his toleltte. It was late, and she could hear the l sound of his footsteps as he went to and ' fro in tihe ,roosn above, and once she ' started to call him, but took her seat i again, exclaiming angrily: . "lio, he is always late; let him take his time; I don't caret" But when the bronze clock on the mantel struck eight 'she opened the door, and called impatiently: "Walter, are you never coming?" No voice answered her, but five min uites later her husband entered the par.. t lor, attired for the opera,. 'in her anger she would not turn and * greet him, but when he softly crossed a the room and stood before her, and she a - was compelled to glance up to him, her s face whitened to the very lips. He was without shoes or stockings, He wore neither coat nor vest, and his white shirt hung nlevelesss about him, Around his head, so as to eonceal all I but the wild eye, from which the light of reason had. departed, was gathered his white morino vest; one hand held, this tightly, while the other clasped Nettle's white opera shall, which in her a haste she had forgotten. "Walter! Walter!" she cried in terror, What is the matter?" 'eW're gilg .to get the--the-aleoarf, 1 you know.", "I couldn't get it before; don't *old I" he said piteously. "My darling!" "Oh,- my darhugl" wailed Nettie's white lips, as she took him tenderly md unresistingly in her arms and drag red him upstairs and into their pretty aridal-roqm, and placed him in an easy ihair, the only piece of furniture in the -oom which was empty. Ringing a bell, Mrs. Long summoned heir only servant and bade her. go luickly for a physician. Upon the chairs, the floor, the bed, were scattered every article of clothing which the closet had contained. Her husband's shaving materials lay m the bureau. Nettie shuddered as she noticed the >pen razor and the great gashes in the >ale-blue satin pin-cushion. What if, while she sat there so wick idly impatient for his coming, he had iever come at all? And that he should have come to her husl Her tears fell like rain as she laid 6way the garments he might never wear gain, and gently placed him on his ouch. Her sobs troubled him, for he said: "Nettie, darling, don't cry." "I couldn't get the scarf, you know; 'HA go now and get it." She checked her tears, and soothed imr with tender words, and bathed his hrobbing forehead, and lulled him to leep, and sitting there, holding his sverished hand, thought remorsefully I all his kindness to her since, less ban a year before, he had brought her, penniless, orphan shop-girl, to this rettily furnished cottage home, and y and by, after what seemed to her n eternity, the doctor came. He felt the fevered pulse, inquired arefully when and how the symptoms rat appeared, looked wise and thought at, wrote two prescriptions, gave di ections concerning them, and left. Two days later the end came. Nettie's husband, the one love of her outh, closed his eyes and drifted away om her. And his last words had been: "Nettie, darling, i'll get the scarf in 1ie morning." And this loving but erring bride, so arty widoweJ. knelt beside him in an gony of grief, whieh only those can now who have wronged the one they >ved dearest on earth, and it is too late yr regret or forgiveness. "Nettie, little wife-asleep!" "Wake up and look at this barbe I Nettie sprang from the Turkish >unge, threw her arms around her usband's neck and covered his lips ith kisses, while tears of joy and ianksgiving and repentance filled her yes. "What is it, dear?" Walter asked, 3eing her so moved. "Oh, I dreaaedl" And once more she clasped him con ulsively. Then she told him something of her gonmzing vision. He took her in his arms and kissed way her tears, and soothed her agita on, and told her how the miniu'g bocks which he had held so long hay ig~ tLat day declared a dividend, he 5as enabled to afford the barbe, and ad gone himself and purchased it for or as a New Year's gift. "Oh, how good you arc!" "1 am not half worthy of you, Walter, shall not wear the barbe New Year's )ay though, as a punishment for my alfishiness and cruel words to youl" And she folded tenderly the dainty ice and laid it aside, as we p~ut away de precious things of the beloved end. She would have her way. And on New Year's Day, attired in or bronze-hued satiti-dres. with only lie crimeon roses at her throat and elt, she had never looked so beautiful a the fond husband who watched her roudly as she welcomed their friends rith sweetness and grac. And thus the demon which had breatened their home and happiness !as frightened away forever. Remarkable Deal in Whist. Probably the most remarkable deal a whist that was ever made occured at Cincinnati club the other day. After he first hand had been played Mr. Vobster, whose turn it was to deal, ook the cards, shufflod them, and, after hey had been cut by Mr. Kiersted, ealt. Ea~tch player as he arranged his ardh appeared to be laboring under ome unusual excitement. Mr. Oulbert on, whose turn it was to play, and who enerally in very prompt in placing his ard on the table, delayed the play uin I1 Mr. Starbuck broke the ominous ilonce which prevailed by exclaiming. 'Gentleman, I have the most remarka >le whist hand I ever held. 1 hold hirteen hearts." "And I," remarked fr. Oulbertson, "hold equally as re aarkable a hand. I have thirteen pades," "And I," nervously said Mr. iersted, "ave the thirteen diamonds. 'fcourse' hold the thirteen trumps," iuickly chimed in the dealer, Mr. Web ter. A case is said to have occurred n a Boston club a year or so ago where player held the thirteen ' rtampa, and iso a similar case in a New York club mt such an instance as that recounted bboye has no example. or precedent mn he history of whist. Magnetic 'Meamts. Many eccontrie philosophers have been disposed to think that there is something tb be said for the popular faith in ghosts ; and among these philo sophers perhaps the foremost place is due to Schopenhauer, who took sueh high rank among the original thinkers of his age that he earned the right to bo heard about any matter regarding whieh he chose to express decided opinions. As a rule, he was by no means easily duped ; but when he approached the sub ject of "vision" lie seemed almost to lose the faculty of testing evidence. Hardly any story relating to the border land between the natural and superna tural, whether recorded by ancient or modern writers, was condemned by him as extravagant; and in one' of his essays he rebuked Rughshmen (whom in other respects he considered to be far ahead of Germans and Frenchmen) for their scepticism as to the mysterious afiluities and capacities of the human mind. Curiously enough, lie attributes our backwardness in this departement of philosophical inquiry to the malign in fluence of the clergy of the National Vhurch, who, he thought, denounced animal magnetism and all other "isms of a similar tendency, because they per ceived the perils to which these soiences would expose their superstitious reli gious beliefs." One ot the fundamental doctrines of Schopenhauer's philosophy is that the world as we know it has not an indepen dont existence. Like Berkely, he held that it is merely an "appearance." The only really existence, he maintained, is "the thing in itself"; and "the thing in itseli" he identified with the will. In ordinary circumstances we know the will only as it manifests itself under the forms of space, time, and causality ; but he contended that there are states of the brain in which we penetrate behind these forms, and come into contact with the will as it is in its ow >. nature. :At such times we escape from the system of intellectual illusions which it is the business of science to investigate ; we are in the realm of absolute truth, which constitutes the proper domain of philo sophy. Even nembers of the Society for Psychical Research are not likely to take up higher ground than this, and they will certainly not suruass Soholen hauer in the confidende with which he drew coclusions from his ultimate prin ciples. The states of the brain which lead to such surprising results occur when we are in "a magnetic sleep,"and a magnetic sleep may be produced when we are asleep in the ordinary way. It does not follow that if we fall into a magnetic sleep we shall have magnetic dreams; and if we do dre am magnetic ally, it does not follow that we shall re member what we have draamed. A magnetic sleep is far deeper than an ordinary -sleep, and in the slow process of awaking from it we may. forget the spectacle which it has enabled us to see. Sometimes, however, the impres sion which the vision has produced on our feeling remains; and on these occa sions, if the vision has been one of coming disaster (as it commonly is in the worst of possible worlds, according to Soopenhauer), we have what is called a presentiment of evil and one presen timent is sure to be realized sooner or later. At other times our magnetic dream that is our perception of r ealities-may be transformed into a sort of allegory which is capable of different interpreta, tiens. Of this kind were the predictions of the Delphic oracle, which frequeintly could not be understood until they wvere fulfilled. S3hopenhiauer was not of opinion however, that our mysterious visions in their original form inyariably pass from the memory ; and he gives an examp~le of one whichi he himself hiad an oppor tunity of studying. Tuis instance seemed to him all the more remarkable because it related to a matter of little importance. One diy lie was writing a letter in great haste, and wvhen he had Ainished the third page he intended to strew writing..sand .over what lie had written. In his hurry lie seized the ink stand instead of the vessel containing sand, and dashed the contents over his letter. As the ink poured from his desk he rang for the maid to wipe It from the floor, When she was engaged in doing so, she said, "Last night. I dreamt that I shonrd bewiping ink-spots from the floor here." "That is not true," .answered Scho'penhatnor, "It is true, she replied, "andc when I awoke i mentioned it to the other maid who sleeps with me." Just then the other maid happened- to enter the room in order in to call away her fellow-servant. Shopenhauer, advancing to meet her, at once asked, "What did this girl dream last night ?" "I don't kno w." "Yes, you do ; she told you when she awoke." "Oh, to ne sure," the maid then said," she dreamt that she would be wiping ink spots from the floor here." Shiopen hauer gravely points out that this anec dote is not only sufloclent evidence for magnetIc dreaming, but that it estab lishes the truth of the doctrine that everything happens in accordanec with a fixed and neccessary order,, To neglect at any time preparation for death, is to sheep on our post at a siege, but to omit it in old age, is to sleep at an attack, A eng DsappeArUane. Twenty-seven years ago Watson . Worstall, a lad of 17 yea4, nysteriously disappeared from his home in Buckman vile, Bucks county, Pa. Every effort .was made to discover what had befallen him. After the lapse 6' morethan .a quarter of a century every expqotation of solving the mystery had been Riven up, and the old father, having almost rea6hed four-score-and-ten years, had abandoned a long-oherlshed hope of seeing "his boy" again. .On Thanks giving day, just before the big turkey had been brought on thew"' pih inhia Worstall's house, Vat Nmanville,, a man witl.U heavy Whiskers, o1001ig it be over 40 - yea's 'of age, with, broad shoulders and a hearty suanner, walked into the sitting-room where old Ihugh Worstall sat by the blazing logs, and looked euriously fitst at t4e old man and then at a tall' man who stood on the other - side of the room--Le Wa Warstall, '"My!" exclaimed Mrs. Worstall, "I thought it was 'Warner" referring to her husband's brother, who lives at Doylestown. "No~," said the stranger quietly, "it is Warner's brother, Watson." It was indeed true. After twenty seven years the missing brother had come back to his native place. He had lived for many years within a day's ride of his old home, but did not know until he came to Buckmanville whether his father or any of his broth ers were aliye. During all the search for him, and the excitement consequent upon the mystery which surrounded him, he was living quietly ton miles from Buckmanville. Watson had been a good-natured, rollicking lad, full of fun and prank. and fond of freedom, and objected to learning a trade, as his father had determied he should. He made up his mind one clay to quietly "drop out" and, imagining that a hue-and-cry would be made abroad, he shrewdly wout only a few miles from home, near the little village of Willow Grove, and hired himself to a farmer. He had firmly determined never to communi cate with his family nor return to his home. For' three years lie worked on the farm at Willow Grove. Having here accumulated a little money he came to city for two years. Then, taking Horace Greely's advice, he went West, but in a very short time he returned and went to Annapolis, Md,, where he married, and subsequently settled down in Alexandria, Va. Watson served four years in the war in the Third United States Infantry, and was seriously wounded at Chancel lorsville. After the war lie was in business in Maine for six years. He is now a car-builder in Manchester, Ocean county, N. J., where he resides with his wife and two children. Last, summer he spent some months in Vine land, N. y., within a few miles of the place where one of his brothers (Owen) lives; but neither an "nor hearl of the other, Another curious cireonistance is that, although he had for years lived so near his old home, Watson never in the en tire twenty-seven years saw an old ae quaintance nor any one he knew from Bucks county. Not one member of his immedi * to family, which was a large one, had died during his absence. An orator's Power. It was in the (lay campaign' of 18M4. An immense audience, 15,000 or 20,000, had assoembled to hoar Preston. A large stage had been erected, which was crowded with prominent persons, and the multitude was packed around it. There was the usual buzz and ionifusion incident to such occasions, until aftet' Preston had boon speaking a few me ments, when it began to subside and soon there was a dead silence, except the music of that wonderful voice, was in fine condition for his work' and went at It in his best style. TLhe silence. seemed to intens ify as the tide of hijs eloquence poured over the dense mass of enchanted listeners. With the swell of his sonorous voice the audience' seemed to rise on tiptoe and to sink back again with its ebbing cadenices ; and again they swayed with the sweep of his arm like a wheat field to the breeze. At length, in a magnificent burst of inspiration-with his long arm raispa high, his eyes flashinag and the multitude hanging breathlessly to his words- he seized the brown wig which lie wvore, held It up over his shining bald head, and, stil soaring in his splen did flight, replaced if cross-wiqe and soared on ; and there was not, In that vast audienice, the least ripple of laugh ter at this most ridiculous performance, but, on the contrary, no one seemeid to notice it, so completely entranced was every listener., , A Oattle Ranuge. The great cattle range, of Wyoming under the military protection of Fort Mciiinney Is about 800 mIles square. In this area are now grazing 500,000 head of cattle, worth $27 per head, amounting to $18,500,000, to which'can be added the value of the horses .snd ranches of the oattle men and the far" mers, and the stook qf the grange'rs, making at least 615,000,000 of proper close hots. O' 04or two! owieb'of very narrow es di bk from death by bullets occur to .4,0 1 Says an old soldier. During tlhe )afir war, I several, times accom Panied large parties of troops sent out to Intercept or pursue bodies of tho one my, or to destroy kraals or capture cat te. We never Quocoeded in intercept tug or overtaking Kafirs unless they were in strong parties and desired td fight; and as we marched along by day tie 4afirs, in loose order anl in parties of Avo or three, would hang on our flanks ahd rear, showing them 'selV64 on tho . high giound, but keeplng out of' fange of our mukets. One night four'of us were sitting cross logged round a little fire, on which we had -put our coflee-kottle to boil, and, hs we'thus sat, a report, followed by the rhig'r abullet closoover .or heads, watnedj us that Kaflrq were prowling about. This was followed by several, other :shots which strilck the ground quliteblose to us; but we were tired and cold ahd hungry, having had no food all day and we wore unwilling to lie down to aleep on the bare ground with empty I stomachs. We thorofore determined, in spite of danger, to keep the fire burn ing until the coffee was ready; and to hurry this, one of us stooped down to blow the fire with his mouth, when another shot settled the matter, for a bullet passing between us smashed the kettle and scattered the embers about, the head of the one who was blowing the fire. How close the bullet passed to his iead may be imagined, for it touched his hair. There was nothing to be done but to stamp all the embers out roll ourelves in our cloaks and light our pipes to keep down the cravings of hunger. At the relief of the residency of Lucknow the Colonel of my regiment had two very narrow escapes. As he was cantering from one position to another, the motion of the horse raised him a little out of the saddle every now I and then, and just at the moment when lie was raised out of the saddle a bullet passed below him, tearing the leather open along the whole seat of the saddle. Had he been sitting still in the saddle he would have been horribly wounded. Sliortly after the bullet struck the han dle of his Ivevolver, which was in a but for the revolver he would have re ceived a mortal wound. Lost oil tile Ocoa.. Rear Admiral George H. Proble, of the United States navy, gives some interesting facts concerning tho loss of life and property in Atlantic passenger steamships. The writer covers a period of forty years, from 1838 to 1879. The whole number of vessels lost in these forty ynais was 144, or an average of between three and .four vessels a year. A resume of the most important wrecks, in which large numbers of lives were lost, gives the city of Glasgow, In 1853, with 450 lives; the Arctic, with 562 lives; the Pacific,.Le Lyonnais and the Austria, with 200, 260 and 833 respectively; the Hungarian, of the Allan line, from Liv erpool to Boston, in 1860, with 205 lives; theo Canadian, also of the Allan line, 1861, with 80 lives; the Anglo Saxon, of the same line, in 1863, with 237 lives; the CJambria, of the Anchor Line, wrecked in 1870, losing 196 lives; the Scanderia, of the Morgan Line, which disappeared in 1872, with 45 souls; the Atlantic, of the White Star Line, wvhich was wrecked in 1873, and5846 lives lost; the Ville dui Havro, in the sanmc year, with 230 lives; the d1ebiller, of the Eagle Line, wrecked In 1875, losing 200 lives; the Deutschland, of the North German Lioyds, 'in 1875, wIth 157 liycs, aiut' the Pomnerania, of the Hamburg-Ameorican Packet - Company, in 1878, -with fifty lives. -Nineteeni ves sels in the forty years have lest every so'ul bl 'board.

It is generally believed that the Cun ard Line has never lost a ship nor the life of a passenger. This report shows that that line has lost twro vessels-the Columbia, in 1848, and the Tripoli, in 1872. In the first accident one life was lost; none in the second.

The seeds of our punishment is sown it the same time we commit sin. No government is safe unless protect Ad by the good will of the people. When you bury an old animosity, cover mind putting up a tombstone. Whilst you lo-k too much on others' gardens, you wilt neglect your own. Faith steps into our aid when our boasted reason and knowledge fall. . There is no such thing as being proud before mau, and humble before God. Genius at first is a little more than a great capacity for receiving discipline. The most important part of any busi n'ess is to know what ought to be done, Hewho. lives to ben..: aif en: [ers on the world' a benefit when he lies. The sweetest thing on earth is a little 4hild when it has learned to know and ovo. He that would have the perfection of leaeure must be moderate in the use >f it, Plunge boldly into the thick of life, md seizo it when you will, it is inter )sting. Men show their character in nothing nore clearly than by what they think aughable. There are more fools than sages; and imong the sages there is mnore folly han wisdom. He who reigns within himself, and ,ulos passions, desires and fears, is nore than a king. The very nature of love is to find its oy in serving others, not for one's own )onofit but for theirs. Idleness is the dead sea which swal ows up all virtues, and is the sulf-mado iopulchre of a living man. Pity is a sworn sorvant unto lovo, and this be sure, wherever it begins to make ,he way, it lots the mnster in. If you let trouble rest ur on your sout ike a lien upon her nest, you may ex ?cot the haitbing of a large brood. How many wabte their mornings in mticipating their afternoons, and their rfteru oons in regretting their mornings! When we record our angry foolings ot it be on the snow, that the first beam >f sunshine may oblitorate them for. wor. The object of all ambition should be ;o be happy at home. If we are not iappy there, we cannot be happy else vhere. A promise should be given with cau ion and kept with care. It should be made by the heart and remen bored With the hand. 1h impreasions of roligioli'are so atural to mankind, that most men are uccessitated, first or last, to entertain serious thoughts about it, A good wife is like the ivy which beautifies the building to which it 3lzigs, twining its tendrills more loving. y as timne eouvertm the ancient edifice uto ruin. Conscience and covetousness are iever to be reconciled. Like fire and vater they always destroy each other, recording to the predominancy of ither. How difficult you will find it to cola rince a miserly neart that anything is good which is not profitable, or a laber mne one that anything is bad which is hlasankt. .Time is short, your obligations nfl Ae. Are your iouses regulated, your hildren instructed, the antieted re laved, the poor visited, the work of liety accomplished. That age of the church which was oest fertile in nice questions, was nmoat ,arren in religion, for it makes people ~hink religion to be only a nmatter of iat in tying and untyig knots. Socially, we may all easily be divided uto two, classes in this world, at least n the civilized part of it. if we are .iot the people whom other folks talk ibout then we are sure to be the people who talk about others. Education is a companion wich no misfortune can depress, no crime do itroy, no enemy aheniate, no despotism liaslave. At home a friend, abroad am Lntroduction, in solitude a solmr . sociy an ornament. Surely, surely, the only tra' k now te~go of our fellowman is that which Lnables us to feel with him--whioh gives us a line car for thme hiearioulses that are beating under the mere clothes of circumstanco and opinion, The Christian should be careful how he niingles with the wvorld, or his Dhristian professiona, like a sword ex puosed to moisture, if it does net lose its edge it will certainly lose its polish. Religion is a necssary and india p)einsatble clement in any human charac ter. There is no living without it. Ii is the tie that connaets man to 'his Oreaitor, and holds him to is throne. Timidity creates cowards and never wins success. It is a strong ad abid ing faith in one's own ability to p)er form, that overcomes difficualties that others thought 'ould not be surmount. Man with all hais boasted strenagth of mind, needs womanly love and sympa thy, It is not as a worker at all thai, be wants a wife. If this Is all he needs, aired help can do it ceaper than a wife. ,Money lia a closer relation to morals Llian is generally admitted. In all his Lory, whether of communities or indi vituals, we find that laxity in money natters is followed by looseness in morals. Caarlyle says that one cannot move a stop without meeting 'a duty, and that the fact of mutual helplessness is proved by the very fact of one's exmefenoe, No mali liveth to ninif~lf and m' an dieth to hnnself.
