. THE BELLS OF SAN BLAB.
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

"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,

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., ,

watnedj us that Kaflrq were prowling

other :shots which strilck the ground

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

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

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,

It is generally believed that the Cun

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 In
