THE MOTHEK’S EIKST GKIEF-
She pits beside the cradle
And her fears are streaming fast
For she secs the present only,
While she thinks of all the past,
.Of the days so full of gladness,
When her first born’s answering kiss
Filled her soul with such rapture
That it knew no other Hiss.
Oh, those happy, happy moments '
They blit deepen her despair.
For she bends above the cradle,
And her baby is not there 1
Then are words of comfort spoken.
And the lsaden clouds of grief
Wear the smiling bow of promise,
And she feels a sad relief;
But her wavering thoughts will wandc
.Till they settle on the scene
Of the dark and silent chamber,
And if all that might have been
For a little vacant garment,
Or a shining tress of hair
Tells her breast in tones of anguish
That her baby is not there.
Bits beside tlie ei'adic’
iluL her tears no longer flow
For sbe s < es a blessed vision
And forgets all ea thly woe—
Saintly eyes look down upon lier
And the voice that-hushed the sea
Stills her spirit with a whisper,
“Suffer them to come to me
And while her soul is lifted
On the waving wings of prayer,
Heaven’s crystal gates swing iffward,
And she sees her baby there.

THE MAN-EATING T'EEE.
A writer in the South Australian Reg
ister gives the following account of
the man eating tree of Madagascar :
If you can imagine a pineapple, eight
feet high and thick in proportion, rest
ing upon its base, and denuded of
leaves, you will have a gcod idea of the
trunk of the tree, which, however, was
not the color of anana, but a dark, dingy
brown, and apparently as hard as iron
From the apex of this fusticated cone
(at least two feet in diameter) eight
huge leaves sheer to the ground, like
doors swinging back on their hinges.
These, leaves, which were joined at the
top of the tree at regular intervals,
were about .ek veil or twelve feet long,
and shaped very much like the leaves of
an American agave or century plant.
They are two feet through in their hick
est point and three feet wide, tapering
to a sharp point that looked like
a cow’s horn, convex on the outer
(but now under) surface, and on the un
der (now upper) surface slightly con
cave. This concave face was thickly set
with strong thorny hooks like those
upon the head of the teazle. These
leaves, hanging thus limp and life
less, a dead green in color, bad
in appearance the massive strength of
oak fibre. The apex of the tone was a
round white concave figure like a smaller
plate set within a larger one. This was
not a flower, but a receptacle, and there
exuded into it a clear tl'eacly liquid hon
ey, S -V'cet, and possessed of violent in
toxicatir™ and soporific properties.
Lorn underneath the rim (so to speak)
of the undermost plate, a series, of long
hairy tendrils stretchedjout in every di
rection toward the horizon. These
were seven or eight feet long, and ta
pared from four inches to half inch in
diameter, yet they stretched out as stiffly
as iron rods. Above these (from be
tween the upper and under cud) six white,
almost transparent palpi' reared them
selves toward the sky, twirling and
twisting with a marvelous incessant mo
tion, yet constantly reaching upward.
Thin as reeds and frail as quills, appa
rently, were yet five or six feet tall, and
were so constantly and vigorously in
motion, with such a substile, sinuous,
silent throbbing against the air, with
their suggestions of serpents flayed, yet
dancing on their tails. My observations
on this occasion were suddenly inter
rupted by the natives who had been
shrieking around the tree with their
shrill voices, and chanting what Hen
drick told me were propitiatory hymns
to the great tree devil. \\ ith still wil
der shrieks and chants they now sur
rounded one of the women, and urged
her w r ith the points |ox the javelins, un
til slowly, and with despairing face, she
climbed up the stalk of the tree, and
stood on the summit of the cone, the
palpi twirling all about her. “Tisk,Tisk! ’
(Drink! drink!) cried the men. Stoop
ing, she drank of the viscid fluid in
the cup, rising instantly again, with
wild frenzy in her face and convulsive
cords in her limbs. But she did not
jump down as she seemed to intend to
do. Oh, no! The atrocious cannibal
tree, that had been so inert and dead,
came to sudden savage life. The slen
der delicate palpi, with the fury of starv
ed serpents, quivered a moment over
her head, then, as if instinct with demo
niac intelligence,fastened upon her in sud
den coils round and round her neck and
arms, and while her awful screams and
yet more awful laughter rose wild
ly to be instantly strangled down again
into a gurgling moan, the tendrils one
after another, like great green serpents,
with brutal energy and infernal rapidity,
rose.protracted themselves, and wrapped
her about in fold after fold, evert ighten
ing with cruel swiftness and savage te
nacity of anacondas fastening upon their
prey. It was the barbarity of the Lao
ooou without its beauty—this strange,
horrible murder. And now the great
leaves rose slowly and stiffly, like the
arms of a derrick, erected themselves in
the air, approaced one another, and
closed about the dead and hampered
victim with the silent force of a hy
draulic press and the ruthless pur
pose of a thumb screw. A moment
more, and while I could see the basis of
the great levers pressing more tightly
toward each other, from their interstices
there trickled down the stalk of the tree
great streams of the viscid honey-like
fluid, mingled horribly with the blood and
oozing viscure of the victim. At sight
of this the savage hordes around me.
yelling madly, bounded forward, crowded
to the tree, clasped it, and with cups,
leaves, hands and tongues, each one ob
tained enough of the liquid to send him
mad and frantic.
The New York Mail has intrenched it
self behind a long line of facts, and feels
its fortified position secure enough to
make the following demonstration for
the admiration of its readers :
“Bunker, of Bunker’s Hill, is not now
living. He expired peacefully some
years since, in his bed, surrounded by
his weeping family. His death was the
result of a liilluess previously contracted,
which he could hilly bear, wherefore he
flew—if we may be allowed the expres
sion—to other hills he knew not of.”
Such a statement Breed's mischief, or
is likely to, and we must inform our con
temporary tLat although the British
made the redoubtable old fellow sick, it
is the prevailing impression in these
parts that his nausea disappeared as
as soon as he had thrown up some in
trenchments.

SUPERB PREMIUM ENGRAVING
FOIi 1875.

GEN. WASHINGTON S FIRST INTESYIEW
WITH HIS WIFE.
GET UP YOUR CLUBS AT ONCE.
This magnificent premium engraving is to re
ward those who get up clubs for
VE T Ell SON *8 MAG A ZIN E,
for 1875. It is after an original picture by the
celebrated artist Et.ninger, and represents the
first interview of Washington with the fair
widow who afterwards became his wife, and is
known iu history as Lady Washington. The
story is quite romantic. During the great French
and Indian war of 1755, Washington, then about
to proceed to the froLtier, stopped for an hour’s
refreshment at the hospitable mansion known
then, as now, as the White House, in Virginia.
There he met, for tlui first time, the fair widow
who afterwards became his wife. Beguiled by
her charms and conversation, he remained hoar
after hour, his orderly leading his horse to and
froacross the lawn. It is this incident which
tlieengraving represents.
It is the Largest and Most Costly
We have ever offered, and can only be had of
us, as it will not be sold elsewhere. At a retail
store similar pictures are sold at from six to ten
dollars each. It is engraved in the very highest
style of the art after an original picture, and for
patriotic as well as artistic reasons ought to be
in every home in America.
To accommodate the tens of thousands of
persons who will desire to have this engraving,
we offer it as a premium to persons getting up
clubs for 1875.
