man. with a low masaira tower, a grand
majestic nave, and a choir full of atatoly
historic tombs. The whole city ia ho
quiet am! decoruh a place, that the per
petual daily chants aad hymns of praise
seemed to wound far and wide over the
roofs of the houses. Ellinor soon Imuiiuu
a regular attendant at all the morning
and evening services. The sense of wor
ship calmed sud soothed her aching,
! weary heart, aud to bo punotunl to the
I cathedral hours she roused aud exerted
| herself when probably nothing else would
have been suffioient to this end.
By-aud-by Alisa Mouro formed ju%ny N
acquaintances: slie picked up, »>r was *
picked np by, old friends, and the de
scendants of old friends. The gruvo and
kindly cations, whose children she taught,
oslled upon her with their wives, and
talked over the former do-ms and chap
ters, of whom she had had both a person
al and traditional knowledge, and as they
walked away they Ltikod sbout her silent*,
delicate-looking friend, Miss Wilkins, and
perhaps planned some little present out
of their fruitful garden or bounteous
stores which should make Miss Monro's
table a little more tempting to ouo appa

“Why so?" we asked.
“Well," she answered, “during the war
the greater part of tlio hotel was seised
by the Government ns a hospital, and w#
wore clouded iuto a few rooms. My sis
ter and I had this. Iu thst room wber#
that littlo beauty is wore two Union offi
cers, oue sick of the fover and the other
of a wound. It was hard to toll whether
they were slowly dying or slowly getting
well. I never saw such ghastly skeletons
to bo ulivu. We wero ‘sooesh,' aud not
modest about it either, hut still our hearts
Hchcd for tho poor young men, so ill,
perhaps dying, far from friends and rela
tives.’’
“It bothers ono to know how this
should be a hospital," we said, “It was so
far removed from active operations.”
“It was thought," hIio answered, “that
the mountain air of tho glades would bo
more tavorahlo to recovery thau else
where, so this was made a hospital. Oue
day one of those officers dragged himself
to the window, and uudor the impulse of
tho moment my sister asked if w# could
do anything for them, and he answered,
gaspiug for breath, that u littlo chickeu
soup would save their lives. Chickens
wore rare in those days—nu army is hard
ou poultry. Tho men will work ull night,
ufter marching duiing tho day, to secure
a few chickens; ho that while the hos
pital nurses and physicians had au unlim
ited supply of actual luxuries iu Ilia way
of wines, potted moats and canned veg
etables, they wore without anything fresh.
We know where a tow chickens were hid
in a cellar, by a neighbor, and wo coaxed
one out of the owner, and after a deal of
vexatious truublo, for at every turn wo
were mot by a find bayonet and un in
sult, we got the soup ready, nud an the
guurd in tho hall would not permit us to
approach our patients, my sister attempt
ed to hand the bowl to tho officer in the
window. Just as lie was feebly reselling
for if, and she stretching herself half out
to give it to him, h harsh, ugly voice be
low cried out, ‘Look out there—poison.'
Sho nearly dropped herself, soup aud all.
Drawing back, she hesitated h second,
and then she took tho spoon uud begau
eating the broth. ‘Oil! bother,' cried
the officer, ‘don’t waste it in that way —
I’m not afraid ;' and so sho gave him the
soup. It scented to revive them, and
they continued steadily to improve a**
day after day wo supplied them with
chicken broth until the cellar whs empty.
During this time we sat at the windows
talking, and we sang to them—sang ‘My
Maryland’ and all the Southern songs we
knew, uutil they were well enough to
leave the hospital mid return to dity.
They both seemed sorry to go, and forced
on us a quantity of hospital stores and
Homo coffee, which last we needed sadly.
Thou one gave a ring and the other a
brooch as tokens of their kind feelings.”
“And did they never return?" we asked.
“One did not, for, poor fellow, ho was
killed in the very next battle in which he
whs engaged. His companion wrote us
•bout it, and the writer inaisted upon
opening a correspondence with my sister;
and soon his letters grew into love lottors,
and after a time they were engaged.
Nearly a year subsequent to this our pa
tient got leave of absence, end came on
t# bo married. Ho put up at a hotel, and,
will you boliove it, our own brother, who
was in the Confederate service and knew
nothing of my sister's affair, led a band
of guerrillas ut night into town and esp-
tured hia intended brother-in-law from
his bod. This not only deforred the mar
riage, but deprived the young West
Pointer of his promotion, that had been
promised for gallant services in ths Hold.
It was really aggravating, for exchanges
had almost ceased, and it looked as if the
lovers would have to wait until ‘this cruel
war was over’ before they ‘could be uni
ted.’’
“You should have appealed to Abraham
Lincoln to give a married brigadier for an
unmarried lieutenant.”
We did bettor. Procuring peases, we
went through the linns and appealed to
Jell* Davis. Jeff said he wonld put my
brother's prisoner in his sister’s keeping.
They have been happily married those
many years. He is a brevet brigadier
general now, and it all esrneof our nurs
ing the enemy in thnt room."

Mspicai. Vamjk op Asparagus and Cur.
fry.—A medical correspondent auys that
the ndvautngcs of asparagus arc not Hiiffl- ,
ciently appreciated by those who suffor
with rhauumtisni and gout. Slight coses !
of rheumatism are cured in a few days by i
feeding on this dolieious esculent;* and
more chronic cases are much relieved, !
especially if the patient avoids all acids,
whether in food or bovernge. The Jeru- ,
adorn artichoke has also a similar effect
relieving rheumatism. Tho lionets may '
be eaten in the uruhI way ; but toa made
from tho leaves of tho stalk, and drank -
throe or four times a day, is n certain
remedy, though not equally agreeable. <
It may he woll to remark that most, plants
which grow naturally near the sea coast | (
contain more or less iodine, and in all ! ,
rheumatic complaints iodine has long
been a favorite remedy. loditio is dan
gerous, however, in overdoses, affecting i i
especially the eyes. Tho samo effect may [
be produoed by eating abundantly of as- 7
paragns or celory, which aro weil-knowu
seaside plants. 1 (
“Cat Tails" as Food.—It is not gen-j
orally known thut the common oat-tail of 1
onr swamps (Typlio lntifolia) is in sonic 1 •
countries highly esteemed ns.nn article of
food. The plant is a perennial, and in- !
creases itself by underground stems, or
rhizomes, which contain a largo amount
of starchy matter. Tho young shoots, ,
when they push up in spring, are g.dh-
orod and bundled ns wo tie nsparagiw,
and are sold everywhere in the markets * f
southern Bussia. Dr. Clark, who Ims
eaten of it in those regions, tells us it is u
delicious dish. It is boiled similar {<• a 1 (l
paragns and seasoned with salt and spice.
Typha is the Greek name for marsh, in
which the plant delights to grow. I is
found more or less nil over the United “
States, varying very much in the width
of its loaves nud of its dense inllorcsccm n

Max Adder iu the J>unbiiry JVeiCM re
fern as follows to au importaut invention
Some time ago my friend Coffin in
vented a “Patent Swinging Berth,” which
was a sura preventive of Hca-siokuess. A
man who occupied one of therm berths,
so Coffin said, might h til out to China and
back without a qualm of the stomach. Iu
order to prove ttio efficacy of tho inveu
tion, Coffin got permission to rig one uj
in a stenuiei' running from Philadelphia
to Boston, and ho a-ked hums friends
along to soo how splendidly it worked.
Whilo going down th.- rive Coffin was in
high spirits, talking incessantly. When
lhe boat began lo round Cape May ho
said bo felt tired and wanted to lie down
awhile in the Patent Berth. About nn
hour after the vessel got out upou tho
bosom of the ocean, C. ttin pu'led aside
tho curtains of the patent swinging berth
and asked if tho captain was on dock.
He said he wanted to n<e the captain
about something, and he insisted npon
going lip instead of having tho captain
come down to him. He rushed up the
gangway suddenly, and then tho captain,
looking at hi* white face, asked him what
had scared him so badly. Coffin hurried
to tho side instead of replying, and seemod
manifest nn interest in the apponrance
of tho sea. Then the captain asked him
if he was sick, and Coffin leaned further
over the side. He seemed to be trying lo
bring up a breakfast thut he ate during
the early part of the Mexican war; and
hud worked pretty well down
towards it, lie asked the steward to carry
him down stairs, as ho was always weak
when he had n bilious attack. Tho stew
ard triod to place him in the Patent Berth,
but Coffin said he believed ho would lie

him n tub. When bn friends went to
console him he said “How -oen will we

ment used is simply a very convenient
form of axo, with a hollow cylinder (like
a gun-wad punch) about six inches long
and one inch iu diameter, with its edge 1
ground sharp on tho end opposite tlio j
blade. A singlo blow with this end cuts I
a round holo in tho forohead, nud pro- |
dimes instant death. Under tho old
method it required fen or mote blows to
produce death.
