Still smile* upon the scene ;
And. as hi* crimson rays
Fall softly from above,

Whose atmosphere is love.

Far from the world of care
LosTm th’ enchanting dream’of love,
Behold a happy pair.;
Their souls together bound ;
For each within the other’s heart*
A retting place has found.
Beside them runs a brook ’ * “5
Whose wavelets, bright and dear,
Laugh softly at the words of love
He pours into her ear.]
Be ion them wavea a field,
Of bright and golden grain,
Whose soft and allk en leaven repeat
The happy tale again.
Above them tower* an oak,
Whose foliage green and bongha
Whiaper together of tlieir sweet
And oft repeated vows.
And gentle xeplir's breath.

Floats softly ’round the placed scene
When love and beauty meet.

And gentle rays from fairy-land;
Their tiny offering bring.
The scene, indeed, is one

For natures loveliest works are here
To beautify the place.
Miscellaneous Selections.
.1/ the Ball.
Now that the round faced sun, that impe
rial old Harry the Eighth of the sky, begins
to lose caste with the incoming mellowness
of September, and October, standing in the
immediate background, holds the belles, hab
itues and debutantes of social life in her shin
ing hands, ready to open the society ball in
the proper time, the following bit of social
gossip from the pen of a graceful lady con
tributor is very apf and to the point. We
recognize in it many of our acquaintances as
well as four own, with the certainty, how
ever, that a self-recoguition won’t extend to
themselves:
Here, there, everywhere, the stylish look
ing girl who has evidently much reputation
among her set for beauty. She intests the
stairs and conservatory between dances and
wears the expression of carrying on flirtations,
tint senseless amusement of mediocre people.
She teases herself about some man or other,
and her talk is made up of affected archness,
affected Englishisms and unaffected folly;
such phrases as "Ever so nice, don’t you
know, “ Dead loads of money,” “ Had such
n jolly time, for 1 was the only American
present; all the rest foreigners,” filling up
largely. She has plenty of partners for the
dance but none for life offering, and her
chaperon, who is taking short naps while
the band is braying in her ears, is dejected
by reason thereof.
There are girls who are carefully shunned
by men of every age and condition. They
have pale faces, hair the color of unwashed
wool and invariably wear pink roses. You
never see the shadow even of a man fall on
them. They never-leave the wall, and yot
sometimes there is a vacancy in the ranks,
ami on inquiry it turns out that the vacatur
has guue on her wedding tour, and when the
husband is produced for public inspection he
is an intelligent, agreeable man. Why he
marries is a mystery, unless he is actuated
by the same feeling which makes women buy
a cheap dress, because they can get two for
what one would come to. But little do men
know ti.ete cheap women. They live for
ever nnd often have the pleasure of seeing a
[and attaches himself to some young beau-
; ty who scorns his antiquated vows and com
pliments. Theleader ofthegermau is hand-
! some and looks as if he “had a history and a
; mystery.” His figure is superb, his clothes
fit faultlessly, his eyes are the color of a pond
of water in the shade nnd have an expression,
one-third melancholy, one-third tenderness,
one-third dare-devilish. He shows unaffect
ed indifference for women, and of course is
adored by them. He is poor exceedingly
trifling, and parents eye hitn with disfavor.
That admirable creature, the safe young
man, stands by a soft-eyed, pink-aud-white
little girl, whose face shows she wishes him—
farther. His raiments alwayslooks of it had
been made for some one else, and he is too
sensible to talk society nonsense. He only
dances quadrilles and'fathers dote upon him,
although daughters will none of him.
“The gentleman,” says Emerson, “is a man
of truth, lord of his own actions, and express
ing that lordship in his behavior, net in any
manner dependent and servile either on per
sons or opinions or possessions. Beyond
this fact of truth and real force the word de
notes good nature or benevolence; manhood
first nnd then gentleness.” I do not fell ns
if I could improve on this definatiou, so put
it here as a good description of the few ele
gant men of the world you will see say one
to every thousand. You recognize the man
at once by his quietly saying the right thing
in the right place and never bring in any
one’s way, or rather his easy superiority
makes underbread people inelt before him.
He possesses the clothes-wearing faculty, and
his eyes are—let me see—I have a theory
that character is shown as much in the color
as in the expression of eyes. Black eyes,
glittering like a doll’s, belong to plebeian
blood, and the women who have them wear
Japanese switch curb and “a keep of compa
ny with fellows” who are also black-eyed and
wear red ties. Soft brown eyes belong to
noble hearted, generous people, hazel eyes to
intellect, grey ej’es to mendacity and dark
blue eyes to a king. The well-bred man,
then, shall have blue eyes.
