ABLBXP. BY BOS* TEUUY COO 111 > In summer-time how fair It showed— My garden by the village road, Where flery stalks of blpisom glowed. And roses soltly blushed; i With uxure spires und garlands white, Palo heliotrope, the aim’s delight, And odors that perfumed the night Where'er the south wind rushed. There solemn purple pansies stood Gay tulips red with floral blood, And wild things iresh from field und wood Alive with dainty graco. Deep heaven-blue bells of columbine, The darkly-mystlc passion vine, And clematis that loves to twine, Bedecked that happy place. Beneath the strong, unclouded blna Of long and fervent summer days Their colors smote the passing gnzo, And duzzlod every eye. Their cups of scented honey-dew Charmed All the bees that o'or tfiein flew, And butterflies of radiant hue Paused as they floated by. Now falls a cloud of sailing snow, The bitter winds of winter blow, No blossom dares Its cup to show— Earth folds them in her breast; A shroud of white, a virgin pall, Is slowly, softly hiding all; In vain shall any sweet wind call To break their silent rest My garden is a vanished dream, Bead in the waning moon’s cold beam, Clear icicles above it gleam ; And yet—l know not how— My flowers will hour the dropping-rain When spring ronoweth hill and plaiu, And then It shall be min© again; It is God’s garden now. —Hf Tver's Magazine DIFFICULTIES OF A WIT NESS. You must got around early in the morning, my dear,” said Mr, Spoopeu dyke, “because I’m going to be a wit ness in court.” “Good gracious !” -exclaimed Mrs. Spoopendyke, “wlmt have you been do ing?” “ What d’ye s’pose I’ve been doing ? I’ve heard some things in a law case, and I’ve got to swear to them. You can’t have a law ease without witnesses, and I’ve got to be one to-morrow; so you hustle out in the morning and get my breakfast.” “ They can’t do anything to you, can they?” inquired Mrs. Spoopendyke, nervously. “ If I ain’t there in time they can send me to* jail, ” responded Mr. Spoopendyke, ominously; “and you’d better get me ready in time, if you don’t want to lose me,” and Mr. Spoopendyke hopped into bed and went to sleep. Mrs, Spoopendyke turned the clock ahead two hours, arranged her hair, and sat down to speculate on the chances of waking at the proper moment. At first she concluded to stay up all night, but she began to get sleepy, and, reflecting that if she fixed her mind on the hour she wanted to rise she’d be sure to wake up, she w r ent to bed and to sleep simul taneously. At half-past 4 she roused up with a terrified start. “Wake up, my dear,” she exclaimed to her husband. “ You’ve got to go ,a witnessing in a case tills morning. Hur rv up. or they’ll put you in jail.” "“ W all!" responded Mr. Hpoopen dyke. , “ What did the heed get mixed there with—poof—ah !” and Mr. Spoop endyke was sound asleep again. “You must get right up and go to court,” said Mrs. Spoopendyke firmly. ‘ ‘ You know r something about a law court and you must wake up right off.” “What’s the matter ?” propounded Mr. Spoopendyke, sitting up and glar ing around him. “ What day of the month is this ? Who called Spoopen dyke? I ain’t slept a wink,”, and Mr. Spoopendyko fell back on his pillow. “ Yon know you must go to the case," continued Mrs. Spoopendyke. “ You’ve been appointed a witness and you must go and swear about it. Wake up, or they will .arrest you.” “What case?” demanded Mr. Spoop endyke'. “Who’s arrested? Can’t you let a man alone just as lie’s getting in a doze? What’s the matter with you, anyway ?” “You wanted to get up early about some- court. Come, get up, now, or they’ll send yon to jail,” and Mrs. Spoopendyke got up and lighted the cas and began dropping on her skirts. “Who’s going to court?” asked Mr. Spoopendyke, sitting up in the bed. ‘ ‘ Where’s tho court ? Think any court waits me at 5 o’clock in the morning ?” “It’s about a law ease,” said Mrs. Spoopendyke, cheerfully. “You know you are a witness. To think that I should live to be the wife of a witness 1” and Mrs. Spoopendyke, firmly impressed that it was somethin*? in the nature of a foreign mission, gazed admiringly upon her husband. “Dod gast the law case 1” howled Mr. Hpoopendyke, now thoroughly mad. “ D’ye think a law case goes prowling around all night like a policeman ? Got an idea that a Judge is going to strap the Court House on his batik and fetch it up here at daylight to try a law ease ?” “But you said you wanted to get up early,” reasoned Mrs. Spoopendyke, “ audit’s pretty early now.” . “D’ye s’pose I wanted to get up at midnight to practice ?” propounded Mr. Sp' in dyke. “Think a law case is ffiurch-sociable. the first man ‘he best supper? P'raps you if I didn’t start early I seat. The measly court ’ 0 o’clock, dod gast it; me up at 4 ! What ess is, anyhow?” V.e, getting mad lie’s a dark 'th his slide ut of tho v 'die, If I had your intelligence and a bald head, I’d hire out for Judge at board wages. I toll yo a court is a plaoe where they try eases about land, and licking people, aud contracts, and—and—di vorce cases. Yes. indeed.” continued Mr. Hpoopendyke, solemnly, •• they try divorce cases about women waking their husbands up in tho dead of night” “ What kind of a law easo are you go ing to witness ?” inquired Mrs. Spoopen dyke. “A daylight case i You understand tlmt ? At 10 o’clock, and not 5. Got that.' through you* head? Think you can n member 10 o'clock ? If you oan’t can you remember 11, or noon ?’’ “Do they have eases every hour?” queried Mrs. Hpoopendyke. “Of course they do. They leave every fifteen minutes, like a ferryboat, and if I cau't catch one ease I’ll bo wit ness in another. Got it now ? Only they don’t inn as often from midnight to G. Begin to see into it ?” “1 think I do,” said Mrs. Spoopen dyke, ruminating. “ I was thinking that if one started at ft o’clock, I'd go and witness with you.” “Oh, you’d make a witness!” pro claimed Mr. Spoopendyke. “With your capacity lor observing and ability to recollect, you would only want to appear twieo to absorb the whole wit ness business,” and, with this reflection, Me. Hpoopcmly lee went track to Ills slumbers. At 10 o’clock sharp liis wife called him and notified him of the hour. “ Ilow’m I going to got there in time ? Why didn’t you call me before ? Want me sent to State prison for contempt ? Want to get rid of me, don’t you?” and Mr. Spoopendyke darted into his clothes. “ Dou’t you want some breakfast, my clear ? ” inquired Airs. Spoopendyke, tenderly. “No, I don’t want any measly break fast,” be shouted. “Didn’t I tell ye I was a witness at 10, and now it’s half past. Tliiuk a man is appointed witness during good behavior ? S’pose I hold tile office till my successor is appointed ?” and Air. Spoopendyke plunged down stairs and out of the house. “I only did what he told me to,” sighed Airs. Spoopendyke, wetting a piece of court-plaster and patching up a hole in her silk dress. “Though I don’t see any use of a man being a witness if he can’t be a witness when he wants to. If I were a man,” she continued, as she flopped down ou the floor to change her boots, “ I’d get appointed by the Presi dent, and then I could attend to business or not, as I liked,” with which sage re flection Airs. Spoopendyke pulled out her husband's socks and began to sow wens three inches in diameter on the heels. Till. J IOQDEX MAN. The most interesting statue to us, and perhaps the oldest image in Egypt, and, if so, in the world, is the Wooden Alan, which was found at Alemphis. This image, one metre and ten centimetres high, stands erect, holding a staff. The figure is full of life, the pose expresses vigor, action, pride; the head, round in form, indicates intellect. The eyes are crystal, in a setting of bronze, giving a startling look of life to the statue. It is no doubt a portrait. “There is nothing more striking,” says its discoverer, “than this image, in a manner living, of a person who has been dead six thousand years.” He must have been a man of mark, and a citizen of a state well civilized; this is not a portrait of & barbarian, nor was it carved by a rude artist. Few artists, I think, have lived since who could impart more vitality to wood. And if the date assigned to this statue is correct, sculp ture in Egypt attained its maximum of development six thousand years ago. This conclusion will be resisted by many, and on different grounds. I heard a clergyman of the Church of England say to his comrade, as they were looking at this figure: “It’s all nonsense; six thousand years! It couldn’t be. That’s before the crea tion of man.” “Well,” said the other, irreverently, ‘ ‘ perhaps this was the model. ” Charles Dudley Warner. REMARKABLE HISTORICAL FACTS. The battle of Waterloo was not an American victory, and it is a matter of doubt whether any Chinese took part therein. Boarding-houses were unknown in the island of Juan Fernandez at the time Mr. Selkirk resided there. J. ger-beer was unknown in the days of Ptolemy. The O’Byun family are descended from the constellation Orion. There are no existing Sanscrit manu scripts of Puss in Boots. The melodies of Alother Goose are un doubtedly the nroduction of Tupper. Postage was not prepaid on the letters of Junius. The egg broken by Columbus was hard-boiled. Samson is presumed to have been the first gentleman that ever traveled on his muscle. The Yankeeism, “Do Tell,” was originally used by a boy named Albert, to bis father, a Swiss gentleman, famous for his skill with the bow. “Indian corn” would aeem to indicate that tho aborigines had an occasional need of tho services of a chiropodist. Salt was originally manufactured in the upper stories of buildings, hence sometimes called Attic.

The sense of economy and thrift of tho Frenoh people is especially striking to those who have lived much in other countries. Nearly everybody possesses something in this oountry. If anybody does not, you may bo pretty sure it is his own fault. Love of economy often verges on avarice. Go into any house in Paris, question the servants, and you may be certain that almost every one of them has somo small treasure in the shape of cash or bonds. It is tho saving of every day. The old servant in the house will often consult his muster about how ho is to employ his money. 'Dio head servant of a privnte house here, who has oftou filled my glass at table, lias saved enough to bring him in £7OO a year. He has been for twenty-flvo years in tho same situation, mid does his duty as strictly as lie did the first day of his service. Ho seldom goes out, never takes anything between his meals, and all ho gains is carefully put aside. I have met with so many examples that I am hound to believe this thrift to be the rule. A careful observer, who has occa sion to mix with the middle classes in France, will be even more struck by the qualities I have indicated. The whole mode of living is made subservient to tho children ; the babe has hardly seen daylight before the parents are already saving for him. Every child’s future is provided for at his cradle by the earnest efforts of liis parents, and it is rarely their fault if they do not succeed. There is a curious exception to this al most general rule—the workman, the artisan. Here you find many, and es pecially the better paid, in towns and cities, who have not preserved the good qualities of their fellow-countrymen, Here you find drunkenness, improvi dence, and with them Communism. Still it may be confidently declared that these are a small minoritv.— Times. [Vj'silanti (Midi.) Commercial.] Our representative lately learned the following from Mr. Carl Siegmund, Cor.

A cloud less sky and the full-blown rose leave him unmoved; hut the violet which hides its blushing beauties behind the bush, and the moon when emerging from behind a cloud, are to him sources of in spiration and of pleasure. Alodesty is to merit what shade is to a figure in pointing-—it gives boldness and promi nence. Nothing adds more to female beauty than modesty. It sheds around the countenance a halo of light that is borrowed from virtue. Botanists have given the rosy hue which tinges the cup of the white rose the name of “ maiden blush.” This pure and delicate hue is tho only paint Christian virtue should use. It is the richest ornament. A woman without modesty is like a faded flower diffusing au unwholesome odor, which the prudent gardener will throw from him. Her destiny is melancholy, for it terminates in shame and repent ance. Beauty passes like tho flowers, which bloom and die in a few hours; hut modesty gives the female charms which supply the place of tran sitory freshness of youth.

Wesley advised him not to think of it. “ Why,” said the other, “ she is a mem ber of your church, isn’t she ?” “Yes,” was the reply. “ And you think she is truly a Christian woman?” “Yes,” said Wesley, “I believe she is.” “ Well, then, why not marry her ?” “ Because,” replied Wesley—“because, mr friend, the Lord can live with a great many people that you and 7 mn’t 1” A reporter of the Brie Dispatch wrote, a funtiy article about a leading German of that place, and everybody laughed.

HED-HOT IEOX IX THE MOVTH. Prof. Semantini, of Naplos, after va rious experiments upon himself, says that ho found that by friction with sul phurio acid, diluted with water, tho skin might be mado insensible to the action of the heat of red-hot iron. A solution of alum, evaporated until it became spongy, appeared to be more effectual in these frictions. After having nibbed the parts, which were thus rendered, in some degree, incombustible, with hard soap, he discovered, on the application of hot iron, that their insensibility was increased. He then determined on again rubbing the parts with soap, and after this found that the hot iron not only occasioned no pain, but that it actually did not burn the hair. Being thus far satisfied, the professor appliod hard soap to his tongue until it became in sensible to tho heat of the iron; and, after having placed an ointment com posed of soap mixed with a solution of alum upon it, boiling oil did not burn it. While tho oil remained on the tongue a slight kissing was heard, similar to that of hot iron when thrust into water. The oil seen cooled, and might then be swallowed without danger. Several sci entific men have since successfully re peated tho experiments. Maine A'ews. Hop Bitters, which are advertised hi our columns, are a sure cure for ague, bilious ness and kidney complaints.

W find in the Bouton Herald some talk about “ ceasing to patronizo a news paper” and also about “ newspaper pat ronage.” It is a stupid phrase. We do not consider anybody patronizes a nowspaper when he buys it; or that the newspaper is under any obligations to any one who either purchases a copy or inserts an advertisement. II it is a wise and sound newspaper, the pur chaser or advertiser gets the value of his money, and the amount is even be tween them. The only situation in which the word patronage can be proper ly used, in such a case, is where tho the newspaper is mean and worthless, and the man pays for his copy or for his advertisement more than the thing is really worth. In that sort of circum stances there may be patronage in the base sense of the word—the sense iu which the Herald employs it. Tho idea of patronage contains in it something of servility. It has no place in the Ameri can republic. It ought to be repudi ated and detested by every self-respect ing newspaper and every self-respecting citizen.— New York Sun. ALLITERATION'S ARTFUL AID.
