Across the River.
When for mo tho silent onr
Parts tho Silent River,
And 1 stand upon the shore
Of the strange Forever,
Shall I miss the loved and known?
Shull I vainly sick mine own?
Mid tho crowd Hint come to meet
Spirits hin-forgiven -
Listening to their echoing (eet
Down the streets of heaven—
Shall 1 know a footstep near
That 1 listen, wait for, here ?
Then will one approach the brink
With a band extended,
One whose thoughts 1 loved to think
Ere the vail was tended,
Saying ' Welcome ! we have died,
And again ore side by aide.*'
Saving. "I will go with thee,
That thou be not lonely,
To you hills of mystery :
1 hive waited only
Until now, (o climb with tlieo
Yonder bills of mystery.”
Can the bonds Unit make iis hero
Know ourselves Immortal,
Drop away, like foliage sear,
At lite's Inner portal ?
Wind U holiest below
Must forever live and glow.
I sltiill love the angels well,
Alter 1 have ImintI them
In the mansions where they dwell,
Willi the glory rouii t them.
But at flint, without am prise,
Let uie look in human eyes.
Step by slop our feet must go
Up the holy mountain ;
Drop by drop within us (low
Life's unfailing loiintniii.
Angels sing with crowns that burn ;
We shuil have uVotig to learn.
He who on our earthly path
Bids us help each other—
Who his IVell-Hclovcu l.nlli
Made our Elder Brother—
W ill but clasp the chain of love
Closer when we meet above.
Therefore drentl I not to go
O’er the Silent River.
Death, thy hastening o.ir I know-;
Bear me. thou Life-giver,
Through the waters, to tlm shore,
When mine own have gone before!

Giving Willing Boys a Clianco.
Tho li'Moii inculcated in llio following
brief nkctcli is worth ntudying :
A greon, rustic lad camo yearn ago
to tho metropolis, liom a Connecticut
villugo. Al homo ho hud done well in
a him.Llo wav, but ho hud shown no
marked nbility. Ho hud read and
heard of tho wonderful city, llo made
up hia mind ho could do something in
it. When he reached tho city no place*
seemed opocl to him. Day after day
ho hunted for business. Want stared
him in tho fue-o. IIu would not go back
to his friends. Dropping into a largo
dry goods hotido one day in tho Hearch
for work, ho chanced to uomo fnco to
face with tho proprietor. "Wo have
nothing for you to do, sir," thin groat
buHiness man said in reply to his inqui
ry, "but stay, what can you do,” hu con-
tinuod, "you Hocm to be an honcbt look
ing lud.”
“0, sir, I cun do anything—only try
mo. Only give mo a chance to do some
thing!” And thu tears camo out and
trickled down tho ctieeka of tho nlmogt
dtHcourugod forlorn boy, though lie
tried us hard ah ho could to roprcHH
them. "1 will take tho poorcat placo
and do my host I”
llo was engaged and sot lo work.
Ho wan sont down into tho collur nnd
commenced his business career in Now
York by pounding on bent nails, which
had been thrown in a pile beside tho
pucking boxes, so they could bo used
again. This was his work for two
weeks, and ho buroly kept body nnd
soul together on the pay ho received.—
Then ho was put in a bettor place.—
Then ho rose to ho u clerk, and no clork
was so hard working, so faithful, so in
tonated in all this great house us him
self. Ho saw his clianco nnd counted
up in his own busy brain every point in
tho gnnto.
In five yours from tho time ho sut on
a bench pounding nails straight, ho sat
on thu imuiagoi’s scat, and hammered
tho crooked ins and outs of tho business
straight. During his clorkshij) lie nev
er missed a day ; and no morning wont
by without his reporting promptly at 7
o’clock, llo saved money and piospwr-
cd as tho years wont by. Ho up Broad
way today, and you will sec his nuino
shining in goldon letters over tho cn-
trunco of olio of tho largest and finest
establishments. In (hat building there
is seventeen million dollars worth of
stock. His trade extends all over tho
land. Ilis fortune is princely. And
oven now, though tho grout merchant is
getting gray, nnd the old time energy
is waxing slow, a now light will come
into his eyes, nnd u now life into his
form, when ho tolls of those past days
of striving, nnd says to tho young men
around him : "Work, if you would
succeed : bo a true, faithful, earnest
cleik, if you would become a merchant
of position und importance.”
t&~ A witness was examined before
a judgo in a cuse of Blunder, who requir
ed him to repeat tho precise words spo-
Itofi. Tho witness, fixing his eyes ear
nestly upon tho judge, began: ‘Muy
it please your Honor, you lie, and steal,
und get your living by cheating/ The
face of the judge reddened, ami ho ex
claimed, ‘Turn your head to tho jury
when you speak,'
B®. "Bid you know,” said a cunning
Gentile to a Jow, "that they hang .lows
and jackasses together in Portland
"Indeed, den it ibh voll yon nnd I. ioh
uot dcre.”
I Daro You.
Pooh ! I could do it cnsily, nnd bo
hack hero again, before you could count
fifty.’
‘May bo so; but you don’t dtiro to
try it!’
‘Don’t daro ! now Tom you know hot
ter/
‘Well, I daro you 1*
Tho boy’s eyes flushed. In a moment
he was over tho boundary lino, skating
skillfully over tho forbidden ico; while
his schoolmate looked on, sumo with
astonishment, some with four, nnd a few
with shouts of applauses. Clear to
tho other sido hu wont, though tho ico
cracked and bent; thou, with a grace
ful turn he was coming towards them
again, swift or nnd swifter, with a look
of pride on his glowing face ; nnd the
pr.iiaes of tho other boys already sound
od in his ears :—
'Good for you, Win 1’
'Hurrah for’
Who ? Whore was ho ? Where tho
proud form and tho smiling face, nnd
thu dark hair uncovered in tho momuut
of exultation ? Gone 1 hidden at onco
from thoir sight, under tho ico, and tho
waters rose up over the spot, ns if thoir
time of triumph had come then.
‘Oh ! what shall wo do ?’
‘Hun quick ! get n rope !'
•Stand buck every ono of you !' nnd
tho voico, generally so kind, frightened
them now with its BtcrnnoRfl; and they
looked in eilenco at the teacher’s white
fuco, ns ho drew ofi his gown, nnd crept
with it to tho bouudnry lino which ho
had marked for tho boys tlint morning
Over that, too, so cheerfully,yet so quick
ly ; and tho ieo cracked ! And tho boys
could none of thorn tell how it was done,
only thut soon tho dark, dripping hair
of thoir schoolmato appeared nhovo tho
broken ico; then his body slowly,drag
ged towards them, his hand clutching
tightly tho toucher's dressing gown.
The tonehor did not speak, nnd they
dared not. In tho teachers own strong
arms, Winthrop was carried to tho
house, mid rubbed ; and, no, ho was not
dead ; for in a few minutes, ho opened
his oyos, nnd looked nt tho group of.
anxious boyish faces gathered round ho
said: 'All right/ How it brightened
every heart there ! Tho hoys could speak
now.
•Oh Win, I haven't counted fifty yet
burst out Tom, excitedly, nnd trying to
lailgh ; but if ho hud not been a boy, ho
would certainly hnvo cried instead.
'Now lot mo hoar all about it,’ said
their lonelier, ns the color enmo back
into Winthrop'a cheeks.
'It's till my fault/ snid Torn, humbly.
‘Hmv came you to disobey my rule,
Winthrop, uud go beyond thu bounda
ry ?’
'Why, I hardly thought about the
rule sir; I wanted to let them suo I
wasn't afraid of tho ico ! T’lioy dared
me to do it; nod when any oue dares
IDO to a thing *•’
Winthrop stopped suddenly, ns (Ire
recollection camo over him of tho cold,
gurgling wntore, nnd of thusu low, terri
bly momenta of snsponce.
‘Then you always daro to do it; is
that what you moon ?’
'Yob, sir;’ but the voice was not so
full of confidence ns it had been half nn
hour boforu.
'And the eud of your during, this
time might hnvo boon—duuth I’
A shudder cropt over tho boy’s heart.
'Oh, sir, please don’t! 1 dared him I'
said jieor Tom.
‘And so you think a boy is a coward
who is dared to do u thing and doesn't
do it?’
‘,t looks no,’ said Winthrop.
‘Ah, my boy, you must gut rid of that
idea ; )l is all wrong ! llo who refuses
to do a sinful or dangerous thing, even
when pcoplo suy, 'I dmo you/ is a true
hero; and ho who runs ull risks to do
something just- because ho is dared, is
by fur tho most cowardly and foolish —
Don’t look-so down hearted. Winthrop
1 want you to.be truly heroic, und I
'kuo\y you can do things very bravely
| sometimes. For instance, if I should
sny you may not go skating another
I day this winter, you would hoar the
I punishment without compluint, I think.’
‘Yus, air,' auid tho boy, with a touch
of thu old pride in his voice.
1 ‘.Mayn't J hear tho punishment? It
was my fault/ said Tom.
1 "I hiivn’t given any punishment yet,
i Tom; I hnvo only given this lesson
' about true bravery for you ull to learn.
' And now, bo off every ono of you, nnd
' let Winthrop rest, wbUo I g<> and ex-
1 ninlno my dressing-gown ; nnd if it is
entirely ruined I'll pass u subscription
round among you to get n now one.’—
i And tho kind rnuii smiled us ho loft them,
but Ids heart was lull; and ho wont to
thunk God for llio safety of his pupil,
and to pruy that he might become uruvo
nnd noble.
Hoys, nevor be dared into doing
what is wrong Do not tuko ono step
aside from tho sufa and straight path,
no matter how muny voices say ‘I daro
you.’ Ho bruve enough to say ‘I daro
not/ to every temptation. And always
“Daro to bo right l dnro to bo true I

flei)r An elderly gentleman travelling

The Siamese Twins-
Appleton’s Journal gives us a brief
glimpso of an account of the Siamese
Twins, which will ho found very inter
esting, nnd correct tho opinion too
generally boliovod in regard to them :
‘Tho Sinmoso Twins, Messrs. Chnnp
nnd Eng Ilunkor, who have long resi
ded in Noith Carolina, and lost their
property during tho war, have gone to
England to make a littlo money by ex
hibition. Tho oucstion of n surgical

results of recent examinations of thoir
conditions hnvo been published. They
nro fifty-eight years of ngo, short in
stature, Eng being five feet two nnd
ono hull' inches in hoight, nnd Ghnng nn
inch ahorlor. The band that unites
them sprang originally IVom tho lowor
portion of the breast bone, and at fust
held them fuce to face, but by efforts in
childhood, they were ennblod to stand
nearly shoulder to shoulder. Tho in
ner arms nro usually crossed behind
each other's bucks, but they cun bring
thorn forward over each other’s heads,
which is quite a curious movement, and
nro thus enable to use nil thoir hands
at meals. Tho cartilaginous • band
which joins thorn i'b about four inches
long, und seven in circumforcnco, at
tho centre. The nerves of each extend
a littlo beyond tho middle of the band,
so that a touch about nn inch on either
side of the centre is felt by both. There
is, of com sc, a slight communication of
tho blood vessels, but no intorclmngo of
blood, and no mutunl dcpondonco of
circulation or respiration. They nro,
therefore, independent in personality,
and nre simply two persons tied togeth
er by a living knot. Hut although thoir
mental operations are ontiroly distinct,
thoir life-long similarity of exporieucc
has brought thorn into an extraordinary
concord in thought and action.

Tho Messrs. Bunker married sisters,

wishes to have n father ull to itself.—
Tho question ol their separation has
been raised on this ground rather than
boenuso tho brothers dosiro it. Tho
surgeons think Unit thore is probably
no anatomical impediment to their sep
aration, but that tho inorul shock to two
not very robust mon, advanced iu lifo,
which would follow tho breaking of tho
chain of lifo-long habits, would prove
serious if not fatal.

Wiiat they Would Ho.—Suppose
that ull thu bonds, lies und connoctiona
at present existing through marriage
were suddenly sundered—suppose that
nil tho rnnrriud people, and unmarried
people too, were free to form whnt now
connections they dosired- -suppose, in
short, that without damage done to mor*
id or eocial order, evory existing, immi
nent, or possiblo marriage were to bo
quushed, upon ono particular day, nnd
people allowed to form, on the following
day, now combinations for tho rest of
their lives—how many of tho old com
binations would bo revived ? We pro
pound tho question in no cynical mood
whatever; and ccrtaiuly without the
least notion that such an abrogation of
murriago is desirable or probublo. But,
ns u mere speculation, imagine thut every
married man nnd woman wore legally
and morally permitted to-morrow morn
ing to go nnd marry somebody olso;
and then try to anticipate the extraor
dinary result of such a social convulsion.
That a very lurge numbor would rejoiee
to hnvo thoir present bonds annulled is
curtuin. That a largo numbor would,
after thoir past experiences, bo mortal
ly afraid of marrying again is probable.
That some linsbunJs und wives, who
had hithorto boon remarkable for thoir
afiectionate bearing toward each other
in public, would seize tho first moment
to tly usundcr, is also probable. That
not a few would leave their spouses,
nnd innrry other people's spouses simii
laily set free, is wo regret to beliovc,
possible. And thut n lurgo proportion
of tho people who thus would rush into
new combinations would in a short time
begin to regret thorn, and to wish for a
return of tho old state of affairs, wo may
take for granted. "What Married Men

An Old Fashioned Kitohen-
My grandmother's kituhen was a
great, wide, roomy apartment, whose
white Bunded floor was always ns clean
us hands could inako it. It was res
plendent with tho slioon of a sot ot
scoured pewter plates and platters,
which stood arranged on u dresser on
ono side. Tho grout firo-placo swept
quite ncross another sido. There wo
burned cord wood, and the tire was
built up on arcliitootural principles
known to tlioso days. First oamo in an
enormous back log, rolled in with tho
strength of two mon, on the top of which
was piled a smaller log; and thou a
fore stick of a sizo which Would outitlo
it to rank as a log in our time, wont to
make tho front foundation of the firo.—
Tho roaring of tho ample pile thereup
on was a mutter of no small architectu
ral skill, and nil tho ruling motnbors
of our family circlo had thoir own opin
ions about itB erection, which they main
tained with the /.cal und pertinucity
which becomes earnest people. My
grandfather, with his grave smile, in
sisted that ho wns tho only reosonablo

when ho had urraiigcd his sticks in tho
most nioliiodioul order, my grandmoth
er would bp sure to rush out with u
thumji hero and a twitch thore, and
divers incoherent exclamations tending
to imply that mon naver knew how to
build u firo. Frequently her intonso
zeal for immediate effect would end in
a general rout and roll of tbo slicks in
ull directions, with puffs of smoke down
tho chimney, requiring the sotting open
of tho outsido door; und thon Aunt
Lois would como to tho rescue, and,
with a face severe with determination,
