MORE CRUEL THAN WAR.
A correspondent of tho Kansas City
arch above our beautiful earth, once
mote arrayed in buds and green
leaves. Welcome, to the weary ones
of eartk, is tbe Sabbath! It was . in
deed to us, who arrived only a few
days before at our new home, and bad
been busy putting things to rights.- and was much odrpnsed when
My Friend
four letter, lady, came too late,
For Heaven had claimed its own;
Lh, sudden change—from prison-ban
Unto the great white throne!
Lnd yet I think he would have stayed
To live for his disdain,
Jould he have read the careless word
Which you have sent in vain.
Not even death had power;
lnd you—did others whisper low
Their homage in your ear,
Is tho’ amongst their shallow throng
His spirit had a peer V
! would that you were by me now,
To draw the sheet aside
lnd sec how pure the look he wore
The moment when he died.
Phe sorrow that you gave to him
Had left its weary trace.
Is ’twere the shadow of the Cross
Upon his pallid face.
‘ Her love, ” he said, “ could change
for me
The Winter's cold to Spring ;”
4h, trust oi tickle maiden's love,
Thou art a bitter tiling !
For when these valleys, bright in M;
Once more with blossoms wave,
rhe northern violets shall blow
Above his humble grave.
But one more pang to hear.
For him who kissed unto the lost
Your tress ol golden hair;
I did not put it where he said,
For when Ike angels come,
1 would uot have them find the sign
Of falsehood in the tomb.
I’ve read your letter, aud I know
The wiles that you had wrought
give
For what is worthless all;
What manly bosoms beat for truth
Id folly's falsest thrall!
You shall not pity him, for now
His sorrow has an end;
Yet would that you could stand with
mo
Beside my fallen friend;
And I forgive you for his sake,
As he—if he be given—
May e’en be pleading "race for you
Before the court of Heaven.
To-night the cold, winds whistle by,
As I my vigil keep
Within the prison dead-house, where
Few mourners come to weep.
A rude plank coffin holds his lbim;
Yet death exalts his face,
And 1 would rather sec him thus
Than clasped in your embrace.
To-night your home may shine with
lights,
And ring with merry song,
And you be smiling, as yo(ir soul
Had done no deadly wrong*;
Your hand so fair that noue would
think
It penued these words of pain;
four skin so white—would Gou
your
I'd rather be ray comrade dead
Than you in life supreme;
For your's the sinners waking dread,
And his the martyr’s dream.
Whom serve we in this life, we serve
In that which is to come;
Heclioschis way; you yours; let God
Pronounce the fitting doom.
The Indiana Critic.
An engineer on the Ohio and Mis
sissippi Railroad says one night the
train stopped to get wood and water
at a small station in Indiana. While
this operation was going on he ob
served two green looking countrymen
‘homespun,” curiously inspecting
the locomotive, and occasionally giv
ing veut to expressions of astonish
ment. Finally one of them looked up
to him and 3aid:
“ Stranger, air this a locomotive?”
“ Certainly ! Didn't you ever see
one before ?”
“ No, bavn't never seen one afore.
Me'o Bill come down to the station
to-night purpose to see one. Them*!
the feller, ain't it?”
“ That’s what’s the matter,” laughed
the engineer.
“ What you call that you're olaudin'
in?”
“We call this the cab.”
“ And this air big wheel?”
“ That’s the drive wheel.”
** That big black thing on top is the
cliimbl}*, I s'posc?”
“Precisely.”
“ Be you the man that runs this big
thing?* ,
u I am the engineer.”
“Bill,” said the fellow to his mate
after eyeing the engineer closely foy *
few minutes, “ it doD’t take much of a
man to run a locomotive, does it?”

A DAY OF_ PIONEER LIFE.
A lovely 8abbath mom! Not a
win, for monkeys lore to climb) wished
toefimban impromptu table I had
Placed in a comer to hold a few light
ornaments. Scolding - • threatening
did no good—up she went—down came
the table! Happy to my nothing sus
tained injury, not evemlhat child from
(lie spanking she received. All the
time I had a dim idea that sometime
ia the.aftemoon we should have din-
Our house, which stood in an' oak
grove, had two doors—one on the west,
the other on the eastern side, and five
roads leading to it I, and the boys
were going to have a cold diuner, late
the evening so os to dispense with
supper, and thereby give us more time
for our reading. After our early break
fast they got their books, I mine: and
hoped, for that day at least, we should
not sec neighbor or neighbor’s dog.—
Alas! I had just become interested in
‘Proverbial Philosophy,” when Hal
had occasion to go to the western door,
and said “Ob! Mother, some people
are coming! “Ohlylear,” said I, and
looked also. Sure enough, six were
coming. I laid my Tupper on the shelf,
and tried to persuade myself that, as
we were strangers, they would only
stop a little while, then go some where
else. Not so, however, foe they were
coming at full tilt As they were still
some distance from the house, I bod
time to feel somewhat reconciled to
our interruptiou, when my other little
boy exclaimed “mother, tiie balance
arc coming!” “My stars and gar—’»
but that exclamation did not culmi
nate, for the appalling sight of eight
more met my eye, coming from the
east! What must I do—go under the
bed—or raise a puncheon, and go un
der the bouse? No, I must do neither:
I must face the music. There is un
fortunately, a vein of the comic run
ning through my organization; and,
just as if I did not have worry enough,
I must, then and there, be struck with
the ludicrousness of the whole affair,
and go into an uncoutrollable fit of
daughter. 1 have no idea how long I
should have laughed, or how much
disgraced myself before my visitors,
had not the thbught of dinner, like the
bursting of a torpedo, sobered me.—
Yes, dinner to be prepared by myself
lor all these people. (There arc none
of “God’s images cut in ebony” here.)
So smoothing my face, and giving a
twitch here and there to my dress
(where is the woman who wouldn’t?)
I went forward to welcome my stran
ger guests. 1 shook hands, of course,
with all, from the oldest to the young
est, and before this ceremony was over
two more men caine up. Just think
of that! Sixteen bipeds and almost
as many quylrupeds! Such snapping
and snarling, with several “free fights’
thrown in, as we did have that day.—
I peeped around to see if any cats or
pet pigs were present There I sat
and tried to entertain my company;
all the time having two distinct trains
of thoughts running through my brain
—oue verbal—the other mental.—
Something like this—“Yes, mam, # I
like this place very well.” What must
I have for dinner? “I hope I can raise
chickens.” I wish I had two dozen
ready cooked. “No, I never milked a
cow iu my life.” Oh! that I had &
whole one barbecued. Thus, for one
mortal hour, I talked to these people
and thought about dinner. After
nine! and presently I must tell the
boys to make a fire and bring water.
I requested my young ladies to amuse
themselves with looking at my few
books and pictures. As for the men—
they sat on the piazza aud amused
(perhaps instructed) each other by
talking “cows.” One girl, who re
joiced in flaming curls, picked up Pe
terson, and turned to a fashion plate,
said, “Why the ladies back j’onder in
Georgy are better looking than any
about here.” This same girl came
with her hose and shoes dangling
gracefully from her left arm, (bad a
creek to cross) aud on her fingers sev
eral rings made ot beads (as she told
me) that were taken from the grin-
uing skeleton of a Seminole chief, dis
intered from a mound where lie has
lain for, perhaps, a thousand moons.—
She and another gill were speaking of
a cousin binder who was coming after
dinner. 1 knew then that they were
going to slay. Some one asked me it
I “could fead?” “Yes, I can read/
answered, and was wondering who in
vented dinners. “Cousin Ander can
read and cipher too.” I was glad
somebody had gone the other side of
baker. Just then that cousin, who
could read, made his “debut.” I took
a good look at him; well bis features
were good enough, but no more
expression in them thau a bowl of
milk, lie looked solemn as a country
church, and as wise as an owl; indeed
think in some pre-existent state he was
an owl or sloth, and remains of his
former nature still linger about him.—
I felt a great desire to ask him his
opinion of Transmigration of souls
but just then Mrs. G. asked it anybody
could tell her the time of day.” There
it is again! She is getting hungry,
and bpieg c!de;t, &ii the qtbess will be
soon, yes, as hungry as hyenas—dear
me—did anybody ever dread preparing
a dinner so? 1 told the old lady that
it was time to think ftbant dinner.—
She began to plu up*ber sleeves, (and
would you have believed it?) four oth
era followed her example. “Show us
where you keep your provisions, and
tell ns What you want cooked; we arc
going to fix up dinner for you.” What
a relief I got out floor, lard and
meat, and looked on in admiration at
the skill and ease they displayed.—
Only one interruption while dinner
was in progress. One little girl, of an
aspiring nature, (blame her not Dar-
told that it waa ready to dish. A huge
venison pie waa placed in ■ the" centre
table: then bread, biscuits, po
tatoes, steaks and coflee kept the ‘pie
iiKcouutenauce. I brought out my
{Old eatables—a fino wild gobbler,
Pflmpkin and potatoe pies. My visi
tors and I, naturally, enjoyed thkt^in
ner: moreover, had a free ccnchrt while
partaking of it Mrs. G. had a dog
prbo rejoiced in the name of Music,
(what a misnomer!) who, being
hungry, made a grab at a marrow
bone that was popping up and down
in a boiliugjgot He went into Oper
ates—’twas melancholy—but no* a
bit musical! Mrs. G. made apology fow it I would have
pulses* as it throbbed?
She loved the show—so did L
She thought this woman's suffrage
movement all redicnlous—with a be
witching little lisp on the last syllable
—I agreed with her.
She thought a woman’s true sphere
was home; my feelings surged up too
strongly for utterance, and I merely
bowed my assented.
Here was a delicious unanimity of
soul—a mute concord of sympathy.
What would Bob Carter say when he
saw this beautiful little robin lured in
to my cage ? now I would lord it
over him. How I would invite him to
happen in any time. How I would
figuratively, of course, hold up Mrs.
Thomas Smith before hisenvyiog eyes.
I uttered an audible chuckle as h
thought of the thing, which I had some
difficulty in changing into a cough.
You’ve got a cold, said the widow,
sympathetically. Do, please have one
of my troches; they are so soothing to
tho throat.
I took the troche, but 1 didn't swa!-

by saying “she brought him because
she knowed that not a single agg
would be left on the hill.” Of course
she knew—uot one on our hill to be
found next day. Well, the longest day
will cud some time, and this first Sab
bath in a strange land was no excep
tion. These settlers, I found, were
kind, hospitable, law-abiding citizens;
and it illiterate were far my superiors
the accomplishments so necessary
m this country, just on the borders

IN AND OUT OF LOVE.
How do I know she was a widow? !
Don’t you give me credit for any
common sense of discrimination at
all?
How do j*ou know that a rose is red?
How do you kuow lobster salad lrom
sardines?
I knew she was a widow from the
very moment I took tho corner scat in
the car, opposite to her little black
bonnet with her fluttering breath of
crape veil, and the Astrakhan muff
that held her two liny black-gloved
hands.
IIow I envied that mull’.
Don’t tell me of your Venus, your
Madonna, and your Mary, Queen of
Scotts—they couldn’t have held a can
dle to this delicious little widow.
I never did believe in grand beau
ties!
A woman has no business overaw
ing and impressing you against your
will.
And she was oue ot your dimpled,
daisy faced creatures, with soft brown
eyes long-lashed and limpid, and a red
mouth, which looked os if it was just
made to be kissed.
And then there was a tangle of gol
den spirals of hair, hanging over her
forehead, and braids upon braids pin
ned under her bonnet, until a hairdres
ser would have gone frantic at the
sight
Just as I was taking an inventory of
these things, in that sort of unobserv
ant way that I flatter myself belongs
to a man of the world, she dropped her
muff, aud of course, it rolled under the
seat.
Wasn’t I down on my knees at once
after it? I rather think so.
Thank you, sir, said the delicious
little widow.
Not at all, I replied. Can I do any
thing more for you?
No, thank you—unless you could tell
tue what time we get into Glendale.
Glendale, 1 cried. Why 1 am going
to Glendale.
Of course we were friends at once,
and the daisy faced enchantress made
room for me beside her, lest, t
said, some horrid, disagreeable
ture should crowd in and beje her to
death and 1 stepped right out of the
musty, ill-ventilated world of the rail
way carriage into* an atmosphere of
Eden.
When a bachelor of forty, falls in
love at first—oh wiiat a fall is there
my couqtrymexj. No half measures,
I tell you.
Before we had been speeding througl;
the wintry landscape an hour, 1 had
already budt up several blocks of cha
teaux d’ Espagne, in my mind.
I saw my bachejor ^qoms brightened
“with her pretence.
I fancied myself walking to church
with her hand on my arm.
1 heard her dulcet voice sajing
My dear Thomas, what would you
like for supper, to-night? I beheld
myself a respectably member of society
—the bead of a family.
What would Bob Carter say now—
1 meant then.
Bob, who was always teasing me on
my hopeless old-bachelor-hood, who
supposed, forsooth, beetle he happen
ed to be a trifle younger and better
looking than myself, that I had oo
chances whatever.
I’d show Bob!
What did wc talk about?
The weather, of course, the scenery,
the prospects —all the available topics,
one after another ; and the more we
talked, the deeper grew my admira
tion.
She was sensible and so original,
and everything else that she ought to
be!
I discovered that the preferred a
town life to the seclusions of a country
residence—eo did L Who would stag
nate when be coaid feel tbe world’*
eaten a
priceless pearl. I put it iu my left-
hand breist pocket, as near my heart
as practicable.
Her first gift I
A bachelor like Ac is used to such
things, 1 said, in an off-hand manner,
A bachelor! echoed my traveling
companion. Bless me then you are
uot married?
Unfortunately, no.
It’s never too late to mend, hazard
ed the widow roguishly.
That is my sole consolation, I an
swered gallantlj*.
There is nothing liko married life,
sighed the widow, with a momentary
eclipse of the limpid, brown orbs, be
neath the whitest of drooping lids.—
But what’s the use of my talking
about it to you? You can’t under
stand .
You can imagine, I replied modest
ly.
You must find a wife ns soon as
possible, said the widow, looking in
tently at the hem of her pocket hand
kerchief. You’re only living half a
life, now. Ah, you can not think how
much happier you would be with some
gentle, clinging being at your side-
sonic congenial soul to mirror your
own.
Instinctively I laid my hand on my
heart.
Do not fancy that I shall lose an in
stant in the search, I said. I have al
ready pictured to myself the pleasures
of a newer existence.
Have you ? The brown eyes shot
an arch, challenging sparkle toward
me. Tell me all about her.
Do you reallv wish to kc<
Of course I do.
I congratulated myself mentally on
the flue progress I was making con
sidering the small practice iu love-
making that I had had. Bob Carter,
lunirclf with all his ready tongue and
good looking face, could not have car
ried on a flirtation more ueatly.
Is she fair or dark ? questioned the
widow, with the prettiest of interest.
Neither about your complexion.
Oh! laughed my ititerlocutor, with
a charming pink suffusion over her
dimples. Is she j*oung ?
Yes, about your age.
Pretty ?
More than pretty, beautiful.
Tbe widow arched her perfectly
cilcd eyebrows. What a devoted
band j’ou will make, aud when are
you to be married?
1 will answer that at some future
day—ahem.
Are vou acquainted with Mr. Car
ter, Mrs. Alvern’s brother? asked the
widow prcsenllj'.
Yes, I answered, with a little grim
ace. A self-conceited, disagreeable
pugpy,
doubtfully.
Of courso, as everybody else. So
will you when you meet him.
Shall 1?
A man who thinks because he has
got a handsome face aud a smooth
tongue, that nobodj* else has any busi
ness in creation.
Dear, dear, twittered my compan
ion; that is very bad, indeed.
Of course, he will j>ay a good deal
of attention to you, if you are to be his
sister’s guest, I pursued; but it won’t
do to encourage him.
No!
By no means. He is a professional
flirt.
Is it possible? lisped the widow.
And I mentally shook hands with
myself for having thus deftly put a
spoke iu Bobs wheel.
First impressions are everything and
I certainly had been beforehand with
the pretty widow. Neither had I any
t ompunction of conscience for hadn’t
Bob been playing practical jokes of all
styles aud complexions on me, ever
