POETIC A L.
MY VANQUISHED PAST.
I will write on the tomb of my vanquished
past.
This is the “nevermore
Here hes the sunshine too bright to lat,
This was the golden shore.
This was the land of the poet's so&g.
This was the artist's dream :
Here were the flowers love dwelt among,
Here was life’s fairest gleam.
This was a heaven come down below,
And in it was left God's smile ;
Yet now must the green grass over it grow,
It lived 6uch a little while—
Such a little while, like an island bright.
That has risen far out at sea.
Which oil some morrow we find the night
Has changed to a memory.
A memory mine, one that sadly thrills ;
And ofttimes I wearily pray
That it may again, it it be God's will,
Come back to my life some day.
But it cannot come. Oh, my dead, dead
past!
You are silent forever and still;
But the sunset glories that fade so fast
Nhall arise o’er the top of the hill.
And I'll touch the stone with a gentle,
hand,
And train o'er it flowers fair :
For I think, when I wake in that other I
laud,
Perhaps you will meet me there.
My Two Pearls,
BY ZULU. O. H. DOEK.
As I stood near one of the great bronze
doors, a lady, veiled, aud gathering the
fold* of her mantle closely about her
throat, passed me with a light step. The
figure was exquisitely graceful, and I
watched her with a young man’s idle cu
riosity as she knelt at her prayers, won
dering if her face was worthy of her
form. As she rose, a fresh breeze from
an opening door blew back her veil, and
I caught a passing glimpse of lior fea
tures.
All the blood in my veins rushed mad
ly to my heart. Surely it was the face
of my dreams—the faeo of my friend’s
Marguerite ! Yet it seemed a younger
face ; perhaps less Mudonua-like than
Urn picture, haloed by cloud-like drape
ry. You see I had not forgotten the
slightest peculiarity of the photograph.
I could have sworn to the very pattern of
the lace.
Before I recovered my senses she had
disappeared.
For three (lays I haunted the Mnde
leue in vain. On the fourth I caught a
glimpse of her again, stooping to drop n
coin in the blind of a pall'd child. But
it was a fete day, and the crowd swayed
in between us. After that i saw her no
more.
I went on to Switzerland, lingering for
a mouth among its mountain passes;
made a short run info ltniy aud came
hack. I was loitering along Los Champs
Elysees one evening in a fit of home
sickness, half inclined to take the next
steamer for Havre, and so end this rov
ing life, when I became aware of being
watched: —watched by a dark figure un
der the shadow of the opposite tree.
Jibe led sun light fell full and strong
.acre i wits standing, hut it was twilight
all about me. I changed my position
hurriedly and hastened on..
But in a moment I heard quick foot
steps behind me then a run and a shout.
Au arm feii across my shoulder, a hand
clasped mine, and a well-remembered
Vu.cc oned :
it is you ! I have found you 1 Ah,
wuu aim ! mou ami 1 But it waa the
paari, even as 1 told you so in that wild
(Jammer. Aud Hippolyte L’Estrange
pointed to the scarf pin I wore that day.
But you are grown older, monsieur, you
are cnaiiged ; and I was not thinking of
you at that moment. But the great
pearl shimmered iu the sunlight, aud it
drew mv eyes to tile face above it.
Said I, Not that it was charmed.
It is needless to speuk of the happi
ness of this reunion, all the greater for
the mood iu which it found me.
I shall not iose sight of you again,
said M. L’Estrange. You will go horn*
with mo to-morrow to Strasbourg, Mar
guerite—you remember—and he smiled
more brightly than before—Marguerite
will be giad to know my friend. Very
often have I talked of our days together.
Marguerite ! Shall I confess that for
one moment I shrank as from a coming
pain, a hidden danger ? Then every in
stinct in my manhood rose in quick re
bellion. My friend’s wife was vestal to
me even in thought; sacred as if shrined
and guarded by inapproachable distances.
I would go with him.
Why had he not written to me ? Sim
ply because he had lost my address—
ouly this and uotiiiug more.
it would take too long to tell our de
lightful journey, and I pass on rapidly
to the hour when the towers of Stras
bourg rose before us, and the lofty spire
of her cathedral pierced the clouds.
My frieud’s chateau was inside the
waits of the city, on rising ground.
See, he said, with a sweep of his hand,
as the carriage rolled slowly along, and
this is not grand, so fresh, as your great
New World ; yet it is a fair picture.
He might well say so. The seven-ga
tea city lay at our feet; the Blue P.liine
■wound along between storied banks ; the
branching 111 glided tiirongh the town,
picturesqe with its many bridges; in
ih* far distance rose the Vosges inoun-
(The Jflrgtip jtlcclsln Jountal
VOL. V.
tains and the Black Forest of Germany.
And now we’ were at the chattean, a
stately pile, ivy-clad seemingly with an
■ eternal youth.
Marguerite, this is the frieud of whom
yon have so often heard me speuk—Ed
ward Rirop, said L’Estrange, as I enter
ed the saloon ail hour after, and a fair,
} sweet, womanly face, the face ol the
; Mudeltdne, looked up from the bit of
; embroidery over which it was bending.
Is she like the picture—my Margue
rite ? asked my host ; but before I could
reply he went on : By that name you
first knew her now. We are to live in
Arcadia for a whole month ; and as is
fitting, we are to be to each other Mar
gueri e aud Edward aud Hippolyte.
' Have not the kind fates proved that we
are akin, as I told you years ago ? Why
else have they brought us together ?
I bowed low over to the lady’s hand ;
but 1 did not call her—Marguerite. Nei
ther did I call her Madame L’Estrnnge.
Some subtle undefined feeling prevented
that; I compromised by not calling her
anything.
. I must not make my story too long.
I You anticipate oil I would say. There
were no other guests at the chateau-
Wo three were ns isolate us Adam and
Eve iu the Garden of Eden. That was
truly ftn enchanted week, iu which we
rode, we rambled, we talked, we read,
we saug—happy dwellers in Arcadia.
Aud then—then I awoke one day to fiml
that there was no safety for me but in
Might. This Marguerite was growing
too dangerously dear. I, who prayed
daily, Let me bo uot led into tempta
tion—what business had 1 there, da.ly
ing with danger ?
1 was not a villain ; I was not an idi
ot ; I had no more oouccit than my fel
lows ; yet, 1 could uot help seeing that
Marguerite's soft brown eyes grew softer
still wiieu they met mine, aud that the
long lashes drooped over them with a
subtle grace when I drew near. 1 dm
uot look for this ; but it was there, aim
I saw it—l must go.
A determination that I made known to
my frieud the next morning.
But you are not going ! he said. It is
too soon. Did I not say you were to
stay a mouth ? We will have mon
guests, if you tire of this dull life ; and
you shall sec the chateau nlive with song
and dance. My old frieud must stay.
No, I answered, your friend must go.
Do uot make it too hard for him to leave
you.
ir looked at me narrowly. I
Hus anything gone wrong ’! be usk.m
in a low tone. Tell me, my friend ! 1
had thought—l had dreamed—ls there
anything amiss with you Marguerite V
He spoke ill Itis own tongue now as lie
always did when any strong emotion
stirred him. I answered in mine, my
cheeks white aud cold, but my eyes
ablaze :
Amiss—anything amiss, M.L’Estrange '<
Do I hear you aright ? You are speaking
of the lady who is your wife, and ot one
who would fain be an honorable man I
Anything amiss, monsieur.
Ho looked at me au instant as if h
thongbt 1 had gone mad. Then it sudde.i
light seemed to break over his face, ami.
to my auger and astonishment, he laugh- j
ed a genuine hearty laugh. But before j
I oould speak his mood changed, and he
caught me impulsively in his arms.
0 my poor boy ! he cried, I see it all
now. And you thought Marguerite was
my wife I But I told you she was not,
when yt n asked me so long ago. Do
you not remember ? I supposed you un
derstood. The woman who should have
been my wife lies in the churcli-yard
yonder. Monsieur ltipon—Marguerite is
my sister!
I covered my face with my bauds. I
oould have sunk into the dust at his feet.
It was all clear to me now—ns clear as
uoonday. Yet, with my preconceived
ideas of their relationship, and in a coun
try with whose domestic life and habits
I was so unfamiliar, I could uot so much
wonder at my mistake. The pathos of
the servants, too, hail helped to mislead
me—aud I had seen uo others.
I dared not look at him. The gentle
dignity of his last words overpowered me
even while, in spite of my confusion and
dismay, my heart was thrilling with a
new-bom hope.
I lifted mine at last to meet his filled
with affable tenderness.
You know my secret, I said. Shall
you take me at my word, my friend—
must I go away ?
Nay, nay, lie whispered. It was for
this that we were thrown together that
October morning. Was it not charmed,
the token I gave you ? Stay now ; and il
you can win her gentle heart, I will give
you yet another pearl—my Marguerite !
Just as long as I live, I mean to re
member in my prayers the gentleman
who missed connection at Syracuse ; for
if it had not been for him, would I have
worn the rare pure pearl that was given
to me two mouths since, by my brother
Hippolyte L’Estrnuge ? Appleton's

How Messages are Sent by the
Ocean Cable.
I He (the ocean telegraph operator) taps
the “key,” as in a land telegraph, ouly
it is a double key. It has two levers and
nobs instead of one. The alphabet used
is substantially like the Morse alplmliet
—that is, the different letters are repre
sented by a comhfli.itioii of dashes and
dots. For instance, suppose you want to
write the word “boy,” it would read like
this : ... . ;B is
one dash aud three dots ; O, three dash
es ; and Y, oue dash, one dot and three
dashes. Now, in the land telegraph the
dashes and dots would appear on the
strip of paper at the other end of the
line, winch is uuwound from a cylinder,
and perforated by a pin at the end of the
bar or armature. H the operator coni*
read by sound, he would dispense with
the strip of paper and read the message
by the “click 'of the armature as it is
pulled down and let go by the electro
magnet.
■ The cable operator, however, has
neither of those abvautages. There is no
paper to perforate, uo “click” of the ar
mature, uo armature to “click.” The
messago is read by means of a moving
flash of light upon a polished scale pro
duced by the “deflection” of a very small
mirror, which is placed within a “mirror
galvanometer,” which is a small brass
cylinder two or three inches iu diameter,
shaped like a spool or bobbin, composed
of several hundred turns of small wire
wound with silk to p. event the roots I
from coming in contact. It is wound or
coiled exactly like anew rope, a small
hole being left in the middle about the
size of a common wood pencil. Iu the
centre of this is suspended a very thin,
delicate mirror, about, ns large as a ker
nel of cum, with a correspondingly small
magnot rigidly attached to tlie back of it.
The whole weighs but a little more than
a grain, mid is suspended by n single
fiber of silk, much smaller than a human
hair, and almost invisible. A narrow
horizontal scale is placed within a dark
ened box two or three feet in front of
the mirror, a narrow slit being cut iu the
centre of the scale to allow a ray of light
to shine upon the mirror from a lamp
placed behind saidVcale, the little mirror
in turn refl otiug the light back upon the
scale. This spot, of light upon the scale
is the index by which all messages are
read. The angle through which the ray
moves is double that, traversed by .the
mirror itself ; aud it is, therefore, really
e piivuleiit to an index four or six feet in
length without weight.
To the. carnal observer t-hore is nothing
hut a thin ray of light, darting to the
right and lett with irregular rapidity;
hnt to the trained, eye of the operator
every flash is replete with intelligence.
Tims the word “boy,” already alluded
to, would be read in this way : One flash
to the right and three to the left is B.
Three flashes to the right is O. One to
the right, one to the left and two more
to the right is Y, aud so on. Long and
constant pro ■ ink -s the operators
wonderful e.. tlr : r profession, and
enables them > , a : lio n the mirror a:.

A GIBL IN THE PULPIT.
Miss Annie Oliver, the girl preacher,
whose sermons have been listened to by
many persons at Sea Cliff and other
places, was born in this city, and is a
graduate of Rutger’s Female College.
She is a slight limit young woman, with
coal black eyes, abundant brown hair,
and very graceful manners. To a report
er who called ou her yesterday she said.
“I preach because 1 love to, aud because
I feel that I have been called to the min
istry. I was reared in the most retired
circles, and never dreamed of public
life when I was a school girl. I loved
art, and began to learn landscape paint
ing iu Cincinnati. When the crusade
against liquor sellers grew strong in Ohio,
I was drawn into it, and I helped
them all that I could in Trumbull coun
ty. Then in Cincinnati. I went with
ladies to the temperance meetings, and,
by talking to little knots of men, I gain
ed confidence enough to address a throng
aud I preached to clusters of the poor el
the city. Then I addressed a throng in
the Exposition building. I made up iny
mind that 1 could uot be contented any
more without active work in the minis
try, and I began to seek a place to study.
Os course I thought that girls had to be
educated, if they became preachers, as
well as boys.. I applied first to the sem
inaries of my owu church, the Congrega
tional, and they refused. Thou I applied
to the Presbyterian Seminaries, aud they
were very dignified and exclusive. I ap
plied to fourteen iu all, and at last found
a university in Boston which accepted
me as a student, Oberlin College, allowed
me to study the languages, and the pro
fessors thought they were doing a great
thing for me and said that no other
church would do so much. I have a
year more to study in Boston, when I
expect to apply to the Methodist for
license to preach.—-V 1. Hun.

A BATH linfc DEAD SEA.
flu
Mr. C. A. KhigiStiv writes as follows,
in the Foiest aud .Ream, of a bath in
the Dead Sea : “.Baching at last, this 1
most o.*l! se:C aud lakes oti
the globe, vte jk'tq :j»<l ffApnke a bath,
and such n bats I bni»ly ever expect
to take again Ilia previously bathed
in other sens, lakes and rivers, but never
! did I enjoy such til bath as this. The
specific gravity oi t h water is such from
i its holding iu solid |i so large a propor
tion of salt(2dl per tent.) that one floats
upon the sea, at A IN a good swimmer
lat once struck at in o deep water.
I soon found t halt oould not ouly swim
and float with v tderful ease, but I
could actually w all jn 'the water, sinking
only to the ariupit i Discovering this
fact, I ik, hr far Is+ slii.r,-, and taking
Dr. C.. one of o.irn ;y, who could not
swim, by the hand; ied him into the sea
I where the water was many fathoms deep.
At first lie was quite reluctant to follow
me but he soon giinjxl confidence on
finding there va.ffthfengi'r of sicking,
and he enjoyed till novel bath as much
as if lie had heJi au expert swimmer.
Should the luithejfaUow the water to get
into his eyes or n&mlli lie would suffer
considerable almtAieilt in bis enjoyment
on account, of iiff ox'rnmely bitter and
irritating nature, jNo fish can live in
this sea at oertaiq scisons of the year.
The water was nsfclt ir us ordinary sea
water, its temperaiu'e was agreeable,
mid has nu oily feeling, and altogether
itri action on the stti'ui.'v of the body was
such as to develop* tin be pleasurable sen
sations perhiiiiingtb the sense of touch,
accompanied by tltjMWJst, delightful ex
hilaration. ui nWftlU' baths in the world

CHIMNEYS.
Chimneys desene a chapter to them
selves, they are so essential and so often
abused. Let, them start from the cellar
bottom and run stmight and smooth to
the very outlet. " If you wish to he
exceptionally catfful and comet, use
round pipe cement nr earthen inclosed

how often destructive fires arc caused by
defective fines, it is surprising that more

SHRINKAGE OF COTTON.
A correspondent of the Arkansas
Grange give* his experience ou the
shrinkage of Colton as follows :
I had a dispute last September with n
Memphis merchant about the loss of
weight on cotton. To test the matter I
ginned a halo ou the loth of October
weighuy-, Vase- mumls. I then put it in a
dry shed nu a plank floor, so situated that
it had sunshine every day that was clear
until December Bth, when it was again
weighed and found to weigh 4 !8 pounds.
1 aud Hires men to see the test. I wish
all my brother planters would make a
test, and see if it brings the same result.
This is the third year I have tried il with
the same results. The average loss on
cotton übipppl to Memphis is about ten
pounds per bale; this, at 15 cents, amounts
to $600,000 on the cotton shipped to tlnu
place. This would pay all our taxes
What Farmers Cannot Conceal.
—A poor farmer cannot conceal the fact
that he is a poor farmer. All his sur
roundings proclaim the verdict against
him—his horses, cattle, wagons, harness,
plows, fences, fields—even Iris wife aud
children bear silent, but unmistakable
evidence against him. On the other
hand, all those things will testify favor
ably iu behalf of tiio good farmer. Ev
erypasser by cau read the evidence, for
and against. This fact alone ought to
stimulate every farmer to do his best,
for the sake of his character Us well as
interest; tov ho may rest assured that
every passer by will pronounce judgment
according to'the evidence,
