Along the silvery summer sea
We saw the white sails drifting,
And sunset glories, silently,
Their golden heights were lifting ;
My love sank low, as sank the glow
Across the shining river,
“ The day may die, but you and I
Will live and love forever.”
Forever and ever,
Where the shadow falletli never ;
The song tnny die, but you and I
Shall live and love forever !
Sweet day that sank in sunset liirlit.
Sweet song that failed for sweetness !
Sweet soul that rose beyond my sight
To breathe in heaven's completeness
The song rings still —I hear it thrill
Across Dcuth’s solemn river :
“ The day may die, but yon and I
Shall live aud love forever.”
Forever and ever.
Where the shadow falletli never;
The song may die, but you and I
Shall live and love'forever.
The Girl of "the Period.
HOW SHE ACTS IN THE HORSE CAR.
She stands upon the curb with a little
springy, up-and-down motion, as if she
had spiral springs in the soles of her gait
ers. As her car approaches she slicks the
point of her colored parasol in the direc
tion of the driver with a small jerk. The
car stops. She gives one or two more lit
tle springy motions before she leaves the
pnvement, and then dances to the car.
As she ascends the step the conductor
seems to consider it absolutely necessary
to her safety to place one of his hands on
the small of her back while be rings the
bell with the other. She enters the car
with the spiral springs still bobbing her
up and down; and, as all the seats are
full, 3he stands holding her hands in front
of her and gazing off into limitless space,
as if the one idea which never enters her
mind, and which never could enter it un
der any possible circumstances, is that
some man will rise and offer her his seat.
But a young man in the corner does rise,
and immediately the fellow next to him
moves quickly into the corner, as if the
performance of that maneuver had formed
the subject of his anxious thought during
many years of his life.
To get a corner seat would seem to be
ihe chief end of man.
When the young mau rises, the young
lady suddenly becomes conscious that
there ia something nearer to her than the
horizon, and she gives two or three more
lithe bounces and says :
‘•Keep your seat 1” The young mau is
•embarrassed, and says he is going to get
-out soon, whereupon the fair being dances
toward the seat, sinks into it, and pretends
that the fact of the existence of any young
man, who once occupied that seal, and
who is going to get out, has entirely faded
out of her consciousness. She smoothes
down her dress and its supplemental frib
bery, flounces and pennants, and again
looks far beyond the confines of the car
into emptiness.
She knows she is expected by the other
women in tire car to remain unconcious of
their presence while they study her
clothes. They immediately begin. They
stare at her dress, her sack, her hat, her
hack hair, her jewelry, her gloves, her
hows and ribbons, her miscellaneous mil
linery, until the entire costume is photo
graphed in their memories, and the price
estimated,-and a critical opinion formed,
with a resolution to hare a bonnet of the
same kind, or a “ body” cut upon the
same pattern.
When the young lady thinks that this
examination is concluded, she becomes
conscious again, aDd begins to look around
and see how the other women are dressed.
, She examines each one in detail, and in a
few moments she is in full possession of
th necessaiy information.
Presently a young mau witli whom she is
acquainted gets into the car, and he stands
clutching the strap and trying in vain to
keep in a graceful attitude while he con
verses with her. All the women begin to
wonder whether she cares particularly for
him—and, as she knows their thoughts,
she is so distant that the young man be
comes more embarrassed than ever, and
makes renewed struggles to maintain a
graceful position. When she wishes to
get out she rises, smoothes down hei fiib
bery again, indulges in two or three spi iugs
and dances along the platform.
The conductor again considers it imper
lively necessary to press the small of her
back. She dances down the steps, dances
to the pavement, and then dances along
the street, fully aware of the fact that the
women in the car Lave all turned round to
look at her, and serenely confident in the
assurance that she has on good clothes,
which fit her splendidly. As she disap
pears the conductor turns to the man w ho
is smoking a cigar on the platform, and re
marks that she is “a crusher.”
HOW THINGS COME HOUND.
Romance is no respecter to color, race,
or previous condition of servitude. Ihe
simple onetlireaded story of “ Enoch Ar
den” is eclipsed by the tangled skein of
romance in lives of Cobb and Hammond,
and Samuels aud their wives and progeny.
The parties are all black people, and some
of them were formerly slaves in the good
old times before the rebellion. Henry
Cobb was the property of a planter
named Cobb, in Louisiana, and Henry
Cobb possessed the affections of his wife,
about all he did possess. In 1859 he was
hired oat by bis master and runjon the riv
er The captain of the boat on which he was
deck hand threatened to have him flogged
one day for some offence, and Henry not
relishing the prospect, hid himself, and
managed to get to Cairo on some
thence by the underground milway he
went North. Since 18(il lie lias lived
near Chatham, Ontario. As it is not good
for mail to be alone, he married a wife.—
His first wife continued in slavery for sev
eral yews, and was living a slave at Holly
Spring. Mo., when the emancipation proc
lamation set her free. She too, went
North, and met a man named Samuels,
and married him, and the couple were
raising a family in Detroit.
The other day Cobb, alias Hammond,
went to Detroit to get a doctor for his
wife, who was very ill. Mrs. Samuels,
formerly Mrs. Cobb, was out that, day for
a walk ; a hand tapped her ou the shoul
der, ami she nearly grew while when she
turned round and saw her old husband.
They sat dawn 011 a bench ami talked and
laughed and cried together, and fiually
they disappeared together, and liav# not
been seen by auy of their acquaintances
since. Samuels heard of the incident, and
does not blame his wile for going off with
Cobb. The best thing he could do would
be to send Mrs. llammond a doctor, aud
go himself aud see how she is getting
along.— St. Louis Republican.

HOW THE FEATHERED SONGSTERS ARK
TAUGHT TO SING THEIR
FESTIVE LAYS.
A FEW REMARKS CONCERNING RIRDS AND
TnEIR TRAINING.
Each kind oi bird sings it own peculiar
note, but all may be taught to sing regular
tunes. The mocking bird and thrush
learn tunes without training. Hut, by a
regular education, other birds may be
come fine performers. A contributor to
the Nursery says :
Last summer I Has at a friend's house
at Nahant. I rose early in the morning
and went down stairs to walk on the
piazza. While there I heard, as I thought,
some person whistling a tune in a very
sweet style. I looked around, but could
sec no one. ’ Where could the sound come
from ? I looked up and saw a little bird
iu a cage. The cage Mas hung in the
midst of flowers and twining plants.
“ Cau it be,” thought I, “that such a
little bird as that has been taught to sing
a regular tune so sweet ?”
I did not know what to make of it.
When my friend came down stairs she
told me that it was the little bird who had
whistled the sweet tune. Then my friend
cried out to the bird, “ Come, Bully, Bull,
sweet little bullfinch, give us one more
tkne. Aud then this dear little bird bop
ped about the cage, looked at its mistress,
and whistled another sweet tune. It was
so strange to hear a bird whistle a regular
tune.
“ Now, Bully,” 6aid my friend, “ you
must give us ‘Yankee Doodle.’ Come,
come, you shall have some nice fresh seed
if you will whistle ‘Yankee Doodle.’” And
the little thing did whistle it, much to my
surprise.
My friend then told me that she brought
the bird from the little town of Fulda, iu
Germany, where there are little schools
for teaching these birds to sing. When a
bull-liuch has learned to sing two or three
tunes, he is worth from S4O to SSO, for he
Will bring that price in France or Eng
land.
Great skill and patience are needed to
teach these birds. Few teachers can have
the time to give to the children under
them so much care as the bird teachers
give to their bird pupils.
The birds are put iuto classes of about
six each, aud kept in a dark room for a
time. Here, when their food is given to
them, they are made to hear music, so
that, when they have eaten their food, or
when they want more food, they will sing
and try to imitate the tune they have just
heard. This tune they probably connect
with the act of feeding. As soon as they
begin to imitate a few notes the light is let
into the room, and this cheers them still
more, aud make them feel as if they would
like to sing. In some of these schools the
birds are allowed neither light or food till
they begin to sing. These are the schools
where the teachers are most strict.
After being thus taught in classes, eacli
hull fiuch is put under the care of a boy,
who plays his organ from morning till
night, while the muster or mistress of the
school goes round to see how tiie pupils
are getting on.
The bull-fiuclics seem to know at once
when they are soolded and when they are
praised by their master or mistress ; and
they like to be petted when they have
done well.
The training goes on for nine months ;
and then the birds have got their educa
tion and sent to England or France, and
sometimes to America, to be sold.
All animals, all birds, and all reptiles—
even fishes—are susceptible of culture and
improvement’. So are plants, roots and
fruits. And above and beyond all are hu
man beings capable-of almost illimitable
developments both of body and mind.
A strange story of crime is told of a
Frenchman who has just been arrested
nnd brought to Parls. Alfred Eripc began
his criminal career by committing for
gery while he was a clerk in the Prefec
ture of the Seine. He fled, but was sen
tenced to the hulks for ten yeais with hard
labor. He stole the certificates of birth
and baptism of an Old school-fellow named
Lemaitre. and enlisted in a husar regi
ment. He deserted aud the real Lemaitre
was arrested. For this crime Kripe was
sentenced to the hulks Air another ten
years. He again managed to elude justice,
and became Professor in a school in the
neighborhood of Paris. In 1863 he went
to Laon and married with the papers aud
under the name of Lenmifre. His wife
died, and in 1868 he married again. Mean
time the real Lemaitre got a place on the
Eastern Railway and met in Fismes the
usurper of his name, who was employed
in a sugar-ware factory. Lemaitre de
nounced him and he was arrested.
MACON, GA., MONDAY, MARCH 10, 1873.
A California widow lately went for a
youth who had wooed aud won her, but

THE PUbMIOI WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
