/*:• A HARD PARTING—RUT WJIYt Cone on! in the garden and walk with mo, While the dancers whirl to that dreamy tunc, dee J the moonlight silvers the sleeping sea, And the world is fair as a night in Juno, tat me hold yonr hand as I used to do; This is the last, last time, you know, For to-morrow a wooer comes to woo And to win yon, though I love you so. You are pale—or is it tlio moonlight's ulcam That gives to your face (list sorrowful hsik ? We most wato at last from our summers tin am, We have come to the end of our tender hook tave, the poet, hss written well; He has won onr lit art* hy Ids | »*om sweet; And now, at the end, we must say fine well — Ail, but tho summer was fair and licet. L'o you rcmeml.'er tho night we mot t You wore a r* ro in your yellow hair, Ufcwing my eyes i can h< o you yet, Just as you stood on the uptuost stair. A flutter of white from ho*id to fort, A cluster of buds « u y< ur hi east. Ah me ! Out tho vision was never half so sweet As it ie to-night in my memory. Hear the viols cry, an-l the du p bassoon Reims sobbing out in its undertone, Some sorrowful memory. The tune le the saddest one I have ever known; Or ieit bccHiiso we must part to-night That the music set ins sad V Ah me ! You are. weeping; Love, and your lips are white— The waye of lifo are a mystery. I love you, Love, with a love so true That in coining years I shall not forget Tho Wiantiful face mid the dioam I knew, And memory a.ways will hold regret; I shall stand by the seas as we stand to*night Aud think of the atnnnier whose blossoms died, When the frosts of fate fell chill and white On tlie fairest flower of the summer tide. Thoy are calling you. Must I let you go? Must I say good-by, and ga my way? If wo must part, it is hotteroo— flood-by'a such n sorrowful word to say ! Give me, my darling, one last sweet kiss— 80 we kiss our dear ones, and see them die, Hut death holds no parting no sad as this; God Ideas you, unfl keep ypu—and so— good-by J . -Haiokvye. *;-ip TltlUMHIi OF LOVK.

"Artlinr I” she said, in a tone of voioo . which lio know hmv to interpret, Arthur s face grow clouded. “But yon ouniiot fear for mo," lio said, witli half offended pride. “I muat fear for you, Arthur, if you Imgin in this way. And I fear for others besides—for the Hons mid hiiHhandH and lathers who may learn at our ohoorful Ixiard to lore the poison that aliail slay them.” Tliey went up tho ataira again and. ant od tlie sofa in tho dining-room for a few monvnls, while lCaty put on her hat and' drew on her gloves. Tlie argument was kept up. It is unnecessary that wo should repeat all that Was said on iroth Bides. It ended at last as similar discussions have ended Is'fore. Neither was willing to yk'ld— Knty, Iioohiiho she felt that her whole fuiure.happiness might lie involved in it; Arthur, bedtime he thought it would he giving way to a woman's wlimia, and would sacrifice too tnuoh of ltis popular ity with ltis friends. He had bought thin house, paid for it mnl inrutshed it linmlHomely, and iu a few weeks was to bring Kuty ns its mis tress. All (lie afternoon they hud been looking ovor it together, happy as two birds with a new Uimbed neat. But when Arthur closed the door aud put the key iu his pocket, in the ohill, wan ing light of tlie Dcoomber afternoon, and gave Katy his arnt to see her home, it was all “ broken up” between them, anil a notice “ To Jut ” was put over tlie door of the pretty lionae the very next morning. ft was tho most foolish thing to do ; hut (hen lovers can always (hid some thing to quarrel about, Tliey parted with a cool " flood even ing." Site went up loiter room to cry; he went homo hint and angry, Iml hi oretolv rPHolviug to see her again and give her a cltaueo to kh.v sh, was in the wrong. But the ih.iiieo never came. When ho eallrnl again she had lei t the town, and ho Could liud no trace of her. All this happened more than a year before I saw Kuty; lint we three "fae lory gtrta," who judged at Mrs. Howell's with her, of course, Tti o r nothing alum: it. Bite came to the factory and applied lor work. Tho superintendent thought her too delicate for such labor, but she !>ersisted; and in (not, she improved in Itealth, spirits and looks after she bo urne used to the work aud simple fare of the factory girls. Bbe was a stranger to us all, and it seemed likely that she would remain so. But one day Mary Baseom's dross caught iu a part of the mnohiuery, and In f ire inly ouo else could think what to do, Ifaty hail sprung to iter side and pulled her away by main strength from the ter- lilde danger that threatened her. After that Mary and Lizzie l’ayue aud I were Katy’s sworn allirs. Wo all lodged together in the trig ‘.‘Factory Boarding House." But Katy look it iuto her head that we should huve so much nicer times in a private lodging to ourselves, aud when site took any thing into her head she generally earned it through. In less than a week sliehnil found tho very place she wanted, ar ranged matters with the su|teriiitcndcut and had us sheltered under Mrs. How- oil's vine nnd tig-tree. Wo four girla were tho proud possessors of a tolerably largo double-bedded apartment with a queer little dressing-room attached-— "nnd tlie liberty of the parlor to receive callers in”—a proviso nt witioli wo ail laughed. This was “homo" to ns aftor tho labor of tite day. Indeed and in truth Katy made tho place ao charming that we for got wo were ‘'factory gills” when wn got to it, Hho improvised cunning little things out of trifles Hint are usually (brown away ns useless, and the flowers growing in broken pots iu onr w indows were a glory to bole'l l Hho always hud a fresli book or iieriialical on tho table, and, belter than Ibis, slur brought to us the larger OHltivntiou and the purer taste which taught us how to use opportuni ties within onr reach. "Wind mnd» you lake to onr style of life, Katy ?" asked Lizzie one evening as wo sat in tho east window watching tlie nutcoming of the stars and telling girlish dreams. "Destiny, my child," answered Katy, stooping to replace the little hoot alio had thrown off to ro l her foot. “But you might have been an author ess, or a painter, or a—a bookkeeper, or—" Lizzio's knowledge of tho world Wua rather limited; Kaly broke in upon her: "There, Hint will do. I was not born n genius, and I bate ill'lllimclio,' "But you did not always have to work for a living V" said Mary. Kaly liiugbod a queer, short laugh. "Yes," she said, “aud that’s why I don't know how to g t my living in any way hut this. Ho behold me a healthy and lionist factory gill I" •Hho roso, made a little bow nnd n flourish with in r small hands, nnd we all laughed, although she said nothing funny. “Millv,” said sho, "please light tho lamp and get the magazine, while I hunt up rn.y thimble and thread. Ladies, I Hud myself under the necessity of mend ing my gloves tills evening. Oh, Pov erty ! where is thy sling? In a shabby glove, I do believe, fur nothing hurts me like that, unless it ho n decaying boot.” Hho sat and patiently mended (lie little rents, while ( read aloud; nnd when sho had finished the gloves looked almost liew. Tho next day was Hal 11 rday and we had a half-holiday. Katy and I went to make some trifling purohnsns and on our way bourn stopped nt tliv big boarding, house to see one of the girls wlto was ill. When wo eamo out Katy ran aeross the street to gut a magazine from the news stand aud oamo hurrying up to overtake mo before l tuned the corner. She had the magazine open and one of her hands was ungloved; but it was not until wo readied home Ili • t she Muni she had lost a glove. It was bio lain ; then to go and look for it. Wo wont and senrehed thu next morning, but could not liud it. Kaly mourned for it. "It was uiy only pair, girls,” said she, tragically; “and 11 is a loss that can not he repaired.” ' What people call a "panic'' lmd oc curred iu flnnnoinl circles in the spring after Arthur Oraig lmd lost his Katy, and almost without a day's warning lie h'ltml himself a poor man. lie h ft his affairs in the hands of his creditors -having satisfied himself that they could gal Iter enough from tho wreck to saves them selves. He had lieou educated for a physician, though fortune made amorohnnt'i.l him. Learning from a friend that there was an opening for 11 doctor in Fenwick, ho name hero and began practice. Dr. Bwell lmdgouo off on a visit, leav ing his putionls in charge of tlie new doctor, aud so it c min about tlml on that Saturday evening liu was on his way to visit Maggie Lloyd, tho siok gill at' Iho lodging house, when, just after turning tlie corner near tlie news shop, lie saw a brown glove lying on the pavement. Ho was about to pass it by, but a man's in stinct to pick up anything of value that Beenis to have no owner made him put it in his pocket. Ho forgot all about it the next minute. But when lie liud made ins eail and returned to his consulting-room, in tak ing a paper from his pocket, iho glove fell out, ami he picki d it up and looked at it witii idle curiosity. It was old, but well prosorvoil It had lioon mended often, hut so neatly as to maku him regard mending as one of tlie flue arts. It had a strangely familiar look to him. Lillie ami brown and shapely it lay on his knee, bearing tho form of tiie hand flint lmd worn it. Ab he gnzed at it there came to him tho memory of uu hour, many mouths past, wlieu ho had sat by Killy's side o , the green sofa in tlie dining-room el "their house" (alas) and watched In r put her small hands iuto a pair of bruivu gloves so much like tins one. Ever since that uevor-to-bc-forgotteu day the vision of ids lost love, silling there iu tho fading light, slowly draw ing on tier glove, her sweet eyes Ailing os tliey bilked—quarrelled wo should say, perhaps—had gene with him as an abiding memory of her, until he lmd come to know each shade of iho picture — the color ol the dress, tlie ribbon at Hie throat and iho shaded plume iu her hat. Ho looked at tlie glove a long time. He hud thought it lmd belonged to one of tho foolery girls, and he found it near tho lodging house. Hut it dal not look like a “factory hand's” glove. Hu would ask Maggie Lloyd, al any rate; so lie put it carefully 111 bis pocket until lie should make his calls tlie next morning. lio hod suffered tlie glovo to lie so as sociated with Iho memory of 11 past that was sacred lo him that lie felt his oheek burn and liis hand tremble us lie drew it forth to show it lo Maggie, who was sitting, iu the comfort of convrdesceuue, iu an arm chair by the window, watch ing tlie handsome young doctor write the prescription for licr benefit. “By tlie way, Miss Maggie, do you know whose glove this is?" Maggie knew it at oneo. It was Miss Gardiuer’s glovo. “Miss Gardiner I” The name made his heart beat again. “Is she one of the faotory hands?” “Yes; but she ledges with Mrs. How ell quite ollt of (own, almost; sho Wile here lo see me yesterday.” "Oh, I see I” said ho, not tho most relevantly. "And you can tell me how to fliul Mrs. Howell’s house? I suppose I could go by and restore this glovo to its owner.” Maggie thought this unnecessary trouble, but she gave the required direc tion and ho went out, saying to himself, "It eno’t be my Katy, of course, lint the glove shall go back to its owner.” ******* Mary and Lizzie went to cliuroh that Sunday morning. Katy declared sin eon Id n’t go, having but one glove, i stayed at home with her, and offered to keep Mrs. Howell's children for her, and so persuaded that worthy woman to at tend worship witli tlm girls. Aud Ibis is how it came about, Hint while wo were having u frolic on the car pet with tlie children in Vi-b, Howell’s room, we heard a ring nt Iho door, and Bridget having taken herself off some where, there was no help for it but for 01 o of iih to uuswoi tlie summons. "You go, -Katy," whispered I, in dis may. "I cannot appear.” Katy glanced si rem-ly at her own frizzy head in tlie looking-glass, gave a pull to her overskirt and a touch to her collar, and opened tlm door, Iinmedinte'y nftcrwnrd I was shocked by hearing her utlor a genuine feminine scream and seeing her drop to tlio floor, nnd that a limn, a perfect stranger to me, gut tiered In r up in lis arms nnd be gun raving over her in a manner that as tonished me. He ealie her ids “dar ling” and his “own Kaly," nnd nelunlly kissed her before 1 could reneli her. I was surprised nt myself nfterward that t hadn't ordered the gentleman out, hut it never occurred to me nt tho time; nnd when Knty "came to” nnd sat ii[>on tlio sofa aud hoard his speeches, she seemed so much pleased that I left them and look tlio children up to mir room, feeling bewildered all over. What shall I say further? Only that Knly lives in tlio pretty Iioiiho in the town known ns Dr. Craig’s residence, where wo tlirco " factory girls" have a liorao whenever we want it. And there are no liquors found on her side board nor at her table. One day I heard Arthur say; “Yon were a Silly child, Kate, to run away from me. I should Imvo given up tho point nt inat, I know."

Could Not Expect ller To, Two ladies entered a Fort street ear one day recently anil took senls beside a lady well known to one of them. She gave tier friend nn introduction, and directly lids one remarked; “l think I saw you at file ——'■ Street Church one Sunday, sovornl weeks ago." “Yes," "You seemed to bo as much disgusted with the si mum as I was, for I snw you were terribly ni'ioasy.” “Yes, ’ again. “Did you over hear a worse preacher in ail your life?" " Wefl, perhaps." “ J never did, and 1 haven’t boon there since. ” The conv ; ail ion then rattled off on some other subject, aud by aud by tlie two Indies gol off. “I wonder why slio didn’t agree with mo about that preacher?” queried tile one who lmd blasted him. “Wliy, how could you expect her to?

Tlie curfew is commonly snid to have been introduced in England by 'Wi liam, I110 Conqueror. By Unit moir.j'jh it was ordained, under severe lAiulties, that win n tho curfew bell rang at eight o'clock in lire evening nil lighij and fires should lie extinguished. There are those who lurid that tills was merely the enfoie'ng of an existing and very com mon piilioe regulation to that effect. The nl'M lnt ' prohibition of lights after lire ringing ol tlie curfew bell was abol ished 1 y [fen y f. in the year 1100, but the prneliec of tolling a bi ll at a fixed hour in tlie evening was continued, and ibis, which is still oxtail* in some places, is the survival of the curfew.of medimvnl times. At lir.it the common hour was seven o’clock, then it was gradually ad vanced to eight, nnd in some places to nine o’clock; indeed, iu Scotland, ten o’clock was not nn unusual hour. The curfew was n regulation most useful in those enrlv days, when it was the cus tom to place tlie fire in a hole iu tlie middle of the floor under iui opening in fhe roof, to allow tho escape of die ■moke. When the family retired for dm night the tiro was extinguished by lovering it up; hence the term convre- eu, or curfew, Tlie regulation was also tcrvicenblo in obliging tho people to keep ill their houses, and thus prevent ing night brawls in tlie Btreets. It is bi-lieved t lint there is no histories authority for the popular tradition tlini tire severity exhibited by the Conqueror iu enforcing obedience to the curfew was more particularly designed to prevu it the English from assembling in sic it to plan schemes of rebellion against their Norman lords.
