A Poet’s Dream.
BY SUSANNA t.
My days are such busy days,
I have no time for singing
Half of the chimes and grateful lays
Which in my soul are ringing.
The same old round of work and cares
Awaits each morning’s waking;
r.ach night the same a weary frame,
And sometimes sad heart aching.
But yet thank God that onmypaih
Os quiet household cluty
Has fall’ll a flower of magic power,—
The poet’s rense of beauty ;
And things the woild calls common things
To me have d< ep revealing,
Oft touching springs with their light wings
Os highest, holiest feeling-
A ne*t of dewy primroses,
In their thick leaves reposing*
A white cloud sailing through the pky,—
A daisy’s petals closing ;
The laughter of a happy child,
A greeting from a neighbor.—
All these have brought me stores of thought
Through many an hour of labor.
Sometimes I dream a pleasant dream
'Twill scarcely bear the t iling,—
A mighty wood’s great Solitude,
A lonely rustic dwelling*;
Shut out from all the world's great strife,
Cut off from all things human, —
A mind serene, a holy life, ’ •
A quiet thoughtful woman.
A dream—l know ’tis but a dream,—
But yet as such I prize it;
In troubled days my spirit strays
Years lieuce to realize it.
Oh, selfish pray’r these clouds of care
But make the goal the brighter ;
When God sees fit to order it,
Mj load will be the lighter.

How AK EDUCATED DARKEY WHO WRITES HIS NAME
IN THE MTPDI.K IS RECEIVED.
Major T Morris Chester, a colored member of
the Loudon bar; delivered a lecture last evening
in the Olivet Baptist Church, on Fourth Avenue.
It was entitled ‘‘An Evening with Royalty,” and
vas listened to very attentively by a small but ap
pieciative audienco. He commenced by referrii g
to the exceptional circumstances under which
colored men have been brought out in this coun
try. Sortie of the colored people had advanced
gradually, and done a great deal of good. Others
°I them had received distinctions abroad which
e intended as a recognition of the manhood
oJ then raoo. Under ordinary oirounnstonccs it
"V>ald ho vanity to give publicity to them ; but,
®s they had been governed by exceptional consid
fnitions, ho asked to be pardoned for anyostenta
t: u or pride that he might manifest. He then
fh*ve a description of a vi.-it to the courts of Eu
rope. He had an interview with the Russian Em
peror at St Petersburg, and was received by the
Grand Duke Constantine, who expressed the war
mest interest in the colored people of this country,
(specially iu the cause of freedmen. He was al-o
received by the Iviug of Denmark, and at the
Swedish .Court. In the winter of 1868 he was in
vited to a grand reception at Dresden, and was
presented to the King and Yhe crown princes?.
There were about a thousand persons present, fifty
of them being Americans. He was approached by
*ll, and his intercourse with them was very pleas
ant and agreeable.
1 he colored man was received at these cou its the
same as anvbody else. He was present at one of
Queen Victoria's levees. Nothing was said et the
English regal levees, the gatherings being very
formal and stiff. In conclusion he urged the col
ored people to educate themselves, as it was only
through education that they could break down ex
irtu g prejudices and open the avenues of advance
ment and secure the opportunities enjoyed by
others. When they were educated they could at
tain distinction, and not before. In the courts of
Earop© no white man can expect pieferences be
c* lse he was white, nor could a black man be

Summer Hours.

"Welcome golden summer hour*,
Tinting, robing, snmmer’* scene :
Wreathing garlands, bringing flowers,
Music laden like a dream ;
!*f fence Tieath the starlight broken
By the balmy Southern gale,
Where ihe lute, some lover's token,
Sweetly bieathes his earnest tale.
E’fmm°r sleeping
Lies the lake, while Phoebus’ beam
Peeking down through vim-let* rreeping,
Lights the babbling woodland stream :
W here tho fountain silver gleaming
Murmurs soft at rosy dawn,
Sweetest song is fairy streaming
I ill the summer lights are gone.
Bummer hours, parsing, fleeting,
Treasures of the twelvemonths care,
Crimson liuhts viDj shadows meeting,
Ceres crowned with offerings rare :
While at dawn Aurora s fingers
Rosy paint bright summer’s reign,
And at eve fair Hesper lingers
With her pgt rless jewelled train.
Summer hours, dreamy, beaming ;
Luna lights the azure far
W r here the vesper shadows streaming
Set with many a jewelled star,
"fyhile ’mid copse and trellised bower*
Birds with fairy note and song,
"Warble through the silent hours
‘ Summer hours, linger long.”
Rules fob Table Etiquette. —Do notcommence
eating before y<-ur hosjt gets through with hie
graco. I have known men to bite a biscuit as large
as a blacking box into a half moon, and have to hold
it between their teeth, tinder a suspension of rules
during the blessing. This is disgi aeeful.
2- Don’t sup soup with a fork. Your soup will
have you at disadvantage with such odds. Besides
it is souperfluouh.
8. In passing your plate to be re-helped; retain
your knife in your vest pocket.
4. When asked for a dish, do not propel it along
the surface of the tffble atter the manner of the
gams of sliovel-board, but pitch it gracefully, after
the manner of quoits, This is quoit sufficient.
5. Never try to eat fish wi h a salt cellar.
6. While drink ; ng be careful not to empty hot
coffee or anything of that sort into you t neigh
bor's paper collar.
7 Do not eat too fast. frou will not got left, if
you make up in heroic deses for lost time
8 If you find anything suspicious in your
don’t eat any more hash, and if there is anything
wrong in your butter, propose a toast or tell an
anecdote.
9. When you burn your mouth with cold potato’
dont whistle or make faces at the company, hut
Shed tears in silence.
10. Never leave the table without asking the
lady of the house to be excused ; but if you hap
pen to be at a barbacue or u free lunch, dont leave
it as long as there is a bone or a crumb in sight.
If you will studiously observe these rules and
don’t appropriate the table napkin under the con

Livlkci in the Past. —For Mr. Stephens’ culture,
ability and intentions we have very great respect.
But his point of observation is bad. He dwells in a

that fresh and generous vitality which isbeginning
toponr its rich blood into the politics of the period.
Mr. Stephens' salutation reads neatly and drearily,
it carries us back not forward, and “forward” is
the word for this young South, which wants to get
away from the war. which wants to get away frofn

to unite itself to anew line, which wants to cut

Love s Sacrifice.
Some years ago a Russian nobleman was
traveling on special business iu the infe
rior of Russia. It was the begiti9rffg~ of
winter but the trust had set in elily. His
carriage rolled up to an inn, and ho deman
ded a relay of horses to carry him on to
the next station, where he intended to pass
the n : gl)t. The iu keeper entreated him
not to proceed, for he said there was danger
in traveling so late—the wolves were out.
Bat the nobleman thought the man merely
wanted to keep him as his giiest. ; he 6aid
it was too early for wolves; and ordered
the horse3 to be put to the carriage.. He
then drove off, when his wife and bis only
daughter inside the carriage with him. On
the box of the carriage was a serf who had
been born on the nobleman's estate, to whom
he was much attached, and who loved his
♦
master as he loved his own life. They
rolled over the hardened snow and there
Seemed no sign of danger. The moon shed
her pale light and brought out into bur
nished silver the road on which they were
going. At length the iittle girl said to her
father :
‘What was that strange, howling noise
that I just ho -i ,j ?•
‘Oli, nothing but the wind sighing
through the forest trees, 1 the father replied.
The child shut her eyes and was quiet.
But soon she said again :
'Listen, -father ; it is not like the wind, I
tliiuk.
The father listened, and far, far away,
in the distance behind him, through the
clear; cold, frost air, heard a noise which
he too well knew the meaning of. He then
put down the window and spoke to the
servant.
‘The* wolves; I fear, are after us; make
hat.se. Tell the man to drive faster, and get
yoiir pistols ready.*
The postillion drove faster. But the
same mourful sounds which the child had
heard approached nearer and nearer. It
whs clear that a pack of wolves had scents
ed them out. The nobleman tried to calm
the fears of his wife and child, At last the
baying of the pack was distinctly heard.
So he said to the servant :
‘When they come up with Us do you
single out one and fire, and I will single out
another, and while the re'st are devouring
them we shall get on.*
As soon as bn put down the window he
saw the pack in fuH cry behind, the large
dog-wolf at their head. Two shots were
fired, and two of the wolves fell. The oth
ers instantly set upon and devoured them,
and meanwhile the carnage gained ground
But the taste of blood only made them
more furious, and they were soort up {with
the carriage again. Again two shots were
fired and two fell and were devoured. But
the carriage was soon overtaken, and the
post-house was yet far distant. The noble
man then ordered the postillion to loose
one of his leaders, that they might gain a
little time, This was done, and the poor
horse plunged frantically into the forest
and the wolves after him, and was soon
torn to pieces. Then| another horse was
sent off and shared the same jfate. The
carriage labored on as fast as it could with
the two remaining horses, but the post
house was still distant. At length the ser
vant said to the master :
‘I have served you ever since I was a
child pi love you as well as my own life.
Nothing can save you but one thing. Let
me save you. I ask you only to look after
my wife and little ones.*
The nobleman remonstrated, but in vain.
When the wolves next came up, the faith
ful fellow threw himself among them. The
panting horses galloped on with the Car
riage, and the gale ß of the pust-house just
closed iu Upon it as the fearful pack were
on the point of making the last fatal at<*
tack. But the travelers were safe
The next rooming they went out and saw
the place where she faithful servant had
been palled down by the wolves. Bis bones
only were mere, and on the spot the noble
man erected a pillar, on which is written,
‘Greater love hath no man than this, that a
man may lay down bis life for a friend. 4
‘But God commendetb his love toward os,
iu that while we were yet sinners, Chiist
died for us.’
Wh a* are yon disturbing the whole
house with your yells for ? demanded New
Jersey landlord of a guest whom be found
late at night seemingly in pursuit of in
visible foes, and yelling at the top of his
voice. ‘I am snooting the battle cry of
fleadora* as he went ahead with his search
and his yells.

A FABLE.
A little white rose bloomed all by her
self in a nook in tke hedge.
‘Ah !‘ cried the wind in passing, what a
pity you should be suffocated there 1 I wjll
blow a hole in the hedge, and the breeze
shall find you through it.
T pray sir you will leave me as I aril, I
breathe well enough, 4 said the rose.
‘I know better, 1 said the wind, an 1 rent
the hedge as he passed on, and the boys
rushed through aud made her tremble with
fear.
‘You are not well placed there, 4 he said
aft he <|ame by again ; ‘l'll give you a bet
ter berth than that.'
‘I beg yon leave me as I am, I like my
place well (•hough if it were not for the gap
yon made, 4 said the rt)se.
But the wind would not listen ; he broke
her stem and she fell to the ground.
‘Oh you musu’t lie there,* he Cried ; 'l’ll
carry you to-tlie spot that will suit yoil ex
actly.'
‘Nay. t entreat thee to let me lie and fade
in this pleasant grass/ said the rose bes
Becchiugly ; but he caught her up and
whriled her on a few yards when petals
were scattered and her leafless stem was
cast on the hedge.
‘Hi>w is this J exclaimed the wind.
‘How is it ? this is how it is/ replied the
hedge ; ‘there are some folks that are
never satisfied but when they are meddling
in other folks's affairs , they think nobody
can be happy except in their way ; and
you are one of them, and this bare stem is
a specimen of your woik.'

She drew her petals free—

Toward the unknown sea.

Two Scenes. —A gtfillernan took his son
to a drunken row in a tavern, where the
inmates were fighting and swearing, and
he said, know what has caused all
this?'
'No, fiir.'
His father, pointing to the decanters
sparkling with rum, said, ‘That's the cause;
will you take a drink?'
The boy started back with horror and
exclaimed,. ‘No'
Then lie took the child to the cage of a
man with delirium tremens. The boy
gazed upon him affrighted as the drunkard
, raved and tore aud, thinking the demons
were after him, cried, ‘Leave mo alone!
leave me alonei I see ‘erfij They're coming.
‘Do you ltuow the cause of this my boy?'
'No, sir.'
'This is caused by drink—will you have
some?* and he shrunk back as he refused
the cup,
Next they called at the miserable hovel
of a drunkard, where these was squalid
poverty, and the drunken father .beating
his wife aud with oaths knocking down
the children.
'What has caused this?' said the father.
When told that it was rum, he declared he
would never touch a drop in his life.
But suppose that lad should bo invited
to a wedding feast where with fruit and
cake the cup is passed amid scenest of
cheerfulness and gayety; where all the
friends are respectable, beloved and he
should be asked to drink, would he refuse?
Or suppose him walking out with his fa*
ther on New Year's day to call upon* his
young lady friends to enjoy the festivity
of ushering in the New Year—With other
things, wine is handed to him by a smiL
ing girl. His noble hearted father whom
he loves, presses the wine-glass to his lips,
and compliments the young lady the ex
cellence of its quality; what wouder if
the son follow his example?
