Once, before 1 was aware of it I found myself walking alone though a deep forest near t.lie toot of a high, craggy mountain As I strobed alum i admiring the grandeur of the scenery, 1 I was somewhat startled by the su'.> den a[ pea ranee of a very old m , immediately in f.out of m•, 1 paus i and abruptly, and g zed inten'ly upon } him for some minutes ere 1 spoke, and during toe time of my observation 1 Scanned bis feature minutely. Ilis was a noble form, but very much bent by age. Uis scattered locks were white as snow, mid never in mv life have l seen a forehead indicative of such mental force and vigor ; while Ids eyes, a deep clear gray’ wjs fixed upon 1e with an expres-ion rndinnn ed by age. I"felt that he was leadin’* 1 me through. 11 is face though shrunken wis sur passingly handsome, and upon his finely chiselled lips rested a smile incf- | fabU- sweet, but sad as the echo of a ; funeral knell. In his right hand he ! held a beautiful golden key, and rest ! ing in the hollow of his kit arm was ! a large and eiabo atelv carved staff.— | His thin white hair was the <nlv cov ering for his head, and his garment „was of thick material, and checkered over with white and Ida k, the la'ter greatly predominating: As soon as I had made these ohscr* vat ions • I addressed him respectfully, and lifting my hat made a most pro found Low. Smiling he called my nan e in a rich mellow \ ice, and ask ed me if I Would walk with him a lit tle while.. Ire ponded as politely as 1 was'fdtlc, assuring him that nothing would afford me more pleasure than to form his acquaintance. Not heeding my hint, he'dic] not tell me his name, but-proposed t'l at we should a-cend the mo.'untaim I looked a.t him in sur prise for I knew the m'oifntaia was ex ceedingly difficult of ascent, having been rep atedly foiled in the attempt, and ! could not cone ive how such an old man would wish to attempt such a •thing. 1 ventured to ray as much, but he replied, ‘df you knew my name you would nit wonder,’’ and. turned away I followed, more and more as tonished, for 1 was forced •to run to keep pace with hint, while he seemed L: move along without difficulty. — \\ lion TTA von a. !i ,j# I flio Kocp oir* tlxo tiiouTifain the old man took h:s staff in his r ght hand and offered me Ids left with the mysterious key in’ it [ took the proffered, hand, and we continued forward. In a very short time we had sealed the most impassable looking precipices, threaded apparently t.lie most impenetrable thickets, and had reached the summit, where. I sank down breathless with exertion. My old guide calmly seated himself on a rock beside me, and without seeming at all wearied, took the golden key and fitted it into a lock that I had not discovered in cither end of his staff.— He turned the key when a lid sprung open, and revealed the fact that the staff was also a telescope. 11c then handed me the glass and bade me look 1 d : d. so, and by means of this worn derful instrument I saw a great city, swarming with inhabitants of every tribe and complexion ‘I was also, by some means, endowed with the power of reading the minds of the people. 1 taw and knew exactly what each one was doing. “What do you see,” he asked. I answered. “I sec a num ber of boys at school striving to ac-/ complisii a task.” “V cry much mis taken,’’ said my friend. “No,” said I, “it is so.” He replied “I mean the boys ’’ I went on “I see a bevy of girls in a room learning their lessons.” “Very much mistaken,” said the old man. “I ,see a young man hunting for a wife.” “Very much mistaken.” “I sec a young lady maneuvering for a husband.” “Very much mistaken.’’ “I see*numbers of men and women, young, middle aged and old, seeking wealth and position, but happiness seems lo be their ultimate object.”— “All very much mistaken,’’ broke in the old man emphatically. ‘‘l see a large concourse of people in a church worshipping God “most of whom,” interrupted my friend, “are very much mistaken.” My rapidly increasing astonishment hSd now reached such a pitch that I d r opped the glass, velie mently exclaiming “tell me what you mean, are all men mistaken ?” “Near ly all,’’ coolly replied he. “Perhaps you are mistaken,” observed I. “Irn r possible,” returned the old man, and added “you surely do not know my name.” “No,” I replied, “who are you ?” “Wait,” said he, “1 will first prove that lam right, look again.” 1 took up the glass and saw the same city, but everything in it was changed Nine-tenths of the inhabitants that 1 saw at first had disappeared, and theii places had been filled by otters. I recognized among the fortune, fame hunting mass, some of the boys and TEEMS $4,00 A Year, in Advance girls I bad seen at seho-d The wifi* hunter had married, but ‘his i.ife was ■’ ‘ ’ x^ll > :, u<i hen henpee! and husband. ihe eontriviinr woman hid scared a i J* usband, hue from a flas iu u h< au he I nad become a dissipated profiigat ,• and was now leveling ia a breithek wliiie t..e wile was shiv• • ‘ng over a’ rc hi a scantily furnished rumi, with emaeia-ed cliildren around her cryingfor bread. Some lid acquire i vu’alth and position, many more haT : iai ed. but happin ss was seemingly farther trom them uiw than ever The church e ngrcga'ion had dwins died down to a small remnant. The church book was scarred over with 1 niany erasures, some had dice! iiypo | crits. ‘i he old man laid bis hand on my arm. 1 put and rwn t.lyj glass and he. said, vail mm desire happiness above everything. Their whole* lives arc devoted to that end. Cmtne seek it in ore channel, some in another, hut as a general ru’e all find before they j die they have been very much mista ■ ken, \ou saw the school boys, they ; expec ed to become Vv ebs'fcrs, Ever -1 and Napo’eons, and for what ? j Lecause to be such was tlieir ideal <f happiness ■ but th.c sequel has shown that they were v ery much mistaken.—* Some have obtained wealth and posi tion, but few if any are happy, ‘ihe cm Is i nought they were preparing themselves to be accomplished young ladies, an that in course of time they would many who knows what fortunes, and be happy, i hey were accomplish ed in fashion and other follies, and some have marriid millionaires, but nine out of ten drive failed to find happiness. The wife hunter expec ted ta marry an heiress, beautiful and ace mpli h,d lie was very much mistaken. Jle married an heiress, bathers was the beauty of the tiger; lie is well repaid, for lie sought not love’ and modesty’. The scheming woman was equally mistaken, for sbo looked up n marriage in the samo 1 g’t. Lve on yin novels for her ; she 1 ias made lier couch, let her lie the ret Some from that tumultu ous throng of men have reached posi tions of wealth and fame, but their school boy dreams have not boen’re alizcd. they were very much mistai ken. The gay women of the world have been, as you may read in their sac os. trricvously disappointed ; they too were mistaken. 31 any in that church’ congregation deceived the outside world for a long time, some even deceived themselves, but they could’not deceive tlieir God, they were mistaken there, and*alas how few of them were not mistaken. . In ah the cases you have seen a few have not been disappointed, but nearly ail have been very much mistaken, simply, because they did not pursue • the proper path for the attainment of the des re i goal. That is why I said nearly all the world are mistaken, for even the few who obtain happiness arc generally taken by surprise, and reach even the desired object through a mistake Now would you know my name ? It is Experience, my gai> mentis woven of Joy and Sorrow, the litter predominating in the texture.— This glass is at the same time the staff of Knowledge and the telescipc of” foresight, which assisted us to the top of the mountain of Human Na’ ture, where 1 unlocked it with the key of Observation, and through it you looked upon the city of World.” 1 was overwhelmed with wond ir, and during a moment of stupefied astonish uient the old man vanished in a cloudy and 1 found myself standing upright in my bed. I had been dreaming, but if I am not very much mistaken the world as it is, is a liberal intepre l * tation of my dream, INQ VER’ An Authentic Anecdote. Talleyrand was once in the compa ny of Madame de Stael and another eminent French lady whose name wo do not remember. ‘•You say charming things to both of us,” said Madame de Stael to him, •‘which o’ us do you like best ?” . wilcy statesman artfully re plied that he was delighted with both. “Ah 1 but you prefer one of us,” continued Madame de Stael. “Sup pose wc wore both drowning in tho Seine to-night, which of us would you help first?” . “I would extend my right .hand to Madame dc Stael, and my left to Mad ame yonder ” “Yes ; but suppose only one of us could be saved, which would, you at-, tempt to rescue ?” ■ Talleyrand's diplomacy was pushed to its severest test; but not one - whit discomposed, he returned to Madame . de Stael, and replied : • ‘ • •‘Madame, . you, know so many things,'doubtless know how to swim.” Rev. • J)r.
