A Strange Dream.
A writer in the St. Louis Republican

scendant of the Duke of Hamilton’s
family, had an intimate friend, a cous¬
in, named Allentou, whose death solely
afflicted him. In his old age, being
feeble in health, Westburn had acquir¬
ed the habit of seeking an hour’s repose
alter dinner, his wife, sitting
at iiis bedside, talked or read to him
until he fell asleep. One day he slept
longer and more soundly than usual,
and when lie opened his eyes declared
that he had been waked by the noise of
a bud flapping its wings. he, *‘in
“I was walking,” says I have gar¬
dens more beautiful than any
yet seen. 1 was so struck witli their
extraordinary extent, their picturesque
beauty, the rare perfume and rich col¬
ors of the flowers around me, that I
said to myself, “This must be Para¬
dise ! These are the Lord’s gardens !”
•• Scarcely had I uttered this when a
handsome young man, whose face was
radiaut witn celestial purity, approach¬
ed me, and with a sweet smile, calling
me familiarly by name, bade me a cor¬
dial welcome in that happy country. I
expressed my surprise at being thus
warmly greeted l y a stranger, and 1
added :
44 4 Still, there is something in your
face that is familiar to mo.’
‘•What!’ cried the handsome stran¬
ger do you not remember our old-time
intimacy V You are a near relation—a
dear friend.’
"Seeing that I regarded him with
incredulity, lie continued :
•‘ ‘Is it possible that you have forgot
teu me ? Can it be with you s it is
witli so many others—far from sight,
far from heart and memory ? Do you
recognize your cousin. Steward Allen
ton ?’
“ -Impossible,’ sain I; ‘my dear
friend Allenton was old, and not at all
handsome, whilst you are the bandsom
est young man I ever met. ’
“ ‘It is the same,’ replied he, ‘with
all who come here. They become young
and handsome. Here there is neither
age nor ugliness. I am none other
than id your old fiiend and cousro, Allen
,» tweet,-lour hour, joe will
be here with me, as young and hand
some as I am.’
“Just then I heard the loud flapping
of a bird’s wings and aWoke.”
The next morning the old man was
gone to meet his friei.d in the
gardens.
