WHEN TUP BOATS COME
HOME.
There’s light upon the *ea to-day,
And gladness mi the strain;
Ah, well ye know that hearts aro gay
When sails draw nigh the land:
We followed them with thoughts and
tears,
Fur fai aor< w the foam;
[j e ,,,. it seeius a tlmaeamJ jeers
Uutil tlm boats eouao home!
We tend the children, live our life.
And toil and mend the nets;
£ut is there ever maid or wife
Whose faithful heart forgets? ,
W« kgow that cruel dongere Ho
Beneath that shining foam,
Atp& watch the changes in the sky
Until the boats come home.
There*, glory „ , tho to-day,
on aea
.
The sunset geld is bright;
.Me thought I heard a grandsire suy,
"At eve it shall be light?”
O’er waves of crystal touched with fire,
And flakes of pearly foam,
We gaze and see our heart’s dtw#— .
The boats are coining home.
ELOPED WITH THE WRONG
GIRL.
From Sanford, Dei., Enterprise.
On a little farm nearly in sight of
^ie quiet little town of Federalstmrgh,
Md., resides a blooming young giri of
22summers,also her cousin and her
her father’s ward of two years her seu
ior. Both of these have beaux whom
their stern old father aud uucle do not
approve of. The lover of No. 1 and tois
sweetheart, unbeknown to tlie other
parties, had made ail arrangements
steal off in tlie still of the night and
get married. This was also the plau
of the contracting parties No. 2. The

of the n.gbt, wheu gr aw ,*rd. y..o,
lover No. I placed tbe ladder to tbe
w udow of girl No. 2. The night was
dark just ut that time. She mad* her j
exit out of supposed the window knight, and and into thcj
arms of her was*
hurried off to the carriage ne e by »
N* t a word was spoken as a/otig the
ramparts (tbe old man’s back lane) tbev
hu'ried. Tho carriage was g lined nml
the lash applied to the horses When
they arrived at the nr^aot.iu'a boose,
who was waiting to tie tho knot, the
gdlant knight, then discovered that he
had got the wrong girl. Of coarse teore
was some salts and inward eiuss words
and the tug of war came—how to get
the weeping girl hack undiscovered
Lover No. 2 met with an accident, by
running hi* buggy against a pest and
carrying away his port wheel, and
failed to atrive at the how* that night
