Death.
It is said tbnt daring the last moments of
th*' Countess de Rouen, a friend who haft
not heard of her illntss called to see her
The characteristic politeness ol the countess
did notTorsnke her nt thispxfrrme mon)ent.

that her mistress presented her regrets, and
begged to be excused, as she was engaged in
w** JFZ
A kindred ca«e is sntd fo have actually
happened some years since in Ohio, on the
“V\U*lern Reserve.” Mr. Ii ,an exqui<itely
<jivil gentleman, hud been rapidly failing
with consumption, hot stilt Insisted npon
teeing his friends. One of his old comrades
found him one day cheerful, though the lamp
of lile was evidently flickering in the socket.
The conversation was checked by the failure
of the sick man to reply, and the caller no
ticed that he was trying witli feeble ha ids
to keep hie ryclnle from dropping. (Suddenly
be sAid softly : “Excuse me a mement,” and
turned over and died The ruling passion
which is suid to be strong in death, and
which, in these instances scents to be. ex
oessive civility, evidently banished all fear of
dissolution at the supreme moment, thoogh
that it existed hefore. and, perhaps, in un
intense degree, is entirely probable.
The fact is that the great dread of death,
as well as the violent 6uflering‘ which pre
cedes, occurs in most cases some time prior
to final dissolution, and observation leads us
to conclude that what is termed, with an
emphasis implying the most terrible torture,
the “last Struggle,” is, in lact, painless, and
that cessation from mortal anguish is its al
most eerlain forerunner. As we are uncon
scious ol falling asleep, so we are unconscious
o[ the mement of dying. Outward signs and
accurate diagnoses tells us this; but still the
average mb d holds to tradition, and believes
most implicitly that which is most imbued
with superstition.
A writer. whose avocation lias call'd him
fi many dying bedsides, uud who has wit
nessed the last momenta of young and old,
ignorant and wise, testifies that as n rule all
ol them pas? away, il no! without regret, nt
hast with entire resignat on. None of them
*'iowed dread of the future. Some were
troubled, perhaps distressed, when they first
thought they could not recover, but the
nearer the end came the lees apprehensive
and calmer they grew. If encouraged to
think they might get well, or, if they had n
favorable turn, the old anxiety, with some
thing ol the former upprebeußions, reappear
ed ; but this proved that their mental dis
quietude was born of their expectation of
life, and not of their fear of death.
We may OGnclude, therefore, that the fear
or dread of death is a sentiment which is
strongest in robust life, and by a merciful
provision o! natuie grows fainter as vitality
wanes and the suprt me hour approaches
A writer in the Cornhtll Magazine thinks
that we add a strange bitterness to ileath by
tbe reluctance with which we spuik quietly
and freely of our own prospects of mortality.
Tenderness and custom combine to seal our
lips*, and there grows up a habit of reserve
which we dishka to break through 'I his
habitual silence adds to the sense of mystety
and rhilfiness, which it would be surely wiser
than to increase. With those ac
mily il, however, frankness in thia regard,
particularly if uninvitt d upon their part, is
oltlmes to be avoided.
Physicians and nurses have strange stories
to tell el eases in which a strong motive of
living has set mid .-nfficiint to tecali patients
from the very grasp of diath Sometimes
tbe mere bS»urui c , given iD a confident
manner but a doubting heart, that recovery
is pi ssible, set ms to give strength to rally
and may turn tbe scab in favor nf lift For
this reason, among others, medical men are
generally unwilling to tell patients that there
is no hope. There are cases on record in
which melt sd announcement, though volun
tarily elicited aid met with perlect appar
ent ealtumes, has seemed to aup tbe stiength
in a moment and cause a sudaeu and rapid
sinking. With some, however, entire frank
ness is not otdy allowable bat advisable
••Tbtre would seem to lie also a reul differ
ence ol leeiiog between rich amt uoor about
death. Perhaps the habitual pluiuuess pf
spiecb about it among the latter may con
tribute toward hssenmg the learof it among
them. But there is aD obvious and deeply
pu hi tic explanation of their calmness in the
prospect'ol it tor themselves or for those
dearest to them. The hardness and bareness
ol life lessens its bold upon them ; sometimes
wen makes them feel it not an inheritance
to be coveted for their children. The dull
resignation with which they often say the
little ones are ‘better c9’ when they d;e, tells
a grievous story of the struggle for mere ex
istence ; while the simplicity ol their faith
in tbe unsOc-n is equally striking in its cheer
ful thirty. Both habits of uitud tend to
a-miuifch the feat of death daelf, as weli as.
the unwillingness to of it which be
longs to more complicated states of fueling'
und more luxurious lmbi*B of lifal”
It oftimes happens, as in the case of Dr.
Johnson, that the man who has the most
mmbid fear of death while in strong bodily
health, who has f,ught against the honor of
;it till he h:u suffered far mor>‘than a hun
dred times its nctnal terror during his life
time. will pass through it with the utmost
serenity wlnn at last it reallv comes. Hence
it does no', follow necrsoaiily that vvh.it is
needed to correct the excess of panic with
which demth is contemplated, mtnt l»c some
thing adequate To rfioatfi the soul when it"
brually come*, for those who have most I#
sustain them in the final crisis constantly
*nfh r uia-t in the prematuie contemplation
ol that cr«is ; while those, again, wlm have
no mprbid Jearol deaih till it i* close hi
hand, may be the least able to face it when
it comes
A* rig rds the pninlessne-s of the natural
process of dying—it is clearly to Unexpected.
AH suffering, even faintness, which is often'
the worst sort ed' suffering, is the Struggle of
the firirvciple of fife against some physical
diseisS or failure which endangers life ; and
so long as fife is strong the struggle may be
terrible. Hut when life „eUbf». the power to
' tuff r physically must ebb with it.
T.S thh corning of life is gradual and un
conscious, so analogy would apparently be
in lavor of the last great change being grad
ual and ultcenicious, too ; and what analogy
nrggeets, observation appears to cm firm.
Even in the case of violent doaths, it rnay he
fairly said that the pain suffered is not due
to death, but to the vitality of full health,
since the suffering from acts of violence
which are the most nearly fatal, is usually
less ihun the rmflerieg from those which,
though dangerous, do net appear to under
mine equally the vital strength.. It is not
the tnmi who suffers in being disembodied ;
and the suffering grows less, not greater, us
the life in the body dwindles.
“V\ hile lile is sw*t*i, we must needs shrink,
more or less, from what at least looks like
its untimely teiminution. If it were not lim
the conventional association of sorrow with
death already referred to, few, perhaps,
would be selfish enough of wish to detain the
aged from rest, and U> themselves the pros
pect is rarely unwefConie ;.but forth young
in their spring time, of the middle-aged in
their-vigor, death necex-arily involves a ims
which )s not the less real, and need rotbe
the le*« keenly felt because it may be re
garded as overbalanced by the gain. But
the truth is brought home to us again and
again, tbut we have not light enough to
choose by.* In the dimness we can lankly
discern that lile lias other kinds of complete
ness besides length of days.
It is not growing like a t ree
In hoik doth make man Hotter be,
Or standing long aD oak, three hundred year,
To fall a log nt last, dry, bald and sere.
A bly of a day
Is fairer far in May
Although it fall and die that night,
It was the plant and flower of light.
In small proportions we just beauties sea,
Aud in short measure life may per I act be.
As the years go on there gathers a special
radiance of eternnl youth around some ol the
figures from whom all our hopes in this
world have been most sharply severed.
There are lives so rounded and crowned,by
tbeir completed deeds ol love, that death
seems to have appeared in the lullness of
their prime, only to consecrate them forever;
others stand apart from human ties in a
.solitude which makes time seem of little
consequence, and the grave a not unfamiliar
country. In all these cures we may even
now see n fitness in what, according to mere
reckoning of time, would be culled unseason
able. And if we can catch glimpses of these
things from without, there ure no doubt
many inward dramas which refuse to square
themselves with the external framework of
human life.
Matrimonial Blight.
Sometimes when the blighted being puts
forth its marriage ss the cause of its melan
choly, no one knows why it should. The run
of things es tbe world sees them is smooth
enough; why, thin, should that wretched
woman go about like concentration of de
spair? Fler husband is really a very nice
fellow, and whatever flaws he may have, his
demerits were all known before marriage.
Why, then, act and look as if they were
things which have grown since, and which
were not in the bargain when it was made?
And again, why should that disagreeable
little peen'iarity—this unpleasant little char
acteristic —stmil the rest of his good quali
ties, lyid make her life wretched because he
is not parfeol all through? The same may
be said of men who make, at tiroes, so much
acc> unt of this or that unpleasant trait in
their wives, though counterbalanced by sucß
sterling excellencies. Men however, seldom
Irt themselves be so utterly crushed by an
unhappy marriage as do the weaker, less en
ergetic and, we must add, less reasonable
sex. If the r hone is uncomfortable thry
keep out of it as much as they can ; and
when in it do the best possible to uiintmi-e
the misfortune contained in the shrew or the
slattern. Women, poor souls, cannot do this
so much. Fate and custom are hardest on
the weaker soit ; but, for all that, even an
unhappy tnarriMge hys its ameliorations in
duty and occupation of which wise women
take advantage, and blighted beings do not.
One can understand that marriage should
contain a blight, even when one does not un
derstand how or why. There are mysteries
of uncongeniality which do not come to the
surface, but which are quite sufficient to de
stroy all happiness; und a social woman
married to a recluse, a shy one to a showy
boaster, an honorable soul to a dishonorable,
a generous to a mean, and so on, may ac
count lor blight, if even then you think a
little philosophy the better thing.— Uenlle
m it’s Magazine.
If a nmn is on the cars and sees a young
lady he doesn’t know from Eve and never
saw before, tiying to let down the window,
he throws down Irts paper, takes off his hfr»;
bows himself double, smiles clear round to
his after collar-button, say 4sweetly, “ Allow
me!” and closes the window with graceful
skill and charming courtesy. It bis sister
says, “ loro, won’t you please let this wtoJvw
down for me!” he tucks bis paper savagely
uuder bis aim, and stalking across the aisle,
stands on her feet while tie tamgs tbe window
down with a slain that fills her lace and hair
with dust. And if bis wife, holding the
baby id one arm and a luncli basket on tbs
other, tries to let down the window and says
timidly and suggestively, ‘ Oh, <V>nr. I don't*
believe I can get it down,” la; gran's, savs
“Eh ? oh !” and buries himself si ill deeper iu

A SIMILAR CASE.
Jack. I hear yon ye gone and done it,
Ye<f, I'know ; most f» ||*»vrw will ;
Went and tried it,once rr,yser f , .sir,
Though you see I’m single still
And yon met’ fier —did you tell me?—
Down at Newport last July,
And resolved to ask the question
At a sotreip ? So did I.
I suppose you left the ball room,
With its mm-ic and its light ;
For they say love’s flame is’brightest
In the darkness of the night.
W*4l you walked along together.
Overhead the starlit slv»
And I'll yet—confess, old
You were frightened. Bo was I.
So yon strojlerl alcrg the terrace,
Saw the Hummer moonlight pour
All its radiance on the waters
As ttrey rippled on tiie shore ;
Till at length you gathered courage.
When you saw that none were nigh
Did you draw her close and tell her
That you loved her? So did 1.
Well, I needn't ask you further,
And I’m sure 1 wish you joy ;
Think I’ll wander down and see yqu
When you Ye married—eh, my hoy ?
When the honeymoon is over
And you’re settled down, we'll try—
WH.it ? The dvoee you sav ! Rejected
Ton rejected f Ho was I !
