Friend of my soul! this goblet dp; TwiH chat that pensive tear; Tie not so sweet as woman's lip, BnL oh! 'tis mow sincere. Like her delusive beam, 'Twill steal away thy mind; But, like affection's dream. Zt leaves no sting behind I Come, twine the wreath thy brows to sheds, These flowers were culled at noon; Lilte woman's love the rote will fad, But, ah .' not haif so scon I For though the flower's decayed, Its fragranco is not o'er ; But or.c when love's betrayed, . The heart can bloom no mora.

How My Ghost Was Laid, He fell fiat on the. ground before me. clasped his hands to his forehead, and uttered a horrible groan. Jieyer on the stage did rnmdered villain fall so suddenly or with such a whack. I began to shake all over. I was. in fact,-frightened almost to death. Had I killed him? Had I really killed John Rogers? I -was young enough to think it possible. I did not then feel quite as bure as I do now that " Men have died and' worms have eaten them, but not for love." My 16th birthday -was just past, and John Rogers was only 21. He -was not exactly a milk-maid ; Biddy called him the milk gentleman'; " but h milked his mother's cow, and was condescending enough to bring it to our door in a tin can every evening. We did not keep a cow. The railway ran at the toot of our property, and we had had the pleasure of seeing three Alderneys immolated on cow-catchers ; and, as Mrs. Rogers remarked that " thougn she was a lady tothe backbone, and jest as good as anybody in that n eighborhood, ef not a leetle better, she did not mind letting us have her extra milk," wegave up our own expeiiments in cow-keeping and were served by John Rogers. Fart of the bargain understood, though unexpressed, was that the milk-bringing was to be taken in the light of a call. A member of the family received the can, and remarked sagely that it was warm, cold, rainy, or that we needed rain, and asked how Mrs. Rogers found herself. "When one sovereign obliges another great ceremony is required. 1 think I never shall forget the linen suits, made as well as washed and ironed by his mamma, in which John Rogers always appeared ; his head of curly red hair ; his big blue eyes, very round and wide open; his long, red hands and wrists, and the length of stocking, ankle ard shoe string which finished him off. He generally wore a pink in his buttonhole. He was romantic, and had a volume of Tennyson and another of Tom Moore, which he was fond of quoting ; and so we come again to he reason of his falling flat on the ground at my feet in that pece of woodland, and which was called in the neighborhood Peek's grove. - I had not been wandering there arm-in-arm with John Rogers, but I had a habit of taking my book there on sultry afternoons, and he had fallen into another habit of going home that way after serving the milk. Sometimes he had a book in his pocket and would take it out anil favor me with a selection. Lady

J. was not particularly delighted with this attention, but our supply of milk was dependent on our civility; and I was civil.; and so it had come to this John Rogers had proposed to me. There, in the woodland, he had offered me his heart and hand, and I had said : Oh, Mr. Rogers, please don't I I couldn't possibly think of marrying. Tm too young. Mamma and papa call me their little giri.w ' "Never you mind, Celina. Old folks never kin understand young folks is growed up," replied John Rogers. We itin tt Ait. Wa. tr in lrrv pnmmnv a. vAnr

mention it jest now." "Oh, I dont mean that, Mr. Rogers," I said, -in terror. "I don't want to wait. I mean I" here I thought of the milk. ' I regard you with tne greatest respect as a neighbor, but oh, no, Mr. Rogers, don't put your arm around my waist. I can't allow it ; but I reraldii't think of marrying you at any time," " " -; -: rlay !" cried John Rogers. He said it so ehai ply that I started. 11 Ah, I see that lam right !" cried John Rogers. " -Youve been a-trifling wUh my feelings. TouVe led me on to this to crush" me under your heel. Xou thort to break a country heart for parstime ere you went to teown," - "Oh, Mr. Rogers!" I cried, in desperation, "you know I'm not going to town ; we always live here." "It's all the same, "said John Rogers; 4 Sou t-eld your course without remorse, To make me trust my modest worth; And last 70a fixed a vacant stare. And a'ew me with your noble birth, Miss . Celina Tompkins. Oh, I know you." "Dear me, Tm sure it's very dreadful of you to say so, Mr. Rogers," I said. " Then you repent?" said John Rogers.- " You ain't a goin to yield to this here pride of birth. When" folks ;,elations are ministers and doctors they do feel sot up .by it generally, but u However it be it seems to mi ris only noble to be good, Kind hearts are more than Than doctors' signs, and simple Faith more than dominies' blood.

" Oh, no, Mr. Rogers," I sobbed; " oh, no. I'm sure" the milk rose before my memory again " I'm sure no lamxty could be more respected than yours; but I never mean to marry at

un, yes, inaeea it is. 1 m very sorry, but indeed it is," said L Instantly, without warning, Slr. Rogers threw his book one way and his milk-kettle the other, and fell flat before me in the road. " Get up, Mr. Rogers," I cried, when he had been perfectly motionless for full five minutes. fc " Oh, get up, get up!" And to my relief he answered, but what he said was really terrible; Miss OsHna Tompkins! There stands a specter in your hall, The guilt of blood is at your door You're killed mel" Had I killed John Rogers? As I said tjefore, 1 was young enough to believe it possible. For an hour I stayed there poking him with my "pink-lined parasol, .shedding hot tears, bogging ijim to rise. He only moaned. Finally, as it was growing quite dark, I picked up his book and his tin can, put his hat on the back of his head and hurried home. At the gate I met a little boy and gave him a 10-ent piece to run unci ttII Mrs. Rogers that something had happene-1 to her son, Mr. Rogers, and that she'd better go and look fur him in "Pt-ck's grove;" and I added 5 cents more not to tell who sent him. Thn I went home. I had done ail 1 could do. I could not marry John Rogers, but I felt very guilty. - There was no milk for breakfast next morning, nor did Mrs. Rogers again "It us have any." Her manners certainly had not that repose which marks fha fcusto of Vere do Vtw ; and when she called to .collect the bill she gave my mother :an utilunitWl pioce of her infill, ending with : M IM hev you to ;;r.;wt maa-ii, that nv? nad .my folks is tfrt u. p,(y.h as yoii and your folks ;n:y tliiy tho yr ; a hs for my John, r-t I'd kn -.vm1 wiiat h van after' I'd hev f howt d him.

" l.).i't lihtme her, nvtmrrm," I vdil.c, "iye.brokeii jpoor John Rogora

There was a good deal of rain about that time, and chills and fever prevailed to an alarming extent., John Rogers took them I suppose lying on the ground was not. good for him and had them very badly. He enjoyed it, I think now, but he was a terrible, haunting ghost to me as he grew thinner and thinner, and yellower and yellower, and haunted my path" with reproachful goggle eyes and Tennyson sticking out of his pocket" I think my remorse might eventually have broken down my constitution if papa had not decided that we should all spend a year in Europe. I married abroad, and on our return we all settled in New York, and I felt glad not to return and face the tombstone of poor John Rogers. "I'm afraid," I often said to my husband' with tears in my eyes "I'm afraid, love, that I have broken one honest heart that loved me well, and that I may even bo responsible for a life." And I, never dared to sleep alone in the dark, for I fear of seeing the ghost of poor John Rogers pointing to a volume of Tennyson. "How the years fly !" But mine flew happily. I was 30 years old, and the mother of three little children, when we one day bethought us to go upon an excursion up the river. The day was lino; the air delicious ; the boat a little too crowded. On our way we stopped at the landing nearest our old home, and. though fourteen years had flown, j thought of John Rogers and grew melancholy. That ghost," I said to myseli, " will never be laid. Yet certainly I did nothing wrong. I never encouraged him, and I could not marry him. That would have been impossible. " Meanwhile the gang-plank, as I believe they call it, was thrown out, and some people came on board. Among them was an exceedingly fat, comfortable man of 35 or more ; liis wife, a dry, skinny person, in a bright blue bonnet and a purple grenadine dress, and a small tribe of children, I should not have noticed them any more than any of the rest but for the man's amazing promptitude in gathering up camp-stools and the fact that he seated the famih very near our party. Once established, however, it was impossible to forget them, for he talked incessantly. " Martha Jane, got the basket ? Wal, I am relieved ; thought you'd left it, and we'd be obliged to buy our victuals at the tavern, charging as they do. Sally, stop scratchinyour shoe toes. Do you think I'm made of money? Ma, h'ist Peter onto your lap, won t you ? Next thing he'll be overboard. . Don't scratch your head so, David. Ma, your vail'il git blowed off next, and you'll be bofcherin about a new one." " When I bother, Til get one," replied a sharp female voice. " Ef I was you I wouldn't publish my meanness to- the hull boat, John Rogers," John Rogers ! At the name I turned, and looked full into the fat man's face. It was very red and round now. No hollow in the cheeks no sharpness in the temples, but there were the big goggle eyes, round and blue as ever. The nose, with the funny nicks in the nostrils, and the curious, pale reddish eyebrows, and a good deal - of the pale reddish hair. , It is John Rogers 1" I ejaculated, involuntarily. It was his turn to be startled. " Who on earth ! " he ejaculated. Then a sudden light of recognition appeared on his face. "Not Miss Celina Tompkins I" he cried, and we shook hands. " This here's my partner,'' he said, indicating his wife with a wave ol his umbrella ; "and 1 see you've got one, too, and both our quivers is purty full. We've got. older ain't we, all of us, sinco you lived to Plankville? Grand'ther was fortynate enough to die next spring, and me and Samanthy stepped off in August I wugh more'n I used to done ; I turn the miller's scales at 200. Mrs. Rogers, this here is" I gave him my married name as he paused, and received a very unfavorable glance from Mrs. John Rogers, ' Afterward I heard her spouse explaining : "She sot considerably by me when she was a gal, but she took too many airs. She was one of them kind that was all outside and nothin' solid, so I let her know I wasn't to be caught. They did say she most broke her heart I dunno." - " If she knowed what I've had to atand she'd rejoice," retorted the still unmollified Mrs. John Rogers. " I'm sure I wish you'dhad her." A little "later I saw them with their nine (I had an impression that they had nine) small children, and one in the arms, hunting for a place to lunch comfortably, and I turned to . my husband with a sort of gasp. "My dear," I said, " that's my ghost that's the person Tve always believed I murdered " The one who died of love for your sake ?" asked my spouse. I answered: "The very same John Rogers. He is laid at last " New York

Treatment of the Insane.

Noisy as Bedlam," "mad as Bed

lam " they used to say a generation or two ago ; but few thought of the terrible reality hid under the familiar 'expression. The word is corrupted from Bethlehem, from 1547 to 1814 a noted English mad-house. He who entered its door left hope behind. Indeed, even before entering, the most fearful terrors were brought to bear on his bewildered brain, dislodging whatever of reason might be left, under the absurd idea that the insane can be ruled by fear alone. Within this house were life-long- horrors beyond ordinary conception cells, chains, clogs, strait-jackets, stripes, blows with the fist, noisome food, filth, foul air, drunken keepers. Let one think of his own mother or daughter thrust into such a place 1 But the long succession of inmates, who, for three centuries, were relieved of the horrors of Bedlam only by death; were equally sensitive to suffering; equally shrank from terror; would have beon equally susceptible to kiudues ; and might, by right methods, as a;ily have had their fevered brains curod or calmed. It is only since 1793 that, in Paris, the law of love, with its miracles of healing, began, to displace the law of fbrctt ; and it is only forty years since the same change was inaugurated in Ktiglaiul. In o:ir own land mauy of the old idciis still prevail ; and nothing can tave our insaue from the h& tendencies of unfit attendants but stringent laws and Hiate snpeivision. Kind treatment alone tends to the cure of insanity, otherwise the disease tends to hopc-lc-sMie, Denver People. A Denver correspondent of the Hartford Times says: To discriminate in speaking of society here is to prepare to receive the censure of some and the approval of others; but your correspondent can safely assert that it is decidedly a mixture. Culture is not a necessary qualification. Itwouldseem that wealth is taken for an equivalent for education and refinement Recent discoveries in the mines have made "bonanza kings," and paved the way to social as well as ofllcial position. 1 But this city iB not alone in this respect During the day the city is thronged with people rushing to and fro, all full of business or cares of some kind. Let it be great or small business, a man goes about it just the same as if his success depended on the day's work. This is a noted characteristic of the average Denverite.

Pure milk condensed to one-third will remain sweet from five to ten days in warm weather. Temper in animals is hereditary as well as in man; it is not desirable to breed from a vicious sire. Mb. Auam Scott, a prominent Maine Jieep-breeder, last winter fed 330 wethers, and fro discern how rapidly they were gaining in flesh secured two which ho weighed every month. On the 12th of January they weighed respectively 120 and 136 pounds, and continued to gain steadily up to the 12th of April, when they weighed 150 and 170. They were fed one and one-fourth pounds of corn daily with all the hay they could eat The total cost for feed being estimated at seventeon cents per month an increase of about twenty cents per month for each sheep over the value of food eaten. A 15EASOS for tho application of salt as a fertilizer for growing crops is that it -oontaius both soda and chlorine. Nearly all plants contain those substances to some extent, and need to be supplied; sonio rrfouts contain moro than others, as, for instance, white clover contains five pounds of soda and two pounds of chlorine in 1,000 pounds; beets, cabbage, and turnips contain from four to six pounds in 1,000; tobacco contains seven pounds of soda and nine pounds of chlorine; beet seeds contain eight pounds of soda and five pounds of chlorine, aud all those are greatly benefitted by an application of salt Trees should be generally aet the same depth that they previously stood in the soil, allowing an inch or two more or less for the settling of the newly stirred earth. On heavy soils they will be more injured by being planted too deep, than on those of a light sandy, or gravelly nature, and where greater depth is needed to prevent tho eilects ol drought. On lauds inclining to be wet, setting trees upon the surface, and raising the earth upon the roots is a mode that has some advantages, among which are the greater depth of soil thus made and the prevention of water settling among the roots. The raising of cattle, sheep and poultry for the supply of our village and city markets is every day becoming a matter more deserving of the attention of the agricultural community. Tho demaud i. becoming more and more difficult to supply, as larger quantities and finer qualities are being continually sought after. As raising supplies of beet-, mutton, veal, lamb and poultry attracts moro and mitre of the attention of farmers, ia like proportion will all information be welcome, which furnishes accurate and reliable details as to the worth, economical methods of fattening- and getting ready for market any of the above products. The breed of animals most easily fattened, aud the kind of feeding which is at once most effectual and most economical, are points upon which- we may yet obtain considerable increase of reliable and useful information. The age of horned Cattle may generally be known by rings on the horns till their tenth year; after that time they give no indication of age further than that the animal has passed its tenth year. The first ring appears on the horn after the animal has passed two years old soon after, as- a general rule, though sometimes before that age. During the third year, the ring gradually increases, and at three years of age it is completely formed. The second ring appears during the fourth year, and at the fifth year it is complete. After that period an additional ring is formed each year. This rule is snfliciently plain, and even a young farmer needs but lit tie practice to enable him to read a cow's age on her horns. A cow with- three rings is six years old; with four she is seven years old. No new rings are formed nf far the tenth year; the deeper rings, however, and the worn appearance of the hornB are pretty sure indications of old age. Fob Crania Best, Pork, Mutton, Hams, Etc. -To one gallon of water, 1 lbs. of salt, i lb. of sugar, ouuee saltpetre, ounce .potash! In this ratio the pickle can be increased to any quantity desired. Let these be boiled together until all the dirt from tho sugar rises to the top and is skimmed off. Then throw it into a tub to cool, and when cold pour it over jrour beef or pork. The meat must be well covered with pickle, aud should not be put down for at least two days after killing, during which time it should be slightly sprinkled with powdered saltpetre, which removes all the surface blood, etc, leaving the meat fresh and clean; Some omit boiling the pickle, and find it to answer well, though the operation of boiling purifies the pickle, by throwing off the dirt al ways to be found in salt and sugar. If this recipe is strictly followed, it will require only a single trial to prove its superiority over the common way, or most ways, of putting down meat, and will not soon be abandoned for any other. The meat is unsurpassed for sweetness, delicacy, and freshness of color. Omit the potash unless you can get the pure article. Druggists usually keep it Farmers' Union. The following practical advice on the management of colts is from tho Lancaster Farmer: If a colt is rever allowed to get an advantage, it will never know that it possesses a power that man can not control; and if made familiar with strange objects, it will not be skittish and nervous. If a horse is mode accustomed from his early clays to have objects hit him on the heels, back and hips, he will pay no attention to the giving out of a harness, or of wagons miming against him at an unexpected moment. We once saw an aged lady drive a high-spirited horse, attached to a carriage, down a steep hill, with no hold-back straps upon the harness; and she assured us that there was no danger, for her son accustomed his horses to all kinds of usage and sights, that corn; aonly drive animals int' a frenrf of fenr and fright A gun can be fired from in front of a horse. An umbrella held over his head, a buffalo robe thrown over his neck, a railroad engine pass close by, his heels be thumped with sticks, and the animal take it all as a natural condition of things, if only taught by careful management that he will not be injured thereby. Mitigating CIrcnmstances. Uncle Mose was up before the Galveston Recorder yesterday for giving his son, Abe Linkum, an unmerciful beating. As Old Mose is notorious for being a quiet, kind-hearted man, tho Recorder was anxious to know what the provocation was, and he put that question direct "Da troof am jest as I am guine ter tell yer. Las' Sundaymornin' 1 lathered my iaee all ober and went to shave myself. Do razor jest tore my chin all ter pieces, so dat I had ter yell out Abe Linkum, d it ar young cub, spoke up and says: 'What's de matter, daddy?1 I says, Dis heah razor don't cut wuff a cent' Now, Jedge, what doesyer allow dat boy said back ter me? " "I can't imagine' replied the Recorder. " Well, sah, he says: 'Daddy, I don't see why dat ar razor ain't frhorp enough to cut de little tuftsescs of wool often your chin, when dis mornin' I out a big stick of wood in two wid dat same razor, to make me a boAv and arrer.'

Of course I knew, as other chemists did, the explosive material that was necessary to produce instantaneous light, but it was difficult to obtain a light on wood by that mixture, and the idea occurred to me to put sulphur in the mixture. I did so, and told about it. and showed it in my next lecture. There was a young man iu the room whoso father was a chemist iii London, and ho at once wrote to him about it, aud soon afterward lueifer mutches were issued to the world, I was urged to go aud take out a patent immediately, but I thought it so small a matter, and it cost me so little labor, that I did not think proper to get a patent, although I have no doubt it would have been very profitable." The name of this inventor of matches is Mr. Holden, and ho is an Englishman. FACTS FOR THE CURIOUS.

Scientists agree that ants possess something approaching to language. Thk common garden spider has been known to live ten months without food. FiiiES have been known to recover after having been immersed twelvemonths in wine. Pearls are sometimes so numerous in the pearl oyster that the animal cannot shut his shell, and so perishea. Le VatlijAnt says that he heard a parrot repeat the Lord's prayer from beginning to eud in the Dutch language. A tamb owl has been known to hop about upon the keys of a piano, apparently delighted with hjjj performance. This sense of smelling is lesB perfect in the lion than in most other animals.

Two crows built a nest in one of the two fine plane trees in the center of the city of London inside the orchway in St Paul's Churchyard.

Nerve impulses are conducted along the nerves very slowly in comparison to the speed of electricity along a copper wire. The latter travels 16,000,000 times as fast as a nerve impidso, and yet the nerve impulse travels with the speed of the fastest railroad train. Tub waste of material in coal mining is enormous. It is estimated that only two-thirds of the coal in workable vermis taken out; there is a further loss oi 25 per cent in the preparation and delivery. The Reading Railroad Company has spent $300,000 in the attempt to utilize wfaste coal by burning it in locomotives constructed for the purpose. There are 50 injurious bisects in oui vegetable gardens, 50 in our vineyards, 75 attack our uppl tiros, more than 100 injure our shade trees and more than 50 our grain fields. .Seventy-five million of dollars was the damage done to the wheat in Illinois in oneseason, and nearly ten years ago the annual loss in the United States, from insects alone, was 400,000,000. At a meeting of the Maryland Academy of Sciences Dr, Theobold showed n spec es of beetle and gave the following figures I Weight of beetle., 2 grains; weight moved by it, 5 ounces 2,540 grains, or 1,320 times the weight of tinbeetle. A man weighing 150 pounds, endowed with t he strength of this insect, should therefore be able to move 198;000 pounds, or nearly 100 tons.

In the great establishments ou the coast of Calvados, the merchants teach- oysters to keep their shells closed when out of the water, by which the liquor re tained keeps their gills moist, and they arrive lively in far-distant Paris. The process may be worthy extensive publicity ; it is this ; No sooner is an oyster taken from the sea than it closes its shells, and opens them after a certain time from fatigue, it is siud, but more probably because the shock it received by removal into the air, causing its muscles to contract, has passed away. The Calvados men take advantage of this to exercise the oysters, and make them ae "stomed to be out of the water, by leaving them daily hi the atmosphere for longer and longer periods. This has the desired effect ; the well-educated moilnsk keeps its door closed at least foi many consecutive hours, and so long at the shell is closed its gills ore kept moist Pat's Explanation. Pat is a hard nut for even a vetenui cross-examiner to crack. The estute Daniel O'Connell was not infrequently worsted in encounters with s ome troublesome witness. How an officer fared in an encounter with an Irish soldier is told as follows : While on the Peninsula,, during the war, an officer one day came across a private soldier belonging to one of the most predatory companies of the Irish Brigade. The fellow had the lifeless bodies of a goose and a hen tied together by the heels, dangling from his musket "Where did you steal these, you rascal ?" the oflicer demanded. "Steal, is it? Faith, I was marching along with Color Sergeant Maguiro, and the goose bad cess to it came out and hissed at the American flag, and, bedad, 1 shot him on the sjot !" "But the hen, sir how about tho hen r "It's the hen, is it ? Bud luck to the bin !

The Secret of Jenny Lind's Success In the concert-room, whether in the classical masterpieces of Handel, Moart, Haydn or Mendelssohn, or iu the lighter style of arias and songs, she always demanded of herself the highest standard of excellence. When assuming the first soprano part in " Tho Messiah," " The Creation," "Elijah," " The Requiem' the melodios of Schubert and Schumann, or her own national Bongs, the earnestness and zeal, the total abstraction from all that surrounded her, impressed and fascinated the hearers quite as much as her dramatic performances had done. I remember that at a concert at Natchez, on the Mississippi, when the steamer stopped to take fuel, she sang before an audience of about 1,000 persons, composed of a small number of planters and their families, tho great bulk being colored people. There, as in another place, Memphis, and at the usual hour of 11 o'clock in the morning, she sxecuted her solos with a finish and perfection which would have astonished the frequenters of Her Majesty's Theater, In London, or the Academic de Musique, in Paris. When I complimented her and expressed my surprise that before so many who probably heard for the first time an artist of her renown, and woidd have been satisfied with even an ordinary performance, she should have taken so much pains to do her very best, she replied : "I value my art too highly to degrade it even occasionally by any willful disregard of what I consider due to it" The Friend of Delicate Ladies is Warner's Safe Kidney and Iiivor Cure. A Sea Waif. A very curious anecdote is told concerning Admiral By thesea, V. C, C. B., who retired from the service, after having for many years filled the post of Consulting Naval Officer to the Government of Ii:dia. It is stated that the Admiral was picked up, when an infant, fnr out at r.cn, hushed to a bale of goods. A lady presumably his mother was with him, but she was dead, and there was no evidence of any kind by which the name of the waifs could be traced Th oflicers of the man-of-war which picked up the poor little infant did all they1 could by advertisement and in (miry to discover liis relatives, and, finding all their attempts futile, they determined to adopt the child, to which they gave the name of By the Sea." He was sent to a naval school, and, when old enough, joined the navy. By a happy coincidence the first ship in which ho served was the one which had sated his life at an infant He took to his profession, and during tho Crimean war distinguished himself at the Island of Wardo, where he earned the Victoria Cross and tho decoration of C. B. Later on his eervic-.:s iu India gave him tho Companionship of tho Order of the Indian Empire, and he retired from the service with the.rank of Admiral a consummanon little dreamed of by the kind-heait-ed officers who rescued and educated him. ' Uecrcation.

It thus appears that the one essential principle of all recreation must be variety that is, the substitution of ono set of activities for another, and, consequently, the successive affortUng of rest to bodily structures as they become successively exhausted and so tho undergraduate finds recreation in rowing, because it gives his brain time to recover its exhausted energies, while the historian and the man of science find mutual relief to their respect ive faculties in each other's labors.
