The hill of lire it steep and hijzh, And thorns the grasses underlie, We know it well my heart aud I. We've had oar foes, my heart and I; We've had our friends. We've bad oar loves, my heart and I, Where friendship ends. We've bid a hundred loves good-bye. We've seen huudred friendships die; Aye, that. we have my heat and I. We've met with scorn, my heart and I; We've met with praise; When envy let his arrows fly To mar our days, We'd langh to sew them pass ns by, If canning forged a subtle lie, We would his fiendish arts defy. And foil onr foes my heart and I. When beauty, blushing sweet and shy, Would, unaware, Pierce my warm heart with glances sly, We'd shun the snare; Old trout avoid the angler's fly; And faithless hearts would vainly try To separate my heart and I. Now here we are, my heart aid I, While Ur belww We hear the murmuring Nations' cry, And reap and sow. We've sown and reaped, my heart and I, And only ask in pea:e to die; Cod grant a rett my heart and I. STORY OF A WHITE üLAVE. (Cmuia Herrick Weed, in the Boston Sunday Budget A farm-houe kitchen, wide and pleasant, the spring sunshine lying in bright squares on the glossy floor, and the wind out of the old apple orchard, and the long line of snowy cherry trees, drifting in at the open door, with its delicious perfume and breezy which are piled high the freshly baked loaves brown and fragrant a woman no longer young, but whose hair is plentifuly sprinkled as if trom the weight of years. And yet she has seen but forty years, albeit years that could but leave their traces on heart and brain, so full have they been crowded with the burdens that, once borne, leave their ineffaceable impress for all time to come. She has been fair once. If you doubt it look at at the blooming girl who enters from the porch, with rippling, burnished hair and glad blue eyes the image of her mother they called her, as that mother looked twenty years ago. You have seen two roses on their parent stem, one with its creamy heart, rich and fragrant, just opening to the kiss of the June sun; the other, a little lower down, faded, withered, and with scentless leaves, sadly folding from the light and dew, neither of which is able to renew its life and beauty. You have noted the contrast, and yet have not doubted that the dying flower, in its heyday and morn of bios soming, was equally sweet and glorious with the now unfolding one. And if Lillian Grey l loveiy and lull ot woman s promise, no less so was Miriam Grey, standing in the May sunlight a score of years agone. The elder woman looks at the young girl with an ineffable light of love and yearning in her faded eyes. "Lillie," she says tenderly, "I finished your dress last night except the lace at the neck and wrists, so you can have it to wear thii afternoon." "Why, mamma," Lillian Grey answered, 'I had intended to wear some other. I did not wish you to sit up when you were so tired. You know 1 did not." But I wished you to have it, dear," her mother said fondly. ''The other girls will be in white, and 1 could not bear that you should be disappointed." Iler daughter went up to her, and putting her arms around her neck kissed her pale mouth tenderly. It was a little lead, but it sweetened that whole weary day of toil for Miriam Grey. You had better dress before dinner, Lillie," her mother resumed, "so as to be ready when they call for you." I will help you first about the dinner," the girl replied. But the mother put her by with the assurance that she could do quite well alone. And so the thoughtless though really unselfish girl left the kitchen, and tripping to her own little chamber, began her simple toilet; while her mother, flushed and weary, bent above the glowing range, and hurried to and fro, from pantry to cellar, and from store-room to table-, in her preparations for the midday meal. Hurried? yes, she was always hurrying to and fro in this domain; she had hurried for many years, would hurry still, no doubt, until some day when the power was cone. and the reaction came, and the worn-out machine refused to longer perform its accustomed functions. Then the hurry would be over. Farmer Grey came in from the field flushed and heated, his great brawny frame in striking contrast to the slender figure of the woman, who flitted about, while he washed at the great sink in the corner, and then asked the stereotyped question: "I3 dinner ready?" ''Yes," she answered quietly. 'You can call the men." And without one smils for the weary face opposite his own at the table, without taking note that her own plate of food was scarcely touched, John Grey ate his hearty, wellcooked meal in silence, and when he had finished, rose from the table, followed by hi3 farm hands, and went out. At the porch ho turned back. "You'll have to help me milk to night, Miriam," he called out. I don't want to stop the teams as long as we can see to work in this hurrying time." It was rarely the patient woman remonstrated with her lord's dictations. But this time a vision of the labor to be performed that afternoon rose before her and she said meekly: 'I hardly see how I can, John, as Lilian is going away and will not be here to help tne about the supper. 7 Keep her at home, then'he said gruffly, J'Our work can t be put ott lor her to run the roads." Which elegant harangue was simply equivalent to a reiterution of the previously pronounced edict. After the table was cleared Lilian left with the gay party of "picknickers" who called for her, and Sirs. Grey, after seeing her off, came back to her domain with the old weary look in her face, and resumed her arduous toil. She had failed to finish the week's ironing in the forenoon, owing to a few little hinderances, such as the skimming of a hundred pans of milk, and the washing of the milk pans, the working and packing ot a tubof golden butter (Mrs. Grey's butter was excellent, and well it might be, she worked so much of her life ajvay in its production), the washing and dressing of the children for school, the chamber work and washing of dishes for a large household, to gay nothing of the thousand little trifles sandwiched between, each with its complement of a dozen step$ or so. And now she resumed her place at the ironing table, clothing the bars in their white, spotless apparel, and finishing only as the clock pointed to the hour of tour. Within the next hour she must prepare the 6 o'clock supper, and kirn the milk that is awaiting her dexterous hand in the cool, clean dairy, that she may afterward assist in the milking, according to her master's explicit orders. A hard thiii, this slavery, is it not? The sun went down that night in a great bed of roseate billows, the pink flush overlaying the heavens like a tinted veil. The time had ben when Maria in Gray would have watched gnch a sunset with tho rapturous appreciation of a sensitive, poetic soul, when the glories of the panorrma cf nature, spread out before her, called up such emotions as found expre3eion in many, a sweet and rythmic idyl, which those who read were not slow to ap
predate, as 1elonging to a high order of creative and imaginative genius. Haa the olden fire all died out within her, that she turns away from the inimitable painting in full view of her window, and busies hersell in the petty detalU of her narrow fcitr.hen. without another slance?
She ha. no time to waste on such indulgences. The setting of the sun indicates that what remains ot the day's toil must be finished quickly, and only the half-suppressed sigh that wells up from her heart tfistififts that she is not content to shut her evea on the beautv and lovliness that lie broadcast over all the sweet spring landscape. And this is only one day one of many, that follow hard one upon the other, each like unto the rest, with its unvaried, unyielding 1 i unnitvinfr. hurrvine ne cessities, that, like a whip of small cords, lash the victim on in her flagging exertions. The summer came summer over all the world, balmy and luxuriant; summer airs in at the window: summer roses in the gar den; but no summer came into Miriam Grey's life. Spring and summer have gone by. The days are much alike to her, whether outside are blossoms or drifting snow, since the narrow world i a which she lives admits of no chanire of season that hints at release from toil. ller task-ma-ter, after tha hanests are gathered in, and the winter comes bluster ing and wailing over the mountains, sits by the kitchen fire and allows himself rest from his labors. But it is not so with the woman who shares his fortunes. It is work, work, work still. Over her shoulder a grim ghoul is ever lookinir. and urcing her on with his hollow, pitiless eyes. She wonders, sometimes, away down in Ler heart, unseen and unheard, what there is in the coarse, unsympathetic, half-cruel man whose name she boars that could ever have awakened her love n the morning of her happy youth. She loves him yet not as she loved him then, for love is a rare exotic; and, although it may not die at once, transplanted into sterile soil, and exposed to chilling winds, will one by one shed its quivering leaves and dying blossoms till only the naked, shivering stalk betokens its existence, which, on examination, may still prove to hold a little of the elixir of life in its shrouded center. Does he love her? He has not told her so not, at least, for twenty years. H.? used to often when Lilian was an infant at her breast, and the long gone echo is still sweet in her cars. Of course he does, though; that is understood, as some words are in a well-construct-od sentence. But Ol what a strange, sweet thrill would go through many a wife s breast, MU till ww Vl 11 KUIVMU liiuiij x v stvtj v j though she In? neither young nor handsome, and though her companion be plain, and poor and unrefined, if that soft refrain, "I love you," would again greet her ears from lips once so lavish in their protestations of affection I Do men never think of this? Or, thinking, do they put it from them as a sentiment unworthy maturity and a waste of fondness on the object under consideration? When the leaves fell that autumn Lilian Grt y left the old homestead, the happy bride of a man in every respect worthy of her love, and well ofl' for this world's bounty. Perhaps it was the sweetest drop in Miriam Grey's cup of existence when she saw her thus happily mated, and knew that for her heart's darling there were not the bitter years of drudgery in store that had been her mother's portion. Such is the love of a mother. The other children were boys. They would, at least, never tread in her own troubled footsteps. After her daughter's marriage the unmitigated burden of the care of the whole house fell upon her already shrinking shoulders. Her husband did not notice that her step grew each day a little slower and more irresolute; that she stooped a little lower over the wash-board and ironing-table; or that her nights were often vexed with pains and aches, that were in themselves the advance guard of the oncoming forces of disease and dissolution. But the time came when the unwelcome truth was forced upon him, that a girl was needed to assist in the household cares an original idea with him, and one tnat found expression only when Miriam Grey wa3 prostrated on a bed of sickness, from which it was doubtful if she would ever rise again. The slow winter mouth, dragged by, and it was not till early spring that she was able to sit at the board and take her meals with the rest of the family. The long fever had left her, but in its stead, as an equivalent, remained a hacking, wearing cough, that sounded hollow and terrible in the bleak spring nights, when she sat up alone from sheer inability to lie down and share the untroubled repose of her husband. What were her emotions, what her visions, retrospective and prospective, in those midnight watches? God alone knows. Perhaps the thoughts of a not-distant day of emancipation were in themselves compensa tory for loss of slumber. 1 have only told you of one year of a life, the last, saddest year, in which Miriam Grey finished her work. Again it is spring, again the spring sunshine floods the heavens with translucent glory, again the sweet airs find their way into the kitchen windows at farmer Grey's, but Miriam Grey is not there at her post. A funeral cortege winds up the hillside, the fresh, green earth opens it3 arms to another weary child. There are heard the old familiar sounds of weeping and lamenta-
tion from Lilian Grey and her orphaned gayety of attire, and provide numberless and brothers, and they go away, and the church- essy ways and means lor reviving those hisyard gate is closed, and the birds resume toric beauties of dress that made other cen-
their nest-building in tne trees tnat wave above the erassy mounds. The shackles have fallen off from the weary limbs; for the sleepless nights and days of nurrying toil the blessed sleeper shall find abundant reparation, for here "He giveth His beloved sleep." And John ureyf lie win miss ner, ot course the tears that fell from his eyes have at least the virtue of sincerity, though they be few in number It is a mysterious dispensation of Providence at least so says the minister, and he must submit. It does not occur to him that he goaded her on with whip and spur of unremitted toil, till the overwrought machiney gave way, and death, the great emancipator, asserted his prerogative in terse language. lie does not know that he killed her!

The Moravian Way of Keeping Acre" In Order. Gojl's Lancaster Correspondence of the Boston Transcript On the occasion of a death in tho community a trombone choral is sounded from the church belfry, and any Moravian in Litiz can ten at once lrom tne air wnicn is played whether the person just dead be married or unmarried, male or female, old or voung. lho Moravian music is all ot a solid character and the trombone plays an important part in their religious exercises On a gentle rise of ground south of the vil läge is the graveyard. The inclosure is divided by straight avenues of cedars, which separate the graves of the women from those of the men. Indeed, tho grave are class ficd as Moravian congregations wcro for merly. In one place one finds the rows of graves where the unmarried men are buried, next the married and then the boys under twelve. A similar arrangement exists on the women's side of the "God's Acre." The mounds are of two sizes, one size for adults and one for children, and are of an oblong shape and flat on top and a small tombstone lies upon the mound. At a little distanco the tombstones are invisible and one sees only long rows of green mounds overrun with periwinkle and moss pinks. The stones are all numbered and the highest number I observed was 958.
CLOTHED IN AVIIITE.
Bf JOSEPH VEREY. Clothed In white a happy child at play, Oer face all radiant as the hues of morning With fairy step she trod; A creature lovely as the flowers ot May, Who could bewitch us with her childish scorning, Or rule as with a nod. Clothed iu white with blossoms in her hair, A maiden whom to love appeared a duty A spell aronud her hung; A sense of all that Nature makes most fair. That filled with rapture all who watched ber beanty, Or heard her silver tongue. Clothed in white she heard the wedding-chime, Blushing beneath her crown of orange-flowers, As her soft answer flows Like music, with no prescience of the time When o'er her life, which love so fondly dowers, The shadowy grav- will close. Clothed in white- her form we seem to see Shine in the glory of new existence, Defying Time and night. And from all earth-born memories set free. While we, like travelers toiling in the distance, Yearn for the coming light. THE FASUIONS. Surtouts and Coats. 1 1n surtout and the rcdingote are as certain to come back to us from time to time as do spring and summer; and though their ro appearance is not so frequent, they siro almost, if not altogether, as welcome when they havi returned. This year the coat and the surtout are equally in favor. They are no more rivals than the hat and the bonnet, because each one has its times and seasons and distinct accessories. The surtout forms a complete overdress, beneath which draperies and overskirts may bo worn if desired, though they are not requisite. This fact is suggestive of possible economies in dress fabrics, and should be taken into consideration when deciding between a coat and a surtout model. The surtout displays the curves of the figure handsomely. There i3 a charm in the simplicity of its shape, and an artistic expression in its deft displays of under colors. The skirts of the surtout of to-day are invariably open at the seams, and of course it must be lined; and it is to its linings, almost as much as to its outlines, that we owe the delight which it affords. Its grace of form and charm of colors must, however, be properly combined to win our admiration. The coat is the counterpart of the surtou in certain characteristics. Its gayest hue are almost as invariably upon the outside, a they are upon the inside of the surtout. The coat may be cut from Indian cashmere webbings, or even from Oriental shawls them selves, or from other brocaded woolens, j v vraaa w v w&vt Mava u ' 'V aaau. printed wools, chintzes, foulards or printed cottons with rich and brilliant drifts of dye upon them. The attractions of color on the surtout are shown in a different manner. The exterior is seldom, if ever, made of any other than sober fabrics, such as leaf browns, copper browns, dull gendarme blues, navy blues, blacks, etc., but its brilliant skirt linings, which stir and show themselves in every motion and pose of the wearer, are sure to be displayed in artistic glimpses. The entire costume may be a3 quiet a3 the garb of a Lady Jacobin; but the linings of the surtout illuminate and transform it into a festal garment without in the least suggesting gaudiness. The 3urtout itself will long remain a favorite with persons of taste. There are two new models for it; one is longer than the other, and both are cutaway below the waist, so that the front breadth of the skirt, which is at present the ono possessing the largest share of decoration, will have a proper opportunity of leing displayed. The collar and cuffs may be made ot the lining goods, but it is rather more in keeping with prevailing sentiments to cut them from the surtout goods. Brown summer cloths, French or Indian cashmeres, light-textured serges, albatross cloths, French buntings and other suit geod3 are chosen in any of the street colors, either light or dark, and the linings are of satin de Lyon, taffetas, satin armures, chintz foulards or brocades. If the outside goods be dark, then the linings may be gay, and as light as one chooses; but light surtouts will have darker linings con trasts that are effective being the study of the surtoutmaker. With ieaf-brown outsides, the linings are Indian or Venetian reds cardinals or lupine browns. Dark blues have old gold, light blues or claret. Greens display old gold, Venetian reds or tud-i'iois blues. Black surtouts may be lined w!',h any favorite and becoming color, while ea.h and all of the outer shades approved by fashion may be lined with brocades or chintzes, with Oriental combinations of tints in their textures. "The buttons are among the important acces sories, and they should selected with reference to the color of either the surface or the lining. They may be of steel or silver, either wrought, polished or oxidized; of gold in all gradations of metallic tints; of carved or painted pearl in wh'te, gray or irridescent hues cr polished woods in all shades, with enamrls in artistic devices. Any of these can be used, or, if preferred, painted, silkcovered ones may take their place. The dress skirt worn with the surtout resembles the latter, while the skirt that accompanies tho coat is seldom of the same color, even less often like it in fabric. The and two st les produce much picturesqueness and tunes the delight or painters and poets, One 6urtout overdress is single-brcastea. has high hip-pockets, lowside-form seams, turnback cutis and a standing collar. It is cut away in front to display the center gore or plastron of the dress-skirt, and each of its seams is left open up to near the waist-line, thus providing nve openings through which to catch glimpses of the pretty colors of its lining. Its edges are bound, faced and pressed, or perhaps ornamentally stitched. when fancy silk cords of the shade of the outside or intermingled with lining colors are not added to its edges. Cords with curious tassels are among the leading novelties of the season, and . whether they be tied in a knot with loops at the tops of each of the surtout skirt openings, or onlv at tne two at wnicn coat-nne buttons are usually added, the effect is as elegant as A A 1. A A . 1 1 these cordelles are fashionable. The larger surtout or surtout overdress model is doublebreasted, and ha3 a most becoming rolling collar, inen mere 13 a dress coat model. with deep, broad swallowtails, that are added uy a tmvcu scaiu wuicu cahjiius entirely about the flguro and forms a deeD a deep basqu front. It has a rolling and standing collar. and the quaintest and prettiest of large pocket laps at tho back. This new and beautifully shaped coat model is ii. tended for brocades with plain linings, or for suit goods with gay linings, it will be a favorite for coatings also, to wear when traveling or on sea voyages; and in such instances its lin ings must be of serviceable hues to endure dust, brushes and sponging. Ihe vest is not by any means in disfavor. but is often worn as a separate garment, to be laid aside at will, and to change at pleasure from simple pique to brocade, or em broidered or painted satin. children's fashions. For steady service there is doubtless noth ing that can improve upon dark blue flannel. and this i3 the reason why, summer after summer it is called into requisition: and while cambrics are bought because they are pretty, and ginghams because they will wash, and white piques because children always look "dressed" in them, the great stand-bys and the only dresses in which the children are cverseen are the darkblue flannels which were bought for rough usage. This year the newest flannel suits are perfectly plain. The skirts are made into one, the blouse waist is belted in and there is a All square collar cut deep upon the back. the heavy white braid has been got rid of, and the dresses are much lighter in weight and much more stylish, as well as suitable, r in consequence. The gabrielle dresses still show the flat white trimming in
small quantities, but the suits that is, those of the newest cut and style are destitute of it, and much improved in consequence. The rage for little children up to four years of age is for white white dresses, white sacks, white coats, white hats; the material for the coats and sacks is a white summer cloth, with a little white silk mixture, and
the trimming is white torchon lace, or needle work. The effect of the lace on the wool is exceedingly pretty, very soft and very becoming to blonde infants of two years and there abouts. The dresses worn underneath them are of the gabrielle style, and are made almost wholly of very fite cross tucking and needlework. Boys' suits, after they reach an age at which they patronize the tailor, show little change. Their dress then begins to take on the permanent simplicity and usefulness of that of the man. NC TES. Point Clair is a new loom-made lace re sembling Mechlin in the pattern, but coarser in fabric. It is used principally for lingerie and millinery purposes. Passementerie 'fangs" or brandebourgs of black and the prevailing cloth colors take the place of the oxidized and other classes of cloak clacps so long in use. Horseshoe buttons of black and transparent pearl are cut in such high rolief that the transparent part of the pearl serves as a foundation for the shoe, which is of the black, while the foundation is invisible at a distance. "Adjutant" eords of heavy basket-woven black silk, with knots woven in at intervals and clusters of large cut jets strung between the knots, are used as loops over the shoulder, on the sleeve near the hand and across the breast. Autumn leaves in metal, showing all the bright variations of hue observable at that season of the year, are brought out for millinery. Sometimes the stem is of jet, and a large jet bead is placed where the three leaves unite. Again, a long slender autumn leaf of metal is without admixture of jet, but seems a pretty adjunct to be used for fastening wl or attaching a scarf or tie at thi cucu a a sha throat, that likely it may be diverted from the original purpose and so employed, while tne nrst-named devices ot three smaller leaves connected by jet, may likewise be regarded as a pretty shawl or scarf pin.

ficult also to adapt to different costumes, and this it is that renders them objectionable. Sealskin leather, as well also as alligator skin, continues in great favor for the making of bags to bo worn at the side; the belt being of course in keeping. For the latter, in the way of fastenings, nothing is liked so wll as straps, and the usual widths are from an inch and a half to three inches, the latter being the widest limit. In alligator skin belts, the contrast between the outside and inside is great, for while the former presents that harsh, wrinkled appearance with which we are familiar, the insidi is daintily covered with soft satin. For such purpose, the old gold shades are chiefly in vogue, and it may be added that the bags of latest manufacture are also lined with old-gold satin giving a fres-h proof of the partiality shown these sjecial colors. Little bags, to be carried in the hand, are also made of sealskin leather or alligator skin. They look like miniature sachels, five inches being the accepted width at the top, and are similarly provided with inside pockets. Some are made with a gusset on the lower part. This has been a bad theatrical season in the French Provinces. Performances in Brest, Lyons and Sedan have generally been followed by bankruptcy.

From January 1 until December 31 it will I conducted as a newspaper, written in the Enlish language, aud printed for the people.. Asa newspaper, The 8hn belier in getting all th ii"ws of the world promptly, and presenting it in the moei Intelligible shape the shape that will enableita readers to kwp well abreast of the age with the least nnpraductire expenditure of the time. The greatest interest to the greatest number that Is, the law controlling its daily make-up. It now has a circulation Tery much larger than that of any other American newspaper, and eujoys an income which it is at all times prepared to sueod liberaUr for the benefit of its readers. People of all conditions of life and all wars of thinking buy and read The 8c; and they all de rive satisfaction of some aort from it columns, for they keep on buying and reading it. in its comment on men and affairs. Tri 8dm be. lieTfs tbat the only guide of policy should be common sense, inspired hr renulne American nrinciDlcs and backed by honesty of purpose. For this reason it is, and will continue to be. absolutely independent oi pari, riais, clique, organisation, or interest. It is for all, but of none. It will continue to praise what is good and reprobate what is evil, taking care that its language is to the point and plain, beyond the possibility of being misunderstood. It Is unin. fluenced by motives that do not appear on the surface, it haa n opinion to sell, save those which may be had by any purchaser for two cents. It bates injustice and rascality even more than it hates unnecessary words. It abhors frauds, pities fools, and deplores nincompoops of every species. It will continue throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first class, instruct the second, and discountenance the third. All honest convictions, whether sound or mistaken, are its friends. And The Sun makes no bones of telling the truth to its friends and about its friends whenever occasion arises for plain speaking. These are tho prieeipl upon which the The Scn wilt be conducted during the year to come. The year 180 will be one in which no patriotic American ran afford to close his eyes to public affairs. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of the political events which it has in store, or the necessity of resolute vigilance on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Government that the founders gave us. The debates and acts of Congress, the utterances of the press, the exciting contests of the Republican and Democratic parties, now nearly equal in strength throughout the country, the varying drift of public sentiment, will all bear directly and effectively npon the twenty. fourth Presidential ejection to be beld in November. Four years ago next November the will of the nation, as expressed at the polls, was thwarted by an abomniable conspiracy, the promoters and beneficiaries ol which still hold the offices they stole. Will the crime of 1876 be repeated in 1830? The past decade of years opened with a corrupt, extravagant, and Insolent Adiministration intrenched at Washington. The Scn did something towards dislodging the gang and breaking Its power. The same men are now intriguing te restore their leader and themselves to placet from which they weie driven be the indignation of the people. Will they succeed? The coming years will bring the answers to these momentous questions. The Sun will be on hand to chronicle the facts as l hey are developed, and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly In their relations to expediency and right. Thus, with a habit of philosophical good humor in looking at the minor affairs of life, and in great things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights of the people and the principles of the Constitution against all aggressors, The Svx is prepared to write a trnthful, instructive, and at the same time entertaining history of 1880 Our rates of subscription remain unchanged.
