SEVEN YEARS OLD. BY A. C. STTINBCKSE.

Seven white roses on one tree, Seven white loaves of blameless leaven, beven white sails on one soft sea. Seven white swans on one lake's lee. Seven white flower-like stars in Heaven, All are types nnmeet to be For a birthday's crown of seven. Not the radiance of toe roses. Not the blessing of the bread. Not the breeze that ere day grows is Fresh for sails and swans, and closes Wings above the sun's jrrave spread, When the starshine on the snows is Sweet lis sleep on sorrow shed. in. Nothing sweetest, nothing best. Holds so good and sweet a treasure As the love wherewith once blest Joy prows holy, grief takes rest. Life, half-tired with hours to measure, Fills his eyes, and lips, and breast. Wita most light and breath of pleasure. IV. As the rapture unpolluted. As the pission undetiled. By whose force all pains heart-rooted Are transfigured and transmuted. Recompensed and reconciled. Through the imperial, undisputed. Present godhead of a child. V. Brown, bright eyes, and fir, bright head. Worth a worthier crown than this is. Worth a worthier song Instead, Sweet, grave, wise, round mouth, full led With the joy of love, whose bliss is More than mortal wine and bread. Lips whse words arc sweet as kisses, VI. Little hands so glad of giving. Little heart so glad of love. Little soul so glad of living. Whiie the strong, swift hours are weaving Light with darkness woven above. Time for mirth and time for grieving. Plume of raven and plume of dove, VII. I can give you but a word Warm with love thereiu for leaven, I'ut a song that falls unheard Yet on ears of sense unst:rred Yet by song so far from Heaven, Whence you came, the brightest bird. Seven years since, of seven times seven. The Athenreum. CARRIE'S FREAK. lit. Lonia Republican. The lights flash'., music lent its voluptu ous swell, graceiui teet tripped in joyous cadence, and flushed cheeks and beating hearts made still more attractive h scene of le iv happiness. A brilliant Hsemblaco had found it-elf under the hospitable riof ot tho wealthiest banker f tho city, and bentitv shone und wit sparkled at the gayest reunion of the season. In ono of the inter vals of the dance a proposition was made to vary the en'ertainment and was warmly re ceivd, and th question was asked: "What shall it be?" A scuie ot t.roposala was made, but all contemptuously rejected a- too childish or too tame, wnen the clear voice of Carrie Barton rai.c out io jovous tones: "Let in have a wedding." She wa3 the reigning belle of the city and the acknowledged beauty of the surrounding country, and richly did she deserve these high positions, from her radiant loveliness of person, her high culture and her sweetness of disposition. Everybody Joved her for her many virtues and pardoned the unceasing flow of animal spirits that would occasionally a?sume the form of positive tccentricity. Her father had died, leaving her an heire-s; she was the idol of her mother and the patron genius of half the unobtrusive chanties of the town Her presence was everywhere welcomed, and a score oi gentlemen present would have gone wild with joy just for one look of preference from her eyes that upon the subject of love alone w re friendless and unpitying. 'Let us have a wedding," she exclaimed. A genera! outturst of approval followed these word?, and many a proposal, half in earnest and half in jest, was made and laughingly declined or evaded, until a pause ensued which deepened into profound silencj. " "Carrie," exclaimed several of her friends, 'you proposed this diversion and you'll have to set us the example." "Well," returned the wayward beauty, I shall not disappoint you, though your cowardice do not deserve such a reward, and I consent to sacrifice myself for the public good." "Who shall he be?" was the general inquiry. In an instant twenty gentlemen sprang tor ward, each anxious to share the immolation, but were arrested by the laughing command and uplifted finger of the merry girl: "Hold on, gentlemen! I cannot marry you all, and I hope none of you will be offended at the result of my choice, whatever that may be, for 1 shall avail myself of my leap-year privilege. Gentlemen of the forlorn hope, stand up!" In an instant every man was on his feet. "Now," said the joyous beauty, with mock gravity, "I'll present to you my lord and master. S;cp forward, Mr. Henry Iverson. and submit to your fate. Nay, nay, hold on, sir. and don't be so impatient; for, Mr. Harry, if you for one moment think that this thing will justify you in the faintest hope of this position in the future you can resume your place. I have selected you from this gallant crowd because you are a comparative stranger and from a distant state, to which I hear you soon propose to return; and I desire yu to tell our friends in Georgia that Missouri holds one madcap who commits noihing but follies, utters nothing but nonsense, and has added one more to her mad extravagances. Now, my liege lord, are you ready?" Almost beside himself with joy even at this unflattering notice, the young man took he profiered hand. Now, who will marry us?" continued the audacious girl, her whole face glowing with the animation ot her imperial beauty. "Judge Buckner is in the next room," suggested one of the company. "Call him in then," said the future bride, but before he arrives, 1 will appoint my bridesmaids and form them is. procession. D you Alice, and Margaret, and Louise select the groomsmen, and precede the happy pair in the order of your nomination. There that '11 do. That's all right. Now move on." The Judge was standing at the end of the room and seemed to enter into the sport as keenly as any of the gay crowd around him, and after a slight delay proceeding with the marriage service. The usual questions were asked and answered amid peals of laughter, which prevented the solemn tones of judicial authority from being noticed. The ceremony was over and the dance resumed. No one left the house that night in higher spirits than the bride of the revel. CHAPTER II. Henry Iverson was the son of a wealthy Georgia planter, of high social position, and of oüicial standing in that State. His son, Henry, a recent graduate of the University of Virginia, had been on a visit to his many relatives in Missouri, and would leave for his home in the morning. He had made during bis visit hosts of friends by his uniform 'conduct as a gentleman, and gained their respect by hjs attainments as a scholar. On the morning of his departure, he called on Judge Buckner who had been his partial host, to say farewell. When do you leave, Harry?'' asked the Judge. 1 shall leave on the noon train." 'I?" inquired his friend. "Yes, I. What do you mean 7" Don t you intend to take your wife with you?" My wife?" said the startled Georgian. 'Yes," gravely answered the Judge Your wife, who was until last night Miss Carrie Barton, and to whom you were married by me then, at Mr. Kenton's party." 'Oh," laughed Harry, "that was all fun; a sham wedding, got up for a little amusement I thought you understood it, as we all

did. Of course I'll not take my wife along, as I have no wife." "Harry," solemnly interposed the magistrate, "you are as lawfully married as if ur own bishop had officiated, and you, of course, can not go home to-day." The youne: Southerner stood er tranced, chained to the spot, with eyes dilated, and his breath suspended under the influence of

surprise. Oh, Ueaven!" he at length exclaimed. is mis truer "As true, Harry, as the Heaven you invoke," returned the Judge. '4In Missouri no marriage license is required, and all that the law asks is proof to the satisfaction cf the minister or officer officiating, that the parties are of the requisite age, and that no lawful impediment exists. In this case I had personal knowledge that the law was Satisfied, and now no power on earth can separate you, except a divorce, to be granted by a Court ofc.mpetent ji.riedktion, and you know that neither of you havo sufficient ground for a petition to that effect." 'Oh, mercy!" exclaimed the really unhappy gentleman, ''what t-hall I do! How shall I ever appear be'ore Miss Carrie aain! She will think me a confederate in an outrage, though, Judge, you know that I never dreamed of the matter at all. except as a madcap lroiic of hers. 7 "That may be as you say," interrupted the masistrate, ''but don't call bcr Miss Carrie unless you wish to give her in future that term of endearment. In truth, Harry, I ought to have refused to solemnize this marriage. 1 intended to carry on the joke awhile and then soundly scold you both for your tri Hing with the la aBd .your con tempt for one of the higmst ordinances of our Church. But as I proceeded I thought mat you were eminently fitted lor each other. You had told me how madly you Joved that noble and beautiful girl. Per haps I ought to have colded you both, but who can scold that madcap saint : o, liar ry, you must remiia hero and try to per suade your wife to love you. On my word, my dear boy, 1 warmly congratulate vou on the result of this silly frolic, but think tbat you will have some trouble in the matter of her consent V ell, .Judge, ot course 1 shall remain here, but what do you advise mo to do?" said the bridegroom, while his cheek flushed with a hope wonur.uIy mingled with fear, 'I will call on Carrie," replied Judge Buckner. "explain to her the situation of thinsr and ak for vou an interview." True to his word, the tun Stritte called on Carrie. When they weie seated in her mother's parlor he turned to her and said to htr gravely: 'Carrie, I bring you eome news that per haps you may consider unwelcome." Is my nm'.her ill? asked the excited girl. "Ao." "Is my uncle, my guardian, well?" Yes: fortunately I have no death news: but I come to you to speak of that wild frtak of yours last night." "Y hat lreak?' inquired the artless girl, in whose memory there lingered very little trace of the evening's fun, and certainly no trace of a wrong that deserved a cold. "Your marriage," sa:d her fiiend. '"What! that sham ceremony?' and the merry girl's fa?e lit up with rippling laughter. "Well, what is it?" "It is no sham marriage, Carrie, but vou have bound yourself bv a tie that the law pronounces indissoluble." Impossible!" replied the tnrl. "Why. Judge, you know that it was all in fun, und I am jure that no law. human or divine, will recognize a tie that was simply the creature of the merest sport. I expected a scold, but I did not expect you to look so grave about it." lou will remember, Cime, that vour replies to my questions were given in words that implied, nay, expressed, your fullest consent; that you both were of lawful age to bo married; that no legal impediment existed, and that really the parties are verywell suited. .Now ." The face cf the poor girl had flushed an 1 paled alternately during the delivery of this address. Suddenly springing to her leet. she interrupted the official and exclaimed in a loud tone and with hashing eye, but with extreme dignity: "And dare you say this to m! Have you lent yourself to this fraud and to this out rage upon a poor unprotectei girl? You who profess to have been a friend of ray father and still profess friendship for my self and my mother? Shame upon you, sir, shame upon your manhood. If these things that you tell are true, then you have prosti tuted the law and vour high office to the basest of frauds and the oppression of inno cence. I have done a thousand tbinjrs more wild than this, and if you have not approved them by your smile, you have always given me? when you thought I deserved it, agentle and loving rebuke. But now I tor what C4use I know not. vou have used vour authority to torture a heart that has never had for you but the purest feeling of the most affectionate love. You have proved yourself unworthy ot your high position. Is that man Mr. I vers n a confederate of yours in thi infamy? If so, tell him for me, that he is unworthy of his pure lineage, that he has degraded himself as a gentleman, and that he has forfeited the respect of all honorable people. For shame upon you both; there is the door, sir, take it. It is closed icrever against you and him, two such contemptibl forms of degraded manhood." And before the astonished official could say one word in justification or arrest her departure, she had left the room with all the contemptuous dignity of her majestic beauty. CHAPTER III. "When Mrs. Barton returned home and the friends of the family had consulted about the matter, the seriousness of the situation wa admitted, and also that the law, as de clared bv Judge Buckner, was correctly stated. His conduct was denounced as utterly inexplicable and infamous, but Carrie was quietlv advised to make the best of the matter and tbat the match was one not un worthy of her, but the proud and deeply offended beauty was obdurate. No remonstrance nor entreaties could induce her to e Harry Iverson, or to read his letters, and the poor fellow, more madly in love than ever, and keenly alive to the sufferings and hopes of his singular situation, still lingered around ,he hpme.-cf his idolized wife. His crueVp5ittfoükipt him alot f from society and his sole employment was to write impassiorielterälohis idol and to watch her whenever' Vhe'chknced to walk abroad on some mis'siorj 'of 'mercy. For, like himself, Carrie had now no relish for social pleasures. Her gayety was gone, and she had no thought of re-entering a circle in which she would meet with strange glancos and hear unfeeling speeches. And yet she would not permit her situation to interfere with her charities. Accompanied by a faithful domestic she would go out on each successive evening for the alleviation of human misery that now seemed to have the only claim upon her attention. In the meantime Harry's mo'hel, who had been duly informed by ber son of his condition, came ostensibly on a visit to her friends in Missouri, and vainly sought an interview with the offended wile. "With Mrs. Barton she had no trouble, and the Georgia mother was exceedingly anxious to bring the affair to a favorable issue, not only because she heard nothing but praise of the young girl, but also because her son's love had deepened into despair and had affected his health. At last Carrie consented to an interview with her husband, as she understood that he and his mother would return to Georgia the next morning. She sent him word that she would meet him alone as she returned from one of her suburban charitie, but that would be the last time that they would ever meet. .. At the hour set sne met him as coldly as

if he had been a stranger. He attempted to take her hand, but she withheld it, saying: You can say to me, Mr. Iverson, what you intend to say at that distance. If you attempt to lessen it, 1 shall consider our interview at an end. Proceed now, sir." The poor fellow was completely crushed, and commenced: Miss Carrie, I wish to speak to you about that marriage at Mr. Kenton's house." Stop right there, Mr. Iverson. I have permitted no one to speak to me about that wretched affair, and will not hear anything about it from you. But as we shall not

meet again, i win say this to you: lo expiate a simple folly that has been tortured into an infamous claim, I have made up my mind to retire from the world, and have made application to be enrolled as a Sister of Mercy in that Episcopal order at St, Louis. I have been accepted and I shall enter upon my new duties next week, and I thus hope to atone for a simple act of folly by a J ite devoted to the great cause of Chris tian mercy. 1 leave society without a pang of regret. I have not told any one, not even my mother, of my plans, nor shall I. I tell you this because it is somewhat in the light of a dutv. lou may mention it tu not as you please, but my intention is una! terable." hat is it, mv dear?" she said t a lit tle girl who had followed her from the cottage. 'Mother sent me with your red shawl that you forgot," said the child. 'Tell her, darling, to keep it for my sake, for I shall not need any more gay colors." . And gently placing the flashy garment on the shoulders of the child, she turned to poor Harry and said: "Good evening, Mr. Iverson, I wish you a pleasant trip to your home,-' and passed n. The wretched lover-husband remained rooted to the spot, utterly crushed. He would bavefollowxl her but he knew thRt she would not listen to him; but he li-tenea in another direction to scream after scream of terror, and as le turned he saw the peas ant girl with the shawl still around her shoulders, running in an agony of fright from a mad bull, that, irritated by the fcarlet color, had rushed to trample under horn and hoof the wearer and the garment. All the chivalry of the young Southerner was aflame in an instant, and, hastening at full speed toward the terrified and flying child, he la seizea ner in nis arms ana tnrew ner over I the fence towards which sho was hastening. It was none too soon for tho child, but her deliverer received in his side the horn of the maddened brute. Tho farious animal, not seeing the object of his rage, contented himself with having the helpless form before him, but was easily driven off by one or two men who were returning home from their work. The screams of the child had reached the ears of Carrie also, and sho was soon at tho spot of the disaster. Directing the men to take up the bodv cirefully she eagerly felt the pulse of the unfortunate gentleman, and satisfied herself that lifa was not extinct. A few drops of blood, but Carrie's handker chief soon stopped the effusion. Go John," she said to one of tho men. "tell Dr. "Williams to meet me at once at .1 . 1TV.-1 J 1 . me v ntrai iioiei, ana ao vou two make a litter of this shawl and bring the bjjy after me. Now, don't make a lalse step. Now, move srentlv." Carrie was evidentlv learning to succor the unfortunate Dr. Williams was readv. and after a careful examination prcnounced the patient in a dangerous condition. "If no internal hemorrhage sets up," he said, "be may recover. His temperate habits and his youth are in his favor. But he must be kept from any excitement, remain as quiet as possible, and, with good nursing, I hope fr the best. Where shall we find a proper nurse?" Here," said Carrie, firmly. "I will be his nurse; and I shall remain with him until he recovers if God so will it." And she quietly took her seat by the bedside. In a few moments Mrs. Iversen arrived and was met at tLe door by Carrie, who, with finger on her lip. said in a whisper: "I am Carrie, of whom you have heard so much. Your son is alive, and will possibly recover with quiet and good nursing. I am here as his nurse and shall -remain here until as long as I am needed. Don't ay anything but go in as gently as you can." And tho mother and the wile took their seats at opposite sides of tho bed. The, illness was long and accompanied by delirium. The patient recognized no one, but constantly muttered "Carrie, my darling, my wifa. She charged mewi'.h infamy. Oh! God, if she only knew how I love her Carrie I infamy 1" At last tho crisis of his disorder was re-iched, and Dr. Williams announced that if the anodyne would result in a sound sleep, and the patient should awake in perspiration and concious, his recovery would only bo a question of time and nursing. The two nurses took their usual places at the bedside and watched the result with intense solicitude. Hours passed and hope had almost vanished, when the soft hand of Carrie detected the slightest moisture on the brow of the sufferer. It continued to increase until it broke forth in copiousness, and the patient openintr his eyes, now clear and placid, exclaimed: Mother"! In an instant his hand was in hers, and an irrepressible flood of tears spoke the rapture of her heart and her gratitude vo God. "Mother," he said, after a few moments' rest, "I thought, perhaps I was dreaming, that there was another hand on my brow just before I waked. Was I dreaming, mother?" No, Harry, you wore not dreaming. But 1 will tell ycu all about it when you get better." Harry's recovery was rapid. No allusion was made to the past, and only family affairs and his return home were talked of. At last, one morning, a tap at the door was heard, and a lady in full black entered. Harry's face flushed srimson, for the instinct of love could nt bo deceived. "Harry," said the lidy as, advancing to the bed, she remrved her veil, "Harry, I have come to claim you as my husband. Gi d his punWbed mo, through you, for my folly, and taught me my duty. I witne sed your heroic courage in saving the life of the poor child, and at your bedside I have learned the diep devotedness of your love to me, and f mnd my path of duty. Vie will separate no more. Are you willing?" A flood of grateful tears bedewed his cheeks as he raised his attenuated arms and sobbed, "Kiss me my darling wife."

LINCOLN1. Dedicated to the pilgrims visiting Lincoln's tomb on the nineteenth anniversary of the emanci--pation proclamation, Springfield, 111.. September 22. 1881, by Dr. C. T. Corliss, of Indianapolis. Ind. Read by Hon. John S. Hlnton, of the Indiana Legislature. We have come, fellow-men. of a dark-hued raceOu a pilgrimage to the last resting place Of him who, in life, was a friend to the slave.

Muuse uioriai remains mi a martyr s grave. We have come from the East, the North. South anc est, A disenthralled people, no longer oppressed But free as the air as a bird on the wine To this hallowed shrine our oblations we briup. Four millions of Freedmen to-day swell the song; i ne Diue vault oi ueaven its ecnoes prolong. rrom the gulf to th5 lakes, from the lakes to the sea, The shackles have fallen the Brother is free. The crack of the slave-whip no longer is heard. And hearts no more sicken, while hope is deferred uc nme-pt'u auu auction diocie never snail be Erected again in this land of the free. Lincoln, the iiod-like, the friend of ounace, W ith a stroke of his pen did forever efface That foul blot, so long our derision and shame. And carved for himself an immortal name A name that shall live throughout all coming time, Unbounded by country, bv language or clime. ureat-grandchildren's children, as years roll around. Shall pilgrimage make to this hallowed ground; And he whom we honored, what tho he be dead, W hat tho' the spirit forever has fled. Our fond recollection time can not efface of Lincoln, the savior and friend of our race. He blushed when he thought of the deep-burning Miame That slavery brought on Columbia's fair name, And the proudest day of his life was when He struck off the chains from four millions of men. from the depths of our hearts, for this precious boon, Let f-ongs of thanksgiving our voices attune; Let gratitude trom these dark temples arise Like incense from altars, whose flame never dies. If ever beatified spirits descend And with those mortals in harmonv blend. The spirit of Lincoln is with us to-day. io cnarm all our fears ana our sorrows away. So long as the Freedinan inhabits this zone, rnuantnropist, statesman, ana sage, all in one We'll hail him. the greatest, the wisest the best. Who sleeps in yon "windowless palace of Rest." CONCERNING WOM IN, SHE TIIOCfJIIT A THINK. The evening star in vesper lamp Above the west had lit, Th dn.ky curtains of the nfght Were folio wca over it. He seized her waist and clasped her hand And told his tale of love: He called her every tender name, "My darling," duck" and "dove." A tremor shook her fairy form. Her eves began to blink; Her pulse rose to a hundred, and fche cried: "I think I think " He sighed: "You think you love me?' for His soul was on the rack, "Oh, no!" she yelled; "I think a bug Is crawling down my back!" New Or eans Times Fluffy hair is again restored to favor. IUack satin ulsters are worn over black silk dresses. Fanchon and Normandy styles are the favorites for breakfast caps. Women with long stick-like arms should not wear tialit long sleeves. A handsome German girl came 4,000 miles to see her lover, and became a bride, in Lewiston, Me., a few days ago. She came from Hamburg, Germany,"across the ocean, arriving in Lewiston last week. Her husband is a smart young German-American, and the two are the happiest of the happy A Haptist lady of Chicago spent several days at :i "resort" on the seashore where Mr. Robert Ingersoll and his family were staying, and found them very pleasant and agreeable people. On taking leave Mr. Ingersoll said: "I am very happy to have met you; we have spent pleasant days together. I hope we shall meet again; if not in this world, then in Boston!" William Wilson emraged himself to marry Susan Southwell at Ogden, Utah, and among his gifts were a sewing-machine and a cabinet organ. Her parents forbade the union, and told him to take away his presents, but he delayed doing so until he was married to another girl, and then when lie cal ed, Susan gave him such a thrashing that recovery is doubtful. A story comes to in from Bloomington, Allegheny County, Md.. to the effect that a few days fgo a freight engineer on the Haiti- t more and Olno Kail road had a "falling out with his sweetheart, who lived at or near that place, and that the damsel in revenge oiled the rails on the track in front of her swain's train, which was struggling uu the seventeen-mile grade. It is said to have taken the locomotive proper, the "helier" and several tons of sand to overcome the effects of the girl's strataeem. A lady corresjondent at Saratoga says: "I met a girl at Saratoga who told me that she was trying to fatten herself for bridal. The allianccd hnshand was an admirer of plumpness, and she was rather lean. The amount of oat meal and cream she consumed was marvelous, and she lolled around all day long, refusing to dance even, for fear of working off an ounce of flesh. A month of that kind of treatment increased her weight nine pounds, but it didn't improve her appearance, to my mind, because she had a fat, porky look in her face, and her skin became bad from indigestion. The wiser system commonly adopted by afrianced wives is a plain, nourishing diet, plenty of exercise, and long, regular hours of sleep. These brace her up in health, and an improved appearance is the consequence." Lucy Hoc per, writing from Paris, describes a dinner dress intended for the CoUrt of Stockholm, to be worn at the festival in honor of the marriage of the Crown Prince of Sweden to the Princess Victoria of Baden, the dresses intended for the trousseau of the Princess having been forwarded some time ago. The toilet in question is composed of a long train of pale, fawn-colored satin, brocaded with clusters of chrysanthemums in white and a deeper shade of fawn color. The front of the skirt is in pale, blue satin, crossed with draped piece of plain, fawn-colored satin extending "in a point at the left side of the waist to the depth of about a half a yard, and edged with a deep fringe. The blue satin skirt front is ca jght up at the left side into two deep putTV. extending the whole length of the skirt. The corsage is in fawn-colored satin. A more superb dress, intended for the Queen of Sweden, had a corsage and train of moss-green satin. At the back was full-puffed drapery of a rich and splendid brocade, the pattern large tea-roses in a cherry satin ground. The drapery was continued down each side of the skirt-front, which was in rose-white changeable satin, a new and splendid fabric, thick as a board, and costing $S a yard even on this side of the water. This skirt front was finished at the hem with a single plaited flounce. Uncle Moe went into an Austin Avenue drug store yesterday, and asked: 'What has yer dat's good for a head acbe?" The druggist took down a large bottle of salts of ammonia, or some such stuff, and told Uncle Mose to smell. As it was a free thing he took in a healthy inspiration, that took away his breath. It was ten minutes before he could talk, and when he did say something it was that he would "bust" the druggist's head wide open if he came at him with that bottle again. But how about the headache?" asked the druggist. "How de debbel can I tell ontil I goes home and asks de ole 'ooman. She is de cullud pusson what's got de misery in her head." SOCIETY DIRECTORY.
