’ NOREEN. The morning sun shone in all tta grandeur on the beautiful valley of Callan, but before noon the tide of war ■wept through the valley. The inhabitants of Armagh were standing upon the walls—men, women and chlldrenanxious to ascertain the result of the battle, for many bad friends and relatives engaged In the deadly strife. The distant moaning of cannon borne upon the wind made every heart tremble with fear. After awhile several stragglers from the fight appeared In view, who, on approaching, occasioned a general commotion among the crowd who were desirous of learning the result of the battle. The accounts varied and only served to torture the expectants. Late In the day Information arrived that the British bad been defeated and the whole army put to flight, but this also was contradicted, and the evening closed in uncertainty and terror. At morning’s dawn the same uncertainty and anxiety existed in the town of Armagh. The walls were still crowded with the anxious townspeople, eager to obtain the first intelligence. Some, tired and fatigued with watching, had gone, and their places were filled by others, but there was one, a young woman, who from the first had never left the walls, who sat patiently and motionless, without uttering a word. There was a sadness Tn her fair face, and the quick and successive changing of her countenance as the various reports of the combat met her ear told how much she felt and how deeply she was interested in the safety of some dear friend. All night she had remained sitting upon the spot, which she bad not quitted even for a moment. Her face was pale, and her eyes were dim with Intense watching. It was whispered amoug the crowd that she had formed an attachment for a young soldier in Marshal Bagnal’s army. He had been a kind friend and benefactor to her poor, widowed mother and to her brother a father, for he had by kindness and affection supplied the loss of both. They loved each other tenderly, and the hand of the lovely girl was to be Ills reward. The young man was poor, but sought to gain fortune in the then profitable service of the army, and, though only a private, he had reason to expect promotion. Prudence made them postpone their marriage, but love spoke in a more enforcing language, and they at length determined that they would hear the arguments of prudence after marriage. The lovers were therefore to be united when Marshal Bagnal’s corps entered the town. The patience of the multitude was nearly exhausted when the young woman, who had not before spoken, suddenly clapped her hands, crying:

“A horseman! A horseman!” All gazed, but none could discern iii’ii. The young woman was positive aa.l again cried out: "Look! lie comes! His horse is of a dark color and covered with foam. See! There is a second! Now a third!” All strained their eyes by looking to the place to which She pointed, but no one else could see or hear anything. It Was the opinion of those around that grief and anxiety had impaired her faculties. A minute, however, had scarcely elapsed when they were convinced of the soundness of her mind and the accuracy of her eyes and’ ears. As man mounted on a black horse was seen in the distance, and, as she had stated, covered with foam and approaching at full speed, followed by two other horsemen. Anxiety had sharpened her sight and had given her, so to speak, the instinct of an Indian. When the first horseman was within hearing a thousand tongues inquired the fortune of the day. Noreen spoke not; her bosom heaved heavily, and she leaned eagerly forward to catch the sound that might fall from the horseman’s lips, but he answered them only by signs, which could be distinctly interpreted. The multitude awaited his nearer approach, but the soldier, turning his horse's" head in a southward direction, passed the town and continued his flight The second horseman approached and passed, as the other, to the south, without speaking; the third, who was wounded, slowly advanced, keeping the anxious crowd in painful suspense. But Noreen, whose anxiety was worked up to the highest pitch, exclaimed before the countenance of the traveler could be discerned by those around: “It is lost!. It is lost! And he will tell you so!”

She then wrung her hands In anguish and set up the mournful cry of the Irish for the beloved of their hearts. “All Is lost!” the horseman at length said. “The whole army is destroyed., Few have escaped.” Noreen at this intelligence gave a loud and fearful shriek and sank upon the ground. The bystanders raised her. As sudden Joy often destroys the vital spark, so also does unlooked for misfortune. The mind of the young girl had been on the rack for many hours. Still there was hope, but when this soft passion fled so also flew the spirit from its earthly tenement. The beautiful Noreen was a corpse. For a time the bystanders forgot their sown fate, and, gazing upon the once lovely Noreen, shed a tear over her remains. Not For Him.

A NOTABLE POEM.

Langdem Smith’s “Evolution” Has 1 Been Very Widely Copied. I Langdon Smith, the war correspondent and writer, died a few days .ago at his Brooklyn home. No New York newspaper man was better known than Smith, who could describe, equally well, a battle or a baseball game. But the thing that he wrote that will live the longest —because It is worth while —is his poem “Evolution,” which has been reprinted all over the country. The poem follows: When you were a Tadpole and I was a Fish, v ; ■ In the Paleozoic time, And side by side on the ebbing tide We sprawled through the ooze and slime. Or skittered with many a caudal flip Through the depths of the Cambrian fen, My heart was rife with the joy of life, For I loved you, even then. Mindless we lived and mindless we loved, And mindless at last we died; And deep In the rift of the Caradoc drift We slumbered side by side. The world turned on In the lathe of time. The hot lands heaved amain, Till we caught our breath from the womb of death, And crept into light again. We were Amphibians, scaled and tailed. And drab as a dead man’s hand; We coiled at ease ’neath the dripping trees, Or trailed through the mud and sand, Croaking and blind, with our three-claw-ed feet Writing a language dumb. With never a spark in the empty dark To hint at a life to come. Yet happy we lived, and happy we loved, And happy we died once more; Our forms were rolled in the clinging mold Of a Neocomian shore. The eons came, and the eons fled, <- And the sleep that wrapt us fast Was riven away in a newer day, And the night of death was past. Then light and swift through the jungle trees We swung in our airy flights, Or breathed in the balms of the fronded palms. In the hush of the moonless nights. And oh J what beautiful years were these, When our hearts clung each to each; When life was thrilled and our senses thrilled In the first faint dawn of speech. Thus life by life, and love by love, We passed through the cycles strange, And breath by breath, and death by death. We followed the chain of change, Till there came a time in the law of life When over the nursing sod The shadows broke, and the soul awoke In a strange, dim dream of God.

I was thewed like an Auroch bull. And tusked like the great Cave Bear; And you, my sweet, from head to feet, Were gowned in your glorious hair. Deep in the gloom of a tireless cave, When the night fell o’er the plain, And the moon hung red o’er the river bed, We mumbled the bones of the slain. I flaked a flint to a cutting edge. And shaped it with brutish craft; I broke a shank from the woodland dank. And fitted it, head and haft. Then I hid me close to the reedy tarn, Where the Mammoth came to drink; Through brawn and bone I drave the stone, And slew him upon the brink. Loud I howled through the moonlit waste,Loud'answered our kith and kin; From west and east to the crimson feast The clan came trooping In. O'er joint and grissle and padded hoof We fought and clawed and tore. And cheek by jowl, with many a growl, We talked the marvel o’er. I carved that fight on a reindeer bone With rude and hairy hand. I pictured his fall on the cavern wall That men might understand. For we lived by blood, and the right of might, Ere human laws were drawn. And the age of Sin did not begin Till our brutal tusks were gone. And that was a million years ago, In a time that no man knows; Yet here to-night in the mellow light, ' We sit at Delmonico’s. Your eyes are deep as the Devon springs, Your hair is as dark as jet; Your years are few, your life is new. Your soul untried, and yet— Our trail is on the Kimmeridge clay, And the scarp of the Purbeck flags, Wfe have left our bones in the Bagshot 5 stones, And deep in the Corallne crags; Our love is old, our lives are old. And death shall come amain. Should it come to-day, what man may say We shall not live again?

God wrought our souls from the Tremadoc beds And furnished them wings to fly; He sowed our spawn In the world’s dim dawn, —; ——— And I know that it shall not die. Though cities have sprung above the graves Where the crook-boned men made war, And the ox-wain creaks o’er the buried caves ■ —— —— Where the mummied mammoths are. Then as we linger at luncheon here, O’er many a dainty dish. Let us drink anew to the time when you Were a Tadpole and I was a Fish.
