Pure as a visior in an angel's dreaming,
With laughing lips and eyes of wondrous lustre,
She rises with her locks of sunlight streaming
Where watery pearl-drops cluster.

Float round her form and carefully enfold her,
While through her veil, with momentary pauses,
the smiles on the beholder.
We know not when, amid the boiling torrent,
We find our life stream tortured into madness.
What loveiy sprites from out the gulfs abhorrent
May rise with rainbow gladness.

BEBAAIILE BARBAti AN AtN NLIJsANCE.
While the girl cf the period bas been subhjected
to the ssrsnrm and anathemas .f 'be Saturday Re
r view and its imitators for the last twelvemronth,
singularly enough the boy of the period has es
caped nncerseord. His exemption from criticism
is certainly unaccountable, for he is vastly more
obnoxious than the most obnoxious type of the
much abused girl. The latter is rarely unpleasant
to an unendurable extent, except during th" brief
period of I er transltion from chiildhosd to gir!
hood, when she is ret on rr'ain whither ia:n,
oence requires the unrestraiaed display of her
ankles, or mode.ty dlermand that they should be
exhibited -only through the aid of caretully ar
ranged accidents. At this stage in her existence
the girl it noual!y disagreeably pert, or s:upid:y
bashful, and in e'ther cale is a:most i'variahly an
undesirable ac-qgaintance. But this period is, at
any rae,. a brief one, while the boy Irom his tenth
to his rifle t th year is a et!llful combination of
whatever is aggrevi0usly unugleasant in human
nature.
As a role, he is total!y indifferent to the d stinc.
r tion between truth and falsehood. Tats arises
partly froun the undeveloped state of his moral
facultles, and partly from his iznorance of what is
miesat by honor. lie invarial:y extricates him
sell fre ti dilienlties by lying. aitd is nniformly
ready to acctse sanother of his own misdeeds. He
is cr:l both to his fr low boys and to the de.
fe.eless higher animals that falt within his power.
(irdc':,arly he is dirty, and rlmost invariably he is
rci'e. Apparently be is totally devoid of con.
pcterce, arid were it not for occasional instances
which prove the contrary. we might be justifiud
in tnc h.oing that the boy never bc nrues poes.
Fered ft s arenal sool until he reachrbes theage
of titteen or there-bouta.

-ecselt eas trUtries, and when in the service of the
rlt(, ii t: r (, a ft ai or tish wagen makes the mu
sic 4' the fis. h:rru seem melodious by contrast.
At the opera or theater he is seen in his wicked
tat gah ry. Armed with " books of the opera."
and " frns,a a ubhi he attenots to yell the public
into purn hairng, he drorons the iniusic of the over
tore, and re i kes the audience Ik irward to the
' " ,,,. ~ hen he shall be again let loose upon
them with di-may and horror.
Provided by shameless men with hand bills he
infests tie sidewalk and thrusts h;mself perpetu
aliy between the feet if unfortunate pedestrians,
srd laR-erates the feeling, of cleanly men by tonch
irg thilu with hi. unpieasant hand. Nothing is
sac red to him, and ,he personal features of men
or won en which excite his attention are made the
slt ject of derisive yells. Wrapped in his sublime
selt conceit,. be tht lsts himselt into every place
where his precence is specially undlsirable. He
sits next to us in the s'reet car, and eats apples
ano peanuts in a way that ought to be made a
setatctory i fi use. At church hie arouses our sin
ful passions by his tendency to persistent snifllno,
and at the theater lie disturbs our equanimniy by
talkirg during the important moments of the
Ilay., and hikes us with dust byv applauding at
unseasonable times with his undesirable feet.
In whatever place he may be found, he is never
etheraise than a persistent, intrusive,. and unen
durablr unoa-nce of pecatlar atrocity, and his
prominent slppression is imperiously demanded
I) every instinct of humanity. What means
.hbiuld be employed to bring about this necessary
end. it may not be easy to suggest, but that so
useless a scuurge ought to be deprived of the op.
i-ortuiity to prey longer upon society is a propo
:tion so t If-, vident that few will di-pute. At al
events, we can make a beginning of the good

A LITTLE DINNt R IN A HOR..
It fell out on a day in this last autumn that I had
to go down from hLodom to a place of seaside re
sort, on an boar's business, secompanled b my
esteemed friend Bullfinch. Let the ice of see.
side resort be, for the nonce, ealled Nameleaton.
I had been lettering about Paris Is very hot
weather, pleasantly breakfassig in the ope adir
in the garden of the Palaite Royal or the Tuileries,
pleaaentuy dinm in the open air In the glysita
Fields, p asel taking my ciger and Ismoaade
in the open air on ths Italian Boulevard towards
the small bours after midnight. Bullfinch -an ex
cellent masn of business-had summoned me back
acreos the channel to transact this said hour's
business at Nameleaston, and thus It fell out that
Bullfinch and I were in a railway carriage to
gether on our way to Namelesston, each with his
return ticket in his waistoot pocket.
Bays Bullfinch: " I have a proposal to make.
Let us dine at the Temeratre."
I asked Bullfinch, did be recommend the Teme
raire? Inasmuch as I had not been rated on the
books of the Temeraire for many years.
Bullfinch declined to accept the respoasibility of
recommending the Temeraire, but on the whole
was rather sanguine about it. He " seemed to
remember," Bullfinoh said, that he had dined well
there. A plain dinner, but good. Certainly not
like a Parisian dinner (here Bullfinch obviously
became the prey of want of confidence), but of
its kind very fair.
1 appealed to Bullfinch's intimate knowledge of
my wants and ways to decide whether I was
usually ready to be pleased with any dinner, or
for the matter of that-with an)thing that was
fair of its kind and realpy what it claimed to be.
Bullfinch doing me the honor to respond in the af
lirmative, I agreed to ship myself as an Able
Trenchermsan on board the Temeraire.
" Now, our plan shall be this," says Bullfinch,
with his forefinger at his nose. " As soon am we
gef to Namele.stos, we'll drive strabght to the
Temeraire, and order alittle otnner in an hour.
And as we shall not have more than enough time
in which to dispose on it comfortably, what do
you say to giving the house the best opportunities
of serving it hot and quickly by dining in the cof
fee-room ?"
What I had to say was, Certainly. Bullfinch
(who is by nature a hopeful constitution) then
began to babble of green geese. But I checked
him in that Falstaflan vein, urging considerations
of time and cookery.
In due sequence of events we drove up to the
Temeraire and alighted. A youth in livery re
ceived us on the doorstep. " Looks well," said
l;ullfinch, confidentially. And then aloud, "Cof
fee-room !"
TUe youth In livery (now perceived to be
moulds) conducted ns to the desired haens, and
was el joined by Bilifioch to send the waiter at
once, as we wished to order a little dinner
in an hlur. Then Bullfinch and I waited
for the waiter until, the waiter continuing to
wait in some unknown and invisible sphere of
action, we rang for the waiter, which ring pro
duced the waiger, who announced himself as not
the waiter who ought to wait upon us, and who
didn't wait a moment longer.
to1 Bul:finch approached the coffee-room door
asrd melcdii-usly pitching his voice into a bar
where two o~ung ladies were keeping the books of
the Temeraire. apologetically explained that we

Bullfinch, with a fallen countenance, was about
to say to rre " this won't do," when the waiter
who ougLt to wait upon us left off keeping us
waitirg at last. "Waiter," said Ballfinch, piteous.

waiter who otght to wait upon us laid the blame

alarmed consideration. Again: we obse 'd him,
