I Night autl Morning. Was it a lie that they told mo, ^ Was it a pitiless hoax ? A sop lor ray soul and its longing, | Only to cozen and coax ? < And a voice came down through the night and j rain: ' They lied; thou host trusted in vain-" ( J Must I vanish off-hand into darkness, < Blown out with a breath like a lamp ? 1 Have I naught in the future to look to ) Save rotting in darkness and damp ? ^ Aud the answer came with a mocking hiss: ] " Thou hast nothing to look to save this." i What of the grave and its conquost, t ( 01' death and the loss of its sting ?

The voice replied to my passionate thought: I "Tbv longing and travail is naught." i i Then I bowed my head in my anguish, !

His wife had died many years ago, so his household r was conducted by a housekeeper. But t as the doctor's family was small and he I loved society, he was hardly ever with- i out a student, to whom he taught the healing art in the back office. Thus it d was Charlie Ilorton came to Honey- a hurst to study medicine with the doc- s tor, and, as his predecessor had done be- a fore him, occupied the back office and t the northwest chamber. He came from t a town somewhat distant, and was un- t: y X _ _ X XV. 11 I 1M r Known w) iue rown iojks, una, use every u stranger thnt came among thpm, was b made the subject of much critical ex- " amination, as he walked up the broad p aisle of the village church the Sunday p evening after his arrival. n "Well, doctor, how are you?" said r Farmer Smith.'as he leaned over the gate h of his cornfield, next morning, as the doctor came driving by. c " Ah, Smith, how do you do?" replied a he, as he drew rein on the gray mare a and stopped. "IIow's your folks?" a "Toler'ble, thankee; wife's a little a ailin' this mornin'. See you've got a j y new young man: see'd him yesterday at | ti church. Goin' to make a doctor out o': r him. eh3" " Yes, I think so," replied the doctor, h " Think ye ain't got the wrong pig by h the ear, eh, doctor?" said the farmer, s; . laughing. - ? I 44 Well, don't know," replied the vil-' ^ lage iEsculapius; 44 ain't tell yet." j t< Now, 44 getting the wrong pig by the ' r: ear " was one of the doctor's great ex- j d pressions, in fact his favorite one. Like j s< Shakspear's jxistice, he was 44 full of wise ; il saws and modern instances," and had a ! proverb or apt quotation upon every oo- j g cassion With him. if a man make amis fi. it ll i T tans, it was " getting tne wrong pig Dy ? the ear." Of course this peculiarity was well known throughout all the country C about where he practiced, and hcnce t' the quotation of Farmer Smith. P Time passed on and Charles Horton P became fully domesticated in the doc- a tor's household. He was a tine young s1 fellow, somewhat over-confident, per- s> haps, and needed the vein a little. This the doctor was not slow to put on, and d he mingled his instruction in the heal- E ing art with admonitions nhout " setting I the wrone pit by the ear," until Charles i _ was heartily tired of the homely proverb, i il But he was a good fellow, nevertheless,; v and a great favorite. Then years passed away, and Charlie's b studies with the old doctor were drawing to a close, when suddenly the idea popped into his head that he would go to Paris and finish his medical educa- , tion with a course through the Conti- " nental hospitals. Dr. Johns pooh-! ? poohcd the idea and thought it utterly useless. f " . " Why. boy,"said he, "what do you v want to be gallivanting off to France ? foi ? What bee have you got in your bonnet now? Can't you be satisfied with home learning, but must go and tack on some new-fangled foreign tomfoolery that will knock all your sensible knowiedce out ot your head? Goto , Paris? Nonsense! Don't get the wrong 'J pig by the ear!" n But Charlie was not to be talked out ? of his new idea. He was bound to ao , to Paris to study and see the world, and ! { so one day lie packed his trunks, bade j: his friends cood-bve. and. mounting i 11 the stage-coacli, was wheeled out of the v village world. But before going the old doctor called him into his office, and, shutting the ? door, thus bogin: "Now. Charlie, you arc off to for- J eign parts, and I hope you will enjoy your3eif. Stick to your books and get [ what knowledge you can out of those c fellows over there, although I don't J c. suppose they know so much more than otner people. But, nevertheless, you Jj may learn a few things. I don't sup- J pose you'll be apt to go acting, as you { have been too well brought up lor that; J and now I've cot something here that I J want you to take with you. It's a recipe * that it has taken me a good raanv years j to find out. You will find it ot great value in your praetice. It will cost you ? ?5.? . ; And the doctor with a crave face, ? held out a huge yellow envelope sealed ? with red wax and tied with a blue ribbon. j. Charlie was rather tired of his longwinded harangue, for although he liked the doctor, he considered him something of an old fogy. But the offer of his c' recipe excited his curiosity. What was ifo qa ho ndirl tho ow%a ^ i iu. ***iv4 ucvaiutr tue : happy possessor of the huge envelope and ; its mysterious contents ! M Take good care of it, Charlie, and j tl don't ?po?i it until you are out of the | ^ country." * A day or two after, when at his hotel tj at Folkstone waiting for the steamer, p lie bethought himself ot the mystic re- ^ cipe, :ind hastening to his room he v locked t he door and opened his valise. ^ There it was, safe and sound, in all its jj ?lorv of yellow envelop red seal and p lue ribbon. Charlie took it out; turned ? it over. It was very solemn and ponderous; a perfect panacea for ivll tlie evils ^ that flesh is heir to. He turned it over 0 and over, and finally untied the ribbon. ^ and. breaking the seal, drew out a sheet j, of foolscap carefully folded. Taking it d to the window he read as follows: v "Don't get tli0 wrong pig l$r the ear. e DK. MATTire^ . ? a j _ ... 11 11 ?.?I I "Dashing the paper to the floor, Charlie burst out: "The old swindler, to cheat me out of ?5 in that way. I'll come up with him, though. See if I don't pay him off." 3o he contented himself with concocting j i scheme for veneencc in secret. Three years passed away before Charlie Horton finished his studies and i returned home. Meanwhile he hud j ihanged greatly, and irom a smooth-1 faced stripling, with the merest suggestion of a mustache, he was now bearded | like the pard, and looked so different that his own mother hardly knew him. But he had not forgotten Dr. Johns nor [lis promised revenge. It was Saturday night when the stags- , roach set Charles Horton down at the j 3oor of the village inn at Honeyhurst. tfe gave a false name to the landlord, md smoked a cigar with him after supjer, and inquired about the village, on oner rVILUUUV lllilli UlHUtlUlJai J v/uvu Duopvvir Jig his identity. In the course of the conversation Dharlie asked who it was that lived in j ;hat large house with a front garden I lown the street. "That's Dr. Johns'; been here a good nany years; clever man. I'll introduce ,'ou to him if you wish. The doctor ind I are pretty good friends." "Well." slowly replied Charlie; as if considering, "he ought to know his langer, ana it would be best to tell him. [t may not be too late yet." Ana on they started down the street ;oward the doctor's residence. "What did you say was his name?" isked Charlie, as they marched along. "Dr. Johns." "Johns?Johns," said Charlie, ;houghtfully: "I knew a fellow in Paris?Charlie Horton by name?who said he had studied with Dr. Johns, an )ld man and somewhat of a character. [ wonder if your doctor is the same nan?" "To be sure he is," replied the innceeper, "I knew Charlie Horton well. Se went to France three or four years igo. So you know him, do ye? Is he here yet? The doctor will be doubly 'lad to see you if you bring news from Charlie. He thought a great deal of lim." 1 By this time they had reached the ? * re? ?J U i),A I loctors omce, ivnu iik greetcu uic j?uuord heartily, and looked inquiringly at .he stranger. The landlord introduced Charlie as Dr. Holmes, and added that he brought lews from Charlie Horton. At this Dr. Johns was overjoyed, lrged the pseudo Holmes to come in, and nquired affectionately about his old )upil. Conversation was carried on for an iour, when Charlie, looking the doctor jamestly in the face, said: "Dr. Johns, how is your health low?" " First rate, sir?first rate. Never felt letter in my life!" and he certainly ooked it. " You don't find old age creeping on. do rou, sir?" blandly inquired Charlie, but 1 itill looking very intently into the doc- ' or's face. "Well, a little stiffish in the joints low and then: but?bless you, sir?I :an ride as many miles and as many ' lours as I ever could." "Dr. John's," said Charlie, very im)ressively, '* do you ever meet in your ' >ractice people who look and feel the >erfect embodiment of health, and yet vhose constitutions are being sapped by i fatal disease and they are not conscious >t it:*1" "Well, yes, I have met such eases," eplied the doctor. "And did you ever apply them to rourself, sir?" asked Charlie, in solemn ' ones. " Why, Dr. Holmes, what do you oean? Do you think that my constitu- ' ion is undermined by a secret disease? Nonsense, man!" and he laughed outi/rht. Then Charlie began. He told the old loctor all that be had told the landlord, j nd much more. How he had many ueh cases. He knew the doctor felt liis ge, and he cleverly used those sympoms, twisting them about, showing hat it was not age, and in two hours' ime the doctor was so thoroughly tightened that he believed his end liable to occur any moment, and besought Dr. Holmes" to do whatever lay in liis ower to give him relief. Dr. Holmes romised to think it over during the ight. Dr. Johns would not hear of his i oturaing to the inn, but insisted upon . lis taking a bed at his house. Charlie, with a grave face, finally c onsented, but before going to bed he J dvised the doctor to take an "anodyne," 1 sstired him that there was no immedi- , J ..i??i Lt* auu uic Ycnj uiaua^cu iw oup j n emetic into the doctors glass of rater, which he always took before rearing, and he had done so with great egularily for thirty years. About the middle of the night the old ousekeeper called Charlie up in great r iiste and terror. I)r. Johns was very 1 ick, and had asked her to call Dr. fl [olmes as soon as possible. Charlio s rent to the bedroom and found him I wsing around and groaning at a great j ite. He felt now he had an attack of the \ isease mentioned by Charlie, and be- c DUglit him to do what he could speed- 1 y- n Charlie made an examination, looked J rave and shook his head. "Bad, is it, Dr. Holmes?" asked * ohns, faintly; "tell me the worst, sir." 11 " It is u bad case, Dr. Johns," said J lharlie. " 1 can do only one thing, and j: iial is a costly one.

Charlie wrote on a slip of paper, folded * t up and handed it to the doctor.

P One of the most interesting papers in 1 Jarpers relates,to a little bird that has >een the subjection of praise and of deunciation also. There is much dispute s to the merits or the shortcomings of he sparrow, and we are not certain the American people will gratefully remember the person who first introduced the oreigner to our country. This attempt ras made we are told "by a gentleman lamed Desblois, in Portland, Maine, luring the autumn of 1858; he brought I iver a few birds from the continent, and iberated them in a large garden which vas situated within the central part of he city. They remained there shelterd and secure under the eaves of a neigli>oring church throughout the winter, md in the following spring settled lown happily enough to the labor of icst-building and rearing their young, rwo years later the first pair of these inches were set at liberty near Madison square, New York city; the importaion was steadily repeated, the birds >eing released in the Central Park and ,t Jersey City.

Around the foot of a steep slope, where a spur of the mountains thrusts ii its shoulder into the water, the road w runs its winding way. Following this c< the traveler comes at last to a peaceful si spot, whose quiet would throw tlie v: most timorous soul into reverie. Death 01 lurks in ambush here, however, and o where there should be black flags, yel- a low flags, red lanterns, skulls, and v cross-bones in abundance, there is no ei omen of his distinguished and pallid si presence other than a mild warning, ri marked.on a strip of board and tacked to A a stump, which is hidden so deep in the : ir evergreens tlif\t none but the most vigi-1 v) lant of observers would notice it. It is t! the premonitory signal: " Look out for h Logs!" Reading this indefinite hint, c< the traveler might feel a languid curi- la osity as to what it meant, but lie would hardly construe it as significant of fr peril.

He was performing before v a crowded audience in Madrid, Spain, a one of liis most sensational feats, which ti consisted in allowing a huge boa con- tl stridor over twenty feet in length to h enlold h:3 body in its tremendous coils, ft when suddenly a piercing cry escaped o him, which was greeted by the public ei with a round of applause, under the ? supposition that its utterance consti- tx tuted a part of the performance. It a proved, however, to be the outcome of si a strong man's death agony. The gi- d frantic snake had tightened its coils and I" crashed poor Karolyi's life out of him d with one terrific squeeze. As his bead p; fell back and his eyes became fixed in a glassy stare the plaudits died away and j were succeeded by the stillness of utter consternation. The snake and its lifeless victim swaved for a second or two o uf inexpressible horror and then toppled aver on the boards of the stage, but the ?' boa did not in the least relax his grip r upon the corpse, which remained for ? more than an hour imprisoned in its hide- r dus thralldom, nobody daring to ap- 11 proaoh the lithe monster, of whose 0 powers such appalling proof had been P riven. At length it occurred to one of " Karolyi's attendants to place a bowl of milk in a cagc within sight of the mighty'serpent, which slowly in wound " itself from the dead body an<? glided . nto its den, irresistibly tempted thereto oy its favorite dainty. A post-mortem u exa mination of the unfortunate athlete's r< remains disoovered no fewer than eighty- 8< leven fractures of his bones, effected by e' ;he constriction of the serpent's coils. u lis death must have been almost in- n itantanoous, as the spine was disarticu- ft ated in several places. ' i ? b ? tl L'egontn, A About two centuries ago a French lavigator named Begon brought from _ Vsia a new plant, which is still called ifter him. Begonia. Few readers would l iuspect the part this plant plays in the jfc >roduction of the handsome shawls so " >rized by ladies. The best by far of hese are made in Cashmere, a beautiful listrict at the foor of the Himalaya t nountains. The material used in their * nanufacture is the finest down from the Thibet goat.

They are the ormer. Nature in the East supplies .dmirably graceful leaves on which the ? un designs delicate ornaments, and the ^ vorkmen cf Cashmere imitate them, as he Grecian sculptors copied the curves ?! if the acanthus in the Corinthian cap tals. These leaves are those of the >egonia.

Some of the passes through the a .lleghanies were as precipitous as any "v i the Sierra Nevada, and the mountains t ere as wild.

In a country village near Nankihg ived two men named Chen and Yu. Yu z ad a daughter who was formally be- j rothed to Chen's son, and, probably on c ccount of" her parents' poverty, waa \ ent to her future father-in-law's house r o be brought up there. After a time i fu, who is a weaver, went to live in 1 banking, and his daughter came to pay c . visit to her mother. The girl, who a pas now grown up, was very discon- ] ented with her lot, complaining of hav- * ng to work in the fields ana of her 1 uture father-in-law's roughness and oarseness; and her parents began to ] epent of the engagement and determined . ^ 0 try and break it .off. Next door to hem was living a sftholar named Chin, . vho was waiting for the next examina- 1 ions and occupying himself meanwhile j & a schoolmaster. Constantly seeing } he girl, he took a fancy to her. The future father-in-law, Chen, find- , ng the girl was not sent back to his louse, and hearing a rumor of Chin's t Mention, began to suspect that Yu was , rying to break off the match, and sent 1 match-maker to hurry on the mar- f iage. Yu replied that he never accepted . my betrothal presents, and that no one } :ould make him take them, and that he II i _! L! ...i ma*. \uuiu not give ma cuiibcuu xaj but ui?4- ( iage. Chen then went himself with the , natch-maker, but with no further result f han a great deal of mutual abuse. Chen lext filed a petition in the magistrate's < :ourt, and Yu presented a counter-peti- < ion written for him by Chin. The case < :ame on for hearing and the magistrate oon elicited the truth. After rating Yu , icundly he turned to Chen and said: i ' You can take the girl or not, af you like, i >ut I strongly advise you not to.'1 Chen 1 jersisted in having her, and the mogis- i rate ordered the two parties to draw ud 1 l contract. Chen, who was present in 1 :ourt, motioned to Yu not to sign the :ontract. He was detected, however, by ' he magistrate, in so doing, and was ' ailed up and questioned, and then fhnfr. o mnn in his Tiosition I ihould not mix himself up ih a case of | his sort. The magistrate then looked lp the almanac and chose a lucky day in 1 Tune for the wedding day, whereupon 3hen stepped forward on Yu's behalf ' tnd begged that the marriage might be j leld in the autumn. This interference horoughly exasperated the magistrate* vho thumped the table and ordered Dhcn to be kept in confinement till after ihe marriage was completed. In a few day's time the match-maker 1 jresented herself at Yu's house with the justomary presents. When she was well inside, the door was closed, and ather and daughter fell upon her and beat ler horribly. The woman, after the foreaste, notknowing what would happe )n the real wedding day, appealed to the nagistrate. who again called up the mrties. Yu could only allege in excuse ;hat the son-in-law had not come in person to the house. Chen said that the justom was given up in the country, ind besides his son had n6t the money to buy a proper dress for the occasion. The magistrate replied that the bridegroom should certainly go to the house, ind, as he was poor, the magistrate arould give him tne money for the dres<. Moreover, when the day came, the magstratc said he would send two policemen with the bridegroom, and, if there .vas any trouble the girl should be carried to the magistrate's Yamen and narried there. When the day came, the policemen escorted the party to the bride's house and then back to the bridegroom's, and waited until the marriage ceremony had actuallv been performed, when they retirea.?Shanghi [China) Sheti Pao. In a Belgian Coal Mine. A correspondent who has made a dement infrn o 'Rplnrinn r>nnl mine rnVP.q an interesting account of it, in the course of tvhich he says: After walking about :ialf a mile on foot down lodes which ivero sometimes so low that we had to itoop in going along them, we came to a ipot where M. F. Cornet's new compressed air machine was working. It is i machine for drawing trucks by means )f pulleys, and lias saved the company arge sums in horseflesh and other expenses. A row of empty trucks was at land, about to start to some far-off part )f the mine to fetch coals, and we were iirected to get into this train, and keep jur mouths shut for fear of biting off our ungues. The caution was not superflu)us, for the jolting of the empty trucks proved to be. awful, and we were all ihaken like potatoes in sacks. Ourjouriey lasted ten minutes, and in that time ' ve cleared about two mil^s. On getting out we saw nothing much more iuiious than we had seen as yet, except hat here Were some men at work fore- : ng open new lodes. The process con- , lists of introducing a metal tube full of junpowder into a hole which it takes ( lalf an hour to bore, then lighting a ] natch and retreating to a safe distance . vhile it fires the powder. There is al- I vays some peril in these explosions, lor i oinetimes the powder goes off too soon. > >r it may chance that its effects are 1 through some atmospheric cause) much ] Qore powerful than had been counted ' ipon, so that tons of coal will be shot j ike rubbish in all directions, burying , ainers who had fancied themselves out >f reach. Again, when a new lode hvs ( teen opened accidents olten arise in learing away the masses of coal, lor ; ome hie lump that has been half deached will come down of a sudden and i rush the excavator working on his ] >ack. Women are allowed to work in < hese Belgian mines. We saw more i han twenty Dretty Walloon girls, in } ostumes even scantier than an acrobat's, ' ngaged in filling trucks. They are paid ! ess than men. From one of these damels we heard an account of the terrible ' .ccident which took place at a neighbor- , ng pit. that of Framerios, a few months , go, when above a hundred miners per- ] shed. The girl herself was in the pit at i he time, ana narrowly escaped death; j >ut one is glad to say that she is now in 1 be receipt of a pension of 860 a year for 1 laving lost her father and brother in he disaster. The mother, a younger 1 rother and two small sisters are all 1 mployed as sifters above ground, and ! ire saw them on our return to the day- i ight after a trip which we would not ave missed for a great deal. Altoether we spent three hours helow, and n our return it took us half an hour to rash ourselves. \ A Common Mistake. It is a great mistake to suppose that t ittle can be accomplished if a man has t ( ached the age of thirty or forty years. < fine-tenths of our clever men have ac- ' ually exhibited more vigor of intellect J t fifty years of [age} than at forty.

Sir Henry Spcl- n lan did not begin the study of science ? jitil he was Detween fifty and sixty c ears of age. Greek was the first for- 1 ign language which Cato, the celebrated c Loman censor, acquired, and he did so r a his old age. Alfieri, who, writing, ? ias caused a revolution in the dramatic e iterature of Italy, was left without a v ither in his infancy, and wasted his i arlv years. John Ogilby, the author of 1 oetical translations from Virgil and lomer, began the study of Latin when bout forty years of age. and Greek in ;is forty-fourth. Boccacio, one of the lost illustrious writers that ever :ip- J1 eared in Italy, suffered nearly half of *! is life to pa^s without improvement. 1 [anriel was forty-eight before he pubished any of his great works.
