KXULIMH TWILIttHT*
The men among the barley
Are pinging as they reap,
While up the planting cornfield
The dusky shaduwp creep.
And the msbling scarlet poppies
Talk of sleep!
The sun is swathed ia purple
A* he slowly ainks to rest.
But he leaves a g<»ldra gladness
In the rosy gleaming West—
Every littie bird is "ingiug
In her tient.
The dew on the daisies
As they elose their eoral lips
, In the field beyond the hedge-row
Bed with wealth ot glossy hip*—
All the grass blade* dally diasu<>tida
On their tip*.
Far across the dim horiton
Bolls a veil of toft, blue mist.
All the roof* down in the valley
By the last warm sunbeam* ki**ed,
dl'tf—til! the pink clouds change to
Amethyst!
High up, beyond the houses,
Just above the village spire
Trembles forth the star of evening
Like a Spark -of pure, white fire—
And the reu|»e», reaping, singing,
Sm»n will tire.
Oh music of the phadows!
Sweet music of the light!
*Tis the folding of the sunshine
Neath the mystic pall of night.
Dear angels stand around u*

A lla« h«-lor on Kablm.
Hiere are a great mi tuber of babies in
the world. Mont of them are, however,
kept out of sight in cradle*, hen coop*, al

When very Htnall, they arc called infant*,
md fed on butter, brown sugar, and turpfu.
tine Sometime* turpentine rise* to their
heads, and they behave in a most outrage
on* manner, i once saw- an iniant who
had drank too much turpentine hitting on
i pillow on the ground, veiling ul a tespec
table looking oM Judy, the infant'* grand
hunt, who had a lot ol money in the fund*.
Whenever ulie pointed her finger at the
infant, it yelled louder than ever, and trie l
to bite. The grand aunt left the house, *ud
~-*uied all her money ori an institution lor
elderly unmarried women.
I lie education ol huhich i* generaIIv in a
very backward state indeed they do not
seem *o know much of the English langu
age beyond the words "papa, "uiaiiiiua, •
me, “go,’ “by. Their attempt* at
French are even worse: they are continually
using such low French u* "ajoij,” “day-day ’

me he had no doubt that ha hie* are desen

Bahiea do not dill'er much iu temper,
size or disposition. They tire violent, about
the size of a pillow, and covetous.
I once saw a baby with a cork screw, a
plir of tong*, a hand bell, and a broken
hearth hr isli, and nothing could induce it
to part from any of them, although it had
jot the corkscrew half way into it* ear,
