Oaoe theru Ured a littla m&iden, who was very sweet aud fair, Who had oy<fH like purplu pansiea, and loug. sunuy, tlowiuK hair ; And cwaa said through all tbu oouatry shu was loved beyond oumparo. Yut Bha had no wealth nor dowerâ€" just a lovely, smiliug face, Just a kindly, t^t-ntlo nature, and a maiduu's wiu- some grace : But at tiinus she longed for juwols, to wear ailk and costly lacu. And it chanced she lay a-sleepinu in the garden once iu June, Aud the suiiliKht kissed her tressus, and the breo/.eB sang a tune, And the roses were half jealous all tlio sumtuer afturuuou. And she dreamed of wondrous treasures, of a castle by the sea. Of a prince who came to claim her, and whose praise seemed melody Like thK music of the waters dowint; on cleliuht- fuUy And she longed for Time to pass hor like a sud- den spirit liowii, For her youth to vanish ixuickly, and to bo a womau crown. That the prince might kneel before her, and might claiiii her fur his own. And ill part her wish was answered, for there came to hor one day One who utfered wealth aud station, aud indis- putable sway; Tho she had no love to give him, yet aho did not tutu away. But I've heard a sad-eyed woman stands alono at close uf day, And her heart is f(rieved and troubled, let men praise her as they may. For her happiness has left her â€" taken wings and down away ! And I think. O friends, twure better, in th journey here of ours. Not to dream of power and richos, nor ot stately domes and towersâ€" But to live iu sweet coutentment, likii the little birds and Howers. â€" V lie lnde]>rndeit t NOT A FLAT. The Woman ^Vho Knew ^That She Had Bought. A good atory ia told by the New York Prest which a firm of prominent farnitare dealers in that city sacoeeded for some time in keeping (]aiet. The firm alladed to had a very elegant parlor sec of solid mahogany ot the finest apholatury. It also had duplicates in veneered wood and aheap plash iu thu store-room. The oostly oatfit, which was worth aboat i.lOQ, was displayed in the window and marked : : THIS ELEUA.NT I'AKLOlt SLITE I O.NLY ; ; TWENTY-SKVKN DOLLARS. One day a mild, meek-looking woman came ia, e.\amined the furniture and in- vestod. She took a receipt for her money, left her address, and was bowed oat by (he smiling suleHinan, who assured her that " the things would be sent right away." In dae time the waggon arrived at the young woman's hoase and backed up in front of the door. " Hold on," said the porchaser, " don't onload yet." Then she climbed on the van and made a very peculiar examination of tbs load. At last she said to the driver : " I'll no back with you to tho store. These are not the goods I pnrchased." And back she did go, despite protests and asaurances that everything was all right. When she walked in she was not the mild mannered creature of two hoars before. " You've tried to swindle me," aha cried. " I bought one set of furniture and yoa sent me another. Now, I want what I paid yoa for. How do I know ? Beoanse in every article of that set yoa sold me I stack a pin while yoa were not looking. Now, I'm going to pick out my property and see that you send it over. If you don't there'll be trouble." There was no trouble, and the little woman is again looking for a abarp mer- chant with a similar " bargain " on band. Kx-Presldeut Hayes' Home. " Nellie BIy " writes very pleasantly in the New York irorid of ex-Preaident Hayes' tine old homestead at Fremont, Ohio, and ot the lives of its inmates. The mansion is of the old-fashioned southern type, with a broad hall through the centre and large, lileasant rooms on either hand. The Hayes are very popular among their nei;{hbors. Tho ex-Fresident has been oharged with penariousness, bat all aocoants from those who know him will agree that he ia, on the contrary, extremely charitable, though very ijuiet and anoatentstious. He and Mrs. Hayes expend on cbaritios aboat 910,000 a year. The chickens, of which so much has been said by the newspapers with a view of poking fun at the ex- Presi- dent, are the pets ot Mrs. Hayes, who is extremely fond of all kinds ot auirnala. Neither Mr. Uayes, however, nor any other man need be ashamed ot raising good poultry. Tho homestead ia filled with rare treasures ot a literary and artistic character, the accumalatioua of years of cultnro, opportunity and pecuniary in- dependence. The general still cares tor hia old war horse, Whitey. The Hayes' {amily lite is a happy one. On the Way to the Caledonian Oanies. Officer O'Grady (recently appointed) â€" Shtoy, ye divil !

Terrific Encounter uf a W«i*tern Stockman with Mr. Brula. James Ingle, a stockman, residing near the main range of the Rockies, iu Colorado, baa for some time past been losing large numbers ot cattle, often finding their car- oases terribly mutilated and half buried in some deep canun or glen far up among the fastnesses ot the moantaina. So, taking one of his beat herders and a fall supply of arms and o<juipment8, he started out with the bold determination of hunting up some ot these wild aud savage beasts. A ride of several miles brought the two men to the foot hills, and they began at onoe to scout the ravines and patches of brush where they sapposed one ot tlie monster animals might lie concealed. For over two hoars their efforts proved fraitleas, bat at length, emerging from a deep and narrow valley, tbuy suddenly espied im immense grii^zly leas than six rods distant, aud leisurely moving in an opposite direction, evidontly making tor the uraiga and peaks farther up in the range. On perceiving the hunters the bear started to run for a dense thicket near by, but Ingle, in order to head him off from the hiding place, pat apurs to bis horse and dashed ahead recklessly. The griz.z\y, seeing hia chance ot escape likely to be cut off, became infariated and roshed toward the men savagely. It being down hill tbe animal's jumps were unormous, and he rapidly shortened the distance between him- self and the hunters. Ingle's horae was frightened ao badly that it became unman- ageable, and while he was struggling with his equine the bear overtook him, and with a tremendous leap caught the horse by the withers, barling both it and the rider to tho ground. Ingle, being an aotive man, regained bis fuet instantly and darted toward cover. A few bitea and groaua, and the bear killed the horae almost instantly, and then proceeded to uvortake Ingle, who waa rushing for a place ot safety at the top ot his speed. Fortunately, the ranchman's herder came to hia rescue, and placing him- self and horse almost sijuarcdy in front ot tho bear's course, diverted tho latter's attontion, and caused tbe bear to give tbem a hard chase over rough ground that well nigh resulted in their dostraction. At length, skilfully avoiding the animal, the herder returned to his partner, aud again, with gnns in hand, they started after the bear. He was found behind a small clump ot bushes, and, when be saw hia enemies ap- proaching, rushed oat to vanquish tbem. Ibu men stood their ground and gave him several abota from their Winchester rilleB,r but even these failed tOi|uell bis fury, as he continued to rush upon them, with open jaws, growling frightfully. The bear was almost against Ingle, when, at an oppor tune moment, and with great dexterity, the latter jammed his ritlu barrel down the animal'H throat and discharged the weapon. The bear waa severely atunned and stag- gered, but he managed to give Ingle a fear- ful stroke with his paw that tolled the latter to the earth breathless and serioualy wounded. Springing upon hia victim and with his mouth tilled with gore tbe bear was in tbe very act ot grasping Ingle's bead in his enormoiiH jaws when the lierdorgave the animal a < IU shot that dropped him instantly. Thu lall of the dead bear on the body ot the hunter almost crashed the latter com[iletely, and it will be many months before he fully recovers from his injuries. After taking his partner home the herder returned and skinned the bear, which waa an enoriiioua silver tip, the hidu being considered quite valuable. Tho des- perate encounter, however, has proved rather discouraging to the hunters of this aeotion. BBIMO OCT ITODK DEAD. A Story Told by George FrauuU Train in u Leetura for the Yellow Fever Fund. George Francia Train lectured to 200 per- sona in Clarendon Hall last night for the benefit of Jacksonville sufferers. Nobody presided, and he introdaoed himself. He talked ot a great many things, at which he himself was thu greatest. Tonohing upon the Jaokaouvillo fever acourge, he reverted to an epidemic iu New Orleans fifty-two years ago. " It waa dreadful," he said. " No ooffina there, nor any hearse, nor funeral, nor mourning. Only a cart and a boy that stopped before the door and called : '"Bring out bringoat â€" yourâ€" de-a-d !' "I remember they took out my little.aiBter Josephine. 1 remember how they tosaed the box over among a lot ot others. My father and mother and I went after it in a carryall. I remember thu rain and the water splashing about the wheels in the cemetery. Again in two daya came that cry : •"Bring outâ€" bringout â€" yoar-d-e-a-d!' " It was my little itister Ruby, then. How different from at Jacksonville, where they do it np in style, with tine cotVins, and money and help pouring iu from all over thu world. Yet again we went to tbe graveyard, and there was left only my little sister Ellen, a weak, delicate little tiling, gentle and mild, the fairest fiower that ever bloomed. She had always been my special playmate. A little fellow 4 years old don't remember mach, but her faoe has been with me all through my life, and I shall never forget it, nor how one day there aame again that ory : " 'Bring out â€" bringout â€" your -d-e-ad '. " I olung to the bo.x, I remember, and straggled against their taking it away. After that went the servants, I remember, and tbe doctor, and tlien the narae, and at last they showed me my mother, sick, and in a few days she, too, had gone. Then there came a letter from my aunt, far away in New England, and it begged them to send one- little Georgia, m any rate, before all were dead. 8o my father took me to the ship Waverly, and I remember how wo walked from one ship to another to tut on it. He tied a card about my neck, and on it wrote : " ' This ia George Francis Train, my only child. Consigned to John Clark, jun Dock Bijuare, Boston. " ' Take good care of the little fellow be is only 1 years old : all dead but one out ot a family of eleven.'

KOCKING STOMK. Woadt-rfal Book'I'hat .Stsuils on a PennaTl^ vaula Farm. Imagine a stone, in si/.e containing about five hundred cubic feet, in shape nearly oa round as an orange, in weight not less than <SO,OUO pounds or 10 tons, and bo nicely balanced upuu a rock that a child 10 years of age by puuhiug against either tbe north or south side can rock it back and forth ; yet the strength ot a hundred men with- oat levers or other appliances would ba inaafficient to dislodge it from its position.

What aoalptor could chisel out a piuue oC marble of ita size and then poise it ao nicely that it would vibrate under so light » touch ? But ita shape, size and position are not the moat wonderful things about it. Its body ia composed of a somewhat loose and soft sandstone, iu which are imbedded numberless round and flinty pebbles of a diamond like hardness. In all the valley where it ia situated it ia the solitary speci- men of its class. Around and under the rook are of a totally different atrooture. The table <ju which it rests is a hard stone nearly as firm and close grained as the blueatone of our ijuarries. From whence name tbia wonder and how 1â€" Philadelphia Call.
