The pines were dark on Ramoth hill, Their song wns itn't mid low ; The blossoms in tho sweet May wind Were fulling like tho snow. The blossoms drifted at our feet, The orchard birds sung clear j The s wee tent and the saddest day It scorned of all the year. For more to me than birds or flowers. My playmnte left ber home, And took with her the laughing spring, The music and the bloom. She klMP.l tho Urs of kith and kin, She laid her hand In mine: What more rould ask the bnnhful boy Who fed her father's kino? She left us In the bloom of May ; The constant years told oVr Their seasons with as swei-t May morns, Rut she came back no more. I walk, with noiseless foct, tho round Of uneventful years; Still or and o'er I sow the spring Aud reap tho autumn ears. She lives where all the golden year Her summer roues blow ; The duky chiMrrn of tho sun Before her come and go. There haply with her jeweled hand She smooths her silken gown No more the silken gown wherein I shook tho walnuts down. Tbo wild grapes wait us by the brook. The brown nut n the hill: Still the May-day (lowers make sweet The wjd of Fullymill. The lilie loMom :n tho pond, The bird builds in the tree; Th dark pircs sing on Ramoth hill Th' slow song of the sea. I wonder if he thinks of them. And bow the old time stfm If e'er the pine f Ramoth wood Are sounding ia her drentn? I see ber fare. I hear her voire; Iw he remember mine? And what t her U now th boy Who fed her father's line? What carrs he what the criolcs build For other eyes than our, That other bnJ w.t'i not are fi!!ed, And other lp with floweis? Ob. playmate ia the goltlen time ! Our uoy seat U gneo.

Itcvcrdy Johnson wan received at his home with the hoatra befitting his cmincnta public services. The letter writers who have been resisting him, give omc inter esting account of his conversation. From one of them we take this extract: 44 For a few minutes Mr. Johnson here relapsed into nlence, and then broke out a:ain : " ijuiuticr's speech is absurd ! Bo you kuow what they ay of it to Kngland ' Clarendon bay a that it 1.4 absurd and pre posterous ; that it U not tho apeech of either a lawyer or "a tatcnia!i j that its propositions are wholly tnadminhible. Why," eays Mr. Johnson,44 thisiame Mr. Sumner wrote to Mr. Bright, on the llhh or 2Uth of last January, that the protocol which I cnt here would have been al most unanimously approved if it had been received three weeks sooner. The fact is, the incoming President did not want the question hettled during tho adminis tration of Andrew Johnson, and tho He publican party did not want it settled by me. They did not want the eclat of hav ing the most difficult question, short of the question of actual fcparation, that has arisen between the two countries, settled by a Democratic administration. That was the point of objection to my course and to my protocol. Mr. Sumner said to my colleague, Mr. Vickers, that a month earli r 44 it would have been as welcome as champagne." Mr. Bright denounces Sumner's speech in the strongest terms." A Life Picture. Chapter 1. She stood beside the altar, upon her head a wreath of orange-buds, upon her back the richest kind of duds: her lover btood be side her with gloves and dicky clean the last was twenty-one years old, the 6rst was seventeen. The parson's job was over evsry one 1 ad kissed the bride, and wished the young folks happinehss, and danced, and laughed, and cr.ed. The last kiss had beeu given, tho last word had been said, aud the happy pair had sim mered down and sought the marriage-bed. Chapter 2. She stood beside the wash tub with red hands in the suds, and at her slip-shod feet there lay a pile of dirty duds; her husband stood beside her. the crosscst man alive, the last was twenty- nine years old, the first was twenty fire. The heavy wash was over, the clothes hung out to dry, and lorn had stuck his fiDger in the dirty baby's eye ; Tom had been spanked, supper made upon a crust of bread; and then tho bnao and bri croom went crumbling to their, Dod, Times. The French citizens residing in and near Paducah, Kentucky, have organized an association for mutual aid and pro tec tion, and among other things have rcsolv ed to communicate with New York, and offer to pay ihe expenses to Paducah of any Frenchman who would come there to live, and to give him employment un til ho can do better. One very cold night a jolly old fellow who had been drinking too hard at a tav. ern started for home in a gig, and on the way was upset and left by the side of tho road. Some person passing a short time after, discovered him holding his feet to the moon, and saying. 44 Pile on the coals ; it is a miserable cold fire." 1 Cleveland pays seventy-five cents a head for canines rdelivcred at her dog- pound.

Thus permitted, Hells read : "We are sorry t- announce, this morn ing, tho failure ot another or our mer cantile houses.

"Ilnw fortutiatv!" exclaimed the moth er, oh Bella finish d reading. " Why tnauima ! how can you say so ?" answered the daughier reprovingly " I am sure I am eorry, and, besides, Hubert is goiug to marry Lizzie Leonard, you know, mother." "You mean he icug," corrected Mrs, Iladiey, rt.-ing "but of course this event which I only called fortunate in hap pening at uch a time will prevent such a proceeding on his tart." i i . .i.- i :.. r t,. "But 1 am sure, mother, the fact of Lizzie becotuiug poor will rinkc no differ ence to brother Hobcrt ; and indeed it ou-ht not to and I hope it won't." There, just as I expected," replied the mother, " aud the very cau; of my fir?t remark ; I hope, however, your brother will have more cnc than you, after the turn affairs have taken." "But, mamma, I am going over to Mr. Leonard's to see how poor Lizzie feels, remarked Belli, Marling to leave the room. "Hcmatu !" commanded the mother. "I forbid you visiting at Mr. Leonard' again. You forget that they will no looker move in our circle. Brirr" mc the writing dck ; I will at once dtpatch a letter to (icrtnauy to your brother." Bella turned, with a poor grace, to oWy her mother' c-mmntnl, while that laify leaned her head upon her hand, for jcW m,Jincat in thou-ht. that ii her s o, who was at that time iravtling in Lurupo, was to be informed of ihe misfortune that had overtaken the family to which he wan to tenderly tl inched, he would hasten home, and prob ably 1 1 onco consummate the intended marriage, even though he found the bride pennile-s. Mr. II adit y was ambitious, and determined to break up the anticipa ted match a match, by the way, that he sanctioned so long as Lizzie lconard was the expected heiress of the wealth her father wis believed to possess and her knowledge of her fon's character as sured her i hut by htratagem only could she accomplish the desired result, and her resolve was at once taken. Belli brought the writing desk, and Mrs. Had Icy was soon engaged in writing the following letter : "31 Y Dear Son : Your announcement of an early return home would have filled us all with much plcasuro had not an event occurred to make it seem prudent, in my mind, fur you to extend your trav els somewhat lougcr. "I have long been awaro of ihc rela tions existing between you and 3Iis Leo nard, aud have noticed the deception practiced upon you by that lady. I doubt if she ever cherished any strong affection for yoj. If so i here has been a very great change, and before you ever sec her again she will probably bo married to an other. Under these circumstances I deem it best that you prolong your absence at least another year, and spare yourself the pa n of meeting Mis Leonard; and ere this I hope you will have gotten over this uufortunatc attachment." 44 Your sister sends her love, to which is joined that of your affectionate "Mother." "There I" exclaimed the lady to her self as she folded the letter, "I think that pretty cleverly done. Indeed , she has practiced deception, in leading him 'to suppose her father had money, when, I have no doubt, the artful thing knew ho was on the verge of ruin; aud as for a change, there has been ono, though differ ent from what he will think; and if I can succeed in keeping him away, ebo will .... ' probably be married to somo one nn her own level before his return : pretty cl erly done I think. And she Voided the letter and 'directed it ', utAv hnnd I ai v,,v,-n sua was uot rutniossiy crusmng Aim' . 1 tho hopes of two young hearts. This letter was dispatched, and received by tho young man just as ho ;was on the point of starting lor home, lie read it through and wa completely stunned by the intelligence it contained. , On tho morning succeeding tho conver sation between the mother and daughter, detailed above, Mfcs Leonard called at the residence of tho Hadleys to communicate tho sad intelligence to her friends. But though she saw Mrs.' Iladiey at the win dow as she came up the avenue, she was informed by tho servants that sho wa "not at home," an . implication sho well understood, that her company was no lon ger desired at tho home of the Hadleys. Of course, sho knew that, after tVsuch an unmistakable "cut" on tho . part of Mrs Iladiey, that lady would , use her power to break off tho engagement existing be tween herself and her son. Urged on by conflicting emotions sbo lurried homo and wrote and dispatched ttha following note, ere she allowed her.1 sclfvto think calmly on tho subject; "Mr. IIauley: Circumstances of which you will doubtless bo made-aware place me under tho necessity of at once releasing you from your engagement to myself. Yours etc., Lizzie Leonard." Scarcely had she dispatched it before sho regretted the step, butcomiortea Her self by saying: "if tho change in my fortune will cause him to wish to be re leased from his engagement, this will give him a chance to do so; but I am sure he will alloW this change to mako no differ euce in his feeling' toward me." By a singular coincidence, though leav ing the city by the same mail, this letter did not reach him until ho had read his mother's, and its effect upon him can well bo imagined. Now Hobcrt ifadley did not "tear his hair and pace the floor all night wrestling with his great agony," an rejected lovers in novels arc supposed to do; nor did he commit suicide, or kill himself with a butcher-knife, or do any other of the ter rible things only heard of in dime novels. Still it must be confessed that the sup posed fickleness of the girl he had so tenderly loved was a fevere uiow to mm. After fully considering the matter in his own mind, he concluded the wirst course would be to follow the advice his mother had given, and, countermanding tho orders which he had already given for a return home, he made preparations for a visit to the Kant; and two days af tcrwards he left Bremen on hi way t i As a Minor, Without deeming it necessary to make an) reply to Mi-s leonard'h note. The sad catastrophe that had befalleu Mr. 'Leonard o weighed upon his previ ouly delicate health that he sank rapid ly into a decline ; and three months after tne failure of the homc. in which he was the Mftiior partner, lie died, leaving hi wife aud daughter dependent upon the hard mercies of on uusympalhiziug pub lic. Lizzie Leonard was a cirl of much en ergy ; and, as oou us the sad cveut de priving them of a protector brought the unwelcome truth of their poverty home to them, ho and her mother he I J, as they termed it, "a council of war." Uoiile mo?t heroine!!, Lizzie was not an adept in the art of muic, neither did she consider h.rself a quite fitted for a gov erness; besides which, he knew that the alary of a governess oi mmic-teacher would not suffice to support herself and mother; aud as a fiiul alternative the needle wan resorted to. Lizzie took upon herself the humiliating tak of giog unions her ol I ai-q'taint nces soliciting occdlcwork. But alas! for suuuy day frictids she mil with very poor success; and day after day glided by and brought the wolf nearer the dor. At last, one d:y. late in December, she came home from taking out some fins-h'-d w rk. a ud turpi L-ed her mother by saying ai.rupi y : 4 M tber, I am going into the foctory to w Tk V 4,What do you mean, child ?" exclaim ed the mother. i "Simply,, mother," he replied, ''that we can not live in this way. Tho winter is upon u?, and this is the only alternative Iclt." In vain the mother expostulated ; her daughter's resolve was taken, and at hist she obtained her parent's reluctant con sent. "But where do you intend to go?" asked the latter, when it wxs finally de cided that go he should. "I have thought of several places," re plied Lizzie; "aud a tho one where I nhall be m.t likely to obtain employment, as well as bo spared the pain of meeting those who once were called my friends, I have chosen Woousockct, in the State of Hhodc Island. There are quite a num ber of mills there, and I have little doubt of obtaining a situation in some of them." "But the expense of gofu? there? and if you should only fail V still urged the mother, ; . "I have thought of that," answered tho courageous girl ; "there aro tho brace lets papa gave -I meant to have kept them; but. I am sure could ho look down from heaven and speak to us, he would say I was doing right to dispose of them to assist me in obtaining means of support for yourself and tnf dear mother ; and as for failing I shall not fail, I am sure ot that." " :' -': ' And so it .was settled; and so it was that the young girl, all unused to work, found her way to thp great brick mill, at tho "Social," one morning, aud applied for work at the oS.cc.' ' !-: 'Have you ever worked in a mill V in. quired the Superintendent, when l0 jia(j made known tier wisnes. , ; "No, sir," she rp-'.ed, buk I think I can soon Do uIo to perform my duties satisfactorily. ' tier tone, was so confident that thc su Iintendcnt was at onco prepossessed in her favor; and being , at that time fhort, of hands, ho engaged, her. ..... A fortnight after found her busy at her looms, dis playing mucTt skill and judgment in' her management of them. -' 1 , Sho had obtained 1 board in a boarding houso belonging to the m eofporatiou, and though uotf like tho 4quiet she had been accustomrd to at homo, she had set her heart upon being contented ; and to a certain extent sho was so. But still it was a great trial to her to minglo with the promiscuous company that congregate in factories and listen to tho sometimes coarso language sho waa compclled to hear. She found,' however, tho impression that mill operatives aro always devoid of culture was a very erroneous ono, for she found ladiesyes,. reader, do not, smile genuine ladies, of cultivation and educa tion, that would put to sha'mo m' ny an elegantly dressed miss thai 'queens it in the drawing-room, working at' tho loom. And there were gentlemen there, in every sense of thojword, who, intellectually and morally, were the superiors of many who would , blush io recognize l a "mill hand" on tfcektreet' ivll ';i.f,iV-"T; ; Yes, they ret We, weaving out the! motley thread of life, communing with their own noble thoughts, as they wove the useful fabric or spun the eilver threads. Noble men and women, for they wero making something useful, living by their own honest industry, and owing no man anything savo the love we should bear each othftr. ', , And so, amid these people, she was learning the lesson of sclf-defense, and, besides all that, supporting an aged and invalid mother, and making smooth her pathway through her declining years. Was she happy 1 She who had reign ed a bello in fashion'! circles; who had been a petted child in the house of opu lence ; had once felt no wish unratified that wealth could bring. Could "she bo happy in that noisy mill, working at the clattering looms from early dawn till night, until every nerva and fibre of her being ached for rest? Yea, she was happy far htppier than in other days; and had no cloud rested on her heart, no bitter memory ever wet her pillow with tears, she would hav been fully content, and that is better than wealth. But there came the sad thought that her father was gone, to return to earth no more, and her heart would he filled with sadness, until she would think of meeting him again in the butter land, and she would no more be sad. Then sometimes would come the mem ory of hint whose image she could not yet efface from her woman's constant heart, and with that memory came sad dened tears, whose bitterness no one could share, hours to which no friend could bring comfort, save the Friend who said, "Lo! I am with you always, evea unto 'he end." To the mother's anxious eyes the in road that the unusual, unremitting toil made upon her daughter wero fully ap parent, and .he loneliness of her widow hood was made sad by the thought of tne uarK luturc that lay before the daugh ter for whom she once had cherished such bright anticipations. But she, too. had learned to ret her burden upon the Khoulders of One mighty to save, and to the widow's God Lc often scat up a prayer lor help. The burning days of summer had come, and in the hot rooms of the factory the air was like a furnace. The whir of the machinery, the dust and the heat lecmed intolerable. Often did it seem to Lizzie that she would never be able to complete her day's labor, but still she toiled on. One morning, however, she was awaken ed by the early bell, and on attempting to rtMS found herself utterly incapable of do ing j-o, much to her surprise. She spoke to her mother, saying : 44 Mother, 1 fear I am too unwell to work ty-day, but it is nothing serious, I lup-." But she was nmfaken. Kre noon she was in a high fever, and for weeks fche lay at the point of death. But vouth and a Mrong constitution finally triumphed, and she grew convalescent slowly. But their money was all expended, and what should they do? It would be s me time before Lizzie would bo able to eater upon her duties in the mil), aud in the meantime both she aud her mother must live. One day a friend, who had worked with Lizzie in the mill, called on them, acd fuuud the latter so despondent that she inquired the occasion of it. After much hesitancy on the part of the young girl, persuaded by the disinterest ed ytupathy manifested by the other, she finally confided to her the circumstances of their painful situation. Mary Hale was an orphan, and having no one but herself dependent on her fur support, she determined to assist her friend, and at once offered, with much delicacy, to loan Lizzto and her mother a sufficient sum, from her little store in the savings bank up at the village,. to meet their wants until such a time as the former should be able to again enter upon her duties in the mill. . . The kind offer was thankfully accepted, and Mary took her leave with the con sciousness of having performed a noble act, as indeed it was. It would bo many weeks before her friend would able to save enough from her cai oing to repay the sum sho had so kindly advanced, and per haps never bo able to fuily do so. But Mary felt, even should such be the case, that she would not regret it. Sho had heeded the divine injunction, 41 Cast thy bread upon the waters," and she doubted not the fulfillment of the promise, 44 and it shall return to thee after many davs." And so the days glided on, and our heroine was again" at her looms in the mill; somevnics sunshine in her he.y Z.Zu sometimes clouds, Tho leaves had fallen and the winter was fast approaching, when ono Sabbath she accompanied Mary Halo to church at the lower end of the village.
