FRIDAY. OCTOBER 23, 1874. For the New Northwest. THE VILLAGE CIICBCIITABD. How calmly they sleep In the silent crave, By the sparkling stream and. Its glided wave, The shining sand and the glittering stone; Hear the sons of the streamlet rippling on. Youth and beauty, and age and care. Hare lain them down In chambers there; And the opening bud and spreading flower Bloom sldo by aide a fragrant bower. But4rhat to them is the angry roar. When the chill winds lath the pebbly shore T Or the song-bird's note in the checkered shade, Where they sleep on in their dust-home laid Bleep on, sleep on, In your lowly graves, Beside the stream with the sliver waves, For the tempest and winds shall a requiem be or those who rest In Eternity. John A. Wosi4.ce. IX SILK ATTIRE BT FLORENCE PEItCT. These are my lady's parlors These dim delightful rooms. Gorgeous with well-bred splendors And sort, artistic glooms, warm with harmonious colors. And pleasant with faint perfumes. The curtains are marvels of broidery. Wrought skillfully, stitch by stitch; The carpets are woven roses, Moss-like, and deep, and rich, And the marble face nfClytle Looks out from her draperled niche. The flowers are bot-houe darlings, Exotic, dainty and rare. Tuberoses und rich caraellas. Stately and waxen-lair More the work ol a florist Than of nature's earth and air. Think of the brave bright asters Fringing the autumn leas. Of the golden-rod with trces Totacd by the wild, frckh breeze. Lining their common faces Among such flowers as these! The rude plebeian daylight Dares scarcely to venture near. But tempered by careful shading, And timid from bashful fear, Wltboft half-tones and touches Makes tenderest twilight here. And the queen of all this splendor fjlts shrined In her luxuries; Her bands, unsullied by labor, Are folded In graceful ease. Showing no harsher contact Than the touch of ivory keys. Hush! do you envy my lady Her treasures from many lands, Her costly and rich surroundings. Her white wrists, Jewelled bands. The diamonds which star her bosom, And glint on her waxen hands ' No covet her golden leisure. Her Ireedom from petty cares. From tbo burden of small denials Which many a spirit bears But never her soft Inaction, Nor the robes and gems she wears. The vain, unused existence Hhe wears like a flowery wreath. Were chains to a soul more noble; It would strlre and fret beneuth The burden of useless living As a dagger wears its sheath. Portland Transcript. Brother Ton's Wife. "If you do marry tbat girl, Brother Tom. I'll Lave nothing to do with her. I won't visit her, nor call her sister, nor speak to her!" Aud Lizzie Lawton nuton as oulrarwl and indignant an air as it was possible for her to assume. "What's the objection?" asked Brother uoru in ills cool way, flxiug his large, calm eyes upon the nrettv face of his sister, as she sat uneasily swaying half uruuuu uuu uacK again on me piano stool. "Objection!" Theyounglady'scberry lip curled. "Who la she? What is she?" "A sweet-tempered, riglit-thoughted, true-hearted young woman, who will make me a good little wife. Are you answered, sister mine?" "A sewing-girl!" said Lizzie con temptuously. "What our mother was, as I have been told, before her marriaire." answered Brother Tom. "And, if my eyes have not deceived me, she has been a Bewiug woman ever since, or, at least, ever since ray recollection of her." "That's another thing," said the sis ter. "Mother was superior to her class, and has risen above It." "Suppose I answer your objection to Harriet, and say tbat she is superior to ner class, and will rise above it? What men i aiy lather made a good matri monial venture, and I may do the same?1 "But why, Brother Tom," urged the sister, "don't you choose a wife from anions those on vour own IrvpI ? "What do you mean by those on our own level i lei us understand each other." "From among those who move in our own circles. rora tUe educated, refined and accoinnlished ." "Such as the Misses Walton, for in. Ktnli.9 "Yes: or the Misses Eden." "Whoe father supports them in idle ness, and extwet-s the young men who marry them to do the same. Now, Lizzie, the fact of the business is. I like Mary Eden very well, and once came so near falling in love with her that I was really frichtened. I did not go near iter pretty face for six months after I felt the first movement of the tender pas sloti." "Dear Mary! O, lorn ! Why not marry lier? I could love her as my own Bisier." 1 1 r. . . . . . - ... . wi auoru it, petty. I'm but a poor young man, and have ouly my tal ents aud industry to help me forward in the world. Mary can't do anything her- i wiimu expect me to put her In an establishment but little less costly than the one her father owns." "Oh ! but, Tom, there'll be no neces sity ior going to uouse-keeplng at first. And then, you know, her father is well I . T .1 i i. ... . . vu iu hjo nuuu, uuu lie II give ner 8 nouse una lurnisti it, no doubt, when she is married." But Tom shook his head. "Mary Eden's father," he replied, -may or may not ue ncn. My own private opinion is that he is living up to, it not a nine ooyonu uis income. And as to tbo house and furniture which Mary's husband is going to get, that is something very fine to feed a fancy upon. Tho real bricks aud mortar is auoiuer aiialr." "Oh! but Mr. 'Edon la rlf.Ii Tnm It Tho rich men of to-day are our poor . ..-"Jurrow, .Lizzie. I wouldn't give the snap of a Auger for a rich fath tMn as t dePendence. I mean to afpVr m78?lf an hone8t Purpose, and want a0lencK And as for a w fe, I man, wonderfully given to the work of taking care of myself. I hannen to h at the bottom of the ladder, iSFlf IcvS get to the top of it, my own strength will carry mo there. Now, a wife on my back, instead of on the rounds of the ladder, keeping step with me upward, would bo a dead weight, and keep me at or near tho foot forever. No, no. petty, I cannot afford one of your fin ished boarding-school misses for a wife tho luxury is too expenslvo for me. So I am going to marry a cirl who knows something of real life a true. good, patleut, enduring, self-denying, sweet, darling little body, who is not asnamcu to earn ner living with her needle. And I can tell you what, Dolly, I only wish you were more like Harriet Pdrker; there would be forty chances In favor of your marrying a man oi sense wnere you nave one now. Don't you know that a now society has been formed among the young men, and that some of the very best 'catches' among them have signed a nleduo not to marry any gin wno is not willing to commence matrimonial lifo with two rooms and a kitchen, and who doesn't know how to bake, cook aud sow, and to wasu anu iron in tuc nargain? lam me president." "Preposterous!" exclaimed Lizzie. "You'll cry some other word when you get on the old maids' list, and see your place filled in the homo of some man tnar. is a mau bv a woman who was not ashamed of useful employment wnen sui? was a gin. i can tell you wnat, myuainty little sister, Mere's a reform at work, and men wortli havintr are beghlulug to choose between no marriage aud marriage with girls of plainer notions and more useiul accom plishments than aro possessed try the butterflies who lounge on sofas nil day, knlttlug zephyr or reading novels. So make up your mind for reform or old- tnaiaism. Ana now, as in all pmbabll Ity you understand that I am Quito In earnest about marrying Harriet Purker, I hope you will reconsider your hasty resolution about not speaking to your sister-in-law. The loss, let me tell you, will be all on your own side." Brother Tom understood his own po sition entirely. He was not a tnun to stoop below himself iu marrying. Ho could not unite himself with one who was ignorant and unrefined against that hist generously cultivated soul would have revolted. But ho wanted a real, not (an artificial woman one who could take her place beside him, as ho bad said, on the lowest round of for tune's ladder, and keep step with him upward. Such a one lie had found in Harriet Parker, aud ho was indepeudeut enough to make her his wife. Lizzie was not long in discovering, af ter Brother Tom actually cot married. and commenced house-keeping in two rooms with his cheerful, earnest-minded wife, that her new sister had about her something that insensibly won tho love, commanded the respect, and almost ex torted the admiration of all who were so fortunate as to make her acquaintance. "Marriage, they say, makes or mars a man," the brother overheard Lizzie once saying, in an undertone, to a lady friend. "But It will not mar the for tunes of Brother Tom. He's got just the wife to keen him aloncrin ihpwnrlil and one that will grace any position to which tuey may arise." "My own sentiments exactlv. neltv." spoke out Brother Tom. "She's a jewel, and worth a thousand of your paste and tinsel women. Didn't I tell you so? But you couldn't believe me. Now. if you'll go and apprentice yourself to a arees-mauer, or a milliner, or learn to ao any userul work useful, not sim ply ornamental, I mean I will recom mend you to tho new president of the society I told you about. I had to re sign when I got married. He's a splen- aiu specimen, anu will make a husband wormy or a queen." Iceland's. Millennial. Tho people of Iceland are now cele brating the thousand anniversary of tuetr ancestors' establishment there. In. golf was the name of the first settler. He landed in August, S74, with his family and servants, from his own shin at Rejklanes, near Iteyklavik, tho pres ent capital of the island. He was ac companied by ins brother-in-law, who also brought his family and servants with him. During this thousand years the Icelanders have maintained el vilizn. Hon and culture, and have added some thing to the literature of the world. At first the island was a dependency of Nor way, but from tho ninth century to the middle of the thirteenth it was a repub lic. Then it came again under tho Nor wegian kings, from whom, on tho an nexation of Norway to Denmark, It fiassed uuder the Danish crown, to which t has since been attached, with tho ex ception of a brief period of two mouths in low, wnen it was conquered by a Danish adventurer named Jorgcn jor genson. In 1S27 the population had been reduced bv famine aud epidemics to 40,000. In 16G0, according to the Danish census, it had increased to CO, 7G3 souls. The millennial celebration, which is now so take place, will be at tended by a few strangers from other conntries, and by the King of Denmark, who is expected' to confer upou the Ice landers a uew constitution. They areau industrious, hardy people, living by fish ing and agriculture Their mode f life is exceedingly simple, salt fish being an important article of diet; and as there is no coal and very little wood ujkiu the Hand, cow dung is used as almost the only fuel. Iu winter they keep thein cel ves comfortable by crowding in small, closo rooms, aud making animal heat serve in lieu of fire. Gkace Greenwood's Trocbles. I have all along had a dim, dleagreeahle impression that for much that I have had done by strangers iu Colorado I have paid exceptionally high prices, and I have lately discovered the secret of It. I am popularly supposed to be that fortune-favored dame, the wlfo of Mr. J. B. LIppiucott, the eminent and opulent Philadelphia publisher, and am ofleu charged accordingly. Iu vain I deny tho soft but injurious impeach ment. I bear the ills without the solaces of great wealth. This mistake has been the cause of trouble to me for years past, by burdttiing me with huge rolls of manuscript from ambitious and Impe cunious young writers, accompanied by touching requests that I would use my influence with my good husband toward speedy publication aud handsome re muneration. I half believe an action for damages would stand against J. B. L. But I forbear. Heaven only knows what he has suffered from this same popular fallcay this fictitious but un divorcible union. Corretpondencc X. Y. Times. Mrs. Olipbaut, in her recent uoveh "For Love and Life," shows her bound less sympathy with all tho griefs that pareuts suffer from the self-will aud the wrong-doing of children, aud she touches one sorrow that is often borne, but sel dom confessed, when she says: "What must be the feeling of a woman full of high aspirations, noble generosities, and perhaps an unwarrantable personal pride, all intensified by tho Homely clr cumstances of lifo around her, as she sometimes looks upon the absolutely commou-place people whom slio has Drougnt into tne world v" Mrs. Stanton well says, that when marriatre results from n tmn union of in. tollect and spirit, when mothers and uiuers give to tneir Holy oiuccs even the preparation or soul and body that tuo artist gives to the conception of his poem, statue or landscape, then will marriage, maternity aud paternity, acquire a new aacreduess and dignity Sh30bli?ir liV raanbood and worn! anhood will glorify the race.

Cor. rirst nnd Slain Street, IS A SURE CtJKE OR PREVENTIVE For that disease. SAMUEL CORWTN, Proprietor. The history of this medicine cannot better be explained than by Inserting tho following let ter: Pan Francisco, July 2, 1872. My Dear Old Friend, Samuel Corwln: I have no doubt but you will be ranch surprised on receiving this letter, but. perhaps, not moro so, or more gratified, than I was to hear from you. The manner In which I heard from you, and learned of your whereabouts, Is this: I happened to be looking over an Oregon paper and noticed your name.as representative elect, from Tillamook county. The thrill orpleasure which I experienced on reading Is Indescriba ble. Tho many acts of kindnets which I re ceived at your hands long years ago had never been rorgotlen, notwithstanding our corres pondence has been broken ror seventeen years. Well, Sam, I won't attempt to give you more than the outlines of what has transpired with mo since we last corresponded. So many Inci dents ofthe past. In which you and I were con- nccteu, crowd upon my mum iiiut i uumu, think or write ot myself. Does your mind ever revert to tho past, when we first met how you tnetr ntn in na a nartner. when those who should have been my best friends threw off on me how we got snowed In and had to live on potatoes straight for six weeks how good that grizzly meat tasted what n disgraceful retreat we made from our poor Innocent Jack, when wo thought we were bcselged by a grizzly T wen, sam, tnose events oi iaaz irequcnuj iur nlsh subject matter lor my thoughts, and, as I am writing to you, crowd npon my mind, but I will dismiss them for the present to give place to that which will, perhaps, be of greater Inter est to you. I pocKeteu eleven uiousanu uuiiurauui ui ma Dee'p Claim" you gave me In Maraposa, and started for home In June, I Invested lour thousand dollars In real estate In this city, and left it In careof McLane.onrold cabin mate, aiy nmiMtr)ipn has Yielded me a handsome In come, nnd quadrupled In value. I went Into business in jcw iou ciiy.in which a wu 'cv successful sold out two years ago, since which time I have becu traveling in European coun tries. You know I used to have a weakness for traveling well, It has been gratified to my hcart'R content, wmio in rrance i was taaen with the sraall-pox. The lady of the Inn told me that I was fortunate to take the disease at that place, as there was an old small-pox doc tor near by who never fnlled to cure.no matter now uau tne unease; anu sure enougn.i Degan to recover within four hours aflercommenclng to take the mcdiclne.and in twenty-four hours i ici t quite wen. 1 was so mucn eiaieu wiiu the magical effects of tho medicine that I was determined, If possible, to obtain the formula. In which I succeeded, by paying handsomely and promising not to divulge It In France. I see from Oregon papers that you have the disease among you. The enclosed package contains the tormula and sufficient material for family use. I have cured all the cases that I have come In contact with, and find it an In fallible cure and preventive. When you an swer this I will forward sufficient of the mate rial to make you a fortune, as I have ample, and rest assured I reciprocate past favors. I will close for the present and await anx iously your answer. Direct to San Francisco, as I will remain here about two months. Yours, etc, ISAAC RICHARDSON. The following testimonials are from reliable persons: Portland, Sept. 1, 1S73. Statement: My son Henry, now six years of age, had a severe attack ofthe malignant form orscarlct fever about four years ago. My fam ily physician. Dr. Hamlin, of Marysvllle, Cali fornia, told me that tho child had better have died, as he would be afflicted all his life with sores of a scrofulous nature, which he consid ered Incurable. The condition of the child up to last April seemed to confirm the Doctor's opinion, as he never was free from those eruptlous sores. A number of our best pbysl clans had endeavored In vain to give the child relief. At the time I commenced giving htm Dr. Borzeau's Small-pox Remedy the child was l nnnble to open his eyes, his face was a com- - plete mass of Inflammation nnd corruption running from both cars. He took two bottles of the above-named medicine as per directions. In twelve hours from commencing to take the medicine, a favorable change was noticeable, and In less than six weeks all traces of the old affliction had disappeared. JNO.M.FRONK.

Mr. Corwln Dear Sir: I used two bottles ol your small-pox remedy, for scarlet fever. Both ot my cblldred had It, and all the medi cine they u.cd was your small-pox remedy.

I administered Dr. Bor zeau's small-pox remcly according to nccom panylng directions, and in all my experience with that dKease I never needed a more com plete and speedy recovesy. K- O.

I took but 13 doses, and have slnre felt all right. I have no hesltnncy In recommen-llnc It to my friends who may feel any symptoms or small-pox. JAM ES F.
