"as"wr -wn?' wiTy FBLDAY DECEMBER 8, 1876. GOOD-MCIIT. If I could only lay me down to rest. Crossing mv weary hands upon my breast, And shut my troubled eyes without a fear, Knowlncr that thev would never onen here How blissful It must be, both worlds In sight, jo say my urea goou-mgnu If only from the fretting cares of Time, To tnith nternal T at. nnrA mnv cllnib. No longer to count the graves whereon I tread, uut. in one moment ue an comiorieu If such could be, what joy in upward flight. To singmy tired good-night. This flooding tide of yearnings will not cease; J cannot reach to toncii me ups oi reace; Nor can I gather to my sobbing heart The white-winged angels God has setapart, Yet haply I may find them all in sight After some tired good-night. What wonder, then, that I should long to rest, Crossing my weary nanus upon my ureasi, To shut my troubled eyes without a tear. Knowing that tbey would never open here; To say to earth, with heaven alone in sight, My rapturous good-night. A.

"To be sure it is lonesome with neither man nor dog about, I presume I should feel safer if Iunderstood handling a gun, but Idou't emy, according to the way you punctu believe anything will come near in the ate it: day-time.

I5ui sue haa always nveu in tue wnuerness. The howl ot the won and the growl ol the bear were familiar sounds to her. and she had become accustomed to a lonelv life in the woods. So. instead of shutting herself in the house, she went on with her work as usual. After the breakfastdishes were washed aud put away, she brought out her "linen wheel" and went to spinning flax.

This time she saw an astonish- iugsight! Coming down the mountain in the United States Treasury Depatt side from the woods, she beheld a full- meut prior to her marriage.

At length, when the sun was about an hour hieh. she saw her husband emerge from tbe woods tmr the bouse.

"Wny, common sense would tell you what to do: shut the door, take care of yourself and baby, and let the sheep go." "jjo you mini? so, nusoanu V" "Of courseldo. "What else could vou have done?" "You will see if you eoout behind the Darn and iook." "Behind the barn? What do you mean?" "I mean what I sav. Go and look be hind the barn."
