Or, if yncr heartbreak prove too sharp.
Curse me, my friend and live.

Kyes upturned to tbe sky.

Are loving me this hoar;
Mj'-h loves die hard, an earned, we know.
With overwhelming- power.
My love went out as yotus will do
But after many yean;
And In those years I was not glad,
Ani bitter were my teats.
My love was 1 Ike your loan, ssjy friend ;
It met with no return.

In spite of words that I
But yon who tore, and I who laugh.
May part at last In peace;
One day you'll thank ate for my word

KOHtMXB BELLS.
BT TAW
It was coy,caIin, fragrant night In Summer
time, When through the dusky bosh no whisper
Save thirsty meadows mstung far me rain,
i ir woodlands musing with a sell and sleepy
rhyme.
A night when one would dream of dear and
lovely things;
or tender siH ana at 'tilts;
Of Orphean lyre or thmaody of rates;
or songs and sighs and stars and liquid mur
muringa. Thus musing, as I wandered o'er (he drowsy
lawn,
I came upon nmarble basin whits.
And sat mo down hay an a the fountain-sprite-
licyond her damp, gray drapery In the nlght
breese blown.
And as I eat, I looked np; to! there gleamed a
bull,
A sweet-toned bell that once I need to know,
I'P In yon star-lorn belfry long ago.
To-night the nakedness of heaven becomes it
well!
"O Voice of old!" I cned-"thou dear dead
Voice of old.
What sfonld I not to hear thy mellowing
strain
Call back the scattered leaves or life again
Into tbe Book, between the asterisk! of gold!?
Vet hew eonld It reply, that long-disused bell.
From which the rotted rapes hnng scarcely
down;
Whose be lfry-ladder,ln the desk-light brown,
Bent as the hastening spiders spun their webs
a adieu?
Bat hark! Was that tbe whisper or some voice
I knew,
It was so full, so sodden, and so sweet T
Nay! some far-distant bell with languid beat
Rolling np bows Into the horoscope of bine.
Attain ! Ah, sweet delay of rapturous surprise
That weary bell complaining far away.
With silver hammers in tbe shades astray.
Had touched nay voiceless bell to whispered
harmonies.
Back rushed the tide of memory fri .-n isles of
old.
And through the night some nameless angel
came.
Numbered lute' scattered leaves with pen of
naews.
And wrote between the stammering asterisks
of gold!
Wilt-ne'er at soft, still nbrhtlenance to hear
some far-off bell, melesHesM and alear,
I thJnk bow many towers In all the land
Kei p mystic measure to the ringer's ban I.
And .since oar lives, like living bt.'lf, must
ring
lu member, like n bird tbe echoes w!n !
Or Joyously or sadly, as we will,
lim towers reaetve the song on t very biiL
Oh, sweetly ring these bells, in weal or woe!
Ij re's deathless echoes aoft, submissive flow;
And when we, too, in moss-deep silence lie.
Float up forever to the bells on high!

Why will young. men hover around
the light that dazzles and disappoints?
wny will tbey talk over aud over again
the "soft nonsense" which their sires
ami graudsiree did before them to gener
ations of fair ladies less schooled lu the
eold philosophy of modern society? Oc
casionally their rashness brines its re
warn, borne time ago a handsome.
datbing, gallant youth a favorite with
tbe sex left Chicago for Baltimore,
where he met a friend In high social
tanaing, who, very soon, made Dim ac
quainted with some of tbe most beautl
ful women of that beauty-producing
town. Baltimore is famous for .Its
women and its oysters. Tbe latter are
sometimes out of season, hut the former
never. Consequently, there is always
some, attraction In the Queen of the
Chesapeake. Everybody gives the palm
to Baltimore's belles that is, everybody
who has not got a sweetheart some
where eje. Our friend from Chicago
attended a wedding recently in the
Monumental City, and there met a be
witching maiden, rare and radiaut as
Eve ere Adum claimed her. The usual
commonplaces led to a conversation that
became somewhat significant. What
with her pearly teeth, luminous eyes,
graceful form aud luxuriant hair, not to
speak of tbe winning tones of her voice,
tbe Chicago youth became quickly fas
cinated, and was impudent enough
lo express hi rat-elf upon tbe question
of danger to bachelor peace iu a
city tbat boasted so many lovely
daughters. Of course, when ibis kind
of language is addressed to a woman, It
is but natural to expect that she will
appropriate tbe spirit or it to uersen.
The damsel listened quietly, and at the
end of the dissertation said she knew
the Colonel's friend and himself were
equally afflicted with the tender passion,
aud that iu the morning she would send
Ibe former a recipe that would cure the
disease. No more was thought about
the matter until tbe subjoined commu
nication, in the young lady's handwrit
ing, but not signed, arrived at the hotel
where the friends were stopping :
'An Infallible Remedy for the Passion
Iiove. First, vou must open the brain
of consideration and let out tbe blood of
immoderate atlectiou. Then administer
tbe following prescription, viz.: Take of
tbe blossoms of sound judgment, one
handful; of jtatienee, five bandfuls; one
handful of the root of understanding;
twelve ounces of resolution, prudence
and discretion; five ounces of dislike
and resentment. Let them simmer to
gether In tbe brain eight and forty
hours; then strain from it the dregs of
melancholy into one spoonful or rorget
fulness ; sweeten a dose of the former
with tbe sugar of contentment iuto the
heart, and stop it with the cork of in
diilerence. The ingredients are to be
found at the House of Iteeolution, next
door lo Reason, in Contentment, the
town of Fortitude, or at any ofllce Iu
Courtship street, Marrlagetown."
The effect of this document on the
lovers was not soul-lnsnlring. They say
that soeh philosophy might answer for
a convent or a monastery, but lias no
place in the living, loving, earnest world
to which they belong. Chioago Time.
J lst Tit k K. A case i n vol v i ng tiie
title to some marsh lands was recently
ou trial before Jodge Crafje, of Oakland,
Oil., wbo is appropriately named, as lie
is fix feet four inches iu bei;lit. Sev
eral of the defendants were named Bird,
While the lawyers were waiting for the
court to open, oue suggested that there
ought to be a change of venue on the
ground of relationship, Inasmuch as the
Judge was soeh n prominent member of
the bird family, -un, no,- saiu an

ami be is just tbe oue to trade through

Wl cat fiHpnrl sail X rwili more than audit
else was that he received no appflealioii

the public after tbe llood was, that tbe
veteran navigator never. tried to get up

The Modern Fraud.
Tbe bassst fraud on earth is agrienl
tore; tbe deadliest ignitatuM that ever
glittered to beguile ami dazzled to he
tray is agriculture. I speak with feel
ing on this subject, for I've beeu rIU
tered and beguiled aud dazzled and de
stroyed by this same arch deeefver. She
has made me a thousand promises aud
broken every one of them. She baa
promised me Summer squashes, and tbe
worms have eaten them ; Winter
squashes, and the bugs have devoured
them. She has promised cherries, and
the curculio ha? slung them, aud they
contain living thing', uncomely to the
eve and unsavory lo lite taste. She has
prouilseu slrawoerrie, ami tne young
chickens have devoured them, aud the
eye oannot see them. She has promised
tomatoes, ami oh I liens nave encom
passed them, ami the hand cannot reach
them.
Xo wonder Cain killed his brother: he
was a tiller of the grruind. The wonder
is that he didn't kill hi father, aod
then weep because he hadn't a grand
father to kill, Ko doubt his early rose
potatoes, for wliicli be pahl Adam ? UO
a barrel, had been cut down by bugs
from tbe headwaters of the Euphrates.
His Pennsylvania wheat hud been Win
ter killed, aud wasn't worth cutting.
His Norway oats had goue to straw,
ami would tint yield live pecks per acre;
and black Spanish watermelons had
beeu stolen by boys, who had pulled up
tbe vines, broken down bis patent picket
fence, and written scurrilous doggerel
all over iiis back gate. No wonder he
felt mad when he saw Abel whistling
along with his fine French merinos
worth $8 00 a bead, ami wool going up
every day; no wonder lie wanted to kill
somebody, and thought he'd practice on
Abel, aihi oau-s getting tiruiiK was
was not at all surprising; he had become
a liusnanuraan; lie had thrown away
magnificeut 'opportunities; he might
have had a monopoly of any profession
or business. Had he studied medicine,
there would not have been another doe
tor within a thousand miles to call him
quack, and every family would have
bought a bottle or Noah's Compound
Kxtract of Gopher Wood and Antl-
Deluge Syrup. As a politician, he
would have carried his own ward solid,
and controlled two-thirds of the dele
gates in every convention. As a law
yer, he would have beeil retained in
every case tried In the Ararat quarter
sessions, or tho Old Ark high court of
udmiralty. But heihrew away all these
advantages aud took (o agriculture; for
a long time the ground wus so wet that
be could raise nothing but sweet lhig
aud bulrushes, aud these at last became
a drug iu the market. What wonder
that, when be did get hall a peck of
grapes ttiai were not stung to death by
Japhet's honey bees, he should have
made wine and drowned Ills sor
rows in a Mowing bowl.
The fact is, agriculture would demor
alize a saint. I was almost a saint when
I went'into it; lam a demon now. I
am at war with everything; I fight my
self out of bed at four o'clock, when all
my better nature tells me lo be still till
seven; I fight myself In the garden to
work like a brute, wjien reason and in
stinct tells me to stay In tbe house and
enjoy myself like a man. I tight the
pigs, the chickens, the moles, the birds,
the' bugs, tbe worms everything in
which there is the breath of life; I fight
the docks, the burdocks, the mulleins,
tbe thistles, the grapes, tbe weed
the whole vegetable kingdom; I
fight tbe heat, the frost, the ruin, the
hail in short, I fight the universe, and

Antiquity of Wheat. Wheat has
been in use for bread since the earliest
antiquity. Its origin cauuot be authen
tically traced, nor are the millions who
use it much concerned ou that head, as
long as tbey have plenty of the Hour
which the nourishing article produces.
It was introduced into this country, ac
cording to a writer iu the American
Miller, In. 1539. -As to its cultivation,
this may be true, but there is good rea
son to believe that it was brought over
with Columbus In one or his voyages at
an earlier period. Its discovery is at
tributed to have been uy chance ou tins
continent, the story of wbloh runs as
follows : A slave of Cortcz found a few
grains of wheat in a parcel of rice, and
showed them to his master, who ordered
them to be planted. Tho result showed
that wheat would thrive well on Mexi
can soil, and to-day one of tho finest
wheat valleys iu the world is found near
the Mexican capital. From Mexico the
cereal found its way lo Peru. A mouk
introduced it at Quito, Ecuador ; aud it
Is said Ibut the jar which contained the
seed Is still preserved by the monks of
Quito. Wheat was Introduced into the
present limits of tbe Uuited States con
temporaneously witli tho settlement of
the country by tbe English aud Dutch.
