A PERFECT POBM.
The G.'ty first perlrct poem it that .t
drIMct to hl wife by Samuel Binhop, a wo.-
thy who passed away in 1795. It was written
on the fourteenth anniversary of their wcii-
dinf.
"Thee, Mary, with this ring I wed,"
So fourteen years I said.
Behold another ring! For what?
0 wed thee o'er again? Why not?
With that first riDg I married youth,
Grace, beauty, innocence, and truth;
Tase long admired sense long levered,
And all my Molly then app arcd.
If (he, by merit disclosed,
PrOT twice the we man I supposed,
I plead that double merit now
To justify a double vowj
Here then to-day (with faith as sure,
.Wis ardor as intense, as pure
As when, amid the rites divine,
I took thy troth, and plighted mine
.To.tbftnAweet girl my second ring
A token and a pledge I bring.
.With thi;rltig I wed, till death us part
Thy riper virtues to my heart
Those virtues which, before untried,
Tbi wife has add-d to the bride;
Those virtues, whose progessive claim,
Endearing wedlock's very name,
Mr loul enjoys, my song approves,
For eontcienoe sake, as well as love s.
And why ? They show me every hour
Honor's high thought, affection's power.
Discretion's deed, sound judgment's sen
tence, And teach me all thing but repentance.
TBBFEOPLE OF THE PEN.
The people of the pen,
The people of the pen,
The brightest of our women,
And the bravest of our men I
Ob the pioket lines of progress,
They are keeping watch and ward,
Where the reaper swings the sickle,
And the soldier wields the sword,
Their snowy scrolls are fluttering,
Like doves, around the globe,
They're folding all the land of Ood
Within one starry robe;
On all the bleak and sunless hills
They build the beacon-fires,
And set the danger signals out
On all the tallest spires;
Tb flrey-footed coursers
Of the lightning thny have caught,
And made them menage-bearers
Id the parliament of thought;
They're a mighty army moving,
And they master thousands ten,
And pall the world behind them,
The people of the pen.
Tb people of the pen,
The ptople of the pent
Wherever human font has trod,
Borne strolling scribe has been;
yell find them in the frigid North,
Beyond the lone "Jeanuette,"
In the desert lands of Siher,
Where the cheurlets exiles fret;
Va'll find them on the Congo,
Ye'll fiud them on the Nile,
Yell hear them in the jungle
Of the snake and crookodile;
They slumber with the Bedeuin,
They sip the ninny wine
Upon the Quadtlquiver,
And along the banks of Rhine;
The Argonauts of every clime,
They wander far and free,
They scale the widest mountain,
And they sail the widott sea;
The pilgrims if Bjhemia,
There's naught escapes their ken,
The painters of the universe,
The peopled the pen. T. II. Matthews.
The Rightful Heir.
For Bomo weeks past tlio engagement
betwecr) tlio Earl of Ueiiuvmy mul Miss
Milliccnt Moylo had liecn olironiolotl in
the fashlonablo intelligence) of nowia
pen, and tlio miirringo was appointed to
Jake ploco in July. Thoro wore many
who considered Miss Moylo u lucky girl,
(or Lord Deauvrny was not only of ancient
funlly, young, immensely wealthy and
good looking, but ho was popular ovory
where, owing to his sunny temper and
upright character, Lord lloauvray had
been morry without being dissolute. Hu
WM the most irreproachable gentleman,
Just M lii betrothed, Miss Moylo, was tlio
ftlreet flowor nmong that Ixwquet of
pretty girls who had lioon presented tit
court in tlio same hoasou us Hereon. .Mil
llcent Moylo was a rich heiress as well as
It pretty gill ; but this was ulxiut all that
could bo said of her. Her father, .losiah
Movie, a bill discounter of Ixmibaid
street, was a new man of the city phi
tocrsxy. It was said that the poor's rela
tives had been much scandalized on hear
ing of his lordship's intention to marry
the daughter of it man whoso antecedents
were just a little, misty.
One sunny afternoon, just a fortnight
beforo the dato fixed for the mairiago, it
brougham with 11 coronet on the panels
clattered up to Mr, Moylo's Ihimiioh
Iioum and Lord lloauvray alighted,
I1
tit
haitlv iMle. Tlio hall inirtor was star
tled bv his aiiiMMmuco, not loss than ty
tne DruKCil voice in wmi'ii nu iiitiuuvu u
1 I I'll I Il'f
Mr. Moylo had loft. Just then Mr. Moylo
himself emitted out, all glorious with n
geranium in his emit and n white hat
perched a-ooek on tho top of his poiuteil
m-av head.
"Ah, lloauvray 1" critxl he, with dioor-
ful welcome, mil iierceivuig the look on
the peer's face, hu exclaimed : "WhutV
the matter with you? You am not ill, I
hooef"
"No. not ill. but I want to sivak to you
in private," said l-onl Ilomivniy, quite
lioanojy.
"Shall wo go oh" in tho plueton," stam
mered Mr. Movie, full of uneasiness.
"No, into your room, but lot us lo uuito
alone," rvpentrtl tho earl, and he hiniKlf
led Uio way to tno oinm
Flumping down into tho nrm-ehair at
the writini; table. Mr. Moylo stared in ih-
wilderment while the peer Ml down op
postte ami pivHuiceti it nine euvviopu wun
several black bonis. Laying Oil on the
tADie, iwaiiyruy iiiumm iit uuuti on u uuu
looked into tho liiiHiioier's eyes.
"Mr. Moylo," Mid he, wtdly, "I luvo
painful communication to make, but I
will not beat about the bush. I find that
I havo no legal right to tho title which I
bear, or to the fortune which I am
spending."
"Eh! what?" exclaimed Mr. Moylo with
a gasp-
"I made the discovery this morning, in
rummaging through a Itox of deeds,
continued Lord Ueauvray, whoso voice
grew steadier. "You know that I inher
ited tho title from my uncle. He was tho
eldest of three brothers. My father, the
youngest, died while J was a uoy ; my
second undo died a few years later, and
wo fancied ho had iieen a bachelor, but it
apiears that ho had been clandestinely
married, and Iclt a son a lau wiium vou
know, by the way, for I have seen him in
your house. His name is Timburel.
"Timburell" echoed air. aioyic, wim
start. "Young Timburcl, wlio uscu to
bo clerk in our firm, and whom I dis
missed for presuming to make love to our
Millie 1"
"I was not aware of tlioso particulars,
said LoidBcauvray,"but young '1 imlmrel
is the man ; he bears his mother's name
she was an actress and wo used to
think he was tho natural son of my
second uncle ; but his parents were law
fully married."
"And do you mean to say that Tim
btirel a vulgar, conceited upstart, who is
living on his wito at this moment, with
not a shilling in lus pocKcts, i ii uo oouiui
-do you mean to say he has become
Earl of Ueauvray 1"
"Not onlv that, but ho becomes abso
lute owner of all my estates and property.
My poor father left mo a mere pittance.
When I put Timburel in possession of his
own, 1 snail nave notning mil my com
mission m the Guards and about ijou a
year."
"Come, come, don't say such liosh!"
blurted out old Moylo, grasping his nose
again. It had just occurred to him that
Lord Ueauvray was Hoaxing.
"Ho wants to find out whether our
Millio loves him or his title," reflected tho
moneyed man. But in a monicut tins
idea was dispelled by Lord lloauvray dis
playing tho contents of his envelope a
marriage certificate and a number of let
tors which substantiated tho story. Then
he entered into explanations. It seems
that his uncle, the Hon. Col. do Vray, be
ing in garrison at Malta, had privately
married an Italian actress named Tim
burelli. After a year's union this fickle
person deserted him, leaving her child to
his care, and soon aferwards sho died.
Under tho circumstances the Colonel,
though ho provided for tho boy's main
tninenco. deemed it convenient to conceal
his marriage, and ovcntually ho died sud
denly, without having acknowledged it.
Annarcntlv. however, his conscience had
tormented him, so that while lacking tho
moral coinage to speak tho truth during
his lifetime ho had lo tovidenco by which
it might bo known after his death. Un
fortunately, tho envelope containing his
marriago certificate had lain mixed up
with some other documents in a box
which Lord Ueauvray (who inherited tho
deceased's papers) hod never thought of
oxanuning till that morning, when no
had begun to sort his family papers in
view of his marriage.
Suddenly tho bill-discounter crumpled
all tho papers in his hand with a fovcrish
grasp, and looked at Loan! Ueauvray.
Thoro was an expression in his dull oyes
as of a light behind an unelcaiihcd imno
of glass. "I say," ho whispered, "have
you told anybody besiues mo oi mis
seciet?"
"No. I camo to you first, as m duty
bound."
"Then what provenU us from destroy
ing theso papers. I shan't say anything
about it. That young Timburel is a
skunk and a snob ; it will bo ridiculous to
see him a lord, and he'll ruin himself and
go mad with conceit so foolish is he. I
say, Ueauvray, if I thiow this envelope
in tlio tiro who win Know anything
alnnitit?"
"I shall," answered Ixird Ueauvray,
and ho held out his hand for tho papers.
Tho shifty glanco of tho moneyed man
quailed in tho light of unquenchable
honesty in that of ono who hapjiened to
bo a nobleman in something more than
tho name.
There was a pretty hubbub in society
when it Uvanio known that the Earl of
lloauvray or Oeorgo do Vray, as ho now
simply culled himself was going to aban
don his little estates to a man who had
lieon a city clerk.
Of course. Oeorgo do Vray's marriage
was postponed. Tlio tutu in his foitunos
had thrown so much business on his
bauds that it was impossible ho could do
oto a month to honeymooning until it
was all dlsiiosod of; los'ulos which, ho felt
bound to make Mr. Moylo tho oiler of 10-
loasing lus daughter from her engagement.
At first this proposal was liooh-iioohcd
equally by the bill discounter and Miss
Moylo herself. Millio, who wits not unite
so sensible as pretty, wept a good i eal
at not becoming a counters; then she
wept at tho nobility of Ooorgo's action,
which ovorjUxly was praising.
Now, thoro was staying in tho house oft
tho Moyles a poor little cousin of Millies
named Oertnulo IJrown. Sho was a soft
eyed brunette of eighteen, very quiet and
lovable, who acted as companion to Mil io
and had to bear much from tho whimsical
humors of this spoiled child. Oertio had
always received marked kindness from
Lord Ueauvray, who treated her as if she
had Uvn a sister, and she looked upon
him with admiration as tho most noble
being she had oer seen. His renuncia
tion of rank and wealth had struck her
as an act of sui prising heroism, and she
could not so much as allude to it without
the tears gushing from her eyes. A
shrewd, merry little tiling, too, in her way,
she was cupable of discerning tho ditl'cr
ence that existed Mween a genuine man
of honor like Ixml Ueauvray, and a mere
man of money liko her Uncle Moyle.
It was this enthusiasm of ixxir Oertio
UrownV ou jwor Oeorgo do V.ay's behalf
that began to make tho cup of Mr. Moylo's
bitterness overflow. That worthy gentle
niau had taken to musing that there was
an eud now to his chance of sitting in
WILLAMETTE FARMER: PORTLAND, OBTCflON. JUNE
parliament, getting a baronetcy and all
that. , , .
Poor Gertie held her tongue, although
her heart throbbed wofully. She had
heard that the new Lord Beau vray, tho
ex-Mr. Timburel, had been invited to din
ner on a certain evening, and she began
to suspect that her precious uncle was
forming a plan for making of this former
clerk of his a suitor for Millie's hand.
Her intuition was not at fault. Old
Moylo hastened to mako peace with his
discharged clerk, whose vanity was easily
tickled. Ho became a regular victor to
tho bill-discounter's, taking care necr to
come at times when ho was likely to meet
George. His visits displeased Gertie
Brown, but ho easily succeeded in winning
the favor of the discounter's daughter,
who correspondingly lessened her liking
for George, and one day when she cast on
aspersion upon him which Gertie could
not help resenting, she screamed, " If you
arc so fond of Mr. do Vray, why don't you
get him to marry you? That would bo
two beggars together."
Naturally, Gertie went to her room to
have a cood crv. but from that day she
ceased speaking about George and becamo
very circumspect in Her demeanor towards
him. When ho called to sec Millie she
left the room. George soon noticed these
tactics, for his interviews with Mr. Movie's
daughter were growing more and more
irksome by reason of Millie's coldness and
irritability. At tho least thing sho would
snap and sulk, and ono afternoon when
George innocently mane somo inquiry
about Miss Brown she fired up in a jeal
ous pet. " You seem very anxious about
Miss Brown. I am not obliged to show
her off in tho drawing-room whenever
visitors come. She is only a pauper
cousin whom wo have taken in from
charity."
" It's queer charity, dear, if you talk of
it in that way," laughed George. " I don't
consider poverty a disgrace, either."
" No, but it's very inconvenient," said
Millie, still querulously, " and that reminds
me, if wo marry I suppose you don't mean
to live on my money. Papa says his
banks might break and all sorts of things.
So I suppose you will do somet 'ing to
get an independent income?"
" Yes," answeied George, coloring
deeply, "I have applied for an ex
change into tho line, and think of going
out to the war on tho Indian frontier. I
shall have a licutenanant-coloners rank
so if you wait for me two yean, Millie, I
will return with a new career and perhaps
an incoins liefore me."
" Oh, wait two years to become a soldier's
wife and go out to live in baking inuian
heat 1 " exclaimed Millie, pouting. "I
never bargained for that! "
Just at that moment Gertie Brown
came in. Sho had a message to deliver
to Millio from Mr. Movie, and blushed as
she crossed the room whero tho pair of
quarrelling lovers sat.
" Miss Brown," said George, rising to
shuko hands with her, " I wish you good
by, for I havo just been telling Miss
Movie that. I am coine to tho war in
India"
" You are going to tho warl Oh, Mr. do
Vray if anything should happen to
vou!" exclaimed Gertie, and the tears
started to her eyes.
"Thank you for those tears," said George,
gratefully. " I shall know that ono per
son here, at least, will feel an interest.
Now, give mo as a keepsake that red book
marker you aro holding in your hand. I
will bring hack the ribbon with something
hanging to it." ....
" Tho Victoria Cross, perhaps,' tittered
Millie, rather uncomfortably. " I declare
that's quite poetical. Well, good-by, Mr.
do Vray ; wo part as friends, don't wo? "
"Excellent friends," answered George,
as ho lifted both her hands to his lips and
kissed them playfully.
Ono year passed. Thoro had been a
triumph of tho British arms in India, and
tho name of Col. do Vray was associated
with it. His name was in everybody's
mouth. Ho had received promotion and
other honors, and was returning to Eng
land after the termination of tho cam
paign as Major General Sir George do
Vray.
As for Millio Moylo, sho was betrothed
to the Earl of Ueauvray, and when Sir
Geoigo arrived in London ono of the first
things ho lead in tho paper was that the
marriage between this young lady and his
cousin was to tako place in a week.
Ho no longer cared now. Ho went to
Mr. Moylo's houso on tho very day of his
return in tlio afternoon and was ushered
into the dining-room, where luncheon was
taking place. Ho was received liko a
hero, for Mr. Moylo liked to bo on good
terms with successful men, and Millio was
anxious to obtain something liko forgive
ness for her jilting. Sho received it fully
and freely, so far as could bo judged from
tho young general's manner, for ho was
frank and pleasant, but after tho first
greetings were ovci ho addressed himself
principally to poor little uertio urown,
who sat radiant and trembling.
At last, when a toast had been drunk
to George's honor and Millie's happiness
honest Mr. Moylo acting as toastmastcr
the general drew u parcel from his pocket
and extracted from it Gertio's book
marker. There were hanging from it tho
eross of the Math, a Victoria Cross and
something else a wedding ring.
" Will you take all three, Gertie? " said
Oeorgo, approaching Millie's little cousin.
' Mmvo, Sir George! " exclaimed Millio,
clapping her iiauds, though sho turned a
little pale. "I always said that Gertie
mul vou worn intended for each other."
" So did I," wtid worthy Mr. Moylo, " but
I say hullo! what's that?"
There had boon n loud knock at tho
door and a footman entered with n tele
cram on a trav. Mr. Moylo oix'iicd tho
missivo and uttered an exclamation of
horror and dismay. " Great heavens, my
lord, read thisl " ho faltered.
Tlio telegram announced that tho new
Lord Boauvray had been killed in a rail
way accident. So tho Indian hero got
his titles and estates again.
Old Moylo had mink into s chair, help

Love And a Ducking.
"This is my daughter Caroline.
Car-
ric, Mr. Sloane."
Ham- Sloane bowed, and pretty, win
some Carrie Hervcy bowed in return.
Harry had picked out tho farm as a
residing place during a business trip.
After Carrie's father had introduced tho
young people he went to the barn, leav
ing tho pair seated upon the porcli.
"A pleasant spo this," said Harry, af
ter ho had finished admiring the pretty,
dimpled hands which tho girl had care
lessly laid upon the light blue serge dress.
" You like it?" she asked.
" Like does but half express my admi
ration. It seems as though l snouia oe
perfectly satisfied to linger here forever,"
responded Harry.
"But surely, Mr. Sloane, the attractions
of city life must surpass those of such a
humdrum locality as this."
"On the contrary, I prefer what you
call the humdrum locality."
And why, may I ask?"
' Because, because well, I cannot fully
explain my reason. I suppose it is be
cause I am heartily sick of city ways."
" And so you como here for a change?"
" Yes, I believe that is tho reason."
The pair sat there upon the porch, talk
ing upon one subject and the other until
the evening shadows fast deepened into
darkness.
Finally Harry arose and said :
" As I am somewhat tired with my
journey, 1 will retire.
Tne girl caueu ncr miner, mm uiu mi
ter, taking a lamp led the way to the front
chamber on the upper floor. Harry took
nnhis travelinc-bac. and after a "good
nieht" to Carrie, he followed tho old gen
tleman up the stairs, and shortly after
ward was soundly sleepinR.
" He is handsome and so is 'Jack. He
is gentlemanly, and Jack is not quite so
easy. He talks and acts liko a real gen
tleman, and Jack can hardly ever find
tho right word to say when it is needed.
Jack loves me, and I I wonder do I re
ally and truly love Jack."
Thus Carrie mused after she disrobed
herself for the night, and sat by the win
dow. ,
Strange, sho had never questional the
fact as to whether or not she loved Jack.
Sho had always taken it for granted that
she did love the handsome, brown-faced
farmer boy who had accompanied her
home from singing in the parish-room on
practicing nights in tho winter, and taken
her to picnics and on excursions in sum
mer. Theirs had been an affection without
any question, any doubt or mistrust to
mar the serenity of its flow.
Two, three weeks pass rapidly, and
Harry Sloane finds himself musing over
tho possibility of a wife. Carrie's lovely
face, her pretty figure, and her grace have
been the wholo cause of his perplexity.
Before he met her ho never had a thought
of ever marrying.
Ho had espied a fine young farmer on
several occasions talking to Carrie at the
gate, but sho had told him that it was
Jack, a schoolmate and life-long friend.
Ono evening Harry was seated in tho
parlor talking to Carrie, when a tap
halted at the door, and Jack asked her to
tako a ride. Again, when Harry asked
her to tako a row on tho lake she said
sho was very sorry, but that sho had an
engagement with Jack.
" Miss Hcrvoy, that Jack seems to tako
up all of your spare time," exclaimed
Harry.
" Excuso me Mr. Sloane, not quite all.
I believe I am at your service, when not
otherwise engaged, most of the time."
And turning on his heel Harry would
leave Carrie. This soon becamo common,
and finally Harry was determined to end
all by asking Carrie for her hand.
" Miss Hervey, will you walk with me
along tho river sido this evening," asked
Harry ono evening after tea.
" I I don't know."
"Of course, it is another engagement.
No matter, I return to tho city to-morrow
morning," interrupted Harry.
" You aro wrong, JHr. bloano ; 1 havo
no other engagement. To prove it, I will
go to tho river with you."
Sho put on her pretty wide-brimmed
Gainsborough and walked by his side to
the river.
" It is pretty," sho said, out upon tho
lake, which reflected each shining star
fleecy, floating cloud upon its mirror-liko
surface.
"Pretty! Yes, beyond all others I havo
ever looked tton." Something in its
tones caused Carrio to look up quickly,
and she blushed as sho found his eyes
gazing straight into hers. "Carrie, I I
lovo you.
There it was said. The die was cas-t,
and Harry's heart jumped up into his
mouth.
" Mr. Sloane "
" There now, Carrie, don't Mr. Sloane
mo. Can't you call mo Harry?"
" I might that is, if I had known you
longer."
" You call that fanner Jack."
"Oh, Jack and I were children to
gether. That makes a difference you see."
" I suppo&o so. Mut Carrie, tell me,
do you lovo mo?" aked Harry, trying to
take her hand in his, a liberty which sho
did not seem disposed to permit.
" I I lot us go back now, Harry,"
asked Carrie,
" I lovo you, Carrie. Will you not giyj
mo just ono small ray of hoiiof '
14 1 I don't know," responded she.
Harry seemed very much in earnest.
Jack had never, during all tho years of
their association, spoko of love. She, like
other girls in common, had a deal of ad
miration tor a bravo man, and Harry
Sloano seemed valiant iiersonage to Car
rie, since ho had dared to tell her that he
lovmllier.
"Who docn know, ihmV asked Harry.
1. ISM.
T cannot: I please let's go
back
home now," uttered Carrio.
" Shall wo row the boat, the little boat
down there, up to the stream which flows
by the house?" said Harry, pointing to a
small boat near them.
"If you wish?" said Carrie.
' They got into the boat, and, pushing
it from tho shore, Harry plied the oars.
A silence fell upon them after the boat had
gone a short distance.
They reached the turn of tho water
whero the small stream poured its crystal
waters into the lake. Harry turned the
boat around horror! the frail affair
struck against a rock, and m another
instant they were both precipitated into
the water. Harry, as he went over, man
aged to grasp hold of the boat, and Car
rie, as good luck would have it, found her
self securely upon the rock.
" Miss Hervey," said Harry, " we are in
a nice predicament."
" I'm wet through and through," cned
Carrie.
Slrnntrolv rniOlltrll.tllO tllOrOUEll WCUing
seemed to take all the romance out of
wi, Him in tho water, up to their
waists, Harry hanging on to the shattered
boat for dear life, and Carrie seated upon
lm imt. some ten or more, yawls from
shore, all all affairs connected with lovo
were utterly vague to them.
"What shall we do?" said Carrie.
Harry did not reply. Swim he could not,
n,l link-new if he once lost his hold he
would go down, down to a watery grave.
T I am sorry we started. I I Miss,
Ar;a Hot Hervev. we shall both be at
thr, lint.tnm bv morninc." stuttered Horn'
"Humph! I shouldn't wonder a bit,
poor Mr. Sloane."
Vh what do you you mean?"
" Why don't you do something, Mr.
Sloane? Swim to shore for another boat.
Do anything to get me off this horrid
rock."
"I I can't swim I"
"Jack can!"
" I'm glad to to hear it. I I wish
.Tapir wns here."
Carrie then seemed to bo possessed of
an idea which she suddenly put into
effect, for raising her voice to the highest
pitch, she cned Jackuacki jacKi
"Hallo!" a voice in the distance re
sponded. " Quick, Jack ; out here in the river
where tho stream flows in," cried Carrie,
as she espied Jack's form upon the shore.
And then Jack dashed into the water
and walked as quickly as possible to Car
rie, took her in his arms and walked back
to the shore.
"Help! How am I to get ashore?"
yelled Harry.
"Walk ashore! The water is about
waist-deep. You don't want me to carry
you, do you?" exclaimed Jack, as he
walked off toward the house. Carrie, very
limp and dripping, walking by his side.
Harry walked to shore. If he had only
known the depth of the water, perhaps he
would not have lost Carrie.
Anyhow, he returned to the city in the
morning ; and I can assure you he never
mentioned the little circumstance.
Carrie and Jack were married shortly
afterward. She said that the sight of
Harry in tho water had cleared away all
doubt, and she straightway knew that
she did indeed love Jack.
