A BLACK BRIGADE.
BERRYING.
The Wrries stained her dimpled face,
And dyed her white dress here and there,
Aa standing with a latghing graer
She twined the k n dfils in her hair.
The bramidos ronnd her fondly clung—
I envied branch and thorn that day—
The very woodland when she Rung
Seemed hnsht d¿and listening to her lay.
The pines that lined the shadowy lane.
And grew far down the rugged brake,
Had changed their weird and sad refrain
To one glad peau for her sake.
The .purpled lips, so full and sweet,
Tho dainty hand, so round and fair;
I could have fallen at her feet,
In worship of her smiling there.
Another June, and in the wood
Among the berries in the Inner
I stand, where once my idol stood,
Bnt where she ne’er shall stand again.
Comes from the pines a dreary dirge,
Comes from the sea a solemn moan.
And, oh! your wailing—wood and surge—
Is but an echo of mine own.
The Beggar Boy of Lucerne.
More- than half a century ago, lie-
fore the walls were built about the
old city of,Lucerne, certain Aus­
trian noblemen formed a great con­
spiracy to conquer the town and land
for Hapslnirg. Now, tho emerald-
green waters of the Reuss ilowed
swiftly past the town. They have
had a long journey from their home
among the awful glaciers that bolt
_ and bar the glories of the Alp-land.
They have bounded over barren
rocks, sprinkled the moss and heath­
er above the realm of beast and bird,
leaped fearless down the black Devil's
Gorge, dashed over and around the
boulders with which the giants used
to play, and so ever on and ever
down have held their course, till the
W onder-lake, the lake of the Four
Cantons, has received the panting-
fugitives. She has washed them
clean of the earth-tint with which
they were born. Her depths, the
color of daintiest robin’s egg, quietly
hide the wandere’s imperfections and
send them on their way, clad in
their purity, loudly singing their un­
translated song. Down by the bed
of the Reuss there stood an old ara-
cade, dim and obscure, fit place for
murderous council Here the scar­
let-sleeved conspirators met in the
darkness of tlio night. After much
consultation, it was finally deter­
mined that with the swords and dag­
gers with which they were armed the
Mayor and Councilors of the city
should be slain. Before day shall
break the doomed town shall be in
their power.
Silently starting on their deadly
mission one of the noblemen dicov­
ers a poor boy lying upon a bench in
tho darkness o f a corner. He is
only a beggar boy, and he has no
home, no friends. So the hand of
the heavenly watcher, whose glances
piercs the veil of night, had led him
here to guard the town. He had
listened to the treacherous plot and
determined to reveal it as soon as he
could escape undiscovered. But
suddenly he is seized by the desper­
ate men. They declare that they
will instantly kill him. The sword
is raised, but the boy, wild with ter­
ror entreats their mercy, and prom­
ises, he will never reveal to any one
what he has heard. Believing the
promise, with many threats they let
him go.
Out into the darkness the boy
dashes. He sees far off the light of
a village butcher,and hastens toward
it. There is careless feasting and
merriment here, and a group of men
arc telling stories of daring in the
olden time. The boy, with breath­
less haste, rushes into the ro o m ,
rhe tears arc rolling down his cheeks.
He looks not into the face of any one,
but hurries to the great stone stove
and ciñes:
“ O stove! what I have promised
never to tell to any man I must tell
to thee í O dear good stove! I was
compelled to swear; bnt listen well,
while I show to vou the danger of
the beloved city. The murderers
are hastening even now to slav the
rulers, and to conquer Lucerne once
more. They—
But only the stove is there to hear
the storv of the bright, slv bov.
The strongmen have quickly taken
the alarm; very 6oon tho conspira­
tors are seized atul hastened to jus­
tice. The foes of the good town are
driven out with a strong hand, and
Lucerne is free.
They sought for the child whose
loyal cunning had saved them, but
they never found him. Even to this
day Hie Switzers tell the story with
admiring gratitude in their tones,
but no man knows his name. The
senseless stovo that heard the warn­
ing is still preserved in the old hall
where the butchers’ guild was wont
to meet.

and artifice of the nameless b e""ar

char ­
bronzed faces,
upturned in the
shining sun to heaven, as if in mute
appeal against the wrongs of that
country for which they had given
their lives, and whose flag had only
been to them a flag of stripes on
which no staTB of glory had ever
shone
for them— feeling I
had
wronged them in the past, and be-
leiving what was the future of my
country to them— among my dead
comrades there I swore to myself a
solemn oath. “ May my right hand
forget its cunning and my tongue
cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I
ever fail to defend the rights of these
men who have given their blood for
me and my 'country this day, and
for their race forever;” and, God
helping me, I will keep that oath.
(Great applause on tho floor and in
the galleries.)
A SHORT SERMON TO CONGRESS.
The question the people ftie seri­
ously pondering now is whether the
Government is conducted primarily
in their interest, or in the interest of
those to whom they have entrusted
temporarily the management of their
affaire. Of one tliere is a pretty gen­
eral conviction, that the present man­
agement is necessarily costly. They
demand a reduction, and they will
have it. They depend upon Congress
to stop the waste. W e speak what
we believe to be true when we say
that, unless the waste is stopped,
there will be sweeping changes, next
fall, in the constitution of Congress.
There is no reason to regret this
condition of public sentiment. It is
right, and full of promise. The peo­
ple want to know why it is that, in
spite of annual appropriation of
twenty millions or more for a navy,
there is so little show for it.
They
believe that the force of pensioners
on the Treasury, nominally employed
from‘ ofle to six hours a day at the
departments, is out of reasonable
ratio to the requirements of the pub­
lic business. If the Republican par­
ty goes to tho country, next fall,
having expanded the currency to the
war limit, it will find it has forfeited
the confidence of an influential body
of citizens, without whose support
no party can long prosper. The real
work of retrenchment and reform has
not yet begun. The repeal of the
salary bill is only the retracing of a
recent step in the direction of extrav­
agance. There ore old abuses to
be corrected, and some not so very
old, that have grown up without the
sanction of explicit legislation. The
demand is that new and old together
shall be put to the knife.— Bunion
