And. teeing she was fair and yonoc.

He lent the angel both his ears.

Became con fused and lost his head;
And stumbled when she smiled so sweet.
From under him dipped both His feet.
He argued, but her answer grand
Left him no leg on which to stand.
Kow wss the time for her to part.
And io ! sne stole away his heart.
AfTrigbtened in the darksome hall,!

And then his terror made It known
That he, alas ! had no bscc-bone.
All that was left of Jobklns gay

And he, who might have lived for years.
Dissolved completely into lean.
MAGNIFICENT MISS STANLEY.
It vr&a a pretty scene. Tall forest
trees, "with shining foliage, green hedges
and lawn, and a large pond covered with
rastio bridges and fantastic ornaments.
A young girl sat in a half reclining po
sition npon the grass, watching the gold
riah as they appeared from time to time
npon the surface of the water. She was
not pretty, but there was something very
piquant and pleasing in the expression
of her face, which was unusually serious
for one so young. The day was warm
and sultry, and - 6he was sinking into a
quiet slumber, when a little deg sprung
toward her, barking shrilly.
"Why, you horrid little thing!" she
exclaimed. "I wonder if your master is
as homely as yoti are."
"You can judge for yourself, miss,"
said a voice close beside her; an J, spring
ing to her feet, she was confronted by a
tall, good natured looking young man,
who, although not very handsome, was
by no means unusually homely, either.
"Well, what do you tnink?" he asked, as
she stood staring at him iu ntter amaze
ment. "I think that you are very bold to in
trude in this way," she said, at last, mak
ing a very palpable effort to be dignified.
"Intrude? Now that is pretty cool,
considering that I am on my own
ground."
"Are you Mr. Gresham?"
"I had no doubt of it until -this mo
ment. Are you 3Xiss Stanley?"
"Oh, my! no what an idea! Iam
only Miss Stanley's cousin. I will go
and tell her that you have returned."
"No, don't! I have seen my aunt.and
that is enough. Sit down again, if yon
please."
"But we have-not been introduced!"
"Yes, we have; we have introduced
ourselves, and that is a great deal pleas-
i t. nr
Gresham, let me present you to Miss
n
"No, no; Miss Stanley wonld say:
'Mr. Gresham, this is my little cousin;' "
and she drew herself .up in a stately
manner, and spoke very slowly and pre
cisely. He laughed and said:
'But you have not told me your name
yet?",
"Amy Gladden, at your pleasure."
"That is a ery pretty name for a young
lady."
"But I am not a young lady.
"Not a young lady?" he repeated, with
a look of surprise and disappointment
in his face. Y'ou are not married, I
"Oh, dear, no but I am only a little
girl."
"A little girl?"
"Yes. How can I be anything else
when I have three unmarried sisters
older than myself?" she asked, in an ag
grieved tone, which made him laugh
heartily.
"True enough,"-he said at last; but
how is it that your sisters are still un
married? They cannot be as pretty as
yon are."
"Pretty as I am, Mr. Gresham? I am
the fright of the family."
"Indeed! Then if you aro the fright, I
should like to see the beauties. They
must be paragons."
"Oh, Miriam is lovely! She has the
brightest golden hair!"
"I prefer brown," he eaid, glancing
at the head before him, crowned with
bands of shining chestnut-colored hair.
"And the loveliest blue eyes!"
"I prefer brown," he said again, look
ing straight into the soft, liquid eyes of
his companion.
"And she is so tall and elegant!"
"I likfr little women best."
"Pshaw!" she cried, impatiently, "you
are just trying to flatter me. You know
that I am as homely as "
"My dog?" and then he laughed
again.
- "How y iu do laugh. What makes you
laugh so much?"
"Because I am young, I suppose. And
I wish you would laugh also," he said,
growing serious all at onoe. "It pains
me to see yoxi look so grave."
"If you were a poor minister's daugh
ter, with five sisters, I think you would
Innlr prava ton. "Rnt T ilet lunch' ftnm A
times, just when I ought not to. If
there is anything absurd, that should be
passed or unnoticed, I am sure to see it
and laugh."
"You havea keen sense of the ridicu
lous." 'I suppose so, and ic is really dread
ful. I think it is a great misfortune."
"If you were a writer.yon would prob
ably find it a great advantage."
"But I am not a writer, thank for
tune." "Why thank fortune?"
"Because my sister Julia writes, and
ohe is always tormenting me to listen to
her articles 'outpourings of genius,
she calls them and I wish her genius
would cease outpouring."
"Don't you like to read?"
"Oh, yes, indeed! but I don't like to
listen when other people read; I get so
impatient."
"I am sorry."
"Why?"
. "Because I imagined myself spending
many a pleasant hour by your side, read
ing aloud to you, while you embroitU
ered, knit or sketched."
"But I never embroider, knit or
sketch."
"You do not?'
"No; my uister Emma embroiders and
Mary sketches. Tbere is not a cow in
our neighborhood that has not posed for
her. And Emma made six big, histori
cal pictures in worsted. Oh, it is fearful
to think of."
' ' Hasn't she lost flesh?"
"Oh, no she gains it and that is her
e63 In life. But you can te&d ia Mia
Stanley." r
"Hang Miss Stanley."
"That is not polite. Have you ever
seen her?"
"No, and I do not want to. I asked
aunt not to have any young ladies here.
Oh! I beg pardon. But then you are a
little girl."
"Yes, I am just seventeen."
"Well, I think we can manage to have
some gav times together in spite of Miss
Stanley."
"You will not look at me after you
have seen her."
"Why? Is she gorgeous?"
"Awfully, fearfully! She is nearly
six feet tall; and when she wears her
crimson velvet dress, you think of Cleo
patra and Lucretia Borgia."
"That is not a flattering comparison."
"Oh, I mean in pppearance merely;
because MiBS Stanley is as good as she
is handsome. She is so admirable in
every way that it makes me feel tired. I
like people to be wicked once in a while
don't you?"
"Yes, it makes more variety, of
course."
"You will admire her beyond words
to express. Everybody does. When
she comes into a room it seems as if she
fills every portion of it. I never see any
on else."
. "She never would prevent me from
seeing you."
"Yon have not been tried yet."
"I prefer violets to sunflowers."
"Oh, don't compare her to a great
sunflower. They are ugly, even if they
are aesthetic. Call her a dahlia."
"I detest daalias."
"Well, wait and tee;" and, turnipg
suddenly away, she ran like a deer over
the lawn."
Walter Gresham had just returned
from a long European tour. He was
twenty-four years old; and, his parents
being dead he was now monarch of all
he surveyed that is, in his immediate
neighborhood. An aunt had occupied
his elegant home during his absence, and
he had given her permission to livejgayly
as she pleased; only requesting her nob
to have any fashionable young ladies
there when he returned.
But Mrs. Simcox was an inveterate
match-maker; and she imagined that
Miss Emma Stanley was the one woman
to make him happy. . Certainly, if regal
magnificence could make a man happy,
Walter Gresham Bhould have been per
fectly satisfied. It seems as if that im
posing word had been especially coined
for her. She was magnificent in beauty,
toilettes and self-conceit the last par
ticularly. There was something abso
lutely sublime in Emma Stanley's ego
tism. It never deserted her. Nothing
could modify it. The rude and ill-bred
m;ght amuse themselves in the most un
blushing manner at her expense, and
6he, in her snpurb unconsciousness,
would never know it. The fear of rivals
did not and conld not distsrb her, and
the idea of little Amy Gladden ever ap
pearing in that character was too absurd
to be entertained for a momeut. When
Mrs. Simcox suggested the propriety 'of
her marrying Walter Gresham, she as
sented graciously. She was twenty five
years old, and felt that it would be as
well to establish herself now for life.
Walter was a little younger; but then
he was agreeable, cultivated and rich.
His estate was old if he were not. Of
course he would have no objections.
That was a contingency of which she
never dreamed. And when Walter was
introduced he was so "completely stun
ned," as he told Amy afterward, that
Miss Stanley was convinced that she had
made a great impression upon him.
"But jour description was not quite
correct," he said to his cousin. '"She
did not fill all space; I saw jou iu spite
of her; and really, Miss Amy, it wu3 a
great relief
"Why? the latter asKea.
"Because you made me think of calm,
pure moonlight, after the heat and glit
ter of a hot summer day."
"You certaicly think her very hand
some?" "Wonderful ! Stupendous ! Terri
ble !"
"How you do talk. Just wait a while,
and you will be as eager as all the others
are to carry her shawl, and fan, and bou
quet. I know how it will be."
"Are they all so eager?"
"Yes, of course, Didn't you know it?
They are all crazy about her. She is re
ceiving offers all the time. I think it
was twenty she bad last year."
"Oh, now, Miss Amy, isn't that a lit
tle just a little, you know "
"It is the solemn truth. She is as
rich as she is wise and handsnme, and
money you know adds such a lustre to
beauty."
"You call yourself a little girl; but
that did not sound at all like a
little girl."
"Well, hard experience has taught me
a great deal; and I do not blame people
for liking money."
"It must be very uncomfortable to be
without it."
"It is perfectly awful! I had rather
be rich than anything else in this
world !"
"Do not say that."
"It is the truth."
"Would you marry a man you did not
like, just because he could give you
money?"
"I do not know I have never been
tried."
"Yon would not do it, I know. Money
does not always bring happiness."
"It brings an immense amount of
comfort any wav. Mrs. Simcox is calling
us."
A humbler person than Miss Stanley
would hardly have been satisfied with
Walter Gvesham's manner towards her.
He was evidently impressed; but wheth
er the impression was favorable or not
was somewhat uncertain. She attrib
uted his reserve to diffidence, and rather
admired it as something desirable in a
young man. And when he sought Amy's
side -and talked with her so unreservedly
(as it appealed) she thought he did it
out of pure kindness, and appreciated
him all the more. Fortunately she did
not hear their remark in regard to her
self; and when she saw them together so
often afterward, sbe still ascribed it to
his genuine good nature, and felt no un
easiness whatever.
Mrs. Simcox, however, did not feel so
well satisfied, and concluded to speak to ;
Mias Stanley in regard to the growing
intimacy between the young people.
"Emma," she said, "Walter and Amy!
are together a great deal of the time."
"Oh, yes." she replied calmly, "it is
very kind in him to amuse the child as
he does. He must be very' fond of little
girls."
"He seems to be fond of this little
girl, at any rate. I would send her home
if I were in your place." I
"Why should I send her home? Do
you dislike the child? Does Bbe annoy
you?" Ji
"Certainly not. I like her very
much." ;
"I have always been fond of Amy.!
She is so quiet and inoffensive. She
seems very happy hera, and her own
home is so crowded. I pity the child.";
i was uei thinking of taytdlf at all,
tor I nice to have her here. Hue la a
good girl, obliging and pleasant; .but
she seems a little too attractive. Walter
is evidently much pleased with her."
! "She doubtless amuBes him. She is
truly unsophisticated, and really quite
original in her ideas.
S "And are you not afraid'
"Afraid? What Bhould I be afraid of?"
! "Well, perhaps I am unnecessarily
alarmed ; but I had quite set my heart
on seeing you the mistress hereEmma."
j "I have seen no reason as yet to
hange my mind in regard to that ar
rangemont. Walter is rather young.but
he is manly and dignihed.
i "Yes, Amy thinks so."
I "She has very good judgment, al
though her experience is, of course.lim
ited." ! And Mrs. Simcox left her in despair.
Soon after this Walter was" taken sick
with slow fever, and almost immedi
ately afterward Amy received a message
from home, desiring her speedy return.
She was obliged to go, without bidding
the sick man good bye, and she carried
away a very sad heart in oonsequence.
i Miss Stanley was a epiendi 1 nurse,
and she devoted herself unremittingly to
the patient; but he longed for a sight of
Amy's piquant face and girlish figure.
He was very much in love; and his per
fect consciousness of the fact prevented
his making any inquiries regarding her.
At length, however, he could contain
himself no longer; and one day, wheD
Miss Stanley's splendidly-developed fig
ure was turned away from hirp.he asked:
"Where is Miss Gladden? Is she
well?"
"Oh, yes; but she had to go home.
They sent for her. But I want to thank
you for all the notice you took of the
little girl. It was very kind in vou to
do it."
"You give me more credit for unself
ishness than I deserve. Miss Amy is a
delierhtful companion."
"Yes, her naivete is very amusing.
She has lived in the country all her life,
poor child, and knows very little of the
ways of the world."
"Perhaps that is what makes her so
charming."
"She has a great deal to learn, and I
hope to have her with me again before
long. She cannot have any proper ad
vantages where she is, and her mind and
manners both need cultivation."
He said no more then ; but he grew
very impatient to be up and about again,
and as soon as he was able to leave the
house he announced his intention of go
ing away for a few days, though whither
they could not find out.
Amy Gladden was seated one morning
in a little rustic arbor near her father's
house, looking even more serious than
usual, when she heard a familiar
voice pronounce her name in eager,
questioning tones. Raiding her head
quickly, she saw Walter Gresham stand
ing before her, looking very pale and
thin, but with a glad, happy light in his
eyes.
"Oh, Walter!" she exclaimed, invol
untarily, springing from her seat.
"Are you glad to see me. Amy?" he
asked, watching, with a happy smile,
the bright blushes come and' go in her
cheek.
"Yes," she said; "but you look so
tired and pale. Sit down at once;" and
she made him take a seat. "Are you
quite well?"
"Oh, yes! And you are you happy?"
"I am just now," she answered,
frankly blushing again as she saw the
beaming look come into his face.
"You blessed little darling!" he cried,
throwing his ams around her waist.
"Oh, but. you musn't do that," she
said; although she certainly looked more
pleased than angry.
"Yes, I shall for I love you my
darling, and I am going to" and here
Amy's face was completely covered fcr
several seconds. "Ob, Amy," he said,
suddenly, "you do not think money is
the most desirable thing in the world
now, do you? Is not love a great deal
better?"
"Do you want me to tell yon that T am
sorry you are rich, Walter? I can net do
that. I love you dearly, dearly, with
my whole heart; but I am just as glad
as I can be that you are not a poor man."
"What a frank little thing you are.
Amy. And of course you are right; I
know I should not be contented without
money; and it makes me very happy to
think that I can surround you with lux
uries." "I have always longed for nice things,
but I never dreamed that I should have
them. Oh, Walter, I am so glad that it
is you who will give them to me."
"I would like to see any other man
dare to do it."
"How strange that you should prefer
me to Miss Stanley."
"St ange? It seems the moat natural
thing in the world to me. Amy. I told
you I liked little women the best."
"There is a good deal of Emma."
"She makes me think of the Sphinx."
"Now, Walter, dear, you must not
laugh at her, because she is good and
kind to me."
"I know it, Amy; and she has been
very devoted to me too. Bat your fath
er, my darling, he will not object to this
arrangement, will he?"
"He will be greatly relieved to have
one daughter disposed of."
Here Walter burst into a hearty laugh,
in which she soon joined, although she
could not see anything funny in what
she bail said.
Her father at once gave his consent,
and they were soon very happy.
He remained a week, and upon his re
turn, going straight to his aunt, with a
face fairly radiant with happiness, he
said:
"Congratulate me, aunt!"
"Congratulate you? what for? Has
Em "
"Amy has promised to be my wife."
"What is that? Amy? Are you crazy?"
"Crazy? No, I am as sane as you are."
"Did you say that you intended to
marry that child?"
"That child will be eighteen in De
cember, and we shall be married ou her
birthday."
"But Em, Miss Stanley?" Mrs. Sim
cox inquired in a dazed, bewildered way,
"what will she say?"
Then Walter looked somewhat bewil
dered also that is for a few mcnieut3.
But he began to laugh immediately after
ward, and said:
"I do not know what Miss Stanley has
to do with it. She is not my mother, or
guardian, or maiden aunt, or "
"But I think she expected "
"Expected what?"
"She has been so attentive."
"Well, I certainly am very much
obliged to her for her attentions!"
"Think how she nursed you."
"Yes. she was awfully kind."
1 think some explanation
"Aunt Ellen, what do you mean?"
"It is Buch a delicate matter."
"Hang the delicacy! Do you mean
that she expected I would want to marry
her?"
"Well, yes, 1 think indeed I am quite
sure that she did."
"I am very sorry, then, that I cannot
ebUgo her, fcu t vll mo wi tuc lzA till
her of my engagement."
v "No, indeed, it will be better for me
to do it," and she started at once to f nl
fill the dreadful duty. -
She found Miss Stanley looking very
imposing and elegant in a scarlet satin
wrapper. After talking a while upon in
different subjects, Mrs. Simcox said: .
"Do you know what Walter went away
for?"
"He went upon some business, I sup
pose." "He went to see Amy."
"Did he? Just like his kind hrt."
"It was not kindness at all; it was
love."
"I do not understand you."
"He is engaged to Amy, and they are
to be married in December."
For the first time in her life, perhaps,
Miss - Stanley looked surprised. More
than that, she looked astounded. But
soon recovering her usual admirable
composure, she said:
"I hope ho will be happy with the
child. She is very young and inexper
ienced; but Bhe is a good little girl. It is
an excellent thing for the family, as they
are very needy."
"Well, I must say that I feel greatly
disappointed."
"You need not be. Amy is very quick
to learn, and, with only a few hints, she
will fulfill her duties here very grace
fully;'' and Miss Stanley resumed her
embroidery; with a gracious smile, as if
everything had transpired according to
her fondest wishes.
As Mrs. Simcox went back to her room
she thought to herself :
"It is juet as well. So superior a per
son would not be likely to suit Walter."
Miss Stanley's manner toward that
young gentleman was the very perfection
of stately grace and urbanity; and when
the marriage took place, Amy received
no handsomer present than the costly
diamonds bestowed by her benignantly
smiling cousin.
After they had been married a year or
two, Walter came into his wife's room
on day, and said:
"Amy, I have some news for you.
"Ob, tell me, quick!" ' she exclaimed;
"what is it?"
"Miss Stanley is engaged to an Eng
lish nobleman."
"Oh, that is splendid! What a sensa
tion she will make."
"I hear that he ia a very fine man."
"He ought to be. I hope that he is
handsome, and good, and intelligent
for certainly no common man should
ever marry our magnificent Miss Stan
ley." Conjugal Companionship.
Another discouragement that Dr. Dix
might have prescribed for divorce is per
sistent, unselfiah intention, on the part
of married couples, to be companiona
ble. Companionship is the basis of all
lasting unions of male and female, even
among the animals. It is quite true that
most married couples were originally
mismated, but no fact is better known or
recognized, outside of family circles,
than that extreme differences of intellect,
taste, acquirement, disposition and na
ture aro no bar to the delightful and en
during friendship, unless in one person
or the other there are positive vices or
selfishness that prevent the formation of
any true and honorable bond with any
being whatever. Even heathen philoso
phers have urged man and woman to
perpetuate and perfect their union by
mutual and persistent devotion toward
each other. But Dr. Dix has indirectly
discouraged this in nearly all of his lec
tures. His injunction that wives shall
be obedient to their husbands, his repro
bation, or at least suspicion, of modern
women's desire to be well informed on
subjects of whioh their hasbands talk;
his criticism of women who are not con
tent to be housekeepers and nurses and
nothing more, are all calculated to make
women the inferiors of their husbands.
and, consequently to a great degree un
companionable. The lecturer might
justly have given his male parishioners,
respectable ana otherwise, some nam
raps, for the custom of many of them ia
to devote the better part of the day to
husmess, most of the remainder to their
male acquaintances, and only their
stupid hours to their families.
And. if marriage is the holy institu
tion that preachers proclaim it to be, why
did not Dr. Dix blame the clergy of all
the churches for not making its duties
and blessings the subject of frequent ser
mons and instructions? Sermons on re
generation, adoption, canctihcation, to
tal depravity, redemption, backsliding,
malice, envy and uncharitableness
abound, but what .veteran church-goer
has heard during all his life a dozen ser
mons on marriage?
Commodore Phelps' Removal.
Probably nothing has happened here
for years that people have discussed
more fully, without reaching satisfactory
conclusions, than the removal of Com
modore Phelps from the command of the
Navy Yard and his orders to the South
Atlantic station, in the nrst place, com
modore Phelps was not in command of
the yard the usual time by some ten
months; in the second place be desired
to remain here, moved heaven and
earth" after his fashion to that end; and
yet all his influence, and he was accred-
ited with not a littie.ana ponderous peti
tions bearing five hundred uames.availed
him not. The presumption that the
Navy Department had no other available
officer to order in command of the South
Atlantic squadron, seems to have been
effectually exploded, and "there certainly
was some other motive that lies at the
bottom of the commodore's strange re
moval. It is said that young, designing
and powerful fellow-officers put the
screws to the commodore in the hope that
he would ask to be retired and thus
cause their advoncement in grade. It is
talked at tea parties that Miss Dora Mil
ler, daughter of one of the United States
Senators from California, was piqued at
treatment she received at the hands of
the commodore's family while visiting at
the Navy Yaid last fall, and that her
father has resented it. It is the talk
furthermore that politics effected the re
moval and tho accompanying unpleasant
order. It is paid, in the same connec
tion, that the commodore permitted him
to be too much of a tool in tho hands of
politicians, and has thus brought upon
himself the visitation 'of that wrath that
men more powerful and hard to reach
than he, have tailed to escape. Vallejo

The following verses will appear in
the forthcoming biography of William
Cullen Bryant, written by bis son-in-law
Mr. Park Godwin, and published by D

1814, when Mr. Bryant was rn his twen

were found among the poet's papers, an
have never before been published. There
