THE PRINCE OF PEACE. Death sent his messengers before; "Our master come apace," they cried. wEre night he will be at thy door To claim thy darling from thy aide." I drove them forth with curses fell; I drove them forth with jeer and scog; Not all the powers of heaven or hell Combined should bear my darling oft. I armed me madly for the fight; My gates I bolted, barred and locked; 'At sunset came a sable knight, Dismounted at my doors, and knocked. I, answered not; he knocked again; I braved him sole, I braved bis band; He knocked once more: in vain, in vain; My barrier crumbled 'neatb bis hand. I rushed into the breech; I stood Dazed with the flood of ebbing light; "A victory over senseless wood Adds scanty glory to thy might I A stronger champion guards these walls A human love, a living heart; And while each earthly bulwark falls, It stays thee, awful as thou art 1" My sabre shivered on his mail, My lance dropped heedless at his feet; I saw my darling's cheek grow pale, I saw her turn my foe to meet. He passed my lips alone could move; Mad words of passion forth I hurled; "They lied who said that God was love, Who lets a tyrant rule the world." lie gathered her to his embrace While yet 1 raved in my despair; He raised his vizor from his face, I looked and saw an angel there. Such conquering love, such mercy rare, Such heavenly pity in bis eyes As surely lovely divine might wear Wben he assumed our mortal guise. He bent above her dear dead lips Aline own, whom I loved too well And struggling from life's last eclipse, They smiled in peace ineffable. Awestruck I watched, he raised his head, And then, in tones like summer's breath, "Am I a thing so vile, he said. "I, whom ye men call shuddering Death?'' And sword and targe aside I flung, Forgotten wrath, and loss and pride; To his departing feet I clung, "And me too, take me too, I cried; "Without her all is blank and black, With her and ihee so fair me too," i The solemn voice came ringing back, j "Kot yet, for there is work to do." ! The sunset sank from rose to gray, ! Ilia accents died away with it, j And from my soul, as from day to day, The glow and glory seem to flit; t And 'cid my stronghold's shattered strength I knelt alone, yet not alone; j Death's angel lett me hope at length ) Through tasks fulfilled to reach mine own. All the Year Bound j ' IT'S AN ILL WIND." I On a blowy, rather raw day early in March, in the year.187 ; a young matt of a well-bred bearing and stylish pres ence strides with quick steps along the narrow Bea-wall that protects the inhabi tants of St. Anststine from the overflow of the ocean through Mantanzas river. The breeze from the sea is so very stiff and brisk that it requires some .balanc ing and acrobatic feats and contortions for him to retain his foothold upon the wall. Mr. Sedley Dutton Lathrop as his visiting cards label him is piqued and annoyed, and he takes a malicious pleasure in butting against the wind. and conquering ita uely gusts. After a valiant struggle, he reaches the fort in safety. The walk has sent a rich tinge of crimson to his cheeks, and having changed the circulation, has somewhat cooled his ire. - After rambling about the fort, and lis tening with an incredulous smile, to the blood-curdling tales oi the cicerone, in regard to the skeletons, instruments of torture, and rusty iron cages found in a certain dungeon, Mr. Lathrop comfort ably settles himself on the rampart in a retired nook, and sheltered from the CRlfl. Ho : has a fine view of the rivr and the distant white-crested breakers He is really uncommonly comfortable, and the surroundings are so bright and smiling and conducive to pleasant thoughts, that after a slight introspec tion he somes to the conclusion that he is the one at fault, - that he has been un reasonable and disagreeable, and thioks that if the men at home could know how he has acted in a certain affair, they would vote him a cad. The fact is, Mr, Sedley Dutton Lathrop is somewhat in love, and men when laboring under such an influence are apt to be exacting and Buspioious. j Mr. Lathrop, about a fortnight ago, traveled all the way from Philadelphia to St. Augustine for the express purpose or being near a very charming young woman with whom he is enamored; but lately the powers that be have been most provokingly agamet him. Miss JiiStey, upon his advent at St. Augustine, was most gushingly delighted to see him, and for five or six days he lived in elys ium. but then a - chancre came, and it dawned upon Sedley Lathrop's mental vision that Ethel Estey was a sad co ouette. To be sure, there was some excuse for it, as she was an uncommonly pretty and- attractive young wo man and wore her crowns and hats with such a bewitching grace that a dozen or so men at the hotel were as en thralled as Sedley Lathrop. "When Mr. Lathrop arrived, and Miss Lstey ap peared so to approve his admiration and devotion to the exclusion of all others, there was gnashing of teeth, and bitter anathemas pronounced upon his devoted head by the young men in question. But now she seems to tire of the atten tion of only one man, so she throws out her lines again, and the twelve young men are soon wriggling on the hooks; then comes Mr. La;hrop's turn to gnash his teeth, but what is one against , so many? He sulks and he mopes, and complains, but all to no purpose; she still continues dancing three times ) in succession every evening with that mis erable snob, Tom Wilton. On all sailing and driving parties she takes particular pains to snub him most unmercifully, and his life, to Sedley Lathrop, grows to be a burden and a misery; he loses faith in human nature generally, and the milk of human kindness within him is rapidly evaporating. On this particular windy March day he has told Miss Estey, at the conclusion of another gentle remonstrance, that he sees now clearly that they are not . suited to each' other, and he intends returning to Philadelphia the following day. She looks a little startled when she hears his last words, and her under lip and eyelids quiver, but she replies that she' has long been, of bis opinion, too, that he has done nothing but scold and annoy her, that he is horribly suspicious and jeal ous, and it is probably just as well that it should end now. So, as a preliminary to the long journey home, he takes the "walk on the sea-wall. j As Sedley Lathrop sits on the rampart, idly digging little stones out of the wall, and tossing them into the yawning mouth of a cannon near him, he suddenly hears a low laugh, and coming round the pro jection behind which he lounges at full 'ength is Ethel Estey with Mr. Wilton. Mr: Lathrop is on his feet in an instant, and uncovering his head, returns Miss Estey's haughty recognition with a low, grave bow. They pass without comment, and Sedley, picking up his stick, starts toward his hotel with, if possible, even more bitter feelings in his heart than when he left it; all his good reso lutions to apologize for his quick temper, and in the future to over look Ethel's caprices, being com pletely knocked in the head by the late encounter. As he again steps upon the sea-wall, he fully realizes the force of the wind; it is now pounding against his back, and it rushes him along. He has not as much time to be angry as he would like to have, for it requires all his mental and physical powers to watch his steps and keep his hat on his head. He is seriously thinking of taking it to the safer width of the road, anc leaving the narrrow ledge of the wall; the thought oauses him to look at the former, and he falls about ten feet; fortunately the tide is rapidly falling, and the muddy water is only about two feet in depth. Sedley Lathrop is on his knees, with his hands buried to his wrists in the mud. There is a sharp pain a cross between a red hot knife slowly cutting and an electric shock somewhere in his right side, but he is too dazed and bewildered to locate it. Drawing his hands out of the ooze. he attempts to stand, but his right foot will not support him, and he sinks with a sharp exclamation and a very white face. His hat and stick floating off to gether in pleasant companionship. What is he to do? In front of him rises ten feet of green, slimy barnacle', covered wall; behind him lies the river, spark ling in the sunlight; there is not a boat in sight, and he is sitting in the water, chilled through and through, and unable to move . "Will npbody come?" he thinks with despair. He knows the exact location of the tremendous pain now; it is in his ankle, and is growing so intense that he feels ill and dizzy. "What if I nhould faint?" he says, looking at the water about him, and measuring the depth with his hand. "It is deep enough to Buffocate me. At this juncture there are steps on the wall, stepping toward him, and he hears a sweet, musical voice, the accents oi which sends a rush of crimson to his face. Hej is mortified to think that she will see hirja in this humiliating predica ment. He decides not to call; he will wait for some one else to help him; but it is growing toward dusk, and he can not endure the pain much longer Involuntarily he groans. The footsteps cop I heard a groan, Mr. Wilton; what can it mean? It seemed to be right here." ! Then there is a horrified cry as Miss Estey discovers. Mr. Lathrop sitting close to the wall, submerged in the water, all splashed with mud, looking frightfully demoralized, and with an agonized expression in his eyes as he meets hers. "Why, Mr. Lathrop Sedley what has happened? Oh, are you hurt.'' get ting down bpon her knees and leaning over the wall to look at him. tie smiles rather faintly at . her, and without a word falls over, and the water quite covers his head. Without an instant's hesitation Mr Wilton lowers himself over the wall and then drops into the water. Besting on one knee, regardless of the wetting, he holds Lathrop's head, and brushes the water from his face with his handker chief. Poor Miss Estey is quite beside herself with horror and terror, and calls put, , "Oh, Mr. .Wilton, what shall I do? What shall I do?" just stop the hrst person yon see please, and ask for a boat. I will stay here. In about half au hour a boat is rowed as near to the wall as possible, and two men wading to Sedley Lathrop carry hhim to the boat. There is quite an ex cited crowd of spectators on the wall and a great many conjectures and opin ions as to how it happened are volun teered. Toward the end of the month Of April St. Augustine begins to look deserted The great rush of the Northern travel is over, and the few remaining tourists are generally people who, for various rea sons, cannot get away. On the road that leads to the fort, on a deliciously perfect day of that month, stroll two of the above mentioned tourists a young woman ana man; the latter leans rather heavily upon a stout walking-stick and has an almost decided limp. They reach the fort; and seat themselves. "Well, this is the first time I have been here since that day," from the young man, looking archly at his com panion. "Oh, please do not speak of that Sedley; the memory of my horror when I saw you in the water is too unutter ably terrible; ' and Ethel Estey shad dered at the recollection. "Well, I do not know that it'' was such a bad thing after all, Ethel," taking her hand and looking deep into her eyes "I am truly grateful to that wind; it blew me from the wall, but it also blew me back to you!" Waverly Magazine, Courtesy to Young Lad ea. Marion Harland, writing in the Con cregationalist, says: "Familiarity o speech leads as naturally to freedom of touch as books to rivers, or neglect of small sweet courtesies to overt boorish- ness. I do not exaggerate in asserting that the feminine portion of Young America that affects picnics, singing schools, straw rides, church . sociables and surprise parties needs as much to be ticketed 'Hands off!' as the valuables in an art exhibition. When the finger of a man who is not my husband or kinsman is pressed upon my shoulder to point a story or attract attention ; when a for ward youth fillips my arm with his folded glove at an evening party with, 'I say!' I may be and am of fended, but in a quiet, matronly way. When I see a thoughtless school girl sit hand in hand on a steamboat or car with a man whom I know to be a mere ac quaintance, or the opera cloak presse l long and closely about the pretty young thing, whom her escort wraps up offi ciously before leading her to her car riage; when girls are hauled and pushed and buffeted in romping games, and in dances that are nothing better, as the herd might jostle one another, my blood heats with more indignant fire. No true man will needlessly, much less wantonly, put a woman on the defensive. The best that can be said of him who claps the lady guest on the back as he might her husband, or the coxcomb who, without her permission, dares to omit the 'Miss in accosting his girl friend, is that he 'knows no better.' If they guessed how often the plea is urged in extenuation of their bovine gambols by charitable friends with juster ideas of the decencies and amenities of society, the shock to self-conceit might be a wholesome les son." . The simple precept, Seek the truth, re spect the truth, speak the truth, and be lieve the truth, is one without which no character can be perfect; and it is one which will make a character for a man, though' he never read a line of theology, never listened to a single sermon, never entered the portals of a church. Carried 8'x Bullets. It is rare luck for a person who is very nearly the victim of a practical joke to 1 Al A 1 , , , . . uavtt auuiuer ut&e ms piace just m tne nick of time. . "As I sat on the hotel steps at Dalton. Ga" says Mr. Burdette, of the Hawkeye, 'talking with a drummer from Cincin nati, the landlord came out and asked us if we wanted to see a man who was car rying six bullets about him. Of course we wanted to see him, and were walked down to the other end of the verandah and introduced to Col. Beach. I was going to approaoh him slowly and gracefully, but the drummer rushed forward, after the enterprising manner of his tribefand said: " 'So you are carrying six bullets with you, eh? "'Yea, sir.' " 'Do they pain you much?' "'Reallv! but I don't see how you lived through it. were you in?' - How many battles all these bullets at " 'Did you get once? " 'Yes' all at once.' " 'That's remarkable! Well. I never heard the likes of it! Colonel. I don t want to be impudent, but' "'You want to know where they are located?' "Exaotly-exactly.' T carrying 'em in this pocket to day.' was the quiet reply as he fished down and brought up six old bullets picked up off the battle-field. "It was a put-up job on me, but the drummer got in ahead, and he was so angry about it that he wouldn't eat any supper." , : y - . When to Stop Advertising.

Grudnnte of the XwYork School of Medl cine, alao of the Dublin l"rctlce. A word to the public-Consultation free. I invite the sick, no matter what their diseases may be, to call and invest'itate for themselves before aban doning all hopes, for it will cost yon nothing. I give no encouragement unless there Is a fulr prospect of milking a cure. I will endeavor to be candid In my opinion and reasonable in my charges. I claim not to cure everybody, but to fure all that can be cured. I have had twenty years' successful practice hi the treatment of loth acute and chronic diseases. I have located in Portland, and all I ask is that yon give me a fair, unbiased trial, by which I hone to merit yonr con fidence, and give entire satisfaction to all suffering humanity. My reputation has been acquired by being candid with my patients, through years of successful practice, both in Europe and in this country, and studiously keeping up with the age. I know the cause and remedy needed, not by guesswork, but by years of experience. . In my treatment of many diseases I make use of a new method of cure. The treatment is simple and the most feasible of all. There Is no unpleasant sensation w hatever attending the treatment. I invite all persons afflicted to visit-ond freely convince themselves, leav tmr me to verify the a-scrtion that there has never existed a remedy so startling and immediate in Its effects. Ihese noted curative a'ds, as handled in my practice, are endor-ed and approved by the faculties of both Europe and America. The beneficial effects are perceptible almost from the start. Cases regarded Incurable, and of years standing, yield to its mild but wonderful influence. And in no case can the treat ment be attended with the least danger, thereby tes tify ing It to be the most harmless agent In therapeu tics. Th'e who wish to apply for advice oi treatment mav confidently do so without hesitation or diffidence, as the most timid may rely on that inviolable secrecy which has already proved the basis of au extensive professional reputation nbroad. - Cases can be treated by conespendence when a per sonal Interview is impossible, providing the patients will minutely detail all of their bodily infirmatles and mental disturbances written In a simple and natural style, and In accordance with the necessary de'ails of their own feelings. Oue personal interview, however, even witu4atlents residing at a distance is highly de sirable when practicable, and will more than repay the patient the expense and trouble of a trip to Port land. The advantage of even a visit are apparent and manifold. A single visit hi most cases will enable the doctor to form an accurute opinion and note particulars whieh might be lost sight of in mere correspondence, particularly when a microscopic and chemical analy sis Is absolutely necessary. Patients not resid ing in the city who wish to transact their business through the mails or by express can have the neces sary remedies sent to any address or left at any rail way station or coach office in Oregon or Washington Territory until called Tor. carefully packed and se curely sealed.
