THE MANSION-
fsr arsis.
It would have been called a pictur
esque little house if its commonness had
not forbidden so distinguished an epi
thet There was no beauty in its de
sign or in the work of the builder.
Nature had not yet wrought upon it
any of those fanciful adornments of
moss or lichens which in their decay
change dull and common things into
things that are picturesque and beauti
ful; but new and poor aud dull with
summer's dust and the tear traces of
thi late winter, it was; and this was
"The Mansion." In the endeavor to
find a level upon tli uneven ground
for the foundation of this house, it had
been necessary t- thrust down a long
post to rupport one corner, while other
shorter and lesser posts seemed awk
warkiy striding toward the mound on
which the upper corner rested appa
rently more at eae. The sugniion

cheerfulness in reserve, but a consistent
disregard of both those conditions per
fectly suited to the exterior promise of
this verv plain and very queer little
house. i
The playiul irony which had given
i to it the name by which we knew it,
"xha Mansion would have been un
kind if it had been directed against
that poverty of idea as well as of puise
which so often marks the humble
dwellings of the poor; but all indiffer
ent to cottage beauty or ironical epi
thets, the toad like house squatted on
the hillside and winked its little window-eyes
towards the east; and saw
there, stretched out before it, a land
scape grand and beautiful as was ever
seen in poetic vision. Snow-clad
mountainh, pnrpla foot-hills, green fori
eats and smiling farm lm Is, a beauti
ful river where whit sails flitted ever
the blue water us did the sea gulls in
the air above, tely trees upon the
tanks wh'-re birds flitted and sang

story would not have been written.
It was only when Providence had
placed in this rough setting a jewel
which glowed there in its pale beauty
for a time and then departed f 01 ever
that we knew how well it had benn
named.
It was when spring had advanced a
1 a little, droppmir a towinten polity w
the bare brown branches and softening
the harsh voices of the wind to gen
tier measures, that we saw movements
about the little house which gave a
hint that it was about to be occupied.
There were some slight demonstrations
I of wrestling with the accumulated dust
of months, and a few simple articles of I
household furniture put in their places;
and toward evening when the western
sky was lit up by the glory of the set
ting sun, a carriage stopped before the
Humble gate and an invalid woman
carefully wrapped up, was bome in
arms up the uneven pathway to the
doubtful hospitalities of "The Man
sion." i
I For several days we saw but little
For several days we saw but little 1
of our new neighbors; a man whom we
of our new neighbors; a man whom we I
rightly guessed te be husband, nurse
1 and heusekewper went in and out of the!
place with a brisk and cheerful man-
I ner. which indicated that he had at
command evert thing essential to com-
fort At length some simple errand of
inauirv about the resources or the
I neighborhood brought him to our door,
and his errand done he said with a cheer-
ful and eood humored air. that his wife
I had been sick but was now out of the
doctor's hands and would be pleased to
have a cell from us. "While the rain
I was falling through the alternate shade
1 nd sunshine of an April day, we paid
our first visit to the 'lady of the man-
sion." Through the comfortless little
front room and sn inner bed room! to
the narrow little kitchen we were ush-
1 ered by the husband who presented us
to his wife "Mrs. Grey." Upon a Sset-
tee contrived of chairs and blankets
where the comfort of the kitchen stove
1 might be had the invalid received ! ns
I She was neither vonnff nor beautiful
nor cultured as the world counts thrso I Paler than we had seen htm but cheer
things, and yet without the aid of per-1 ful he held in his hand a puzzling
1 sonal adornments or attractive sur
I ronndings, there was in her face a rare
I beauty a beauty net of an earthly
I sort but such as comes from a bure
- 1 and high spirit filled with love j and
sanctified by suffering "I am happy
to see my neighbors" said she, as she
gave her thin little hand in welcome.
"this is so beautiful aplace that! have
eome here to grow strong. 1 think all
who live her murt be good and pleas
ant to know." Wo had not expected
such a greeting but without heeding
our hinted demurrer, she went on sav

ing. "1 have been ilL but now I am

my husband' nursing, and when the
spring flowers come, I expect to bloom

child she prattled on, hopeful acd happy

ioe contrast between nusband and
wi was vary maraea; ne, neaitny,
strong and vigorous; she, wasted
disease anl helpless as an infant;
watchful
ntici listing every . want;
-
she receiving with gentlest accepUuce
every kind office. Husband and wife
were all in all to each other in simplic-
lty oi taitn and purity and entiret0f
anection; and so from th perfection
their blended Uvea there riione forth
radiance which changed the poor little
house into a temple of happiness and
love. Day by day we watched this
interesting pair wcing clnarly enough
that disease had laid his relentless hand
upon the little wife, and that death
alone could release ber; but they saw
it not; their hopeful eyes were stead
fastly turned away from the cloud of
gathering sorrow which already filled
so much of their life's sky; and the
twain wandered on in their love-lighted
pathway trusting in good, uncomplain

Poor Jack was growing troubled, not
that he saw the danger, for he did not
ana it: but he was concerned lest
"Mandy micht be sick again." Per-
hapa it was in doubt of his own abili
tiaa in such an event that a servant
maid was brought into the house, and
kind iieople even called in; perhaps it
was from a desire that due homage
should bo naid to his wife, whom he
could not have served with protonnder

hastened to the f ick room. The dying
woman was .raised upon the bed, her

eyes fixed upon her husband as though
she could never cease to look she strove
to sneak. An asony of intense love
was in her looks and tones, she knew
that she was to be bome away from
her other self aud in the agony of that
oart'nff all other ills were swallowed
up. The poor husband was heart
broken; all were weeping and a wail of
sorrow filled the room. It was a pit
eous scene and one never to be for
gotten. We approached the bed and
asked "Is : she going!" "Yes" was
the answer. "Oh! that is well" said

THE SKW Jt A I LRU AD.
S. F. Alta: The excursion of Cali-
fornians to witness the driving of the
last spike on the California ami Ore
gon road was suggested by the Altn,
and carried out successfully by jthe
state board of trade. That organiza
tion took charge of affairs arid secured
a representation in the party fiom six- '
teen counties. Thete representatives
were drawn from every leading indus
try and profession in the state. They are
men who have been d.Iig-nt in tbiur
business and nre fit to tand before .
kings. Each in his : way, they l-ave
created this new California, which is
pushing its rivalry against the sunny
side of Europe, for en this continent
it has no competitor; and by rean of '
it products, which, deprridint upon a
unique climate, differ from ail. others,
it has no home jealousies. The exjte ,v .
rience of this representative body of
Califomi&na has nirsde them wise in .
estimtting the capacity of a country,
and eo-tlie-y weni to Oregon as a jury

We must hereafter draw much froit
Oregon and she must draw much fron.
But let it be remembered that
this railroad has not merely given us
Oregon for these commercial exchanges.
It has opened the noith. Look at the
map and see over what a tedious voy

California. Loo again and see tha
the reciprocal conditions which begir

The following information iu Uiid' to
emanate from Mr. Campbell, the U. S.
Consul to Auckland, lie states tliat in
that country is found an enemy to tho
codlin moth which he describes as fol
lows: In the Wanganui district the na
tives plant in their orchards & vine
called phyBiuithus, which can be trained
to run up the trunks of the apple trees
and spread itself over the branches with--
out any possible injury to the trees. It'
bears a profusion of fragrant whitish;
flowers that bloom from spring., to au-
tumn. They are filled with sweets and .
attract all sorts of honey-gatliering in- ,
sects. The codlin moth finds tht m as 1
naturally as a duck finds water, and rind- -ing
them, in order to reach the hi-ney,'
it inserts its proboscis through a narrow
cleft in the flower so shaped that although
the proboscis can be readily inserted it
cannot be withdrawn. The leaves- act
much as the wires of an entrance to
an old-fashioned rat trap act, and holds
the moth a prisoner till he dies. It is a
genuine vegatuble trap, baited and
worked by Dama INature herself.
If Mr. Cami.teUjacecidT-
planthe describes can be naturalized in
America it would prove a boon indued
