BUrn disappointment! you're my friend,
Although you're hard to bear!
I asked for joy, and in its stead
You've brought me near despair.
I sought for pearls of priceless worth.
And, from your cruel store.
You've given me granite from the rock
And pebblus from the shore.
But, heavy as your touch has been,
I've learned to bear its weight.
And, drawing good from something UI,
I've struggled with my fate.
And when the aony had paired
Beheld, with glad surprise,
That pain, and sorrow, and distress,
Were angels in disguise.
I've learned that granite from the rock,
And lobbies from ths tide,
Slav be tn ployed for useful ends,
, WKrtttBarls have been Rented.
S j, disappointments! do your worst!
And, scorning to complain,
I'll stand unconquered and confess
You've not been sent in vain,

Miss Pandora I'iper, teacher of mu
sic, who bad hard work to keep soul
and body together, but was not unhappy,
becaue, as she BaiJ, she was uever left
without a new bonDct for Easter Sun
day, and one black silk, somehow, al
ways managed to last until she could get
a new one, received a very singular
note which had been handed in at the
door, the landlady's "girl" said, by an
"elderly gentleman."
The epistle was enveloped ia the
cobtiiestand roo.t richly decorated en
velope that could bo purcured for love
or money anywhere. The paper, nearly
as thick as cardboird, was to match.
A coat ijf arms was in the coiner, and
the worctilow were as follows:
.Miss Piper: A IVisun fif neghicted

"My. gracions!" ejaculated Miss Pan
dora; "he mutt have beau neglected,
that's certain. I never saw anything
like that before in all my life! Fatally
forgotten, I should say! Well, I won
der what he can be like. He must be
rich I suppose. Poor people cau't af
ford such stationery as this. And a coat
of arms, too! Shoddy, I suppose; but so
that he's respectful, why should I care
for that? He will probably pay wall,
and I've lost Auna Eliza Griggs, by
marriage, j ust as she was beginning to
take variations."
"Nora, I shall be in if a new pupil '
a gentleman calls at three o'clock."
Nora, who liked Miss Piper, who
often gave her little presents, and who
kept on an upper shelf of her closet
seme balsam which she was always
ready to apply to the poor girl's awk
ward fingers, which rere always being
cut, or burnt, pinched, fcave an amiable
grin, and offered to polish up the grate

stranger was coining.
The morning wore away. Two little
girls had gone through their exercises,
and a heavy lady, who took lessons in
vocal music, had nearly burst a blood

At the doer, however, lie give her a
dreadful sheet.
"I wish, mum," he reanarked, "to
begin with tunes."
Miss I'iper was a conscientious little
teacher, but she felt that there were
people in this world who must have
their own way; and Mr. Sliger'e Urat
lesson consisted of the "White Cock
ade." He had a very good ear, and was
anxious te learn. From the "White
Cockade" he went en to, "Life Let XT
Cherish, " and poor, guilty Miss Piper,
who felt that the notes had very lit tie
to do with his performance, heat time
and counted.
- Meanwhile - she found, thai; leaving
education out of the question, the man
was very sensible that he was kindly
and amiable. Once, corrected on the
pronunciation of a word, he never be
came a backslider on that werd. How
evevt was he who arranged everything
not his teacher.
As ether lessons were added, the
neglected person set the hours for them;
finally he had six hours a day. All the
pupils were dismissed but one. The
spelling lesson, the lessou in geography,
the lesson in history, followed each
other. All the week days were his.
Poor Miss Piper had no power to say
him cay He paid well, he treated her
with actual reverence; but the last pu
pil went when he elected to copy some
very flat "flower pieces" which Miss
Piper had executed in early youth, .and
ojillthisa lesson io jointing. He bad
all her week days at last, lie certainly
had improved in -Vonunciation, but

Whet they realT. did was to spend
tho day together exactly as ha 'ciuse.
Playiugwith educational books, thump
nig tne piaso, diinbiug Unst-ji board
with impossible flowers, scrambling
through the lesson in French of which
Miss Piper had a quarter from a Swiss
gentleman.
For a long time she was alone on
Sunday, and usually went to the Meth
odist church, to whioh she belonged;
but Mr. Sliger soon altered that. He
began by asking her whether they had
"these vespers" of he's at the Cathe
dral on Sunday moruiiig. And when
she instructed him that "vespers" were
in the latter part of the day, he said
he wonld call for her.
Accordingly she went to vespers at
the Cathedral in the afternoon, and af
ter that, regularly three times a day to
different churches.
Meanwhile Miss Piper and Mr. Sliger 1
peered threugh the teleacepe and saw
the rings of Saturn, which Mr. Sliger
supposed to be phenomenal and tempo
rary, aud which were explained by
Miss Pacdora to be fixtures, and then
adjourned to an ice cream saloon of
much elegance.
"This iudeed Is desperate disaipatien,
Miss Pandora said te herself, as she sat
betore the cut-glass goblet on the dam
ask cloth, aud saw the water splash
from the little fountain in the centre in
to the aquarium," aud over the glossy
plants, all. reflected in the loug mirrors.
However, what did it matter? She was
already "talked about." turned out of
her lodgings aa- srsfwoa who had gone
wrong. .She" fcep - ttiis -oieiry
moment to remember when she had pat
an end to all this, by saykig to the neg
lected pupil that nbe could no longer
impart instructions to him.
He was ordering every indigestible
luxury on the bill of fare, the diamond
en his little tin gei flashed like a small
sun, obsequieas waiters bobbing about
behind him. He looked liudly at her
and asked her if she liked this or that.
He was simple as an old baby; as kind as
an old lady; and be was a pleasaut-look
ingman. !
"All over! All over!" she said to her
self. "I might have known what a
wicked world this is, aud how ill it
thinks of innocent things. Why might
I not go on teaching him forever with
eut harm!"
People were coming in from concerts,
from the theatres; tables were filling,
bat theirs, between two columns, bey
ond the fountain,, was very quiet.
The waiters werajine to execute Mr.
Sliger's beheots. ' Suddenly he turned
t j her and "2k a iettar from his pock-
s.t. .
"Miss Piper," he said, "reed (hat."
Miss Pandora opened the missive and
perused it.
It was from a firm of lawyers, speak
ing in plain terms of Mr. St. Leger as a
gentleman and a man of honor and for
tune. "I got 'em to give it to me," he laid,
"to show to you." i
"I did not need it, indeed," said Miss
Pandora, sadly. "And this is the way
your name is really spelt? St. Leger;
it's a beautiful name."
' "It sounds a little curious to me," he
said. "Mother wrote it Sliger. I nev
er knew. But you see I'm all right.
They never toek me without a- charac

it was: Father was very rich and np

She ran away; she came here, and lived

could come in at any moment. Nora
is iu and out every now and then. Such
a respectable elderly gentleman, and
such a correct person as I am!"
"It inn't me, Pandora," said Mrs.
Grimm, quite melted, "it's the neigh
borhood. The church-going (if it is
ciuircn) nuisuea em. lours ot age
this long while, my dear; but I can't
countenance this. I shall put up the
bill. Oh, oh, Pandora! that it should
come to this!"
Poor Miss Pandora!
As her friend and landlady walked
out ot the door with her bai.dkerchief
to her eves, she stood motionless, as
though turned to a pillar of salt.
She saw just how this repair of neg
lected education must appear to her
small circle of discarded pupils, and
felt a Btrong desire to drown herself or
jump out of the window, or turn on
the gas, or take a box of matches ,n her
tea, and she might actually, it seemed
to her afterwards, have died of mortifi
cation, but that the gang of the front
door, pulled violently at this moment
startled her, aud Nora, running up,
wrapped in a waterproof cloak, for she
had been making preparations to go to
bed, announced:
"Mr. Sliger!'
"He can't come np," said Pandora,
"at this hour of the night."
"No, miss; he asks for you to come
down," said Kara.
Pandora went down.
Mr. Sliger was at the doer.
"There's
he said;
star or other, I believe. Get a bonnet
and a shawl and come and have 'a peep.
It will be a lesson in astienomy for sue.
Yon can explain it, you know same
terms as other lesson. "
Pandora obeyed without a word.
The door closed after Pandora, leav
ing Mrs. Unium staring at Nora.
"Thai's the capsheaf? said Mrs.
Grimm.
"New," said Mrs. Grimm, I will."
don't know whether you despise me for
my ignorance or not, but if you don't,
why, 1 want yon to take me tor your
pupil for life to marry me, you know,
Pandora. Will you?"
It was a dreadful thing to do in each
a public place, but Pandora Piper felt
that she was going to faint the room
grew dark
She held out her hand for a glass of
water. Most of it was spilt on the front
breadth of her new black silk, but that
which passed her lips relieved her. Then
a sweet soft sense that there was no
more trouble for her in this world, crept
into her heart, and site smiled np at
him.
"It was in my mind the first day I
came," he said. "I had seen yeu often
through the window when you gave les
sons to the little girl at Bell's- I felt
sure you were just the woman for me
and every lesson you gave me proved it
I shall learn everything from yaa
goodness as well as spelling. Uh, say
'yes.
Mrs. Grimm was sitting up for her,
pale with wrath, when she returned
but Pandora took her by both hands
and said:
"You won't turn me out until after
my weddine day, will yon? You'll let
me be married here? It's to be aex
week. Mr. St. Leger won't wait. You
see we will have to go to England and
live on the estate. And, after all,
poor little music teacher needs no great
preparation.
"Servants and diamonds, aud a coun
try house aud a city house, and every
thing heart can wish, "Mrs. Grimm says
aow. "It's like a root tuce."
And Pandora, happy with her good,
simple husband, io her new surround
ings, often thinks so herself.

Contract Labor East.
There was a debate in the Senate
of the United States last . week on
what may, be called a phase of the
Chinese question. - It sprung np on
tne bill prohibiting tbe Importation
of laborers under eontracts made in
foreign countries. The, courts had
for a Ions; time refused to allow
such contracts, for they were en
tered in places beyond jthe jurisdic
tion of the United States and un
der conditions which produced an
unfair competition in the labor
market here. But in (he height of
the war there was a scarcity of la
bor which it was very difficult te
meet. The wage-workers had gone
in immense masses to the front and
there were not enough left behind
to produce the articles needed, not
only for the army, but the country
at large. A bill was j than passed
to allow contracts for labor te be
marla abroad. ETndar it larra num
bers of men were imported for Beef. Pork, Mutton,
workshops and mines. But the
practice is now continued, notwith
standing that there is no scarcity of
labor; on the contrary, there are
said to be 300.000 wage workers
idle.
Laborers, especially from South
eastern Europe, where the pay is
not much higher than it is in China,
are being imported in large num
bers. These people gladly bind
themselves to work fur long terms
at fifty cents per day. aud less. Tbe
effect on Pennsylvania, especially,
'has been disastrous in the extreme.
The laberii.g classes there have been
reduced by this competition, in
some eases, to a far; more pinched
condition than the I corresponding
classes in England, France or Ger
many They are not able to clothe
or feed themselves and their fam

bill now before the Senate is in
tended to stop a practice which
should have been brought to an eeured at reasonable rates. Tho BED-
