BT CHARLES J. DUNTOT, 
LrFE le bnt a fleeting dream, 
Care destroys the zest of it; 
Swift it glideth like a stream— 
Mind you make the beet of it 1 
Talk not of your weary woes, 
Troubles, or the rest of it; 
If we have bnt brief repose, 
Let as make the best of it I 
If your friend has got a heart, 
There is something Sue in him 
Cast away his darker part, 
Chug to what’s divine in him. 
Friendship is our best relief— 
Make no heart less jest of it; 
It will brighten every grief, 
If we make the best of it. 
Happiness despises state, 
'Tls no sad experiment, 
Simply that the wise and great 
May hove joy and merriment; 
Rank is not its spell refined— 
Money’s not the test of it, 
Bat a calm contented mind, 
That will ni3ke the best of it. 
Trnsting in the Power above. 
Which, sustaining all of u« 
In one common bond of lave, 
Blndeth great and small of us. 
Whatsoever may befall— 
Sorrows or the rest of it— 
We shsdljo'eroome them all, 
If wc make the beat of It.

“Mother,” said Jeiulma Spry to her vener¬ 
able maternal relative, “Sam Flint wants to 
come courting me to-night." “ Well, you jade, 
what did you tell him?” ‘‘Oh, I told him he 
might come ; I wanted to see how the darned fool 
would act. 1 ” 
“ So you are going to teach a school?” said a 
young lady to her maiden aunt. “ Well, for tny 
part, soouer than do that, I would marry a 
widower with nine children.” “I should prefer 
that life myself,” was the quiet reply; “but— 
where is the widower ?” 
“The times are 60 hard I can scarcely manage 
to keep my nose above water,” said a husband 
the other day to bis wife, who was importuning 
him for a new dress. “No,” she replied with 
some asperity, “but you manage to keep it 
above brandy eapy enough.”

When Sheridan, by the assistance of his

face ai-id seek, of all others, Lucella King, 
whose insipidity was a by-word with us girls ! — 
bow could I ever hear that ? 
I had seated myself at the window on my 
return, full of these thoughts, and by this time, 
as miserable as possible. It seemed a long time 
that I sat there before she and Andrew came 
along; and then the look of disdainful triumph 
which Lee ell a gave roc, destroyed what little 
self-control I had left. How beautiful she 
looked though, with some of the brilliant car¬ 
dinal flower- twined in her hair, and her cheeks 
flushed with the unwonted exereise! Andrew 
was carrying her collections and book. 
“Don’t you feel well,” kindly inquired my 
aunt, wuo noticed my pallid looks, and became 
alarmed. 
“ No, I will go out,” I said; and taking my 
bonnet I rushed from the house to hide my¬ 
self and my grief from sight. 
My tears hurst forth, and I walked up and 
down under the maple trees weeping with all 
the passion an undisciplined mind shows nnder 
its first sorrow. All the childish troubles I had 
ever known came rushing to my recollection, 
and 1 lived them over again, — the longiDg for a 
great love, which I had known siuce my orphan¬ 
hood began, until Andrew’s friendship had 
come to form so large a part of my life, filling 
my heart. In my inexperience I thought i 
could have endured any other trial but the one 
that seemed to hang over me—to he second in 
Andrew’s heart. Oh! the thought seemed like 
death. Thoughts of my uncle and aunt came 
up; I called to mind their claims on me for their 
kindness. I had ever promised myself to be a 
dutiful child to them in their old age; but how 
bleak and barren would seem the way without 
Andrew by my side! 
I had often read of deserted heroines who ral¬ 
lied their pride to their aid aud hade defiance to 
the betrayers of their affection; but I felt that If 
I had been deceived, either purposely or other¬ 
wise, by Andrew, I could not hide my grief. 
1 seemed incapable even of making an effort 
to do so. 
At last, exhausted by the violence of my emo¬ 
tions, I seated myself beneath a gigantic maple 
and leaned my head against the rough bark, 
trying to forget that here had been the favorite 
play-ground of Andrew and myself years ago, 
and a favorite retreat always, when I heard foot¬ 
steps approaching and a voice which made my 
heart hound, calling, “ Kate, Kate, where are 
yon?” and in a moment more Andrew had 
seated himself by my side. 
“Kate, dear Kate,” said he,” is it possible 
that you do not know how well I love you ? I 
think it is time we came to an understanding. 
Is all this grief caused by my deserting yon this 
afternoon for that little, insipid coquette? I 
really could not avoid being civil to the poor 
thing, she was so much out of her sphere, but I 
bad no idea it would hurt your feeliDg* so. I 
meant to have everything made right, and get 
the consent of our parents for our engagement 
before I go away next winter; hut I did not 
know just how to begin, you and I have been 
so much like brother and sister. Now, Kate, 
just be as frank as I have been and let me hear 
you say, ‘I love you,’ and there shall never 
come another shadow between our hearts so
