The Iron Pen,

Made from a Fetter of Bonnivard, the Pris- oner of Chillon; the Handle of Wood from the Frigate ‘*Constitution,” and bound with a Circlet of Gold, inset with three precious Stones from Siberia, Cey- Jon, and Maine.

I thought this Pen would arise From the casket where it lies—

Of itself would arise, and write My thanks and my surprise.

When you gave it me under the pines, I dreamed these gems from the mines Of Siberia, Ceylon, and Maine

Would glimmer as thoughts in the lines ;

That this Iron Link from the chain Of Bonnivard might retain

Some verse of the Poet who sang On the prisoner and his pain ;

That this wood from the frigate’s mast Mizht write mea rhyme at last,

As it used to write on the sky The song of the sea and the blast.

But motionless as I wait, Like a Bishop lying in state

Lies the Pen, with its mitre of gold, Av its jewels inviolate.

Then must I speak and say

That the light of that summer day la the garden under the pines

Shall not fade and pass away.

I shall see you standing there,

Caressed by the fragrant air, With the shadow on your face,

And the sunshine on your hair.

I shall hear the sweet low tone Of a voice before unknown,

Saying ‘* This is from me to you— From me, and to you alone.”

And in words not idle and vaiu

I shall answer, and thank you again Vor the gift, and the grace of the gift,

O beautiful Helen of Maine.

An forever this gift will be As a blessing from you to me, As a drop of the dew of your youth On the leaves of an aged tree. Heary W. Lougfellow, in Harper's Maga- zine for December. a <8

HoW 1 GOT MY WIPE. A Conductor's Story.

‘Where are you going, Dick ?’

‘Hack to chat with my throngh pas- sengers.’

And Dick Davis, the conductor, left the mail car, and entered the through coach attached to the train. Closing the door, he walked straight to an old man seated in the centre of the car. His hair and beard were as white as snow’, but there were no crow’s feet on his /orehead nor wrinkles on his cheeks. His eyes flashed with the light of lusty manhood, theugh his hair would indi- cate that he had crossed the boundaries of three-score years. He smiled when the pleasant-faced conductor dropped into the seat before him, and, leaning forward, made a remark in a low tone of voice. This remark caused Davis to raise his head and gaze at the beau-~ tiful face of the girl who slept in the seat behind the white-bearded passen- ger.

‘She slept like a child,’ the conduc- tor said, admiring the face, and wish- jog perhaps that he could enjoy such a slum ber.

‘She always sleeps that way,’ respon- ded ithe passenger, with a smile; ‘and when she wakes sheis as fresh asa rose.’

‘Your daughter has company, I see,’ observed Davis, glancing at the remain- der of the car, who appeared to be sleep- ing.

‘Yes; are they going through ?’

‘Oh yes; none but through passen gers are almitted on this coach. They are not communicative fellow-travel lers, | should say.’

‘'hey are not,’ replied the old man. ‘Mr. Davis, | do not like my travelling companions,’ and the speaker’s voice was lowered.

fhe conductor looked surprised. ‘Will you explain, Mr. Radcliff? <A shot time previous to the present con- versation, the conductor and his pas- senver had exchanged names, and were thus enabled to calieach other properly.

‘} can scarcely explain,’ was the passenger's reply, ‘ There is a man in the fourth seat from the stove, whom, unaccountably, I do not like. He boarded the train at Romney, and I have caught him looking askance at myself and Mabel. Then the fellow who appears to be asleep three seats behind him on the opposite side of the aisle has been guilty of the same thing, and [ believe there is a connexion bes tweon the parties. I do not want you to think [ fear them. Never in my life—and [ have passed through the will tribes of the Amazonian valley— have I fered man. Over there lies the only jewel to which I cling,’ and he noided toward the slumbering girl. ‘Sho is the sole creature through whose veins runs my blood, and. you must know that she is dear to me.’

‘Vertainly, Mr. Radcliff,’ said Davis ‘your entire solicitude is for her,’

‘ Exactly

‘ Do you know those two fellows ??

‘! do not ; never saw them befere in all iny life.’-

Conductor Davis thought a moment. ‘Yourself and daughter can avoid them by taking up quarters in the forward

ear. I assure you that you will not be regarded as intruders, and that the ac- commodations will not lack comfort,’ But the passenger gently declined the eor.ductor’s offer,and said that he would finish his journey in the coach he had been placed in for that purpose. After afew more words Davis left the coach and passed into the express car, where he goon appeared to forget his passen- gers in a conversation with the messen- ger. ~ The door had hardly closed on the eonductor’s form whea the man near eat the stove showed signs of animation, He turned his head and looked up the dimly-lighted aisle, not forgetting to let his eyes rest on the old traveller and his daughter. Ife was a handsome man, about thirty-five years of age, and above his luxuriant crop of silky au- burn whiskers shone a pair. of mild blue eyes. Not one man in a hundred would have taken him fora rascal. He

was well, almost flashly, dressed ; there(

was a handsome diamond pin on bis

bosom, and a crested ring on his hand. Concluded in our next...

Reform in Russia.

Reforms in Russia are again spoken of, but the people of that sadly misgoverned country have had a dear experience of Romanoff ideas of Reform. Never-yet has a member of that family announced his in- tention of granting consessions of Liberty and Reform but the announcement was found tobe a mask for tyrannical encroach- ments. Even the boasted abolition of serf- doin was a measure dictated by liuperial fear of tho nobility, and merely transferred the vassals from the nobility to the Crown. The right of a peasant to remove from the estate on which he was born is still denied, while his claim to the soil has been abolish- ed. This*is a fair specimen of Russian liberty, and certainly shows that there is plenty of room for reform, but it must not, be forgotten that Reform, in its trne sense, and Russian Imperialism are incompatible. The only way reforms will ever be establish- ed in Russia will be by revolution and the overthrow of the Romanoff family-—which is, perhaps, the most able, most crafty, most cruel and most utterly conscienceless family that ever wore the purple. Romanoff reforms ! Tiger’s tendertiess.

Household Hints.

To Curt Hams.—This receipt is flity years old, and it is the best. To each twenty pounds of green meat make a mix- ture of one fourth of a pound of brown sugar and a dessertspoonful of ground saltpetre; rub this well by hand into the meat; then with coarse salt cover the bot- tom of a barrel up to half an inch; put in hams, and cover with half an inch of salt, and so until the barrel is full; hams should remain in’a cool place four weeks; when salted, wipe and dry them, and get sume whole black pepper, which you must grind yourself, and pepper thoroughly, especially about the heck and bone; Ict the ham lie for two days; then smoke for eight weeks.

Cure ror Cotps.—Boil two ounces of flaxseed in one quart of water ; strain, and add two ounces rock candy, one-half pint syrup or honey, juice of three lemons ; mix, and let all boil well; let cool and bot- tle. Dose, one cupful before bed, one half cupful before meals. The hotter you drink it the better. :

Sugt Poppinc.—Four eggs, half pound suet, one pint bread crumbs, one quart milk, half teaspoonful each of cinna- mon and nutmeg, two tablespoonfuls of flour ; chop the suet very fine, and beat the eggs thoroughly ; heat the milk scalding hot, and pour it over the crumbs ; mix tho suet, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour (the lat- ter wet a little to prevent. lumps), and beat all together ; add eggs ; swecten to taste ; add salt, and brown in oven half an hour. sae

A German has discovered—what wont a German discover /—that 29 per cent. of men and 71 per cent. of women miss rail- road trains. But that German should re- member that a woman’s back hair always wants fixing just at the critical moment, while the men generally have very little if any hair to trouble them.

Constitutional Catarrh Remedy CURES CATARRE.

Hear what a Reverend Gentleman says of ‘the Constitutional Remedy.

T. J. B. Harpixa, Esq., Brockville, Ont.:— Dear Str—It is now two years since your “Constitutional Catarrh Remedy’ was intro- duced to me. Ihave waited this ong tos

if the eure would remain permanent Scand

ying this, my duty, to you, as at first the hap

eflects seemed to me to be ‘‘too good to true.” 1 was.afilicted in my head for years before I suspected it to be Catarrh. In reading in your Circuiar I saw my case described in many par- ticulars. The inward ‘‘drop” from the head had become very disagreeable, and a choking sensation often preventing me from lying long, I would feel like smothering and be com to sit up in the bed. My health and spirits were seriously affected. When your agent c:ime to Walkertown in August, 1876, I secured three bottles. Before I had used a quarter of the contents of one bottle | found decided re- lief, and when I had used two bottles and s third, i quit taking it, feeling quite clear of that ailment, and have not used any since until of late I have taken some for a cold in my 4. sense of duty to sufierers from that loath- some disease, Catarrh, prompts me to send you this Certificate, unmnoliek with leave to make’ what use of it yon may see proper Yours tru-y, W. TINDALL, Methodist Minister.
