Dowa by a stream where lilies grow, And birds carol their sweetest song, A pensive lad was wont to go, And wander all the evening long.

A student diligent was he, Until a few short days age ; First in his class, beloved and free, He won fast friends and knew no foe.

How great the change, behold him now, Beating a path among the flowers,

With downcast eyes and saddened brow, Eve after eve for weary hours.

His feathered friends amid the trees, Sing merrily their evening praise, As if to cheer him ; but he sees And hears no music in their lays.

How came he thus to be estranged Krom his companions blithe and gay,

And thus to wander there, so changed In mien, amid youth’s bright array?

Has fickle fortune ceased to guide His steps along the paths of lore ?

Has some dear friend or sister died, ihe loss of whom he must deplore?

Ah ! no, a sorrow greater far,

Than these has made him weep and sigh ; One that will never cease to mar,

The brightest hopes however high.

A simple tale ; he chanced one night To ‘tend a social in the town ;

"Twas there the flower received the blight, Which has thus quickly borne it down.

A pair of blue eyes, dancing bright, Beneath a wealth of auburn hair, Was the small cause of this great plight, And proved more than the youth could bear.

In vain he strove to win a smile, They only answered with a frown,

And sadder still he saw, the while, Another win the wished for crown.

And now his friends and teachers kind, Strive to console his grief, but he

Flees from their presence ; and they find That comforted he will not be.

His dormitory, once so bright With merriments, is silent now ;

His books, which once were his delight, Dispel no gloom from off his brow.

And now, dear students, warning take, By this sad tale ; though sad, yet true ;

Bend to your books, let nothing shake Your aim ; all other things subdue.

For Jearning is a jealous elf,

Who is content with nothing else Than your whole mind, and heart, and self ; And grudges even one caress.

Be true to her and she will prove A blessing, truly good and great ; Give her your mind, your strength and love ; At least until you graduate. J. B. DockenvOoRFE. Southport, P. E. I. ~- #+O@0@

THE FAIR GOD.

By Lew Wallace.

CHAPTER XI. (Continued. )

Quite a number of arrows were thus inter- changed by the parties without effect, as they were always dexterously intercepted. The passge was but the preluding skirmish, par- ticipated in by all but the ’tzin, who, after his first shot, stood a little apart from his com- rades, and, resting his long bow on the ground, watched the trial with apparent in- difference. Like the Chalcan, he seemed to regard it as play; and the populace after a while fell into the same opinion: there

So there began to arise murmurs and cries, which the Cholulan was the first to observe and interpret. Under an

impulse which had relation, probably, to hi+ first failure, he resolved to avai) himself of the growing feeling. Thiowing down his bow, he seized the maqguahuitl at his back, and, without a word to his friends, started impetuously across the arena. The peril was great, for every foeman at once turned his arrow against him.

Then the ‘tzin stirred himself. ‘* The boy is mad, and will die if we do not go with him,” he said; and already his foot was ad- vanced to follow, when the young Othmi sprarg forward from the other stde to meet the Cholulan.

The eagerness lest an incident should be lost became intense; even the king sat up to see the duel. The theatre rang with cries of encouragement—none, however, so cheery as that of the elder Othmi, whose feelings of paternity were, forthe mement, lost in his passion of warrior.

The combatants Were apparently well matched, being about equal in height and age; both brandished the magquahuitl, the deadliest weapon known to their wars Wielded by both hands and swung high abov: the head, its blades of glass generally clove their way to the life. Abou midway th. arena the foemen met. At the instant of con- tact the Cholulan brought a downward blow, weil aimed, at the head of his antagonist; but the lithe Othmi, though at full speed, swerved like a bird on the wing. A great shout at- tested the »ppreciation of the audience. The Cholulan wheeled, with his weapon uplifted for another blow; the action cailed his left arm into play, and drew his shield from its guard. The Othmi saw the advantage. One step nearer, and then, with a sweep of his arm and an upward stroke, he drove every blade deep into the side of his enemy. The lifted weapon dropped in its half-finished circle, the shield flew wildly up, and with a groan, the victim fell heavily to the sand, struggled once to rise, fell back again, and his battles were ended for ever. A cry ot anguish went out from under the royal canopy.

‘* Hark !’ cried Xoli. ‘‘ Did you hear the old Cholulan? See! They are leading him from the platform !’

Except that cry, however, not a voice was heard; trom rising apprehension as to the re. sult of the combat, or touched by a pssing sympathy for the early death, the multitude was perfectly hushed.

‘*That was a brave blow, Xoli; but let him

beware now!” said Hualpa excitedly. Aad ia expectation of imstamt vepgeauce,

arena he glanced, then back to his friends. Retreat would forfeit the honor gained; death was preferable. So he knelt upon the breast of his enemy, and, setting his shield before him, waited sternly and in silence the result. And Iztlil’ and Tlahua launched their arrows at him in quick succession, but Guatamozin was as inditferent as ever.

‘* What ails the 'tzin” said Maxtla to the king. ‘* The Othmi is at his mercy.”

The monarch deigned no_ reply.

The spirit of the old Othmi rose. On the sand behind him, prepared for service, was a cart with three points of copper, and a long cord by which to recover it when thrown. Catching the weapon up, and shouting, ‘I am coming, I am coming !” he ran to avert or share the danger. The space to be crossed was inconsiderable, yet such was his animation, that, as he ran, he poised the dart, and exposed his hand above the shield. The ’tzin raised his bow, and let the arrow fly. lt struck right amongst the supple joints of the veteran's wrist. The unhappy man man stopped bewil- dered ; over the theatre he looked, then at the wound; in despair he tore the shaft out with histeeth, ard rushing till he reached the boy.

The ouburst of acclamation shook the thea- tre.

‘** To have seen such archery, Xoli, were worth all the years of a hunter’s life!” said Hualpa.

The Chalcan smiled like a connoisseur, and replied, ‘‘ It is nothing. Wait !”

And now the combat again presented a show of equality. The advantage, if there was any, was thought to be with the. Aztecs, since the loss of the Cholulan was not to be weighed against the disability of the Othmi. Thus the populace was released from appre- hension, without any abatement of interest; indeed, the excitement increased, for there was a promise of change in the character of the contest; from quiet action was growing bloody action.

The Tlascalans, alive to the necessity of supporting their frieuds, advanced to where the Choluian lay, but more cautiously. When they were comeup, the Othmies both arose, and calmly perfected the front. The astonish- ment at this was very great.

‘** Brave fellow ! He is worth ten live Cho- lulans !’ said Xoli. ‘* But now look boy ! The challengers have advanced half-way; the Aztecs must meet them.”’

The conjecture was speedily verified. Iztil’ had, in tact, ill-brooked the superior skill, or better fortune, of the ’tzin; the applause of the populace had been worse than wounds to his jealous heart. Till this time, however, he had restrained his passion; now the foe were ranged as if challenging attac* ; he threw away his useless bow, and laid his hands on his maquahuitl.

‘** It is not for an Aztec god that we are fighting, O comrade !” he cried to Tlahua. It is for ourselves. Come, let us show yon king a better war !”

And without waiting, he set on. The Ot- tompan followed, leaving the ’tzin alone. The call had not been to him, and as he was fight- ing for the god, and the Tecucan for himself, he merely placed another bow on his arrow, and observed the attack.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

What Are You a te Do About

Srr,—You are aware how imperfect is the drainage of the city of Charlottetown, and how much the slop and waste water depends on simple soakage for its depart- ure, when it does not contribute a DeCourcy compound in the dust bin. The reading public very properly looks to the daily press for informauion upon all ques-

not enough danger to fully interest them..,

tions that affect the public welfare, because itisone of the potencies of reformation and improvement. What are the city

was | @uthorities going to do about the necessity

for drains, when in addition to slops, foecal matter, and house waste, is added a multi- tude of water supply pipes flooding with- out flushing, and while running everywhere really running nowhere? You know there are a good many difficulties to be met in an undrained city besides laying water pipes fora free hand, with pure water. What comes in, must in some way go out again, for if both streams of Water be allowed to mingle with the already filth- saturated ground, and act as an additional dissolvent to putrid garbage, the day is not far distant when the mourners will again go about the streets and follow fever- stricken victims to their long homes.

When improvements have been made in buildings did the city take any account of the drains? It seems doubtful, for some are tetotally choked, others (as Sam Wel- ler said) ‘‘circumwented,” and _ others again simply ‘* pooled.”

What I would suggest would be for the city authorities to take up this subject with a vigor, determination and sense, commensurate with its importance, and strehuous'y, if they can’t reach godliness, go for the next thing to it, for the town’s sake and
