Out in the country the bells were ringing, Out in the fields was a child at play, And up to heaven a lark went singing Blithe nnJ free on that morn of May. mlthe child looked up as she heard the sing "g, , H'at hing the lark at it soaVed away: "Oh, swet lark, tell me, heav'nward wing ins, .' . f Shall I go also to heaven one day?" Deep in the shade of a mighty city, Toiled a woman for daily bread, Only the lark to see her and pity, Singing all day in a caee o'erhead. And there they dwelt in the gloom together, Prisoned and pent in the narrow street, But the bird still sang of the golden weather. And the woman dreampt of her childhood sweet. Still in her dreams the bells were ringing, Still a child in the fields was she; --fn And she opened the cage as the lark was singing, Kissed him gently and set him free. And up and ou as the bird went singing, Down came a voice that seemed to say. "E'en as the lark that is heavn'wafld wing ing. . Thou shalt go also to heav'n one day. f '. E. Weatherly, in CasseP. HER FIRST ENGAGEMENT. BY FRANCES EDWARDS. A very pretty gray team and a rather old-fashioned basket phaeton stood in trout ot a large, creanv brick house on tiiiton avenue, one jluesday morning in late June. The air and sunshine and sky were perfect. A most tempting morning ior a drive. The owner of the turnout. Colonel Baker, was within the mansion soliciting J 8Q0 seemed to radiate happiness. such an extensive acquaintance." Al-! most every day during the remainder of the summer they were companions, rid ing, walking, fishing, sailing. vt. w hitbeck was more at his ease in the open air. Ilis scientific knowledge often came into use, ana he grew to be a Bort of hero a skilled hero in her eyes; she thought there was nothing he did not know and could not do. To him, this child-woman crrew more charming every ,dav. Her innocence and open admiration for him was quite too much for his Teserve, which melted completely away in the sunshine of her presence. She was such a lovable little maiden, with her merry If ugh and ready sympatny. He aid not .realize how he had opened his heart to her and the strength of his passion until it was too late. When he did see his dancer with strange fatuity he said to himself: "She does not know it. I'll make no resist ance now, out go on and be happy in me p. esent, ns I shall probably never again know happiness in my life." So they naa parted without one word of love being spoken. The following winter Dr. Whitbeck had commenced practicing in the same city where Hazel lived.- She met him occasionally and invited him to call, but he was always busy and a strange cool ness grew up between them. He actually seemed to avoid her. bhe thought with a woman's sensitiveness that she had been silly and' foolish, and he regarded her as too trilling a piece of humanity to be worthy of his least attention, so with equal coolness she studiously avoided him. The: summer days slipoed away, she and the colonel enjoying many a drive m bylvan rark. bhe made a visit to Effie and came home looking prettier, if possible, than ever. With her thorough ly hopeful disposition and perfect health returned, she found herself in bed with frightened, tearful group around her and Dr. "Whitebeck calmly pouring tome- luiuir uuwu uer mroai. lie usa iuai put her displaced shoulder in order, and she felt a terrible dizziness in her head. Then he ordered everybody oat of the room and lowered a window, saying she must have more air. He wrote oat his prescriptions and was ready to leave. He stepped to the side of the bed. Hazel's eyes were closed, but the teats were run-" mng down her temples. He set his teeth together, but it was no use. v "Forgive me!" he said, la a tone of agonized entreaty. 'Oh, GoMl I might have killed you.'!. Hazel opened her eyes ery wide She gave him a look . which said -plainly: "1 love you," and with a faint .inula closed her eyes again. In a moment he was ou his .Dees be side the bed,-and, quivering - with long repressed passion," ho exclaimed " r "Hazel, Hazel, my uarimgi Do you love met Do you! Tell me, love! Oh!" he went on, "I never meant to tell you this; not until I had something more to offer than an empty hand ; but I love you with all the strength of my being, Do you forgiye me!" She smiled again and said. "There is nothing to forgive, dear." Then he .bent over and kissed her again, oh. so. fondly. "Tell me, dear est, that you will be mine some day. I must hear you say it." "Oh," she answered with a little sigh of happiness, "I am entirely yours." There is little more to tell. Her recov ery was rapid, with a physician and lover in one. The colonel found out his mistake. But at the wedding Hazel whispered to her first bridesmaid, Effie, that she thought first proposal lucky. The colonel had sent her a lovelv dia mond bracelet for a wedding present. Detroit free Yew, Miss Hazel Traft's company for a drive. The young lady had not the slightest objection to going with him. He was an old friend of her father's, an amusing storv-teher and very fond cf hi3 horses. He was called "Colonel," not from any connection with military life, 'but it was a title received in his early boyhood days and it had clung to him as nick names and titles of this sort often do. as ior miss Hazel, sue was an un spoiled cniid ot sixteen, with a merry laugh, bright, brown eyes and hair that "fruzzled" about her face, cheeks where the color came and went like the rose flush in an evening sky. She had no ex traordinary talents and gave promise of none, except the talent of being charm ingly girlish and exceedingly feminine ; in all her tastes. She was at that happy stage of young life just be ginning to have "admirers." Herlear friend, Effie Longstreet, had said at parting the week before on graduat ing day : "Now, dear, at the first symp tom of an engagement you write rue, and i n do the same to you: and be sure and accept your first offer. It always brings good luck in the end, and even if it isn't just what you desire, you know it is al-. ways easy to break an engagement." ""With this sage advice reposing in her mini. Hazel kept her eyes open to the possible advent of a lover, though she felt very shy, and in fact dreaded a pro posal outside of her own dream3. The colonel she did not regard in the light of an admirer. He was older than her father, and had been married twice already, which ought to be enough for any sane man, she thought. Presently they came out of the house and he helped her into the carriace. very love y sne loosed in a pale, ecru dress, and a hat to match with a flaming Duncn or poppies low down on one side "Which way shall we go?" he said, as ne tooK up the reins. "Oh! 1 don't care anywhere so that we can go fast you know I don't like to poke along." This sly maiden well knew that the colonel always liked to drive fast. She gave him; a quick glance and a little laugh. i "Yes, welL have you been out to the park lately? .No? Suppose we so out then; there is plenty of room and good r roaas," he added. "Very well. That will be delightful ana say, wnen tne norses are going real nice won't you let me drive just a little? l think l am a good driver," with an i 1 - oiner upward glance, "and witu you here, colonel, there could be- no possible danger." So they went spinning along unfre quented drives and lovely shady places, The colonel prided himself on the rapid even gait of his favorites. Hazel had her wish to drive eranted.

Then the colonel took them again and turned the horses toward Clifton avenue, Hazel chatting away about her friend Effie, and the lovely time she would have when she Would visit her next month. On the way down the avenue they met Br. Whitebeck, driving slowly, and bent over in his seat, meditatively eying the dashboard, as if profoundly considering some scientific theory or studying the latest "treatment of a case." The mo ment he looked bp and saw them, he grasped his whip. The horse gave a start, which nearly threw the doctor over backward, and went furiously up the street.; "Deuce take that colonel 1" he mut tered under his breath. "What business has he to be driving her out so much?" Then with a grim smile and a long drawn breath, "It's none of my business, though, none whatever, if she rides to the end ol the earth with him." This young man had met Hazel tho summer before while visiting a school friend. He was proud, poor, reserved and ambitious a self-made man but uncomfortable in society. He lacked the ease and polish that many an unworthy, weak man possesses, who is brought up in me naoits oi renned society. He felt this lack keenly overestimated his "barbarism" as he called his unpolished siyie. It was a singular fact that in the sick room he never felt any of these sensa tions, but was self-possessed, calm. masterful. Many ladies who considered Dr. Whitbeck dull and disagreeable on a first introduction, modified their ideas at once on seeing his tenderness and sum with a patient. Hazel first eaw him. bv accident. binding up the broken leg of a dog one day when she was out for a walk in the country.. His goodness to this little stray creature touched her heart, and his maniy lorm and open face beaminsr in telligence and kindness as he arose from his cramped position on the ground im pressed her strongly. She went up to him like a child, without embarrassment or hesitation, and spoke of what he had reen doing. It followed in the conversation that he knew her friends with whom she was stopping, and walked home with her. They were introduced, though, as Hazel slid, "i was entirely superfluous after Aujumn came and earlv winter, still she had received proposals not one. Her young gentlemen friends did not find it easv to make advances with her in spite ot ner frankness and seeming pleasure in their society. The only person who really enjoyed her confidence was the colonel, whom she regarded as a sort of father confessor. However, the fatal dav came at last. She and the colonel had been out for one of their numerous drives. They had been unusually merry, the colonel be having much like a young boy. On bringing her home, he came in ostensi- blv to "get warm." Standing with his back to the fire and his hands folded be hind him, and his feet wide apart, he regarded Hazel in an abstracted way as she threw off her wraps, dropping her cloak on a chair, her . hat on a sofa, dragging a scarf over a stand and leav ing a mitten on the floor. Suddenly bringing his heels together with a click and raising himself up on his toes and letting himself down again, he said : "Come here, child, I want to tell you omething." Hazel came over to where be was standing, and, dropping into a chair,' looked up with expectation in her eyes. The colonel .took a step, wheelea around facing her and said in a deprecating way, "I don't know how to tell you, I am not an eloquent man not much of a man anyway but I I love you, have loved you since you were a wee child. Perhaps I suppose 1 do seem old to you, but I feel younger than I did at twenty. I do bo long to devote the remainder of my life to you, darling, could vou? Do you think you could be my wife?" Hazel, at hrst dumbfounded and feel ing a strong inclination to laugh and cry both, tried m vain to collect ner wits. Her first oaerl And Colonel JJaker, with his queer wavs and bald head standing there with that ridiculous quaver in his voice ! It was too much I ".No, she cried, springing up. "iiow could you ever think I would consent to such a thing?" Then a sense of all his goodness and worth it mingled a feeling of pity at his distress came over her, and clasp- ing the palms of her hands together, she' said, brokenly: "Oh! you are so good. I like you. I am very sorry, but I am sure no I don't think I could make you happy." "My dear child." he said, with sudden courage, taking her clasped hands in his, "is there any one whom you care more for?" - "No, oh, no!" she said, blushing and then suddenly paling. "There "is no one." - "Then let me have an opportunity to win your love. I can't give you up, dear. The thought of you has entered so entirely into my life that I cannot go away without a little hope. You do not hate me, little one?" , "No, no I" she said, in distress, "but "Never mind, don't try yourself or your feelings. to explain Let every thing be just as it always has. Remem ber that I love you and let me come and see you oiten." fressmg two lervent kisses on her hands, he shot out of the door and was off before Hazel had time to turn around. She gathered up her things and went straight to her room. Then she threw herself into a large wicker chair and be gan rocking herself violently and scream ing with laughter. This was succeeded by fats of crying, and again more laugn ter and tears, until exhausted, she dropped asleep in her chair with her head resting on the broad arm. When awakened late in the dav by her cramped position and a raging headache, she was too miserable to think, or offer any re sistence, when her sister insisted on put- jed. It was so unusual for her to be ill. . In the days that followed Hazel was alternately merry and sad, verytalkative or absolutely silent for hours together. She ate little and . seemed restless and nervous in the house, would start when ever the door bell rang, and if it hap pened to be Colonel Baker, she always tried to escape to her room, and was in variably "engaged or "not at home.' She spent much time out ol doofs, tak ing long walks even on severely cold days. Her face grew pinched and lost its color. : . - How long this state of affairs would have continued it is impossible to Bay. But for the intervention of an accident, the colonel's efforts to win her love would probably have never ceased to this dav. Hazel was coming up the street one day from the postoffice. There had been a storm of sleet and snow the day before and the walks were treacherously slippery. She was looking over her letters when suddenly, right on a crossing, her foot slipped. There was a horse coming around the corner. She never knew just what happened; she struck something and felt herself being lilted, while a well known voice said, "My God! I huve killed herl Oh, my darling ! My dar ling!" Then all sensation vanished. Some time later, when consciousness An Island-Ship. The Island of Ascension, in the South Atlantic, belongs to the British admi ralty, and is enrolled in the list of ships in commission under the title of "the tender to II. M. S. Flora." This origina ted in the fact that a vessel of that name was once anchored off the island as a store ship, and part of the stores were kept on shore. Naval discipline is main tained, but a few ladies, wives of the officers e tiled to this barren spot, are allowed to remain here, submitting to naval routine, which includes all lights out by 10 p. M. There is no water, ex cept intermittent collections of rain or dew, insufficient for the needs of the in habitants. Nothing can be cultivated, though a few green things grow on the peak of one of the higher hills and some narrow ravines which concentrate the scanty dews and showers. Sea turtles and terns (locally known a "wide awakes") are the sole edible productions. Cows are brought there, and at first sup ply a small quantity of milk, which is reserved for the hospital. Should there be a surplus, it is sold, a bell being rung to announce the event, but nobody is allowed to buy more than one gilL After a time the milk dries up, and the cow is turned into beef to save her from starving to death. An American returning to England left his steamer and went ashore to look at the island, and came near running against an officer with flaxen whiskers, who suddenly issued . from a building. The officer raised his eyeglass, looked at the stranger with astonishment, and, before the latter could apologize, called out: "Simmons 1" A bearded .seaman, responding "Ay, ay, sir," appeared on the scene. The officer continued:, "Simmons, do you know what this person wants, or who he is I" "No, sir; I can't say, I'm sure, sir." The American began to explain: "Sir, I am a citizen of the United" The naval man interrupted him, and said : "Simmons, do you think he U a stowaway? ' "Can't say, sir, I'm sure," replied the imperturbable Simmons. "Is there a merchant steamer at anthoi here?" "Yes, sir; Cape mail, sir." "Well, Simmons, just go the officer of the watch, and ask him " if he has given permission to any person to board us. And er see what this. person wants." The American, now very angry, began again: "feir, lam' He was again interrupted by the offi cer: "Simmons, lam engaged now, '. cannot see this person. Perhaps you had better take him to tbe officer of the watch." And he wentff before all the terrors of the United States could be launched upon his head ; while the sea man. grinning respectively when his superior's back was turned, conducted the irate Yankee to the officer at the landing place, with whom he had but just come ashore. Sociable fellows, our British cousins, even upon a desert island Science. . The Age or Fishes. It is not generally known that there is hardly any limit to the age of a fish. Professor BaircLof the United States fish commission, is the authority of your cor- resoondent for the statement that there is authentic evidence, to show that carp have attained an age of 200 years. Pro-' fessor Baird also says that there is a tradition that within fifty years a pike was living in Russia whose age dated back to the fifteenth century. "There is nothing," he says,' "to prevent a fish from living almost indefinitely, as it has no period of maturity, but grows with each year of life." There are gold fish in this city that have belonged to one family for over fifty years. They do not appear to be much larger than when they were originally placed in the aquarium, and are every bit as lively as they were when vounar. There are ao many fish stories id circulation that the ordinary reader has almost made up his mind that fish and truth do not go well together. Probably EOino persons will doubt what is said bv Professor Baird about the age a fish can attain. If they do, they are simolv doubtme the best known au thority on .fish. The Russian minister savs that in the royal aquariums in St. Petersburff there are fish to-day that have been known by the records to have been in them 140 vears. Some of them arc, he says, over five times as large as they were when first captured, while others have not grown an inch in length. An attache of the Chinese legation cor roborates this statement, ne says there are sacred fish kept in some of the palaces in China that are even older than anv of those in Russia.

In th hereditary transmission of characteristics there are always two forces ia operation, which we may call dilution and re enforcement. It is a matter of every-dsy observation that a tendency may be strengthened or weak ened by crossing, and it la upon thia fact that breeders of special strains of dogs, cattle or horses rely in great part, the only otner mauence at their dis posal being alternation of food, habita tion or otner environment oi tne young. Exactly the same holds good with the human species. Tor instance, a man with an hereditary leniency to gout may marry a women with the same tendency and their son by his manner of living may develop gout at aa early age. that Is to say, the tendency in th father, reinforced by marriage, and again re inforced by habit, develop la tne son with great rapidity. On the other hand a man with a gouty tendency may mar- Sa woman free from that teodency.and ereby dilate in force. There are. of course, well-Knowo itcia wnica miuiai against this view, but they are generally held, we believe, to be exception to tho rule. In the case of gout, phthisis and some other diseases, the exceptions are probablv more apparent than real; of the reneral truth ef th law thar can be DO question.
