His ladder was up in the dome ready for "the leap for lire," "and the ieople Ikegan to clamour to have 'it done." 1 finally agreed to do it. The feat consists, after the terformanee of a variety of tricks on the ladder, in swingiug yourself into motion and jumping to a taut rojie, running from a ceiling at an incline to the wtngs. The jump was a long one, anl the house was very quiet wheu Ijliegan to swiug preparatory to taking the leap.; I threw myself ft the rojie, aiid when I was in midlair, I Raw it- was no go and that I wsU rtohe.

I did fall just that way forty feet on a wooden stsige. My arm was driven into my side and a rib was broken. The sirm was shatter ed ami I was laid up for many - - .... months. - While I was gbidg" down in ah instant 1 saw over again, as vivid as life, every fall that I .ever wit nessed. They came up in my mind, one right after; another, like suc c.essive flashes of lightning, and I seemed to be experiencing all of them in my own! person. But worse, than every thingjelse a great ileal worse than the sljjock of arriv ing, was the terrible sliriek of agony that went up from the audience. It was like oneJ heartbreking wail, of agony.

The Wreck of the Hesiierns' was written the uigbt after a violent storm hail occurred, and as the poet sat smok ing his pipe the Hesems came sail ing into his mind.

V Longfellow's shorter poems is 'Excel sior.' That one word hapjieiied to catch his eye one autumn eve in 1841 on a torn piece of newspajier, and straightway his imagination took fire at it. Taking up a piece of pajier, which happened to lie the back of a letter received that day from Charles Sumner, he crowded it with verses As first writtcti down 'Excelsior' dif fers from the jierfected and publish ed version, but it shows a rush and glow worthy of its author. The story of 'Evangeline' was first suggested to Hawthorne by a friend who wish, ed him to found a romance on it. Hawthorne did not quite coincide with the idea, and .lie handed it over to Longfellow, who saw in.it all the elemeits of a deep ami tender idyl." All his labors were congenial. He had good health, cbmieteiice, troops of friends and the foretaste of univer sal fame. His home, the historic headquarters of General Washing ton, was all hat a man of taste or a warm-hearted parent and -husband could desire. But to this paradise came-one terrible affliction in July, 1861. Mrs, Longfellow, while seated at the library table amusing two o' her children, accidentally touched a piece of lighted pajier with her dress, which was immediately in flames. Mr. Longfellow sprang to her rescue but she was so badly burned that she died the next day. The poet visibly aged under this grievous stroke. Of this grief Mr. R. H. Stoddard, in 'Poets and their Homes,' writes: "He lias known poignant sorrow Death has entered his home aud ta ken from it his dearest. That this, a sorrow ever abiding, is one from which, in a sense, he will never re cover, the years have proved. His melancholy is but dimly seen, like a smoke curling upward from a blazing fire. Yet it is present always, veil ing his cheerfulness and saddening uis smiles." i "I never heard him make but one allusion to the grept grief of his life," said ail intimate friend. "We were shaking of Schiller's line jsieiii, 'The Ring of Polycrates.' He said: 'It "Was just so with me. I was too hap py. I might fancy t he gods envied if I could fancy heat lien gods." The old 'Craigie House,' which was. Mr. Longfellow's home in Cambridge, was rich in associations. It. was. built midway in the last century by a gentleman of family antl distinction, Colonel John Vassal, whose grave stone in Cambridge liears uki, it a sculptured goblet and a sun. After the Revolutionary war the house was sold to one Thomas Tracy, who ap Iears to have been a sort of Ameri can Vathek, emulating as far as jtos sible in an uncongenial clime the magnificent doings of the Eastern Prince.' With the passing of his wealth, clouds gathered about the old house. We hear of it no more until it came into the hands of the last owner save one, Andrew Craigie. The expenses it entailed ruined him. Necessity obliged him to part with all save eight of the 200 acres origi nally included in the estate, ami after his death Mrs. Craigie was, forced to let lodging to the youth of Harvard pigmies all to her, tligh to us such intellectual giants as Everett, Wor cester, Sparks antl Longfellow were among tiiem. tn tne reduced gen tle-woman some curious torie's are WKl. uu one occasion her young jxtet lodger, entering her-, parlor in the morning, found her sitting by the jijiea window, through which innu merable canker-worms had -'crawled front the trees they were devouring onbmTeXhey had. fastened them selves to Iier dress, and hung in little writui festoons from tlie white turban on her head. Her visitor surprised and shock etl, asked - if she could do uothiug to destroy the worms. Raising her eyes from- the book she, sat calmly reading, like .In difference on a monument, she said, in tones of solemn rebuke: "Young man, have not our fellow -worms as good a right to live as wer an an swer which throws 'Uncle Toby's' bo, little fly,' quite in the shade. In 1843 the house wa liought by Mr Longfellow, and from that time, with tender love and reverent care, he has adorned and perfected it. The boose ia set back from the road lie hind a lilac hedge, blossoming in spring with purple aud white. On either gide are broad verandas, from look across to tlie Charles river and the blue hilbj of Milton Put . i . in ue longer you cau secure a knh! supply of nubbins. I . prefer thick sowing, as it shades the ground more completely, and weeds have no 'chancei at all to grow ; hence there is no iieed at all of cultivating. Cut' as sooit as it is all tasseted out well, lay in biintlles until thoroughly cured, and then shock up or haul to your barn. If you have never tried it,you will be astonished at the quantity of fishier you can raise on a small patch of ground. Besides getting a -good;.. supply of fishier chetiply, fanners will find this crop a great help during Angust. When pastures liegin to fail anil dry up, and the supply of green finnl gets short, you j can keep ; your stock growing and ..improving 'all the time by cutting aiid' feeding from j our patch of fodder. We all know that very often stock looses considerably during the the. very hot days in August, when the grass in the pas tures'' gets short, anil that, too, when it i.j most desirable to . keep them growing. A: gtssl supply of green corn grown in this way? will lie of great ls'itetit at this time. It takes but little ground ami little trouble to give it a trial, ami we know from exiierience that tried once, you will never lie without' your natch of fishier afterwards. - Information from nearly (0 conii ties of Iowji shows that.. seeding has lieen completed iil many parts Made the Girls Mail An Iowa editor has raised a hornet's nest about his ears and will pmba. bly have to leave the State, all .on aceouut of an unfortunate accident II ART! oin, Afiil IS.
