A I'ictty ittid I'atln tu; Story uf Ji'imv Litul and 'jfisi. We lone recently read a beautiful in cident.

Jenny I.ind, hein' the younger, Bang but and was so diMurlied by the fierce, fceomful look ol Gri.si that ulie was at the point of failure when suddenly an inspiration oamc to her. The ace.-uipani.-t was urikinj; the final chords. She aked him to rise and took the vacant seat. II cr fiDfjera wandered over the kiys iu a loving prelude, and then she saw; a little prayer which she had loved as a child. She hadn't sun r for ears. As she sang she was no longer in the presence of tojaliy, hut sinini; to loving Iriends in lier fatlitr land. Softly at lir-t the plain'ive notes floated on the air, swelling loudir and richer every moment. The singer seemed to throw her whole auul into that weird, thrilling, plaintivo "prayer" tiradually the song died away and ended in a sob There was a silence the silence of ad miring wonder. The audience sat spellbound. Jenny liud liftid her sweet eyes to look into tho scornful face that had so disconcert! d her. There was no fierce cxprcaion now; instead a teardrop glistened on the Ioul', black laahes, and after a moment, with t lie impulsiveness ol a child of the tropics, (irisi crossed to Jenny land's aide, placid her arm about her and kissed her, utterly reoiiiies ol t lie audience.

"We want you ! Open this door I" "Never !'' "Then take the consequences." The man sprang out of bed and hur riedly dressed himself. His face Was pale and his hands trembled, but he shut his lips with a determination to sell his life dearly. He heard footsteps moving in the hall, and pr senlly his door was burat Iroui its hingea and a doz a men butt into the room. They found him standing with a revolver in each hand and tho light of tattle in his eyes. "You may hang me," he said in a low tei.se voice, "but 1- ufyou will go into the ether wurld hi fore me. 'Who said anyihing about hanging.?" inquired a voice. "But you have come for that Twelve years ago in this town 1 killed four men. u have recognized me aud have eon e for revenge." "Not much, stranger. We don't know anything about the four men and don't want to. You live in Missouri, don't you : "I do."

Not changed but glorified: Oh, beauteous language For those who weep, Mourning the loss of Borne dear face departed. Fallen asleep; Hushed into silence, never more to comfort The hearts of men, (lone, like sunshine of another country, lieyond our ken. Oh! dearest dead, we saw thy white soul shining Behind the face, Bright with the beauty anil celestial glory Of an immortal grace. What wonder that we stumble' faint and weeping. And sick with fears, Since thou hast left us all alone with sorrow And blind with tears 'i Can it be possible, no words shall welcome Our coming feet ? How will it look, that face we have cherished AVlten next we meet? Will it be changed, so glorified and saintly, That wo shall not know it? Will there be nothing that will say "I love thee, And I have not forgot ?" Oh! faithful heart, the same loved face transfigured Shall meet thee there, Less siitl. less wistful, in immortal beauty Divinely fair, The mortal veil, washed pure with luanv weepings, Is rent away. And the great soul that sat within its power Hath found the day. In the clear morning of that other country, In l'aratlise, With the same face that we loved and cherished Soon shall arise! Let us be patient, we who mourn with weeping, Some vanished face, The Lord hits taken but to add more beauty Anil a.tlivine grace. And we shall find once more beyond earth's sorrows, Beyond these skies, In the fair city of the "sure foundations," Those heavenly eyes, With the same welconio shining through their sweet ness; That meet us here; Eyes, from whose beauty God has banished weeping And wiped away the tear. Think of us, dearest one, while o'er life's waters, We seek the land, Missing thy voice, thy touch, and the true helping Of thy pure hand, Till, through the storm and tempest, safely anchored Just on the other side, We find thy dear face looking through death's shadows, Not changed, but glorified. LOVE AMONG- SAYA&ES. NONE BUT THE BRAVE DESERVE THE FAIR." Ability to Stand Torture a Test of Masculine Devotion. Auiouj; the Arabs of upper KftJ'p' 'he youth wtio proposeato a itirl must submit to a whipping at the hands of all her male relatives, and, sajs a dry narrator, "if ho wishes to be considered worth hav ing he must recoive tho chastisement, which ia aoruelimca exceedingly severe, with an expression of enjoytnent." Not inlreiUently it is the maiden lur- self who imposes tho tost. The fakalava jjir'a of Madagascar make their lovers stand at a short distance from a clever spear thrower aodcalch between the arm and side every weapon flun at them. If the youth "displays fear or fails to catch the spear, he is iorioininii usly r.jectid, but il there be no flinchin; aud lliesp"au are caught he ia at once proclaimed an accepted lover." Wcrse than this is the tiial enfored upon their suitors by the 1oiil'o1owi e (jirls. When in d u'. as to the respic live merits of two livals. the youn lady fastens a sharply pointed knife to eaih elbow; then, seating herself between bir lovers, she drives the blades slowly into their thighs, and the hero who takes the greatest length of steel without a murmur wins the bride. Major Mitchell in bis ''Expedition Into the Interior of Eastern Australia" says of the natives on the liver l'arling that all their ideas of fighting arc associa ted with the possession of gins or wives and that after a battle the wives "do not always follow their fugitive husbands from the field, but fniUently (jo oer, aa a matter of course, to the victors." "None but the brave deervn the fair" is a rnani u well understood of most barbaric races. Chambers' Journal.
