DKIFTED OUT TO SEA.
Tom Green.
Two little ones grown tired of play,
Roamed by the sea, one summer day,
Watching the greuii waves come aud go,
Prattling aa children will, you know,
Of dolls and marbles,kite3 and strings
Sometime hinting at graver things.
At last they spied within their reach
An old boat cast upon tlie beach.
Helter-skelter with merry din,
Over its side they clambered in—
Ben, with his tangled, nnt brown hair,
Bess, with her sweet face, flushed and iair,
Rolling in from the briny deep, '
Nearer, nearer the great waves creep,
Higher, higher npon the sands,
Grasping the boatin boisterous glee,
Tossing it up an dont to sea.
The sun went down'mid clouds of gold)
Night coines, with footsteps damp and cold;
Day dawned, the hours crept slowly by;
And now across the suuny sky, j
A black cloud stretches faraway,
And shuts the golden gates of day.
A storm comes on, with flash and roar
While all the sky is shrouded o'er;
The great waves rolling from the west,
Bring night and darkness on their breast,
ft till floats the boat through driving storm
Protected by God's powerful arm.
The home bound vessel, 8eabird lies
In ready trim, twist sea and skies,
Her Captain paces restless now.
A troubled look upon his brow,
While all his nerves with terror thrill—
The shadow of some coming ill.
The mate comes up to where he stands,
And grasps his arm with eager hands;
"A boat has just swept past," said he,
"Bearing two children ont to sea. ~
Tis dangerous now to put about,
Yet they cannot be saved without.''
"Nought but their safety will suffice;
They must be saved!" the Captain cries.
"By every thought that's just and right,
Bv lips I hoped to kiss to-night.
IH peril vessel, life and men,
And God will not forsake me then."
With anxious faces one and all.
Each man responded to the call;
And when, at last, through driving storm,
They lifted np each little form,
The Captain started, with a groan.
"My God! he cried, "they are my own !"

A beautiful mirage was seen in Acco-
mac Couuty, Va., a few mornings ago,
The sun rose behind a thick bank ot fog,
which soou grew thinner until a few pale
ruys shot np above. In a siuglc minute
a wonderful transformatiou bad taken
place. Apparently uot a quarter of a
mile away lay the land of Ohitico-
teague, with its tall white: tower, its trees
its dwellings and shrubbery. A little
boy wa9 seen driving a flock of sheep
along the slope, and even a little girl in
the door of the lighthouse keeper's home
fondling a doll. In another minute a
second fog bank rose and shut out the
vision. The island was distant thirty
miles.
A fire the other night swopt away the
costly observatory of Mr. Jay Gould, at
his residence at Irvmgton-ou-the Hudson.
The'building cost the neat sum of $150-
000, aud it contained, Jwheu tlie fire oc
enrred, over $40,000 worth of rare and
beautiful specimens of plants, ferns, palms
etc. Some idea may be had of the loss
from the following extract of the [New
York World's account of the fire:
Since July Mr. Gould had leceiyed from
Linden, the florist ot Ghent, Belgium, a
collection for which he paid $20,000- It
included palms from the most remote
points to which Linden's agents had pen
etrated in search of botanical enriosities
and rarities. Of palms alone there were
in the conservatory 280 varieties, the
rarest of which was a specimen from the
East Indies, standing ten feet high, with
three leaves, each of which was eight
feet in length and three feet in width.
The tree fern included forty varieties im-
ported from Venezuela, Madagascar,
New Guinea, and other tropical countries:
The trunks of some of these ran up to a
lieigth of fifteen feet before the? threw
out their bunch-like heads of foliage. A
consignment of palms and tree ferns from
Don Pedro, the Emperor of Brazil, was
alsu among the curiosities destroyed. Oue
of these ferns was valued at $2000, and
quite a.number of theni at $800 aud $1200
apiece. The bush ferns, which are a
dwarf species of the tree terns, were also
largely represented in the collection, be-
sides 7000 rare plants, 6000 geraniums,
20,000 bedding plants and a host of na-
tives. Besides all this there were the
rarest roses, crotons, maradas, draee-
nas, azaleas, philodendrons and anthhri-
uin andreaus wore large and varied. A
single plant of the last variety cost 500
raucs. Its flower was a scarlet red, and
the variety itself is exceedingly rare. 111
tie pink house were thirty-five varieties
•f winter-blooming carnaiions. These are
•ample8 of the extent and variety of Mr1.
Gould's collection, a complete catalogue
ot which would comprise a list of at least
40,000 names. Mr. Gould took a great
interest in his collections, and seldom neg-
lected to visit the conservatory 011 his
way to the city and immediately upon
his return to his home in the afternoon.

It is said that it costs no more to

great age. She came to this cbntry thii«
ty years ago. Up to the hour of her death?
she retained her faculties in a remarka-
ble degree, , She had been ill only two
months, anc this was her first Sickness.
