Love at One Glimpse. ,
Some years ago there used to be
pointed out, upon the streets of Glas-
gow, a man whose intellect had. been
unsettled upon a very strange account.
When a youth, he had happened to pass
a lady on a crowded thoroughfare—a
lady whose extreme beauty, though
dimmed by the intervention of a veil,
and seen for but a moment, made an
indelible impression upon his mind.
This lovely vision shot rapidly past
him, and was in an instant lost amidst
the commonplace crowd through which
it moved. He was so confounded by
the tumult of his feelings, that he
could not pursue, or even attempt to
see it again. Yet he never afterwards
forgot it.
With a mind full of distracting
thoughts, and a heart filled alternately
- witgushes of pleasure and of pain, the
man slowly left the spot where he had
remained for some minutes as it were
•thunderstrUck. He soon after, without
being aware of -what he wished, or what
he was doing, found himself again at
the place. He came to the very spot_
where be had stood when the lady pass-
ed, mused for some time about it, went
to a. little distance, and thou came up
as he had come when he had met the
exquisite subject of his reverie—uncon-
sciously deluding himself with the idea
that this might recall her to the spot.
She came not ; he felt disappointed;
He tried again '• still she abstained
from passing. He continued to traverse
-the place till evening, when the street
became deserted. By-and-by, he was
left altogether alone. ,He then saw
that all his fond efforts were in vain.
and he left the' silent, lonely street at
midnight, with a soul as desolate •as
that gloomy terrace.
For weeks afterwards he was never
off the streets. He 'wandered hither
and thither throughout the town, like a
forlorn ghost. In particular, he often
visited the place ,where he had first
seen the object of his abstracted
thoughts, as if 'he considered that he
had a better chance of seeina°her there
than anywhere else. He frequented
every place of public amusement to
which he could purchaBe admission;
and he made a tour of all the churches
iu the town. All was in vain. He
• never again placed his eyes upon that
angelic countenance. She was ever
present to his mental optics, but she
never appeared in a tangible form.
Without her essential presence, all the
world beside was to him a blank—a
wilderness.
Madness. invariably takes possession
of the mind. which broods over much
or over long upon some engrossing idea.
So did it prove with this singular lover.
He grew "innocent," as the people of
this country tenderly phrase it. . His
insanity, however, was little more than
mere abstraction. The course of his
rabid was stopped at a particular point.
After this be made no further progress
in any intellectual, attainments. He
acquired no new ideas. His whole soul
stood still. He was like a clock stopped
at a particular hour, with some things,
too, about him, which, like the motion-
less indices of that machine, pointed
out the date of the interruption. As,
for instance, he ever after wore a
peculiarly long -backed and high -necked
coat, as Well as a neck -cloth of a par-
ticular spot—being the fashion of the
year when he saw the lady. Indeed, he
Was a sort of living memorial of the
dress, gait and manner of a former day.
It was evident that be clung with a de -
wee of fondness to everything which
bore relation to the great incident of his
life. Nor Gould lie endure anything tlaat
tended to cover up or screen from his
recollection that glorious yet melan-
choly circumstance. He had the same
feeling of veueration for that day, that
sircurestance, and. for himself ' as he
then extsted, which catised the chiv-
alrous lover of former times to pre-
serve upon hie lips, as long as he
Could., the imaginary delight which they
bad dirawu from the touch of his mis-
tress's hand.
When I last saw this unfortunate per-
son, he was getting old, and seemed
still more deranged than formerly.

3r• ••••••
Every female whom he met on, the
street, especially if at all good-looking,.
he gazed at with an enquiriug, anxious
expression; and when she had passed,
he usually stood still a few moments,
and mused with his eyes cast upon the
ground. It was remarkable, that he
gazed most anxiously upon women
whose age and figure inoet nearly re-
sembled that of his unknown mistress
at the titue he had seen her, and that
he did not appear to make allowance
for the years which had passed since
his eyes met that -vision. This was
part of his madness. Strange power of
love! Incomprehensible nadchanism of
the human heart !

published in the nevispapers, and she
bas therefore already 'achieved some
prominence. She ha q this summer be-

other evening she started out after suP-
per and put up forty-five bunches of
hay\ud milked the cows before sunset.
Althangh so young, she is very strong
and miaticular, and does any farm work
1,she undertakes in a very expeditious
Manner. The next day after din-
ner she had completed her work around
the house and entered the field again.
She loaded three loads of hay; stowed
them away in the barn, pitched the
fourth load on the rack and'stowed that
away. Sbe then prepared supper for a
part' of four, and after serving it went
to Whituey's corner, in Newbnrg, and
obtained a pair of boots for herself, and
arrived home on her return bef4.e dark.

Some Hints for Getting Rich.
A man, once a farmer, but now doing
the circular work in a large inanufac--
tory (he :turns the grindstone for others
to grind), offers the following sugges-
tions to those who, like himself, could
never make the farm pay:
1. Always leave yOur tools where last
used. The next time you want them
you have only to remember when you
used them last, and go and get them.
In this way the annoyance of lending is
avoided. A man who wants to borrow
a plow is not half as likely to call upon
a neighbor who generally leaves it in
the back fields as one who keeps it in
the barn pure and bright.
2. Never paint your buildings or
farm tools. It is wicked; anybody
knows that it will make them last twice
as long, and that is robbing mechanics
of their business. Let every one live by
his trade.
3. Always plant your smallest pota-
toes. Eat the best and you are sure of
them. If you plant them you run a
risk. Bugs and rot may destroy there.
One potato on the plate is worth two in
the ground when you have to, dig for
them.
4. Do not stable your cattle. It
makes a great deal of extra work and
does no good.' They are dumb brutes.
How do they kuow whether it rains or
snows? Stack some hay (of course you
will wait till your neighbors are
through haying before you lug in, and.
help is cheaper) out in the middle of
the field. It will make au excellent
place to winter sheep and calves. Feed
them on the ground and save bauling
manure. If some of the sheep happen
to die, pull off the wool and feel thank-
ful that you have less to shear during
the heat and worry of summer.
5. Some ahort-sighted people heap up
themanure to let it rot. This is the
height of folly. Let it alone three dr
four years and it will rot itself. If the
yard is so full of manure that the cattle
cannot make through it, get some rails
and fence off a yard on the other side
of the barn'. it will make the land rich.
. If it accunaLates so as to make it diffi-
cult for you to get to the ,barn, move
the barn—the sills are rotten. anyway;
or else sell out and go west.
6. Do not waste money and time try-
ilag to raise fruit trees. It requires an
immense amount of labor to prums and
fight away vermin; and then if they
grow and bear fruit bad boys may ateal
it, or your own children may eat it • and
make them sick; you can save a great
deal of annoyance by not planting any.
The same money will buy enough to-
bacco to last you some time.
7. Do not unite with any agricul-
tural organization or farmers' club; lots
of poor farmers belong to them.
8. Above all do not squander your
money for papers and books. No mat-
ter how much weak-minded people may
talk of the moral influences following
reading; if you can't borrow, go with-
out. No matter how much some peo-
ple claim is to be learned by reading agri-
cultural matter, one-half the writers do
not know what they aro talking
about
—fact. No matter bow much benefit
they derive from the published. ex-
periences of praetical farmers, and the
theories of scientific men and all such
nonsense, just give them to understand
that you know what is what; and let
those take papers who have no mind. of
their own. I know a nice old fanner
who never had a paper in the house un-
til he was fifty years old. His father
left him 200 acres of land, which he
worked as well as he knew how, and
made a comfortable living. One day
the postmaster told him if. he would
take a paper, read. it carefully, p.nd
work according toinstructions,he would
warrant him to clear a thousand dol-
lars the first year. On these conditions
he paid for the paper and read it, work-
ed faithfully, -and at the end of the year
figured up carefully, and found he had
cleared only nine hundred and siXty
dollars. He was offended at the post-
master and now farms it according to
his own ideas.
If these instructions are carefully
followed you will soon find a ready sale
for your farm, others will pay the ex-
pense of selling, and you may hope -to
live in town and do circular work too.

Why he Stopped. the Train.
Saturday at 4 p. m. as the express
train on 1 the Erie road was coming
from Red House to Salamanca the
engineer whistled down .brakes, the
train cane to a stand still and the
passengeis all rushed out to learn the
cause of- the detention, -expecting to
see a mangled corpse or some break -
.age in the machinery- xhich would
compel them to walk to Bradford.
When they reached the platform of
the cars a forlorn -looking individual
in a straw hat the size of an umbrella
loomed up to them. In one band he
carried a fish -pole, in the other a
basket, which contained 75 trout. The
conductor came out, and remarked,
"What in • did you stop my train
for, you mooned -faced old hippod-
rome ?" "Why, you see, cornduc-
tor;" drawled -out the individual, in the
funniest back -woods tones imaginable,
"I've got a whopper here, anal thought
as how some T'er. yer passengers would
like to gaze onto it.," Saying this, the
old man drew out by the tail a monster
of a -trout that must have -weighed. at
least two pounds, and held; it admir-
ingly up by the tail. The suu's rays
flashed out from the beautiful colors
of: crimson and. gold which dotted the
coat of the fish, and whether the sight
was so tempting to. the eyes of. the
hungry passengers . or whether the
ludicrousness of the affair struck them
just then, they burst into roars of laugh-
ter, and even the conductor forgot for a.
moment the bell -punch system, and all
was serenity. again. The venerable Wal-
ton boarded the car S for Salamanca, and
soon the train was thunderiug away the
miles to make up for lost time.—Brad-
ford Era.
•
A Cockney View of It.
-Up to a certain date, says_ the Satur-
day Review, the Scotch had their reli-
gious art, like other Christian people.
In a moment, in the twinkling of an
eye, they destroyed their ancient and
• beautiful cathedrals, their parish
churches, every carved stone, every
painted piece of panel. Where the
early fanes had stoo.d they built barns,
plastered over inside with a dirty yel-
low, lit by square windows, lined with
narrow pews, and absolutely without or-
nament. The very bells seem to be at
least a century later than the Reforma-
tion. Thus, to the careless student, or
even to the incurious native, Scotland
seems almost devoid of church antiqui-
ties. The grim Presbyterian barns
stand on every high place. There are
scattered and naked ruins, as of Mel-
rose, Dryburgh, St. Andrews, Pluscar-
den, and so forth; but the. 'parish
churches are almost all of the kind
wherein Davie Deans could have taken
pleasure. It is only the earnest anti-
quary that finds, here a pointed windo-w,
there an old font, elsewhere a scrap of
fresco, or the grave of a crusader.
