Satan's March.
BY M. G.
Hurrah for tramp through the world so wide!

But away ! away ! while yet 1 may,
Ere I find I've lost the light of day.

And still cries with a careless song ;
And stifle the thought:: that in me rise
AT en I hear.the beggar's pitiful cries,

As
tie pauses to count his earnings scant,
And laugh a merry, jovial laugh,
its I watch him fume at my- heartless chaff.
f'II bury the innocent man in crime;
A d mock at the skeleton hand of Tine;
And on, forever on I'll go,
Till I've thronged the regions of sin below_
none will I heed,
Nothing. will hinder,

Till I've filled the land with my poison seed,
For under the banner of Satan bold

And plunder the rich when they're out of sight,
An I leave behind my guilty load,
Ere I join the throng on the sinner's road.
ill sink the ship as she rides the wave,
And sing o'er the noble sailor's grat'e,
And choke the prayer he fain would breathe,
And smother his words before I leave.
I'll join the postman on his beat,
And turn his steps to a quiet street,
And there IV stifle his angry shout
As I turn the letters inside out.
FIT scratch from some their tone of grace ;
And stuff them each in a different case ;
And some will wonder and many weep,
As the puzzles their anxious hopes will greet.
When the days are dun and the wind is bleak,
And my limbs from the cold are stiff and weak,
I'll drop a spark on a mansion fair
And thaw my bones as I mount the stair.

And bind the brave as they try in vain
To lift the motionless MASS froni the ground,
And rescue the wounded scattered round.
II join the gossiping women's band,
And stir their schemes with a crafty hand,
And rousing their tury as high as the lark,
vanish away in.the mist and dark.
I'll enter unseen the happy home,
And drop on the shelf contention' S bone,
Then gleefully leave when I see they've found
And are sweeping, my friendly gift around.
I'll robe myself as a traveler's guide
And up through the rugged mountain side,
With a fiendish laugh, and close behind
I'll follow the traveler old and blind,
And clasping his trustful hand in mine,
With feverish strength which gives no sign.
guide his helpless stumbling feet
Cp through the paths untrod and steep,
And swiftly adown the farther side
i'li watch his feet unhindered slide.
And only my laugh with its mocking ring,
Too late shall a note of warning bring,
1'll draw from the trusting maiden's side
A heart with its love long true and tried,
And low at her feet like a heap of dust
['11 shatter the idols of faith and trust.
And out from the world and its pa.ssing throng
I must choose me subjects hale and strong;
Those who will help me hand id hand
To wave my flag over every land.
And far and near to crown with shame,
And hurl those down from the heights of fa.me
Ot
were just about to ascend the shaft, and
the man. at the pit head discovered that
somethirkg had gone wrong. There
were sixty-three men and boys at work,
of 'whom thirty-eight escaped to 'a
neighboring pit, while twenty-five, who
were on the opposite side of the ,torrent
remained.-- These ran through a portion
of the workings as yet free from the
flood, but found their escape cut off,
turn where they would, and exhaustion
took the place of despair. At last they
awaited their fate in a level com-
municating with another pit, measuring
only five feet broad by five feet high..
The shaft was nearly filled with water,
and a volume of water was rushing
down upon them; but here they waited
two mortal hours, until seeing no chance
-of the flood diminishing sci as to give
hope of escape, seven of them dashed
under the water and through:, the hole
whence it carne, leaving their' compan-
ions in the belief that they were lost.
They were, however, mercifully saved,
reaching the shaft where anxious
friends were waiting thin, after bat-
tling in the dark with" the seething
waters. But what of the eighteen that
remained ? One by one twelve of them
adventured their lives as their comrades
had done—braved the waters and the
dark hole, and were similarly rescued.
ll
But four men vid two boys were still
left behind. Three more hours passed,
while friends above were vainly- signal-
ing and calling to then -k to them to fol-
low their comrades' example. They
were the more hopeless because they
believed their mates had perished, and
that such signals as reached them from
the roof were warnings W remain where
they were. Their lamps were kept
burning with difficulty.
" Three more hours passed. and the
rescuing party saw that something must
be done to draw them from their living
grave. Some one must force a passage
through the water, but who ?
"'1 will go if some one will' push me
through, for the current is so strong,'
volunteered our young Irish hero, James
Nolans; and a mate named Smellie put
his feet against his back, and he forced
himself through the water. .11e reached
his imprisoned comrades, spoke -to them
cheerfully, bade them follow him, and,
placing the boy Kerr, aged thirteen, on
his back, dashed back again. I.. Saved !
All but one ! Where was 'the lad

waters. He found the boy in the dark,
alone, abandoned to death. Eh .! and
may God bless you 1' were the words
• breathed into his ear as he took him also
on his back, and bore him safely through
the torrent. It was eleven o'clock at
night when this daring deed was ac-
complished', and cheers of welcome
greeted our, collier hero: The' Quiver's'
first silver medal has been awarded to
brave James Nolans. Will it not look

before a huge log fire, piled high up the
capacious chimney, and which, by its
bright and strong blaze, rendered any
other light useless. Before the fire too
