From the Wonders of Dreamland to the
Peacefulness of a Better One.
It was on a train coming out of Flor-
ida, says the Titrougla Mal- The old.
man coughed terribly, and all the pas -
sen ers pitied him.
"I have been down in Florida trying
to get over this hemorrhage,'' he said
between fits of coughing, ('and 1, was
told by the doctors that I would soon
be better ando home cured. lam go-
ing home, brit will never ---" Hare
he began coughing again and it was
seise al minutes before he could go on
speaking. "I will never be well again.
I came down here on these warm
shores,thinking mayb one day I would
be young and rong again, but alas! -'I
am grievously disappointed. No, ,she
is not my wife," he continued, as the
passengers looked inquiringly at the
pretty young woman by his side. "She
is my grand -daughter. My wife, God
bless her, is up yonder," pointing to-
ward the brazen sky.
"Oh, dear! This young woman is all
there is of my once large family. and
she is already stricken with consump-
tion. We came down here together
last fall, and she is better; butl am go-
ing back. to Lynn to die. while she is !
only temporarily benefitted. Oh, yes! 1
Florida is a good place for eonsunlp-
Lives to come to—to die." Then ho }
coughed again till his face was livid,
and' half the passenger, were coughing
fro very sympathy. The young lady
drew is white old. head down on her
bosom, and dallied with his thin locks,
and pressed his flushed cheeks with her
soft lingers until he slept. .all were
glad to see him at ease, and a hundred
willing Hearts went out to her as two
hundred willing hands were proffered
for assistance in subdued whispers.
"He is sleeping so sweetly," shesaid,
"and see those smiles playing on his
lips. Ali, yes! He is dreaming of home
and youth. He often does so when he
is so worn that he sleeps. What did he
say? Oh, yes! He is a boy again, and
in fancy he is roaming through the
green fields hand in hand with mydead
grandmother. Listens"
"Stella! Stella! Ain't the world
beautiful to -day!"
"Stella was my grandmother," the
girl said, "and he has gone back in his
happy dreams to the days when he
roamed with her on the fine New Eng-
land hills. Alt, yes! He is back hi h18
old Massachusetts home, a boy again."
The old man moved quickly, and his
arms twitched nervously, until hishand
wandered above his head and rested on
the glorious hair of his granddaughter.
" tella, your hair is so cool and so
thick and grand like the hair of angels.
Oh! you have gone again. Comeback,
darling; and let me tell you how I love
you!"
The sluggish breeze came in the open
window and playedamongher rich hair
and the thin and frosty locks that clus-
tered round his brow. The whistle
mournfully called a station as if itwere
the wail of a. dying woman, and the
tired eyes opened.
Where are we?" he asked.
"This is Callahan," said the girl,
soothingly,
"Not out of Florida yet? Why, I
thou& we were back at Lynn already,
and—Oh! Mary, I had such a pleasant
dream! I am glad I saw the old home-
stead in a dream, for I am dying, and
my poor old eyes will never rest on
home again until I come to watch over
you with a covey of angels. I saw your
grandma, Mary, and I dreamed.1 twin-
ed my fingers in her hair, as I did be-
foret"ou and your mother were born."
The train moved. on, and the old man
coughed ever and anon, and finally
spoke again:
"Mary, I am dying. I do not want
to die here in Florida. Oh! how I would
like to see the steeples and chimney
tops of Lynn --over the tree -tops. But
you will take the back there and bury
me in the old churchyard, Mary; and
now, when we are out of Florida, I am
ready to die." The tears trickled down
the cheeks of the girl and bedewed his
hair; he twined his fingers in her flow?
ing locks and was still until the whistle
sounded and the brakeman came to the
door and said, so faintly scarce any-
body' could hear it:
"Jessup. Change cars for Macon."
"Then we are in Georgia?" the old
man cried. "Now let me die," and as
the train slowed up the girl's tears
flowed faster, for there was a gasp, and
the old man had changed cars for
heaven, and his train glided over the
golden rails and sandal -wood ties so
swiftly and noiselessly that before we
were again on our way he was safely
home. '

Matrimony in Her Majesty's Army.
The soldiers are great beaux. The
hearts of female Haligonians, high and
low, beat faster in the presence of these
uniformed gallants. Her Majesty for-
bids common soldiers to marry without
a permit from their superiors. There
are nine laundresses to each company,
and they are always soldiers' wives,
mothers, or daughters. Fifteen extra
wives are allowed to a division. The
nnhaltpy martial Romeo is obliged to.
put his name on a list and wait his turn
tisk leave to marry. He may have act-
ed his part to a dozen Juliets before the
time comes when his sweetheart can be
appointed a•regimental washerwoman.,
Special privileges in the way of marry-
ing are :allowed to old soldiers and to
those who have distinguished them-
selves by bravery. Many of the :sold-
iers marry without permission. The
officer's discipline the unlicensed bride
