With her dyinbroath she com mended her yodiiiK'si. children to the of their oldest s ster, and exacted from hern promise that she would dc voie herliiia to lliem. The rrirl could hesitate at no demand ui;ule in the List f oble accents of her dyinir mother. She lifted ihe little unconscious babe from the feeble arms that clasped it, and holding it close tohcr bosom, and looking upon the tearful faces of the li tie frroup gathered around that de-.lhbetl, o?ive the required pnmi-e. lit an hour Iter mother hal ceased to bieitiic. and Elsie's life-work had be iiiti. l't it was not until the sad ceremonies of ihe funenl ivtis over, .".nd the liitle family had returned to ihe ilesohiie home, that El-ie fully comprehended all that she had under taken None who have truly loved will fail to comprehend the si niggle that for ihe folio win.-x weeks wont on in Elsie's Hoe.l. It was no slight s-'criiicp lltai was demanded of Elsie ; duty and l.ve. her pfcani e to iitc dead and her vows (o lite livihir, wyti ihe nuiao nisls that caii'e-U'd e"ory in.'-li ot "'round.

He saw n reason in t!m duties f)u; b d undei ttken wliy she should r.oS fulfill Iter vows, run! in be cominu" hi wife divide the burden oi her responsibilities and care. Dot eho thought differently. She felt that she had no ri"ht to allow hi generosity to lead him into such a sac rifice. He was youn"; and life lay bright and lon;r lHJore him. Shou :d she allow the shadow of her ctue lo project across the sunny path ? .Should she seek to lay upon his shoulders the burden that weighed her down and doou ed her to a life of toii? iShe could endure and sacrifice much for the children, so dear to her by ties of blood i sacred Ic.ruey of her dead i-an nts. Em to hiiii they were noth iiitr. save for her sake, and she miht have seen liim orcw weary an. I dis contenied wi'h the untimely cares thai a marriage with her must throw upon him. So Elsie sn.l John Francis Parted, as they feared, forever. When hoi lover found that lo uritmenis nor p ravers could c ban ire her purpose, that she h-d solemnly recorded her vow lo ihe dead, and was fully p epaivd to perform it to ihe uiteniio-t. even to the sact irh o of her dearest hopes .mm most cherished wi-hes, he disappeared from the uihbut hotwi withtxu a f:i!v well loany tijie who hail known him. After tt lime h Setter -piue lo tin parish c!ergm tnto tell that he was safe, an I a! jur to sail ior a i-.re land, and from that hotti. for all I ho v twenty years, no tidings of John I'ran eis had ialieji upon i'blt liayjjr.jiiil's ears. When !ie knew ihat he was zone and would uot return, she care fully yalhcrod ttgeUicr every littl memento of the happy season of her love anl locked them iu the casket he I had iven her, thenceforth to be the shrine of her affections. Then sternly and iincomplaininoly she turned to her life tusk. Year alter year rolled on. Elsie ' spun and wove.aud direeled her maid ens and herlarui laborers, and taught and nursed her brothers and si-icr, nn I in all things slrove to supply to ' them the place of the parents they . had lost. j In time tbe wounds of her heart 1 healed, at last they ceased to bleed at every touch, and learned to find solace i in ihe a 'feet ion of her children, as she called them, while habit made, her du ties light and almost pleasant.' The midniirht hour had already pas-ed when Elsie rose to retire. Iter lonof, lonely viil had made her timid and nervous, and she could scarcely repress a shr el; of alarm, as just at that moment a heavy knock w is heard at the outer door, and rebounded tlu-'uti! the house. lint Elsie's only thoutrht was of a summons to some sick or dyinjr bed. for in tiuil quiet nei;h'-ji"hooil. people were seldom abroad st niirht on less ur-vm errands ; so. smilinjr at he causeless ala; in. and still treiiiblin-r in Fpile of her or bravery, elie umlid the ot the door, ami threw it 1 istemns open. A tall man, wrapped in a loner, dark ridimr cloak, stood upon the threshold. By the li;.rhtof the il:iriu; candle El sie held, she could not distinui.-h his face. fch only saw the strange, eager iook of a pair of very bright eyes, as the si ranger bowed in answer to her salutation. Madam," he said, ' I nm benight ed, as Voii ee, and iu trying to retich the next ilhtge have lost mv wav. I ! am drenched to the .suin.atid my hoive ! is too we:ry to go firther tttroitjii j t!ie.-c miry roads, and seeing a li:itt ! here. I h'-ve vo.itt.'ii'd to rive a iud ; tor :or him ami myself for the remain der of lite night. I assure you that you will find me no ungrateful guest." j Sir," Elsie resumed, simply, " the doors of liayiuoiid farm have never ; been closed to the weary wayfarer. 1 Enter, and a &erviiut wiil care lor your I horse." j The strnntrer bowed again, and ; pas-ed her silently, as she held back the broHl leal oi iheuoor. n it was it that, at the sicht of that t 11 muf ll'd form, caused her heart to be it so wildly? She put up the bar that se cured the door and then precede I her guest to the apartment site had left. She stirred the smouldering embers, and threw on fre-li wood, which caiuht the names that soon leaped cheerily up the broad chimney. Leiv ing the stian er cohering over the blaze, she went and called the garden er to lake charge of the horse that was neighing impatiently at the outer gate. When she came ba'-k she busied her self, silciiily, in preparing refreshment for i lie slrinuer, who siill sat beside l-e-hearlh casting curious ".lances tit her as she moved about. Thrill after thrill shot througa Elsie's tram 3 as she met those bright, s tran ire glances. She had begun lo reel almost fright ened at his singular manlier, when he suddenly addressed her. "Madam," he said, pointing (o fhe row of little shot's, and the overilow uis baket of toys, " I see th.u, 1 jneiy its is this house, it ii not de.-olale lliiiii'in uowers. that brighten so many botites. bioi tii here. You hive lirtie ciiih!:en, boautiful and lovinr. and dodbth'ss a troo.l husband. P aid n me, Madam," he added, observing El sie's emotion, " we who are wanderers up and down the world are wont to notice, with somewhat of jealousy, the tokens of domestic happiness- that are denied to us." He was silent, as if waiting for nn answer, and Elsie, Fotujuering her emotion, answered quietly : "There are children here, lr it not mine. I have neither hu-btnd n r children ;" and a faint sigh struggled up from her heart, s she thought of what might have been. Just then tbe ginlener came stamp ing in at the kitchen door and showed himsell, shaking the water from his garments. Elsie turned to tiie stran gcr : Your meal is prepared," she said ; "when you have partaken, the servant will show you to your room." And bidding her truest good niirht sh went away to her room and lay down upon her bed, but not to sleep. Throuoli the long hours, until the late autumn dawn, she tossed restless Iv upon her couch, thinkiur much of the strange guest, and marveling why his image mingled so continually with her vision of the past. The next morning, when the breik fad hour was pas-ed, the stranger spoke of his departure. "Ilefoie 1 go, mndam." he said. " I ought to .inform you who I am, that yi miy at least know you bav not itestowed your kindness on one un worthy. " For twenty years I have been a wanderer in other Liu Is, a sad, lonely, disappoinied man. Yet I have ever kept one hope bright and vigorous, the hope of return lo my nitive shores and the scenes of my early happiness. "I w s btrn and lived till manhood in the midst of a region much like this iu which your home is sitttaicd. I was an orj' in, but 1 bad a small competence and many friends. 2Iy guard i-n hid a d-iughier whom I love !,und who acknowledged that my ioo was returned. We were betroth ed, by ihe consent of her parents, and our wed.lingd iy was very near, when .trail. e inisfori uues overwhelmed my j Alice.

"Elsie I promised to return wl.cn your task was ended I I am here: ilaveyouno word of welcome alter all these years of taparation 'C lie bad no need to ask, for Elsie lay sobbing iu the arms open to receive her, while the little ones looked on wondoringly ; and 1 he old gardener, to whom the secret had been imuauted the night previous, -tood with clasped hands uttering ejaculations ot thank lulness. "ENie, shall we ever part again ?" "Never," said Elsie, with her quiet simplicity ; "never again until death ;" and she looked up iu his face with the old coniiding gl tue that bad greeted him a score of years before. Very quietly the middle-aged pair settled down at tho old homestead, which was beautified and adorned by the wealth John Francis brought from foreign hind, and dearer far to them than any palace home, with the store o"f memories that people its dim chambers, and all the green demesne which had witnessed their early joys, and their reunion after weary year of separation.

Influence of. Newspapers. A school teacher, who had been eu paged a long time in the profession, and v.itnes.-ed the influence of a news paper upon the minds of families and children writes as follows: I have found it to be a universal fact, with out exception, that scholars of both sexes, and of all ages who have access to newspapers at home, when com pared with those who have not, are : 1. Hotter readers, excellent hi pro nunciation, pii I con equenlly read more understand ingly. 2. They are better spellers, and do- fine words with case and accuracy. 3. They obtain practical kuowledgo of geography in almost half the timo it requires of others, as the newspa pers have made them acquainted with the location of the important place?, of nations, their government and do ings on the glolx. i. They are heltergrniinninans, for" having become so familiar with every variety td' style in the newsp tper,from the common place advertisements to the finished, and classical oration of the statesman. They more readily comprehend the meaning of the text, and consiitntlyanalyze its construction with a oc u racy. 5. They write botlcr com po. it ions, usiii better language, containing nore thought nioio clearly and mora cot ioi-i Iy expressed. -'. Thoe young men who have for' year been readers of newspapers al ways take the lead in debating socie ties exhibiting a more extensive knowledge upon a greater variety of ui ejects, and expressing their views with ri eater liuencv, clearness aul correctness. Exposition' of 1S7G. Windcring through the United States section of this truly wonderful Exhibition, hy peronimeiitcd and over-di.-j layed as t'.ie mo-t of it is, I came upo i an ele 'gant glass case, who e modesty wa3 the more conspicuous from its neigh bors' finery, surmoi.hted by t!:e rnot o Dignis Privmia and disj.Iay ing, in neat packages, the medical prepara tions of the house of Dr. J. (J. Avrii tt Co., Lowell, Mass. I was aware of the world wide re. putation d this eminent firm, for the character and quality of their goods, and remember well their agents iu London, Messrs. Newberry, in &t. Paul's Churchyard. Having a lei sure hour, I determined to examine tine contents of this case, myself, and I was surprised to pee the delicate perfection to which they have brought their household remedies. I was chagrined at the reflection that, while we have t home the most skilful and, pre-eminently, the best physici ans in the world, thcre Yankee doc tors distance us so far in the line of popular medicines for furraly use. Thev have the sharpness to take ad vantage of the higl scientific discov eries among us and mike pills and potions as palatable as they are salu tary. I was told by a leading drug gist in Philadelphia, that Die Ainu's manufactory was the largest in Amer ica, giving employment to hundreds I must go to Lowell ami see it, ou ay wa' home.
