THURSDAY, MARCH 11, The Absent T-Mght. BY EDW1BD S. CHXAXSB. Whllo wa meat at this Banquet encircled by mirth And good living ana arinklns; ths best f the aartb ; While arouad goes thest and repartee's t-rigst uptrK. TUh tme stories to light brought that lately ere dark ; While we value the prsent, the comrades now here And e hope that for dacades they yet will ap pear To assUt at oar Kreetlnsr, in bodily sijfht. Let's not fail to remainder the absent tt-nlght. Hw they charged to the front waen the danger was there. How they cheered up the ones that would seme times despair ; In the bivohac, or march, how ucelaa af taind. And li feasting or hunery how social and kind Yt't.-e those lovets cf fiecdattn that rode by our side To pnt don a tbs armies tl.at for four years Bad tried O'er ear couutry to keep yet the elave-ownera migiit Those brave eses that we miss frova evir r.aion to-ircut. When tke pickets were drove hew they rallied How ;iiey fought at the out-post thoujls lalls fell like rain ; Or they oioved qi.iokly forward in battle arrav. Where the huudrsds were Hying away from the I ray ; Or they stood Ciaa as breastwcrlcs where many l:.v low. With thtir rifle shots riiging out death to the ice. Ah. they ever were ready for seout or for CKht. iho3i brave ones away frora ur meeting to niiht. now they fought ea the flank for the coveted road ; How they dashed dowu the beifcht at the eue my ford ; How tiiey crossed o'er tlte stream, with the ni-.i.t ser a taiup. Where tiiey captured l!ie eatttry. the men and the camp. Where the t.r.tvet ware aeeded, they ehrar.k iiit tlie post. But tiiey wdiiuily ventured wliere danger w;.s most. We way .11 know their names, but will not re cite Them here at ttis banquet the loved abscut to-niht. And when old Father Time in the years. comes around.

BT JIADGK CARROLU "A pls.nsant surprise, Vincent ; it's pirl this time." After the advent of six boys, ft d.s.ujrliter was certainly no unwelcome jfuest. There came, however, the per plexity of naming her. Anrtv-tral honors in the shape of suohcoononicii? as Kiehanl, JTenry, William, Thomas, El v?ard, Frederick, were handed down from generation to generation q-.iite as a matter of course, and considered ood enough for boys. But for a woman-child, for this soft peirl Rir.on half a dozen diamonds in the rouJ,, son:etlino; iu-je3tiv of sweetiiess. dc sirub!ene?;.s, must surely Ikj discoreied and appropriateel. The mother al ternabtHi beiween the cardinal virtues and the floral kingdom. Tho father never got beyond the keynote Dr. Tetcr struck when he announced : "A pleasant surprise, Vincent." At length he spoke. "Let us call her Pleasant," he eaid. And Pleasant it was. 8he grew up in the valley where she was bom, a ehy, thoughtful child, with eyes that mirrored the blue and gray and the wood-dove's breast, with nuir that caught its lights and shad ows under sua swept willows beside her native streams, and. the counte nance and manner of one possessed of some secret, which makes life nobler and sweeter, not only for the holder of it, but for all who come within its influence. Fields of corn and grain interlaced with branches, and threaded with run ning waters, made up that nest of a valley where the Vincents lived. Brooded over by summer 6un or swathed in wimry snows, it was a lovely snot, where people, liveel, loved and died in an old-fashioned way that Msa yet new to them every one. When a very little girl, Pleasant fancied that somewhere along tlioso. mountain-ranges shutting her i,.tood a ponderous- oak-n gate, leaf-embowered, end opening on grape-vine hiiiires into that outside world, con cerning whoKe inhabitants she hardly dansl venture a guess, liven in early girlhood she found it diilicult to ban ish thi fancy, ami dreamed of a time when s'.e would soe thein unclose, and would leave her hand's breadth of earth aud fcky, and go forth in the greatuui verfce beyond. The day came soon enough when the heavv gates opened for our little maid. Not that she heard them creaking ou the' frozen hinges, toppling the ici cles and scaring the snow-bird in the tranche. Oh, no, but for all that she got behind the while mountain wall, traveled ix.ilc6 and miles, saw stran-e places and ieoples,aud I may as well njeutiou it here and now was glad enough to get back again. -- Ardilla Newbre, eldest daughter of Mrs. Vincent's only sister, had left her city home two years previous for a visit to the valley. She waa home sick before she arrived, anfl would not stay long enough to unpack hertruak. She found time, however, to fall in love -wiLh Plea.s.mt. Ever since that visit, she and her mother had bfu tending after the dear girl. Finally, yielding to their persuasions, arid in fluenced by the fact f ltichard' go ing that way after hi wife's mother, 7Ir. and lira, Vincent consented to lt Ler go, "She and I are the name age," re marked Ardilla to a gentleman u-utler twenty, ostensibly studying law with her father, "Twin cousins, mi savs. Pleasant waa sixteen the tenth of No vember, so was I. But she's juite a child yet; and I, oh dear, what with leasona and I'tArties., I begin to feel iuite old. Pa think we look alike. o you?"

Pleasant Vincent could not hare ar rived at a gayer season. Mimic gTores adorned unlikelyplaces; wreaths ot evergreen festooned the streets ; holly-berries flashed like jewels ha the un; relvty mosses cushioned steps and pavement. Tho great city was sounding ita note of preparation for Christmas, and every heart responded after its own fashion, even the hearts of thoe who were strangers to the CHrin-child's inission.w hound neither pirt nor lot with the people whom the Father promised should le Hi. - The year. previous, Mr. Newbre had speculated and iost heavily. Pleasant learning this merely through vague hinta and complainings, found herself enable to reconcile their style of liv ing with these fact until it occurred to her that what she paw with the exception of provision must have been purchased before thir misfor tunes. 'I beg you, Aunt Ardilla, not to make any difference for me," the en treated, observing their groaning table. I'm used only to the piiineat sort of living; if you set me down to bread and milk, 1 shall be thankful." "Biewi tlie childl" exclaimed Mrs. Newbre. "Just hear her! Why, my let, if your undo should see us "excr cTsing stricter ecoaoniy, he'd low Lis fnse:i." Pleasant Vincent did not understand it al! ; still, there were so many things she did understand and enjov, she wi lier innocent heart to rest. Nay, even sung it to sleep with the crculie-soiig of a 'icar secret over which her old fashioned hair-trunk kept watch and ward. Anticipating her visit, this little country girl, all the sweet spring.sum mer and autumnal wenther, gathered and pressed field and forest treasures for these relatives, only oao of whom she had ever seen. "I feel too mean," she overheard Au gusta say. "I cau't give anything outside the family; and as for what I've got for you folks, if we weren't all poverty-stricken together, I'd be ashamed to bring them out" Plea saul's heart gave a bound as she thought of the delicate fern, plumy grain. j;xos an 1 all the bright things hidden away ia her trunk. Iireatwa herdisappoiutcient when.under prom ise cf secrecy, Ardilla, Augusta, and even little Sebastian, rcvaled to her their several purchases. "Thi3 is ma's," aaid Ardilla, hold ing up what seemed to Pleasant's un sophisticated eyes a perfectly regal breakfast-cap. "We can't any of us make these sort of things, and I assure you it costs to buy tlicin. 4,We are confined to useful presents this year," pouted Augusta; "and I hate them. This is na'i' exhibiting an elegant cigar-holder. "I was not able to see any special use in breakfast-caps and cigar-holders," said Pleasant, writing to her mother; "but being accustomed to thee things, they becoms necessities I suppose." After this experience, Pleasant re called, with something like a pang, the simple gifts she had brought- They wo.ild confer no pleasure, she reflect ed, arul, t fter kiting them they teem ed e i a part of tlie dear old home resolved to wait her opportunity and burn them at the kitchen fire, or in the heaters below stairs. "In the ten days that have passed since my arrival, I have not enjoyed anything so much as a visit to Miss Naomi," wrote Pleasant. "That'-s say ing a great de:il, mother niiiw.for your li , tie girl is having a delightful time. Our call on this lady was so different from everything c'.sr ,and seemed sonic how so like a bit of home-lite, it took me by the heart, as my dear father say 8." Miss Naomi was formerly a nursery governess iu Mr. Newbre's family, arul had so engaged the affections of the children, that long after they got be yontl . her humble attainments, and she had given place to one better Qual ified to instruct, the kept her hold on -their hearts. Somehow she afterward tailed in obtaining similar position, and had gone throagh very bitter ex periences in the effort to earn her own living, as well as assist a feeble sister with tour children and a drunken hus band. At length came the severest trial of all. Through some careless ness at the place where she worked, Miss Naomi met with an accident which deprived Iter of the use of h-r lower limb?. She was now confined to her room in the fourth story of a rickety old tenement, where, with a little spasmodic sort of assistance, she still managed to live, and to help her sister do tlie same. "Her manner was so like yours when she opened her Bible, 1 could have hugged her." So ran Pleasant' letter, concluding her account of their visit "The girls say sue always reads some thing that fits right into the conver sation. They tell we s Sic has religious ervico Lu her room every morning be tween six and seven." " We helped furnish it," said Ardil la, referring to this, same little room un tuir way Lome. "But there's con siderable needed to make the dear wo uutii comfortable." "I'd like to make the landlord get that le-aky roof fixed," said Augusta. "Yea, and there's other tilings," re plied Ardilla. "he ought to have a curtain for that putthid-up window. It soeius to ma I'd go crazy with that LI auk wall staring ine iu the face'. We wuite-i to get mice hade, a shoulder shawl aud several oilier articles for her this Christmas; but, dear, oh me, wo can't sSbrd anything. We'll have to leave Mis Naomi out in the cold this year, litre's Moucil's girls, come in and get a st-ew, I'm really chilly." Our little country girl was no dunce not to ke able to put two and two to gether. Not to see, if she had thought over the reatter.that the money wastetl between these girls would have gone far toward supplying that poor wo man's wants, had it been appropriated for the purpose. Bhe waa busy revolv ing a little project of her owa, which might bring her despised flowers and fema into requisition, andcurtainMiss Naomi's window.

That cluster of nomo-ihila blossoms, clear as crystal, blue as summer's sky, thof-e panslcs with Tvrian dyes tui dimmed, tlie burnished gold of butter cups, all Pleasant's lovely gleanings from brook, rock and meadow, were only so many weeds, in thosa pervert ed eyes. "We have them at home," answered Cousin Plcz, as they called her, almost stammering in her embarrassment. "A touch here and there about a honso is like a picture of summer, all the more charming when tho snow lies deep outsid?. 1 brought s-rne, thinking Imilit perhaps, find use for then, here. When you called my attention to Miss Naomi's need of a curtiin to hide that opposite wall and cover those puttied panes, I thought of thcs cflreclly, and how nice it would ie to nv.kc her a Christmas Window. Mother al wave has one." Everybody, Boyce Dicker especial ly, wanted to know about Christmas windows. To insure a larger amount of enjoyment, their arrangement mast be a surprise to the occ-jpant of the room, Pleasant add, and proceeded to give the requisite instruction: "Take pressed Mowers, ferns, autumn-leaves, or any sort of dried grass that lies tol erably flat, and pasta them on the glFS. Of cotirttc the more taste tlis ar rangement the prettier your window." "Musn't you pnt panes of glass over?" interrupted Sebastian. "We never do," answered PleasAnt "If the mucilage is thick enough, ever'! liing sticks as faat a3 you wnnt it, and, il there is not too much sun, retains its freshness until late in the spring. 'Then a little soaking, and Home rubbing bring everything o3, and tha whitlow is ready for redecor atiou another season.' j Christmas Eve the Newbres, Boyce j Decker r.nd Pieaiant, turned Miss Naomi out of her room, decorated her window, improvised a heavy curtun which she promised should not be raised until next morning, then like spirits and fairies went their happy way. Lifting that heavy shawl and letting in the light on Christmas morning what a prospect roe mod to open before Mis3 Naomi's eves. livery dtbh of color i;i that novel piece of mosaic wnt as bright as when sunshine painted it, or when, auum.ini trost kindled it fl.tme. Under the touch of those rosy flashes Pti-sliiig up from tlie unseen east, gold, .arl?:t.brown,.azure, bronze, grten, shone translucent as precious stones. Thread-like vein and lace-like veinlet, tender-nerve and exquisite broidery, all the hidden writing on those leafy hearts, started to the sur face in the fire ofeunr.se. "We can claim the promise, dear, there arc two of us," said Miss Naomi to the solitary woman who came to hear tlie Scripture read. So, in the enjoyment of tlie compan ionship of that One whoae ceming has made this day blessed forever, the dear woman held her little prayer-meeting all in tha crimson, amber aud azure glow ot those transfigured panes. Other voices mingled in praise and prayer that day, while rainbow-colors from blazoned windows shed lustre onman' an earnest face, yctnonoelrew n!irer Bethlehem's Babe than did Libs Naomi and lier audience of one two poor women in a plain little room under a broken roof. The sun never found its way into that small chamber, but, as it rose higher on the outside worhl that d:ty, glints, hints and dashes of color tiiTh' ercd on the floor and over those soli tary figures. A touch of gold shone on Mis3 Naomi's forehead, a ray of crimson trembled acroes her listener's hair. After reading the story of the "SlaMe and the Stir," they turned to that wonderful description of tlie "Holy City", with its garni turt of jasper, eapohirc "anil all manner of precious i.toncs." "I can't help thinkin" that's some thing' like it," whispered the woman, pointing to the emblazoned panes. "Oh. d.-arsu 1 future vi3ion That esger hearts eipectl Sang Mi?s Naomi. Lifting her paie,rapt facs in that nimbus of gold-colored light : "il'oa now by faith I see thee K'en hc-e thy walls discern; To thee ray thoughts are kindled, ' And strive, and pant, aad yearn." Pleasant Vincent's humble offerings had found their highest us. After all, not that which ministers to a love of the beautiful merely, or simply adorns the person, but that which reaches and elevates our immortal na tures is the best gift Its price is shore rub'ea.

Tho Bishop asked the attention to tho alarming disregard cf religious thought among business men. The cause host set forth by the variance in the male ami female nex. Woman is more religious than man, mothers are more faithful than fath ers. Moral iniluences flow rather frm the mother than the father. The speaker spoke of the rrfiaifig in fluences of education. Better 6p.no theru all than the sacred influence of home. Sliders, less difficult to influ ence than brothers, daughters less thaif sous. On Ash Wednesday, out of 127 communicants only 10 per ct. wero men. Woman's peculiarity has been observed In every age. Why is itt is a question for evt.ry thinking man. No sin of which man has been guilty, which man has not committed. The same depths of corruption cas be reached, and the same methods of salvation and redemption are imcefiia--ry for each-Adam's son or Eve's daugh ter. The condition of lifo in eithar eox is essentially different. Man as a rule has a severer moral conflict than wik man and for this reason only is wo man's religious life easier. Man tha-' ractcriaticaHv independent, but wo man socks retirement. The boys go out more than the girls. The eincerest elevotees art of early training.
