That was not his real name, yon lenow; but only a name liiven him by Ada and inc. His real name was Percy Dana named for our father. Percy's father was Father Willard's dearest friend; audivhcn he died, Percy came to Jive with us in our dear old Glouces ter home by the sea. The large stone house, with its vine covered walls, its wide, sunny windows looking toward the ocean how plainly I can see it to-night, as I sit lonely, listening to the dreary November rain. A picture of home on such a nij-ht as this comes to mo now. I sec my father sitting in his largo easy-chair, drawn close to the hearth, lliere is an open Bible on his knees, and he is reading in a low voice to mother, who sits at his right hand, quietly knitting. There is a pleasant fire in the ample fireplace and the hickory logs burn and crackle cheerfully. Percy is sitting with Ada at the old round table, reading. I am studying my "Virgil;" but I look up occasionally at the bright young faces that I love so dearly. Percy is strong and tall and cornel. His face is not handsome, but it is a fine face. The mouth indicates gentleness and is a pleasant mouth to look at; butthe eyes, tinder a broad white forehead, are Per cy's chief claim to beauty. No one could ever tell their color, for it was ever changing now from hazel to gray, and now from gray to black. m I was. al ways glad when Percy laughed or smiled; for when in repose his eyes were the saddest ljiave ever seen in a human countenance. It was on the evening of which I have spoken that we first tried the opera of "Bobby Shafto." Ada and Percy had finished their reading, and I mT lesson, when Ada proposed wo should look over some music which Undo Will had Kent us from New York. Among tho collection we found thi3 pretty opera. Ada took it to the piano and tried parts of it here and there; and then, turning to Percy and me, said: "Why can we not give it? Percy, you shall bo Bobby Shafto, and you, Helen, shall he the heroine." But t said, quickly: "Oh! no, Ada, I am taller and older than Percy, and have not half so sweet a voice as your own." Andso the matter was decided. Wo gave it one November evening, in the great oak parlors. Some of tho Gloucester boys and girls came up to assist us; and wo were listened to by a large and delighted company of old and young. After tho supner was over and neigh bors and friends had all left us, wo gathered around the lire, to talk over the events of the night. Ada's cheeks were s; ill glowingauu hcrfair, sweeteyes were bright, as she sat on a stool at our feet, looking dreamily into the tiro. "I was very proud of you to-night, little Ada," said Percy; "and in tho character of Bobby Shafto, I pitied myself when I was obliged to go to sea and leave you." Ada looked up then, and her face was very fair and girlish in tho firelight. "Oh! but, Percy,-! did really havo to cry when the tidings came: Bobby Shafto's lost at sea!' It all seemed so real. And when they came with tho glad song 'Bobby; Shafto's found at l sea!' I was so glad I nearly forgot to sing. Wc will always call you Bobby Slinftn frnm tliia nicrlit T flilnL-- lt 1 '.

Percy re garded her for a moment with a "look full of gentleness, and said: "Ada, the good Father will watch over us on sea, as on land," and then, as the hours waned, he kissed us good night; but he kissed Ada with exceed ing tenderness, and let his hand rest a moment caressingly upon her bowed head. A little later, and wo stood, with our anus around each other, looking out into tho night. The sea lay calm, a ribbon of moon-light gilding its dark, mysterious bosom; and we could hear the quiet washing of the waves upon the beach. All was still, serene; and as we looked something of the peace of the night stole into our hearts, and then we went quietly to rest. To-night I cannot help thinking of tho ast. -The wind whistles through the caflesd trees outside, and the rain beats 1ersistently against the window-panes, draw my ehair closer to the open grate, and I think of another day a day in rose-wreathed June. Bobby Shafto, as Ada and I had con tinued to call Percy, had been studying civil engineering, and he had accepted a. profitable engagement, which would take him to aiar-olt-city in bouth Amer ica. We all protested against a venture which would separate us so widely; but, finally, father said, if it was for -A Percy's best interest, he should be glad for him, and for his sake submit resign i edly to his loss from our hearth and -iiome. He was to have gone on the very day of which I have spoken; but -the gentleman in whose employ he was and who was to have accompanied im was taken suddenly ill; and so we ere all glad that the day ot parting s, at least, postponed, in the early minff of that day Percy and Ada nt together once more down to the ich. I stood and watched them as ey walked away. A soft south wind blowing, ana it played gently with a's fleecy carls. The morning was sweet-scented and sunlit. By the time thev had returned, however, clouds had risen, full of. threatening. But in Bobby Shafto's eyes there was "a light that never was on land or sea," Ana it seemed as if Ada's swjiet face had stolen some of the morning's rosy light The key to the secret was 'Bobby Shafto's little goldring on my sister's fair, small hand. Jb-ifLse&rcsiv congratulated them "on their escape from the rain, which now began to fall in heavy sheets, when our attention was arrested by the loud ringing of the bell. In answering the , summons we found three sailors at the 1 door, who asked for the loan of our boats. A pleasure-party had gone out ' of me naroor early that morning, and, as some anxiety was felt bv their friends for their safety since the storm ..had so suddenly overtaken them, they ttYQiUDteerca to go out m quest ox gp email ws fully told Percy left the house, and soon returned with a strong pair of oars and dressed ready to breast the tempest. He offered to accompany them and render what evcr -assistance he could. Laying my hand upon his arm, I said: " Percy! Percyl Must yon, will you go and risk a life so dear to us all?" But Adaclung to him, weeping, and with plaintive entreaty besought him not to venture out on the angry sea. Kissing her quietly, he said, with an air of unwonted composure, trust and faith: "God will take care of me, little Ada. And now, good-bye." Ada, still detaining him. said: " No, no! Not good-bye, Bobby Shafto. Say Auf wialcrchcn, Percy." "Auf triclcrschcn."' ho called back, in a brave, cheery voice, as he waved his -hand and was gone. Tho storm grew louder and fiercer! the waves dashed high on the rocks; and thick darkness, almost like that of midricht. closed in upon ti3. Father sat witli his head bowed, and we knew that he was praying. Mother and Ada and I stood with our faces pressed against the window panes, an agony of sus pense in our hearts which found ev- nrcsaion onlv in our hairtrerd faces At leugth'the day died, and the dark ness of night fell over the face of earth and sea like a veil of mourning. The old clock which stood in the cor ner, and which had kept up its cease less, somber tick! tick! during these long hours of silence and unspoken fears and forebodings, struck the hour of twelve, when the sound of approaching footsteps was heard. Then came a knock at the door. To the almost fran tic demand of father, "Where is my bov?" the response which came from the lips of the strong men who stood belore him was mingieu wun sous 01 sympathy and sorrow. ; The boat was overturned when we were not far from the shore, and we all struck out for the beach. Wo thought Percy, as he was an expert swimmer, was just behind us: but on reaching lanu, he was nowhere to be seen. We called but tliere came.no answer. And we all plunged back intothesea;butoursearch was vain. Perchance lie rcaeneu ins shore further down the harbor." It was some such mesarc as this they brought us. 1 remember only its sad import; for Ada turned to me with a cry of agony, exclaiming, as she threw herself into my arms: Bobby Shafto's lost at sea!" "But, darling," said I, "don't you remember the after-words of tho song 'Bobby Shaflo's found at sea 'P 5od! willin". the morninir shall bring our Bobby Shafto back to us again." In the gray of the early dawn Ada was gone, and we found her kneeling beside our loved, lost Percy. His brave young face was upturned to the morn ing sun. The ebbing tide played about his feet and the soft wind gently lifted his fair hair from a brow upon which death had set his remorseless signet. There w:ts a restful peace upon the dear, boyish face, and we knew that, as for Bobby Shafto, "God had taken care of him." The fire burns low, the lights grow dim and to my lonely heart comes a whisper, "Auf wic'dcrschcn." They were the last words on Ada's lips, for she soon went to meet Bobby Shafto. It was hard for my rebellious heart to trust in those days. It seemed a strange. cruel Providence that should call our j dear Percy out on the treacherous waves, and take him from us in thu Hush of j his bright young life. And when Ada, my sister, left me, my cup of bitterness ! was full. But God knew best. He took them to Himself. I And so to-night, with chastened heart and with faitli and hope, I catch a i glimpse of the faces of the dear depart ed ones, and, reaching forth my hands to the sweet vision, I echo back to them their words of parting: "Auf icicilcr schen" Good-by till we meet again, in the land "that is fairer than day."

I have been quite interested recent ly in New Zealand, in a geological sense, and have been quite surprised to find out what an attractive place in somo respects it is. It is about the size of England, and has little pieces of all parts of the world huddled together within its boundaries. It lias mountains wrapped in snow and infested with glaciers like tho Alps (one peak. Mount Cook, rises over 18, 000 feet above the level of the sea) ; it has a temperate zone of charming plains, valleys and table lands; it has the barren and rocky hills of Maine; it has the dismal swamp of Florida; it has tropical forests, including the lux uriant and graceful fern tree and cab bage palm, large inland lakes and noble rivers; it has volcanic mountains vom iting fire and lava, ge'sers liko those of Iceland, hot springs and warm lakes, and it has, besides, features peculiar to itself wild and deep gorges make an impassable division between some dis tricts immense rolling plains covered with waving ferns; on one side Aus tralia, the largest island in the world (about the size of the United States); on the other the lovely islands of the South Sea, the most beautiful region on the globe, coral bound aud ocean born, vividly colored, affording subsistence without labor, with a delicious, dreamy languor in the air and alow monotone of surf, hinting vague remembrances of the throbbing vibrating ocean heart from which they sprang. Coal is found in New Zealand in abundance, also limestone, silver, cop per, tin and iron, gold-bearing quartz reels, gold fields and golden sand which has been carried down by the rivers to the sea, and with every tide thrown back upon the shore, so rich is the deposit, making literal the ex pression, "golden sands of the sea shore." Heaps of gold arc sometimes found lying among the rocks or loose ly covered with earth (gold was dis- covered.in 1852, and since that time 2.6,000.000 have been exported up to 1874). Snakes do not exist. Over 100 years ago Captain Cook visited the island. He found no animals except a rat and a green lizard. He left a num ber which multiplied rapidly. Birds existed and still exist in great num bers. Mrs. S. H. Ballard, t the N. Y. Graphic. Coming Dispatches. Chixa and Russia are going to wai.

To one book the Bible he was pro foundly indebted in several senses; but few other works can be mentioned as seriously affecting or informing him. He may have taken an idea or two from Fox's Book of Martyrs;' but on tho whole Fox probably did him more harm than good. Tho liible was, in fact, his library." Mil. Bret Haute said at the Royal Academy dinner that he presumed ho was selected to reply to the toast of "Literature" as a native of a country which reads more English books anil paj-s less for them than any other Na tion. "I rocognize," he added, "your appreciation of what is said to be dis tinctive American literature-a litera ture which laughs with tho American skies, and is by turns a? surprising and as extravagant as the American weather. Indeed, 1 am not eertain that these cyclones of American humor that cross thu Atlantic are not as providential as tho American storms that mitigate tho austere monotony of the English cli mate. For it has been settled by ymir reviewers that American literature is American humor, and that this Ameri can humor is a kiud of laughable impro priety, more or less scantily clothed in words. It has been settled that 3011 are a sober people, and that nobody in America 'takes life .seriously- -not even a highwayman and that our literaturo is a rellcx of our life.

John Bright and American Poets The purity of John Bright' s English has often been a surprise, to critical hearers, who knew that he had en joyed in early life but limited advan tages of education. Even Mr. Glad stone, with his University training and the literary pursuits of a long life, has not the command of such a pure and sinewy English style as that which marks the speeches of the Lancashire manufacturer, who never went to col lege or wrote a book. In an interview with an American friend recently. Mr. Bright referred to a habit which ex plains the origin of his good English style. He has always read, carefully, the best authors, and especially the poets. For many years he has read a poem every night before retiring. He added a remark complimentary 'to our American poets. Of late years, he said, his evening readings have been confined chiefly to American poets, among whom" Longfellow, Bryant; Whittier and Lowell were foremost. English poets are too obscure and in volved to be enjoyed, or to serve as models. Poetry, he thought, like all speech, should be intelligible, and leave no reader in doubt of its meaning. In this respect Americans arc much su perior to their English rivals.-:-Youth? s Companion. m Orra ancestors, the monkeys, could'ni have been so ignorant after all.

The word "Ghazi" has come to man in Western eyes something very differ ent from its legitimate signification. It originally meant a couqueror. or great hero, and in this sense it i used in modern Turkey. Osman Paha was dubbed "Ghazi" when his splendid resistance to the Ktisjian saved for a time the fate of his country, and the title is one held in the highest respect bv Mohammedans. From "conqueror"' thu meaniug has passed into lower grades, one of commonest being "a gallant soldier" (especially combating ni!idc!ri); ami at ta-t, in the common course of event, it has been appropria ed in tho all-comprehensive vocabulary of the English language with a distinct and localized meaning. To us now a Ghazi is simply a iu:iu upon whom fanaticism has had so powerful an effect that all physical fear of death is swaniped in his ilesiro to take the life "of a Kallir, and, with his soul purified by the blood of the unbeliever, to be translated at once to Paradi-o, A true Ghazi counts no odds too great to face, no danger too menacing to bo braved; tho certainty of death only atlds to his exultation, and, as in the case of other madmen, desperation and insensibility to consequences add enormously to his muscular powers and endurance. To kill such a mau is sometimes so diificult a task at close quarters that our men have learned to respect their peculiar mode of lighting, aud a ritle bullet at a fair distance checks lltn GhaPs course before he can close upou his assailants with the terrible sharp knifo he knows so well how to use. If ever Afghan were a Ghazi, as I once said during the siege of Sliurpur, our defenses would have been carried aud enormous slaugh- 1 ter would havo followed on both shies; but Ghazis arc few and far between, though a spurious imitation is not un common. This imitation is often taken for the real article, whereas phang or some other stimulant is the motive ' power, and not desperate fanaticism. 1'iuN misuse of the word "Ghazi" is strikingly seen in the accounts of tho last war, forty years ago. Wo arc told ' of bands of Ghazis, many thousand ' strong, harassing the retreating army aud cutting off stragglers ; and tho.-c Ghazis are always spoken of :is being quite out of the control of Akbar- ; Khan. If they had been true Ghazis they would have made short work of j our little army long before it reached: the Khurd Cabul. To see how thousands of Ghazis are alw.ivs beiuir ! spoken of, one would imagine they were a powerful clan, similar to tho Ghilzais, Kohistansor Afrids; but prac- ' tical acquaintance with tho form fanati cism assitmes about Cabul shows only too clearly that out of a crowd of 50, 000 armed fanatics, such as lately held Cabul, not ono in a hundred rises to tho supreme rank of a Ghazi. They are not born and bred to tho vocation ;" chance makes them what they aro, ami . our men know that a stray spark of en thusiasm may kindle their fanaticism and send theiii into our mitlst. The Ghazi is the creature of the mool lah. The hitter's eloquence is listened t to by some more than usually su-eepti- ', bio villager, whose enthusiasm in aroused to fovcr heat by a glowing story of a Ghazi who went out into the iutidel camp, cut down two or three Kaffirs and died the death of a martyr, his soul ' going straight to tho laps of "the houris, and nis name living forever among his kindred. Shall he not emulate such a glorious example. so that his children and his children's ' children may hand down his name to i ail generations as a Ghazi Allah-din a "Champion of the Faith?" Tho moollah s preaching has had its effect, and a Ghazi has been called into being. If a great jehad is being preached, that manwi 1 always be in tho fore-front of the battle, antf will probably carry tho standard of his clan, bles-cd by the moollah who has aroused the tribes men. But a few weeks ago the arch moollah, Muski Alam, sent out his mes sage from Sharkh, and how well it was responded to wo arc living witnesses, j With Ghazis in their midst to lead the timorous, and moollahs alwavs at hand to fan their fanaticism, Mohammed Jan's rabble did wonders. How the Ghazis acquitted themselves our men well know, many poor fellows to their ' cost. In the action in the Charden Val- . ley the standard- bearers rushed in even whep our cavalry chirgcd, and no more . reckless rush was ever made. Many ' went down, but about them wore others equal in desperation. A trooper of the f rsinth transfixed a man with his lance; the Ghazi wriggled up like an eel, grasped the lance with hi- left hand, and with one stroke of the knife cut through the lancer's han I and the tough shaft as it had been nnde of tin der. Thi3 is not romancing, the troop er is still living, but minus the fingers of his right hand: With an army of such men agaiast us, ecn our splendid arms aniF steady dis ipline might avail nothing. But the true Ghazi is a phenomenon he. at least, deserves the scientific and sonorous litlo and even Afghan fanaticism can not bring forth many, however great may be the eloquence of the moollahs.

Hitherto when a professional diver went under water a tube has supplied j mm with air. liut a Mr. i-lens 3 has patented a proces by which an experi enced diver can remain under water for hours, having within his helmet and dress a supply of compresssed oxygen jras, diluted with nitrojen, which is naturally present in his lungs and in j ine uiving aress woen ne assumes iu The exhaled carbonic acid- being brought into contact with caustic soda, the deadly gas is transformed into sim ple carbonate of soda.

The French lady who. when invited lo partake of an F.uglish dish with which she was not familiar, answered. "I al only my acquaintance," showed a true appreciation of the a'slhetic side of eating. To eat what is set before us. and ask mo questions for eoitscenvo' sake may bo very satisfactory to the cook, but if our food does not assimi late with our brain force, then wo have a discordant system, and life ii not worth living. The higher tho order of food that wo oat. the more perfect will our digestion be. Tho fro,; sits kindly on our stomachs; it is a creature of immense resources; it can charm a neighborhood with its cuueurt power or funi'sh a medical college with a v.il uab'.o subject for a vivisection, aud in the materia medica it is an Important anti-scorbuti;. The study of tho circu lation of tho blood finds a model in the cold llittil of Mr. Frog as ob-crved through hi delicate tissiius of Iran ' parent fiber.

This denizen of our ponds pos sesses a voice about a hundred times as big as himself; tho only approach to it in size and volume is tliat of the black smith frog of Kfb Janeiro, whoe music resembles an anvil chorus.

In this country we uso only the hind legs, but in Germany the mus cular parts aro freely eaten. In the West Indies the climate seem to have changed the llesh into fowl, as it more strongly resembles spring chicken, is tinner and of a more succulent, deli cious flavor, in addition to which it is cooked in the native wines ami spices until it is a dish fit for tho gods. The species is known as the grunting, ami is six or eight inches long. It is a high-flyer, jumping live-barred gates with ease. It is also capable of domes tication, and is gifted with a certain quick intelligence. As pot-pies, Htews and chowders they are a failure. The only legitimate way to cook a frog is to fry him brown iu sweet table butter. As a preliminary he must be dipped in a batter of cracker dust, which should adhere closely when cooked, forming a daintv cracknel of a golden brown color, with a crisp tang to it when submitted to the teeth. The tender juices thus re tained lose none of their del'cate flavor, and the dainty morsel need- no condiments to give it an additional zest.

Detroit Post and Tribune. A " spuixc-stvle" circular with a number of new forms of the duplex tickets which arc now very widely used, has been issued. Besides ordinary tickets to be given by conductors, these specimens include "half-fare tickets, special excursion tickets, receipt to commutera who have left their tickets at home, stop-over checks and others of the many forms required in the daily business of a railroad. In all these are preserved the special principle of the duplex ticket, the two halves, one to be given to the passenger and returned to the company, the other to be re tained by the conductor, the two form ing mutual checks and venchers. Among the new applications of the principles are a baggage and freight check for the Pittsburgh Southern, showing nature of articles, amount paid, etc, and the shipper's half form ing a check or receipt to be delivered oa receipt of the goods at destination. Another is a grain warehouse check for the Lake Shore Hoad. which must be extremely convenient where a large business 'is done. On it the warehouse man can punch off in a minute the date, kind and amount of gram received, to be entered afterward at his leisure on the books, while the shipper exchanges his half-check for a receipt, and it forms a voucher for the warehouse books. These dnplex tickets, in some of their forms, are now iu use on roads all over the United States and Canada.
