saw a beau,eous boy with foil dark eye,
Amid the sweetly sylvan landscape strsying,--
Nov climbing where the rud.-cliffs batted high,
And now among the garden lies playing
Or gazing glad, where foamng torrents shine
And well loved his joy,-his native hills were
mine.
saw him with his bright and clustering hair,
Still lingering fondly on his mothers knee
Amid her noble sons, and daughters faif,
The youngest, and the darling was he,-
Ind well nv heart her !, ndei smile hath kept,
Who chesr'd when child and DER whose
grave wept
marked him, rnusing shun the hrong sfsr;
When summer sunset DER the rock wa, stream

His hermit lamp al ray less midnight beaming
Upon the ancient tome 1.-THE students JOY
Had won the iervsut love OF that young cherished
boy -
In Gods high courts. ! heard q voice of power
Such ss breaks up the fogutains of the soul.
The gray-haii'd Christian blessed that sabbath
hour,
While DER the thorshtless brow contrition stole,
It's he his pure lip touched with heavenly flame
Glad herald Of tho cross; for his Redeemers
name.
There was home of bliss, mid Southern bow

Where woman's love its quenchess lus,rc she'd
Weaving with Hope, a coronst of 1owers;--
Unfolding blossoms reared their infant hend,
To drink the dcws Of prayer, with fragrant
breath
A crush that star Of love was meath the foot of
death.
But he,--the lone survivor meekly STOOD.
To bear the remnant of his Master. will
Even mid the trckline of his bosoms blood.
To do Jehovsh's bidding and be still
To grid tina weak, --re.anim the cold
And guide the wandering sheep to the great Shep-

With the sad orphans But lorious strain

BRILLIANT WHITEW ASH.

| Many have heard of the brilliant s,ucco
whitewash on the east side Of the Pres.
dents house at Washington. The fol-
lowing is receipt for making it, with
some additional improvements learned by
experiment:
Take half bushel Of nice uuslacked
lime, slack with boiling water, covering
i, during the process to keep in tho steam.
Strain the liquid though fine sieve or
strainer, and add to it peck Of salt, pre-
viously well dissolved in warm water /;
three pounds OF ground rice, boiled to H
thin paste, and stirred in boiling hot half
pound Of powdered Spanish whiting,
and II pound of clean glue, which has
been previously dissolved by first soak.
ing it we'll, and then hanging it over a
slow fire, in small kettle within a large
one filled with water. Add five gallons
of no, water to the whole mixture stir il
well, and let it stand few days covered
from dirt. |, should be put on quite hot !;
for this purpose, it can be kept in kettle
on a portable furnace. 1t is said that a.
bou, one pint of this mixture will cover a
square yard upon the outside OF a house,
if properly applied. Brushes, more or
less, small may be used, according to the
neatness Of the job required. 1t answers
as well as oil paint for wood, brick, or
stone, and is cheaper. 1t retains lis bril-
liancy for many years.
There is nothing Of the kind that will
compare with it, either for inside or outside
