The happy couple were sitting together IN their
comfortable parlor, evening toward spring.

Some wagg,sh students at Yale College, few

he could obtain lodgings here. The young chaps

vting Inn 10 take seat and join them in glass
Of punch. The old fellow who was a shrewd
Yankee, saw at once that he 10 be made the
butt of their jes,s, but quietly laying off his hat,
aud telling worthless little dog that he had with
him, to lIe under a chair, he took glass of the
profered beverage. The students anxiousiy in

There sorrow there aud tears were in CIV ery
eye; and there were low, halcsuppressed sobbings
heard from every Of the room; but the little
sufferer was still, its young spirit was just the
verge Of departure.
The mother bending over il in all the
SPECIFICS yearnings of paternal love, with one
arm under its pillow. and with the other uncon-
sciously drawing the little dying girl closer and
closer to her bosom. Poor thing in the bright
and dewy morning, it had followed out behind its
father into the field and while he there enga
ged in labor,it had patted around among the mead
ow flowers, and stuck it's bosom full, and all its
FURNISHED tIesses, with carmine and lily tinted
things, and turning tired to the fathers side he
lifted it upon the loaded cart but a stone in the
road had shaken it from it's seat and the ponderous
IRON trimmed wheels had ground it down into the
very -path, and the little crushed creature was
dying,
We had all gathered up closely to lite bedside,
and were hanging over the young, bruised thing TO
see if it yet breathed, when q slight movement
came over Its lips, and its eyes partly opened
there was no voice, but there was something be.
meath Its eyeIids, which mother could alone in
terpret. Its lips trembled again--and we all held
our breath--in eyes opened little farther, and
then we heard the departing spirit whisper in that
ear which touched those ashy lips: another
mother don't let them carry me away down to
the dark, cold, graveyard, but bury me in the
garden in the garden, mother"
A little sister, whose eyes were raining down
with the metags Of her heart, had crept up to tho
bedside, and taking the hand of the dying girl,
sobbed aloud In its esfs. "Julia! Juha! can you
speak 20 Antoinette?"

struggled hard 70 enable that little spri, to utter
one more wish and word of affection it's soul was

"done up and he need not look for help from
that quarter; so he good naturedly acknowledged
