MY RESTING-PLACE.. BY GEO. w. DEWEY.
When am dead,
Place no stone above my breast,
But, rather, let my ashes rest
Beneath the aspen's shade
For like that tree my spirit played,
By pain or pleasure lightly swayed
Oft varying from sun to shade;
Then place no stone above my head
When am dead
Perchance some friend with pilgrim pace
May wander to my resting place,
And read from memories in the heart,
What no inscription could impan
When am dead
Then place no stone above my head.
Oh lay me where the buds shall bring
The earliest perfume of the SPRING
Where violets shall watch and weep,
Through starry vigiS, o'eT my sleep:
While, in the grave yards dewy damp,
The glow worm burns her funeral lamp,
Until the flowers, that sleep all night
Take up the morning watch of light;
And, perching on the dropping limbs,
The birds come chanting early hymns;
Or. with low, melOdiOus tune,
Charm all the sultry breath of noon
And, with the beauty of their lays,
Make JOY throughout the sunless days:
Or when, within the twilight gray,
No football cheers the lonely way,
Beneath the signing aspen there,
The mumuE of the yespeT air
May breathe, above the lowly spot,
The dirge by friends remember d not,
When am dead
Then place no stone above my head
But only let the aspen & shade
Betoken where my dust is laid,
N Y. Home J0urRGl.l When am dead.

A VERY BAD CHILD.-We find melancholy
account in the New York Star In New York, a
genteel looking female applied to one of the police
magistrates, for the apprehension of her child, a
girl of IA years old. She stated that for the last
three MONTHS her daughter had been in the practice
of going away and staying all night. That on Sat
urday night she left her home and did not return,
nor was she seen until Tuesday night, when she
was found at an infamous house. Upon the mother
hearing Of the whereabouts of her child, she went
to the house, and there her seated in of the
rooms, surrounded by two or three girls of her own
age, playing cards. Upon requesting her to return
home, she turned upon her mother and abused her
in a most shameful manner, and ended by throwing
a candlestck at the head of her parent In vain did
the unhappy woman demonstrate with the misguided
girl; she refused to leave the house, and the poor
creature was obliged TO leave without her. war
rant issued for her arrest, but, upon the officer
going to serve it, he found that she had fled.
