TAKINo RIGHT STAND "The way is,
my boy, the way to do IS, take your STAND
RIGHT in the first place."
"And stand by your stand, " added Richard
Just so." aud the sad expression OF grand
fither face for a moment passed away to one
of pleased appreciation, as he looked down upon
the yellow haired boy at his feet ''Just so !!
you know the little brook yonder, I" the old
man nodded towards it, "you know the brook.
"Yes, sir, ~ answered Richard brskly,
jumping up on his feet, for he knew the little
brook and loved il too; he thought it was a
queer question. "Ycs, sir, / know the brook,
well enough"
90 You see how the water runs down"
''Fast and quick" exclaimed Richard, going
and looking over into the gully.
Easy enough, don't it down, down !"
Yes, sir, it rather go than not it skips a
long from stone to stone," and Richard smll-
ed over the brook carrying everything
along with it, except now and then great
stone stops II. I"
the Drink of the gulley.
"You see that rock there" he pointed to
to one with his staff.
40 yes, that is the great one, that if it
f)ams and dashes and spashes ever so much,
ma1dcning and scolding as you know how II
does after the rain, grandfather, carrying all
the little rocks before il, that one never moves;
that rock WON'T, bulge, any how and don
believe all the rains IN the world can make
it," And Richard looked up very decidedly.
Grandfather had heard the children talk about
il before, when they used to run and see what
changes the rains had made in the gulley.
THAT rock seems to have taken stand,
don't it, Richard!''
Yes, SIR" answered he, looking from the
rock up into his grandfather face, ''yes, sir,
it's taken stand, hasn't it--and won't be
moved--taken a stand ~ repeated Richard
his eyes glistening as if new thought had
struck him.
''It has, has it not Richard 7" again asked
tie grandfather.
'Yes sir, it has, am sure it has, and MOTH
ING will moyeit! :"
''Just 50 want YOU TO stand my boy-6rm
as that rock-doing wrong will carry you
down, fast and easy, just like the waters, down
down and if you don't want to be carried
down you must take stand just like that rock
take a stand KEEP 1T, " and grandfather
brought his cane firmly down upon the gravel
"f Micah had done so. he would not be
where he now is--no-!" and grandfather
sighed, ''no-no!"
Richard looked down with interest upon
that rock; sits taken stand - repeated the
the boy, ''just as | must, and if the waters
come ever so much, it won't move, 50 must
take right stand, and keep it," and he never
perhaps watched the boiling, scampering
brook with such eagerness as he looked he
was almost afraid it would go: no there it stood
as if il neither heard or fel, their gurgling or
their pushing. Mrs knights " Richard Hn'-

MOVE on.

The march Of life should never stay
AL things should onward tend
Man should not clog progression's way,
But strive TO move and mend.
The waters move in depths Of ocean,
The sireams along the dales, fn
And riyulets, with onward motion,
Through sweet and verdani vales.
Move on
The clouds move gently through the sky,
The earth rolls ever on
Time swiftly in its course runs by;
And years pass one by one.
Men, too, should strive to follow them,
In this their onward way,
Permitting naught the tide TO stem,
But ever, day by day, ~
=, Move on .
Men may be wiser, if they strive
More virtuous, if they viii;
And who, within this world, would thrive,
Must aim at higher still
let bigots stand by doctrines old,
The wise will pass them by;
Weak minds may cling with subtle hold,
But strong ones valiantly
Move OIL
Like waters rolling to the ocean,
Down mountains piled on high
Like clouds forever in commotlon,
That move across the sky
Will we forever onward press,
Thus feiterless and free
And deeming virtue happiness,
Our watchword ever be-
Move on

The LOWER CLAssEs.-NVho are they7-
The laborng men and women, the farmer,
the mechanic, the artlZan, the inventor, the
producer Far from it. These are nature S
nobility God favorites, the salt of the earth.
No matter whether they are high or Low in
sation. rich or poor in peli, conspicuous or hum
BILE in position, they are surely the upper cir
cles,' in the order of nature, whatever the fic-
tliious distinctions of society, fashionable or
unfashionable, may decree. Ii is not low, 1t is
the highest duty, privilege and pleasure for the
great men and the whole -souled women To earn
what they possess, to work their own way
through life, to be the architects of their own
fortunes. Some may rank the classes we have
alluded to as only relatively low and in fact
the middling classes. We insist they are alb
solutely the very highest. ii there is a class OF
human beings on earth who may be properly
denominatcd low, it is composed of those who
spend without earning, who consume without
producing, who dissipate on the earnings of
their fathers or relatives without being or do
ing any thing in aid Of themselves.
Welded LIFE.-A husband and a father
hath thousand enioyments undreamed of by
the unwcdded. The world may look cody
on the former, the perplcxities of business
may call frown TO his brow, friends may
prove faithless, the ingratitude of men may
chill his heart for awhile, but there is a spell at
his own fireside that will invariably restore
peace to his bosom. The quiet smile of this
little girl, the merry shout OF that little boy, or
the kind solicitude Of loving wife, hath
each balm for the wounded spirit. In sick
ness, the married man can command blessings
which gold piled mountain-high can never pur-
chase.
