Early Death,

At early morn, maiden went out into the garden,
to gather for herself wreath from the beautiful ros
There they all stood, yet in the bud before her,
closed or but half opened their cups perfumed with
the dew of morning.
81 will not pluck yet" said the maiden. "The sun
shall first unfold your blossoms, you will then be still
more beautiful and will give orh sweeter perfume"
She came again at noon, and found the loveest Of
the roses, gnawed, by worm, pale, dropping, and
whitening beneath the beams of the sun. The maid
en- wept over her folly, and on the following morning
she gathered her wreath as the blush of day rose
bove The hills.
God calls his deares, children early from this life
before the sunbeam withers them, before the worm
fastnls upor them. The paradise of children is a

industry that brings forth the Improvement, that never
allows man to be content with any attainment he may
have made, or any work he may have el1eced-wha

side.
Beneath you to lOork! Why. l had rather chile

Better to wear out in year, than rust out in cen

That e'er hath been to mortals giv'n--
Who feel thy balm no more shall pine

The beauty Of charity is, that it blesses the giver
even more than the receiver Its duty is truly SOL

they exhibit open front, let not forget that Sc

beating in sympathy for human suffering, but pierce
their hiding places and see how many noble sufferer
there are, who shared all their prosperity with their

They are the blessings of this world-tho sweets

their merry smiles, their joyous voices their careless

hear their shouts? Who can look their faces and
not rejoice that there such happy creatures on this
dull earth? They meet the poor man coming romhis

besses them, They gather around the rich mans

The little ChiIdrens' Prayer

The following lines, written in the style OF the i
fish ballad, were sent to the children of st. Thom
Sunday School in New York, by Rev. DR.. Hawk
they were suggested by an incident in the exporcn
# their excellent author:
knew widow very poor,
Who four small children had
Tie eldest was but six years old,
A gentle modest lad.
And very hard that widow toilel,
TO feed her children four,
An honest pride that woman felt,
Though she was very poor.
y 't3or, size would leave her home,
For children must be fe
And glad was she, when she could earn
A shilling's worth Of bread
And this was all the children had
On any day to eat,
They drank their water, ate their bread,
But never TASTED meat.
One day the snow was falling fast,
anu piercing was tne air:
thought that would 60 and see
How these poor children were.
Ere long reached their cheeress home,
Twas searched by every breeze,
And going in, the oldest child
found upon bis knees,
paused to listen to the boy,
lie never raised his head,
But still went on and said Give us
This day our daily bread"
waited till the child was donc
Still listening as he prayed,
And when he rose, asked him, why
The Lords prayer he had said.
Why sir, said he, this morning, when
My mother went away,
She Vept, because she had
No bread Tor us day.
She said her children now must starve,
Our father being dead,
And then told her not to cry,
For would get some bread.
"Our Father" sir, the prayer begins,
Which makes me think that He,
AS we have no kind Father here,
Would our kind Father be.
And then you know, the prayer, too,
Asks God for bread each day,
So in the corner, sir, went
And that's what made me pray.
Iquicky left that wretched room,
And went with fleeing feet,
And very soon was back again
With food enough to eat.
81 thought God heard me-" said the boy,
l answered with q nod,
could not speak, but much thought
Of that boys faith in God.
