"The clouds may be dark, but there. sunshine

In a neat and comfortable dwelling were
seated woman and child. The latter
slept, but the former was engaged in read

and an arm was gently laid on her shoulder
ere the intruder had been perceived.
Ah! Frank, you have returned early.

They went; and the old man raising his
feeble head, and begged forgiveness OF her

The lamp of life was eXtlnguished, and
the old man was gathered to his fathers.
His immense property was left uucumber-
ed to his son. As the will was read, Ella
clasped her hands, excaiming:
Now we can repay the debt of gratitude

GOOdAdviCe TO young Women

Trust not to uncertain riches, but pre-
pare yourselves for every emergency in
life. Learn to work and be not dependent
on servants to make your bread sweep
your own floor and darn your own stock
ings. Above all, do not esteem too highly
these very, honorable young men who
sustain themselves and their aged parents
by the work of their own hands, while you
caress, and receive into your company
those lazy, Idle popinjays, who never lift
finger to help themselves, as they can
keep body and soul together, and get funds
sufficient to live in fashion. If YOU are
willing, look at this subject in the way we
do and when you are old enough to become
wives, you will prefer the honest mechanic
with not cent to commence life, TO the
fashionable Ioafcr, with capital of ten thou
sand dollars. Whenever we hear remark
ed d-'Such young lady has married for
tune, we always, tremblo for her future
prosperity. Riches left to children by
wealthy parents turn out to be a curse in
stead of blessing. Young women re-
member this, and instead of sounding the
purse of your lover and examining the cut
of their coats, look into their habits and
their hearts.
Mark if they have trades and can depend
upon themselves: see that they have minds
which will lend them to look above a but
terny existence. Talk not of the beautiful
white skin and soft delicate hand, the
splendid form and the fine appearance of
the young gentlemen. Let not these fool
ish considerations engross your thought.

| If the Muncy Hills were little more awlully
steep and dangerous, | might try and tell you a
hard yarn about them but as it is, shall only
say they are conloundedly hard hill to travel
over. As soon however as you arrive at the foot
of the Hills on this, the Muncy side, the whole
face Of the country is changed-the fields look
green and every thing has decidedly improved

river a short space below, 1t is quite large and
never failing stream, and has upon its banks nu-

Montourville is a little Village lying upon the
Loyal Sock, which empies into the river a short
stream Of water known as Lycoming, and the
little village of Newbury, Think lies upon its

At the battle of Waterloo, two French officers
were advancing to charge much superior force.
The danger was immenent, and one of them dis
played evident signs Of fear. The other obser-

frightened" yes" returned the other, ''I am
and if you were half as much frightened, you
would run away" This anecdote exhibits in a
happy light the difference between moral and

hours,
That do the work Of tempests in their might.
MRs HEMANs.
Twas night-a dark and terrible night
in mid winter The snow was falling
thick and fast, and the rude north winds
played many strange and fantastic game
with its fairy flakes. Now here, and there
they danced about, TILL like weary child,
they slept at last upon the bosorha of their
mother earth. Not a sound save the ru-
ry of the storm king, disturbed the gloomy
hours.
The village clock had just toled the
hour of ten, when man, wrapped in a
cloak, and with muflled face, issued from a
low hovel by the way side. As the door
closed after him, soft voice murmured,
'God help you, Frank, and again all was
still. With much effort he braved the pit
tlless storm, and crossing to another street,
ascended the steps of an eegantbrck bull
ding. He hesitated moment then rung
the bell. A servant obeyed the summons.
is your master within p asked he in
disguised voice.
'He is; your name sir.
Tell him a gentleman wishes to sneak
with him.
Soon the servant returned, saying his
master would wait upon him directly.
With trembling step he entered the room,
and not daring to look around him, sunk
upon the nearest seat, and covered his face
with his hands. Soon an approaching
step and the opening door announced the
expected inmate.
is your business with me, sir {" asked
the old gentleman, approaching his visitor
who had involuntary risen on his entrance.
1T is, sir.
'Then please be expeditions, as compa-
ny awaits me-,
The young man did as he was desired,
and throwing aside his disguise, revealed
pale and haggard countenauce, which at
first made the beholder start with horror.
But Immediately recovering himself, he ex.
claimed in harsh voice.
Frank Delaval, this is no home for you
be gone ?
'Oh.! father,spam me not from YOU now,
Help only help" and as he said this, he
threw himself on his knees before him.
Call me not father !exclaimed Mr.. De-
lava, in voice almost sufocated with rage.
i no longer acknowledge YOU as a SON."
But" replied the man, hear me for hu-
manity's sake-ior the sake of Ella, my
wife =
Breathe not her name, exclaimed the
old man, striking his cIcnchcd fists Het
her suffer; she deserves it, and shutting
the door violently left the room.
For 4 moment Frank seemed motionIess,
then rising, he casta glance at the portrait
of his sainted mother, and left the house an
altered man. The iron had entered his
soul. Hitherto he had hoped his father
would relent-Would forgive him, m,although
he had wed the poor and lowly Ella Nor
ven. But alas there are some hearts
which will not reIent woe woe to those
who come within their influence.

Prayer for Sleep.

In beautiful hymn composed by Sir Thomas
Brown, as half adier for each night to the void,
are these striking lines:--
"Sleep is death 0 make the try,
BY sleeping, what it is to die,
And as gently lay my head
On my grave as now my bed;
Howeer rest, great God, irl no
Awake again, at iast wltt lHSe.
And thus assured behold na
Securely,-or to wake or DIE,
These are my dlowsy days; Ia vain

Sleep again, but wake forever"
