Charity.

1
Night kissed the Young rose, and it bent
softly to sleep Stars shone, and pure dew
drops hung upon its bosom, and watched
its sweet slumbers. Morning came with
its dancing breezes, and they whispered
to tile young rose, and it awoke joyous
and smiling. Lightly it danced to and
froin all loveliness Of health and youthful
innocence. Then came the ardent sun
god, sweeping from the East, and he smote
the young rose with his scorching rays,
and it tainted Deserted and almost heart
broken, it dropped to the dust in its Ioneli-
ness and despair. Now the gentle breeze,
which hads been gamboling over the sea,
pushed on the home bound bark, sweep
ing over hill anddale-by the neat cottage
and still brook, turning the old mill, tanning
the brow Of disease, and friskiag The curisl
of innocent childhaod- -carns tripping
along on her errands Of mercy aud life
and when she saw the young rose she.
hastened to kiss it, and fpndig bathed its.
forehead ID cool refreshing showers, and
the young rose revived, and looked up and
sHilIed in gratitudssto the breeze. but she
hurried quickly away; her generous task
was performed. yst not without reward;
for she soon perceived that delicious
fragrance lad been poured on her wings BY
the grat6tul rose; and the kind breeze was
glad iIlleart, and went away singing
through the trees. Thus true Charity,
like The breeze, gathers fra GRANGE from the
droopiug flowers it refreshes, and nncon-
sciousiy reaps reward ii the performance
Of its Offices Of Kindness, which steals on|
the kart like rich perfnne, - bless and to
cheer.

Beauty With tho Greeks.

In the History OF Ancient Art, Wiaels-
Gilman THUS speaks Of the esttnate put on
manly beauty by tlieancient Greeks:
"Stnte, therefore, beauty WINS thus de-
sired and priced by the Greeks, nothing
was concealed which could enhance It..
Every beautiful person sought to become
knownto the whole mutton by this Ell.
dowment, and especially to please the art
lists, because they decreed the prize Of
beauty daily. Beauty was a,f excellence
which led to fame for we find that the
Greek histories make mention of those
who were distinguished for 1t. Some per-
sous were even characterized by partic.
uar name, borrowed from some particular
portion of the body; thus Demetrius Poll
orcetcs was named, from the beauty Of his
eyellds, csaytto5lephdsos, that is to say,
on whose lids the Graces DWELL II ap-
pears, indeed, to have been belief, that
the procreation Of beautiful children might
he promoted by the distribution of prizes
for beauty, as there Is reason 10 infer from
the contests of beauty which were nsti-
tuted in the renlotest ages by Cypselus
king OF Arcadia, in the time Of the Hera-
clidB, on the banks of the river Alpheus,
in Ellis ; and also from the fact that, at the
festival Of the Philesian Apollo, prize
for the most exquisite kiss was conferred
on the youthful It's assignment was sub
ject to the decision Of Judge, as was
probably also the case at Megara, at the
tomb Of Dioeles. AT Sparta, and at Los
aos, in the temple Of Juno. and among the
citizens Of Parrlasia, the women contend
ed for the prize Of beauty. Theregard for
this quality was 50 general aud so strong,
that, as Orphan declares, the Spartan wo-
men placed in their sleeping rooms an Ap-
ollo, or Bacchus. Or Nereus, or Narciss,is,
Or Hyacinthus, or Castor and Pollux, in
order that they might bear beautiful chill
iren. If 1t is true, what Dion Chrysos-
tom asserts Of his time, and that of Trajan,
that manly beauty has ceased to be ain OBJ
ect Of regard, that people no longer knew
now to prize them, then this very disre-
