The old man was so fond OF the animal,
that he was determined even after death
should not separate them, for he had had
her stuffed and placed upon the tester of
his bed. As Suzetie took puss down.
she uttered an exclamation of surprise at
finding her SO heavy. The lover has.
tened TO open the animal, when out fell

sand louis concealed in the body of the
cat and this sum, which the old miser
had starved himself TO amass, became
The just reward OF the worthy girl and

consequence was quarrel, in which the
young lady lost at once her place and
her lover, who sided with her mistress.

From Burritt's Christian Citizen.
HI @ MI e.

Scarcely in our English language,
Can be found voice more sweet,
Than one our childhood's lispings,
Learn SO early to repeat;
From the humble toiling peasant,
To the Queen upon her throne,
Not heart but beats responsive
To the magic spells of Home.
Birthplace of the souls affection
Love is thy unchanging dover,
As the light is to the sunbeam,
And sweet odors to the flower.
Love unseen, but ever present,
Like the free unfettered air,
Unperceived by outward vision,
Yet we breathe it everywhere.
Home! all charms around thee twining,
Binds us to the sacred spot;
Earliest scene of fond remembrance,
And the last to be forgot.
Po!e-star of the wandering stranger!
Wheresoe'er his footsteps roam,
Ttuns his heart with strong attraction,
To the blessed light of home.
All things fair, or good, or noble,
Round the hearthstone may be found,
There the wife and mother .dwelleth,
Spreading happiness around.
Laughing childhood sports beside her,
With its bright and beaming eye,
Smiling love to all aroundit,
Like sunbeam from the sky.
Age, with locks of silvery whiteness,
Guides the trembling steps of youth
In the pleasant ways of Wisdom,
And the sacred paths of Truth.
Manhood's soul of noble daring,
Shows what trophies may be won
On the battlefield of Progress,
And to action leads them on.
Home! the Nursery of Nations!
Brightest hopes of future good
Rest upon thy mission being
Better known and understood.
1t is thine to train the HowARDs
And the HAMPToNs of our race,
Thine to teach MnToN's firmness,
And SYDNEY's polished grace.
Thine to train nations daughters,
For their duties pure and high;
Thine to teach their power to vanquish
Many an i'll DER which they sigh.
In the happy fireside circle,
Womans genius must be taught,
HEAD as well as heart instructed,
In the claims by duty brought.
Then will s'they who rock the cradle"
Fitted be to ssrule the World,"-
Then 'gainst every form of Evil
Will mighty power be hurled;
For the MIND of coming ages,
WoMAN's touch will form and mould,
She can crush the buds of Evil,
And the germs of good unfold.
Happier than the ancient sages
We have power to move the World:
Wider spread the glad Evangel,
Be the sacred Page unfurled;
This the leyer-but it rests not
Meath the temples swelling dome;
If The World move on and upward,
1t must rest in Home, sweet HOME.
