Thus sadly spoke little girl OF six years
Of age, one of family of four children, as
the widowed mother dragged hei weary
limbs 10 her scanty Furnished room after the
drudgery. The world is full Of poor. What
business has man or woman 10 be poor.
Last season while ut work poor but hard
working lrishman fell dead, leaving a wife
and four children who had been dependent
upon his toll for their bread.
Here was trouble. The landlord was
afraId he should lose few dollars and cents.
He was certain a.roor woman with family
of children could not pay him the money for
rent. And SO he rented the dwelling 10
another without n word said TO the widow
when he warned her out, she said she could
work and pay the rent. But if she should
be sick, he would lose it ! so he ordered her
out for his word had passed that another
should take her place. Alter nightftil she
was compelled 10 turn out and seek another
roof TO cover her and her children. Here
again the landlord was afraid of losing his
rent. But friend became responsible and
The widow and her little ones had again a
place to rest their heads. But the rent is ex
acted in advance. The woman goes out
washing, day after day, aud week after week.
Six days of hard toll goes 10 pay the rent for
four weeks. Many day has she thus gone
TO her work, leaving sick child to chldren's
care, expecting TO find it dead at night. Here
is heroism-here is a stern wrestling with
poverty which brings out tine sublime. quail
ties of the woman and mother. The little
girl we alluded to in the commencement was
a beautiful creature, bright gem in the cir
Gle that hovereJ around the scaniy board and
welcomed the mother from her tolls. The
little girl was taken sick and died. We saw
the procession winding over the hill up
North street, and knew by the bell that an
other was passing away The widow has
one the less mouths to toll for, but one the
less gladstone smiles to greet her. The
cords Of affection and love are as strongly
woven into the hearts Of the poor, as of the
rich and well to do. Well, the poor will
have no rent TO pay, or bread TO toll for in
heaven.

Dow Jr., on California.

Ny hearers i know very well what will
procure you bliss BY the hogshead; it is that
wretched filthy stuff, called money. This it is
that keeps your souls in flutter, and sets you
jumping like lot of chained monkeys at the
sight of a string of fish. You think if you on
ly had certain heap of lucre, and you would
be off in lavender make mouths at care-say
how are We to sorrow-laugh at time, and feel
as happy as an oyster in June. o, yes! ifyou
only had enough of the trash, | would admit
you might feel satisfied and of course, con-
tented but in such cases more requires more,
(according to Daboll and rum,) the last more
requires most, and wants more yet; and SO on,
to the end of the everlasting. THERE'S no such
thing as the end of worldly riches. AS vel
might the sow be supposed to get enough Of
wallowing in the mire, as for mortal to be sat
isfed with rolling in wealth. So false are
your ideas of the means to obtain happiness,
that you would, if you could, coax angels
from the skies to rob them of the jewels in
their diadems. haven't the least doubt of it
NV dear friends-I will tell you how to en-
Joy as much bliss as heaven can afford to hu-
mans. Be content with what you have, no
matter how poor it is, until you have an OPP
portunity to get something better. Be thank
ful for every crumb that falls from the table
of Providence, and live in constant expecta-
ton of having the luck TO pitch upon whole
loaf

MIR. Paine'S Light.

Our old friend Anson L. Perry, formerly

would prevent his being imposed upon, has
satisfied himself that Mr.. Paine discoveries

Mr.. Edward l.. Brown, the agent who left
for Europe in the last steamer, though he
had been engaged on the drawings, and con-
versant with the machine for months, never
saw the interior of the heIices and electrodes

he been enlightened about their construction,
though he had perfect confidence in the gen.
uineness of what Mr.. Paine claimed 10 have
discovered. When they were exhibited to
him, he was completely astonished a, the
clever conirivance adopted by the inventor to
secure The wished for result.
Our friend believes that any candid man
who shall see the machine operate, even
without understanding the secret parts, will
admit that Mr'Paine has discovered exacrly
