Aaron RidgeIy,
A TALE~oF THE TIMES

Bi G. NAiREN
at the period when our story commences
Aaron Ridgcly was worthy mcchanic--a mas
ter workman: upright in all his dealings, prompt
to redeem his promises, and possessing the es.
tccm and confidence of all who knew him
With good health, plenty Of work, and a round
sum laid up for rainy day, he was an object
Of envy to his fellow mechanics But VIC have
not enumerated all the blessings which boun-
tiful Providence had showcrod upon him. lie
was the husband of beautiful wife, and the
father of a lovely babe. These were his house
hold duties morning and evening he paid then
his sincere worship, and sought for no higher
joys than were to be found in his own little
domestic circle.
DO you believe it possible that the tempter
Of souls can convert this pure love of husband
and father into his bitterest curse? Time will
show; but, in the mean timc his cup of happi-
ness seemed to be full, and he had all that
heart could wish. But one thing was wanting
while his heart was overAowing with the most
ardent affection for his dear ones, he forgot to
give God thanks.
Ridgcly was not naturally selfish man &c.
fore the birth Of his darling Ellen, he was free
handed and generous to fault. The widow
and orphans knew him for friend. The un-
fortunate never sought for aid in vain. The
smiles and kind words which invariably accom-
panied his charitable deeds chccrcd many n
dropping spirit, and bound the hearts of the
desolate to himself by the strongest tics of love
and gratitude.
But soon after his beloved Matilda became n
mother, q change came over him. 1t was gra-
dual, but not the less thorough and decided.
The pleasant smiles that were wont to play
constantly about his lips were soon no more.
lie became thoughtful, absent minded, and even
morose. His brow was contracted, and his eye
was stern, as though some dominant, fixed pur-
pose had taken possession Of his soul. What
ever that purpose was, it seemed to have ex-
oluded every kind and generous fceling-now,
when the destitute applied to him for charity,
he would always hesitate, and often send them
away unaided.
Ills comrades, when they approached him,
rs of old, with jokes and ringing laugh, were
quickly repclled by his gloomy and lowering
looks And they would ask each other "What
is the matter with poor Ridgely? Once, none
so merry as he; now he has not word to
throw to dog" He loved his wife most dearly
but instead of sitting happily by her side, hour

A Sacred Melody.

If yon bright stars which gem the night
BE each a blissful dwelling sphere,
Where kindred spirits rc-unitc
Whom death hath torn asunder here,
How sweet it were Mt once to die,
And leave this blighted orb afar--
Mix soul with soul, TO cleaye the sky,
And soar away from star to star.
But OH how dark, how drear, how lone
Would seem the brightest world of bliss,
II, wandering through each radiant one,
We failed TO find the loved of thisl
If there no more the ties should twine
Which deaths cold hand alone can sever,
All then these stars In mockcry shine,
More hateful as they shine forever.
IL cannot bel-cach hope and fear
That brights the eye or clouds the brow,
Proclaims there is a happier sphere
Than this bleak world that holds us now
There Is voice which sorrow hears,
When heaviest weighs life's CALLING chain
'Tis Heaven that whispers ''dry thy tears
The pure in heart shall meet againn

tain inquired what he was doing there.
Have you seen Captain Perry" was the
interrogative response
Don't know him; and can't tell what that
has to do with your being in my engine-room,"
replied the captain angrily.
/" Hold on, that's just what was getting at
You see Capt Perry asked me to take drink,

Perry was putting in some extras on one toe

says he, See here, stranger, you must leave
Says l, what must leave fur? Says he,
You're making too much noise Says l, sPve
been in bigger crowds than this, and made more
noise, and didn't leave, nuther.' With that he
tuck me by the nap of the neck, and the seat OF

LADY, knew she was a lady by remark she
made. Says she, Young man, reckon you'll
go home with me- Politeness wouldn't let me
refuse, and SO / went. I'd been in the house
but n minute, when heard considerable of
knocking at the door. know'd the chap wanted
to get in, whoever he was or he wouldn't have
kept up such tremendous racket. By and by
says voice, 'Ef you don't open, I'll bust in the
door. And so he did; l put on a bold face,
and says l. Stranger, does this woman belong
to youg' Says he, She does 'Then,' says
], she's lady, think, from all that have
seen of her.
with that he came to me with a pistol in
one hand and bowie knife in the other, and
being little pressed for room, dumped through
the window, leaving the bigger portion of my
