ONLY TRIFLE.-"That's righ,,' said
to my friend SImpkins, the baker, as the
sickly looking widow of Harry Watkins
went out of his shop door with loaf o
bread which he had given her ''tha,'s
right, Simpkins; ] an glad you are helping
the poor creature, for she has hard time
Of it since Harry died, and her own health
failed her."
"Hard enough, sir, hard enough; and
am glad to help her, though what give her
don't cost much-on7y triRe sir :"
"How often does she come?''
'"Only three times week. told her
to come oflener, if she needed TO, but she
says three loaves are plenty for her and
her little one, with what she gets by sew
ing"
"And have you any more such customers,
Simpkins ~
Only two or three, sir.''
"Only two or three; why it must be quite
a tax upon your profits -
20 no, not SO much as you may suppose;
altogether it amounts to only a trife"
could not but smile as my friend re-
pealed these words; but after | left HIM, !
fell 10 thinking how much good he is doing
with "onzy triale." He supplies three or
four families with the bread they eat from
day to day; and though the actual cost for
a year shows but small sum in dollars
and cents, the benefit conferred is by no
means small one. A sixpence to a man
who has plenty "to eat and drink, and
wherewilhaI TO be clothed" is nothing, bu,
is something to one on the verge of star
vaion. And we know not how much cnaA

THE TEMPTER AND THE TEMPTED

T. HEADLY.
1t was morning. bright, cool, glorious
morning in antumn-after .he tsF{lpl66e Seams AIMS
of Or the sun were gliding the tops of the
trees, which formed great forest lying
within sight of the American encampment
below Princeton. The disastrous result Of
that memorable conflict had we'll nigh crush
ed the hopes of the braves, colonis,s and the
ommander-in-c himself was dispiriled
and heart-s,ricken.
Hundreds of his brave companions in
arms had bitten the dust in that ill-fa,ed
frav; many Of the best officers had been cut
down; the energies of his spar'an-band
were crippled, winter was approaching, and
the future filled indeed with gloomy pros
poets. The soldiers were indeed wIlhou,
shoes; scarcely decent tent was left with
the army; the ground was frozen and as
the men were forced over it, their bare feet
were exposed, and many ruelul cash had
caused bloody foot print to be left behind
them.
But on that lovely and bright morning
within The edge of that broad forest, there
sal an aged royalls', whose sympaIhies had
laierly inclined towards the American in.
lefes,s, bu, whose personal veal had until
now induced him to pursue an inactivity
neutrality between the two parties. And
vellhis man had son in Washington's camp
a mere boy in years, who had taken his mus
ket and Joined the American forces some
months previously. The father had learned
of the defeat of The colonial army, he knew
they had been forced to retreat, and he came
to the neighborhood Of The army which hat
halted an hour or two, TO learn if possible
the fate Of his boy.
He dared not approach too abruptly, ant
having reached the wood at last, which lay
between him and the distant camp, he mount,
had view Of The vanqushed, but sill de
te1mined band. who bad comported them
selves SO valianlly, but IIr,le time previous
ly, but who were now Fastening towards
Princeton.
The fathers heart ihrobbed audibly, a
he gazed beyond him at1he remains Of TIT
gallan, army, and questioned if his child wa
there. or whether fate mi ght have numbered
his body among the three hundred nobl
spirits who had been sacrificed but few
hours before on the field of battle. And a
he strained his aged sight far down TOWARD
the camp, white horse suddenly came il
view, and approached, at length, towards th
forest.
The figure which besrode this nobl
animal was commanding and graceful, ant
the old man quickly noted that his loos'
grey coat and chappeau indicated him to b
an American officer. He was at The verg,
Of the forest and turning his steed aside
he secured the animal 10 a tree, and disap
| peared within the confines Of the wood.
} Who could he be; and what was his pur
pose at this hour alone in the dark forest
: This man turned slowly about, and he re
joiced that the intruder did not observe hin
for he could now satisfy bis curiosity.
The s,alwart form, the proud step, TIT
manly face, the solemn movement Of th
stranger greatly interested the watcher, wh'
saw that deep burden weighed upon hi
heart, and as he looked again he saw tlIa
noble form bend low, and OH his knees 'h

Some of our patrons who ere first rate

zuela, as tha, is the land for those who wish
to contract debts, with plenty of time 10
pay them in. For the benef. of this class
of our friends, we announce the important
fact ,ha. the government there allows, by a
late law, man to demand of his creditors
an extension of six years, with an appeal 10
"a Judge in case they refuse, who can extend
the time of payment to nine years. We
imagine we see some of them there-''true

AUTUMN.
Welcome, ye trees, in dying verdure clad,
| Weeping your golden tears on all below
Hail, lovely autumn day, whose aspect sad,
Delights my sight and softens all my woe.
With thoughtful step in lonely woodland path,
l love to mark the years retreating form,
When, sombre as the mournful shades of death,
The suns veil'd rays scarce tell the approach
of morn.
Yes, in these autumn days, when nature dies,
Her glory gone, all beauteous things | sec
The farewell of sIriend, the last two sighs
That watt from dying lips the last sweet smile
So ready from the shore of life to spring,
Weeping for summer days of hope long past,
still look back with envy's poignant sting,
And view departed joys which yet no joys pos
Earth, sun, wales, nature, beautiful and fair,
For you, on deaths dark verge, a tear I'll shed
So lovely is the light, pure the air.
That shines and breathes around the dying head
Yet to the dregs this cup Of life I'll drain;
This mingled cup Of nectar and of gall;
Still, in its depths, all hidden, may remain
One drop of life to compensate for all.
Perchance, all shrouded in futurity,
Some bless, by hope unseen, may descry;
Perchance, some sister soul my soul may see,
To read my spirit with kindred eye
The flower resigns its perfumes to the gale,
Breathing its latent sweetness ere it die;
My soul eXhales in sorrow, like the wall
OF some low song Of mournfu melody

farmer, who, attempting to drive home a
bull, get suddenly hoisted over the fence.
Recovering himself, he saw the animal on

ground. The good old man looked steadi-
