Self DenfnI---A Fable about Rat.

Self fDeniaI---A Fable about IL Rat.
There was once grey old rat who
getht red his young ones about him, and
thus addressed them -
All, my dear children, the inffrmities
of age are pressing so heavily upon me.
that | have determined to dedicate the
short remainde; of my days to mortitica-
ton and penance, ii a narrow and lonely
cell which have lately discovered : but
let me not interfere with your enjoyments;
youth is the season for pleasures; be happy
there eore, and only obey my last injuuc-
ton never come near me in my retreat
Bless ye. my chillrcn-bless We all p
With these affecting words, the old rat
wiped his eyes with his tail, and by a
great effort controlling his emotion, tore
himself away.
Several days passed without his being
seen, and at length his youngest daugh-
ter, moved more by flial affection than
by the Gu iosity, which has so uniustly
been charged as the failing of her sex,
stole to his fathers reireat-his cell of pa
thence and modification. 1t was "ScU," +"
indeed for it turned out to be a hole,
made by his own venerable teeth, in an
enormous Cheshire Cheese.
MORAL.
Trust not him who magui6es the disin-
tereStedness of his motives, or enlarges
upon his sacrifices; for, thousand to
one he is either babbling theorist or a
studied hypocrite. 1t is the easiest of all
things to preach action while reposing in
luxurious arm. chair, and to sympathise
with shlverlng poverty, seen through the
wlnders of snug parlor. Hypocrisy
will always make a merit of necessity and,
clothe the veriest selfshness with the
cloak of self denial.

There IS terrible fellow somewhere
ttDown East" who ought not to be per-
mitted to run loose. He threatens to play
the very deuce and break things, in con
sequence of his faithless gal. If he
should happen to put his threat into exc
cution, the Lord have mercy upon u.s.
His first threat is,
I'll gtasp the loud thunder, -e-
Withlightning I'll play,
I'll rend the earth assunder,
And kick it away.
That's attempting considerable for one
man-however, if he has a mind to take
theIresponsibility, and pay damages, let
him smash away-we are not afear d.
He next says:
The rainbow I'll straddle, r
And ride to the moon,
Or in the ocean I'll paddle
With the bowl of aspOOn.
That won't hurt any body. Go ahead,
old chap, we like to encourage lauda-
BILE spirit of adventure:
I'll set fire to the fountain,
And swallow up the rlll,
I'll eat up the mountain,
And be hungry still.
Goodness graciousl is there no way to
appease his wrath and stay his stomach :?
Must we suffer all this because he and his
girl wont have anything to say to each
other at present ? No-never ! Down
with him! down with him, we say.
The rain sholl fail upwards,
The smoke tumble dpwn;
I'll dye the grnss purple,
And paint the skies brown.
Hear that! pretty world this would
be truly, with the rain falling up. the
the smoke tumbling down, the grass dy-
ed purple, and the sky painted brown
We might as we'll live in an old boot. with
a dirty sole for the earth beneath, and
brown paper leather for the heavens above.
The sun FIJI put out,
With the whlrlwin.ls I'll play;
Turn dny into night
And sleep it away.
There is no doubt, he cuts that caper,
the sun will feel as much put om as well
as we shall We leave it to the whirl-
winds to say whether they are to be tri-
fed with or not; and as for his turning
day into night, and sleeping it away, we
would Just as lief he would as motif he
can do it.
I'll fog the young earthquake,
The earth I'll physic,
Volcanoes I'll strangIc,
And choke with the pthisc.
On, ho! he dare not cIinch with an old
he earthquake. and so he threatens to fog
young 'un," of the neuter gender -
Coward! why don't you take one of
your size
The moon | will smother,
With nightmare and wo;
For sport ut each other,
The stars l will throw
Serves 'em exactly right-they have
no business to be out when they ought to
be a-bed.
Tho rocks shall be preachers,
Tho trees dn til, singing;
The clouds shall be teachers,
And the comets go sprcctng.
That's all we'll enough, except getting
the comets upon spree. We don't like
that pretty WELL"
Eli tie up the winds
In u bundle together,
And tickle their ribs
With an ostrich feather.
Oh, crackey now he does it T.! We
didn't think it lay in the gizard of mortal
man to do half so much.
Really, we think such desperate and
dangerous individual ought to be caught,
cast into spiders web, and safely guar
ded by one flea, two mosquitoes, and a
vigiant woodiouse. There is no know
ing what the chap may do.
