and the miller goes to Londsn and pays
it for some articles in shop, where Col.

"All the other syrips are made Of su.

The squills were got, and our hero
requested to pour for himself-and he
did so, taking boun,iful quantity, say
one-ihirc OF glass, in order to get his

The heroine being asked how she
would prefer hers. raised herself to the

The Kings Shilling.
BY DINAH MARIA MULoCK.


Little Fanny was merry, laughing
eyed lassie of some eight or nine years
old, whose childish figure was as well
known as The town clock in the popu-
l,aa streets Of the market town where
she Dwell, and her clear, gladstone voice
as recognizable as the tones of the church
| bell.
As she was well known, SO was she
well loved and esteemed. No maiden
of her years could have more friends
than Fanny. From that awful dignita-
ry, the beadle, who was wont 10 give
her palronixing pulls of the hair when
ever she came in his way, down TO the
surly nas,iff which KEEP, guard over old
Daniel Wrigns's timber yard. and al
ways wagged his tail at the little girls
approach, and wriggled his large body
abou, in manner which was thought
sufficiently expressive OF his satisfac-
tion. vastly undignifed for an animal OF
his size, years and condition; from the
highes, 10 the lowest, everybody aud ey-
erything liked Fanny.
Perhaps she had SO many friends be-
cause she was utterly destitute of natur-
al protectors. She was not exactly a
founding, but approached very nearly 10
that condition. Seven years before, a
poor and sickly woman. with young
child in her arms, came to Bridge. End,
and took up her abode in room in one
of its humblest cottages. She con,ived
70 earn little by doing needlework; bu,
one day, while on her way to her en-
rr!eyers, she fell down in fi,, and was
carried home by two stou. workmen from
the timber yard. One of these men
brought his wife to see her, and tend 10
her, but all was in vain; TWO days after
wards she died. blessing her new friends
with her last breath, because .hev prom
ised 10 project and cherish her child for
her.
So little Fanny became one Of the al
ready numerous family Of John and
Nancy Brightwell, sharing alike with
seven bouncing boys aud rosy girls,
bread and butter. as well as chaslise-
n en,s. But truth to tell. the latter fell
least frequently to Fanny's portion, fol
she was a good and obedient child. and
as Nancy often observed to her neigh
bors, she was real treasure to hel
adopted parents. She carried Bright.
wells dinner to the timber yard far more
carefully than either Jane or Ellen did
and moreover. she already sewed so nice
that Nancy actually entrusted to her the
greater portion Of the manufacture Of hel
husbands shirts.
Wha, was very wonderful, too, al.
though held up as model 10 the before.
named Jane and Ellen, Fanny was re
gardcd with affection by both Of .hem.-
But, after all. there was no marvel in
,his-,he lille girl was so cheerful, 81
loving. so willing to perform little servi

the secret. We all love those most wht
love themselves least.
Nothing more was known of Fanny''
origin than have related. Her mo,he

MY FRIENDS.
BY MATILDA.


Oh they are precious to my heart,
My chosen friends, the few
Who guard me in affections eye,
Who blame and bless me too;
Whose hearts keep echoing fondly back
In leves eternal tone,
The joys, the hopes, the thoughts the
fears,
That tremble in my own.
To meet their sweet confding smiles,
Bright with affections dew,
To feel that am with the meek,
The pure in heart, the true,
To look into their earnest eyes,
Where thoughts the brightest dwell
An angels harp, an angels tongue,
Alone such bliss may tell.
And oh when absent how / love
To call to mind the past;
To count DER every word they spoke
Before we parted last;
To gather up each look and tone
And number every smile.
Till am lost amid the gems
That CLEAN on menory's isle.
My friends, they are not many, yet
know their hearts are true,
All sweeter than the praise of all
Is FRIEsEsHIP FROM THE FEW!
I'de rather live in kindred hearts,
To glory quite unknown,
Than hold nation in command,
And fill friendless throne.
And cen if some should turn aside;
And change as friends have done,
They should not perish from my heart;
Oh no, not one, not one
Love is too mighty in my soul
To wear oblivion's pail;
And il had a thousand hearts
I'de love, ay, with them all.
