were followed by a misguided elopement. The
still unwcdded pair fed to this land, and for a
time lived in comfort and even luxury. But, alas.
the romance was exhausted when she became q
mother.
On the same night, when the first faint cry of
the infant was heard, the unnatural father forsook
them both, and from that hour she had neither seen
or heard from him. Pcnniless, friondlcss, home
less, with her first returning strength she set forth
with her baby on her painful pilgrimage. Weary
and footsore, she staggered along, day after dag,
over the wild roads of the West-the only aim of
her journey being to reach the sea coast, where
she hoped to beg a passage home to her father.
Poor p~rodigall there were fifteen hundred long
miles between her and the Atlantic, and yet her
energy was unbroken. She felt that if she could
but reach her father, the only friend she had on
earth, all would be forgiven. So she struggled on
day after day, bearing her infant on her bosom,
stopping seldom, and only for q brief rest.
Careful as she had been of her precious burden,
the child evidently was dying when she entered a
humble tavern on a prairie in Illinois, where the
scene of my story occurred. 1t had doubtless
drawn the poison of death instead Of the nour:sh-
ment of life from its mothers breast; and the
excessive heat of tho sun, which poured down
upon them as they passed across the shadeless
prairie, had completed the work. Even as she
ended her Narrative, the poor thing shivered and
groafed family one or two painful gasps, then n
slight quivering of the lips, and it was dead, dead
in its mothers arms!
Then | saw the perfect exhibition of human
agony. She uttered no words, but despair spoke
with a thousand tongues from every feature of her
countcnance. 1t was more than she could endure.
Her hands relaxed their hold, and the corpse would
have fallen to the ground had it not been caught
by one of the bystanders. She turned as pale as
death, and as rigid as marble, and the next mo-
ment she too lay stretched before us. Her heart
had literally broken in the violence of her anguish,
and the stream of blooo that issued from her beau
tiful lips plainly told us that all efforts for restora-
ton would be useless. A physician came, but she
was beyond all his skill. The poor wanderer was
at rest-and, may l be forgiven, but the doctors
announcement that he could do nothing, sounded
pleasantly in my cars. 1t was best that she died
thus,
As they lifted her corpse TO bear it to a room,
there fell from her kosom a locket of gold. AT
that moment one of the company-a pale young
man, who had been for some days an inmate of
the inn, and whose quiet and sorrowful demeanor
had enveloped him in mystery, sprang forward and
grasped the locket. Touching a spring, it flew
open, disclosing-what the others never knew
but the young man leaped wildly towards the
corpse, and casting himself upon it, shrieked, rath-
er than said, My sister! poor sister !"
y y
And there, far out on that beautiful prairie,
where the flowers of Heavens own planting encir-
cled and overspread her lonely grave, they buried
her and her child.

THE VOICE OF THE GRASS,

Here | come creeping, creeping everywhere,
BY the Justly roadside,
On the sunny hillside,
Close by the noisy brook,
In every ready nook,
/ come creeping, creeping everywhere,
Here I come creeping, smiling everywhere,
All around the open door,
Where sit the aged poor,
Pre- where the childen play,
In the bright merry May,
Icome creeping, creeping everywhere.
Here l come creeping, creeping everywhere;
In the noisy city street,
My pleasant face you'll meet,
Cheering the sick at heart,
Toiling his busy part.
Silently creeping, creeping everywhere.
Here come creeping, creeping everywhere,
You cannot see me coming,
Nor hear my low sweet h~umming;
For ia the starry night,
And the glad morning light,
come quietly creeping everywhere,

NOT A FANCY SKETCH.
ny JULIAN CRAME1-

1t was a pitiful story, The poor creature, who
had walked twenty miles that day, in the heat of
July sun, could scarcely speak from very fatigue:
and, when she had ended her sad tale, there was
scarcely a dry eye ia the whole company, albeit
the bar-room OF the village inn was crowded with
sturdy men to whom tears were novel. Her baby
-ao sweet an infant Us l ever saw-lay snetonless
on her breast, and though the mother knew it not.
1t never would move again save in the agonies of
death
She was nc common beggar. There was a dig

CONE from the barrens of the Old Dominion!
Come from the empire of the whip and chain!
Come to the battle of renewed Opinion,
Reused from the slumber where it long has lain!
The soil is wasting, for the slave is master,
Ruling by terror in his owners breast,
And blind devotion to the chain still faster
Hastens the virgin soil to needed rest.
Come from the Dismal Swamp of slavish terror!
Come from the fields where tolls the signing slave,
Come to the battle of the Truth with Error,
While in our prime we dig Oppressioh's grave
Freedom points onward with a glorious bearing.
And bids the nation to u splendid noon,
And as she nerves US to a holy daring,
She gives the earnest Of her richest boon!
Come from the borders of the far savannah
Come from the everglades Of hopeless doom!
Come where the Freeman with a loud hcsannah
Shouts in exemption from the despot's gloom.
The pulse is beating with u new emotion
The arm is lifted in an effort strong
Our hearts are throbbing like the throb of ocean,
With vows undying at the bloody Wrong.
Come from the cane-6elds where the lasi, grows
longer!
Come from the cabin Of the wrctched thingi
Come from the region where tho bond grows
stronger,
And life's red blood from bleeding hearts they
wiring!
Come from the slaye-mart where the human chattel
Buries his love, and dearest ties are spurned
Come to the Freeman's now amending battle,
For holder teachings in the Right are learned.
Come from the Senate hall and dull convention
Come from the pulpit and the crowded bar;
We take the challenge for the long contention,
And grid our armor for a c~easeless war!
Come from the waters of the Alabama
Come on, o builders of our nations deomi
We take the challenge; for the bloody drama
Must have an end, and Freedom ELL its room.
Como On then, Spoilers OF the weak and lowly!
Come with your purposes Of Crime and Wrong
The North, awakened with an ardor holy,
Vows with a newer hope and vision strong,
We have been shaken from our trusting slumbers.
Now watch we will, with weapons true and bright
God gave the victory to Truths fervid members!
God give the victory to Truth and righ.!

SONG OF THE OLD FRENCH WAR.
By JOHN O. WHITTIER.

A SONG OF TIE OLD FRENCH WA.
By JOHN O. WHITTIER.
Robe Rawlin, frosts were falling,
When the rangers horn was calling,
Through the woods to Canada
Gone the winters sleet and showing,
Gone the Spring-timo's bud and blowing,
Gone the summers harvest-mowing,
And again the fields are gray;
Yet away, he's away;
Faint and fainter hope is growing,
In the hearts that mourn his stay.
Martha Mason, Martha Mason,
Prithee tell us what's the reason
That you NOPE at home to-day;
Surely smiling is not SHINING;
Leave ycur quilting, leave your spinning;
If your heart is never gay3
Come away, come away!
Never yet did sad beginning
Make the end of life a play !"
Overbcnding, till she's blending
With the faxcn skein she's tending,
Pale brown ~tressoss smoothed away
From her face of patient sorrow,
Sits she, seeking but to borrow,
From the trembling hope of morrow,
Solacc for the weary day.
Go your way, laugh and play;
Unto him who heeds the sparrow
And the lilly, let me pray"
"With our rally rings tho valley
Join us I" cried the blue-eyed Nelly;
"Join u" cried the laughing May;
"To the beach we all are going,
And, to save the task of rowing,
West by north the wind is blowing,
Blowing briskly down the bay,
Come away, come away!
Time and tide are swiftly flowing,
Let us take them while we may,
"Neyer tell US that you'll fail us,
Where the purple bcach-plum mellows
On the bluffs SO wild and gray.
Hasten, for the oars are falling;
Hark, our merry mates are calling;
Time it is that we were all in,
Singing tideward down the hayw
"Nay, nay, let me stay;
Sore and sad for Robbie Rawlin,
Is my heart" she said, "to-day !"
"Vain your calling for Rob Rawlin,
Some red squaw his moose-moat's broiling,
Or some French lass, singing gay
Just forget as he's forgetting;
What's the use of always fretting!
If some stars must needs be setting,
Others rise as good as theyW
cease I pray; go your wayt"
Martha cries, her eyelids wetting;
Foul and false tho words you say !"
"Martha Mason, hear to r%eason,l
Prithee put q kinder face on !"
"Cease to vex me-" did she say.
"Spake you true instead Of lying,
If l knew the pines were signing
Ger his grave, and wild birds crying,
/, as now, would say you nay.
But away, far away,
Turns my heart, forever trying
Some new hope for each new day.
when the shadows hide the meadows,
And the sunsets golden ladders
Climb the twilight's walls of gray,
From the window of my dreaming
| can see his frelock cleaning,
And his smile of welcome beaming
Brightly on the homeward way;
But away, swift away,
Glides the fond delusiye seeming,
And / kneel again to pray"
Look up, Martha! Worn and Swarthy,
Glowed 4 face of manhood worthy.
"Robie !"-"Martha !"-all they saw,
Der went wheel and reel together,
Little cared the owner whittier;
Heart Of lead is heart Of feather,
Noon of night is golden day!
Come away, come away;
When true lovers meet each other,
Why should pryingiilers stay'
