A Broken Homo.

A short time since we left the cherished idol
Of our hearth.circIe in the full promise of both
health and life, ana returned to see him die!-
Our home is defolate, for its purest light has
faded out. Willie is dead!
God how we loved that boy! lie was u
child of more than rare promise-a brave,
beautiful, noble hearted being, and all manhood
in every pulse. His mind was almost mascu
line, and he wrestled with death, with the calnl
patience and judgment Of maturer years.
Would that in the spring time he had gone
to bis long night rest Of death, when the flow :
er and the leaf and tiny blade were bursting
out from their earth sleep to clotbe the fields
in beauty. But it matters not He wandered
not alone through the dark valley, "For Of
such is the Kingdom of Heaven" The warm
sunbeam and rain drop of spring time will deck
the resting place of the little sleeper in smiles.
Little will he heed, however, either sunbeam
or cloud on earth, for there is no winter sha-
dow in the eternal summer sky of bliss.
Blessed hope! that death is not an 'eternal
sleep!" The beautiful tenement of soul of
two summers will minge with its pillow of
earth; but in the silence Of the night time We
shall listen to the trippngs of little feet, and
the lowing whispering of little voice--in the
sweetrustIing of two little angel wings, and
feel the pure touch of tiny palm upon the
feverish cheek. One of the strongest links on
earth is broken, but to bind US closer to Hea-
ven. Gods will be done.
The little playthings are all put away. A
deep tide Outright hoyes has been rolling back
upon the heart. Crushed and broken, we bow
to the storm that has swept our hearth, and
thank God there is better world than this for
the child. .,.....

boy-a long good night.-Cayuga Chief

An Example.

America is not so powerful yet as Spain was
three centuries ago. Spain rose, moreover, as
America has done, through the reign Of free
institutions She fell by entering on course
of policy similar to that which is now proposed
for America. So long as Spain honored labor
and made war only in just cause, so long she
prospered; but when she lent her sword to
wauton conquest, and took to living on tho
spoiIs Of captive nations, she began immediate
ly to decline. 1t is q pregnant warning. A
great law lies at the heart Of Span's decline.
That law is, that if either nations or individu-
ais neglect productive industry, aud seek iu-
stead to shine by unlawful gains, they inevita-
bly, 60 to ruin.

Magnolia Leaves POison-A number of
German emigrants going up the Mississippi
from New Orleans, went on shore at one of the
landings, where the boat stopped to take on
wood, and while there, gathered quantities Of
leaves and flowers from the magnolia trees,
which they took on board, boiled and ate, from
the effects of which one man died and four
others came near dying. They had mistaken
the leaves of the magnolia for cabbages, suppo.
sing that in this fertile country, cabbages grew
wild, and from sixty to seventy feet high, as
does the magnolia on the coast. The leaves Of
the magnolia very much resemble those Of the
cabbage, but are poisonous
