TIE BLACk-EYED hoy.

Two or three years ago, | went into a
town in the Stale of New Hampshire, to
give temperance lecture. There were a
good many persons in the town who drank
intoxicating liquors. But many came to
hear me. and noticed, JUST as l commenc-
ed speaking, a little black eyed boy, just a.
bout seven years old, who came into the
hall, und sat down near the door. He list
ened very a;tentiyely; and when l spoke
of tie cruel treatment of wives and chill
dren from Incorporate men, l saw him
more thaa once take his handkerchief and
wipe away the tears. told them the pledge
would prevent all this, and make them kind
and pleasant; and told the children to sign
it if they would prosper and be happy in
the world This little fellow was the first
to put his name down, and when asked
them who he was, they told me he was
black-eyed Joe, and that his father was one
of the worst drunEards in town.
1t was his custom every morning to min
gle rum and sugar with water, and pass it
around to every one of the children, who
took little, as weH as their father and
mother. He would drink again at eleven
o'clock, at noon-time, at four o'elock, and
at supper time, so that when evening came
he would always be intoxicated, cruel and
revengeful; sometimes he would beat his
wife, and sometimes his children, or shut
them out in cold storms. 1t was this that
made Joseph weep when | told of cruelty
to children, and it was this that induced
him to sign the pledge.
He went home from the meeting and
determined to keep his resolution. TIE
next morning, asusual, the father took out
the brown jug, mixed the pitcher of poison
and handed it to Joseph first. He shook
lis head, and declined takingit.
Drink, joel said his father. -.
81 do not wish any again, sir replied
Joseph.
His father looked at him for moment
and then said, roughly, Did you so tc
that temperance meeting, Joe?
Yes sir, he replied.
Did you sign the pledge?'
! Yes, sir r.
What did you do that for, Joe?'
Because, father, said Joe, hesitatingly,
If ever am man, do not want to be as
, you are
His father blushed, turned pale, stood
confused moment, and then opened the
door and dashed both Jug and pitcher into
pieces, saying:
You shall have father that you won't
be ashamed to be like
From that hour he hasnot ottaken anything
that can intoxicate; and is happy himself
and renders his family happy besides; and
4 l will venture to say that Joseph will have
an answer ready forany one who asks him
What good will it do to sign the pledgeY
Uncle Edward,yo may put my name
I0wn,' said Henry, and thank you for
telling me that story.
So saying,he put on bis skates,and went
upon the ice with a swift motion, to tell
the story of black-cyed Joe to his compan-
ions.
If thou hast fear of those who COM
mand thee, spare those who obey thee.

The poor darling Lofty. 1t took all the
endearments ofa tender husband in the
honey y-moon to keep her from downright
despair. But the days lesson had moi
been lost, and she had determined to have
such nice breakfast as should make up fol
ALL
Morning came; and our young doctor
gallantly offered to assist in getting the
morning repast; but no; Lofty was determ
ed TO do her own work. She mixed hel
cakes according to the learned suggestion,
Of the evening previous. She boiled the
eggs three minutes by the clock. The
coffee was clear-greatest comfort Of ALL
She rang the bell, and sat down in tri
umph.
The Doctor broke bscuit-it was cap.
ital. The egg was just right. Then lie
tasted the colfee-and it came out of his
mouth as soon as it was in. And such a
face! Doctors are not squeamish; young
doctors particularly. They know whatbad
tastes and bad smells are; but this
why Charlel' cried the darling Lofty,
what is the matter with the coffee?'
That is what l would like to know, Lot
ty darling. know you do your best, and
the biscuit and eggs are beautiful; but what
did you put in the cofTee?
why Charlie, you said it must have
some fish skin to settle it; and the only fish
in the house is some herrings, so skinned
tYo of them and put the skin into the cof-
fee? and poor Lofty burst into paroxysm
of tears. But there came sunshine soon
thatmade it all pleasant weather. Lofty
had invited an old school friend to visither
She came soon after breakfast, and as it
happened, her housekeeping education had
not been neglected. She absolutely knew
everything. Mrs. Hale, Miss Leslie, even
Mrs. Glass or Mrs. Rundell could not ex-
Gel her. She was walking cook book,
and lively little treatise on domestic e.
Never was visitor more welcome, and
now the darling Lofty learnt everything
to wash and mend, and bake, and cook ev-
erything;and become the incest little house
keeper extant, while the Doctor, by the aid
of his venerable appearance, and rapid
drivingin the sulky, rode into an exten-
sive practice, and was never tired of boast
ing ofthe excellent cookery of his darling
Lofty.
