looked perplexed, and replied, Il do not know,
| sir, about the other paths; the old man never
used to talk to me but of one.' And 1 felt
ashamed of my question, as l said within my
self, soh happy child, to know as yet but of
one path; and happy teacher, to have so shar-
ed the innocency of childhood as to have spo-
ken to her but of one p
Presently, however, she continued, as though
she observed my confusion. But sir, he
said there were flowers which grow by the
wayside. When the wind blows softly upon
them they perfume the air: and their fragrance
is very sweet and pleasant to those who pass
them by; but if we stop to gather them, then
they become magic flowers. aud keep chang
ing into thorns. And do you know, sir, why
| it is so?'
| Not exactly replied; 4 should like you
| to explain it to me-
| because, SIR she said, swhen We gather
them. we stoop down, and turn oul eyes to-
wards the earth, instead of gazing upward up
on the clear, blue sky
But, Annie,' observed, you have not yet
| told me what are the flowers which we gather,
or the thorns on which we tread
sThe thorns,' she replied, sare the trials and
Affections which God sends us; the flowers, are
the pleasures and amusements which we make
| choice offor ourselves
Then, ANNIE I said, sthe children who
gather the magic flowers are those who follow
their own will, while those who tread upon
the magic thorns are such as submit them
selves quietly to the will of God.'
Her countenance became grave, and l saw
| that she already guessed my meaning. l
| thought her mind was now sufficiently pre-
| pared to allow me to apply directly to her own
case the old mans allegory: and it seemed as
though his spirit were resting upon me while
I did so, and l used almost unconcicusy the
language of metaphor.
sAnnie,' I continued, "a very sharp and
piercing thorn was but yesterday placed in
your path. Your foot is young and tender,
| and do not wonder that you should shrink
from treading upon it, She trembled vio-
lently at this direct allusion to her grief, and
yet looked anxiously in my face, as though
she wished me to say more. My own voice
began to falter, and 1 could only add, But,
believe me, your kind friend did not deceive
you; the thorn of affiiction lies on the path
homewards; and if you have but courage to
walk quietly on, there is none that with grea-
ter certainty will change into flower. Go,
Annie, and awaken the soft music, and you
will be cheered by the whispering wind

He who will not forgive must possess the heart

What weary life is mine
Wasting the precious midnight oil
In leader. and column, and line !.

Oh why was the newspaper made,
Or why was the editor born?
Toll, toll, toll,

Whose are the trophies we achieve,
And for whom are the laurels won2

Of every party fray:
To share the toll, and only to get
Abuse and neglect for pay.

To bake the bread and press the cheese

To sit on three legged stool,
While others have hair stuffed seats;
To prepare the hash and cook up the stew,
But never to taste meats,
Toll, toll, toll
As tho constant drop on a stone,

Wears away body and bone.

Though the orator bully and brawl,
