EYERETTS OF GREEN GROVE;
AN ENGLISH STORY.
BY CHARLES DICKENS.

He was the saint of the family, and
the model man of the neighbour Ood.-
There was not charity he did not sub
scribe 10, not a deputation that he did not
entertain and there were hungry fellows
generally, who knew the comforting vir-
tues of his choice Maderia-he founded
Sunday-Schools and chapels-of ease, as
other men would build barns, and he
was the public purse of all the ten par
ishes around. The poor called him a
real gentleman, and the ungodly fine
fellow while the elect looked solemn,
and spoke "of that pious man, Jacob
Everett" through their noses for most
part. No one had an i'll word for him !;
excepting the landlord of the Grapes,
who declared with a mighty oath that
he was the "pest of the place, and
would ruin all Green Grove if he was
left to do as he liked 3" Notwithstanding
this Bacchic judgment, Jacob Everett
was good man; weak, perhaps, but
loveable in his very weakness sincere,
gentle, generous, merciful; puritanical
in principle, but-as his youngest brother
the archdeacon, once said in full vestry,
when Jacob opposed about the penance
of Hannah Brown" sadly latudinarian
in practice &" Jacob, however, went
on his own way, opening wide door to
all sinners closing to a narrow chink
the yawning gates of destruction which
his brother swung back wide enough for
all mankind, saving the small band of
elect to which he and his belonged.
The family was proud of Jacob. He
was an old bachelor and rich and the
Eyeretts - albeit of the richest like
wealth and honored pedigres s. They
were grand people, who practiced hu.
mility in coaches, and establishment in
velvet; who denounced the lusts of the
flesh at state dinner parties, over cham
pagne and pine-apples; but who believed
that eternal punishment was the doom
of all who entered theatre or a ball

YOUR HANDI TAKE IN MINE.
BY GEORGE P. NORRIS

Your hand take in mine, Willie
And fancy I've the art
To read. while gazing in your face.
The records OF your heart:
'Tis Joy an honest man to hHld,
That gem Of modest wo u,
By me more prized than ali me gold
OF all the mines Of earth, Willie,
OF all the mines Of earth.
I've marked your love Of right, Willie,
Your proud disdain of wrong;
know you'd rather aid the weak
Than battle for the strong.
The olden rule-religiOn's stay
With constancy pursue,
Which renders others all that they
Can ever render you, Willie,
Can ever render you
A conscience void Of guile, Willie,
A disposition kind,
A nature, gentle and sincere,
Accomplished and refined,
A mind that was not formed to bow,
An aspiration high.
Are beaming on your thoughtful brow,
And in your cheerful eye, Willie,
And in your cheerful eye
never look at you, Willie,
But with an anxious prayer
That you will ever be to me
What now I'm sure you are.
do not find fault to chide,
A foibie to annoy,
For you are all your fathers pride,
And all your mothers JOY. Willie,
And all your mothers joy.
You're all that could hope, Willie,
And more than deserve;
Your pressure of affection now
feel in every nerve
love you-not for fashions sake.
But for yourself alone;
And this is why your hand take
So fondly in my own, Willie,
So fondly in my own,

PRAIsING COP By SrEAM.-The BEL

pie, Boston, is worked by steam. So we
Yankees are gong to be relieved of the
work of praising God. We have not
even to turn crank to grind out our
praise, but invoke the aid of steam pow
er. What would Fulton say could he
look into the Temple, and see that ths
veritable steam with which he propelled
his bOatup the North River, is employed

THE EMPEROR'S BIRDS NEST.
RY Il. W. LoNGFELLoN

Once the Emperor Charles of Spain,
With his swarthy. grave commanders
forget in what campaign,
Long besieged in mud and rain
Some oldfrontier town Of Flanders.
Up and down the dreary camp,
In great boots Of Spanish leather,
Striding with 4 measured tramp,
These Hidalgos. dull and damp,
Cursed the Frenchmen, cursed the weather.
Thus, as to and fro they went,
Over upland and through hollow,
Giving their impatience vent.
Perched upon the Emperor's tent,
In her nest they spied a swallow.
Yes. ii was a swallows nest,
Built OF clay and hair OF horses
Name or tail, or dragons crest
Found on hedgerows, east or west,
After skirmish of the forces
Then an old Hidalgo said,
As he tEirled his grey moustachio,
ssSure. this swallow overhead
Thinks our Emperor's tent shed,
And our Emperor but a machio'
Hearing his imperial name
Coupled with these words Of malice,
Half in anger, half in shame
Forthwith the great campaigner cams
Slowly from his canvas palace
sLet no hand the bird molest,"
Said he solemnly.. .'nor hurt herr!
Adding then, by way of jest;
s.Golondrino is my guest
,Tis the wife Of some deserter.T
Swift as bow-string speeds shaft
Through the camp was spread the rumor'
And the soldiers, as they quaied
Flemish beer, at dinner, laughed
At the Emperor's pleasant humor'
G ..,h.-,,od aud nm afraid
There the swallow sat and brooded,
Till the constant cannonade
Through the walls breach had made,
And the siege was thus concluded
Then the army, elsewhere bent.
Struck its tent, as If disbanding;
Only not the Emperor's tent
Por he ordered, ere he went-
Very curtly: Leave it standing'
And it stood there all alone,
Loosely tapping, torn and tattered,
Till the brood was iedged and flown,
Singing oe'r those walls Of stone,
That the cannon-shot had shattered
Ihaekio-the Spanish for mule.
