LOVE AND FAME.

A mother watched by the slumbers of her
first born. Bending over the tiny cradle, its
sweet breath swayed the soft curls on her
forehead as she felt their gentle movement
there came TO her soul in overwhelming con-
sciousness Of her responsibility. That little,
puny, helpless thing was TO live forever
She had not thought seriously of the start.
ling fact before, and realized, for the first
time, that the soul of the feeble creature TO
which she had given being, was as deathess
as the God who made the heavens and earth.
Nothing could destroy its everlasting life
it might be blotted from time, but never
from eternity. On her she felt depended its
good or evil, its happiness or misery, in that
endless hereafter. And the mother trembled
as she thought of the magnitude of he. trust;
all, all was in her hands.
As she sa, there looking at the little face
with eyes of mournful tenderness, two voices
assaled her hearing.

I alone can satisfy the cravings of her i'm.

voice added nothing more.
The mother paused. then cried palionale-
ly: "Oh, what is fame 10 woman God Gre

her, Love, for che is yours by birhright!'

CAUSE OF YANKEE EMIGRATION.

When Tom. Corwin was member of the
General Assembly Of Ohio, he brought in
bill for the abolition of public punishment at
the whipping post. He made speech there
on, to which an elderly gentleman replied
somewhat as follows:
"Mr. Speaker, the gentleman is not as old
as am, and has never seen so much of the
practical operation Of the system of punish
ment which he desires 10 abolish. When
lived in Connecticut, if a fellow stole horse,
or cut up any other rustics, we used 10 tie
him right up and give HIM a real good thrash
in, and he always cleared righ. out, and we
never saw no more of him. It's the best
way Of getting rid of rcgues that ever was
tried, and without expense to the State"
Corwin rose TO reply "Mr. Speaker, I
have often been puzzled to account for the
vast emigration from Connecticut 10 the
West; bue the gentleman last up has ex-
planned il 10 my entire satisfaction"
The bill passed without further discussion.

BEAUTIFUL

II cannot be that earth is mans abiding
place. II cannot be that our life is cast up
by the ocean Of eternity to float upon it's
waves and sink into nolhingness. Else Why
is it that the glorious aspirations which leap
like angels from the temple Of our hearts are
forever wandering about unsatisfedl Why is
it that the rainbow and the clouds came over
with beauty that is not Of ear.h and pass
off 10 leave US TO muse on their faded love-
liness Why is it that the stars who hold
festival around the midnight throne. are set
above the grasp of our limited faculties,
forever mocking Us with their unapproaoha-
BILE glorya And, finally, why is il that the
bright forms of human beauty are presented
% our view and then taken from us, leaving
the thousand streams oil our affections to flow
into Alpine torrents /! We are born for a
higher destiny than that Of earth. 's
There is realm where rainbows never
fade, where the stars win be out before ne
like isleis that siumber on The ocean, and
where the beings that pass before Us like
shadows will stay in our possession forever.
