Mr.. BRADBURY, Editor of the New York
Musical Gazette and review, having recently
lost little daughter, thus touchingy alludes
to the sorrowiul event:
Kittie is gone Where? To heaven. An
angel camo and took her away. She was
lovely chld-gente as little lamb the
pct Of the whole family; the youngest Of
them ALL But she could not stay with us any
longer. She had an angel sister in heaven,
who was waiting for her. The angel sister
was with us only few months, but she has
been in heaven many years, and she must
have loved Kittic, for everybody loved her.
The loveliest flowers are often soonest pluckcd.
| II a little voice swecter and more musical
than others was heard, knew little Kitlic
was near. If my study door was opened SO
gently and slyly that no sound could be heard,
knew Kittie was coming. If, after an hours
quiet play little slim shadow passed me,
and the door opened and shut as no one else
could open and shut it, $50 as not to disturb
papa" knew Kittie was going When, III
the midst of my composing, heard gentle
voice saying Papa, may | stay with you Il
little while T! will be very STILL" [ did not
need to look off my work to assure me that it
was my little lamb. You staid with me too
long Kittie, dear, to leave ME SO suddenly
and you are to still now
You became my little ASSISTANT my home
angel-my youngest and sweetest singing
bird, and miss the little voice that have
so often heard in the adjoining room, catching
up aud echoing little snatchcs of melody as
they were being composed. l miss those sof
and swift kisses. miss the hand that was al
ways first to be placed upon my forehead
to "dtive away the pain" | miss the sound
of those little feet upon the stairs. mis-
the little knock at my bedmoom door in tn
morning, and tho triple goodnight kiss in til
evening. l miss the sweet smiles from thu
sunniest of faces. miss, oh ! how | miss
the torcmoss and the little group who cam
out to meet me at the gate for the first kiss
| do not stoop so low now, Kittie, to give tina
first kiss, l miss you at the table, and at fam
lily worship. | miss your voice in II wan
to be an angcl," for nobody could sing It lik
you. miss you in my rides and walks.
miss you everywhere; but | will try not t
miss you in heaven Papa, we are good, wi
an angel truly come and take us to heaye
when we die?' When the questions was ask
ed how little did / think the angel was
near. But he did "truly" come, and tn
sweet flowers is transplanted to a more gent,
cline. II do wish papa would come home
wait o little while, Kittie, and papa wi
come. The journey is not long. He wi
: soon be "home."

no Gloom at Home.

Above all things, there should be no gloom
in the home The shadows of dark discomfort
and wasting irctfulness should never cross the
threshold, throwing their large, black shapes,
like fuueral pals, over the happy young spir-
its gathered there. IF you will, your home
shall be heaven and every one an angel there.
II you will, you shall sit on throne and be
the presiding household deity. o! faithful
wife, what privileges, what treasures, greater
or purer than thine
And let the husband strive to forget his
cares as he winds around the narrow street
and beholdS the soft light luminng his little
parlor, spreading its precious beams on the
red pave before it. The night is cold and
cherries perhaps, and the December gust
battles with the worn skirts Of his old over
coat, and snatches, with rude hand and
wailing cry, at the rusty hat that has served
him many year. He has been harasscd,
pcrpcxcd, prosecuted. He has borne with
many cruel tone, many cold word, and
nerved himself up to an energy so desperate
that his frame and spirits are weakened and
depressed; and now his limbs ache with wca-
riness; his temples throb with tho pain-beat
caused by too constant application; he
scarcely knows how to meet his vile with
pleasant smile, or sit down cheeriuly to their
little meal, which she has provided with SO
much care.
But the door is opened, the overcoat thrown
hastily off, A sweet voice falls upon his ear,
and the tones are so soft and glad, that hope,
like winged angel, flies right iuto his bosom
and nesles against his heart
The latch is lifted, and the smiling face Of
his wife gives an earnest welcome. The shin
ing hair is smoothed over her fair brow; in
deed she stole coquettish glance at the mir
ror hanging in its narrow frame, just to see
it she looked neat and pretty before she came
out. Her eye beams with love, her dress is
tasteful-and-what? Why! he forgets all
the trials of that long, long day as he folds
her in his arms and imprints u kiss upon her
brow.
A home where gloom is banishod, presided
over by one who has learned to rule herself
and her household, Christianity oh !. he is
thrice consolcd for all bis trials. lie cannot
be unhappy; that sweetest, best, dearest So
lace is his--a cheerful home. DO you wonder
that the man is strengthened anew Tor to-
