A Tame Butterfly.

One cold, bleak November morning, when
the sky, the air, aud all nature wore that sui
len and responding look SO peculiar to our
climate at that season, lady, who for the
first time had risen from bed of sickness,
went into an adjoihiug apartment, where she
perceived gay and beautiful butterfly in the
window. Astonished to finding this creature
in so uncongeal situation she watched its
movements and operations. AS the sun came
out for a bright brief space, it fu;tered joy
ously about the window, and impaired to the
sick room an air of cheerulness and hope.
Toward evening, however, the tiny creature
dropped its wings; the lady then placed it in a
glass tumber on the mantelpiece. During
the night hard frost came on, and the room
was in consequence very cold. In the NOR
ming the butterfly lay in the bottom of the
tnmber, apparently dead. The invalid grie-
we'd that her gentle companion Of the previous
day should so soon perish, made some effort
to restore its fragile existence. She put it on
her own warm hand, and, breathing upon it,
perceived it give signs of returning anima-
ton; she then oacc more placed it in its glass
house on the rug before the fire. Soon the
elegant little insect spread out its many
colored wings, and few to the window where
the sun was shining brightly. By-and-by the
sun retired and the window-panes getting cold
the creature sank down on the carpet again,
apparently lifeless. The same meanes were
used to restore animation, and with tho same
success This alienation of life and death
went on for many days, till at last the CRATE
) full little thing became quite tame, and seemed
to be acquainted with its benelactress. when
she went to the window and held out her
finger, it would, of it own accord, hop upon
it; sometimes it would settle for an hour at
time upon her hand Or neck, when she was
reading or writing Its food consisted OF
honey, drop of which the lady would put
upon her hand, when the butterfly wduld un-
e curl It's sucker, and gradually sip itup; then
+. it uaually slipped up drop of water in the
@ same way. The feeding took place only once
in three or four days. In this manner its ex-
istence was prolonged through the whole win
$ ter, and part of the following spring. AS 1T
y approached the end of its career its wings be-
e came quite transparent, and its spirits appa-
r rently detected. 1t would rest quietly In its
4" crystal palace eveu when the sun was WOO
S ing it to come out and at last, one morning
: in April, it was found quite dead.

l stood by that stream where the wild roses grew.
In the green bloom of SUMNER when Nature looked new
And thought Of the time that roamel there with you,
In the long-happy years of our love-
We were poor; bat the pearl Of affection was ours,
And we loved the glad world with It's suabeam and showers
For life waysiie of fountains and flowers,
In the long-happy years Of our love.
Now, far from thy presence, wanler, and dream
OF the raptues that persisted with loves morning geam
And day is more lonely than night used to
In the ong-happy years of our love;
For miss thy affection, the rose, and the tream;
That murmured its tune by the moons mellow-beam.
All! pleasure real, and life bright dream,
In the ons-happy years Of our 1--we.
There are isles in LIES ocean cannot forget
Till the light of its sun in the b.ow has set
And our spirit tura with glance Of regret
To thelong-happy Of our love;
For dreamed of tn pleasure anl feared not the
That time DER the scenes of lhe future can throw
And we hopedor the days that We neve may know,
In the long happy years If our love.
As the exile looks back from the waves Of the deepf
To the blue-fading hills where his iorcathers sleep,
Oh thus, when the waves Of hs present shall sweep
Der the long-happy years Of our loys,-
Will souls from the FUTURE look backward through tears
To that where splendor Of youth disappears
And weep DER the graves of those tiae5uried years,
The long-happy years Of ourlove.
