The Little Cup of Tears.

We found the following North German
legand in "Tborpe's Yule-tide Stories" one
of Bohn's Antiquarian Series. 1t Is too
beautiful to remain in the sole keeping of
antiquarians:
sThere was once mother and child,
and the mother loved this her only child
with her whole heart, and thought she
could not live without it; but the Almighty
sent great sickness among children, which
seized this little one, who lay on its sick
bed, even to death. Three days and three
nights the mother watched and wept, and
prayed by the side of her darling child;
but it died. The mother, now left alone
in the wide world, gave way to the most
violent and unspeakable grief; she ate moth
ing and drank nothing, and wept, wept,
wept three long days and three long nights
without ceasing, calling constantly upon
her child. The third night, as she thus
sat overcome with suffering in the place
where her child had died, her eyes bathed
in tears, and faint from grief, the door soft
ly opened, and the mother started, for be-
fore her stood her departed child. 1t had
become a heavenly angel, and smiled sweet
ly as innocence, and was beautiful like the
blessed. 1t had in its hand small cup
that was almost running over, so full twas.
And the child spoke: 20 dearest moth
er, weep no more for me; the angel Of
mourning has collected in this little cup
the tears which you have shed for me. If
for me YOU shed but one tear more, it will
overflow, and shall have no more rest in
the grave, and no joy in heaven. There
fore, o dearest mother, weep no more for
your child; for it is well and happy, and
angels are its companions 1t then van
ished.
The mother shed no more tears, that
she might not disturb her child's rest in the
grave and its JOY in heaven. For the sake
of her infants happiness, she controlled the
anguish of her heart. So strong and self
sacrificing is mether's love-"

Yankee Homespun.

"When l lived in Maine" said Uncle
Ezra, "I helped to break up new piece
of ground; We got the wood off in the
winter, aud early in the spring begun to
ploughing ont. 1t was so consumed rocky
that we had 10 get forty yoke of oxen to
one plow, we did, faith, and held that
pillow more'n week-I thought l should
die. 1t e'enamost killed me, l VOW
Why, one day l was holdin,' and the plow
hit stump which measured just nine feet
and a half through it-hard and sound
white oak. The plow split it, and l was
going straight through the stump, when 1
happened to think it might snap together
again, so threw my feet out, and no
sooner done than it snapped together, tax
ing a smart hold on the seat of my panta-
looms. Of course / was tight, but | held
on to the plow handles, and though the
teamsters did all they could, that team of
eighty oxen couldn't tear my pantaloons,
nor cause me to let go my grip. At last,
though, after letting the cattle breathe,
they gave another strong pull all together,
and the old stump came out about the
quickest. 1t had monstrous long roots,
too, let me tell you. My wife made the
cloth for them pantaloons, and l hain't
wore any other kind since"
The only reply to that was, II should
have thought it would have come hard on
your suspenders."

SINCLAIR PREsENTMENt.-L Thurs
day was to have been the day for the eel
ebration of the nuptials of Miss Hannah
c., a lady Of superior refinement and
ability, of the vicinity of Baltimore, and
Mr.. V B, a gentleman of reput-
ed ability as a gentlemen, scholar and poet
The invitations had been gotten up in fine
gilt, and sent to the several friends, invit-
ing them to the marriage. On the Tues
day preceding the appointed day, the bride
remarked to her intended that something
seemed to tell her she would never become
the bride of her choice; that she would
soon wed the realities of eternity. The
groom replied to her with levity, to dispel
the gloom; but on the following day,
Wednesday, she felt so indisposed as to
take her bed, from which time her strength
and faculties began seemingly to wane,
till Thursday morning at 10 O'Clock
the hour appointed for the nuptials-
she breathed her last, without having evin-
ced the slightest bodily pain from the firss
hour of her illness.

AVery Hungry Crowd.

The Bread or Fight loafers of New 7 ork
have about bawled themselves out. Their
clamor for work is in great part CANNON.
At their Tompkins Square demonstration,
on Friday last, a woman, named Mrs.
Runke, addressed them. Among other
things, she advised them to work for redu-
ced wages, but was met with storm Of
negatives. The scene is thus reported in
the Herald:
Mrs. RuNKE-I have also been among
the boss workingmen and merchants to
seek employment for you, but they have
nothing for you to do; neither have they
the money with which to employ you if
they wished, as they feel the distress Of the
present time quite as much as you do.
would therefore suggest to you that you
offer your services to all that can employ
you at anything, for half price, rather than
remain lille.
VoIcEs-No, no; we will never work
for half price. We won't cut down wages
if we have no work at all. We want our
full prices. (Applause.
SPEAKER-I think it would be far bet
ter for you to take what you can get than
to do nothing, particularly as it is so hard
to get employment at any thing now.
MANY VoIcEs-No, We won't. No
never.
SrEAkER-Very well; you must be your
own judges of that; for of course | only
came here TO advise you.
These people cannot be very badly off
when they talk in this style.
After the meeting adjourned, the mob
attacked couple of bakers wagons, rob
bing them Of their loves. With the bread
they pelted each other and the passers-by
as if the loaves were snow balls. These
bread destroyers are the "hungry' men
the precious persons who, according to
Mayor Wood, are those who "produce ev-
erytbing and get nothing"
Some of this bread or blood infection
has found its way to Chicago, and would
be Mayors are tanning and blowing it, like
Mayor Wood, for political objects at the
municipal election next spring. Measure
them in season that they will take nothing
but disappointment by their notion

A Mothers Grave.

Eearth has some sacred spots, where
We feel like loosiDg the shoes from our
feet, and treading with reverence where
common words of social converse seem
rude, and friendships hands have fingered
in each other, where VOWS have been plight
ed, prayers offered, and tears of parting
shed. Oh, how thoughts hover around
such places and travel through unmeasured
space, to visit them. But of all the spots
on this green earth none is so sacred as
that where rests, waiting the resurrection,
those whom we have loved and cherished
our brothers, or our children. Hence,
in all ages, the better of mankind have
chosen and loved the burial places of the
dead; and on these spots they have loved
to wander at eventide and mediate. But
Of all places, even among the charnel houses
of the dead, none is so sacred asaa mothers
grave.
There sleeps the nurse of our infancy
the guide of our youth-the counsellor of
our ripper years-our friend when others
deserted us; she whose heart was a stran-
ger to everything but love, and who could
always find excuses for US when we could
find none for ourselves. There she sleeps,
and we love the very earth for her sake
With sentiments like these turned aside
from the gaieties of life t. the narrow habi-
tations of the dead. l wandered among
those who commenced life with me in hope.
Here distinctions are now forgotten; at
least by the slumberers around me. l saw
the rich and the great, who scorned the
poor, and shnnned them as if infected with
the plague, quietly sleeping by their side.

More Secession,

The attempt recently made at Rich
mond, BY the Southern Secessionists of the
New School Presbyterian Church, 10 or
ganize pro-slavery church, does not seem
to work very well. 1t was the proposition
Of the Rossites to consolidate all the "bol-
ters" from the action of the General As
sembly held in this city last summer, into
a church, which should put paddock OF
eternal silence upon the lips of every one
of its members so far as discussion of the
moral evils of the ''institutiou" was con-
cerned; bu it seems they cannot agree
among themselves. The Synod of Mis-
sour, numbering four Presbyteries and fif-
seven churches, recently held session
.and after lengthy discussion upon the
action of the Southerners at Richmond, n
nally resolved to form itself into an i"de'
pendent body C2epeidnd LeddeT.
