TIE wIFE's REMoNsTRANcE

Oh. love me as you used to ovs,
When this worn heart Of mno
Came like a trembling bird to mako
lis springfield bower with thine.
Ere fading fowers and autumn leaves,
With glittering sadness tell,
o'er many darkend dream to warn,
"Notwisely, but too we'll"
o, love me as you used to love-
My way Is often dark,
And trmpest-clouds thou knows not oi,
Close wildly roundmy bark.
Aud buried meath the warning waves
LIES many heart born flower,
That shed its fragance 'resh and pure
In childhood's rihed bower.
Oh, love me as you used to love
This heart once light and free,
Is numbered now with many things,
And Oft care for thee
That in the busy world of man,
That may forgotten be
VIII n IN the shaded bower Of home
Is all the world to mo
Oh, love me rs you used to love-
Why should the heart gov old,
With all its wealth of feeling still,
The deepest yet untold'-
The strength tbh b.avely battles thro'
Temptations gloomy hour
The love that softly folds its wing
Beside the dropping flower.
Oh, love me as you used to love,
Ere one ungentle word
lIud, with prophetic touch, the heart
With doubt and sorrow stirred.
When hope upon her rainbow wings
Reflected, glad and bright,
Full many joyous osytS come,
But nr'er dal ksomo night.
Oh, love me as you used 10 love,
For soon the treacherous wave
That b,ars our life-boat on Hs breast
Win close upon our grave;
And then II mouruful memory
Will somlmes haunt The spot,
And whisper of loves early ysws,
Neglected or forgot.
Oh, love me ns ou used to love,
And ever love the same
Hard was the struggle in my heart,
TIE willful bird 10 tame;
Then teach 1t not In stranger bowers
It's nesting songs TO sing,
Norplsnt with careless hand barb
Beneath its folded wing.

MISCELLANY.
THE FIRST QUARREL.

Oh man may bear with suffering his he art
Is strong ,hing, and godIike in the grasp
OF pain that wrisgs mortality; but tear
One chord afectiOtt clings to, part one tic
That binds him to woman's delicate love,
And his great spirit yieldeth like a reed
N. P. WILLIS.
TO think he would have said that; in
such tone, too, and | have not been his
wife but six little monthsr- And a deep
er0 shadow drifted over the beautiful face
the small, rosy fingers tossed back
with petulent motion the brown curls
that flowed over the cheeks, and fresh
food of tears poured ffOm the soft blue
eyes. N ...
Those bright, bitter tears; they looked
strangely out of keeping with all the sur
roundings of the young wife. The pale
light of the winter day came.through the
damask curtains, and filed the tastefully
furnished room with Il rosy spring-like
glow. The fire curled with its thousand
bright serpentine tongues up the black
mouth of the chimney; and as Ellen
Howard sat there in its shine, it seemed
as if only happy thoughts could find a
nesting place in heart around which so
many of earth's Blessings clustered.
But that day for the first time a shadow
had driitcd across her married life; it
had originated in some trivial matter, but
the inclination of the wife and the opin-
ion of the husband had been brought in
collision, and after considerable pouting
and an angry remark from Ellen, which
she would the next moment gladly have
recalled. Henry Howard had spoken
peromptorily, almost ansrily to his yovAe
wife and lcF' the house

WASHINGTON LOVED HIS MOTH.


Immediately after the organization of
the present government, Washington re-
paired to Fredericksburg, to pay his hum
Bile duty to his mother, preparatory to his
departure to New York. An affecting
scene ensued The son feelingly remark
ed the ravages torturing disease had made
upon the aged frame of his mother, and
then addressed her: --
"The people, madam, have been pleased, by
the most fattering unanimity, to elect me to
the Chief Magistracy of the United States,
but before can assume the functions of
that Office, / have come to bid you an affec-
tionate farewell. So soon as the public
business, which must necessarily be en-
eountered in arranging new government,
can be disposed of shall hasten to Vir-
ginia and1--here the mother interrupted
him, "you will see me no more, My great
age, and the disease that is fast approach
ing my vitals, warn me that shall not be
long in this world. l trust in God, am
somewhat prepared for better. But go,
George, fulfil the high destinies which
heaven appears to assign you; go my son,
and may that heavens and your mother rs
blessings be with you always"
The President was deeply affected. His
head rested upon the shoulder of his par
ent, whose aged arm feebly yet fondly en-
circled his neck. That brow. on which
fame had wreathed the purest laurel virtue
ever gave to created man, relaxed from its
lofty bearing That look which could have
awed Roman Senate in its Fabrican day
was bent in flial tenderness upon the time
worn features of this venerable matron.
The great man wept. A thousand rec
objections crowded upon his mind as mem
ory tracing scenes log past, carried him
back to his parental mansion and the days
of his youth; and their centre Of attrac-
ton was his mother, whose care, instruc-
ton and discipline had prepared him to
roach the topmast of laudable ambition
yet how were his glories forgotten while he
gazed upon her from whom, wasted by
time and malady, he must soon part to meet
no more. -.j
The matrOn's predictions were true
The disease which.had so long preyed up
on her frame, completed its triumph, anC
she expired at the age of eighty-6ve, con
fding in the promise of immortality Il
the humble believer. f #.

HOW PETER AND PAUL LOOKED

1t is allowable to mention the general
notion of the forms and features of the
two apostles which has been handed down
in tradition, and as represented By early
artists.
Paul is set before us as having the strong
ly marked and prominent features of a
Jew, yet not without some Of the finer lines
indicative of Greek thought His stature
was diminutive, and his body dis6gured by
some lameness or distortion, which may have
provoked the contemptuous expression Of
his enemies. His beard was long and thin
His head was bald. The characteristics Of
his face we're transparent complexion
which yisibly betrayed quick changes of
his feelings; alright grey eye, undcr thiekly
over hung eyebrows; a cheerful and win
ming expression of eountenance, which in
sited the approach and inspired the conf
dence Of strangers. II would be natural
to infer from his continual journeys, and
manual labor, that hS'was possessed OF
