A LESSON TO A soo1prNe MorHrR

A little girl who had witnessed the
perplexity of her mother on a certain
occasion when her fortitude gave
way under severe trials, said:
Mother does God ever fret and
scold?' -
The query was so abrupt and start
ling it arrested the mothers sattention
almost with a shock.
"Why Lizzie, what makes you
ask that question p
.'Why God is good-you know
you used to call Him the "Good Man. I"
when was little-and ] should like
to know if he ever scoldcd. "
mo, child, no"
"Well, I'm glad he don't; for scold-
ing always makes me feel so bad,
even when I'm in fault / don't think
could love God much if he scolded
megp
The mother felt rebuled before her
simple child. Never had she heard
so forcible lecture on the evils of
scolding. The words of Lizzie sank
deep into her heart, and she turned
away from the innocent face of the
little one to hide the tears that gath
cred in her eyes Children are quick
observers, and Lizzie seeing the effect
Of her words hastoned TO inquire
"Why do you cry, mother. Was ii
naughty for me to ask so many ques-
tions ~ a.ff
.sNo, love, itwas all right. ] was
only thinking how bad was to scold
so much, when my girl could hear
and be troubled by II"
go no, mamma, you are not bad;
you are a good mamma; only / wish
there was not so many bad things to
make you fret and talk like you did
Just now 1t makes mo feel away
from you so far, as if Icould not come
near you, as | can, when You smila
and are kind; and, O, sometimes
fear, | thall be put off so far | never ,
can get back again"
80 Lizzie, don't say that, said the
mother, unable longer 10 repress the
tears that had been struggling in her
eyes. The child wondered what
could so AFFECT It's parent, but instinct
lively feeling It was a case requiring
sympathy, she reached up her little
arms about her mothers neck, and
whispcred:
Mamma, dear, do l make you
cry? Do you love mop hl
40, yes, love YOU more than I
can tell" replied the parent, clnspiu
thelchild to her bosom. And 4 viii
never scold again before my liiils-
sensitive girl .o
sHs0,.I am so glad. / can get so near
toyou when you don't scold; and do
lyop know mother, ! want TO love you
so much"
This. was an effectuai lesson, aud
the mother felt the force Of that pass
age Of Scripture, "Out Of the months
of babes and sucklings have ordain-
cd strength She never scolded
again. ~ e .haN

GUARDIAN ANGELS.
by ANDREW DOWNING.

They are how ring round US ever
On their hidden snowy wings
Coming downward from the presence
Of the holy King Of kings
Making light our heavy burdens,
Quelling passions lawless strife
Plucking thorns from out our pathway,
Cheering hours with sorrows rife
Sweet they smile when we we are joyous
And when ours are griefs and fears
Bow their heads in deepest sorrow,
Shed their unseen, dewy tears.
They are ever waiting, watching
Through the silent hours Of night
Close beside our couch Of slumber--
Guarding US with wakeful sight.
When we wander, blind and sinful,
Far into the ways eff death,
Then they gently strive TO lead US,
Back again to virtues path. f4
II we list to Reason, prompting, a
And to Conscience voice within, "a
These pure beings ne sr viii leave US
Till we're saved from every sin
They will guide us calmly. gently
To ahigher, holier sphere,
To country free from sorrow,
And the ills that pain us here;
To yon bright and blissfhl heaven
Sweet abode Of all the blest!
Where the wicked cease from troubling,
And the weary are at rest

on Third street. The material was
very heavy, and we should suppose
that eight of them would be a. good.
load fora strong man 10 carry. These
garments had been made by a poor
woman for one dollar! But little
more than the price that would be
exacted for carrying away the mate
rials and returning the made up gar
ments, ifa colored porter We're en-
ployed to perform the duty. A poor
woman compelled 10 walk for miles
TO procure this miserable work--tben
TO receive materials for two or three
cloalxs, with an injunction TO make
them well, or make good the dcficien-
cies; to carry the made up garments
in, after toiling over them day and
night-to have every stitch scrutin-
lied by a. heartless Shylock, and all
for a beggarly shilling each. The idea
is terrible. a1fs
We inquired how many OF these
cloaI<s, all their fixtures Of binding,
wadding, bralding, etc, a woman
could make in Il day. We were told
by our informant that if the sewing
woman went TO work at six o'clock in
the morning, and worked until ten
O'Clock at night, she could earn 373
cents, pr0rided she did sclfh0at her din
ner. - -r
There lisa squarc on Third street,
where human health and strength
is taken by wholesale in exchange
for shillings, and when men, or rath-
er animals on two legs, build up for
tunes and bigstorehouses on the prof
its wrung from poor, needy, helpless
women. In the square We refer to,
eight cents are given for making a
shirt and Il shilling is deemed suf-
ficient price for manufacturing gar
mentl and even these beggardly prices
are given so grudgingly and boorish-
ly that the recipient is soon rendered
either callous, or has her heart broken
outright.
The s.Song of the Shirt mas as
terrible asignificance in Philadelphia,
as it has in London. and the poor
sewing woman here can sing, with
Hood,
''oh God that bread should be 50 dear,
And flesh and blood so cheap
These wholesale murderers of wo.
men are beyond the pale Of human
laws; but if they expect ever to reach
Heaven, they have most edifying
share of confident hopefulness."
We will merely add, that, the phil
anthropic, would find much less oc-
casion to contribute TO the support of
she Rosine Association, the Orphans
home, and the Almshouse, if some
means could be devised by which wo-
men could obtain a fair compensation
for their labor.

THE .xYx OF GREY.

Poets have praised the eye Of black,
Aud eulogized the melting blue.
Have laid their fancy on the rack,
To celebrate each varied hue:
But not one single vsrd thsy. say
About the pleasing eycof grey.
I Ike The mid grey sye-the faces
which most loved had eyes Of grey,
And II each glance smIts no blazss.
As those Of black, I know lhai they
Possess charm that can subdue
Hearts that wiihstood both black and blue.
The face 10 fair with eyes sf black
With eyes Of gsy Is ssili more fair,
For what the last In life may lack,
Il made mp By the softer air
Impaired to The lovely faces,
That grey aud blue 90 oissn graces.
The black may pierce ths garer through.
And make the lighisss spirits dance
Our souls may melt before The blue,
o. die away In pleasures trance;
But I win still NY homage pay
To the enchanting eye Of grey.
The eye that kindly beams on ne,
