THE Lesson OF THE Sick RooM.-No
wonder the sick room and the lazaretto have
so often been refuge from the tossings of
intellectual doubt--a place of repose for the
worn and wounded spirit. Here is a duty
about which all creeds and all philosophers
are as one here, at least, the conscience
will not be logged by doubt, the benign in
huence will not be checked by adverse theory;
here you may be lin to act without settling
one preliminary question. To moisten that
sufferers parched lips through the long
night-watches, to bear up the dropping head,
to lift the helpless limbs, to divine the wait
that cannot find utterance beyond the feeble
motion Of the hand or besceching glance of
the eye-these are offices that demand no
self-questioning, no casuistry, no assent to
propositions, no weighing of consequences
Within the four walls where the stir and
glare of the world are shut out, and every
voice subdued-where human being lies
PROSTATE, thrown on the tender mercies of
his fellow, the mortal relation of man to man
is reduced to its utmost clearness and SIM
plcty; bigotry cannot confute it, theory
cannot pervert it, passion, awed into acqu-
escence, can neither pollute nor perturb it,
As we bend over the ck.bcd, all the forces
of onr nature rush toward the channel of
pity, of patience, and OF love, and sweep
down the miserable choking drift of our
quarrels, our debates, our would-be wisdom,
and our clamorous selfish desires: This bless
ing of serene freedom from the opportunities
of opinion lies in all simple direct acts of
mercy, and is one source of that sweet calm
which is often felt by the watcher in the sick
room, even when the duties there are of
hard and terrible kind.-EUiot's Scenes of
Clerical Life.

FATHER AND MorHER.-Some writer en-
balms these two holy names in the following
beautiful thoughts :--"Sweeter praise can
never be than that Of dying parent, as he
blesses the hand that led him from sorrow,
and is even now soothing the cold brow, damp
with the spray of Jordon. And dear the
thoughts as your tears fall upon the sod that
covers the gray-headed father, that you were
very kind and loving to him; and you gave
cheerfuly of your abundance, and never
caused him to feel that you were doing a
charity.
"Never can we repay those ministering
angels we call father and mother. Angels,
though earthly have they ever been, from the
time that Adam and Eve gazcd upon their
first born, as he slept amid roses, while the
tiny fingers, the waxen lids and the cherub
form were all mysterious to them"

The Blue-Bells Of New England,

The roses are a regal troop,
And humble folks the daisies;
But, Blue bells of New Eng land,
To you give my praises;
To you, fair phantoms in the sun,
Whom merry spring discovers,
With blue-birds for your laureates,
And honey bees for lovers.
The south wind breathes, and 10 ye throng
This rugged land of ours;
Meth inks the pale blue clouds Of May
Drop down and turn to flowers;
BY cottage doors, along the roads,
You show your winsome faces,
And, like the spectre lady, haunt
The lonely woodland places!
All night your eyes are closed in sleep,
But open at the dawning;
Such simple faith as yours can see
Gods coming in the morning.
You lead me by your holiness,
TO pleasant ways of duty;
You set my thoughts to melody,
You fill me with your beauty.
And you are like the eyes love,
So modest and so tender,
Just touched with mornings glorious light,
And evenings gentle splendor.
Long may the heavens give you rain,
The sunshine its caresses,
Long may the little grill love
Entwime you in her tiesses.

HUSBANDS AND WIvEs--In the flush and
brilliancy of early married love, the first
faint impressions of the future husband and
wife commence. As lovers, their separate
dispositions we're in state of pleasant an
tagonism; as welded pair, they are pre-
sumcd to be anal gamated, and form an en-
tirety which recognizes mutual interests, ad-
vantages and concessions, as the basis of
their mutual happiness. The husband, then,
even in the dawn of his marital bliss, should
begin to create in his wife's n ind those IA
vorable sensations which are the precursors
Of those more solid ideas which bind woman
to manly that strong intercommunion of
sou which only death can interrupt. This
obligation is equally imperative on the wife,
In the heyday of her husbands love, while
his heart beats responsive to her every wish,
and his mind is lair tablet on which none
but summer thoughts are engraved, she should
begin the study Of his character, so that when
the necessity arises, she may be able to ac-
commodate her own plastic one to it, without
effort or Inconvenience, Indeed, with both
of them this should early be an object of
anxiety, so that gradually there should grow
up between them u conciliatory predsposi-
ton of tone and manner, which, when brought
into roquisition, would appear more habit
than duty. Both husband and wife object
to anything that looks like compusion; they
each turn away from even a duty, when cloth
ed in repelling garments; aud from this it
will be apparent how necessary it is that
the soil of their tempers, and peculiar mental
and moral idosyncrasies, should as early as
practicable be sown only with those seeds
which in after years will yield the sweet
smelling flowers that shed such delicious
perfume over hallowed and long-tried welded
love- '-Ponsonby.

THE RIGHT USE OF THE EYEs.-An Italian
Bishop, who had endured much persecution
with calm, unruiiled temper, was asked how
ne attained such mastery over himself
" By making right use Of my eyes said

whittier am going to live forever. l next
look down upon earth, and consider how
small space Of it will soon be all that | can
occupy or want ] then look around me,

Written for the Green Mountain Freeman.
A Sabbath in the Country.

The stiffness of the Sabbath morn
Falls on my soul like dewy BALM
The hustle of the week is gone,
The remnant left, a holy calm.
The skies put on their purest smile,
The leaves glance out in deeper green,
The birds have ceased their songs awhile,
The beauty now is only seen.
Oh, in a morn like this, when all
Look up in worship, Lord, to thee,
How should our souls in silence fall,
In dust before thy majesty.
For thou hast sent this beauty forth
To glad our eyes a little day,
To lead US from the love of earth,
To that whidh decks thy holy way.
In prayer and faith we come to thee,
Reposing on thy constant care,
With meekness and sincerity
Raising our hearts and voices there.
Let not this day thought of i'll
Come DER our heart to mar our peace,
But lead us toward thy heavenly hill,
Where song and praise shall never cease.

A Wish.

A Wish.
We wish the light and knowledge
Gained by good common sense,
Would just cndow college
For men of high pretence:
We think much would be righted
Which seems quite " out of geer,"
And many heads be lighted
Which are dark lanterns here!
We wish oppression's iron heel
Was forced to yield its power,
And Despot's thrones were made to reel,
And tyrants made to cover.
We wish that Christians would unite,
And take TRUTH for a motto,
And not for creeds so fiercely fight
We surely think they ought to.
