WHAT IS TO BE DONE WITH
OUR CHARLEY!
BY HARRIET BEEcHER STOWE.

Yes--Ihat is the question, The fact
is, there seems to be no place in heaven
above, or earth beneath, exactly safe
and suitable, except the bed. While he
is asleep there our souls have rest-we
know where he Is and what he is about,
and sleep is gracious state; but then
he wakes W brightand early, and begins
footing, pounding, hammering, singing,
meddiins and asking questions; in short,
overturnins the peace Of society general
ly for about thirteen hours out of every
twenty four.
Everybody wants to know what to do
with him-everybody is quite sure that
he cant stay where they are. The cook
cant have him in the kitchen, where he
intests the pantry to get flour to make
paste for his kites, or melt lard in the
new saucepan. If he goes into the
wood-shed, he is sure to pull the wood
pile down upon his head. fhe be sent
up into the garrct, you think for while
that you have ttled the problem, till
you find what boundless field for ac-
tlvity is at once opened, amid all the
packages, boxes, bags, barrels, and cast
off rubbish there. Old let;ors, newspa-
pers, trunks Of miscellaneous contents,
are all rummaged, and the very reign OF
chaos and old night is instituted. He
sees endless capacities in all, and he is
always hammering something, Or knock.
ing something apart, or saving, or plan
ing, or drawing boxes and barrels in all
directions to build cities or lay railroad
tracks, till evcrybody's head aches quite
down to the lower floor, and everybody
declares that Charley must be kept out
of the garret.
Then YOU send Charley to school, and

$I5O A YEARIN ADVANCE.

With one who was mother to him
in days that are passed. said the king
smilins-as, having mounted, he lifted
the cup to his lips and began to quaf
the liquor.
But at sign from the queen, who
stood by his stirrup, Gunthrum drew
forth his keen. short two-edged sword,
and drove it into the hapless kings back
who utterad cry of pain.
Wretch y he cried, not mother, but
murderess ! you have slain me- And,
spurring his horse, he had already cross,
ed the drawbridge, when he fell dead
and was dragged some distance, at tie
stirrup of the alarmed animal.
Traced by the blood, shed by the
wound and bruises of the young king,
his servants found him stark and still
enough-a ''scrry sight" as they say,
in that terrible play wherein crowned
king is murdered in the 'mirk' at mid.
night; and with tears. and lament,
and sincere mournings buried him at
Wareham; and the love his people bore
MIN SURROUNDED MIN with an 'OuoT OF
sanctity,' canonizing him as the Martyr,
which left many a tradition of mira
cles performed at his shrine for many a
monkish year after the atrocous tragedy
had planted the son of Elflida upon the
throne.
The latter compensation was that Eth.
elred turned out lazy fdim cant, and OBJ. e.

Elfrida, haunted with remorse, built
shrines, made pilgrimages, performed
penances. and the like-very uselessly-
for her peace of mind. While Gunthrum
the Dane, in revenge for her having
broke the conditions and promises. oaths
and contracts entered into with him, en-
tered into league and conspiracy with
his own countrymen, aud SO paved the
way for the advent of King Canutc.
And truly there might have been a
worse man; but as this belongs not to
Corfe Castle, we here conclude our
chronicle.

lum and ore which. if denied, he may
make for himself in the street.
OF all devices for Charley which we
have, a few shelves which he may digni-
fy with the name of d cabinet is one Of
the best. He picks up shells and peb-
b,es and stones, all odds and ends, moth
ing comes amiss; and if you give him
pair of scissors and little gum, there is
no end to the labels he will paste on,and
the hours he may innccen'ly spend sort
ing and arranging.
a bottle OF liquid gum is an invalua-
ble resource for various purposes, nor
must you mind though he varnish his
nose and fingers and clothes. (which he
will do Of course if he does nothing
worse. A cheap paint.box, and some
engrarings to color, is another; and if
you will give him some real paint and
putty to paint a. putty his boats and
cars, he is a made nan.
All these make trouble-to be sure
they do-but Charley as to make trouble,
that is the nature of the institution; you
are only to choose between safe and
wholesome trouble, and the trouble that
comes at last like a whirlwind. God
bless the little fellow. and send us all
grace to know what to do with him.

YOU CAN CONQUER IF YOU WILL.
by ANDREW DOWNING.

by ANDREW DOWNING.
Rugged toiler, son of labor,
Battler in lifc's fierce, dark fray,
De undaunted, oh my brother,
Cast all gloomy fears away.
Life is but vast arena,
But mighty contest ring,
Where all true and earnest action
Will gloriou. guerdon bring.
Only those who're strong and dauntlcss--
Those who boldly do and dare
May at last obtain the victory
And the wreath of glory wear.
Wealth and station, fame and honor
Are the treasures you may gan---
Are the bright AMI dazzling prizes
Strewn around the contest plain.
Cast away the dreamy shackles
Binding down tho soul and mind;
Labor, labor in inaction
Strength, new strength you'll never find
As the streamct groweth broader,
Running downward to the sea,
So will labor make you stronger,
Give you manly dignity.
Train your powers to do your bidding
TIL they're true as subtle Steel
Then will men, your weaker brothers,
Own the influence they feel.
Then will love, aud grace, and beauty
Gladly in your presence wait;
While a world repeats the praises
OF the truly brave and great.
oh be free, he strors, and dauntlcss,
Be in earnest truth maa;
In each high and worthy movement
Keeping ever in the van.
There's a dignity in labor
There's God-like power within
'Ei cry man, that will cnsRe
Him the prize he seeks to win.
Never weary. never iaiter,
Hoping, toiling, battling still,
Noble brother, aud remember
You can conquer if you will.

Now, some few years before his c;x-

who not only lost his life, but also his
wife the king was air 'ady a wi lower,

Edward the MARTYR.
In the thirty-third year CT his age. and
the sixteenth of his reign, Edgar, who
wa. peaceable, pious and licentious died.
and left Edward, his son. heir to the
crewn by his will; but he left his widow
Elfrida, who, we know, had no desire
to Surrender the sweets of sovereignty,

also had a son, ,Ethclrcd, four years youns-

whom the impcrious woman destined for

Consequently, the seed which the
mcnkish Edgar had so4n SO lavishly was

less terrible in the garncring. that he
was dead and in his grave ere the tragic
hour came which was to ayenge his un-
