MISCELLANEOUS READING.
THE STRANGER on THE SILL.

ny T. D. READ.
Between broad fields Of wheat and corn.
L. the lovely home where was born:
The peach tree leans against the wall.
And the woodbne wanders over all:
There is the shaded doorway still
But a strangers foot has crossed the sill.
There is the barn, and, as Of yorc.
can smell the hay from the open door,
And see the busy swallows throng,
And hear the pewces mournful song;
But the stranger comes-oh, painful proof
His sheayes are piled to the heated roof.
There is the orchard--the very trees
That knew my childhood well 70 please
Where / watched the shadowy moments run.
Till my life imbibed more of shade than sun:
The swing from the bough still sweeps the air,
But the strangers children are swinging there
1t bubbles, the shady spring below,
With it, bulrush brook where the hazels grow:
Twas there | found the calamous root.
And watched the minnowS poise aud shoot,
And heard the robin lave his wing
But the strangers bucket is at the spring.
o We. who daily cross the sill.
Step lightly, for l love it still:
And when you crowd the old barn caves,
Then think what countless harvest sheaves
Have passed within that scented door,
To gladden. eyes that are no more!

Judge Wilson, of Philadelphia, is about To
bring forth a new work upon the Conquest of
Mexico. The author takes different view
from Prescott of the reliability of the Monkish
Misunderstanding their accuracy. The
opinions and arguments Of Judge Wilson IN
this connection are endorsed by Hon. Lewis
Cass, who first, in the North American Re
view, pointed out the Inconsistencies and fables
Of the Spanish historians ofthe Conquest, even
before Prescott wrote his history and who, from
his experience of 50 years in investigation
of Indian life, il as capable ofreliable judg-
ment upon the work as any man in the coun.
try.
