THE ORPHAN GIRL.

James Carer was poor, yea, very poor.
Left an orphan at an early age he was cast
upon his own resources, tor friends were
few, and day after day he would set forth
with his pack upon his shoulders 10 dispose
of his goods. To passsr by, the face OF
James would have been merely glanced at,
without thought whether it was handsome
or moi, shut TO close observer OF human
nature, il would have seemed marked with
the traces of beauty. His dress was not in
.he fashion of the day, for poverty had
bounds which he could not pass, but his
garments were nevertheless in state of
neatness- To these who knew James II
was matter of surprise, how, under his
weight of misfortune his heart was SO light
His voice could be heard at night singing
some scraps of old songs /; though his lo:
was humble, q smile was ever on his lips.
His Iife was indeed lonely there were no
voices OF affection to greet him in tones of
fondness, when at night be arrived home
weary and faint !; he had no bosom TO which
to confde his sorrows but there amidst
the loneliness of his humble hut, his years
were passing in dreariness and soTow. It
Is easy sor those who dwell in large houses,
and who are surrounded with every comfort
10 be happy and gay but TO maintain a
light heart amid the gloom and darkness of
poverty is heroism, let Tie world say what
it will.
Ii ~as lovely day in summer, as James
took his pack and wended his was through
The streets Of the city. 1t had been TO him
an unfouanate day, for at every door he
stopped he was met with cold reception,
and the cry OF "want nothing TO day"
With feelings of disapPointment be turn
ed his weary steps homeward, mediiaii.g
on his way of The cold charities of This
world. On passing through miserable al
ley, ffe abode Of The vicious aad The unfor-
tnnate, his ears were saluied with the cries
of poverty, and the blasphsmous epithets
Of crime. There was one lille girl who
strnck his attention by her lender years and
her neaers garments. Whelher she notiss

ga woman may not be an angel though

like spirit clothed with rainbow and
studded with stars. The young man may
behold his admired object on the morrow in
