THE nIAIDEg,s PRAYER.

She rose from her delicious sleep,
And put away her soft brown hair,
And in a tone as low and deep
AS loves first whisper, breathed prayer
Her snow-white hands together pressed,
Her blue eyes sheltered in the lid,
The folded linen on her breast,
just swelling with the charms it hid,
And, from her long and flowing dress,
Escaped bare and tiny foot,
Whose steps upon the earth did press,
Like new snowflake, soft and mute;
And then from slumbers, soft and warm,
Like young spirit fresh from heaven,
She bowed that light and matchless form,
And hutably prayed to16e forgiven.
Oh, God if souls rnsoiled as these
Need daily mercy from thy throne;
If she upon her Bonded knees,
Our holiest and purest one;
She with a face SO clear and bright,
We deem her some stray child of light;
If she, with those soft eyes in tears,
Day after day, in her young years,
Must kneel and pray for grace from thee,
What far, far deeper need have we;
How hardly, if she win not heaven,
Will our wild errors be forgivenI

A good story is afoat that citizen Of Mad
Springs. Cal. could find nothing sufficiently
superb in St. Louis to pass at Mud springs
he was saying almost constantly that every
thing was very we'll, but it wouldn't pass at
Mud Springs At length he was introduced
into the family of rich merchant, who had a
daughter inst nineteen years old, the young
lady admired, nay. loved the Californian,
and the merchant thought of iastigating
marriage. He took the Californian aside,
and said: well. sir, L an man OF busi-
ness, and judge you are. Now, sir. what
do you think of my dsughter?' The interrog
atory momentarily startled the gentleman
from Mud Springs, but he arose above the
agitation. ard was himself again, as he re-
piled: We'll old man, your girls q suorteT,
