The late December afternoon was hastily
gearing away, while clouds of angry meaning
sailed across the dull sky, and the wind swept
over Green Mountains with hoarse wall, por-
tentous cf storm. 1t was in the year lo4o.
In the small parlor of hotel, situated IN the
centre of pleasant mountain village, two
PERSONS were sitting. The one lady, tall,
veil formed, and possessing countenanee OF
melancholy beauty, was seated near window
With her hands clasped aud her needle work
ying idly in her lap, while her dark eyes
we're fixed upon the carpet at hex feet. Her
companion was an intelligent and notebook
.ng youth of nineteen, with dark, curling hair,
and deep blue eyes, now bent eagerly over
arge volume that he held in his hand. For
some time no word had been uttered by the
Two, but, at last, the lady raised her head and
spoke abruptly.
Frederic"
The young man started and glanced up with
look of inquiry. and faint smile crept over
her lips.
Il have few words to say to you" con-
anued the lady. Can you lay aside your
look for few moments 2"
" Certainly, Mrs. Chapelle," ;" was his reply,

The uensive moon. in silent course,
through heavens blue arch pursued its.round;
She beamed on many a blanching corse,
Upon Nontery's battle-ground.
A. walking forth 1 saw maid
Where blee ling warriors PROSTATE lie;
And as among the dead she strayed,
Soft tears of pity dimmed her eye.
If one, perchance, retained his breath,
She gently raised his dropping head,
And then amid the scene Of death
Peace hovered round MS dying bed.
For there a guardian angel stood
A being of aerial form,
Cnmeet to wade tn ensanguined flood,
Unfit 10 brave the battles storm.
Still, still, unscatied, she bore relief;
The bleeding warriors scar she bound
But all ! her ministry was brief,
Grim death another victim found,
For as the booming shots rolled by,
One not unshiftless As the rest,
Drew from her soul its last deep sigh,
Ere st He'd her palpitating breast.

That heart Will never throb again
Which late tale Of pity burned.
Mark how her features still retain
Their native smile though robed in death
A balm that IulIed the warriors pain.
That stemmed for aye the parting breath.
Hid battles roar we took the maid,
Her only dirge the martial drums
Now, now, within the bed she's laid,
Where grief. where sorrow never comes.
S.eep on, sleep on, until that day,
When to the pure heart is given,
crown that never fades away,

which was placed 1T his door, by some wag-
gish neighbor, was in answer to the prayer,
Give Us this day our daily bread was great
ly to be pitied Tor overlooking the use OF tue
means understood in that beautiful petition.
But this extreme Of his belief in Providence
ludicrous as was the light in which 1t caused
him to appear. was wisdom compared with the
notion of such as trust 10 luck That was,
at worst. Perversiou of most consoiing doc
trine Of luck mas no starting point from any
thing but ignorance and folly Of the sorriest
kind-nay, worse than this, from atheism
Itself. For what Is luck but another word
for fate? The man who trusts to the one
trusts to the other, eGdeavor as he may, to
hide the fact from the world and bis own
heart He who blindly trusts to luck chance
fate. or even Providence in the sense above
considered, is a simpleton. Providence
helps him who helps himself Your true
man works as well as prays and shrinks in
stinctiVely, from the very thought Of such
atheism as trusting to luck or chance.
