She stood beside the alter when she was
but sixteen. She was in love; her destiny
rested on a creature as delicate, and who
had known as little of tbs world herself
She looked lovely as she pronounced the
vow. Think of a vow from auburn hair,
eyes. and pouting lips, only sixteen years
old
'She stood by the wash-tub when her
twenty fifth birthday arrived. The hair,
the lips, the eyes were not calculated to ex
cite the heart. Five cross young ones were
about the house crying-some breaking
things and one urging .the necessity of an
immediate supply of food. She stopped in
despair and sat down, and tears tr:ckled
down her once plump and ruddy cheek.
Alas! Nancy, early marriage are not the
lodge. Better enjoy youth at home. aud
hold lovers at proper distance until you
have music, limb, and heart enough to face
a frowning world and family. II chap
really cares for you, he can wait for two or
three years, make presents. take you to
concerts, and so on until the time comes.
Early marriage and early cabbages are ten
der productions.'

When after some little time he made his
appearance, his eyes were greeted by the
sight Of his horse. surrounded by the entire
household, each contributing to render him
some assistance. A quart of warm ale was
given by one, another rubbed his neck and
chest with spirits, third dried his glossy
hide with warm flannel, and others patted
his neck or caressed his nose and face. The
Doctor came and took the head of his beast
against his breast, and great, warm tears
rushed up from his heart, as the long, grace.

John, my boy, and gave you a blow!' and
the words ended in low wailrg groan.-
Men uncovered their h eads and turn ed their
faces from him, and at length led him in

ing revealed to him the dreadful danger he
had escaped, from the sagacity of his beast,
and again did he grieve for the blow he had
dealt him, when nobly he was putting
forth more than human power.

A BEAUTIFUL IDEA.-In the mountains
of Tyrol it is the custom of the women and
children to come out when it is bed time
and sing their national songs until they hear
their husbands, fathers, aud brothers answer
them from the hills on their re turn home
On the shores Of the Adriatic such custom
prevails. There tho wives Of the fsherm en-
come down about sunset and sing melody.
After singing the first stanzas they listen
awhile for an answering melody from off the
waters. aud continue to sing and listen till
the we'll known voices comes borne on the
waters, telling that the lost one is almost
home How sweet to the weary fisherman,
as the shadows gather around him, must be
the song OF the low ed ones at hone, that
sing to cheer him; and how they must
strengthen and tighten the links that bind
together these humble dweilers BY the sea!
Truly it is among the lowly in this life that
wo find some of the m ost beautiful customs
in practice.
There is story that was told by deacon
at a Maine Sunday school, as he was IL
lustrating some point of Scripture: "Child
fen," said he, "you all know that 1 went to
the Legislature last year. Well, the first
day l got to Augusta l took dinner at a
tavern, and right beside me at the table sat
a brother member from one of the back
towns that had never taken dinner at
tavern before in his life. Now right before
his plate was a dish of peppers. and he kept
looking and looking at them, and finally, as
the waters were mighty slow bringing on
the things, he up with his fork and in less
than no time souzed on large one, and
rammed the whole of it into his mouth; the
tears came into his eyes soon, and he hardly
knew what to do. At lass, when he could
stand il no longer. he spit the pepper into
his hands, and layiag it down by the side of
his plate, exclaimed, with voice that set
the whole table in roar, 'Jist lay thar and
cool .''

Can the Absent be Forgotten.

Can the absent be forgotten?
Can their memories ever die7
Where they loved to be remembered,
As shadow on the skys
Can the early ties that bound us,
Like the morning dreams depart?
Forbid it Feav'n! for then will cease
All truthfulness of heart.
Can the absent be forgotten,
Though their silence we regret?
No Lethe springs from this fair earth,
By which we could forget.
There is something in the memory
OF those we've lov'd and lost,
Upholds Loves bark DER Times vast sea
However tempest-tost!.
Can the absent be forgottcn'
Can the lips that we have kiss'd-
The hands that we have press'd in ours,
Be lost, and not be miss'd2
Can the heart that throbb'd to our hearts throb-
The cheek that sought our breast,
AS the swallow, wearied from afar,
Seeks its own chosen nest!
Can all these be forgotten
AS 4 footprint the sand,
The dew upon the hawthorn leaf,
We brush off with our hand?
Oh! no, there is faith in love,
Whose impulses pure,
That, like tn eternal mountains, God
Created to endure!
