but not without doing some good IN the
world.
Just ten years ago this month, one frosty
morning, there walked irto that village
a little boy, looking very tired and desc
late. His garments were old, but neatly
patched; his hands and face were clean,
and his hair smoothly combed withal.
there was about him a most attractive air
Of decent poverty
So thought Dr. A as be drew near the
lad, who had seated himself upon stone
opposite his gate.
What are you thinking about, my lit
tie man - he kindly asked.
The boy started, stared at the doctor
with his great brown eyes, as much as to
say, can it be that such as you take any
interest in me then the tears began to
ricklc over his brJnzed cheeks, and fell
upon his patched garments.
The d.ctor was moved. He patted
the boy kindly on his head, and again
asked what he was thinking of. The
child seemed reassured, and, despite his
choking soDs, exclaimed:
II was thinking, if God would only
open way for me to become great and
good like YOU, how might help my dear
mother, who is working her life out to
get bread for her children" :"
The doctor himself now brushed tear
from his eye, and softly said, still keep:
ing his hand upon the boys head" Good
you can certainly become; great too in
virtue and all other greatness God is
able to add thereto Take heart, my son
act if you would BE-
"Oh, sir, if you would only help me,
exclaimed the lad, springing up and con
fronting his new found friend with glow
ing face and sparkling eyes.
The graceful attitude of the child, the
seeming frmness of his purpose turned
the scale with the doctor 81 do not need

aud give you start; may God help you
to do the rest You may be my chore
boy ! will board, clothe. and teach YOU
till you can do better No thanks, lad
but take my horse there to the stable, and
tend him carefully
The boy silently obeyed, and his bene-
factor turned awav. The heart of both
were full of gratitude-the child for hi,
new found home, aud its donors for the
rich assurance that he was but doing his
Makers bidding.
Neither the boy nor lis patron had ev
er reason to regret the decision of that
morning The one proved kind and
considerate master, the other careful,
diligeLt servant. His evenings the boy
eagerly spent in study, and quickly mas
tered all the branches taught in district
schoals. Here he might have stopped,

How They Did It.

They were sitting side by side,
And he sighed and then sht sighed.
Said he "My .arlng idol ?"
And he idled. and then she idled.
"You are creations belle"
Anu she beloved, and then he beloved
"On my soul there's such n weight"
And he waited and then she waited.
"Your hand l ask, go bold I've grown"
And he groaned and then she groaned.
"And you shall have your private gig"
And she giggled, and then he giggled.
Said she, "My dearest Luke"
And he looked and then she looked.
''Ill have thee if thou wilt"
And she wilted, and then he wilted.

Gen. Cameron has new gone out OF office,

Always Teach Something, and
but One Thing at "a Time.

"Children who have the habit of list
ening to words without understanding
them, vawn and writhe with manifest
symptoms of disgust, whenever they are
compelled to hear sounds which convey
no ideas to their minds. All supernu-
merary words should be avoided III cult
waiting the power of attention.
"A few years ago, a gentleman brought
two Esauimax to Lcndon. He wished to
amuse. and at the same time to astonlsh
them, with the magni6eehce of the me-
tropolis. For this purpose, after having
equipped them like English gentlemen,
be took them out one morning, to walk
through the streets of London. They
walked several hours in silence they ex-
pressed neither pleasure nor admiration
at anything they saw. When their walk
was ended they appeared unoommonly
melancholy and stupifed. As soon as
tLey got home, they sat down, with her
elbows upon their knees, and hid their
faces between their hands. The only
words they could be brought TO utter
were Too much smoke-too much noise
too much houscs-too much men-too
much every thing
"Some people who attend public lee
lures On natural philosophy, with the ez-
peclation of being much amused and in-
structed, 90 home with feelings similar to
those of the poor ESquimaux they feel
that they have had too much of every
thing. The lecturer has not had time 10
explain his terms, nor to repeat them till
they are distinct in the nemory of his au-
dience. With children, every mode OF
Instruction must be hurtful, which ia.
tigucs attention; therefore a skllful In
structor will, as much as possible, avoid
the manner of teaching, to which tie
public lecturer is in some degree com-
PEELED by his situation, ".--Naira Edge

THE YOUNG WIDOW.

She is modest, but not bashful
Free and easy, but not bold
Like an apple-ripe and mellow;
Not too young and not too old.
Half inviting, half repulsing
Now advancing. and now shy;
There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature,
She is schooled in all the arts;
She has taken the diploma
As the mistress Of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile;
Oh. a maid is sometimes charming,
But the widow ull the whilei
Are You sad? how very serious
VIII her handsome" face become,
Are you angry? she is wretched,
Lonely. friendless, fearful, dumb;
Are you mirthful? how her laughter,
Silver sounding, will ring out;
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
AS the angler dees the trout.
You old widowers of fifty,
Who have grown so bold and wise,
Young Americans Of twenty
With the love- locks in yonr eyes,
You may practice all your lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But | know a little widow
Who could win and fool you all.
