LITTLE PEOPLE.

LITTLE PEOPLE.
dreary place would be the earth,
Were there no little people in II:
The song Of life would lose its mirth.
Were there no children to begin It.
No little FORMS like buds to grow,
And mako the admiring heart surrender;
No little hands on breast and brow,
To keep the thrilling love.eords tender.
No babe within our arms to leap,
No little feet toward slumbsr tending;
No little knee In prayer to bend,
Or little lips the sweet words blending.
What would the ladies' do for work,
Were there mol pants nor jackets tearing,
No tiny dresses to embroider1
No cradle for their watchful carlnRi
No rosy boys at wlntry morn,
With satchel to the school-house hasting7
No merry shoutsas home they rush;
No precious morsel for their tasting.
Tall, grave, grown people at the door,
Tall, grave, grown people at the table;
The men Of business all intent,
The danes lugubrious as they're able.
The sterner souls would get moro storm,
Unfeeling natures more inhuman,
And man to stole coldness turn,
And woman would be less than woman.
For in that cline toward which we reach,
Through Times mysterious, dim unfolding,
The little ones, with cherub emile,
Are still our Fathers face beholdinR,
So sald.His voice in whom we trust,

From Peterson's Magazine for August,
Preserved ApricotS, Peaches, and P'umS
IN Brandy-Gather your fruit before
it is quite ripe; prick them with a
pin on each side, put them into stew
pan full of fresh spring water, and
stew them gently until you can pass 4
pin with facility to the stone Of the
fruit, when take them from the pan
and put them to drain on a seive.
Whilst draining, prepare a syrup,
which, when the fruit is nicely arrang-
ed in a tureen, should be thrown on
it boiling hot, and so left for twenty
four hours, when the fruit is again left
TO drain, and the syrup boiled for one
hour, and poured boiling hot over the
fruit once more. On the third day ar
range the fruit in the preserving pots
and boil the syrup to a proper consis-
tency. When cold, mix it with bran
dy, in the proportion OF two thirds sy-
rap to one-third brandy, aud pour it
over the iruit.

Then they had Q sumptuous dinner, lost
to Mr.. Kennard by his punctual completion
