CHAR1TY.-Night kissed the young rose,
and it bent softly to sleep Stars shone,
and pure dew drops hung upon its bos-
ON and watched its sweet slumbers.-
Morning came with its dancidg breezes,
and they whispered to the young rose
and it awoke joyous and smiling. Light.
~ it swung to and fro in all the loveli-
ness of health and youthful innocence
Then came the ardent sun god, sweeping
from the east, and smote the young rose
with its scorching rays, and it tainted.
Deserted, and almost broken, hearted, it
dropped to the dust in its loveliness and
despair. Now the gentle breeze, which
had been gamboling over the sea, push
ing on the home-bound bark, sweeping
over hill and dale-by the neat cottage
and still brook-turning the old mill, fan
ming the brow of disease, and frisking the
curls of innocent childhood, came trip
ping along on her errahd of mercy and
love and when she saw the young rose
she fastened to Kiss it, and fondly bathed
Its head in cool, refreshing showers, and
the young rose revived, and looked, and
smiled in gratitude to the kind breeze,
but she hurried quickly away, singing
throug h the trees. Thus charity, like the
breeze, gathers fragrance from the droop-
ing flowers it refreshes, and unconsciously
reaps reward in the performance of its
office of kindness which steals on the
heart like rich perfume to bless and to
cheer.

How THE DEVIL Losr.-We heard few
days ago an old story told that was as
good as new, and here is the substance
of it. It should be dedicated to delin-
quent subscribers. We have good
many friends who, we hope, will read
it with tears in their eyes
A young man who ardently desired
wealth, was visited by his Satanic majes.
ty, who tempted him to promise his soul
for eternity, if he could be supplied on
this earth with all the money be could
use. The bargain was concluded-tbe
dell was to supply the money, and was at
last to have the soul, unless the young
man could spend more money than the
devil could furnish Years passed away,
the young man IN arried, was extravagant
in his living, speculated widely, lost and
gave away fortunes. and yet his Golfers
were always full. He turned politician,
and bribed his way to power and fame
without reducing his pile of gold. He
became 6I|ibuster, and fitted out ships
and armies, but his banker honored all
his drafts He went to Baton Rouge to
live, and paid the unusual rates of inter
est for all money he borrowed, but though
the devil made a wry face when be came
to pay the bills, yet they were all paid.
One expedient after another failed-tbe
devil counted the time-only two years
that he must wait for the soul, and
Knocked the efforts Of the despairing
man. One more trial was resolved upon
the man started a newspaper. The
devil growled at the bills at the end Of the
first quarter-was saving in six months
melancholy in nine, and finally "broke," "
-" dead broke - at the end of year.
So the newspaper went down, but the
soul was saved.

A PoEr CuREp.-Squizzins, of the Bos

rescue from poetic career. He had
composed, on moonlight night, he says
and sent to the village newspaper, a
beautiful rhapsody to bis sweetheart,
Charity, in which the following verse oc-

not been on speaking terms.
