The Fox, the Goat and the Carrots.

IOSelner alOnS lne main ROAD. Al
ter having advanced a few yards,
they saw a bag lying at the side Of
the hedge.
81 wonder what there may be in
that bag" said the goat.
CPL see," said the fox; and put.
ting his mouth to the string with
which the bag was tied, he bit it
through in a moment. Then seiz-
ing the bottom of the bag with his
teeth, he shook it, and the most
splendid carrots rolled out.
"Those are for me-" said the fox,
."for | opened the bag"
"You shan't touch them" answer
ed the goat, "else I'll batter you
4ith.-my-ahorns until your ribs
crack
The fox looked at the large horns
Of the goat and showed his teeth.
The goat seeing the fox's teeth,
thought within himself II don't
like those sharp fellows" And the
fox thought, 81 don't believe my
ribs would stand those horns"
So they kept standing over the
carrots, and looked at each other,
but neither had the courage to
tonch the spoil. .. ..ra
After q pause the fox said:
"What's the use of our standing
herel Let us see which ofus is the
stronger. Yonder are two heaps
Of stones. Take you one and Tll
take the other; he who first throws
down his heap will have the car
rots.'
avery well,' said the goat; so
they went each to his heap.
The goat placed himself on his
hind legs, and knocked with his
horns till the ground rebounded,
but the heap kept immovable.
"You don't hit hard enough"
said the fox. "Take a run at it,
The goat went a few steps back,
and ran at the heap as violently as
he could. Crack! crack! and both
his horns fell to the ground.
When the fox saw this, he COM
menced dancing on his hind legs.
"Ah, my dear fellow cried he,
the carrots are now for me-
Not YETI said the goat; you
haven't thrown down your heap,
and If you touch the carrots be-
fore then, I'll fight you with these
stumps that are left on my head"
The fox looked at the stumps,
and now thought; 'One of them is
very sharp; he might rip up my
Sides -.. s... .
Very well,' he said, 'pll throw
down my heap it's trife to me-
The fox began digging round
with his forefeet till there was a
large hole in the ground. The heap
tottered and fell; but, helloa! it
tell on the fox, and broke his hind
leg. .... .. .,.->
There they stood looking at each
other with a sad CONFERENCE.-The
one with broken horns and the
other with a broken leg.
Jump at the carrots said the
goat, maliciously. i now leave
them to YOU .....
4 can't sighed the fox; my leg
pains me too much. You may
take them
Very well1 said the goat and
ran toward the bag. But, oh dear!
there was neither bag nor carrots,
for during their quarrel a peasant
had passed by and picked up both.
'Alas! cried the goat. 'What
fools we are! Had we divided the
treasure in peace, l should have
saved my horns, you your leg, and
each of us would have had enough
of carrots.1De Liefde.

The EMPTY CRADLE.---There is u
whole volume of poetry in the fol
loving little sketch, which We find
in the last number of Miss BARRIERS
Weekly: .. a-.
We met John on the stairs. He
was carrying an old cradle to be
slowed away among what he term
ed "plunder" in the lumber.room.
One rocker was gone, and the wick
er work of the sides broken; ii was
and old willowy affair but we could
not refrain from casting a sad look
into ITS empty depths. ~ v - q
"Gonep we said dreamly, "all
gone!" What golden heads were
once pillOwed here! heads on which
the curls grew moist in slumber,
and the checks and lips flushed to
the hue of rose leaves: When
sleep broke, the silken fringed lids
opened heavily from the slumber.
Gus eyes; smiles fitted like sun
beams over the face, the white fist
was thrust into the mouth, and
when mamma lifted the muslin and
peeped in to see if baby was awake
what cooling and growing was heard.
The little feet began to kick, out of
pure delight and kicked on until
both of the tiny red shoes were
landed at the foot of the cradle.
Where are those heads nowg Some
that were embrowned by vigorous
manhood, are sleeping on battle
fields some are bleached with time
and cares; and the feet have grown
sore and weary on the rough paths
of life.
Perhaps som 8 little one, once ten
derly rocked here, is sleeping in
the coffin.-0ver it grow hearts
ease, and tine vigorous box, and
white candytuft,an the starry jas,
samine. The blue bird flutters its
bright wings through the willow
boughs, and the cool summer wind
whispers to the green leaves and
grass blades on the grave. What
of? perhaps of, its immortality.
Sleep on, little dreamless one! 'sOt
such is the Kingdom Of Heaven" .

6uILDINe AssocIATIoN.-Th The meeting
of our citizens at Jefferson Hall" on Friday
night, to initiate the preliminary organisation
ofa Building Association" was most de.
clded success. The professional, mercantile
and mechanical interests were fully repre-
sented, and seemed to enter with commenda-
bic earnestness and zeal in the object pro-
posed. The proceedings of the meeting will
be found in detail in another column, and as
the organization is designed to embrace men,
bers from all parts of the county, will receive,
We hope, general perusal. WM. Il TRAv-
FRS, Esq, fully elueidatcd the operations of
the plan, as established in other places, and
BY arithmetical calculation, demonstrated the
