Leaving Home.
By EGLANTISE.

The time is swiftly drawing near,
When must bid farewell,
To all the scenes that are SO dear
Within my native dcls.
The brooksidc, where we've often roalncd
In merry, childish glcc,
To gather flowers, and hear the birds.
That sang so ioyously
The meadows, where in happier day,
We've gathered lilies wild;
Sweet roses, too, long the banks.
When | was but Il child.
Our cottage home is sad and lone,
Where once rang laughter gay,
Some dear ones far away now roam,
and some sleep meath the c:1y.
Oh, it is hard to say good bye,
And it ill, the heart with pam:
Long months n:y PASS away ere
Shall greet dear friends again
BE- still, sad hcari, must noi weep,
The parting hour i nigh.
Aud must calm ny heart, and keep
The sad tear from my eye.
The future may show brighter scenes,
ON which We love to gaze;
But hearts can nc'cr forget the CLEANS
OF childhood happy days.
Dear childhoods days of love and truth.
Thy joy I cannot tell;
Sweet hale yon days of hope. and youth,

An Irish Legend.

A writer, speaking of the Castle of
Howth, near Dublin, says: "The steps
to the front door are very grand, extend
ing across the whole front of the build
ing. The wings are covered with ivy
The main entrance used to be left open
during the dinner hour until a very re-
cent date. The origin of the custom is
thus related: About 300 years ago there
lived in the west Of Ireland celebrated
female chieftain named Grace O'Malley,
of Grana Vile. She owned a vast terri
tory and had castles to defend it, and
ships and men. So renowned was she
that Queen Elizabeth invited her to her
court, whittier she went, accompanied by
large retinue, where she doubtless was
Toasted in accordance with her rank. On
her return she was forced to land on the
east coast of Ireland to procure pro-
visions, which had fallen short It hap
pened that she landed at HOwth, and,
walking up to the castle, made known
comply " it'll her wishes at once, telling
her she must wait because the family
were at dinner. Indignant at such treat
ment, she returned to the shore to re-em-
bark. There she saw a little boy play
ing. Whose child is this?' 1t is the
son of the lord of the CASTLE was the
reply. Thereupon she ordered him to be
seized and carried on board her vessel,
and away she sailed to her home in the
West. Here the young Prince was kept
prisoner for some time, but finally
Grana yielded to the petition of the
father and released the boy, on condition
that ever after the door should stand open
during dinner, to welcome all Corners"
