Vow have heard, perhaps, oi the clerk
who had faithfully served Stephen GiFArd
from boyhood to manhood On the
twenty first anniversary ofhis birthday
he went to his master aud told him his
time was up, and he certainly expected
important promotion In the merchants
service; but Stephen Girard said to him
"Very well now go aud learn trade"
"What trade, sr!'
"Good barrels and butts must be in de.
mand while you live Go and learn the
cooper's trade, and when you have made
perfect barrel, bring it to me. y
The young man went away and learned
the trade, and in time brought to bis old
master splendid barrel ofhis own make.
Grard examined it, and gave the msker
$4,000 Tor it and then said to him
Nov, sir, want you in my counting
room but henceforth you viii net be dc.

rard. Let what will come, you have
good trade always in reserve.
The young man saw the wisdom and
understood.
Years ago when the middle aged men
of to day were boys, Horace Greeley
wrote:

The Lone Grave at COrinth.

The bright May sunshine sparkles
Upon peaceful scene,
Where thoughtful hands. and loving,
Have brough. their offerings green;
Each flover-decked grave before me,
In fragrant beauty lies,
But lonely grave at Corinth
Comes up before my eyes.
Who watches DER that lone bed,
so precious unto me?
Though only holding dust of what
Was once so fair to see.
Does some kind hand of stranger,
Fer place flow'ret there?
Or do the dews of heaven
Alone an offering bear?
Does the blue violet spring there,
And bloom above the sod,
Seen only by the wild birds.
And the watchful eye of God?
DO the sweet songsters waken
Their cheerful mathis by,
And twitter out their vespers,
In leafy branches nigh?
Oh, lonely grave, so precious!
Would could thither bear
One fragrant floral tribute,
To place upon it there,
Amidst its lowly verdurc;
And hallow with my tears,
The spot which in its bosom
Suck sacred treasure bears.
