My poor, poor wife—my darling babies—must they freeze and starve ! Oh God ! it is tau much !' And with tears gushing from his eyes, the pale man buried. his head in the scanty cuvering'and groaned aloud. It was no wonder that he was out of heart on that cold, dark December day. At hest, he had hard struggle to get food, and fur the past six months the struggle had been almost desperate, for his wife had not been able to assist hint in the least, being confined to her bed with a slow wasting disease. Ills little daughter Maria, a pretty child of twelve, kept the 000 room tidy, and herself and little brot h ers like wax. By the aid of her mother's whispered directions she managed to do up the weekly washing and ironing. ' My little sunbeam,' the father fondly culled her, while her mother would say, in her low, sweet tones, our angel.' One night the young housekeeper wai ted until it was pitch dark for her father to come Ironic to his frugal supper. and then, with - fearful forebodings at her heart undressed the little boys and put them to bed, and tied on her hood and cloak to go for him. A crowd met her at the very threshold. With a wild cry, she rushed towards the inanimate form they carried upon a board. It was her father brought home to them with a broken leg. A week passed since this misfor tune. By the sale of their ,few pieces of furniture, the wolf had been kept front the door. But now nothintr v' remained save the coarse bed on which the distress ed ones slept. No coal for the little grate, no tea lot the feve.ish lips ; no crusts for the famished children ! W hafThould be done ? It was a question little Marie asked herself again and again us they lay there watching the few pale sunbeams that struggled' throughA he Window. And she asked it oftener after she had risen and dressed herself and brothers, and smoothed the two beds. Bread th...y must have that, day. They were all faint even now, and the boys , ilamored fur their break fast. Suddenly a bright thought came to the little daughter. She remembered having seen in the coffee houses, young girls, no talkr than she, wailing upon the custo mers. Perhaps they'would try her. 'lf they only would,' she murmured softly. am handy, quick and patient, and I would try so hard to oblige. I am pretty too, she might truly have added, had there been a spark of vanity -in her- heart; for she was a sweet child, with a brow like a sunny snowdrift, and eyes like the spring violets that' nestle in the woodland. I Will trY, at least, and see what I can do ,' and atter watching a moment the weary sleep of her parents, she whispered to the little" boysthat she was going out to get some bread for -them, and hdrried aWay. She did go to the baker's but the piti ful story•failed to touch his :hard heart, and there were tears on her cold cheeks as she, turned away. *, Even' if she %Mid secure „a place,- she - could 'hope -for- no wages till Saturday, and there were four weary days betw,een this and that,- Bread would. be too .late if she waited till then. What should she ? *asked herself the question -with a quivering lip Never before bad their poverty driven them to that strait, and-it was hard, even A F I A2M2 ifOR, VAREEEATe asaazig. the picture of that wretched home fresh in her vision, to plead for charity. But she did it. Again and again she said to the passers by, sir, please ma'm give me a penny to buy bread for my sick parents.' But the gentlemen bud their overcoats buttoned to their chins, and the lathes were enveloped in furs, and it was too much trouble to find their pocket books or purses just to supplya beggar's wants. ' Co to the soup house,' said one at lust, more churlish than the rest. "l'he city pro - vides for such as you." It was a new id a to her, and as fast as her feet could carry her she went, and entering in breathless haste told her story to the attendant Matron. I will report the case to the committee,' said the woman quietly, waking a memo randum of the name and number of the . 4reet. Come in to-morrOw morning, ,Trid I will do what I can for you.' To morrow ! She would he too weak to walk so far by that time, and what would become of the rest? With a heavy heart, she went home, having o courage to present herself as a waiter to any of the coffee houses she passed on her way. Did you get :tome ?' cried the boys, ;gathering about her, and pulling off her cloak to see flit was hidden in her cloak or under her anus. Pid you get some r said faint voices from the bed in (he curlier, aylthe cover let was thrown off; slid tivo pairs of thin white hands put forth. No, no,' she answered plaintively— But I will try again. Keep up good hope.' MT= There will be plenty out of the oven now.

Then she went on quietly pausing an instant before eich baker's door, and looking anxiously within. By and-by she found one that seemed to be empty. A whole pile of steaming loaves lay on the counter,/ - She rus,l;d in and seized one, and hid ing it under herAdoak, fled madly up the street. But the baker had seen her from he little sitting-room door, and was after ler, crying lustily, Stop the thief, stop lie thief.' A crowd followed her and the >our child was soon run down A clear case,' said the police officer, who took her in hand—property found on her. ,•She-inust go to the court-room•' In vain she pleaded with them and told her story. They-must do their duty, she might have binged ; she might nave gone to the soup house ; there was no excuse fur steal ing, at any rate.' No excuse, and her parents were dying for food An important trial was just clos'ng, and all the avenues to the court house were thronged. they'll be through soon,' said the offi cer to the baker; 'we'll wait here ate. moments No danger of her getting away while wy grip is on her,' and tightened his grip on the shrinking arm till the flesh quivei ed with pain. Take me home first,' she said sadly ; :they will worry about rue so. My poor mother will die if sho thinks that 1 am lost.' ''They'll soou find out where you are,' said he gruffly. Bad news is like light ning, it travels so fast' ' Oh dear, oh dear ! What will become of them?' and she sobbed aloud. A little girl about her age was passing by; a rich wan's child—you would know it by the embroidered dress and cloak, the rich velvet hood, and the costly fur tippet and muff. But there was no false pride hidden under the expensive rai ment ; a warm heart was beating' there, and'its sympathies went out fin• towards the pour little prisoner. For a moment she pauses as if irresolute upon her plan of actMu ; then laying het mittened hand gently on the officer's, she said politely : May I. speak with her'?' 0, yes. she's not committed yet.' Putting her soft rosy cheek close to the purple cold one, she whispered very ear nestly.

Good-bye—keep up a gaud heart;' and off she tan. She klaeu-'-11-or mother to be one of the most charitable of women, and hastened home to tell her mother the story of Ma ria ; but unfortunately she had just gone to ride, and would nut be back till near dinner tune. W hat can I du ?' she cried, wringing hands. They want coal, and bread, and tea and so many things, and I have only ten cents in my pocket." She sat down on the marble steps and pondered. Mi at once her eyes brigh tened, and a beautiful color._ flushed her face. I'll do it,' she said resolutely; 'mam ma willfergive me when she.-knows- all.

What is' it then, MY dear ?' For a moment her lips quivered; then she spoke up quickly. You said once, •sir,you would give me an eagle for my . curls. Will you do it now—today—this minute ?' The hair dresser was astonished. What could the child mean. To cut off those curls, long, silken, and gold colored, the pale gold of a starry sunbeam; it would have been sacrilege almost for a mother to have done it : to sell them was surely a crime. ' Dyes she, yo - ir mother, does she know you came here?' No sir, but she will -not blame me when I tell her how it was. 0 no, she is too good.' And how is it My dear? Make a friend of we, and tell me how it comes you ask me to buy your hair,' and he stroked the glossy curls as tenderly as IL a father might She hesitated, atd then opened her heart to him. There was a mist ou his eyes when she finished her plaintive story. He walked the floor a moment as if irresolute, then stoppinr,be fbre her, he took out of his pocket•book, and handed her two half eagles. Shp put them in her purse, and quietly took off her hood. Nut now, my little angel !' he said, huskily; `1 nlll too busy to morrow will do as well; or stay; I will come in this . evening. 7 ill thou du nut mention it to any_one... Co, now, on your mission, - my Sister of Charity,' and, he led her to the dour. flow quick her little feet flew over the pavement. She could hardly speak when she had leached a baker's shop. Two loaves, sir—large ones, too she gasped, and threw down one of the gold pie6es. The man stated at her curiously. The color rose to her brow, but she s rid noth ing and hurried away with her warm, fragrant, bundle. 'ls it you Mafia'?" What kept you so long, daughter ? 'Quick, break rue a crumb, I am faint.' Like an angel the little stranger look ed to them as she glided in, her cheeks like apple blossoms, and her hair filling over her shoulders like ripples of sun shine. 'Marla cannot corn° home yet,' she said, in a voice that was as sweet as a robin's in :\lay , tinie. 'But she will return to- I morrow; perhaps this evening, She has , sont me with the bread. See the two nice loaves of bread I've brought you,' and she tore it in fragments. Tears cours ed down her face as she saw how eagerly they clutched them. She had never known how hungry folks may be, and live. .I musr,,go door ; but I will cone again soon and 1 . make you comfortable,' and she hurried 1 to the nearest grocer and bought a baskefl full of - provii.ioliA, "and erigagetrhild-tel send in some kindlings and coal. The little boys helped to build a fire in the cold stove, and when it blazed merri ly, she Pot on the kettle, and soon had a refreshing cup of tea for each invalid, and a platter of smoking potatoes for the chil dren. ' Where is Maria, do you know, little angel ?' asked the sick mother, as she gave back the cup. 0, yes, I know,' she answered, cheer fully. 'Di In't I say she would be'home early to-morrow Don't worry. Better days are cowing I'll bring her back in the morning. Good bye.' It was as though a fairy had come and vanished; a kind-hearted fairy, too, for beside the supply of coal and wood, a half eagle lay in the sick Ether's hand. Murmuring to himself all the tender adjectives in the French language, the good hair-dresser immediately hastened to' the court room. The judge was a friend of his, too, and he hoped to save the child from prison. She had notyot been brunet,- in,-the Court having adjourned for half an hour. Be asked fur a private inter view with the judge. As soon as it was granted he told him all Maria's distress, and the generous kindness of little The resa. Poor child !' good child! said his lis tener wiping his glasses. 'She must gu to prison, 1 suppose, but it shall be to h chamber in my own house. Go into court and tell the same story over; it will be better than a lawyer's plea.' lie did so, and there was not a dry eye in the audience when he ceased. Even the baker hung his head and Seemed to muse. Before the breathless silence had been broken he looked up and said, ' I withdraw my complaint; let her go with we and take all - she wtots:'- The spacious room rung with applause ; and while the enthusiasm was at its height a thoughtful old man went 'about the crowd with his hat. People's fingers bound their pocket books as if by intui tion, and when he poured the collection into Maria's apron she screamed with joy. No more hunger, no more cold, no more nakedness that winter. They were rich. The baker took her home himsalf,.and told her at the door not to worry' about bread till spring, for his Wagen• would leave them : all they wanted every -morn ing. How lightly she bounded up the staircase. It was like a bird's footfall, a singing bird's in the time oftiowers. --'-Havo you come,-Maria? Two voices spoke at once. Yes mother, yes father, and we are rich; sec 1' and she emptied - her - apron an the bed. flow merily the silver and gold coin jingled. It was ljke the echo .of. a harvest song, the distant. echo brought back by summer breezes. . Bless you my little sunbeam, bless you my. angel- And the two hands were laid upon her' head, and tears.and smiles were strangely mixed together.: • " * * * • * • * What doeS it mean; Theresa 2' and the mother looked wonderingly at her beauti into ful daughter, as she came the parlor in obedience to tvinessaga, broUght by; a servant,il‘fonsiebr 13. says nu promised to see him to-night.'

Sold your hair ! cut it off were you crazy, are you in ,earnest And hhe gathered her to her side, and laid her hand protestingly over the precious curls `Tell her how it was, sir. She won't be angry, then. Please, sir, tell her.' He did so. Closer and closer to her •heart was the child drawn by the tearful Mother, as the narrator proceeded with his touching story. And when it was finished, she covered her face with kisses and said in a broken voice, Of such is 'the, kingdom of [leaven.' A single ringlet was severed from the beautiful head that night; one long, soft, .golden curl, which the hair , dressar car ried home as reverently as though it had been drawn from an angels wing. On the morrow he had it woven into a hearts ease, and the sunny, shining human flow er was ever afterwards worn nest his heart, a talisman against besetting sins. - - - THE LEEDS MANUFACTORIES From a valued friend, we have the follow leg interesting deseliption of Probably the largest.. mill-in -t-he world, •May we not ask our American English . contOutur to let us hear from her again. Leeds stands at. the North-East corner of the clothing district of the \Vest Ri ding of Vol kshire. It is the chief* town of the district, in respect both to the flat and woolen manufactures. None of the other towns, excepting, perhaps, Barns ley, partake in any notable degree in the former of these two manufactures; but at Leeds it has led to the construction of one of the fittest factories in the world, and to others of great magnitude. No one who pretends to knowanything about, Leeds at the present day, can afford to remain in ignorance of Marshall's flat mill it, is one of the lions of the place. Without, within, over it; under it—all is vast, strange and wonderful. Situated at a short distance South of the River Aire, and bounded mostly by_poor dwellings, it must be sought for before it will be found; and-when found, there is one portion of the establishment, the old mill, which is too much like other mills to call for ob servation; but the new mill is a marked feature. Egypt seems to have been in the thoughts of the architect when he plan ned this building; for the chimney has the form and proportions of the world-re nowthid - "Cleopatra's needle ;" while the entrance exhibits a front nearly analagous iu character to that of an Egy p Clan Ve . . - - The building, unlike almost all other large factories, is only one story in bight. It. exhibits on the eastern higade a long range of massive pillars or pilasters be tween the win ows, and a bold cornice running along the top. The whole front being formed of stone, and minute detail being avoided; there is a sort of massive . grandeur in this lung low facade. The other facades are remarkable only for their great length. Those who have the good fortune to get a peep into the inte rior, will not soon forget the sight which I meets the eye. One room occupies the whole : but such a room ! if we call it the largest in the world, we cannot be far in error. About Jour hundred feet ling by more than two hundred broad, it covers nearly two acres of pound. Bir mingham is justly proud of its Town i Hall, but this wonderful factory room is 'nine times as large; Exeter Hall is of tlAe largest rooms in London, but it -would re quire seven such to equalthe area of this foully, the London club-houses present (lades of- great length ' but it would re tinue four of the largest to equal the length of this pout. The room is about twenty feet high, and the roof is suppor ted by about fifty pillars The spaces between the pillars allow the roof to. be partitioned off into a series of flattish domes, or groinedirches, sixty or seven ty in number; and in the eentte of each dome is a lofty conical sky-light, of such large size that the whole series. together contains ten thousand square feet of glass. The view through the room is quite with out a paralell. Vista after vista meets the eye, formed by. the ranges of columns; whether we stand at the side, the end, the corner, the centre—still these long stretching, well-lighted, busily-occupied avenues carry the eye in beautiful per spective to far distant points. There are I believe, upwards of %a thousand persons in this*room alone, mostly females;• and the large.and cJimplicated machines are very numerous: yet there is a kind of airiness and• roominess felt, unusual in in factories. Here, in one part of the room, are t'. - e "flat drawing". operations going on; in another part the t'roving" in another the "spinning;" in another the "twisting;'' all with such perfect liar tnony and system, thatoopfusion and idle nogg are equally out of the qu i tgion.
