A CHILD'S DREAM OP A STAR,
There was once a child, and he strolled
about a good deal and thought of a num
ber of things. Ho had a sister, who was
a child, too, and his constant companion.
These two used to wonder all day long.
They wondered at the beauty of flowers;
they wondered at the height and blueness
of the sky ; thoy wondered' at the good
fleas and power of God; who mado the
loiely world.
P. M. A. U. P. Iht

•
They used tosaito one another-some
tines, "Supposing all the children on
the earth were to die, would theilowers
and'the water and the sky be sorry ?"
They believed they would be perry.
"For," said they, "the buds are the
children of the flowers, and the little
playful streams that gambol down the
hillsides are the children of the waters ;
and the small, bright speaks playing at
hide-3.1141-800k in the sky all light, must
surely be the children of the stars ; and
they Would' all be grieved to see their
playmates, the children of .men,' no
more."

There was one clear star that used to
come out in-the-sky-before-the-restFnear
the church spire, above the graves. It
was larger and . more beautiful, they
thought, than all the others, and every
night they watched for it, standing hand
in hand at the window. Whoever saw it
'first cried 'out, - "I see the steer 'And
often they cried out together, knowing
So well when it would rise, and where.
So they grew to be 'such friends - with it,
that, before lying down in their-beds,
they looked out once again, to bid it
good night ; end when they were turning
round to- slehp they would say, "God
bless the star 1"
But while she was still very young, oh
very, very young, the sister drooped, and
came to be so weak that she could no
longer stand in the window at night ;
and.then the child looked sadly out by
himself, and when he saw the star,.
turned round to the patient's pale face
qn the bed " I see the star 1" and then
a smile would come upon her face, and a
little weak voice ueedto say : "God bless
my brother and the star 1"
And so the time came ail too soon,
when the child looked out alor, and
when there was no face on the bed; and
when there was a little gray& among the
graves, .not there before ; . and when the
Star made long rays down towards him,
; Os he saw, it through his tears.
.Now, these rays wore so bright, and

they seemed to make such a beautiful
shining way from earth to Heaven, that
when the child went to his solitary bed,
helreamed about the star; and dreamed
that lying where he was, be saw a train
of people taken up that shining•road by
angels. And the star opening, showed
him a great world of light, wheramany
more such angels waited toreceive them.
All those angels,. who were waiting,
turned their beaming eyes upon the peo
ple who wee. carried up into the star;
and some came out from the long 'rows
in which they stood, and fell upon the
people's necks and kissed them tenderly,
and wont away withthem down avenues
of light, and were so happy in their
company, that, lying in the bed, he, wept'
for joy.
But there, were ruany.angols who did
not go with thorn, and among them ono
he know. The patient face that had once
lain upon the bed was glorified and radi
ant, but his heart found out his sister
among all tho host.
His Sister's angel lingered near the
entrance „_(4 the star, and said to the
lea4er among those, had-brought the
pooplo thither—
"ls my brother come?"
And ho said " No."
She was turning hopefully
away , when
the. child stretched out his arms, and I
said, •" Oh, sister, I am here l Take
and then oho turned hor beaming
eyes 'upon him, and it was night ; and
the star was shining into. his room,
making long rays down towards him as
ho saw it through his tears.
From that hour' forth,, the child looked'
out upon the star as on the • home ho was
to go to, when..his time should come,
and _he _thought-he did not belong to
earth alone r but to the star, too, because
of his sister's angel gone. before. • • •
There was a baby born to be a brother
to the child ; and while ho was so little
that ho bad never yet spoken a word, he
stretched his tiny form out on the bed
and died...
Again the child dreamed of the opened
star and of the company of angels, and .
the train of people;and all the rows of
angels with their beafning eyes all turned
upon those people's faced- •'
Said his sister's angel to the leader—
` ,"Is my brother come • •
And he said, 41 Not that one, but
another." • '
As the child beheldhisbrether'a angel

And he said, "Thy mother."
A mighty cry of joy went forth through
all the star, because the mother was
re-united to her two children. And ho
stretched out his arms and cried, " Oh,
mother, sister, and brother, lam hero 1
Take me I" Apd they answered, "Not
yet," and the star was shining.
He grew to bo a Tan whole hair was
turning gray, and he -was sitting in his

is the baby of old time, and I can bear
the parting from her, God be praised I"
And the star was shining.
Thus the child came to be an old man,
and his once smooth face was wrinkled,
and his steps were slow and feeble, and
his back 'was bent. And one night as
he lay upon his bed, his children stand

CORRESPONDENCE'.
LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND,
" August 12, 1870. 1 0
•
Ma:rt. Editors: _
Allow me for the present to'pass the
momentous and all.absorbirtg topic of
war, to what may bo more agreeable to
a larger number of your readers.
Bailing on the second of July from New
York, in a British mail steamer, with four
hundred and fifty passengers on bdard, we
reached Liverpool In ten days and two
hours. With an unusual number of
clergyman, professors- of colleges; law- ,
yers, doctors, students, Manufacturers,
,andmerrchants,„ and a fah. p_tcportion of
ladies, it is not difficult to understand
that wo had a pleasant time, notwith
standing the low temperature of the at
mosphere and the strong east wind which
pievailed for several days; interfering in
some measure-with .our-progress. -
Our coats and shawls, to those whO
were provident enough to bring them
along, were found quite comfortable.
On account of the Severity of the weather,
and the fog which soomod foi a time to
cling to the waves we were fearful of ice
bergs ; but our good captain steered south
of the usual course and we saw "Harry
one."
To an American residing at a distance
from 4 th'e ciMit the atmosphere of the
ever restless ocean is singularly refresh
ing, and no doubt, in many cases, is
favorable to health. Whether it can
have any permanent good effect upon
those who aro afflicted with tubercular
consumption, is doubtful—this being a
specific disease, understood only by those
who aro familiar with Anatomy and Pa
thology. To such we would say, beware
of ignorant pretenders and quacks. A
pure atmosphere, . good food and care,
will do more for you than medicines.
After a brief stay in Liverpool, which
is noted only as a trading emporium with
magnificent docks and warehouses, I set
out, in company with Mr. and Mrs. N—,
of Lexington, Ky., to visit the favorite
summer resort of the elite of England.
A few hours northward by rail through
Lancashire,
„a rich agricultural and man
ufacturing district, brought us tri Lake
Windermere, twelve miles in length and
ono in breadth. The afternoon was
pleasant, and we had a most delightful
view of the ever varying scenery of the
surrounding hills, as our little steamer
carried us over its placid waters. Hero
was the home of Arnold, and Wilson,
6"ndic:idand Wordsworth, and
many others distinguished for learning
and the love of the' beautiful. To gain
admittance into the grounds and humble
mansion, in which Wordsworth penned
his beautiful poems, and who:Croke closed
his eyes upon the loveliest scenery on
earth, and. to visit the old church yard at
Grasmere, in which his mortal remains
are laid; were, on this occasion, the ful
filment of our highest xvlshes.
• Sixteen miles northward from Gras
mere, a magnificent drive, we reach Kes
wick, a town of ancient date, surrounded
by the most delightful scenery—river,
and lake, andmeadmi—hills, and peaks,
and pasture lands. Here was the resi
dence of the modest Southey. In the.
old church yard, a plain slab marks his
resting place. Rot 'to the credit of the
good people of the , town, a beautiful
statue of the poet, ,at the entrance into
the old church, meets the eye of the wor
shiper and the tourist:
. Penrith is our next stopping place,-'
noted as the residence 'of the ancient
Druids, afterward of Richard 111. • The
old castle of red sandstone, overlooking
the town and surrounding country, is the
chief\ object of interest, suggestive of a,
warlike and barbarous age.
At Carlisle, in Cumberland county, we
have only time to visit the old cathedral,
dedicated to St. Mary in the beginning of
the thirteenth century. It is a Magnifi
cent structure, better suited for the pur-,
pose of an art gallery than for religious
worship, in which oratory and music are
essential parts. , In it are still kept, with
'sort of religious veneration, numerous
antique -paintings of the apostles and
saints, inseriptionts and epitaphs written'
in unintelligible characters, a miiture of
English and (hello. Here too, strange
ax It may seem to an American, beneath•
a large slab which forms prat of the Cold, i'

DEDICATORY ADDRESff...:'-'
BY DR. ALFRED MEMO. . ,
We notice by the Washington (Pa.)
pap,ors, that the citizens of that borough
i i
have recently erected a Town Hal
which was formally dedicated to ,
purposes,of its erection, in presence o
large audience. The dedicatory add
was delivered by our former towns ,
Dr.' Alfred Creigh. 'The address 41 -
tallied a fund of interesting historical in
formation, and we regret that we can
only find room for the following extract,
in which the names of two citizens;
well known in the early history of our,
borough, are introduced! . _
" More than a century since the land'
westof the Allegheny mountains ,right
fully belonged to the red mee,of the
forest.
- .
" Llere In peace they dwelt, - :
For the Great Spirit pre It aa a gilt
To there - and to their BOWL"
Bethought King George 11., when, in
his proclamation of October 7, 1763, he
enjoined and required Jolts Penn, Lion . :
tenant Governor of Pennsylvania, to put
an end to the encroachments which were
being made upon the Indian bads, re
quiring and commanding British subjects
to remove east of the Allekhony moun
tains. So also thought the General ifs,„
sembly of - Pennsylvania in 1768, when'
they passed a law authorizing the Rev.
John Stool, of Carlisle, °and three, other
commissioners, to visit the Monongahela,
Youghiogheny, and other sections west
of the Allegheny mountains, to read to
the settlers the law, and notify them to
xemove off the Indian_landand_in_
.cano Of refusal, the garrison of Fort Pitt
was to be called into requisition to drive
them off and to arrest the ringleaders—
and, • after conviction by a jury, the
offending parties were to sufferdeath, with
out benefit of the clergy. In May, 1768,
Rev. John Steel and his_co-laborers as
sembled the people at Fort Burd (now
Brownsville) and addressed them on the
subject, which -partly - had - the desired
' effect. —
" Then, or over one hundred years ago,
there were residing. west of the Alle
gheny mountains, in the great valley. of
the Mississippi, which commences_ with
the waters of the Monongahela, only one
hundred and fifty 'familieii; or aboutseven
hundred souls ; now the. States and Ter
ritories which belong to the Mississippi
valley have a population of millions, all
occupying the Original hunting grouridi
of the Indian. In point of wealth, in
telligence, and progress in the mechani
cal, manufacturing, agricultural, and
professional pursuits of life the' An
gl9-13axonrace of the Mississippi val
ey, excels the population of any other
portion - of America--or elsewhere.
"Pero you will pardon me if I digress
for a moment and refer to the Indian
chief Catfish ; for in the early history of
our State, and before Washington county
was erected, and when both Virginia and
Pennsylvania claimed Washington, Fay
ette, and Greene counties, this place was
known as Catfish's Camp; and was on
the Indian path, or great road, leading
from Fort Burd (Brownsville) to Fort
Wheeling. The few, scattered log huts
were called' by the name of Catfish, and
the stream which meanders through the
southern and westeriTilarts of our bor
ough bears the name of that celebrated
Indian warrior. He was the chief of the
Knskuskco Indians, who claimed the
lands from the Allegheny mountains to
the Ohio river. As early as 1759 this
Indian chief, whose Indian name was
2'ingeoequa, visited the Provincial Conn
cil of Pennsylvania, at Philati6lll4 an
entered into a discussion (through his
interpreter) with Gov. Hamilton, and the
chiefs of the Wyoming and Delaware
Indians. The object of . his visit can be
better explained in his own words than
by any 'language of mine. Addressing
the Council, ho said : came from the
Kuakuskees. Tile nation I belong to, as
well as many others to the west of us,
as, far as the setting of the sun, have
heard that you and Teodyuscung (chief
of Delawares) sat often together in coun
cil, and at length agreed upon a peace ;
and we are glad to hear that the friend
ship and harmony which of old subsisted
between our and your ancestom was
raised up again 'and established once
more. This was very agreeable to us,
and wo came here to;see if what was re
lated was true, and we find it is true,
which gives us groat satisfaction.' "
We learn from the address that the
corner stone was laid by President Grant
in 1869, and the entire cost of the build
ing is nearly 86,000 dollars. Part of the
hall is to IM used as a public library, for
the founding of which Dr. F. J; Le-
Moyne donated the munificent sum of
.0,000 dollars.

when we had dono a good day's work,
James Harper, would say, "Thurlow,
let's tweak the back of anoilier token—

reluctantly, consent just to break its
back of the token, but James would be

never lot me off until the token was com

of the morning, and go down to 'John

an opening in the blind. "A pressman,"

at an elegant brick dwelling house, the
exact locality of which is no business-of
I=
Ho was received by, a stiff, well-dressed
lady, who could well be recognized as a
widow of some years' standing.
On learning the mission of her visitors,
the lady invited him to take a seat in the.
ball. Having arranged himself in a
working position, he inquired for the
number of persons in the family of the
lady.
"Eight, sir," replied the lady, "includ
ing myself."
"Very wellyour ago, madam I"' '
"My age, sir," replied-the lady, with
a piercing, dignified look. "I conceive
it's none of your business what my ago
might be ; ' you aro inquisitive, sir."
"The law compels Me, madam, to
take the ago of every person in the
ward ; it's my duty to make the inquiry,"
" `tiKell e ff the law-compels you to ask,'
I presume ft compels me to answer. I
am - between thirty and forty."
"I presume that means thirty-five ?"
"NO, sir, it means no such thing—l
am only thirty-three years of, ago."
"Very well, madanl," pitting down
the figures, - "just as you say. Now for,
the ages of your children, commencing
with the youngest, if you please."
"Josephine, my yotingest, is ten years

"Josephine—pretty name—tem"
"Minerva was twelve last week." .
"Minerva—captivating—twelve."
" Cleopatia.Elvira has just turned fif

"Angelina—favorite name—eighteen."
"My oldest and only married daugh

twenty-ilve."
"Twenty-live, did you say ?" . '
"Yes sir. Is there anything remark
able in her being of that ago?"
"Well, no, I ean'tfiay that there is ;
but is it not remarkable that you should

:Some men get into an occupation

below that for which. they are intended.
They have their " seventy-four" in the
mill pond. They do ,not _get' along. as
well in that position as somebody with
less brains. An elephant would make
wretched work if you set it to hatch out
goose eggs, but no more wretched - than
a man of great attainments appointing
himself to some insignificant office.
Men are often in a position a little
above that for which they were intended.
Now the old scow is out on tho ocean.
The weights of a clock said : "Como
come I This is dull Work down here.
I want to ho the pendulum." But the
pendulum shouted upward : " I'm tired
of this work ! It does _not seem that I
make any progress going backward and
forward 1 . Oh 1 that I wore the hands ,
Under this,-,excitement,, the old clock;
which had been going ever since the
Revolutionary War, stopped stock still.
" What is the matter now, my old
friend ?" says the gray haired patriarch.
For very shame, not aword was said,
until the old man sot it agoing. Then
the striking, bell 'spoke up and' said :
"Nothing ;'only tho weights wanted to
be 'the pendulum, and the pendulum
wanted to be the hands." " Well I Well
said grandfather, "this is great work I"
and the old man, losing his patience,
gave the clock a. gentle slap in the face,
and told the pendulum hereafter to hold,
its tongue, and said to the weights: " 'You
be hanged."
But how may we know if we are'in (Mr,
right place—not an inch above, not an
inch below? If you can perform your
work easily, without being cramped or
exhausted, that is the right place. That
man is in a horrible condition who is
ever making prodigious efforts to do
more than ho can do. It is just as easy
for a star to swing in its orbit as for a
mote' to float in - a sunbeam. Nature
never sweats. The groat law of gravity
holds the universe on its back, as easily
as a miller swings over his shoulder a
bag of Genesee wheat. Tho winds never
run themselves out of breath. Tho rivers
do not weary in their course. The Mis
sissippi and the Amazon are no more
tired than the meadow brook. Himalaya
is not dizzy.
Poets talk ,about the waters of Nia
gara being in an agony, but I think they
like it. How the frolic and clap their

on toward the groat somer'saidt, dinging :
"Over we go I over WO. go When the
universe goes at such tremendous speed,
and the least impediment might break' .
ono of the great wheels, is it not a wonder
that we do nothear a prodigious crack,
or thunderous bang, loud anougb
make the world's knees knock together?
Yet a million worlds in their flight do
not make as much noise as a honey boo
coquetting among the, clover-tops.•
Everything in nature is just as easy.
NOW, if the position you ebeupy requires
unnatural exertion, your only, way out is
either to take a step higher, or a stop fur
ther down. Providence does not demand
that you - should break you back, or put
you• arm out of joint, or sprain your• an
kle. If you can only find out just what,
you are .to do, you can do it ,perfectly
easy. , •

The sea of life is so rough that you can=
not cross over from one vessel to another
