And you and I are young and hale, And each a stalwart man, And we must make his load as light And easy as we can. Lie used to take the brunt, John, At cradle and the plough, And earned our porridge by the sweat • That trickled down his brow; Yet never heard we him complain, Whate'er his toil might be, Nor wanted e'er a welcome seat Upon his solid knee. And when our boy-strength came, John, And sturdy grew each limb, He brought tuvto the yellow field, •To share the toil with him; But he went foremost in the swath, Tossing aside the grain, Just like the plough that heaves the soil, .-- Or ebips that sheer the main. Now we must lead the van, John, ' Through weather foul and fair, And let the old man read and dUze, And tilt his easy chair; • And he'll nut mind it, John, you know, At eve to tell ns o'er Those brave old days of British times, Our graudsitos and the War.. I heard you speak of mn'arn,John, 'Tie Gospel what you say. That caring for the like of us Etas turned her hair to gray! Yet, John, I do reutetrilter well When neighbors called her vain, And when her hair was lung, and - like A. gleaming sheaf of grain. Her lips were cherry red, John, Her cheeks were round and fair, And like a ripened peach they swelled Against her wavy hair. • Her step fell lightly as the leaf ' From off the summer tree, And. all clay busy at the wheel, She sang to you and me. She had a buxom arm, John, That wielded well the rod, Whene'er with wilful step our feet The path forbidden trod; But to the heaven of her eye We never looked in vain, And evermore our yielding cry: Brought down her tears like rain. But this is long ago, John, And we are what we are,. - And little heed we, day by day, Her fading cheek and hair'; And when beneath her faithful breast The tides no longer stir, 'Tie then, John, we the most shall feel We had no friend like her! Sure there can be no harm, John, Thus speaking softly oe'r • • The blessed name of those erelong Shall welcome us no more. Nay, hide it not, for why should'st thou An honest tear disown ? Thy heart one day will lighter be, Remembering it has flown. Yes, father's growing old, John, His eyes are getting.dim And mother's troading softly down • The .deep descent with him :• But you and I are young and hale, And each a stalwart man, And we must make their path as smooth And level us we can.

ANNETTE AND THE WATCH. " Oh, grandpa, do show me your watch, and tell me the story you prothised about it," said Annette Farley, running into her grandfather's room one bright May morning, and' carelessly throwing her hat into her grandmother's arm chair. "Well: Annette," said the old man, as he took ont his large old-fashioned watch, with its heavy chain and seal, "do you suppose that there is anything new which I can tell you about a watch?" "Why, yes," said Annette; "you promised to tell me something, and of course you know that I can tell the time and all that by the watch." "Oh, yes, Annette, I know you are a very bright little girl, and perhaps you - know all I am going to tell you. Look at me, and see if you can tell me what time it is by my watch."' "Of course it is two o'clock in the afternoon by your watch," said Annette quickly. "By this watch, yes," said her grandfather, but this is-not the one Inman." • "Oh, well, the clock says five minutes, past two," said Annette, looking up at the old clock in the corner. "I don't mean that, either," said her grand father, smiting. "I did not know that you bad another clock," said Annette, looking curiously around, 'but if it is right, it must say about the same that these do —mustn't it?" "Yes, if it is the same kind of clock; but the one I speak of is not exactly the same." "Isn't it, grandpa? oh, do let me see it. I like so much to see new, strange things," cried Annette, eagerly. "How do you know this watch is going ?' asked the old man. "Because I hear it tick, and tick, and tick," said Annette, bending her head close over the watch. "Nell, Annette, I have heard. my watch tick, and tick; and tick all day, and all night long, ever since I can remember: " And where i 3 it, grandpa?" asked Annette ; " show it to me, and I will tell you the time." "I'm afraid you can't do that till I tell you bow," said her grandfather. "This watch of mine is very singular; its hands go round only once in about seventy years, and when it has been ticking away about thirty years, the hands point to twelve o'clock,POon." "Why, grandfatrier l " exclaimed Annette, "do show it to me; it must be a very curious watch." " It is very curious, Annette. Just look into this watch ; see how many little wheels are flying around and around, and the mainsprings and hair springs, all needed just to keep the thing in order for a day. . My watch has a umeh more curious and delicate mechanism to keep it going fur so many years." " But I shmild think it would grow old and rusty and worn out in so many years," said An nette. "It does grow old, and when the bands have g ene round' once, the watch stops forever—every wheel and spring is completely worn out." • "Oh, grandpa—can't it be wound up again?" naked Annette, "No," said the old man, musingly, "never wound up again." Annette paused a moment, watching her grand father's face, for he seemed to have forgotten what lie was speaking of, and to be thinking of something far away; but she was too restless and busy a child to be long silent, so she said gently: "Grandpa, don't such strange watches stop sometimes before they have gone so Jong, and when they are not worn Out?" "Oh yes, Annette, they stop at all hours— soup: hardly seem to tick at all," said the old 11111.11. " Well, then, you can wind them up and set them going again," said Annette, "because they are nut worn out." "No, you can never wind, up one of these watches after it ,onee stops ticking, Annette," said the old man sadly. "I don't understand you," said Annette, with an earnest look. "What time does your waich say?" • "The hand has passed the eleventh hour of the night, Annette," said her grandfather gravely. "Oh, grandpa, it will stop very soon; do let me see it first," cried 'Annette. "You have the same kind of watch yourself, Annette," said her grandfather. "Have I, grandpa?" said Annette; "1 never saw it." "I see, it," said her , grandfather, drawing her gently to his side, and looking kindly into her upturned face. "And its hands pointed to an early morning hour." "Oh, grandpa, why don't you show it to me, and tell me all about it?" asked .Annette. "My dear, I can't show it to you; but give me your hand—there, don't you hear it tick ?" and he took her little hand and laid it on her heart, while he tepeated, softly-- ,6 There is a Mae Myitic clock, No human eye bath seen, That ticks, and ticks, and ticks . From morning until e'en." "Oh, grandpa, I know what you mean now," said Annette. "You mean my_ heart, that beats just as long as - flys. I wish you. had not told we. It frightens me." , • . - "Tit,, Annette, you must , not: be frightened at such things," said her grandfather, gently; "the little watch will tick just as long and steadily, if you do think of it, and if you lire aright, your whole life will seem like a lung, pleasant day, and a gay, rosy morning of pleasure, a'clear noon-day for. work and a calm twilight and evening for rest." "And that is ashy you said that the hands_of your „watch have passed• eleven at night," said Annette. 'Plat night, as Annette heard the old. clock in tlp corner ticking, she thought of *hat her grand - - fatter had said, and so, day after day, the old Clock taught her a lesson ' But soon the weather beeame warmer, and she found enough to amuse and instruct her in the garden. Her grand father loved to walk with her through the woods, and tell her about the trees and flowers. Some times he would rest himself under a tree while she oliMbed up the hills for some wild flowers which would be pretty to plant in her garden. One day he did not get up to breakfast, and when Aunette went to see him in, his room, he said: "Annette, dear, my -watch has almost run down; it will tick but a little longer, and it can' never, never be wound up again." " Oh, grandpa, grandpa I" cried Annette, con vulsively, throwing herself on the bed; and burst ing' into tears. "Annette, darling," said her grandfather, soothingly, "don't grieve for rue; it is only my body that is worn out. My soul is strong and bright, and it is glad to be free for a new, and liettmr life." Thus with kind .cheerful words he comforted her till she was calm, and the SO, clays that he still lived she was ever by 1:48 .side. Little Annette grew,up to be a lovely woman. She never forgot her grandfatber's teaching; but tried always to live fur the better land where. he had guue, mad where she hopes one day to meet hint. • RELIGION SAKES MEN RQNEST. Religion is counteracted and obscured often by prevailing customs and maxims; and that is apt to be oiled right which is practised among Chris tian people. Heathen converts take their ideas of rectitude from the foundation of the truth, at first-hand, and not as misrepresented and belied by merely nominal Christians. Hence We see in converts from heathenism, often, some of the highest ornaments of the Christian rule, and spirit. I recollect to have seen . it stated by a rnis.siona-, ry at the Cape of Good Hope, - by the Rev. Dr.. Philip, that of nine hundred cases brought before Justice Burton, in a tour through the colony as a circuit judge, only two eases were those of natives who had belonged to missionary institutions, : and these were for quite moderate offences. Rev. Mr. Grout, who has been a missionary among the Zulus of South Africa more than a quarter of .a century, stated a few years since, )hat in moving, he had occasion to place his goods under a shed, where they lay four months, day and night, without door or window, and Wereoften han4lel by the, natives, and though niany articles , were fancied, by them very much, nothing was ever taken. It is not supposed that these were all Christiana, but many of them were, and their influence was felt by all. The Zulis, it should be said, have always exhibited wreinarkable plieity of character. We,have another striking illustration ' in the case of a Hindoo who, r.° was converted at Ahmed nuo,er. This man, Bheeka by name, was a gate keeper to the village of Ithokur, a little distance from Ahniednugger, and one of his duties was, when any traveller, especially any government officer called, to obtain for him what was needed, or call any person in the place whose presence might be 'desired. On one occasion, when the officer came to collect the revenue, the gate-keeper was sent off for the head man of the village; but the, latter, not wishing to see the revenue' officer, said to Bheeka, "Go and tell him that Imu not at home." - : faithful.:The agate-keeper made no reply, but . .. went back and told tbe officer “The headman is at hoine but he has directed, me to say that' he m not at home." The head man of course was soon found, and was greatly enraged , on learning how he had been betrayed. He had no . power to punish the Offen der, but he had learned to send no more such lying' messages by Bheeka. It was also one of the duties of the gate-keeper, when a government officer called, to provide him with fuel,. which by a custom of long standing, was taken from the house of the villagers wherever it could be found.—Bheeka had done this many times , before conversion, but now he had learned a new lesson of integrity, and though the fuel Was not for himself, and it was agreeable to eon - Minn usage to take it from his neighbors, he could not do it; and knowing further that he should be beaten if he 'refukid, he promptly resigned his office, which, with its large, emoluments, was of great importance to him. This man was not influenced by opinion, the fear of disgrace, or the dread of punishment; these all favored his takint , r' the fuel as ordered; he would even 'have been honored and enriched by .doing it; but Gospel precepts had enlightened him; religion had , beceme ts, power in his heart and conscience, mi'd he had the firmness to quit a luerative office the moment that office involved a wrong to his neighbor. 'A.titericen`,Christians who read this, will make the proper applications and reflections. The facts were part of the missionary journal; published in the Herald .in 1844. Oue case more, eq . ually instructive. It occurred at Aiutab, a station of the American Board, in Syria, and a very important town of thirty erforty thou sand inhabitants. The jewellers in that town had a custom, that when a person came to buy or pay for an article, who did not know its value, the jeweller would tell him it was worth so much, (perhaps'twice its value) and send him around to ask the rest: and,they, , understanding the "trick of the trade,'-"'would all say it Was Worth so Much; Merry's Museum. anteritan grtob#tetiatt ani:o viltfice OrA4tteliot. and if any did not conform, to this rule, the craft would soon find a way to put hint out of the busi ness. In that country a man cannot choose what occupation he pleases, but is compelled to observe certain regulations, and have permission from the chief. Among,' the jewellers of Aintab WWI one who, instructed by the missionary, embraced the truth as it is in• Jesus. His religion now would not allow of his practising, the deception •required by the trade and the fraternity of jevrellers would not tolerate his new conscientious scruples, and so he had no alternative but to sin on, for the gain thereof, or leave the business, and seek a liveli hood some, other way. He did not hesitate, but threw up his trade, knowing that it would be ex tremely difficult,,Eor him to find any other occupa tion; and thus he honored Christ and the Gospel, choosing to suffer poverty With a pure heart and clean hands, rather than enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season. This jeweller bad not derived, from a low stan dard of Ohristianity, the idea thuta matt can be a Christian, and impose on the credulity of his neighbor by taking twice as much for an article as it is wc,rth. Religion does, make men honest. It will make a. Boston or New York merchant honest; it will take a Hindoo, a Zulu, a Syrian, or a . Pijian, en lighten his judgment, correct his conscience,; soften his heart, and make him a kind, just, truth ful and henest msn.:----Thisle more than the Wis dom of all heathen precepte ever did; more than the philosophy of Grecian snges ever ancoMplished a greater achievement than the'deisM of Voltaire, Hume, Paine and Parker . could ever boast. SIMPLE PEtER. . It is very weak and silly to be vain of rich clothes, beautiful faces, or elegant mansions. This, every child knows; n havintr been taught by cradle Hymns and nursery stories that these can not be trusted in. knows that our ornaments, hosVeyer•nrach we May boast of thew, are the gifts of the worm, the bird, or the dark mine, and pro cured neither by our skill nor our wisdom. But there are other gifts which come to us directly from the hand of God, of which we sometimes feel that we do well to be proud,—our good sense, our talents, our genius. These often cause the man, as well as the boy, to hold the head erect, and to look down ;seen:dully on those leas favored of Heaven But, ells! some who have ten talents will Caine short'of heaven, while many a poor one, almost an idiut, who obeyed the little of his Mas ter's will`which had beeu revealed to hint, will find rest with Jesus, where the veil shall be lifted. frowthe dark mind, and he shine fur ever as . a star in the kinedout of God. • We know,''-=-mir are We ashamed to say we know him-well,—a"poor man whoui the world calls an "idiot." In early childhood he received an inju ry on liis' head !Which fractured the skull. Not having proper medical 'care, a small bit of bone which' should have been removed, was left pressing upon the brain. The wound healed over, but the mind never regained its vigor. The poor child of poverty could never take care of himself agaiu. As years wore on, his natural protectors grew weary of him, and a, large-hearted gentleman re- 7 solved, for 'Christ's 'sake, to provide for the poor outcast. Under his care he was taught to cotint, to 'run little errands, mid was also sent to the Sabbath school. He could never comprehend the mysteries of the alphabet; but the greater wyste rieareVealed in the way of salvation, he understood and believed with :a readiness which might cause many wiae, many noble, to blush. His strong faith and unflinehing. obedience were beautiful to behold. If told by his teacher that such 'or such a thing would please Jestis, he would do it,:tto matter what obstacles lay before him; but if he knew any act to be 'offensive to the Saviour, nothing could bribe him to !Jo it. • • The poor fellow was perfectly aware that he was not like other people, for : when forty years old, he, sought_ his company ameng children, touching them the . little he:knew, and entering heartily kith their joYs." He did all- in his poWer' to gather outcasts into the Sabbath school, which was his paradise; At One time there Wara'tiuite a rebellion among the larger boys the school, and many. left, _saying, with that spirit-of pride which goeth before destruction. We are too big to go to Sunday school." The superintendent, who was, giving his all to, their interests, was so pained ,that he _covered his face with his hands and wept Then the pour simple boy,—or man as he really w'as,—rose and said in broken lan guage, loyking sadly, from his dull eyes, "The Bible says, them that, God has given Much to, hell expect, a great deal of. New, boys, he habit given but a little Speck to oie, so he - W ont ask much of me; but if he gin toe as much senses a's' be has you i 'll'd :be afraid to look him in the face if I behaved as, you do." • • All felt the rebuke, and were more influenced by it than by the words of the wise; Oh, will not such as he, who, heaTing.of Jesus, believe in him, at once, -rise in"judgMent against many, who, with clearer intellects have rejected the Lamb of God, , that taketh away the sin, of the wend? Let us take heed `how we 'deapise•oneiof these little ones; • nor let us 'boast' of our Wisdom and talents until we know that they will not increase our condemnation at the great•cla.y.
