Morning,” will be pleased to know that the fol lowing beautiful lines were written by the author of the work alluded to.] Only four—just four short years ; Since he came to me, Nestling in my heart and arms 0, so tenderly! Now the rain falls on his.grave, Sighing wearily. Only four—how I listened For his busy feet, Pattering softly down the stair, “ Papa home” to meet — Never to a mother’s heart Was a, sound more sweet. Only four—my precious boy, With his honest eyes Always looking into mine With a sweet surprise. Now, with faded autumn leaves. Little Willie lies. * Little Willie, just beginning, * • In a Winsome way, To repeat his “ Now I lay me,” •At the close of day; Tears come faster now than words When I kneel to pray. Only these—an empty crib, And a vacant chair, •With a half-worn pair of shoes And a curl of hair. Golden with the sunshine falling On his head so fair. Only these are left me now, I ** And the house is still ; Everything seems asking for him,, And my heart so chill <> Asks for Willie, never thinking Of our Father’s will. Quite forgetting that the angels Took him home to Gpd, , Only Willie’s body, resting Under the brown sod: Help me now, in my great sorrow, Christ to kiss Thy rod. •—Student and Shdolmate GLEANINGS FROM THE FOREIGN MIS- SIONARY FIELD. 39—Inhumanity of Caste.

As a missionary on the island of Ceylon was going through the cinnamon gardens ■,* he saw a- black man lying by the roadside, apparently dead. He went to him and found that he still lived and breathed, and asi several persons were passing by, he asked them to help raise him up so that he might see what ailed him. He surprised to find that every one refused to render the smallest assistance. At last one of them was condescending enough to go with the missionary, to the next village, to procure the services of a policeman, or of any one they could. Before they returned with two Malay bearers, a crowd of people had as sembled. The two bearers and the mission ary raised him up and found that he was an Afrioan, who had been dreadfully beaten and wounded. He was lifted upon a wagon and carried away to a public house': and there attended to. The Cingalese who Stood by all the time, made not the slightest move to help. They thought they would be polluted or degraded by touching a Caffree. Every one refused to help, with exclamations of the utmost disgust. Yet if this man had not been removed from the place where he was found, in all probability he would have been torn to pieces by the foxes before the next morning; for these animals are very nume rous in the cinaamon groves. I 40—The Face of the Sick. Eze£. 34: 4 .—• The diseased have ye not strength nened; neither have ye’healed that which tods side. Most of the heathen pay no kind attention to the sick. In China we find the Children most affectionate and faithful to their sick parents. The negroes, the Indiana of North America, and the numerous tribes of North era Asia, believe that an evil spirit has taken up its ; abode in every sick person. Some magician has sent it. The spirit must be driven out. The conjurors rave around the sick man with drums, and pipes, and howl ings, and shriekings, only robbing him more certainly of the little strength he has. In Tahiti, it was the custom to build little ,h.pts for those who suffered with lingering diseases, after putting them in the midst of the wilderpess. To these hu,ts, for a while they WQp|d bring them a portion of food, but by-and'hy they would abandon them to die the painful death of hunger. Sometimes: the relations even, and so-called .friends, would cast their spears at the poor invalid, arid strive to see who first- could pierce hiur through; or they destroyed his life in ano ther manner, of which a horrible instencelis related. A sick man was living with one of his friends: who nursed' him for a, while,: but soon grew weary of the undertaking. Accor dingly he went one day tothe-sea-shore apd dug a hole in the ground, and then returaed and offered to carry his sick guest thither for a hath. The sick man was pleased with the offer. Two men carried him upon a bed to the sea. As he saw the hole, he suspected the horrid purpose of,his friend. In deadly | abolish, he sprang from hist bed: and gather ed all his remaining strength for flight. But the wretches hurled a stone at him which brought him to the ground, and then'dragged him into the grave, covered him with earth, and trampled down the earth with their feet. Some women who were passing by, heard his cry of distress but they gave themselves no further concern. 41—Condition of Woman. Epb, 533. —Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so lave, Ms wife even as himself; and the wye see that she reverence her husband. Among most of the heathen nations the practice of polygamy prevails. Among many ml®* 0 r ‘^ es idea of marriage is Wanting, rhe, government, usages and order of the family.are abolished. In some places the img reserves the right of selling the women. Unly such as pay a certain sum and pros trate themselves before the royal throne in the Aust can have wives. The Bushmen and iiattentots use the women merely to gratify their lusts and in the performance of the severest drudgery. Whoever can get many Wives takes many. If they become burden some he drives them away again, and hunger and suffering are then their lot. The Indi ans of-North America are too lazy for any continuous exertion, and find their delight and employment in the chase alone. Hence all foe burdln ofthework falls upon woman. She is the slave of the mad. Their condi tion is often so miserable, that the mothers destroy many of their*, new-born daughters, so that they may not grow up to experience the. like distress. Upon, the South Sea Is lands, before the reception of the Gospel, the females were treated as if .they had been beasts of the field. They dared not wear the materials worn by their husbands, nor eat the same food with them. They might; not touch the ground, which was regarded) as holy, with their feet. They were obliged) to work like slaves. They did not eat their meals with their husbands, but had to wait on them by putting their food into their mouths. On the Feejee Islands, at the death of prominent chiefs, several of their wives were regularly strangled, often ■by their own children, and buried with them. For example, there were chiefs on the Friendly Islands who had from thirty to forty wives. The slightest mistake on their part was enough to put their lives in jeopardy. , Turn; now and .look upon a civilized heathen country: we mean the East Indies. There the girls grow up in neglect and ignorance. Only those attached to.; the idol worship, called Bayaderes,: who .are compelled to serve the vilest purposes in. the pagodas, are taught certain branches) of art and science. The girls are betrothed at the; most tender age, principally in foe fifth, andj sixth year. It is indeed their wish and: prayer, and the object of many incantations, to become the only wife of their husband.* But the parents make no inquiry on this] point. The Hindoos, particularly the great and rich, take many wives. With the wed-, ding day commences a period of absolute; .slavery for the wife. After the wedding the young wife draws back her veil and the older members of the family behold her counte nance for the first and; last time. For after: the ceremony, she is taken into the apart ment of the women. Now she is not allowed even for once to behold the face of her father in-law and brother3-in-law, or speak to them —only her own sons up to a, certain age may; she see without her veil. . On the wedding day, she eats for the last time in company with her husband; afterwards when the hus band eats, his wives stand around with veils; on, and waif upon his nod or command.’ After the husband is done the women with draw and eat up the fragments he has left. Even the. wives of wealthy and .respectable men are often obliged to work atfoe.severeSt labors in the field. The poorer: women have the lot of slaves and nothing more.' To es cape the misery and often too, the abuse-to which they are subjected they sometimes fly to the hquse of their parents, but the husband may at any time come to demand their return. No better lot can befall a, woman than to die while a wife. Thesaeredi books regard this as a special favor at the; hands of the Deity. Should she survive her husband her misery begins with his dying; day. The Hindoo suppresses all sympathy for her with the saying: “ She is accursed,; and haS earned all her'present sufferings by her sing' in a. former lifol” ;All ornaments and all; handsome clothing from her ; she is allowed no share of her husband’s property. She becomes the slave of distant; relatives, who often’ require of her the' se verest labors.. She maytake in no sea son of rejoicing, her appearance at such a. time is a sign of ill-luek. Every ten days; she must shave her head and perform .the; appointed ablution in the river in every kind) of yveafoer, and even during sickness. She) is permitted to eat but oiice a day, and the! hare ground* is her couch; Second marriage: is not allowed. Hence it was, that formerly! many Hindoo widows preferred to such a! despised widowhood, a death, which the peo ple regarded as honorable and happy, upon, the burning funeral pile of their husbands.* Even yet in parts of India not under Bri-: tish rule, instances of widow-burning occur,, though th ey are not frequent. ! MOTHER’S NEEDLE. BY M. D. Bi B. What a curious little implement it is! In sigflificant to appearance, it makes but little show among the household treasures; . arid yet, without this* tiny hit Of- polished steel,* the various appointments of the most, neatly arranged work-box would be of very little iise. Small as it is too, 1 we are indebted to its untiring industry, for most of our home comforts. . It has been aptly remarked, that a needle is a peculiar gift to woman. How many lit tle bits of time it helps her to improve ! How! many moments, that to the other sex are; but; idle moments, are filled up, arid well by this truly feminine employment of needle work! ' f •> : Then too, it is a graceful occupation, How well that snowy muslin contrasts with thej dark morning dress, with whose foldfcit min gles; how deftly the little fingers ply the embroidered seam; and,how swiftly too they fly ! No time is lost. While you are simp ly looking on. ,and; admiring, balancing the scissors in your unoccupied hands, or, with the ready iriiscbicf found for those idle mem bers to do, rifling and deranging the contents of your epmpanion’s w or M>asket, the work is progressing. Perhaps before your com monplace topics arejexhausted, the nimble im-i plement of industry has finished its task; arid some heart may be gladdened by this,wise oc cupation of spare moments. , O But “mother’s needle” pricks not;out for itself such pleasant paths as these. It may, be that no appreciating eye looks on and commririd|> its. praiseworthy .efforts ; albeit they are made for the common weal and common: wealth of both. Neither is there much room for or settling in pic turesque attitudes; to sew, when Will, or Johnny are sadly out at elbows; and the tired fingers are toiling from morning till night to keep half-worn garments whole and decent. Nor does “ mother’s needle” cease when the day’s labor has for others come to, a close. While you Bleep, and the’ little ones dream over again their merry pastimes, who,, with straining sight and aching side and breast, bends over the last stitches that must be taken in the new jacket, that is promised for! to-morrow’s wear.; or with inventive skill; contrives patches that will be invisible, aridj darns to pass-muster in a crowd, on some! garments not yet wholly given up as irreme-; diable ? Who but. the., patient imitator of Bum’s “auld gude wife,” in his inimitable’ poem of the Cotter’s Saturday Night—the! mother who ’ “ —-wi„’her needle an’ her abeam, Make auld claes luke amaist as weel as new.” vigils there is a constent demand for “mo ther's needle” through all the hours of the! day. Those unfortunate buttons, whose ten dency to be among tbe missing has been the theme of many, a.’story, what a hue-and-cry is raised about them; and how unjustly the ■ ■poor needle is blamed, for not keeping them in their places. Buttons have been as foe hone of contention between many a pair, whose “ souls” were once “ above buttons. Then Mary has fallen down and torn her frock, or in one of his frolicsome moods, has essayed foe feat, of scaling foe : picket fence instead of quietly walking in. at; the open gate, and lof what a formidable rent! This is his second best suit, and his summer ones are yet uncut from, the web ; so : with a sigh, the book or magazine wirch has been taken up to satisfy foe mental craving, or recreate the overtasked mind, must be patiently laid down again, and ‘‘ mother’s, needle” brought forth, threaded, and set to work. So with all foe little calls that are. constantly made for this peculiarly woman’s; craft. Here is a glove that needs Borne; stitches.; one or two will retain that hat-band; in its place. “If mother will only sew o i this ball cover—she can do it so nicely;” or, “ fit dolly’s frock waist;” or, as a last resort, “ teach little daughter to sew, ’ are some of the extra employments furnished for “mo ther’s needle,” by foe juvenile members of the family.—Arthur’s Rome Magazine. ?li:t been/411Mb'. A STEP IN GENERAL BUTLER’SCON • VERSION. .„,■ ; [Air officer of Gen. Butler’s staff in New Orleans relates foe following fact in foe his-: tory of Gen. Butler’s management of affairs in that city.] _ One Sunday morning, late last summer, as I .came down, stairs to foe breakfast room,' I was surprised to find a large number of persons assembled in foe library, . When I reached foe door, a member of foe Staff took me by foe arm, and drew me into the room toward a young and delicate' mu latto girl who was standing against the oppo site wall, with foe meek, patient hearing of her race, so expressive of foe system of re pression to Which they have been so long subjected. .Drawing down foe border of her dress, my conductor showed me a sight more revolting than I trust ever again to behold. ' ; The poor. girFs hack was flayed until foe quivering flesh resembled a fresh beefsteak scorched, on, a gridiron. With a, cold, ehill creeping through my veins, I turned away, •from the sickening spectacle, and for an, ex planation of foe affair scanned foe various persons about foe room. In foe centre of foe group, at bis writing-! table, s&tfoe General.

Disposed about foe room, in various attitudes, but all fexhibiting in their countenances foe same mingling of horror and indignation, were other members of foe Staff, —while, near foe door, stood three or four house-servants, who were wit nesses in foe case. • . << ■■* To the charge of having administered foe inhuman castigation, Landry (the owner of the girl) pleaded guilty, but urged in exten uation that foe girl had dared to make an effort for that freedom which her* instincts, drawn from foe veins of her abuser, had taught her was, the , God-given right of ail Avho', possess, foe, germ of immortality, no matter what the color of foe casket in which it is hidden. I say “ drawn from the veins of her abu ser,” because she declared she was his daugh ter, —and. every one in the room, looking upon the; man and the woman confronting each other, confessed that the resemblance justified the assertion. After the conclusion of all the evidence in the case, the Genefel contihued in the same, position as before, and for some time- apparerifly lost in abstraction!; I shall never forget; the singular expression on his face... .* J: " I had been accustomed to see him in a storm of passion at any instance of oppres-; sibn Or injusticebut on this occa sion he was too deeply affected to obtain re lief .in the usual way.

After riding a short distance, we arrived, at'foe prison, expecting to see high stone! 'walls, with ponderous iron'- doors; but instead,; we saw a collection of large buildings, plea santly situated on foe-Hudson. Some of these looked indeed! prison-like enough, with their narrow-grated windows ; but most of them had 1 foe appearance of! workshops,; rather than places of confinement! for crime.; Several mein* in 'the* garb peculiar to the con vict, made* of coarse wdollem clotkwifo stripes 1 running round, which made" them look more; ’like foe clowns of a than anything elsej were-d*ivi»g'*««*iaoj and we wondered at their being allowed so much freedom.— Jtißt-foefr oiir attention - was attracted* number of huts on foe hill-side.

The i disparity was the more strißhg, because there! are' two other prisons for men in foe State, while that is the f only one for women. After) waiting until our patience was almost worn out, a guide at length presented himself.
