teresting work, entitled “ Madge, or Night and.
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.

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.

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. His head restecl*;on
his hand, and he was evidently endeavoring
to fix attention upon foe remarks of a tail,
swarthy-looking man who stood and;
wlio; I Soon, discovered, was foe “owner'of;
foe girl, and was attempting a. defence of foe!
foul outrage he had committed-upon the un
resisting, anjd helpless: person, of.
nate who .stood smarting,, but, silent,
under foe dreadful pain inflictedby foe bra
tal lash. ■■ Zi . . . *\..: ■'
By foe side of foe slaveholder stood our
Adjutant-General, his face, livid, with
irrepressible ragej and his fists tightjclenchj
ed, as if to violently restrain himself - from
visiting foe guilty wretch with summary and
retributive justice. 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.
His whole air was one ofidejeetibn, almost
listlessriess J- his indignation too intense, and
his anger too stern, to find expression even
in his countenance.
Never have I seen that peculiar look but
om.three-pr four occasions .similar %thp ope
I rim narrating, when rkUtew’fiewas ponde
ring upon the baleful curse that had cast its.
witheririg ; bHght upon all arburid; iih?il the,
manhood tudfl humanity were-crushed, but ,o£
the people, and ; outrages such :as the above
were looked upon with complacency, and the
perpetrators treated as respected,a/nd worthy
citizens,—rand: that he was realizing the
great*truth, that, however man might endea
vor to guide this war to the advantage of a
favorjto- idea, or sagaciojis policy, -the Al
mighty was directing r it' surely and steadily
for the purification of our country from this
.greatest of sins.
„ But to returmtoiHiy-story. After sitting
in the mood which I have described at 1 such’
length, the Gen.eral agaip. turned to the pri-i
soner, and said; m a quiet, subdued tone of
■voice,—- 1 ' - - ; '> 1
. “Mr. Landry, lidare not trust myself tb
decide to-day what punishment would be
meet for your offence,,, for, I am.in.that state
{bf,mind that;!; fear Lmight excee.d’ithe,strict
demands of justice. > L shall therefore place
! you under guard for the present; tiritii'T con
clude upon.your,sentence.” ,
’ A few days after, a number of ; influential
citizens haviiig represented to the General;
that Mr. Landry was not only a “ high-ton-,
ed. gentleman,” rbjit a, - person, of/.unusual'
amiability” of character, arid was conse-
entitled "to no small degree of leni-i
eney, he answered, that, in consideration of
the prisoner’s “ hightoned” character, and
espeeirilly of his. u atriiability,” of which fie;
had seen sopremarkable a proof,, he had de- ;
termined to meet their views, arid therefore
ordered that Landry give a deed a. manumis
sion,, to,fop,girl, anfifpay a fineof five hun
dred .dollars,* to be placed in the hands of a
trustee for her benefit. . '
lt is the. passing through such scenes as I
have tbe. contemplation of the
condition to which. Slavery has reduced soci
ety in- the South; .combinedwith a natural
inclination .to espouse the capse of the, bp,
pressed, tfiat has placed- Gerieral, Butler -in
foe front rank of foe “ Champions of Free
dom.”
I remember, so long ago as last July, his
turning to me, after reading foe' story of our
sad reverses in Virginia; and remarking that
be believed God was directing foe issues of
foe war for a great purpose’, and that only in
so far as we followed His guidance should
we be successful. I. have, heard him repeat,
this in effect several: time's Slice, and have
seen foe conviction growing within his mind
deeper and deqpir* as events .proved its cor
rectness, powri to the present 'time.—Atlan

A VISIT TO SING-SING.
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. These foe,
driver informed us; were : called “ Look-outs)”!
in which armed men were always' stationed,
whose business it was to take or’shoot’down!
any one who tried to escape. i
We ascertained- foe h umber of’Convicts to,
be one thousand and seventy-six men and)
one hundred and thirty-five women. 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.
Following him, we,passed : down stairs, ands
along a yard upon., which, several buildings*
opened, through each, of , which we , were;
