Just before the children came, While the room was very quiet, I heard some one call my name, And 1 saw the window opened, And a field where lambs and sheep, Some from out n brook were drinking, Some were lying fast asleep. “But I could not see the Saviour, Though I strained my eyes to see; And I wondered if He saw, me, Would Ho speak to such as me? In a moment I was looking On a world so bright and fair, Which was full of little children, And they seemed so happy there. “They were singing, 0, how sweetly I Sweeter songs I never heard! They were singmg sweeter, mother, Than can sing our yellow bird, And while I my breath was holding, One so bright upon me smiled; And I know it must bo Jeshs, .

Mother, don’t be crying so ! Hug me closer, closer, mother, Put your arm arouud me tight. O, how much I love you, mother. But I feel so strange to-night!” And the mother pressed her closer To her overburdened breast; On the heart so near to breaking, Lay the heart so near its rest. At the solemn hour of midnight, In the darkness, ealm and deep, Lying on her mother’s bosom, Little Bessie fell asleep. THE CAKE-SELLER OF BEEKMAN STREET. BY SIKS. F. D, GACIE. The sun was just coming up and taking its first peep into the city, as a woman came stump ing up Beekman street, who immediately chal lenged my attention, and made me forget the brightness of the day, and the folly of men and women that sleep away this the most beautiful and soul-inspiring of all the hours of the twenty four. Was it anything strange to see. a woman coming up Beekman street, the noisy thorough fare of thousands ? Yes. For at this sunrise hour this woman was alone: not another human being treading those cold gray stones in sight. Her outward seeming, too, was strange. On her head she carried a board three feet long and eighteen in ches wide, which supported an old nail keg. She was lame, and seemed to walk with difficulty; but still she carried her load steadily. In one hand she held a large market basket, and the other earned or half-dragged a box sixteen in-' ches square. Her dress was old and patched, but it was clean. Clump, clump, clump, she came up the street, with her board, keg, box, and basket, until ex actly opposite the window of my “ own hired” apartment, and there she plumped down, and put her box upon the step of a large business house opposite, No, not the step, but within the space between two columns of said building, which matte a little recess for her use. Next her basket was, released from-her weary grasp; then up went the freed hands and the keg came down carefully upon the stop beside the box ; and last, the long board left its perch above the black, genteel hood, and took its place upon the keg : and straightway there was a table filling all the space between those columns, except that which was occupied by the bo!x. Now the white cloth that covered the contents of the basket became a table-spread, and was laid neatly over the board, and hid the old nail-keg from the gaze of the passer-by. And then the treasures of the basket one by one found their place upon the clean side-table—sponge-cakes, cream-cakes, ginger-snaps, pound-cakes, crullers jumbles, and I know not what, until inviting groups flecked the white cloth, corners, niches, and center, with a tempting variety. The basket disappeared under the shadow of the table, and when the whole was competed, the lame woman looked it over with earnest scrutiny, adjusted a few refractory cakes, and then, placing her bands upon her hips, she sur veyed the whole with evident satisfaction for a moment., before seating herself upon her box, to await the coming of her customers. duly one moment’s rest did she give those busy hands. No sooner seated was she, than her sewing emerged from her pocket. The needle was threaded, and the work spread out upon her lap. Ah 1 what a revelation was bound up in that bit of scarlet calico ! In its folds lay the parts of a tiny slip which revealed to my motherly vision a baby child just tottering alone, for whom those busy fingers were “ plying the needle and thread.” I drew my chair and writing-stand near the window, anil as my pen scratched over the pa per, ever and anon my eyes wandered out of that, narrow room, through open windows, down to this trader by the wayside. Stitch, stitch, stitch, went her needle—the hand only stopping to pick up a penny or make change for a little yellow paper, ns cake after cake disappeared. llow 1 wished more people would pause before that impromptu stall! Why did they pass her and trade with that red-faced : creature opposite, who was scolding or coaxing every passer-by '< ‘ ° There, the skirt of that baby slip i s done, an ,i edged with a strip of white braid around the bottom. She holds it up and looks at it, anil the light of love glows al! over her homely, care-marked face. Now come the waist and sleeves; mayhap her stitches are not as well set or her work such as would take premiums at fairs, but it will do. The great clock chimes twelve. A penny fiom her pocket buys an apple from another woman who walks by with her basket, and a doughnut and her apple makes her wholesome lunch for the clay. Not once has she risen from her box. Now a cake is handed tea boy who with a tin-cup which has been hid away in her basket, bounds away and soon returns with wa ter from the neighboring fountain. Her head droops against the corner, her face turned toward her cakes and upward to ward the clear blue sky glowing with the mid day sun. Her eyes: close, and the red slip lies quietly beneath her hands, rihe.is asleep—the first falling footstep near her awakens her. So she dozes for half an hour, and then, busy as ever, pursues her task.' Two o’clock! More cus tomers. Tho tired aiul hungry to and fro pause and take refreshment. She lays by her work for a little—exchanges two cakes for an orange, and by-aml-liy three or four for two largo ap ples ; presently a. candy-dealer leaves a bright red and white twist in tho place of a cream cake, and all these new acquisitions are laid in a corner by themselves. Her stock is getting low, aud tlio sun is send ing long slopes of shadow eastward. Now she holds up the little red dress by the sleeves, sur veys it with loving looks, and lays it across her lap, and leaning forward looks wistfully down the street. The sun sinks lower; tho high walls of com merce and trade arc darkening the shadows there, and still her eyes peer wistfully among the crowd, as if some beloved object was ex pected. Ila! how her face brightens! what radiance of joy gleams on every feature I Up goes the little red slip, hold in both hands; and in less time than I have taken to write the words, an old woman, who* evidently bears upon her broad shoulders the weight of threescore years and ten, drops into tho extended arms of the patient, waiting worker, a beautiful child, who clasps her neck and nestles in her bosom, al most speaking his delight in half-cry and half laughter. There is no delay; the material fountain is given to his use. And then old deaf granny is told of.the results of the day, and treated to the last of the remnants iipeii the stand. That big apple was for her; that or ange was for her. Now little rosy-cheeks lifts up his head, bound with golden curls, and claims that braid of candy. How be laughs and crows, and for every demonstration of joy he is clasped to his mother’s breast and smothered with kisses! f' Hundreds have passed this .humble group, yet riot ono lias seen this exhibition of filial and maternal love. The-words “mother” and “ granny ” reach me up to the second story, as the eakescller tries to make the deaf old woman hear; and I know, by the full, round, musical tone, that love, true and pure, lies- sweetly sleeping in the hearts of the two. Whose eyes see that little red slip put upon that baby boy ? who sees that mother’s heart felt satisfaction at the fit? who sees the proud crowing of the bright-faced darling, with his pouting mouth made all the sweeter by daubs of candy ? Who sees that proud old grandmo ther leading her pet away, his little bare feet pattering along the hard pavement, and his merry laughter keeping time to the pattering? The cakeseller’s work is done for tho day. She rises .up and straightens with difficulty her cramped and crippled limbs. The remnant of cakes are laid in the basket, the white cloth folded and laid over them, the board lifted upon her bead, the old nail keg hoisted above, the box and basket taken in the two hands, and clump, clump, clump, she passes down the street in the dim twilight, her day’s work of love and duty done. All this long, long day I had been waiting for, a telegram to tell me of the fate of one most dear, and that humble creature, crippled, yet earnest, faithful and loving, helped me to grow stronger for tho fate that awaited me. . - And when at last that fearful dispatch came that crushed my hopes, and transferred my love from earth to heaven, I know I was able to say with more perfect resignation, “ My Fa ther, thy will, not mine, be done,” because of the patient work and cheerful smile of the cake seller of Beekman street. Exchange, MR. BRIGHT ON RECOGNITION. The following is the concluding part of Mu Bright’s speech in the House of Commons,. June 30t1i,.0n the proposal to recognize the rebellion : What was the state of things before the war ? Every year, in the Southern States of America, there wore 150,000 children born to the bond age and doom of slavery—bom to liability by law, by custom, and by the dfevilish cupidity, of man—(“ Oh, oh,” and cheers) —to the lash, to the chain, to the branding iron, and to be taken from their families and earned they-know not whore. (Cheers.) I want to know jvhether you feel as I feel on this questiou. When I go down to my home from this place, I find half-a dozen little children playing on my hearth. Hoiv many members are there here who can say with me that the most innocent, the most pure, and the most holy joy which in their past years they have felt, or in future years they have hoped for, has arisen from contact and as sociation with their own precious children ! If so—if when the hand of death takes one of these flowers from your household, your heart is overwhelmed with sorrow, and your house hold Is covered by gloom—what would;.it.be.if your children were brought up under this infer nal system ? 150,000 children every year brought into the world in these Slave States, amongst these gentlemen; amongst this chivalry, amongst these men we can make our firiends! Do you forget the thousandfold griefs and'count-, loss, agonies which belonged to the silent conflict of slavery before the war began. (Loud cheers.) It is all very well for the honorable and learned gentleman to tell me and the House—‘he may tell the House, but he will not tell the country with any satisfaction to it—that slavery, after all, is not so bad a thing. Why, the brother of the honorable member for South Durham told me himself that in North Carolina he hirnslf saw a woman whose every child, ten in number, had been sold when they grew up to that age at which they would fetch a price to their mas ter. I have not heard a word-to-night of the pro clamation of the President of the United States. I can make all allowance for the passion, and I was going to say the malice, but I will say the ill-will, of the honorable and learned member lor Sheffield in not referring to it; but looking at the proclamation, what do you propose to do? Yon propose by this resolution' to help the South to gain and sustain its independence. (Hear, hear.) But what becomes of the pro clamation ? I should like to ask any hon. mem ber in what light wo stand with regard to it To us tbere is only one United States, one Presi dent, one Legislator and one law, and if that proclamation be lawful anywhere, at any rate, we are not in a condition to deny its legality, because, at present, at least, wo know no pres ident Davis or the men about him. I want to ask the House of Commons whether you thiilk, turning your eyes to the year 1834, and tracing the praise bestowed upon you for thirty years by the great and good men of every country for what you did at that time—do you think, turn ing your eyes to that time, that you meet the views oi the thoughtful and moral, and religions people of England, when you propose to remit to slavery the three millions of negroes in the Southern States who, in our view, regarding the proclamation as legal, are certainly, to all jntents and purposes, now free. (Hear, hear) oTho honorable and learned member for Sheffield talked of cant and hypocrisy. Was Wilber fbrc.'e, v\ as Clarkson, was Buxton— were all these men hypocrites— and had they nothing about them but eaut ? (Hear, hear.) In conclusion, 1 have only to state that I wish to take a generous view as regards the people of a country with whom we are on terms of amity, whose Minister is received here, and who receives our Minister at Washington. I say, we find the Government of thc° United States for two years past contending for its life, ,and iu that contest contending necessarily for [human freedom. (Oh I) It affords a remarka ble example, offered for the first time in the history of the world, of a great Government gltttniatt rcslr»tnut» dtucsec dvattpligt. coming forth as the organized defender of law, aud freedom, aud equality- (Cries of “ Oh, oh,”) Surely no honorable member can ire so .ill-in formed as to say that the revolt in the Southern States is in favor of freedom and equality. _ln Europe, and often in some parts of America, when there has been an insurrection, it has generally been of the suffering against the op pressor, and rarely has it been found that Gov ernments have stepped forward as the organized defenders of general and wide freedom to all those under their rule. (Hear, hear.) If this be so, with such a Government, with such a contest, and with such a foe, the honorable and learned member for Sheffield, who professes to be more English than most Englishmen, asks us to throw into tho scale against that Govern ment the weight of the hostility of England. (Hoar, hoar.) I have not said a word as re gards what may happen to England if you should go into a war with the United States. I( would be a war on the ocean, and everything would, as far as possible, be swept from the seas. Brit when the troubles in America are over, be they ended by the restoration of the Union or by separation, that groat free people, the most instructed in tho world—(Cries of “Oil”)—there is not to bo found in the New England States a man who cannot read and write—(hear, hear). —there are not three men in 100 in tho whole Northern States who can • not read and write, and those who cannot read and write are those that have recently arrived from Europe—(a laugh)—l say the most in structed, and if you take t,ho..distribution of wealth through the whole-community, tho most wealthy people in the world—you will leave in their hearts a wound which probably a century may not heal, and the posterity of some who novv hoar my voice mayjook back with amaze ment—and I will say with lamentation—at the course taken by the honorable and learned member for Sheffield, and by such members of the House as niay choose to follow his load. (No, no.) I suppose the honorable gentlemen who cry “No” are aware of this fact—that wo do suffer from some errors of our ancestors, and I believe there are few people who have it not to say that if their fathers had been wiser, their children would have been happier. (Hear, hear.) We know the cause of this revolt, its purpose, and its aim. Those who made it have not loft the world in ignorance of their in tention. But what it is to accomplish is stiil hidden from our sight, and I will abstain now, as I have alwrfys abstained with regard to it, from predicting what is to come. I know what I hope aud what I shall rejoice in, but I know nothing of future facts that will enable me to express a confident opinion. The hand of tire Supreme is over the breath of man and the life of States. I atn willing to commit to Him the issue of this dire contest, lmt I implore of Him, and I beseech this House, that my country may lift neither hand nor voice in aid of the most stupendous aet of guilt—(oh, oh)—which his tory has recorded in'the annals of mankind. (Loud cheers.) *- A PEEP AT SARATOGA. And so wo are at Soratoga. Now; of all places to stay at in the summer-time, Saratoga is the very last one'to choose. It may have attractions in winter; but, if one wishes to rest and change and root down and shoot , up , and branch out, he might as well take lodgings in the waterwheel of a saw-mill. The uniformi ty and variety will be much the same. It is all a noiseless kind of din, narrow and intense. There is nothing in Saratoga nor of Saratoga to see or to hear or to feel. They tell you of a lake. You jam into an omnibus arid ride four miles. Then you step into a, cockleshell and circumnavigate a pond, so small that it almost makes you dizzy to sail around it. This is the lake, —a very nice thing as it goes; but when it has to he constantly on. duty as thenatural scenery of the whole surrounding country, it is putting altogether ioo fine a point ‘pn.it. The picturesque people will inform you of an Indian encampment. You goto see it, thinking ;of the forest primeval, and expecting to be transported back to tomahawks, scalps, and forefathers ; but you return without them, and that is ail. I never heard of anybody’s", going anywhere. In fact, there.did not seem to be anywhere to go. Any suggestion of mine to strike out into the champaign was frowneddown in the severest manner. As far as I could see', nobody ever did anything. There never was any plan on foot Nothing was ever stirring. People sat on the piazza and sewed. They went to the springs, and the springs are dreadful. They bubble up salts and senna. - I never knew any-; thing that pretended to he water, that was half as bad. It .has no one redeeming quality. It is bitter. .It is greasy. Every spring is worse than the last), whichever end you began, at. They told apocryphal stories of people’s drinking sixteen glasses .before breakfast; and yet it may have been true; for, if one could bring himself to the point of drinking one glass, of it, I should suppose it would have taken : such a force to: enable him to do it that he; might go on drinking, indefinitely, from the mere action of the original impulse. . 1 "should think one dose of it would render a person per manently indifferent to savors, , and make him, like Mitbridates, poison-proof. —Atlantic Monthly. ARCHBISHOP HUGHES OH THE HEW » YORK RIOTS. This bloody tragedy has been finished up with a farce. Archbishop Hughes must needs have the honor of giving peace to the city. After the - rebels were thoroughly routed, he covers the city with placards; inviting the “ o/ New York, who are now called in many of the papers rioters to assemble at bis hoiise -in Madison avenue.. They accordingly met, five : thousand in number, on Friday afternoon. As ' none were invited except those “Called rioters,” we take it for granted that the - five thousand were a pretty “ hard set.” The reverend prelate, : however, did not believe them rioters, he “ could not see a riotous face amongst them.” He com -1 menced his oration by calumniating England, ! jn the usual bullying style of the Irish, organ, the Herald. “-’{Jive-me meh ; ? (we quote from the Herald,) “and I know of my own knowl edge that if this city ivas invaded bytlic British or any other foreign power—(the Archbishop here paused, and gave a few suggestive nods of his head, which elicited loud hurrahs and ; genera! cheering, and called forth cries,of Quick work, then, sir !)—I tell you th,b delicate ladies of New York with infants on their, breasts, ; would look for their protection to men, ‘hjb're than to gentlemen.” He east his eye back to ; the lariji of his nativity, and when hh saw v ",the i cattle browsing on t.lie ruins of the cottages of the noble people who once lived there,”, he thanked God that he had come “tola country where at least no such tyranny is practised.” He did “not envy the policy of John; Bull iu replacing a pbble population by a raefe of fat bullocks.” He had not assembled them for the purpose of scolding them ; he only wanted to give them advice. “It would be strange if I did not suffer much in my feelings by these reports, by these calumnies, as I hope they are, against you and against me—that yon are rioters, and that you are this and that, and yon can ’ imagine that I cannot hear such things Without feeling deeply.” He recommended every man to “become, in his own modest way, a preserver of order and peace;” not to act on the aggressive, although every man had, . according to his notion, the “right to. defend liis shanty if no more (cries of, So we .will! and cheers,) or his house, or his church, (loud hur rahs,) at the risk of his life. The Archbishop then told some stories, among othersjonc of an Irish boy who ate raw eggs, and in this, way, accidently swallowed a chicken, and bearing its cry in his throat exclaimed,-" Ah 1 I’m sorry for you, hut you spoke too late.” He finally gave these murderers, fresh from the bloody work of slaughtering, hanging, burning, and drowning innocent and inoffensive men, and in some eases women anil children, his paternal benediction, and .without a syllable of censure bad them go in peace to their homes ! Over that scene of horrors his Grace had the heart to deliver this facetious oration, keeping his audience in a roar of laughter, while all ground him laytbe dead and dying. We are for the largest amount of religious and civil liberty, but, it will soon become a question whether Archbishop Hughes and his Catholic gangs are to be allowed to rule and riot over the largest city of America, and not content with electing rulers of their own stvjpe appealing to mob law besides. It is a serious , question whether such a city as this shall bej allowed the privilege of self-government. Blither let it be made over to the State, to be continued by the strong arm of exterior law. It his boon a free aud open asylum for tho crowded shiploads of Popish emigrants, that annually seek our" shores, and this is the gratitud i that rewards us. How iriuch longer shall hese abused privileges bo continued?— Ameri'an Baptist. THE LOV: There is a-story of a nobleman who,- finding his, housekeeping b,i Is in a very inflamed state, determined upon , ddsperatc measures, .and sent for, his cook, .When, tfie artiste in cap and ap ron obeyed the summons,jbe was asked by his master in a soft, confidential tone, howmuchhe iriade yearly outrif jiiaplabe beyorid the wages paid him. Tlie cook, wtio’ was a frank arid conscientious man; reckonedxip his commissions, and his gains upon truffles and fish and other miscellaneous importations, and Ms sales of pro perty, by strained suppositions, held to be use less; and he made but his gains at something more than £lOO a year over,his wages? “ Very well,” said his logical, master, ‘.‘you are-an excellent cook, rind|f carift afford'to lose yoti or displease you. But this £lOO a year must all come out of my pocket, and cannot cost me less than £2OO, frr youmust be dividing the profit of waste with my tradesmen. - Now suppose I add; the £lOO a year to-your wages, and yon undertake to protect riiy interest against every one else, and take no profits, or commissions or perquisites of any kind?” The story goes that the cook was at first stunned by the violent no velty of the proposition, then hesitated "but finally declined the offer as'“ contrary to his principles.” He could not live without doing a little job now and then. , The 10 per cent, upon an unneces sary ewt. of meat Was sweeter than double the money in coarse, commonplace wages. ,The half-crown gained by a sort of white robbery is better than five shillings received in a plain matter-of-fact way. ...
