anniversary marriage days.
Lord, living hero are we,
As fast united yet
As when our hands and hearts by Theo
Together first were knit.
And in a thankful song
Now sing we will Thy praise. ,
For that Thou dost as well prolong
Our loving as our days.
Together we have now
Begun another year;
But how much time Thott wilt allow
< Thou make’st it not appear;
Wo, therefore, do implore
That live and love we may,
Still so as if but one day more
Together we should stay.
Let each of other’s wealth
Preserve a faithful care.
And of each other’s joy and health,
As if one ; soul we were.’’
Such conscience let us make,
Each other not to grieve,
As if ,we daily were to take
Our. everlasting leave.
The forwardness that springs
From our corrupted kind,
Or from those troublous outward things
Which may distract the nuhd, ; i.
Permit thou not, 0 Lord; 1 \ r
Our constant Love to shake?;
Or to disturb our true accord,
Or make our hearts to aeho.
But let these frailties prove:
Affection's exercise;
And that discretion teach our love
Which wins the noblest prize. :
So time, which wears away,
And ruins all thibgs else;.
Shall fix our love on thee for aye, .
On whom perfection dwells.
MEGGIE, THE COVENANTER-
Nearly a hundred 'years ago, there s Stood on
the south shore of tho bay of Cromarty a mill;
and close by, the miller's cottage.-, The miller,
“Johnie o’ the shore,” lived in the cottage aloße
With his Sister; attending to his mill for business, 1
and writing verses for recreation 1 ; and when he
died, and the mill was torn down, and rebuilt in
another place, “Meggie of the shore ” remained
in the little cottage by herself; “She Was as
poor,” sayS ohe, “as It is possible for a! contented
person to become;” for great gain, you know,
comes with contentment and godliness, and
Moggie had both. She; was as neat, ,as clean, as
hospitable as could be; and the inside of her
poor cottage-had even a sort of tasteful arrange
ment. You might think that: she’Would be
afraid to live 1 there aloud, —but no: she was never
afraid. Even though she believed in ghosts and
Witohes find a great many such, (things; as people
did in those old, times, they caused her no fear.
“I have been taught,” she said, 1 “that God is
Bearer to me than any other spirit can be; and
so have learned not to be afraid.”- The wildest
storm, that came howling among.the cliffs; the
lodifest thunder of the waved upon..tie beach,
never disturbed her. And it. was worth- while
to take a long walk to Meggie's cottage, for she
could talk wouderfnlly aboht those heavenly
things that kept her in .peace. A gehtlettiaji
Came from Cromarty one day, at noon; and in the
pleasure of her words and society he sat talking
till evening. , Then as he- got, ,up,.to ; go away
Meggie hesitated a little, but asked him if he
would not eat with her. “It was the feast of
tho promise,” she said—“ ‘ Thy bread shall be
givetl thee, and thy water shall be sure;’” for
all she had to set before, him, was a pitcher,of
water and half a cake of bread. Yet Meggie
said perhaps it was better for her to be poorer
than she used to be: for now when she had fin
ished one meal she could not • forget that the
Lord had pledged himself to give her the-next
Meggie was a real old Covenanter, and thought
that no new thing should be brought into the
“kirk” Service, and no thought of the world’s
business into the kifk itself. To her feeling, it
Was the highest desecration to read even an Act
Of Parliament in Church; for both “the .gold,
and the temple'that sancifieth the gold,” were
sacred in her eyes. AVhat she would have
thought to see concerts dud lectures and speeches
permitted in the house of God, I cannot even
guess. But one Sabbath, it chanced that her
own favourite minister came down from the pul
pit after his serinon, and began to read an “ Act”
some merely puhliO biisihesh. k Per
haps if she had esteemed the liiinistet 1 less, Meg
gie would have been quiet; but as it was, she
jumped up, caught the paper from lits hand, and
tramped it under her feet. , Of course the town
authorities would not permit such doings, dnd
Meggie was sent to prison-for three days; but
os all the best people in. the country, as well as
the came thereto visit her, I
fancy they,' did not think Meggie’s zeal, was
atuqh out of the way.- ,
Meggie lived to be very, very old'.; One
-day a friend on a jdurriey balled in to sed Ber.
The little cottage, and her own dress, were as
neat and in order as possible but Meggie looked
pale. -i '£ '' "'' 4
“ Are yqu unwell, Meggie,?” said her friend.
" Perha|y I 'ain not qtute well,” sne answered,
".bats! shall be very soon. You must take
breakfast with me."
The gentleman did not refuse, for Well he

THE CHILD 01 OUR SABBATH SCHOOL.
Maria was deformed—-her poor body was sadly
twißted ; but Godwas reducing all to order and
beauty in her soul, add quiet joy and peacelook
oAout from her eyes. When I first visited the
Sabbath school she attracted my attention at
once, both by her deformity and by the quickness
or her answers, , She was always dressed with
very great care—toq great l used to think, and
evincing in those early days of my acquaintance
with her, some of that vanity which is often found
m, deformed. persons. But this, with other de
tects, was removed as she slowly ripened for hea-
Tu’ f T7 aS th< i only child ot ' her infidel father,
who doted upon her. Her heart was so set upon
attending the Sabbath* school, that he could not
Thm» i rie^ e fierby refusing his permission.
L h rf° t n aS . Sai L ed \ t home by tho infidel scoffs of
her fathers shop-board, she would never, if she
could help it, miss her teacher’s lesson.
■ Jtvery week she. drank in truth, and the child
grew more in faith than the mao grew in unbelief.
It never ocurred to her to argue with her father.
Happy for both that it did not; but she learned
her hymns m his presence, and repeated her ver
ses of Scripture, and often he could hear her
prayingm her litte room; and she prayed for him,
of that he could be sure. She never told him
so, yet jt was .dUrious to see the conscious look
that his face wore as she came down stairs.
All this was silently telling. The citadel of
doubt was being undermined by the simplest
means: The edifice he had built up with such care
•was crumbling away under this, quiet influence.
With his former associates he tried to be still the
man he had been, but even before them bis heart
began to fail him.
A year passed away, and Maria grew greatly
in grace. She was anxious to become a commu
nicant, and to commemorate the death ■of her
Lord. She attended: with deep interest the class
es which were held’ for the instruction of those
who wished to become communicants. A week
before the time appointed she pras taken ill. She
feared that she would not be able to be present,-
but She was so desirous of receiving the commu
nion in the house of God, thatl believe the mind
■supported the body, and for a few repressed
'thedisea.se’ It was'a solemn sight to see the
poor fragile form of Maria approach the table,
supported by her former Sabbath school teacher.
She ate and drank in remembrance of her Lord,
and then went home to yield to the sickness and
to die ! ~'But while the body grew more feeble,
faith and hope and love grew stronger , and
brighter every day. j They were too: strong, for
the darkness, and drove it from the house.
They appealed to' the love in the]'father's heart
—Appealed, too, to his’ sense of what was lovely
qnd gre%t and heroic/—•"'The strong man armed
trembled in hisopailace.” That! constant forget
fulness of self, that meekness and patie|ice; ’that
sympathy and strong hope and triumphant ex-
[things were constantly assail
ing, with irresistible iforce, the bulwarks of un
belief, which crumbled before them.
One evening Ms work was, finished, and-he
came into the inner room, in which Maria was.
She was sitting up iu bed; reading;—He saw that
it was an effort to her an'd said, tirp your
self with reading—l will rhad to you. What is
your book ?” The next moment his eye recog
nized it. She handed it to him with a look’of
thankfulness, and in silence he took it. He held
it open In Ms hands’, as if he scar’eely knew what
to'do with it. At last making] an effort he said,
'‘Where shall I read to you, Maria?”
“I was just going to read the fourteenth
chapter dftJohn. Will you read it to me ?”
He read it slowly and thoughtfully. It was
loUgSinephe had read the Bible.—He bad m*
deed sometimes'road it, but how and why ?.. To
find something against which he might’ object)
—the sins of good men,'plainly told in the Bible,
and the accounts of’ ; miraculous occurrences.
But now he islfeading the words of love ,l and
sympathy spoken by the Saviour: “Let not your
heart be troubled) ye believe’in God, believe
also in me. In my Father’s house are many
mansions) if It were not so il would .have told
you. Lgo;to prepays a place .tfpivypu. And if
I go and prepare a. place for; you, X will come
again) that where I am, thercye may be also.”
He looked at Maria. - Her eyes were looking up,
as jif in prayer and praise. He scarcely, dared to
trust himself to speak, for Ms heart was very
full. At last he said, “Shall I read any more ?”
In answer the little thin wasted hand was placed
on bis and the tearful eyes that yet looked so
full of love and triumph were turned upop ffim.
v “Father,” she said, “I must speak.' He is
my Saviour, 7— l want hi™.: to. ,he
ale mariy jhansions in his Father’| kingdbm'fhtf,
ask him to prepare one for you! And is he not
loving?” she continued. “He does not say,‘l
will bid an angel prepare a place,’ or ‘a place
shall be ready,’ but he himself prepares it.
Father, when I am gone you must let him be
your Saviour as be is mine. 1 have never ven
tured to speak to you before, but I have prayed
for you night and day. That you and dear
mother might love the Saviour, has been the
earnest cry of my-heart. I feel that I could not
die without telling you this. Father, before I
die, will you promise mo to pray to Jesus?”
The citadel was crumbling now, rio doubt of
that! The tears were falling hot and fast —his
tears—Upon her.pcior .worn‘hand. J Just then her
mother came im-aud- wondered at the stillness.
“Mother,” said she, as she stretched out her.other
hand,'“l want father and you to, love Jesus, and
to follow me to that home’ to- which he is calling
me.” -.
“I do love him a little,” was the reply, broken
by Sobs. , “How cpuld I be,jin the bquse with
you and not think about Him, ■ who .made ujy
child so happy ?” Maria’s look then; the, father
has told me was wonderful. - Such love and awe
and thankfulness he never saw/in any fade before
or since. '
“Father dear and mother,”. were bef;. words,
and they‘were spoken with difficulty, “kneel once
by my bedside before I die.”—She had no need
to ask twice. They are kneeling now. ’’Oh,
what, a sight for the angels! A feeble, deformed
child leading her parents into the Way of life!
And then slip lifted up her voice, feeble and
broken as it was, and prayed for them; First,
with what gushing tenderness she thanked God
for, .inclining the heart, of her, mother, to the
good way; and .then how simply she pleaded*
with Hod that he.would :be, the; Saviour oft both,
and bring them to the “pity of habitation,”
whither she was going.
Exhausted* she lay back on her pillow; but her
lips were moving in prayer. [ That, nighf she died.
Calmly and without a struggle her; spirit passed
away 1 Her work- was done; and the Master had
called her to come up higher;.-, There, With no
deformity to vex her, ho trials to annoy, no .Suf
ferings to hqrrass her, she,dwells'with tie .Lord
whom she loved. /.h-,,-
. She paid to her parents: on that last-day that
she would expect them i'h' hesrveit- " And they
both followed after. Ipfidelityfcould not survive
that attack. It was the work of the -Holy Spirit
—the triumph of-his grace. Her father’s old
companions were abandoned:: he.frequqated the
house of God, beeame teachable as a little child,
aqd humbly followed in the steps of-his deformed
but lovely child—“the child of our Sabbath
School.” —From a tract issued hy the London

ANECDOTES OF BIRDS
There is much more, intellect in birds tbau
people suppose. An instance kf that occurred
in a slate quarry belonging to a friend from whom
jf havejhe narrative. A thrush, not aware of
the expansive'properties of
proper to build her nest on a ridge of tne quarry,
in the very center of which they were 1 , constant
ly blasting tne , rock. At first : sh|r|tvas,'vpry
much discomposed by the fragments flying in all
directions, but dhe would not quit ber chdsen
locality. Shesoon observed that a [ bell rang
whenever .a train was about tp .be fired,, aud.thVt,
at the* notice,,'tlie workmen retired to 'pate pos
itions. j In a few days, when-she'heard the bell,
she quittep her exposed situation; and flew down
to where j the workmen sheltered themselves,
dropping close to their feet. .There
remain until the explosion had taken place, and
then she returned to her nest. , The, workmen
observed this, and narrated it, to their employers,
and it was also told to visitors who came to view
the quarry. The visitors naturally expressed a
wish to witness so curious a specimen of intellect,
opt as the rock could not .always be ready to,he
blasted , when visitors came, the bell was ran*
instead, and for a few times answered the same pu£
pose. The thrush flew down close to where they
stood; but she perceived that she was trifled with,
and. it interfered with her process of incubation;
the consequence was that afterwards, when,: the
bell was rung, she would peep over the ledge to
ascertain if the workmen did retreat, and if they
did not she would remain where she was, proba
ly saying to herself, “No, no, gentlemen; I’m
not to be roused off my eggs for your amuse
ment. Some birds have a great deal of humor
in, them, particularly the. raven. .One that be
longed to 'me' was 4 the most mischievous and
amusing creature I ever ittet with. He would get
into the flower-garden, go to the beds where the
gardener had sowed a groat variety of seeds, with
Itmnifiui tilth ail it Mplisii
sticks put in the grouud with labels, and then
he would amuse himself with pulling up every
stick, and laying them in heaps .pf ten or twelve
on the path. This used to irritate the old gar
dener very much, who would drive him away.
The raven knew that he ought not to do it, or .he
would not have done it. He would soon'retura
to his mischief, 'and when the gardener, again,
chased him, (the old man could not walk very
fast,) the raven would just keep clear of the rake
or hoe in his (liand, dancing back .before, him,
and singing 'as, plain ,as q man pduld, “Tot de
rol de rol! tol de rol do rol!” with all kinds of
mimicking gestures! The bird is alive now and
continues the same meritorious practice when
ever he can find’an-opportunity. — Mar'yail.
OVERTAKING A THUNDER STORM.
Mr. Willis, writing to ihoHomoJournal, from

To overtake a thunder shower,.whirl through
it, and outrun it, was the first of the day’s

THE TIME OF SOWING WHEAT
Robert' 3. Swan, Esq./ whose ‘thorbu||hiy un
derdrained^and_ beautiful farm ppar Geneva, N.
Y , we have frequently alluded to in' the Gene
see Farmer t writes us: ’ •
“Early sown : wheat looks bad owing to the
ravages of the Hessian .fly .last fall; late sown
wheat, (not too late,) looks' excellent.”
fhere;i|’’much ih*tbeS,e few l|nes [which merits
attention' 4 of ou’r’ wheat 'growers: l lf we l sow
eaidyj wp, run -.increased, risf: of. injury, from jffie
Hessian fly ;_if we/sow late,/thgre is,increased
danger of damagd from the midge. * To'Kit the
exact' strike the happy mediuth—re
quires great experience and close observation.
Probably no particular date can be given* that
would be hest at all seasons. Much must be'ees
sarily depend on the weather, the temperature of
the soil, &c. On this pqin t,‘ the remarks of Mb-
Spearing, given in, anbther column, .are worthy
of consideration. He thinks that in England,
wheat should not be sown* till the temperature of
the soil is reduced.to 50 deg. How far this re :
Shark Is applicable to* this 'Country; 1 we' hate ho
means,, of judging;- ( Th?, winters, ip England pre
far severe: than in -‘this,country, and it is .not
! so essential to sow early.. ’ Mr. Spearing’sremarks
have already given rise to some discusssioti on
this point,-and the MarA Lane Express says:
The general opinion is that the early sown
wheats commonly yield the best, and are the least
affected by.the changes of temperature.. Before
the turnip husbandry was introduced, and the
wheat was sown on the have fallow, early sowing
waskthe rule, and 'one .'of the- most 1 important
sources, of profit was the feeding of sheep upon
it, in the autumn, which was estimated at an
average value .of 20s. per acre, .pr ‘five sheep for
four weeks.per acre, at on e shilling pep week eapfl.
And if we are;to believe such.writers as Milieif,
and some others in the beginning* and middle ;of
the last ceflturv, the produce of those early so&n
wheats/was at least as good as is obtained by the
present; system. We, .of.course,- are pot advpea-,
ting a return to ;the»ancient system of husbandry;
but it is a question that will admit of much con
troversy, whether, where possible, it would'mot
be desirable to get the wheat into the ground at
least during the first week in September, by which
it would be enabled to become well rooted to en
dure the" winter's frosts, and, above all, to'avoid
the root fall, to which later sown wheats are pe
culiarly liable, from the roots nbt having taken a
sufficiently firm hold of the ground to prevent
the-earth- from falling;- away
hare when the March winds succeed to the frosts
of winter.
John Johnston,’ who is a neighbor of Mr. Swan,
in a communication to the! Country Gentleman,
confirms the truth of Mr Swan’s observations, and
furnishes some interesting facts, derived from his
long experience. He says: : - ;.
I notice there is much poor wheat around here.
True, there are some fields that are good, but I
fear there are more bad. I wrote you last autumn
that T thought'iniiie was ruined by the stalled.
He'sstamfljJ : it ! is a total failure and all biving-to
