THE ANGEL OF SLEEP.
He droops his plumy, snow soft wings,
He waves his balmy hand,
And wide the gate of silenoe swings
That guards the shadowy land.
Forgot is time, the sentinel
That stands outside the door;
Tbc gloomy train of cares as well
-, That clogged our steps before ;
Oh river of o blivion
Thy draughts are sweet and deep,
For Memory slumbers on her throne,
. Rocked by the angel Sleep.
There is a face whose loveliness
Is marred by hues of care ;
But Sleep has swept it with his kiss
And made it smooth and fair.
There is a worn and weary brain
That rests until the morn 1
There is a heart that beats with pain,
That feels no more forlorn.
Oh, Death's fair brother, how divine
Must be that slumber deep,
More sweet, more calm, more free than
thine,
Whei his beloved sleep.
"MISTAKEN IN THE PERSON."
"My dear, you'll be very particular about
the dinner," said Isaiah Southmayed, toast
ing his coat tails before the ruddy breakfast.
fire. "And I beg and entreat of you, don't
let Peggy spoil the wild ducks."
Mrs. Southmayed rubbed her forehead in
a sort of bewildered perplexity. She was
a plump, over-dressed little matron with
round, blue eyes and pug nose, not unlike
a Dutch doll. Isaiah Southmayed had
married her for the five thousand dollars
that seemed boundless wealth to him when
he was a struggling clerk at three hundred
per annum—therefore it was rather unrea
sonable that Isaiah Southmayed should be
annoyed at the absence of brain's under her
pink cap ribbons. He had not bargained
for brains—what right had he to expect
them? But men have been unreasonable
since the world began, and Isaiah was no
exception to the ordinary rule.
"Yes, dear,"said Mrs. Southmayed,oerv
ously clattering among her china cups and
s aucers. "The soup ala Julienne, with
plenty of pepper--and the fish stewed in
wine—and—and the best silver, and the
table-cloth with the crimson border, and
the blue silk coverlet on the bed—and—"
"There, there, that will do," said Mr.
Southmayed, petulantly. "You never will
have a spark of system, if you live to be a
hundred years old. It's strange I can't ac-
Custom yon to a more methodical way of
Olin
"I am sorry, dear," said the lady,
meekly, "but you know, Just as you were
telling me, yesterday, Charley's wife came
in to ask for plain sewing, and really my
poor head got so confused, that--"
"Charley's wife!" roared Isaiah, whirl
ing round so rapidly that his coat tail
narrowly escaped a conflagration, "There
you go again, Mrs. Southmayed. Didn't I
expressly charge you not to mention Char
ley or his wife? 'Sdeath, madam! you'll
have 'em out before your Cousin Reming
ton, as sure as you're alive."
"I didn't think, Isaiah—l!m very sor-
E 731
"You'll have cause to be lorry, ma'am r
tannelated Isaiah, growing very red is the
face. "I don't want Raymond Remington
to know anything about Charley. Let him
suppose that Charley is safe in California
where ire ought to be. Confound the lazy,
idle fellow. I don't believe he's a bit sick
er than am. I think that when a man
gets to that stage of life when he's bothet
ing all his relations for money, he ought to
be ghat up In some public institution—l do,
upon my word."
"He's your brother, dear," mildly sug
gested the Dutch doll of a wife, who evi
dently,had a little heart somewhere in her
internal mechanism, "and poor Fanny
wears such shabby bonnets."
"My brother Is that any reason he
should pester my life out of me, with his
everlasting begging notes and letters, and
his old white bat bobbing about among the
clerks in my office? I'll put a stop to it,
once for all—l will, Mrs. Southmayed."
"But Fanny tells me she only wants a
little work to keep them from starvation.—
There are six little ones, Isaiah, and—"
"Fanny tells you the moon is made of
green cheese, and you believe Itl"irately
Interrupted her husband. "Charley's
coming to my office this afternoon, and It
will be for the list time. The idea of hts
asking me to employ that tall starving girl
of his as governess to my children." -
Mrs. Southmayed was silent, Ip her own
secret heart she would much have preferred
gentle Clara Southmayed to the French
mademoiselle, who domineered over the
whole family and wore green spectacles and
false curls; but she had long since learned
that ber will must bend before that of her
Imperative lord and master,
"What time will you have dinner r' she
asked quietly.
"Well—six will probably be sufficiently
early. The Iberia comes in at four—and of
canine Mr. Remington will send for me
immediately. Now, don't forget the port
wine sauce for the ducks—nor the fresh
currant jelly—and see to selecting the rai
sins and almonds yourself, my. dear. That's
all I remember just now—but if any im
provement should suggest itself to me, I
can easily send up a note from the office."
And Isaiah Southmayed loftily put on his
hat and went ou t, a portly and well-to-do
specimen of the New York merchant.-,-
Nor need he have taken to ltirhaelf so tpticik
inward credit for hie present mood of se
rene good humor with the' world at large. ;
Now men are goodhumored who come from
a bright Are, after a breakfast of real old
Java coffee, with broiled chickens and hot
rolls.
Breakfast at Charles Bouthmayed's was
quite a different affair.
"Mamma, can I have a little more molso

"Hush, •Tommy," said Clara, with judi
cious learning, "mamma has no more mo

"If Tommy don't likehis bread without

"Why don't you have milk and water

a toss of her head. "Much good it will
do, to appeal to Isaiah. A hard-hot:Med,
cold-blooded, money-worshiping—"
"My dear—my dear," Interrupted th e
poor invalid, "he is my brother."
"I can't help it," sobbed Mrs. Bonthmay.;
ed, "he has no more heart than a block of
stone: Clara, bring me the rolls of work,
dear."
"Are they soldiers' clothes, mamma ?"
questioned curious little Tommy. "Are
you going to sow on that pretty yellow
braid ?"
But Mrs. Bouthmayed did not answer.—
She knew that she must sew diligently all
the hours of the short winter day, to earn
the forty cents which were to feed the hun
gry child-mouths around her.
"Carriage, sir? carriage ?" "Have a
nice hack, sir—take you all the way up
Broadway for two dollars ?" "Carriage
sir? the beat house ?" "Now, then, air,—
here's your man."
The Iberia had finally moored her pond
erous length in the blue sparkles of the
Bay, and the little steamboat had just
broaght the eager passengers ashore.—
Amid the tumult of the piers, the rattle of
stages, and the distant roar of Broadway,
old Raymond Remington stalked through
the crowd, with his hat slouched over his
eyes, and his hands, clasped behind his
beck, as placidly as if be were still among
tie bending palms and feathery acacias of
the far East.
"No use pestering' that old hove, Jim 1"
ejaculated a hackman to his persistent part
ner, who was following the saffron-faced
stranger, with vehement praises of some
equipage. "I ain't sure that sort o' fellow
puts money in our pockets."
Raymond Remington smiled grimly to
himself, as he mentally acknowledged the
truth of the man's inference. Yet, the
rich old East Indian could probably have
bought up half the passengers of the Iberia.
He sat down by the hastily kindled,
smoky fire of the hotel-parlor, =con
sciously shivering in the wintry draughts.
"And this is what I've looked forward to,
for thirty years—thirty years," mused Ray
mond Remington, with a cold thrill of dis
appointment at his heart. "There's no use
disguising the fact that this isn't just what
I used to dream about when I first went out
to India, They say money can do anything
—can it buy rue a welcome ?"
He sat motionless a moment, then started
up with a sudden impulse.
"I'll go out and see Isaiah flouthmayed—
Isaiah and I were boys together, and Char
ley. Poor Chat ley ! Isaiah writes me he
is in California, doing very well. I wish
he could have been here to shake his old
friend's hand—l used to be Amid 13 Charley.
Isaiah's well enough, but somehow I can't
divest myself of the ides that it's my mo
ney he's counting. Perhaps I've grown
distrustful and doubting—it's very- possible
—but Charley used to be my favorite cons-
in. "
Raymond Remington walking through
the surging current of Broadway, in his old
accustomed way, with his eyes bent on the
pavement, and his hands clasped in one an
other behind him, felt more ancimore lonely
and disheartened as the dusk closed drearily
over the great Babylon of sight and sound
and the gae-lantps began to glimmer liki;
yellow stars through the twilight. The city
had chenged_alsnost m y—the splen
did streets of his boy were dingy and
deserted now, and new thoroughfares bad
risen in glistening rows of marble and
brownstone.
"It didn't seem like coming home," pon
dered the yellow-faced East Indian, more
disappointed than he was willing to conlbss
So himself.
There was but one -shaded light burning
in the little back office, dedicated to Isaiah
Southmayedis special use and benefit, and
the clerks in the countinghouse beyond
glanced furtively over their shoulders and
Whispered to one another various private
opinions respecting the "awful bad temper"
of their chief, on this particular evening.
Isaiah Southmayed was cross—and . per
haps not without reason. Six o'clock was
approaching, and no note had been received
from the rich East Indian, summoning his
obsequious' relative to attend his leisure—
moreover, he . had too good reason to hs
lieve that the ducks were epo ig, and the
fish stewed in wine would be a total failure.
"It's very singular—it's positively miac
countable," said Isaiah Southmayed to him
self for at least the ninth time within tile
half-hour. "Now then, sir, what's want
ing ?"
For a pale-faced clerk with a quill be
hind his ear had insinuated his head meekly
through the half-open door—
"If you please, sir, a gentle—l—l mean
a man, wants to speak with you."
"A man. Eiaten't I said I wouldn't see
any one to-night, you idiot ?"
"Please sir, he says he's a—a relation of
yona, sfr,'
Isaiah caught up his big office ruler vin
dictively, but restrained his inclination to
throw it at the offender's head, luckily re
membering in time, that Michael Arnott
was a new clerk, and consequently not an
experienced one,.
"It's that begging rascal, Charley," roar
ed Isaiah, losing all self-restraint in his
towering passion. "I'll settle his business
for him. Send him in, Arnett."
The spare, bowed figure, wearing, by
some curious coincidence, just such a white
hat as Isaiah had anathematized as belong
ing to poor broken-down Charley, bad
scarcely crowd din tbresliold of the dark
ened bank office before the , indignant -mer
chant gave loose to his feelings.
"Don't come a step nearer, sir. Aren't

my clerks P I won't give you a cent—uor
I wouldn't if yon were starving in the gut

want you distinctly to understand that the

Charley. His own brother has repulsed
him from his door. Perhaps he'll be glad to
see old Raymond Remington I' ;
Mrs. Bouthmayed Was still stitching labor:
lousily at the soldiers' clothes; and poor
Clara, who had been out all day answering
advertisements for "a governess," was set
ting the table for a scanty evening meal ;
while the little ones playing quietly in the
corner;' and Charles Bouthmayed lay upon
the worn eofa, with closed eyes, thinking
sorrowililly of what &tuns lay before his be
loved ones, when be should be removed be
yond all care of trial.
"Mother!" ejaculated Clara, "some one
is knocking at the door. If it should be the
ems old grocer 'with his MIL And we
have no money!"
"But it Isn't the cross old grocer!" said
a hearty voice.
And in walked a tall, yellow-fa Ced man,
with his bands behind bit back, and two
little eyes sparkling genially beneath shaggy
eye-lorows.
"It's Raymond Remington—your cousin
—Charley Bouthmayed ! My boy, I'm glad
to see you!"
The East Indian had no reason to com
plain of the welcome accorded to him in
this humble little household ; for, in less
than Svc minutes, every child was clinging
about his knee—pretty Clara crying on kis
kind shoulder, and Marley and his wife
scarcely more self restrained. -
"rye come to the right hause, at last,"
thought old Raymond Remington, with new
happiness in his heart.
And when, the next day, Isaiah South
mayed's elegant carriage stopped at the
tel to convey Mr. Remington to his own
residence, the yellow-faced old gentleman
overwhelmed his relative with contrition,
by dryly reminding him of the once scene
the night before.
"My dear Raymond," ejaculated Isaiah,
turning white and red, "how could I - hive
made such a mistake 4"
"It was an awkward mistake—very,"
assented Remington, curtly.
"But you will accompany me home
now r'
"No ; I'm going to set up housekeeping
with my cousin Charley."
"But, my dear Remington," spasmodical
ly urged irouthowaced, "surely"—
. "I've made up my mind," shortly an
swered Mr. Remington ; don't fancy the
general style In which you address your re
lations, Isaiah. Poor Charley always was
my favorite; and you know," added Ray
mond, with a gleam of grim humor irradiat
ing his face, ti am not .bound to provide
for all my poor relations,"
And Isaiah Southmayed retreated, con
vinced that one little mistake had forfeited
him the golden gleam of those East Indian
hoards.
He did not reflect that his whole life was
"a mistake."
GOOD SPILL/ 0.-A pious but illiterate
deacon, in a certain town in Massachusetts,
gave a stage-driver a strip of paper, upon
which, he said, were written the names of
a couple of books, which he wished him to
call for at a book-store. The driver called
at the store, and handing the memorandum
to the clerk, said, "There is a couple of
books which Deacon B. wished you to send
him." The clerk, aster a careful examine
don of the paper, was unable to make "head
or tail" of it, and passed it to the book
keeper, who was supposed to know some
'thing of letters ; but to him it was also
"Greek." The proprietor was called, and
he also gave up In despair ; and It was final
ly concluded hest to send the memorandum
back to the deacon. It was supposed he
must have sent the wrong paper.. As the
coach arrived at the village Inn, the driver
saw the deacon itanding on the steps,
"Well, driver," said he, "did you get my
books to-day I"
"Books ! No I and a good reason why !
for there couldn't a man in Worcester read
your old old heti-tracks."
"Couldn't read 'ritin ? Let me gee the
PaPer• "
The driver drew it froin his pocket, and
passed it to the deacon, who, taking out and
carefully adjating his glasses, held the
memorandum ut arm's length, and exclaim
ed, as he did - so, in a very satialhotory
tone—
"Why, it's plain as thenose on your face.
"To 134-m Itm-x," (two psalm books !) I
guess his clerks had better go to school
Outer."
And here the deacon made some reflec
tions upon the "Ignorance of the times,'
and the wait of attention to books by the
"rising generation," which would have been
silvery well if said by some one else.
"Wont. noise is that?' said Mrs. Par
tington to Ike, as that hopelbi was looking
through the window at a crowd gathering
one evening in front of his mother's Orel
ling.
"They are giving three cheers to the
newly-married folks across the way," was
the answer,
thnateheers P' said the widow, an
her mind darted back to the wetting of her
own married life ; "only three cheers i It
seems to me they make a great fuss about
such a little thing. Why, sakes alive, I

your father, Isaac, and he boughtsix more

Ike gave a most nnfilial snicker ; but the

"Yee, Indeed, Little Blossom."
"Now, grandma, If you lore me so,
Omission me a story," said - Little Blossom,
in a sweet coaxing voice that no one could
ever resin.
"A story? Well, what shall It bb about
"0, a kitty, ors dog, or a baby. I don't
care which."
"Well, them, I will tell you s true" story
about a baby."
"Many years ago," said the good grand
mother, beginning her story, "in a warm
country, far away, there was a little boy
baby, who was just as sweet and lovely ft ,
I baby could be.
"His mother loved him dearly, and was,
no doubt, very proud of . him ; but she took
no pleasure In showing his sweet face to
her friends, or in carrying him about in the
fresh air and sunshine.
"Yon will not wonder when I teli you
that the king of that land was so wicked
that he said that all the boy babies belong
ing to the Israelites most be thrown into
the river.
"Nov the baby's mother was one of the
Israelites, and she was so much afraid that
the wicked men whoin the king sent would
find her baby, that she kept him hidden
away somewhere till he was three month.
old. By and by she found that she could not
hide him any longer. I Suppose because
he had grown to be such a great baby.
"Bo she made a basket of a kind of coarse
grass, called buirtuthes, and covered it on
the outside with pitch, so that no Water
could get in. Then she put the dear little
baby into the basket, and carried it down
to the side of the river, and hid it among
the tall grass that grew there. I dare say
she kissed her precious little one a great
many times before she left him there alone,
and her tears must have fallen like rain
upon his sweet faee."
"Of muse," said Little Blossom, "the
wicked men wouldn't think of looking
there for a baby. It was a very nice plare
to hide him."
"The little baby's sister," continued the
grandmother, "who was many years older
than he was, stayed all the time where she
could see what happened to him, and ,yt• t
she kept far enough away, so that If the
winked men came they would not know
what she came there for.
"By and by she really saw some ono
coming. It was the king's danghter, who
was walking along the side of the river with
her maids. She was going to take a bath
in the water.
"When she came near the high grass,
she saw the basket, and told one of her
maids to go and bring it to her. When she
opened it and saw the dear Bale baby with
tears In Its pretty eyes and a grieves loo!:
on its sweet face, her he.srt was touchel
and she said she would have this dear baby
for her own. She knew, of course, that he
was one of the Israelite children, and that
WAS he put there in that little snug hiding
place so that the wicked men whom her,
lather bent should not and him.]
."I suppose that she was quits• sure that
bar Wise would spare the life of this clear
little babe if she asked him, for, although
the king was a very *rue' man I have 0.,
doubt he loved his own daughter dearly.
"Then the little baby's sister, who wa,
looking on, with her heart beating (km, I
dare pay, asked if she should go and find a
nurse among the lintellte women.
"The king's daughter was very glad to
have her go, and the little girl ran and call
ed her mother. So the dear little baby was
given into its own mothers arms, and the
king's daughter told her to take care of him
for her, and she would pay her money for
her trouble.
"How glad the poor mother must have
been to have her dear little child once more
She took him home ; and was no longer
afraid that the wicked men would come and
carry him away.
"His loving slater could now play with him
out of doors or anywhere she chose, and no
oueliad to cry 'hush,' fOr fear the little one
would laugh or cry aloud."
"Because," explained Lilo Blossom,
"the wicked men were not hunting for him
now ; so it was no matter how much noLse
he made."
When be grew larger he went to live with
the king's daughter in a splendid home, and
she Balled him her son; but I have no
doubt he loved his own dear mother best,
and went often to see her.
"The king's daughter called Itim Moser„
because Moses meant 'drawn outr awl he
was, you know, drawn out of the water."
The little girl drew a deep breath of sat
isfaction when her grandmother finished
speaking.
"That's lust the sweetest 4 t01 7 r' said
abe, 'What a darling little baby that
was, and how cunning he must have looked
in his little grass basket; I thank you so
much, dear grandma, for telling it to me.'
Then Little Blossom sat quite still a long
time, thinking over the sweet story which,
although so often told, is always ea fresh
and full of interest to old and young.—
