Fairy Story for Little Ones. Prince Procrastination was always about to seek his fortune, but then he was long in starting. So at last his fairy godmother said to him : "1 have planted a rose in the gar den. It will bear only one bud. If you pick this. bud before it is fairly opened, you will find in it a dewdrop. But this dewdrop will never melt, and isms hard as steel. In fact, it is a fairy mirror, and, if you will look in it, you will see three chances for winning your fortune." - - The Prince who was very anxious about his fo4unc, Thaiiked his' god mother warmly, and . did little else but watch the rose till; it tjudcled. Just before the bud had opened, he plubked it, and found' in it the. deWdrop, as hard as steel; and looking in this curi ous mirror, ho saw,a.castlo ; and over the gate of, this castle burig,a banner ; and on the banner was ,written : "Who grasps me first shall lead: the king's • armies." , „ "This ie 'easily done," •said the Prince; "but ,where is this castle ?" again he42.aw the word q;liansimia." "Where Can llansonia be?" thought the Prince. "I must buy an atlas. I will go to town to-day and buy ono." But thdt. day it happened that the Prince•had a headache. So he said : _ "I will go the next day.". So the nexi, ilay he went; but just as he was going into tho book store, ho saw a man with some tiny white puppies. So ho said : •"I will go and look at the puppies, and slop for tho atlas on my way back." But when ho got back to the book•store, they had just soTiftbe last atlas; "hover mind," said the man, "we will send for a new lot." So they sent for a new lot and as soon as they arrived, the Prince found the country of Mansonia, and started off to find the banner. lie had been so long however, that I am sorry to say that, just as ho reached the tower ho saw another Prince helping himself to the banner. "Confound it!" cried the Prince in a rage, "this comes of having atlases! That book seller ought to be hanged ! Never mind. I have two more chan ces." So he looked in the dewdrop mir ror again, and this time ho saw a pear hanging in his own garden. 'Pick that pear," was written in the glass, "as soon as it is ripe, and you shall bo wise." "This is a better gift than the oth er," thought the Prince, and every day he used to go and look at the pear, and wonder how it would taste, and why it could make him wise, till it had grown so full and rich that there couldlio longer be any doubt of itripeness. Then he brought out a leader, and prepared to climb the tree; but just as he was going up ho saw a bee fighting with a spider. Ho was so curious to learn what they were fighting about, that ho went to watch them. When ho came back he met his lit tle brother coming down the ladder. "Oh, Pro! you ought to go up and eat some of those pears. I got a splendid ono." "Splendid one! which one ?" shouted the Prince. "Why, the ono at the very top— the big one Never tasted such a ono in my life I" "I wish it had choked you," an swered the Prince in a fury; this conies of having a younger brother,— However, I have ,one more chance left." . So he looked in the mirror again, and this time he saw only a lino of writing, and this is what it said : "Catch the third fish from the eea, And you yoc may lucky be." "Well, there is no such , hurry about this, anyhow," thought the Prince,-- , - "I can' catch threo fishes any , time, However, I will go to-morrow." But to-morrow the Prince's cousin came to see him; and on the next day ho sprained his ankle ; ar.d on the third day he was reading a book. Then he found that be had no hot Then he forgot to send to town for a not. When ho did send, it came home late at night, and the next day it rain ed. But the next day he wont to the sea shore, and mot a man just coming away, vith a wonderful: fish that look ed as if made of gold and diamonds. "Whore did you got that ?" asked the Prince. "Why," answered the man, • "every morning three fish, like this, used to come up on the beach, and, at last, I thought I would catch one." Two of them got away, but this third one I caught." Then the Prince knew that ho had lost his third chance, and he was very angry. ..This comes," he said, of "having cousins, and sprained ankles, and wet days, and meddlesome men. They all should be hung !" And went home in a rage.—/Tew York Mercury. Sing Away Your Grief. Henry Ward Beecher gives the following excellent advice: We can sing away our cares easier than we can reason thorn away. The birds are the earliest to sing in the morning; the birds are more without care than anything else I know of.= Sing in the evening. Singing is the last thing the robins do. When 14ey have done their daily work—When they have flown their last flight, and picked up their last morsel of food, and cleansed their bills on a napkin of a bough, and on a top twig, they sing one song of praise. I know they sleep sweeter for it. They dream music; for sometimes in the night they break forth in singing, and stop suddenly af ter the first note, startled by their own voice. 0, that we might sing evening and morning, and let song touch sung all the way through. As I was returning from the country the other evening between 6 and 7 o'clock, bearing a basket of flowers, I met a man that was apparently the tender of a mason. He looked brick and mor tal all over! * He had worked the en tire day, and he had the appearance of a man that would not be afraid of work. He was walking on with a light step, and singing to himself as he passed down the street, though he had been working the whole day, and nearly the whole week. Were it not that my good thoughts always come too late, I should have given him a large allotment of my flowers. If ho had not been out - of sight when the idea occurred to me, I should have hailed him, and said, "Have you work ed all day ?"' "Of coarse I have"' he would have said. "Are you singing ?" "Of course I am." "Then take the flower 3 home andrgive them to your wife, and tell her what a blessing she has in you." 0, that we could put songs under our burdens! 0, that we could extract the sense of sorrow by song ! Then tubes things would not poison so much. Sing in'the house. Teach your children to sing. When troubles come, go •at them with songs. When griefs arise, sing them down. Lift the voice of praise against cares. Praise God by singing; that will lift, you above trials of every sort. Attempt it. They sing in heaven , ; and among God's people uptin earth, song is the appropriate language of Christian feeling. WANTED—AN iIoNEsT, INDUSTRIOUS 130 y.—We lately saw an advertise ment headed as above. It conveys to evefkliby animpre"ssive moral lesson. "An honest, industrious boy" is al ways wanted. Ito will be sought for; his services will be in demand; he will be spoken of in terms of high commendation ; ho will always have a home; he wil grow up to be a man of known worth and established chur -1 actor. • Ho will be wanted. The merchant will want him for salesman or clerk; tho master mechanic will want him for apprentice or journeyman ; those with a job to let will want him foi contractor; patients will want him for a doctor; religious congregations, for a pastor; parents, for a teacher of their children ; and the people, for an officer. He will be wanted. Townsmen will want him for a citizen, acquain tances as a neighbor, neighbors as a friend, families as a visitor, the world as an acquaintance ; nay, girls will want him for a beau, and, finally, for a husband. "An honest, industrious boy !" Just think of' it, boys; will you answer this description ? Aro you sure that you will be wanted You may be smart and active, but that does not fill the requisition—are you honest ? You may be capable—are you industrious? You may be well dressed, and create a fa vorable impression at first sight; are you sure your friends, teachers and acquaintances can recommend you for these qualities ? • How would you feel, yoqr character not being thus established, on hearing the words : "I can't employ you ?" Nothing else will make up 'for,these qualities. No readiness, no aptness for business will do. You must be honest - and industrious—must work and labor. .Will you calling and elec tion for places of profit and trust be made sure ,? How THE PARSON GOT , EXCITED.—A few: years since, near the city of,F—, in Connecticut, lived and preached old Parson P., who was excitable and near sighted. One day be had been in the city : with , his horse, and among his purchases was a barrel of flour, the head of which was partially out. • • On the way home the old man was overtaken and passed by a fast young man, driving a horse and putting on much airs. Now, the parson's horse was usually a quiet, steady -going ani imal enough, but he couldn't stand that sort of thing; so he started after him of the first order, in good earnest. The jolting of the wagon at length jar red the head completely off the barrel, and the strong wind that was blowing directly after the parson, blew the flour all over him and the horse. At last the fast young man was left, and the village reached; butithe speed of his horse was not checked. In driving through a street to reach his home, he came in contact with one of his deacons, who was naturally sur prised to see his minister driving at such a pace, and signaled him to stop. "Why Parson P—," said he, "what on earth is the matter? You seem greatly excited." "Excited !" yelled the old man, '•ex cited 1 Who in h-1 wouldn't be exci ted ? Snow storm in July. Got up, Dobbin."

No man seems to, me justified in violating the wishes of his consti tuents to please any other person, but ' if the person' thus indicated as their first choice should fail of a probability of election, or gradually decline, then, if 1 were there, or my wishes were to bo consulted, I should use all my" at forts in favor of B. P. Wade. Ho is a true man, in whom you and I and every radical man can confide, and you will find that the country, as well as our particular- friends, will profit by his success. I wish you would show 'this letter to your colleagues. I shall be kept from the Convention, but de. sire to see an honest man placed in that position of great contingent re sponsibility. .A's to the candidate for the Presidency; I presume you all agree that none-other than Gin. Grant is to be thought of. Honest, firm, and well-indoctrinated in principle, with. , out ostentation and without pride, I do not well see how . a better selection can be 'Made. His jiidgme:nt ofiimon is iso sound that-I have tuff faith that he will call around -hi m the ablest and purest men of the „nation. With Grant and Wade to guide and defend us, this nation; in four year will have acquired a prosperity which will -be the wonder of the world. Universal, freedom maintained by universal suf frage, on this continent f onnnot fail to have that effect. Very .respectfully pact, ... Jape,. • TUADDEpS, STEVENS. • To It. J. HOUSTON, Esq.., Lancaster, Ponnsylvania. GENERAL GRANT AND TEMPERANCE:— The following is from the New York Sun. Mr. Dana, the editor, was with Gen. Grant, in the field, nearly two years, and knows whereof he writes : "Gon. Grant has been accused of in temperance. The , Democrats fight him with talk about his alleged .bad habit, just as the rebels fought him with powder and ball in war; but the case is sot, right in a Hale speech which tlie'Hon. W. E. Dodge made on Thursday evening. • Mr. Dodge said that he had just been in Washington, and had a long-interview with Gen. Grant, mid, continued he, "I left him with the conviction that neither we nor the friends of temperance have any cause for anxiety in this respect." Mr. Dodge is President of tho Nation al Temperance Society, and no one can be more hostile to everything ap proaching intemperate habits in a pub lic man. The truth is that the prac tice of • Gen. Grant is total abstinence. In camp he—almost alone, among all the prominent officers of- the army— noVer tolerated liquor or wino either atlis table or about his tent. Fatigu ing marches and the excitement and exhaustion of battles did net make him break over his rule, not to touch or take anything alcoholic. Again and again we have seen wino offered him at public and private dinners, only to be steadily-refused. We are assured that now in time of peace, and in the society of Washington, he still main tains the same custom. His enemies must invent some other story. The people will never believe that General Grant is a drunkard; and if, from not personally knowing Grant, they are not sure of the facts, thew will answer as President Lincoln did, "Lot me know what kind of whisky Grant drinks, and I will send a barrel to every one of our generals.'" NOT SO BAD AS HE TIIOI/011T.—The following story is told of a gallant na val officer :—Twenty or thirty years ago, when missionary enterprise was in its infancy among the islands of the South sea, Captain Summers an. chored his sloop of-war off one of the Marquesas._ The' next morning, - he' saw au American flag on the beach, Union down: This excited him fear fully, of course, and he sent off a boat: at once to inquire into the matter.— Presently, the boat returned, bringing with it a grave looking missionary.--! The Captain's anxiety ran high. He said :• "What's the trouble out there, quick ?" "Well, I am grieved to say, sir," said the missionary, "that the natives have been interrupting our sacerdotal exercises." "No i Blast their yeller hides I I'll —what—what was it you said they had been doing?" "It pains me, sir, to say they have been interrupting our sacerdotal exer. cises." - "Interrupting your—your—h-11 ! Man them starboard guns I Stand by, now, to give 'em the whole battery !" The astonished clergyman hastened to protest 'against such excessively rigorous measures, and finally succeed ed in making the old tar understand that the natives had only been guilty of breaking up a prayer meeting. "Oh, devil take it, man," said the Captain, "is that all? I thought you meant that they'd stopped your grog !" 6i " 'You lost your leg in the army, you say. What did you gain by it 7" asked a gentleman of a prisoner. "Single blessedness, sir, he replied, "for after that no woman would mar ry me."
