HUNTINGDON, PA.
BY MRS. BERRY WARD BEECHER
In a recent number we defiled a
scrap of poetry with this siinificant
title. It struck us very forcibly as
containing a profitable lesson, and has
haunted us daily, ever since.
' We have been sitting, this rich, gol
den afternoon, on our veranda, all
alone. Before us stands the grand old
hill; on our right lies the beautiful
Hudson. The air is laden with rich
perfumes from a wilderness of flowers;
but no wind disturbs the trees, or
makes music in their branches. The
bees are so busy with their provident
labors that their song is very low and
gentle. The humming-bird, darting
in and out of the honeysuckle over our
head, though equally industrious, is
more demonstrative in his wonderful
activity. The patient old mother tur
key's "cluck, cluck," by which she
calls her numerous *brood about her,
and their "pe-ep, peep," in reply; the
self-conceited old gobbler,as he spreads
hie train and brushes the ground with
his wings, in faint •imitation of far off
thunder, or his arrogant "goble, goble"
in defiance of some imagined enemy;
the roll of the carriage, and the swift,
glad music of the horses' feet on the
smooth road below, are almost the on
ly sounds or signs of life we hear. The
husband "house•bond" the most
sweetly significant word in the Eng
lish language, is toiling in the hot and
dusty city; the children are all scat
tered; the grand children, mischievous,
merry little rogues, are not as they
should be, near grandma's chair; and
the servants, in the kitchen or laundry
today, move as quietly as the wind on
the tree-tops. It is so still ! We
could hardly be more alone if we were
on the highest peak of "Castle Hill,"
and, as we sit in this wonderful quiet,
those words, "If we Knew," are stir
ring our hearts with a strange and
solemn power.
Ah ! if in early youth "we knew !"
If we could look along the map of life
clear to the end, and see all the break
ers and quicksands which, by patience
and self-control we could have avoided,
how different would be the •view we
now take of the "backward track 1"
No doubt, it is well, in many ways,
that we cannot read the future ; trials
and sorrows that no skill or foresight
could have turned aside, would have
been doubled by anticipation and fore
knowledge; and yet—we doubt if there
are many, who looking back from the
"halfway house," would not willingly
endure the double pain and sorrow, if
they might have bad the power to
force the inevitable result of certain
courses, and profiting' by this fore
knowledge, have avoided the danger
of the sin.

Brother! Sister 1 Would you be
impatient or cross to your little play
mate, "if you know" those little "baby
fingers" would "never trouble you
again ?"
Two little boys were at play—one
of three years, the other but eight
months. Both wanted the rocking
chair. Full of health'arid'inimal spir
its, the dispute ran high, and, at last,
the older struck the little one. Only
a few days and the
- baby's hands were
folded in "snowy grace" upon the cold
and quiet heart, and laid in the grave.
A short time after, he - tiring bitter sobs
in the garden, the mother found the
lonely brother—himself but just past
babyhood—lying under the peach
trees, watching with eager eyes some
birds flying over,his head, and calling
between his sobs, "Oh, birdies! little
birdies! Fly up ! Fly up higher ! and
tell Jesus Christ if he will only lot
Geordie come back to me, he may
have the rocking-chair all the time;
and I will never, never strike him
again—never! never !"
Oh, Father! Don't be harsh,with
your son. He disobeyed your com
mands, and of
s ,course 'he has done
wrong; but he is only a little child.—
It was overflux of exuberant life, and
not:Wilful disobedience. If you could
look forward' to what soon may, be,

gently would you chide ~, by

Husband I you love your wife; yoU
would be indignant if a looker on
should hint that you misjudged, or
were over-exacting. Why do you
say such ugly, bitter things? Your
heart, or that Silent monitor, your
conscience, tells you that she did not
mean' to disregard your wishes or ad
vice. She was tired, or overtaxed
with care and frequent interruptionsl
or, perhaps sickness is creeping upon
her. Whatever the reason, the offense
was but a "little thing." Even if she
was self-willed, or irritable, be patient
with her. You know a certain tone of
your voice, or a love look from your
eye, would have brought her to your
side in an instant—sorry, self-upbraid
ing—loving and honoring you with
her whole heart. Ah, "If you knew !"
These first morose, fault-Mai:ling words,
perhaps are "leaving on her heartra
shadow—leaving on your heart a
stain" which may bo the beginning of
coldness, mistrust and ' defiance—or
possibly a deeper sin, where, but for
them, you could have secured joy and
gladness, growing sweeter and purer
dayby day! Deal gently. You, her
husband, can make her happy, loving
and good ; or you can make her irrita
ble, unloving and evil.
