THE OLD COTTAGE CLOCK. Oh! the old, old clock, of the household stock, Was the brightest thing and the neatest ; Its hands, though old, had the touch of gold, And its chimes rang still the sweetest, 'Twas a monitor, too, though its words were few, Yet they lived, though nations altered; And its voice, still strong, warned old and young When the voice of friendship faltered. " Tick, tick," It said—" quick, quick to bed, For ten I've given warning; Up, up and go, or else, you know, You'll never rise soon in the morning!" A friendly voice was that old, old clock, As it stood in the corner smiling, And blessed the time with a merry chime, The wintry hours buguiling; But a cross old voice was that tiresome clock, As it called at daybreak boldly, When the dawn looked grey o'er the misty way, Unless you're up soon in the morning. Still hourly the sound noes round and round, With a tone that ceases never ; While tears are shed fur the bright days fled, And the old friends lost forever ! Its heart beats on—though hearts are gone That warmer beat and younger; Its hands still clasped, though hands we love Are clasped on earth no longer . ; "Tick, tick," it said; "to the churchyard bed, The grave hath given warning ; Up, up, arise, and look to the skies, And prepare fur a heavenly morning !" COURTING THE WIDOW You must come with me to-night, Shir ley, and I will show you one of the most bewitching little wi,,ows you ever beheld. I am sure, woman-hater that you are, you will own yourself conquered at once. Say, will you come and see my beauty ?' No, I thank you,' replied his friend; 6 I have something to employ me, especially to-night ; but if 1 had not, Ellery, I should be off, for I have all of Weller's fear of the vidders.' 1 look on them as a most designing race—with their woe-begone voices and ever-ready tears for the ' dear departed.' If I should ever lose my senses so far as to marry one, I hope she at least had the honor of having her first husband hung, as I believe that would be the only means I should have to prevent his virtues being brought up in comparison with my faults.' 6Ea'ha !' laughed Ellery. All this tirade against widows drawn forth by my luckless invitation ! But you are entirely too verdant, my friend, on the subject. will bet you something handsome that you will fall in love with a widow yet. But, good evening, I must go and make myself killing , for, besides the widow, there will be lots of pretty girls at Mrs. Empton's to night ; and I always, for the honor of the 6 buttons,' look handsome.' This conversation was held at Shirley's room, where he was sitting, lazily impro vising on the guitar, when Ellcry gave the invitation. Though not a woman-hater, as his friend had stated, yet, from his retiring habits, he did not often seek the society of the ladies. When released from official duty, he preferred enjoying himself with books, music, and male friends, and this induced some of his brother-officers to be stow upon him• the cognomen of woman hater.' Where is the friend you promised to bring ?' inquired Mr,. Martin, of Ellery. 'I must confess that I have quite a curios ity to behold Lieut. Shirley, after all you have been telling me of him.' , I regret exceedingly not being able to redeem my promise,' he replied, , but a prior engagement prevented me from do ing so. How Ido wish you would enter into a little innocent plot of mine against him for a week or so. Say yes,' like the child's bargain, before I tell you.' , No, excuse me, Mr. Ellery—l shall do no such thing. Tell me, what is your plot ?' , Tell me, too, 'qr. Ellery,' said a young lady of about twenty, who approached, and whose merry eye betokened a kindred spirit to his own— , tell me, too, and I will answer for it that sister Juliette enters heart and soul into your plans, whatever they may be.' I shall be a thousand fold indebted to you Miss Jennie,' said Ellery. Well, now for my plot, or rather the outline of it, if you will accept my arm to lead you to that cosy seat ; for I 'must confess I should like some woman wit to\perfect my ideas.' None of your plots and conspiracies for me ; I'll have none of them,' said Mrs. Martin, the widow, as she left them to obey her aunt's previous request for music, and where we must leave her, seated at the fine toned piano, discoursing most ex cellent music, and holding her audience enthralled as if by magic. As for Ellery and Jeannie, they had no music in their souls'—at least, for the time, and were therefore the better fitted for treasons, stratagems and plots ;' in which we leave them engaged. I am sure, reader, had you seen Juliette Martin, you, like Ellery, would have called her a bewitching little creature.' Her delicate form, large, beautiful eye of light hazel, her brown hair, nearly approaching flaxen, needed not the cherry mouth, or complexion like the sunny side of a peach, to set her down at once as a beauty. Then her manner, too, was so soft, so insinuating, that you could not choose but love her.— She had married, at her father's command, a man whom she highly esteemed, if she did not love wir h a young girl's romantic furore, and whose sudden death had left her with an infant daughter, and a compe tency, alone in the world at the early age of twenty-one. Many offers of marriage bad already been refused by her, although she never asserted she did not intend marrying again. Jeannie Martin, her husband's young sister, was now on a visit to her; she re sided with her aunt, Mrs. Empton, and from her gay, cheerful disposition, had rendered herself a favorite with every one of their social circle. The plot disclosed by Ellery was not entirely revealed by Jeannie to her sister in-law at bed time ; although she obtained from her the somewhat reluctant promise of allowing her to personate the widow for a few :days, the farce beginning the next morning with an excursion planned to the country. 4 I do not ask you to fib, sister Juliette,' said the merry girl, 4 only .not to unmask me. I wish to tease that young fellow, somehow or other, for a pretty little speech of his that has come to my ears.' But I will not lend my aid in the least, if any one will be injured by your frolic,' said Mrs. Martin. I beg you not to frighten yourself in the slightest,' returned Jeannie. No one, I assure you, can be harmed.' Well, only for a few days, Jeannie. I think, however, you should let me into the secret, when you take my name.' No, no ! bid-a-wee,' said Jeannie. will promise you a merry laugh, one of these days, for its use.' Thus ended their conversation. The next morning Ellery came before break fast, to beg leave to bring a friend to take , the fourth seat in their carriage; which was the more readily granted, as Mrs. Euipton had already started with little Annie Martin and the essentials to where the pie nic was to take place. Dear old Mrs. Empton—she was certainly the nicest old lady on earth for a plc nic; always ready to attend to that most necessary part, the cating,s ;' but, withal so deaf, that never a word of anything did she hear unless shouted through her ear trumpet. About ten, the ladies were awaiting' their beaux. Ellery soon arrived, and oh, mirabile (Licht !' accompanied bo Shirley, whom, by some powerful eloquence, he had pressed into the service. In the hurry of setting out, and misled also by Ellery's description, it is not td be wondered at if he mistook Jeannie for the widow ; whilst the girlish-looking blonde answered his own idea of Miss Martin. lie, therefore, true to his prejudice, left to Ellery the task of entertaining her—the widow with the merry black eye—whilst he was him self enjoying the bewitching smiles and sweet toned warbling of his fair vis-a-vis Juliette. I am sorry that we can only offer you such poor fare, for your first dinner party with us, Mr. Shirley,' said Jeannie, in her assumed character, but a hearty welcome and our company is the extent you must expect.' This, of course, brought forth a polite disclaimer from the gentlemen, and with more truth than the generality of such speeches, for in the mile over which they had already passed, he began to think the widow's sister, at least, was particularly interesting. At this crisis, the sudden stoppage of the carriage, and the hurried exclamation from the driver of open the door, Mr. Ellery, quick, please, and get the ladies out!' showed that something was amiss. The widow screamed as she clung to Ellery's arm ; and even at the time of danger, Shirley could not but ad mire the calmness of the beautiful Juliette, for so he had heard her called, as she en deavored to soothe her sister. It was Ibund that one of the horses had got his foot over the trace, and was al ready rearing and plunging so as to make the carriage very unsafe. After some trouble they succeeded in extricating him ; but as both the horses continued very un ruly, the ladies proposed walking to their destination. So, forth they set, en route ; The widow pro teem on the arm of Ellery, and Juliette following with Shirley, chat ting and laughing. Insensibly Shirley's conversation with his fair companion iook a deeper tone, for their path led through a thick forest, where the tall, stately trees, like the pillars in some old hallowed minster, shed their pe culiar fragrance on every passing breeze that swept through their shade. Ellery and his lady were far ahead. Shirley felt surprised at himself, at this first interview; at feeling such a tender sentiment spring ing from his heart for the fair creature, leaning so confidently on his arm, in the depth of the forest. How glad I am,' soliloquized he,' 'that the widow did not fasten herself on me, in stead of her enchanting sfster ; for, joking aside, they arc always so exacting, and by no means dependent. There is certainly an exquisite charm in the timid reserve of this fair Juliette. Methinks I shall begin to play the Romeo in very truth ; for I wish, even now, that I might be a glove upon that hand, so that I could kiss her cheek." And Juliette, to judge from the bright smiles dimpling her soft cheeks, and the interested look which she turn ed upon his face ever and anon, was equally well pleased with her escort. What a delightful listener he found her. He felt so pleased with her—with himself—with the whole world, when they arrived at their destination, that Shirley was ready to declare it a perfect Paradise, and felt himself tempted to utter some such non sensical speech to her, so entirely was he bewitched by the charm of her manner.— In fact, vornan-hater as he styled him, there was not a more susceptible bein= on earth than this same retiring young man so he played the game into their own hands, a merveille. They foundprs. Empton, on hospitable thoughts intent,' busy in setting out to the best advantage their dinner, whilst near them lay the little cherub An nie fast asleep. Shirley more readily an swered the question, Did you ever see such a little beauty ?' from its supposed mother, as he imagined he detected a striking resemblance to Juliette, who was kneeling to kiss,the soft lips of the sleep ing babe ; and his look and tone would have satisfied the fond heart of any mother, as he replied, she is an angel !' and also stooped to kiss her lips. Elery and Jeanuie seemed determined to enjoy each other's society for that day at least, and thus Juliette and Shirley were thrown upon their own resources.— They, however, appeared well content, for he had told her of all his adventures by flood and field ;' whilst she was almost ready to exclaim with the gentle Des** mona, that she loved him for the dangers he had passed.' , What a delightful day it was to all, and especially to Shirley. The dinner, though plain, appeared to him delicious ; and what laughs the absence of man j 7 conveni ences cause ! How beautiful did Juliette seem in his eyes, as she held the little An nie in her lap, feeding her from _her plate, though begged by her sister not to tease herself with the child, but to give her to the nurse. Shirley could not refrain shar ing with the dear child some of the dainty little pate to which his neighbor had help ed him. There, there ! That will do Mr. Shir ley. I beg you will not give her any more. Carry her away, Lucy, or these good peo ple will kill her with kindness.' Thus was she borne off, notwithstanding her en- cc THAT COUNTRY IS THZ MOST PaosPEnotia WHEW; • :O: 00••..'DS T e : .y:T : : . : "—: tee . , , LANCASTER ' CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 21, 1858. treaties to stay with mamma.' Shirley had another thought to set down against the widow—her thoughtless unconcern to wards her beautiful child, as she sat smil ing, chatting, flirting so carelessly with Ellery, whilst Juliette went away occa sionally to see if the little one was properly attended to. About sunset they set out on their return, and the drive back was as delightful as the morning ramble, as they watcJed the early stars peeping forth, and he listened to tones that to him seemed sweet as the rippling music of the summer rills. He had, in truth, begun to see everything couleur de rose—and how true the words of the poet when speaking of the first step into love's labyrinth— Little we reok of our coming years— We fancy them just as we choose, For whatever life's after light may be, It colors its FIRST from the rose. Then the evening was as happy for him as the whole day had been ; for the ladies insisted that their escort should enter and spend it with them. When the tea was handed around, Shirley had the supreme felicity of putting sugar and cream into Juliette's cup, and better still, of sitting near her for several hours. Then, too, when tea was over, she was his antagonist at chess ; and he looked with delight on her taper fingers, looking still whiter by contrast with the red pieces she moved so daintily and skilfully over the board.— Her delightful voice was still lingering on his ear as he closed his eyes in sleep, for no other train of thought had broken the enchantment. His friend and himself did not talk much as they wended their way home that night ; but Shirley was not quite so morose as to decline his friend's invitation, given at parting, , What say you to calling on the ladies to-morrow, to see if they have recovered from their fatigue ?' The next day they did indeed call, and paid them an unconscionable visit--if one can trust Miss Henderson's account, who lived opposite, and who actually lost the whole morning, peeping through the blinds, to see when they would leave. And the next day, and again the next, Shirley had an ever ready excuse for calling. To-day it was, I must take those drawings 1 promised ;' at other times, , I have a piece of music which I must take,' or a new book ; till at last, grown bolder, he made no excuse at all, but visited there quite en famine—or, to use the prying neighbor's expression, as she watched with envious eyes the comings and goings of the hand some lieutenant— , he had hung up his hat there for dead certainty.' One morning he sat with his friend Ellery—it was two weeks since the open ing of this story—in the same room ; and his face now was not listless as then, but wore a preoccupied and rather troubled look, as, turning with a sigh to his friend, who was watching the wreaths of smoke curling over his head from his cigar, he said : Ellery ! what do you think will be my chance for success with Miss Martin ?' c Martin !' replied Ellery, with a provoking smile, as he knocked the ashes from his cigar deliberately against his boot, why, to be plain with you, my dear fellow, I think you have but a very slight chance. Take my advice—far better try the widow.' Oh ! hang the widow !' exclaimed Shir ley. But joking aside, why do you think so ? She appears to like me ; and, without vanity, I may be considered handsome and agreeable enough for any girl, with an un occupied heart, to love ; more especially when I woo.' • Ah ! yes. But there's the rub, Shirley. The un,ccupied heart ! There is no apart_ ment 'to let' in that heart, I flatter myself; at least, if I can trust to woman's vow, as I am inclined to do in this case.' What do you mean, Ellery That you love her—and that she—Pshaw !' You may 'pshaw' as much as you like, Sir Irresistible, but 'tis true, notwithstand ing ; I am myself engaged to that very same Miss Martin !' For once in your life be serious, Ellery, if you can.' Serious ! Well, if iou will not take my word, I'll swear to it, Shirley. And if you still doubt me, go and ask her yourself; I give you leave. But you had better take a friend's advice, and inform the wid ow of your matrimonial proposals whilst in the spirit.' Shirley came very near saying that which were better left unsaid, as he rose from his chair and paced up and down the room. Ellery sat smiling to himself, as, tilted back in his chair, with his cap set jauntily on the side of his head—he coolly finished his cigar—tempting the now irri tated Shirley, by his mocking air, to knock him over every time he approached. At last, having finished smoking, Ellery rose, and as he was drawing o his gloves, making ready for a start, he said, ' Come, my good fellow, don't be cast down. If you can't get alms Martin, take .Mrs. Martin. One of the name is as good as the same,' as the old saying has it ; and I really be lieve she has a fancy for you.' He did not stop to hear his friend's an swer, as he left the room, with a laugh.— Shirley continued his walk—now rapidly, then stopping, again fast—till he came to a dead halt in front of the window. 4 Impossible ! There is no truth in this world if it exist not in Juliette Martin.— I have heard her express an opinion con cerning Ellery, and even laugh at him, which no woman ever does at the one she loves. I will go, by George, and ask her indeed. If 'its true, then w:II I never trust womankind again !' And, walking to the glass, he brushed his dark locks as carefully as ever did one of the weaker sex ; and then, taking his gloves and hat, started for Mrs. Empton's. His own heart was thumping as loudly as the old-fashioned knocker to Lis nervous rap, as he stood on the door-step. He was ushered into the comfortable parlor, where the sun's rays came slyly in through the closed blinds, playing at hide and seek with the roses of the carpet, and where the red, glowing light from the fire fell upon the bright face of Juliette, as she sat on a low ottoman, playing with the - curly-headed Annie, whose silvery laugh was echoed by the mellow, cheerful one of her mother.— There was 'no one else in their room. After morning salutations, Shirley said : Has not Ellery been here ?' Yes,' she replied ; 4 he and my sister are out visiting.' Shirley moved his chair closely to the low ottoman. Excuse me,' he said, if I ask you one question, and do not, I beg, deem me impertinent; I entreat you to an swer me frankly, for I assure you my whole earthly happiness depends on the answer. Are you really engaged to Ellery?' Who !I, Mr. Shirley? You must be dreaming,' said Juliette, and she opene, her large dark eyes still larger in her sur prise, her face and neck coloring deeply as she met his glance. There is some mistake in this,' mutter ed Shirley. He told me, this morning, that he was engaged to you, and bid me ask you lo convince myself.' Why, the man must be crazed, surely. Yet I wonder still more at you in believing him. You to whom—' and again the face was bent over A.nnie's ringlets, to hide the tears swelling up in those eyes, whilst the child sat demurely listening, as if bound to recollect each and every word. I did not—l do not now believe him,' said Shirley; though he told me that he was engaged to Miss Martin.' A merry laugh broke from her lips, as she quickly raised her face, still crimsoned with bright blushes. ' Ah, yes, I see it all now,' she said. He really is engaged to Jlliss Martin. But who on earth 'do you take me for ?' For Miss Martin, of course—Miss Juli ette,' was his amazed reply I am .Mrs. Martin, and the mother of this little girl,' she replied ; and she stoop, ed to kiss Annie, for she was sadly afraid the laugh would again break forth, such a bewildered face met her view. It would be impossible to delineate the different emotions that chased one another through Shirley's mind, as he thus sat gazing upon the graceful creature, as she sat in that rich light. Pride, shame, a wee bit anger, at being thus duped by Ellery. But high above all, the strong, the endur ing struggle for mastery. Of course the last conquered : and the little cherub, sit ting on her mother's knee, listened to a declaration as ardent and impassioned as the heart which prompted it. What she replied I leave to the reader's imagination ; but when Jeannie and Ellery entered from their visits, they found them sitting tete-a-tete and smiling. All was explained, Jeannie and her fiance magnani mously taking the blame, while Shirley, in his happiness, readily pardoned the'plot ters who had been the means of giving him such a store of present felicity. The Dying Sailor and the Bible. An affecting story is related of a young sailor who died on hoard a whale ship in the South Atlantic. James Duboice— such was his name—had been carefully reared, but impelled by a strong love of adventure and an ardent desire to see the world, had gone to sea. The ship had made a prosperous voyage, and was on her way home. Of all the men in that ship, none were more elated than James. He had been ashore at the Azores, and got a few curi osities ; he had been ashore at Rio and Cape Verde Islands, and clambered up the rocky sides of one of the Falkland Islands; and he felt already his mother's kiss, and h2ard the cordial welcome of friends at home, and saw their look of wonder, and heard their words of astonishment while he showed his shells, and related his adven tures to them. He spent the whole of his middle watch in painting with enthusiastic words the anticipated meeting, and the scenes which would occur at home. Poor fellow, it was only a waking dream with him ; he never saw his mother again in this world. The neat day he went to work at 4 stow ing down ' the oil. It was a rough sea, and the ship pitched heavily, so as to make it hard and dangerous work to handle the casks of oil. The last cask was stow ed and filled, and in ten minutes more the hatches would be down. Duboice stood on the cask, in the main hatchway, and was passing a few sticks of wood down amongst the water-casks, when the vessl rolled deeply to the leeward, a cask of water broke from the lashings of the weather rail, and rolled into the hatchway where lie stood, and in one instant both his legs above the knees were literally jammed to pieces—the bones were broken into shiv ers. We took him into the steerage, and did the best we could to bind up his broken limbs, and make him comfortable ; but we knew, and he knew, that his days were numbered, he must die. That night, as I sat by his berth and watched with him, he was constantly calling mother ! mother !' 0 ! it was heart-rending to hear him in his piteous ravings calling mother ! moth er !' and then he would weep like a child because she came not. In the morning watch he grew calm, and spoke rationally again. After giving his parents' address and a message for them, he slept a little while. When he awoke he bade me go to the forecastle and open his chest, and un der the till I would find his Bible. I brought it to him, and he opened it at the blank leaf and looked long and eagerly at the name. His mother had given it to him when he left home, and on the fly-leaf was written by her hand 'Presented to James Duboice by his mother, Sarah Duboice.' Now read to me,' said he handing me the book. Where shall 1 read V Where it tells us how to get ready for heaven.' I felt bewildered, and knew not where to read ; but opening the book at random, my eye fell on the fifty-first Psalm, and 1 read to him from the Psalm till I came to the tenth verse, Create in me a clean heart, 0 God, and ranew a tight spirit within me.' Hold there ! That is just what I want,' said he. Now, bow shall I get it.' Pray God to give it to you for Jesus' sake,' I suggested. 60, yes. Jesus is the Saviour. Ship mate, it is an awful hard thing to die'; and I have got to go. 0, if mother was here to tell me how to get ready !' and he trembled with earnestness. After a short pause, during which he spewed to be in deep thought, he said : 6 Do you know of any place where it is said that such sinners as I can be saved !' I quoted 1 Tim. 1 : 15, This is a faith ful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am chief.' 0, shipmate,' said he, that is good.-- Can you think of any more 1' 1 quoted Hebrew 7 : 25, He is able to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ev‘r liveth to make intercession for them.' That's plain. Now, if I only knew how to come to God Come like a child to' its father,' I sug gested.
