Just now, as I lay with half-closed eyes, I heard a sweet song from the sparkling skies. And us I was wondering what it could mean, Mother, Mary and Willie came gliding in ; They hovered around my little bed, And each laid a hand on my aching head ; The tears from my eyelids fell like pearly tears, But they wiped them away with my golden curls, i’ll toll you, father, why 1 cried — ! l'was because with them we had not died ; And 1 thought wheu thuy'd gone how lonely ‘twould be To dwell all alono here —just you and in?.” “ Tis a dream ! a dream ! my prociou- child.

THE WIFE’S EXPERIMENT. ‘Ma,why don’t you ever dress up?’ asked little Nellie Thornton, as her moth er finished brushing the child’s hair, and tying her clean apron. There was a mo mentary surprise on Mrs. Thornton’s face, but she answered carelessly, ‘ Oh, no one cares how I look.’ > Don’t pa love to see you look pretty V persisted the child. The mother did not j reply, but involuntarily she glanced at. her slovenly attire, the faded and worn ' calico dress and dingy apron, both bearing | an intimate acquaintance with the dish- i pan and stove, the slip-shod shoes and j soiled stockings, and she could not help; remembering how she had that morning ; appeared with uncombed hair, and prcpar- ; ed her husband’s breakfast, before he left , home for the neighboring market town. — ; ‘ Sure enough 1’ mused she, ‘how do 1; look!’ And then memory pointed back aj few years to a neatly and tastefully trim med maiden, sometimes busy iu her fath er’s house, again mingling with her young companions, but never untidy in her ap pearance, always fresh and blooming, and this she knew full well, was a picture of , herself when Charles Thornton first won her young heart; such was the bride he had taken to his pleasant home; how had mature life fulfillcdthe prophecy of youth ? She was still comely iu features, grace ful in form, but few would call her a hand some or an accomplished woman ; for alas! all other characteristics were overshadow ed by this repulsive trait. Yet she liked to see others neat, and house and children did not seem to belong to her, so well kept and tidy did they always look. As a housekeeper she excelled, and her hus band was long iu acknowledging to him self the unwelcome fact that he had mar ried an incorrigible sloven. - When, like too many other young wives, she began to grow negligent in regard to her dress, he readily excused her iu his own mind, and ‘ thought -he is not well,’ or ‘ she has so much to doand perceiv- But it is now too late to retract his mg no abatement in his kind attentions, po lite invitation—they are nearing the old she naturally concluded he was perfectly homestead —one field more and his fertile satisfied.

Tea is soon upon removed one dress after another ; some ; the table, and the gentlemen do ample were ragged, others faded, all out of style, justice to the tempting repast set before and some unfit to wear; at leagth she found one which had long ago been laid aside as 1 too light to wear about the house.’ It was a n ee French print, rose-colored and white, and she remembered it had once been a favorite with her husband.— The old adage, ‘ fashions come round in seven years,’ seemed true in this case, for the dress was made in the then prevailing style. ‘ This is just the thing,’ she thought, and she hastened to perform her toilette, saying to herself, 1 L must alter my dark gingham to wear mornings, arid get it ail ready before Hilaries comes horn,-.’ Then she released her long, dark hair Lorn its imprisonment in a most ungraceful twist, ami carefully brushing if.- mill gi-issy waves, she plaited it iu the broad braids which Charles used so much t. > admin- iu the days of her girlhood. The unwouted ta.A: brought back many reminiscences, as she thought of the many changes time had wrought on those she loved, but she murmured,‘What hath sad- . nem like the change that in ourselves we find C Iu that hour she realized how an uppareutly trivial fault had gained the mastery over her, and imperceptibly had placed a barrier between her and the one she best loved on earth. True, he never chided her, never apparently noticed her ult'Ted appearance ; but aho well ku;w he no longer urged her going into >ocioly, nor did lie seem to care about receiving his friends at his own house, although he was a social man, and had once foL proud (o introduce his young wife to hi.s large circle of acquaintances. Now, they seldom weut out together, excepting to church, and even dressing for that was generally too much of au effort for Mrs. Thornton ; she would stay at. home ‘ to keep house and the ue;ghbors soon ceased expecting to meet her at pub lic worship or iu their social gatherings , and so, one by one, they neglected to call on her, until very few of the number con tinued to exehauge friendly civilities with her. She had wondered at this, had felt mortified and patuod heretofore ; now she clearly saw it was her own fault; the veil was removed from her eyes, and the mis take of her life was revealed in its true enormity Sincerely did she repent of her past error, calmiy uud seriously resolved on future and immediate amendment. Meanwhile, her hands were not. idle, and at length the metamorphosis was complete. The bright pink drapery huug gracefully about her form, imparting an uousual brilliancy to her complexion ; her best j. worked collar was fastened with a costly ! brooch, her husband’s wedding gift, which I hud not seen the light for many a day.

As Mrs. Tkumtuu entered she | clapped her hands in childish delight, 1 aud running to her kissed her over and over again, thou drew her little ohair close to her side, ami eagerly watched her as she plied her needle, repairing her ging ham dress. Just as it was cumploied, the clock struck the hour wheu Mr. Thornton was expected, and his wife proceeded to lay the table with unusual care, and to place thereon several’ choice viands, of which she knew he was particularly fond. Meanwhile let us form the acquaintance of the absent husbaud and father, whom we find in the neighboring town, just com pleting his day’s traffic. He is a line looking, middle aged man, with an tinmis takeable twinkle of kindly feeling in his eye, and the lines of good humor plainly traced about his mouth—we know at a glance that he is cheerful and indulgent in his family, and are at once prepossessed in his favor. As he is leaving the store, where be has made his last purchase for the day, he is familiarly accosted by a tall gentleman just entering the door. He recognizes an old friend, and exclaims, ‘ George Morton, is it you V The greetiug is mutually cordial; they were friends in boyhood and early youth, but since Mr. Morton has been practicing law in a distant city, they have seldom met, and this is no place to exchange their many questions and answers. Mr. Thornton’s fine span of horses aud light vehicle arc standing near by, and it. needs but little persuasion to induce Mr. Morton to accompany his friend to his home, which he has never yet visited. The conversation is lively and spirited; they recall the feats of their school days, and the experiences of after life, compare their present position in the world with the golden future of which they used to dream. Mr, Morton is a bachelor and very fastidious in his -tastes —as that class of individuals are prone to be. The reoollection of this flashes on Mr. Thornton’s mind as they drive along towards their destination. At once his zeal in the dialogue abates, ho becomes thoughtful and silent, and does not urge his team onward, but seems willing to afford Mr. Morton an opportunity to admire the beautiful soenery on either | hand—the hills and valleys clad in the fresh verdure of June, while the lofty mountain ranges look blue and dim in the distance. He cannot help wondering if they will find his wife in the same sorry predicament in which he left her that morning, and involuntarily shrinks from introducing so slatternly a personage 10 his refined and cultivated friend. “ THAT 00UNTB7 IS THE HOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR 00HHAND8 THE GREATEST REWARD.”—BUCHANAN.

A day or two after wards Mr. Thornton invited his wife to aecompauy him to towu, saying he thought she might, like to do some shopping, aud she, with no appal out surprise, but with heartfelt, pleasure, acceded to the proposal. The following Sabbath the village gossips had ample food for their hungry eyes (to be digested at the next sewiug society) in the appearance of Mrs. Thorntou at church clad in plain, but rioh costume, au entire new outfit, which they oould not deny ‘ made her look ten years younger.’ This was the beginning of the reform aud it was the dawuiug of a brighter day for the husbaud and wife of our story. — True, habits oi such long standing are not conquered in a week or a mouth ; and very often Mrs. Thornton was tempted to yield to their long tolerated sway, but fought valiantly against their influence and in time she vanquished them. An air of taste and elegauce, before unknown, now pervaded their dwelling, and year after year the links of affection which united them as a family, grew brighter and purer, even radiating the light of a Christian home But it was not until many years had passed away and our little Nellie, now a lovely maiden, was about to resign her place as pet iu her father’s household and assume a new dignity iu another’s home, that her mother imparted to her the story of her own errors, and earnestly warned her to beware of that insidious foe to domestic happiness—disregard of little things—and kissing her with maternal pride and fondness, thanked her for those simple, ohildlike words, which changed the whole current of her destiny : — ‘■Don’t pa like to see you look pretty V The Deacon and the Irishman. The following amusing story is going the rounds A few months ago, as Mr. Ingalls, of Swampseoot, K. 1., was traveling the western part of the State of New York, he fell in with an Irishman who had lately arrived in this country, and was iu quest of a brother who came before him and settled in some of the diggings in that, vicinity. Pat was a strong athletic man, a strong Catholic, and had never seen the interior of a Protestant church. It. was a pleasant Sunday morning that brother Ingalls met Pat, who inquired the way to the church. Ingalls was a good and pious man. He told Pat. he was going to church himself, and invited his new acquaintance to keep him company thither—his plaoe of desti nation being a small Methodist house near by. There was-a great revival there at the time, and one of the deaoons—who, by the way, is very small in stature—in vited Brother Ingalls to take a seat in his pew. He accepted the invitation, and walked in, followed .by Pat, who looked in vain to find the altar, &c. After he was seated, he turned to Brother Ingalls, and in a whisper, which could be heard all around, inquired— -1 Sure, aud isu’t this a hiritiek church ?’ ‘ Hush,’ said Ingalls. ‘lf you speak a loud word they will put you out.’ 1 And faith, not a word will I spake at all,’ replied Pat. The meeting was opened with prayer by the pastor. Pat was eyeing him very closely, when an old gentleman, who was standing in the pew, directly in front of Pat shouted ‘ Glory.’ ‘ Hist, ye clear demon,’ rejoined Pat, with a loud whisper, which was plainly heard by the minister, ‘ he dacent, and don’t make a_ blackguard of yourself.’ The parson grew more and more fervent in his devotions. Presently the deacon uttered an audible groan. ‘ Hist-t-t, ye blackguard, have you no dacenoy at all ?’ said Pat, at the same moment giving the deacon a punch in the ribs, which caused him nearly to lose his equilibrium. The minister stopped, and extending his hand in a supplicating manner, said : ‘ Brethren, we cannot be disturbed in this way. Will some one put that man out V ‘ Yis, your rivireuce,’ shouted Pat, ‘ I will;’ and suiting the action to the word he collared the deacon, and to the laughter and utter astonishment of all present, including the pastor and Brother Ingalls, he dragged him through the aisle, and with a tremendous kiok he landed him in the vestibule of the church. ;I Yo monsters of the bubbling deep. Your Maker’s praises spout; Up from the same ye codlings peep, And wag your tails about.” The quotations made above are very well known and have been chanted, scores of times, by many of our readers—un doubtedly, in good old times. The poetry and sentiment of these couplets are equalled only by two gems in the way of epitaphs , which may now be seen upon the gravestones of two rivals, in a churchyard near London. The first reads : ‘•Here I lie, Snug as a bug, In a rug.” The man who died afterwards deter mined not to be outdone by his competi tor, aud oaused the following to be cut upon his tablet, which stands close by that of his former rival : i ;i Hero I lies, A little snugger, Than that other bugger!” The above may be set down a-< old-time specimens of ‘‘grave and sentimental poetry.” A Touch of Satire. —The Homan Sentinel relates that a three-year-old girl aooompauied her father upon a visit to her grand-parent in the country, where a blessing is invoked by the white-haired patriarch before each meal. The custom was one which our little friend had not been made familiar with at home, and of course on the first occasion she was silent with interest and curious watchfulness. But when the family gathered around the board the second time after the commence ment of her visit, she was prepared for the preliminary religious ceremony, and observing that her father did not seem duly conscious of the approaohing solem nity, she oalled him to order by saying with stern gravity, •Be still, papa— grandpapa’s going to talk to his plate pretty soon !’— Boston Courier. ■IF- The Rev. Mr. A. was more emi nent in his day for the brilliancy of his imagination than the force of his logic. At one time he was preaching-on ‘the Ministry of Angels,’ and in the perora tion he suddenly observed, ‘ I hear a whisper!’ The ohange of tone startled the deacon, who sat below, from a drowsy mood, and springing to his feet, he spoke : ‘ I guess it is the boys in the gallery ! ’ CARDS.

EXPLANATION The term AMBROTYPE, by which these Pictures are designated: is derived from the Greek word Ambrofas, sig nifying indestructibility, pcruianeiiry. Ac. The Picture is taken upon plate glass, to which another plate ot' corres ponding size is secured with an indestructible cement, by which the picture will retain its original briliauc* for ages: it will uot corrode by acids, nor be injured by water or climate. It is bold in its effect, beautiful iu loue, surpasses any thing iu the gradations ot light ami shade, and may be seen in any light. The public are cautioned against imitations mad* on single plaits nj glass, with the black varnish in immediate contact with the Picture.— Such are not permanent, as the varuish must crack aud destroy the Picture.
