Cr and down the village streets
Strange are the forms my fancy meets,
For the thoughts and things of today are hid,
And through the coil of it closed lid
The ancient *willies"! ete.Osain t '
I hear the tsp of the elder's cane,
And his awful-periwig! see,
And the silvecr buckles of shoe and knee.
Stately. and slow with solemn air,-
His black cap hiding his whitened hair,
Walls the ,edge of the Great Aitskte,
&Mimi smniii, the kdod and *he t
His flee With lines of firmness iitdB 'f;
He wears the look of a man unboug ht,
Who swears to his hurt and changes not ;
Yet, touched amrsoftened nevertheless
With the grate of Christian gentleness—
The face that,a child would clip)b to kiss!
True and tender and brain and
That man might honor and kir:110
Touching and sad, a tale is told,'
Like a penitent hymn of the Psalmist 'old,
Of the fist which the good man life-long kept _
With a haunting MIRO** that never slept,
A; the circling year brought round the time
Olen error that left the sting of crime,
When he sat on the benehof the Witchcraft courts,
With the laws qf /We* and lisle's keparts,
And spate, In the name of boih o the Word
That gave the witch!s ilea to the Card,
And piled the oikeniplanks that pressed
The feeble life fMni - the warlock's breast !
All the day long. from dawn to dawn,
fits door was bolted, his curtain drawn,
No foot on his silent threshold trod,
No eve looked on him sere that of God,
As he baffled the !hoists of the'dead with charms
Of penitent tears abd prayers and psalms,
And, with precious pmofs from the ssercd Word
Of the boundless pitrand lore of the Lord,
Hie faith confirmed and his trust renewed
Thtit the sin of his igUerance, softie rued(
Might be washed away In the mingled flood
Of his human sorrow and Christ's dear blood.
•
Green forever the memory be
Of the Judge of the old Theocracy; -
Whom even his errors glorified,
Liked far-seen sunlit mountain side
By the clofidy shadows which o'er it glide!
Honor and praise to the Puritan,
Who the halting step of hie age out-ran,
And, seeing the infinite worth• of man s .
In the 'priceless gift the Father gave,
fri the infinite love that stooped to save,
Dared not brand his brother A alavel
" Who doth such wrong.' he was wont to say,
in his own quaint picture-loving way,
"Flings up to heaven a hand grenade
Which God shall cast down upon his heart!"
Wide as Heaven and hell, contrast
-That brave old jurist of the past
And the cunning trickster and knave of courts
•Who the holy feature. of 'Troth dbtorts, -
Ruling as right the will of the strong, - •
Poverty crime, and weakness wrong
Wide-eared to power, to the wronged and weak
•
Deaf as F.4.7pt's Gods of leek;
Scoffing. aside, at party's nod, .
Order of nature•and law of God ;
For whose dabbled ermine respect were waste,
Reverence folly, and awe misplaced;
Jasviee of whom Num vain to.seek
As from Soordish robber or Spirit Sheik !
Oh! leave the wretch to his bribes and sins,
Let him to is the web of yes be spina !
To the saintly soul of the early day, -
To the Christian Judge, let na turn and say :

Who onceon yon misty hillside stood, '
(a. poet who never measured rhyme,
A seer unknown to his dull-eared time)
And,;propped on his staff of age, looked down,
With his boyhood's laic, on his native town

rItIBO/IHRI CHILD.
or 11103. MARY A:DENISON
h was early*moming.
"Ts .this the way to Sing,Sing 'I" .
"Yea," roughly replied a .brotin.faced
countryman, and passed on.
It was afternoon. The child was soninwhat
fragile in her appearance. Her bonnet was.
of broken straw; her shoes were very much
tail, the sun played hotly on her tender fore
head. She walked cm and on an hour longer.
1 . "Is this the way to Sing Sing 'l' ;
I "Yes, little girl, but what are you. going
there for 'I"
The child trudged on, her lip quivering,
• not deigning - to answer the pleasant-faced
old man who had stopped the Jogging of his
horse to note her hurried manner, and who
I liked that little face, anxious and sad as its
expression was. '
e The dew was falling . Katy had fallen too,
almost. A rougt stone by tltp way imbed
ded in moss received her tired little frame.
She looked sowcaried and aged, sitting there,
her tangled hair falling on the hands that
were clasped over her face! By the shaking
of her frame, the tears werecomin g too, and
she was bravely trying to hold them back.
" W hy, what is this dear little girl doing
here I"
The exclamation came from a pair of ea
ger young lips.
" A curiosity !A I declare !" exclaimed a
harsher voice, and Katy looked up suddenly,
cowered aWay from the sight of the pretty
young girl and her agreeable looking com
panion.
" What are you doing here, little girl 1"
aced Nell Maywood, moving a little nearer
to the frightened child. .
" Going to Sing Sing," said Katy, in a
scared way.
"Did you ever, George! this,child is go
ing to Sing Sing ; why, it's ten miles off.—
Child, did you know it was so far off."
Katy shook her bead, and wiped away the
hot and heavy. tears one by one.
" Why, yes, you poor little goose. What
aro you going to Sing Sing for? .Have you
had your supper ?" •
Katy shook her head.
Have Jim had any dinner ?" •
Again the sad child shook her head.
"Nor breakfast? -Why, George, the poor
little thing - must be almost starved !"
"I should think so,"
_Mechanically replied
her brother, just recovering from a yawn sad
showing signs of sympathy.
"Look here; 'what's .your name ?"
" Katy."
" Well Katy, you must come up to the
house, and get something to eat. Going to
Sing Sing on foot ; dear me, how ridiculous!
Follow me. Kati, and we'll take care of you
to-night., somehow, and see about your going
to Singing to-morrow."
Katy followed. What ,a glorious vision
burst upon her view ! The palace house ;
the rocks reddening in a low western sun ;
the Shining river; the signs of luxury on ev.
ery, hand.
They walked up a wide avenue. Elms and
oaks threw their pleasant
.branches on each
side; here and there a flower bush might be
seen ; vines grew around the noble -pillars;
twisting up to the eliuering windows.
"Susan, give this poor child a food sup
per ; she is hungryi and tired too, J imagine.
After that, I will see what can be dour for
her." ,•
Sum Wore imild face. . She looked pleas
'antly down at - the poor tired little one and
taking her hand, which trembled now, led her
into the kitchen..
Meanwhile, her story, or that brief part of
it which we know, was- being told in the
drawing-roam: The sylph figure in white,
lounging gracefully in the midst of delicate
cushione, accompanied her narration with ex.
pre_saive gestures, and now and then a little
laugh.
" I should like to know:what she, is going
to Sing Sing tor. !" she said, leaning languid
ly back. " V,Ve.tnust get her something to
wear ; a bonnet . ; a pair .of shoes; and
_then,
may-be, we can manage„to have her carried
some way, if her mission is,of any import
ance. Oh ! such an odd-looking little thing." b
"Who is that, my daughter?" • )
"Oh, Papa you are come , home • why, I
abs talking about the mite of a child ; she
can't Ise more thin ten, if that. I saw her
octrhere sitting on a moss-rock, the most for
lorn object. She sayi she is gOing to sine
Sing." -
"1-
met. her on my way,'? said the pleasant
faced old man ; "she asked me about it, and
I would have stopped her, but, she trudged
on. Where is_ she ? It was noon -when. I
saw her. - "
-"In the kitchen, Papa. Susan is taking
good care of her,-1 expect, and when she has
had a hearty supper we will - talk with her."
A gay trio of young girls tame. The--net
tiegs were put up ;- the gas burned brightly;
and music and mirth banished all thought of
care. Suddenly, Nell Maywood remember.
ed the-little odd figure, and clapping •he'r
hands, cried, • "Oh, I've something to show
you, girls," arid disappearSd. •
Sumo was -picking gooseberries near the
pantry in the kitchen. •
• - " *here is the child, Susy ?" asked Nell
Maywood.
"On the door-step; Mies," Susan replied,
picking away.
" Why, no, Susan, there's nobody, here ;
nohOdy to be Seen.", _
'"'Yee, lifies:” Susan placed her pantloWn,
held her apron up to earth . the stems of the,
and . walked deliberately to the door:
" Why, she sat. here some time after supper.
I turned and came in ; she was sitting there,
looking'at the stars, l'expect. I thought she
was a mighty quiet child ; but she's deep` , deep, Miss Nelly ! she's gone. Let me see
=there ain't, any silver_ round-4 should be

"no you menn to say that you have come
to Sing Sing, from flew Yorjc, on font ?"
"'Yes, sir," crud the child, frightemtd at his
manner,. which had in it something of severi
ty.
"And what have you come for?"
"To see my rattler." the child burst forth
with one great sob, and for a moment , her
little frame was shaken with 'a tempest of
feeli. •
"Andwho is your fathers?" asked the
Warden, kindly.
" Ile - is Mr. Loyd," said the child, as soon
as.she could-speak forsher rushing sobs.
The Warden looked at the jailor.
"Loyd •, there are three Loyds here, Jim;
Bondy, and Dick," said the jailor.,
"They may not be their proper names,"
responded the Warden. •
"'That's so," said the jailer,"hut I can try
'em all. Little one, was your father's name
Jim?"
The child _nodded her bead, or they Oought
she did; she 'was all convulsed with the re
action brought on by the tetmihation -of her
journey.
"If its Jim, he's a bad one;' said the jailor
in a low voice ; he's in irons this morning for
'tempting to break jail; he don' deserve a
little gal as looks like that one, the villain.
Come child I'll go and find your father."
He took Katy's sbaklng hand, with the
other she dashed the tears away as fast as
they tell. It frightened her almost into calm
ness to see the ponderous door at which the
jailor applied the great key; and the still
ness of the long stone passages; the dimness
thiown over all; the constant succession of
base and bleak-walls was terrible to a setish
tine mind like hers, How the heavy tread
of the jailor; and the tread of the Warden be.
hind him, echoed through the gloom and
spate. ' It was in truth a great tomb through
which they moved ; a tomb in which were
confined living hearts; whose throb could al.•
most be heard in the awful stillness. On, on
they went, now 'through this massive door,
now through that passage way. Eveiything
spoke of crime, , of fierce passiOns subdued
and held in stern+ control ; everything, from
the grim face of the ferocious watch:dog, to
the sentinels armed. .
Then they turned, and went up the stairs,
the jailor holding the scared bird close to his
side with a tender clasp, the Warden follow
ing. Another tramp, and at last they came
to a-stand still. The jailor•rapped at a cell
door. Slowly a man with a harsh, hair-cov
ered face appeared.
" " fiere's your little girl come to see you,"
said the jailor.
- -
"Little girl hem! your'e green," said
the man, in grum accents; "I've got no lit
tle girl, or you wouldn't catch me here." •
" Father, 'said the childish voice. It sound
ed so sweet, so childish, in that terrible pris
on. But as the scowling face came closer to
the bars, the child hid .her head quickly in the
jailor's arni, half sobbing; it wasn't him.
"We'll try the next one." lie walked
further on, and spoke more pleasantly this
time. " Well, Bondy, here is lit le Katy ;
don't you want to see her 7" •
" Little Katy—" there was.a lon, use.—
"I had a Katy 'once—not a little Katy—l
broke her heart—,God pity me. •Go on, it
can't be for me."
' Again the 'sweet voice ran& out," rather."
The prisoner cam e up to the barsa youth
&Haw framed with light wavy b , air; a face
in which the blue eyes looked innocent; a
face that it seemed a sin to couple with a foul
deed, gazed out. It saw the child's earnest,
'.leading. 'tearful eyes; a dark expression
rolled like a wave across his brow; a groan
carne up from his bosom, and with a low
moan he staggered against his bed, crying,
"Take her away ; I cati t ,t stand the sight - of
anything_pure like that." -
Katy had hidden her Lice a second time,
as she feebly cried, " him ;" so they
kept on to the third cell.
"Jim, here's a little girl, little Katy, your
daughter, Wants to - see you."
A stupid "what!" "DO from the bed;—
the man had probably just awakened.
"Your little daughter!" - ,
Theriias a sold of rattling irons that
made the Child shiver. Dimly appeared the
fitee and outliries of a well made min—the
countenance handsome, but evil. Ile seem
ed not to comprehend. But as fast as his
chains Would permit him, he came forward
and looked . out st_the ar-xious face below. It
was graced' too much for the'ehild. With a

"Bring her over here."vtid the Warden,
" my wife is wanting a little' girl for help ;
mas , lle she's just the one." So Katy stood
trembling more than ever,_in a few moments;
in the presence of the Warden and jailor.--
Katy was a pretty child. Her large., blue
eves wore an expression of intense melan
choly ; her hair had been combed and curled
and some otx had put a good pair of shoes
on her feet.
" Well, my little girl," said the Warden,
kindly, for he Was prepossessed in her favor.
"where have you come from?"
" New York," said the child faintly.
The men looked at each other incredulous•
then there was a quiet crying. 'By ' and by ,

" Katy, what made you came r • *

"I Walked here." " -
"From New York, child?" '
." Yes, Father !" • - • -
There was no sound save that of the chains
as he Strained her to his bosom.
"And how did you leave—hei—Katy
—your mother?"
The question was fearfully asked but not
reiponded tn. He
_gazed eagerly in the
child's Ace ; her little lip was quivering.
"Krity, tell me:'qtticks!" • '
"She died, Father !"
A groan,* a terrible groan followed; the
env/ices heqd fell in the lap of bistehild, and
he wept with strong cries. The jailor and
the Warden said that they never saw-a sight
sn wail. And the child tried to' comfort
him, till his strength seemed to be gone, and_
his sobs were like gasps.
"Oh. Katy, when - did she die? my
poor May ! my poor girl !"
"Ever po long ago. I guess, ever so many

" In Heaven ! I in 'Heaven !" groaned the
man, giving way again to his agony. The
child wis angel-guided. Iler soft touch was
better for his soul's good, thart the stripes
and-the drains. He had - been hardened; her

"Father, when you come out, 111 take

Re lifted his head; his eyes, red with
weeping, were fastened on her face. •
"Mother said I might."
"God's blessing ott you, my angel child ;
you may save your miserable Father !"
" I wit/ save you, Father."
The Warden cleared his throat; the jailor
spoke roughly to one of the prisoners; it was
to hide-his emotion. " You, had,better conie
now," he added, piing to the cell. •
"Rate. you must go; will you come again
my child ?"
"Can't I stay?"
"No, dear; but ,you shall come and see
.
meagain."
They took her gently from the dark cell;
she sobbed very quietly. In the Warden's
room stood a pleasant-fa Ced *old man.
"I have come after thatfittle girl," he said.
"She must go hothe with me. I'll take
good care of het"; I've heard her story; and
when her father comes-out, if he's a mind to

Besides that. I'll bring her up once a week to

labors
-of the lattiWilliam H.. Prescott is Of
general interest. We have, therefore, ; pre
pared it: aciinewhat minute 'sketch: of the
method of ,preparation and composition ad
opted by the deceased, by , which he was en
abled to'overcome his impaired vlsinn,• and
'to place his, nettle 'among historians of the
very first rank. - Mr.; Prescott, it is well
known, though not blind, was *Meted with. a
disorder of the nerve of -the'eye; so that -he
was Wholly incapacitated for reading and-
Writing in the Ordinary : ways. He was ex
ceedingly systematic in his mode of life, sad
devoted five hours out of the twenty-four' to
his liistoripliebors. After breakfast he list
ened'for an hour to some light reading, a
novel, poem, or other entertaining" book,—
.He thenlWalked for an hour. At half past
ten o'clock his secretary came to his study
and remained till twelve o'clock. Another
walk of an hoe; was then taken, after which
he went-to his study and remained. another
hour and a half with is , secretary. After
dinner,light reading was- again resorted to,
and at six o'clock' the-seeretary 'returned and
remained until eight.- Thisiontini3 of work
and leisure was very - rigidly observed"thro'.
out the season, during the years devoted to
the preparation of his elaborate volumes.
Mr. Prescott's mode of, writing history
was this : we will take, fur example, his last,
work, " Philip the Second." He arranged
in his study all the books and. manuscripts re
lating to that. monarch, which_ he had been
years in collecting, at an expense of many
thousand dollars. They numbered three or
four hundred printed volumes of all sizes.--
There were also some twenty thick folios of
manuscripts, richly bound, which probably
cost more than all therest of the collection,
though some' of the printed works are ex
ceedingly 'rare and valuable--the . libraries .
and bookstores of all Western Europe, from
Cudiz to Arristerdam, having been ransacked
by agents initearch bf everything that could
throw light on the history of Philip the Se
cond. Except dictionaries and other works
of reference, books not specially relating to
the subject in hand were excluded, from the
study. • . .
With his materials thus gathered abOuti
him, the Ilietorian commenced his work:—
The secretary first read the only English his
tory of the King and his Reign. Notes and
observations,were dictated as they were Emir
gested by the book. Having freshened his
recollections tiy hearing this volume read,
Mr. Prescott proceeded to examine the -ilea,
sum he-had collected. Each book was tak- I
en from the shelf in turns by the secretary, I
who, read aloud its title, its table of contents,
and a few pages by way of specimen of its
style and character. Notes were taken while
' this examination was going on, which were
preserved fin future reference. ,Of thethree
or four hundred volumes, a great majority
of course proved worthless, being either
merely repetitions, or compilations or trans
lation lation of preceding authors, or else, if 'orig
inal, thou authority. The numb,er of books
of rea value would, be thus reduced down
perhaps to a hundred. - . -
' The huge folios of MSS. , were next at-'
tacked. - These had been examined by .a com
petent person, who prepared a careful 'digest
.and table of' contents.. The
_secretary •read
this, and notes were dictated as he , proceed !
'ed. Having theses it were taken turaccount
of stock, tuid,ascertained the general charac
ter of his materials, they were next - inspect
ed din detail in, the following manner : The
first chapter of Philip ' the Second' contains
an account of the abdication and last days of
his father' and predecessor, Charles the - Fifth.
The secretary gathered round him every vol-'
ume, printed- or MSS., which contained--any.
thing aboerthe last named monarch, The
books are in the . . - English, French, Spanish,'
Italian, and -Latin languages. One, by . one
they were read aloud, and Copiotie notes
were dictate When everything that relat.'
ed to Cherie* the Fifth- bad thus. been pc.
rused and noted, the historian began to com
pose his work, or, more properly speaking,
to write it—fur the, process of composition
had of course been going on in his.minedu
ring these preparatory labors. -'' :
The:apparatus Used by Mr, Prescott 'con
sisted bf a frame the size of a common 'sheet
of.Jetter paper; with brass wires inserted to
correspond wi t h the number of lines marked.
Thin carbon atedpaper was used ; and instead
of a pen the writer' empldyed.a stylus' With
an
,agate point. - The great , di ffi culty in the
way of a person% writing' in • the ordinary ,
manner, whose vision is impaired, arises from
not knowing When-the ink is exhausted, and
moreover the lines will - be'run intoone another.
The pages the e written by Mr. Prescott were
copied bY . thci Secretary, and read, Abet 'such
"interlineal ions, alterations And - amendments
might be mine, as wereweeded. Themateri:
als.forAhe seOnd; chapter, on the early :life
of Philip, were next. taken p, and the., same'
process repeated, until the 'volume is ready
for the printe,r. About six years were devot:
