Nothing but a spok we scent In the wait. of .watera round; Floating, fl oating, like a dream, Outward bound. Yet within that tiny speck Two brave tisa‘la, with ona accord, Past all tumult, grief, and wreck, Look up calm and pralss the Lord— Outward bound. "You're so stupid! itta.lt terrible thing to me that you are not bright; like other children " It was a terrible thing to Janie too. She stood looking from the window into the wet garden, and wt,hing lhat she could die. Meanwhile her aunt vigorously ripped t. picccs tho she had worked on fur half an hour, and sewed all wrong. "Heaven knows I've taken pains enough with you, Janie," said Miss Pales. "If your mother had been alive, she couldn't have taken more; hut yoe're one of the kind that won't learn. You're not a Pairs, Janie Graham; you're no blood in you but that of your unthrifty, crotch ety father. I wish sometimes that I'd never set eyets you_" She was not looking at the child,' and did not see how the veins swelled suddenly,in her small forehead, while the muacles quivered painfully about the pale month. Perhaps Janie, small and helpless as she looked, echoed the wish of her good aunt. "Though the Lord only knowk," want on Miss Fates, jerking the unfortunate waist into shape, " arliat-you would have done if I hadn't taken you. That father you're so fond of never left you a cut to keep you out of the poor house. When you came into my hands, I ac knowledge I did have some hopes of yon, in spite of your mother's wretched marriage; but I own now that I'm sick of my bargain. You never were good for anything, Janie Graham; and you never will be. Take this work pow, and see if you can sew a straight seam that's basted." Perhaps there wax some reason for Miss Pales' s exasperation. The work was a simple cotton waist, with four principal seams, and nothing but the most flagrant inattention could here misplaced them. Janie was twelve tears old, and fur the last tour years had been thoroughly drilled in needle work. In one sense the mis take was almost inexcusable; but, in another, it was not strange that it happened. The child uated her tasks, sewing particular ly; and never from their commencement at her eighth year, had she taken any interest in them. Miss Fates declared that she didn't like any thing hut to be idle. Perhaps it was true. Ste certainly slipped away from the needle and ihe book, often, to wander leisurely up and down the old garden. To be sure, she found there themes for thought of which Miss Vales never dreamed. She would sit briars watching he four-o'clocks shut up, break opeu the little „ i c e d ve asela of the lilies to examine their small compartments, dig up the shining black beetles to aee them stir and triirrow into the earth again, and fall into absorbing meditation of what the sunflowers, standing stately and tall, were diiaking about. In her own way she learned; out in Miss Pales's site did not. So that good lady was incensed, and the child very wretched hue would have dreams of running away; but. hough imaginative, she was not courageous, and oer plans never came to any more than ex quisite concepti o ns of ease and freedom. bits. Falea declared that she was not practical, and oad no ability for use; but it is to be considered but the child had as yet no motive sufficient to call out her capabilities. There were people, who, understanding the La:inflection between aunt and-niece, made it a business to remark to the child, "Never mind, Janie; don't cry. Keep on the right side of the old lady; there will be some property for you by and by. Then you'll be y6ur awn mistress, and can do as yon like." So Janie, with this idea dimly in her head, lived long in utter mitt. conception of her p *shine • for, atter the day of the ill-made waist, Miss Fades had no thought of ttequesthing a cent to the: girl. She altered her plans and cm her off with a shilling. If poor Janie had known this, I think she would have humbly demanded- her shilling, and gone out upon the highway seeking her for tune; for life became intolerable to her at Oak ley. Miss Fides no longer molested or made her afraid, but she seemed to cast her airift from all claim upon her. She no longer set her at tasks, no longer scolded her, no longer noticed her idle ways Her mind seemed absorbed by some secret subject; and Janie, feeling vaguely some portentous change, felt her heart weighed down by a secret dread. She did not doubt but what she was a very bad girl; hut she wondered what Mias Fates finally anticipated doing with tier.. She fancied that the trees breathed in slow tones of danger, and that the four-o'clocks and daises looked at her pitifully. These things were her only friends. • At last Miss Ftiles broke silence. She called Janie from the hollyhock walk. "Get your bonnet and sack," said she, "and come into the city with me." • Janie grew pale. liras she going to be sent In the Reform School? But she obeyed in si- V:iv..drove into the city. The buttercups nodded 'gaily to Janie, but she looked at them th Seol ha f eo ayes Suddenly Miss Fales ob served " Hon'ti be a little 1.4: 0 said she.

DORM GUARDIAN: " Freedom and Right against Slavery and Wrong." Scarcely relieved, Janie saw the city appear in silence. They drove through the clattering streets to the orphan asylum. What was going to be done there? Was she going to be realgned to the ePtAbliadment 7" Miss Fslea descended, but told her to sit in the carriage. This was a relief. She leaned back In her seat, and soon the door closed upon her aunt. ' Ffteen minutes passed ; twenty, thirty. Janie never forgot the place, she regarded it with such anxiety. It was a large, square, handsome btick building, with green grounds around it, and no signs of a child In sight. At the end of nearly an hour, Miss Pales ap peared, leading a little boy. She brought the Child down the walk, and put him into the car riage_ She followed, gathered up the reins, and turn ed the horses' heads to the country. The little boy gazed about him almost wildly. As for Miss Fates, she never opened her lips until they were In sight of home. Then she suddenly spoke: "Janie, Tye adopted this child. I am to bring him up; and he is to be my heir. As for you, there Is no use of saying that I am dissatisfied with you—have been for at long time—end, whatever folks have told you about inheriting my property. believe no more of it. I shall keep you to take care of him. Do this well, and we shall get along. If you refuse, don't look to me for your bread " Janie did not realize that this was a severe if not a cruel thing to say. The child had taken one of her hands, and, looking at her wistfully, smiled. He was a frank little fellow, with a bold forehead, and silky black curls hanging over his little plaid sack. A mere baby too— not three years old. "You're moat thirteen, and able to take care of him," said Miss Pales. The little fellow hsd mounted upry the scat, and stood with his arm about Jatti“'fil neck. "I would like to take care of him," answered " Very well," answered Miss Pales, grimly. The gond lady made no more pretensions to loving this child than she had done the other; but she was proud of him. He was a very hand some little fellow. When they asked his 111111 W, he said "Dore;" so they called him so. But from the record book of the asylum Miss Fates had taken the name— 'Theodore Varrence"--and it was written in her will, a month later, "Theo dore Varmint: Fah s." It became noised about that this was the heir; and then there .was great indignation am..ng the country folks, among whom Janie was a fa vorite. But Janie had never twine.e in her life been no contented. The child loved her. He would follow her about the house all day, and search the rooms in dismay when she dleop peered. His Wile crib was beside her bed; and, like her, he delighted in the rank old garden. He would roll on the grass while she made him daisy chains, or chase the bees down the walk 'with such merriment that she benched, too, un til her cheeks were as red as the roosea. So three years passed, and Janie was sixteen. She had overcome one of the bugbears of childhood, and loved to read. Out of books D and little ore's love Mite mad° life. She did not realize that she was near wo man hood. And it was not strange; for her life had not altered in any way for the last three years. She read in the house, or played in the garden with the child, day after day, and was quite content to go on so forever. But then there Came a change. otiri4lea with tha palsy, appa rently not fatally; but she was confined to her bed for life. The radvillage practitioner was just deceased; and by signs, for her organs of articulation were useless, she signified her pre judice against ilk successor. lie called once, in the first alarm; but she strenuously refused to be attended by him. "Go to 1./..0131.X for a physician," she signified by pointing to the west. Janie developing ' a sudden responsibility which surprised them all, ordered the carriace, and placing Dore in the seat beside her, for she never went anywere without him, drove to the next town. it seemed to her that her aunt would die belie e she got back ; but she dr,ve rapidly down the green roads w hose brighten ss and singing suddenly seemed very strange to her, tied entered the town, vonfia.d and per plexed enough, but intent upon her errand. All the way she had not heard the boy's prat• tllng ime•lions. blay ing merely "Sit still un• til I come back, Don-," she sprang nut of the carriage before the door of the town's pracd• tinner, and entered the ottic, There was a confu..ion there. A lady who had swooned lay upon a lounge, with several persons bending over her, arming them Dr. Stone. Janie teadtsted; for the homes appeared restive, and shedid nut like to leave their lung. But suddenly the doctor turned, asking— " Did you wish to see tee, young lady? " " Yes. My aunt is very ill at Oakley.'' "1 wid be there 500 n..." "Cannot pu come directly 1' I bare a car riage at the d.so." "Not immediately; but my chaise is ready to go out, and I will follow yun iu fifteen min utes." Ile was a tall, pale man, with such a red mustache, and such a waxen skin. that he lia.k• ed !hough has beard had drawn all the odor out of his body. Ile turned away as he uttered lasi p-reMptory words; and Janie was nlsk fug her war back to the door, when there arose a shout and a crash outside. Chiding with a sudden fear, she sprang out upon the piazza just in time to see tie, carriage, nicking fearful y. disappear around the corner, at the heels of the affrighted horses. Sharon and cries is.ued from every part of the Wreet, and a crowd tu..tied in pursuit; but in oantly the word spread that the Mures were stopped. Janie pushed her wav frantically through the crowd, as the carrtage appeared, wane one leading the horses, her dilating e), searching f , r that little form which should lie upon the velvet seat. She turned Mut and sick as she snw it was n• 4. there, but still pushed her way to the Carriage tis it FtAlpfted helore tin door. No one noticed her till she took from tht hand of a man the bit of her favorite horse, an stroked the trembling animal, while she said calmly, though bar heart was dying within her— `. WM re k the child?" " Here," repdeil the Pileery , voice of a by stander; and I) ,, re, crying with f. ar, and laugh ing with Joy, was put into her arms by a gen tleman. 11,-'s not hart at all," observed the latter. with kind assurance. " I caught him when he was thrown out, as the carriage tripped in pas stag the corn , r." "Oh, I thank you f" cried .lanie ',Not at all. My dear your lady, you are faint with the fright. The Oakley uirrriage; al• low me to drive you home." Janie np, very pale but not faint ; though she yielded to the ready hand which put her and the child hack into the carriage, and turned the quivering hor.es out of the crowd. As they cantered out of the town, she heard the doctor's chaise behind them, and composed herself to realize her p. tail it /IL "Oh, no r she said, "I must not trouble yot to go trick with me There is trouble and con fusion vn .ugh at Oakley now, without my adds• to it. I'm is little weak from the fright, but can drive very well. Indeed I bad rather no trouble you." If Janie realized that her companion was young and handsome, it was very dimly. To make the best of the accident was the idea up permost in her thoughts; and she knee how startling the account would be if made. She wished to say nothing about it, so desired to go home as if nothing had happened. "As you like," said the gentleman, sla , kening the spevi of the bows. " I think you bad hetter allow me to accompany you. You are still pare and your hands tremble." "Yet I can drive quite well. It will be better fur me to go home alone." "Very well,"he said, leaping out. "But I thank you," commenced Janie, giving him her hand; and just then she realized that be tau handsome.

"Alt 1 you are right, I dare say," be laughed. " Women always are. Good by. h And ho was gone. " Perhaps it will be an advantage if ',precede ynu," said Dr. Stone, passing her in hisichaise. It was better. Me held the lines easily, and the horses followed the chaise indite most docile manner. She wondered if it was quite right to set the gentleman down a quarter of a mite from the town, and her cheek burned very uncom fortably. Who was he? She never told any one of this episode. At home all was absorbed with theons idea of Miss Fale's illness: Dr. Stonevronounced her in a critical state, yet she might live for years She lingered through the summer and the fall. Then came a change. She regained the use of her speech, but her strength was sinking fast. One midnight In November she died. Janie shed tint few tears She, had never loved her aunt. But her sense of calamity was terrible. She clasped the boy murmuring—, "Dore, what will they do with us now ?" She had heard the will real. Little Dore was indeed the heir; but, "Ca fsidtfol services ren• tiered," she was bequeathed the sum of five hundred dollars. P•ple were scandalized by this proceeding on the cart of the aunt. But that was the least of Janie s troubles. Would they not take Dore from her now? She could live somewhere, and ma) be tench a village Befitn.l; but she could not bear to think of having the boy Mken away from her. She sat alone in the old parlor, the child clinging to her with a sense of fear and loss, wh en Dr. Stone was shown in. She rose fa miliarly hi meet him. Lie had attended her aunt faithfully from the day she had called upon him. There was a little extra color in his face, though it was nothing compared to the brilliancy of his mustache. Pretty soon he said: "Miss Graham, will you allow me the liberty of a friend to aek you a few questioner' _ _ "Certainly. You have earned it. Dr. Stone." "Do yon intend to remain here?" "That I esnnot answer. I know nothing more than it is my wish to stay with Dore." "But he has another guardian now—one ap pointed by the %ail, you know." "I know,' paling slightly. "It is not probable that Mr. Golding will leavo the elti4l with you. Ile will, most likely, send hint to .ehool.” " But he may; I have been wilh fore so long, and he loves me so I And he isn't old enough to gn to school; he is only nix years old." "Oh ! my father taught me the Greek alpha bet at six years /lid." sai.l 111% Stone, laughing slightly, and walking the 11 ,or, evidently an noyed at something. Ile is quite enough " "D. you know Mr. Golding?" asks Janie. "Oh, yes I lie's a lawyer at Lennox," he said, absently "Ho'❑ do well by the boy, Janie. I am sorry you are so attached to him."

GIANT AND BISHOP GEN. POLK. While the General was in command of the post of Cairn, Bishop General Polk, General Pillow, and General Frank Cheatam, of the reb el army, were at Columbus, Kentucky. Flare of truce were occasionally sent back and forth between the two places, and the opposing gen erale were generally present Alter the conclu sion of business, It was fr« qnently the case that wine would be brought forth and toasts drank at parting. On one occasion General Pulk pro posed a toast, which, he said, all could drink. Those prtsent tilled their glasses, and he gave to 'General George Washington. As he paused purposely, at the end of the name, the compete) commenced to drink, when ho added, "the flrst rebel." General Grant had his glass nearly fin ished by that time, and It was no use to stop; but he exclaimed, " That was scareely fair, gun ere); bet I will be even with you some day."— The laugh was, of course, somewhat against him, but the party parted in good humor. Borne two weeks afterwards, another flag of truce WIP sent down to Columbus, General Grant emote panying It. After business was over, the rebel general pro duced the wine, as usual, and General Grant adroitly turned the conversation into State Rights, on which 'subject. Bonfheniers always loved to dilate—their rights being the alleged He for which they claimed to be lighting.— He allowed them to proceed at considerable length, without attempting to refute anything ; and they were, perhaps, flattering themselves with the Idea that they were converting bin) from the error of his ways. At length he arose to go, and proposed a toast at parting. Glasses were filled; and the general arose and gave, "Equal rights to all." He then made a pause, as General, Polk bad done, and when all wer e hurriedly drinking, be added, "white and black.' The horror of the chivalry at being inveigled in to drinking such a heretical Puma may be easily imagined, and they were rather disposed to feel angry, until General Grant remarked, "Now, General Polk, I think I am even with you for that rebel toast von made me drink at our last conference," Quick to see and appreciate a good Jake,theanger of the Southerners was Mim ed Into a laugh at the expense of their reverend general, who gracefully acknowledged Miami' flanked. - Irir."Efow do you like the character of St. Paul ' asked a parson of his landlady ono day.

"Gentlemen," said old Zim, "merit and long service to the party is no recommendation in this country. The wire-working schemers have it all their own way." "Aye," responded one of-the bar-room loafers. "they does the pickin' out and they expect sate do the voting." "But, gentlemen," continued old Zim.
