A FAMILY NEWSPAPER, ___......_ ~....__
Success is generally regarded, in the
opinien of the public, as the bust test of a
man ; and there is some foundation for the
opinion.. But impressions greatly vary as
to what constitutes true success. With the
greater number it means success in business,
and making money. Of one we hear it
said ; "There goes a successful man : he
has made thirty thousand pounds within the
last twelve months." Of another: "There
you see a man who commenced life as a
navvie ; hut by'dint of industry, perseve
rance, and energy, he has amassed a large
fortune, bought a landed estate, and lives
the life of a country gentleman, though he
can hardly yet write his own name ; that's
what I call success." Or of another: "That
is Mr. —, the great astronoineY, who was
originally the sun of a small farmer, and by
diligent study and application he has now
reached the first rank among scientific men ;
yet they-say he is very poor, and can bare
ly make the ends meet." We suspect that
most people would rather exchange places
ivith the navvie than with the astronomer,
so ready are we to estimate success and
worldly position according to the money
standard.
The idea instilled into•the minds of most
boys, from early life, is that of "getting On."
The parents test themselves by their own
success in this respect ; and they impart
the same notion to their children. "Mak
Biller, Jock," said .a . Scotch laird to his son,
"mak Biller—honestly if you can, but tusk
it." The seine counsel, if not in the same
words, is that which is imparted, at least by
example, ii not in express language, to most
boys. They have set before them the gle,
ry of making their fortunes. That is their
"mission," and many perform it diligently,
heeding little else but money -making
throughout • life. Public opinion justifies
them in their coarse—public opinion appro
ving above all things the man who has
"made his fortune." • But public opinion
is not always correct; amisometimes,asin
this case, it is obnoxious to the sarcastic
query of the French wit who once asked—

The Blind Boy
It was a blessed summer's day;
Thal flowers bloomed, and air was mild,
The little birds poured fourth (heir lay,
And tvery dung in nature smiled.
In pleasant ihoucht I wandered on
Beneath the deep wood's simple shade
Tilt, suddenly, I came upon
Two children who had thither strayed.
Just at an aged beech tree's ft.ot
A little bey and girl reclined;
His hand in hers she gently put—
And then I saw the boy was blind
The children knew not I was'near—
A tree concealed me from their view—
But all they said I well could hear,
And I could see all they might do.
"Dear Mary," said the poor blind boy,
"That little bird sings very long:
So do you see him in his joy,
And is he pretty as his song 7"
"Yes Edward, yes," replied the maid,
see the bird on yonder tree."
The poor boy sighed and gently said:
“Sister, I wish that I could see !
“The flowers, you say, are very fair,
And bright green leaves are on the trees,
And bretty birds are singing there;
How beautiful for one who sees
"Yet I the fragrant flowers can smell,
And I can feel the green lears shade,
And I can hear. the notes that swell
From those dear birds that Gad has made
"Oh sister, God to me is kind,
'Though sight, alas! He has not given;
But tell me, are there any blind
Among the children up in Heaven'!"
"No dearest Edward, there all see;
But why ask me a thing so odd !"
"Oh Mary, He's so good to me,
I thought I'd like to LooK at God !
Erelong disease his hand had laid
On that dear boy so meek and mild,
His widowed mother wept and prayed
That God would spare her sightless child
He felt her warm tears on his face,
And said. ..oh, never weep for me ;
I'm going to a bright, bright place,
Where Mary says I God shall tee.
' , And you'll come there, dear Mary, too;
lint mother, dear, when you come there,
Tell Edward, mother, that 't is you—
You know I never saw you hear!"
He spoke no more, but sweetly smiled,
Until the final blow was given;
When Grid took up that poor blind child,
And,opened first his eyes—in Heaven.

This man lived upon a small farm in the

It would have done you good to witness
