THE AMERICAN GIRL, , Our hearts are with our native hind, Our song is with her glory ; Her warriors' wreath is in our hand, Our lips breathe out her story. Her lofty hills and valleys green, Are shining bright before us ; And like a rainbow sign is seen Her proud flag waving o'er us. And there are smiles upon our lips For those who meet her foeman, For glory's star knows no eclipse, When smiled upon by woman. For those who brave the mighty deep, And scorn to threat of danger, . We've smiles to cheer, and tears to weep For every ocean ranger. Our hearts are with our native land, Our songs are for her freedom ; Our prayers are for the gallant band Who strike where honor leads them We love the taintless air we breathe, 'Tis freedom's endless power We'll twine for him an endless wreath Who scorns a tyrants power. They tell of France's beauties fair, Of Italy's proud daughters : Of Scotland's lasses—England's fair, And nymphs of Shannon's waters. We need not boast their haughty charms, Though lords around them hover, Our glory lies in freedom's arms— A FunnmAx for . a lover ! fikautilui tnrtj. THE MATCH GIRL •Of Kentucky., " Six for a tip ! matches ! matches !" The voice was clear and glad as the Winds, and Russel Hartley turned to see from whence it proceeded ; a little bare-footed girl, about ten years old, with the sunniest, sweetest face he had ever seen, was tripping just behind, and, as he turned, she held up her •Inatchcs with such a winning, pleading, heavenly smile in her blue eyes, that he bought nearly all she had at once. Iler hair fell in•soft light waves rather than curls, nearly to her waist, and a hole in her little straw hat let in a sunbeam upon it that turned it half to gold. In spite of the child's coarse an ttered apparel, in spite of her lowly occu ation, her manner, her step, her expression, the very tone of her voice unconsciously betrayed a native delicacy and refinement, which deeply inter ested the high bred youth whom she addressed. Impelled by an irresistible impulse, lie lingered by her side as she proceeded. What is your name, my child ?" he gently asked her. - " Virginia, sir, what is yours ?" " Hartley Russel Hartley," he replied, smiling at her artless and native simplicity; " and where is your home ?" " Oh, I have no home, at least not much of one. I sleep in the barns here," and again she looked up in his face, with her happy and touching smile. " And your mother ?" 'ln an instant the soft brow Was shadowed, and the uplifted eyeS glistened with tears. " I will tell you all about it, if you will come close to me ; I don't like to talk loud about it," she replied in low, faltering tones. Russel Hartley took her little sunburnt hand in his, and bent his head in earnest attention. " We had,,,been on the great sliip, ever so many days, Mother, and father and I and all the other people ; and one night we were in the room they called the ladies cabin, and mother had just undressed me, and I was sitting on her knee singing :the little hymn she had taught me, and she had her arm around my neck—my mother loved me, ah ! so dearly—and she was so sweet and good, nobody will ever be so good to me again !" and here the little creature tried to repress a sob, and wiped her eyes with a torn apron. " Well, and so I was singing my pretty hymn— Of old th' Apostle walked the wave, • And seaman walked the land, A power was near him strong to save, For Jesus held his hand. OiYhy should I fear when danger's near ? Ptil safe on sea or land, • For I've in heaven a Father dear, And he will hold my hand. G 00 7 50 800 2 00 50 Though on a dizzy height, perchance, With faltering feet I stand, No dread shall dim my upward glance, For God will hold my hand. But oh ! if doubt should cloud the day, And sin beside me stand, Then firmest, LEST I Loss MT WAY, My father hold my hand ! - All at once there was a dreadful confusion sound ; rumbling, crashing, shrieking noise—a terrible pain, and then—l woke up, and there I was on a bed in a strange room, and some people standing by flie fire talking about a 41 Lit4l Ili4Uli Tblllat3s ALLENTOWN, PA., JANUARY 24, 1815. steamboat that had burst hpr boiler the day before, and I found that I had been washed on shore, and that Mr. Smith had found me and taken me home to his wife, and she had put me into a warm bed and tried to rouse me ; but she couldn't until I woke up myself the next day. And when I cried for my own sweet mother, they looked sad and said sho was drowned, and I should never see her again.— And•l wanted to be drowned too, but they said that was wicked, and I was sorry .I said so, for I would not be wicked for the world. Mother always loVed to have me good ; tind so I always tried to be as happy as they tott me I must, but I could not—for a great while—l used to pine so at night for her arms around me ! At last I found a little comfort in doing just as she would like to have me, and in knowing that she could see ine still and in talking to her ; and I used to sing my little hymn up to her in heaven, just as I did when I sat on her knee, and I sing it now every night. Mr. Smith and his wife both died anl left the all alone again ; but Lam hardly ever sad now, for I am almost always good, and you know good people must not be unhappy ;" and the beautiful loving smile shone again through her lingering tears as she finished her simple story. • Russel was touched to the heart. His own eyes were moist, and bending down, he kissed the innocent cheek of the little orphan, and bade her to go with him, and he would give her money to feed and clothe herself. But the child drew gently, and somewhat proudly lwk and said earnestly " Oh ! I never take money as a gift ; mother would not like it." Then kissing tenderly the gentle hand that still held hers, she tripped lightly around a corner, end a moment after, Hartley heard her soft, silver childish voice, tremble far in the distaimef singing " Matches ! matches ! six for a fip ! Who'll buy my matches, ho !" Russel Hartley kept that sweet picture in his soul, undimmed through years of travel, and change, anti pare. He visited with enthusiasm the noble galleries of paintings and sculpture in England, France, and Italy, and many a gem of art was enshrined and hallowed. in the music tablets of memory, but there was none to rival the gem of nature—the matchless little match girl of Kentucky, with her fair hair streaming on her scanty red cloak, the glad and innocent smile in her childish eyes, and the lovely beam stealing through the hole in the old straw hat to light as a message from heaven the lovely head of the orphan girl. The beautiful ray of light—made more beautiful by its chosen rest ing place, giving and receiving grace, it-seemed a symbol of the Father's love for the poor moth erless. It was only the hole in the hat that let in the sunshine—it was her poverty and her lonely, lowly state, that made her especially the child of His divine pity and tenderness; and they, like the sunbeam, changed to gold her daily care, and smiled through every cloud that crossed her little heart. Seven years flew by—on butterfly wings to joy and thoughtlessness, on laden ones to sor row and " hope deferred"—and our Virginia, now a lovely girl of seventeen, had earned money enough by her bewitched way of offering matches for sale, to introduce herself as a pupil in one of the first boarding schools of the country not to commence but to finish her edu cation; for with a passionate love of books, she found means to cultivate her tastes and talents in many ways. The lovely and lonely little orphan has strug gled with hunger and cold, and fatigues with temptation in its most alluring, beguiling forms, and evil in a thousand shapes, yet she had kept the heavenly Sunshine of her soul pure and unclouded through it all. he had never taken money as a gift, nor a brible. She had assisted from her little store Many a child of misfortune, still humbler than herself and with faith, truth and purity—an angel guard around her—by the light or her own innocent smiles, she glided like a star through the gath ering clouds unharmed, unstained, unshed owed. In the words of our beautiful poet— " Peace charmed the street beneath her feet, o And honor charmed the air ;" pure music—the music of her own sweet heart arid silver voice, went always with her through the world. It was on the evening preceeding that on which the annual ball of the School took place. The young ladies were • discussing round the school-rooni fire the dresses they were to wear. Virginia, a little apart, listened to them, and half wished sho had a fairy mother, like Cin derella's to deck her for the festival. Pearls, diamonds, japonicas, satins, laces, velvets ! She had none of these !. . She had only the plain white dress in which she had been crowned Queen of May the Spring preceeding. It was so very •plain, not even 'a bit of trimming around the throat. " And what aro you going to wear Miss Lin den ?" said ono of the aristocrats of the school, turning with what she fancied to bo an imperial air, towards the young stranger. my Virginia blushed, and said simply, " white muslin." " And, what ornaments ?" Virginia smiled. " Oh, I can find some bright autumn leaves for a wreath." ' Imogcn Gray would have giVen her diamond necklace fOr such a blush and smile, for her own sallow cheek was never illuminated ; but. she sneered nevertheless at the white muslins and garlands of leaves, and designed no further question. Virginia's delicate and sensitive spirit felt the sneer intensely, and she left the room with swelling heart and tearful eyes. Once safe, however, in the asylum of her own little cham ber, peace descended like a dove into her soul, and after undressing she knelt in her night robes by the side of her bed, and said her pray er, and sang her childish hymn : I'll know no fear when danger's near, I'm safe on sea or land, For I've in Heaven a Father dear. And he will hold my hand. Doubt and danger and sin were nearer than she thought, but her little hand• was held by Ono who would not lel her fall. As she rose from her devotions, she saw, for the first time, a box on the table by the bed.. •It was ad dressed on tho cover, simply, " Virginia."— She opened it wondering, and found a set of ex quisite pearl ornaments for the arm, neck and head. • Her little heart beat with girlish delight.— She buried to the glass and wound around her hair a chain of snow white gems, less fair and pure than the innocent brow beneath. Next she bared her graceful aria, and placed a brace let there. How exquisitely the delicate orna ments became her childish loveliness. She thought she never looked so pretty—not even when she used to deck her hair with wild flowers by the clear pool in the woods, and she could wear thorn to the fall ? But who could have sent them ? Again she looked at the box, and this time she saw a note peeping beneath the cotton wool on which the gems had rested. Virginia's fair check flushed as she read— •' Let innocence accept the gift of love, e " HARRY GREY." Iht . 4 the bracelet been a serpent with its . deadly sting in her arm, Virginia could scarce ly have unclasped it with more fearful haste.— The chain was snatched from her head, and then. the fair child threw herself again on her knees and buried her face in her hands. After •a silence of some minutes, broken only by some faint sobs, she sung once more in low tremu lous tones, the hymn which seemed tobet‘a tal isman for all evil, and then calmly laYingAier head on the pillow, and murmuring the name, which was music to her soul, sunk into tl soft and deep slumber of innocence and youth. For pearly a year had the young libertine harry Grey pursued her with his unhallowed passion, aided as - he vainly imagined, by 'his costly and tasteful gif,s ; but there seemed a magic halo around the young Virginia through which no shadow of evil could penetrate. Be sides the native delicacy and purity of her mind, there were two other influences at work in the beautiful web of her destiny to• prevent any course of dark thread mingling in its tissue : one was her spiritual communication with her moth er, and the other the'afFectionate remembrance Of Russel Hartley the only being in whose eyes she had ever read the sympathy for which the lone_ ly and loving heart yearned always. It was evening again. The young ladies had assembled, dressed for the ball, in the drawing room—all but:Virginia. " Where is the sweet child !!! asked an invalid teacher, to whom she had endearOd herself by her graceful and affix tionate attentions. • " She was so long helping sister and me to dress," said a little shy looking girl, " that she has been belated." • "I will go.rind assist her," Acid the princi pal of the school, pleased with this proof of ten der heartedness on the part ofher,pupil. She softly opened the door of Virginia's room and almost started at the charming picture which met her eye. Robed in White, with her singularly beautiful hair falling in fair soft curls about her face, which was lighted up by a smile of almost rapturous hope and joy, the young girl stood in an attitude of enchanting grace, rising in both hands, to adjust amid the braids behind, a half wreath of glowing and richly tinted autumn leaves. " Let me arrange it for you my child,'.' said the lady approaching and Virginia bent her fair head modestly to her bidding, and then hand in hand, they descended to the drawing room. Many of the company had arrived—the doors that led to their room had been thrown open, and Virginia was almost dazzled by the splendor of the scene. into which she was thus suddenly ushered. She blushed beneath the eyes that were riveted upon her as she passed. An angel !" " a grace !" " a muse !" whis pered the gentlemen to each . other. There was one among them a noble, chivalric-looking man—who did not speak his admiration. An undefinable something in the heavenly beauty NUMBER 16 of that face had touched in his soul a cord which had not vibrated for many years before. Vir ginia knew him at once. The rich chestnut curls of twenty had now assumed a darker tinge, the eye had given place to a manly dig nity of mein, but there was no mistaking the sequel in the glance of Russel Hartley. And Virginia was decidedly the belle of the ball. Gay, but gracefully so, for her sportive mood was softened and restrained by a charm ing timidity that enchanted her loveliness ten; fuld, she looked and moved like one inspired. She had met Hartley's admiring gaze, she . was almost sure he would ask an introduction, and she felt as if her feet and heart were sud denly gifted with wing's. She floated down the dance like a peri througlit the air, and then Rus sel approached and was introduced. . The sunny smile of the little match-girl shone in her eyes, and she accepted his arm for a promenade. " Surely I have seen that look somewhere," he exclaimed, half aloud. " Matches ! six for a fip !" murmured Vir ginia, looking archly up in his face, and the mystery wits at once explained. Imogene Grey's diamond necklace was worth less dross in comparison with the wreath of au tumn leaves, and all her brother's costly offer ings could not have purchased the smiles which accompanied the gift. Reader, if you ever come to Kentucky, just come to me fora letter of introduction to Nrs. Russel Hartley. She is looked up to and re spected, and I am sure you will enjoy her grace ful and cordial attention, and the luxuries of her elegant home, all the more for remembering that the distinguished and dignified woman to whom you are making your very best bow, was once the little match girl of my story.. The Selection of EttOness. Men have physical, moral and mental gifts that peculiarly fit them for some pursuits, and peculiarly unfit them for others ; and the taste for, and the attraction of, certain pursuits should incline each young man to look well at his chosen occupation, .and when once chosen, to follow it to the end ; and his earlier training should have special reference to his position and occupation. Before this choice is made, be ` should consid er the obstacles in his path, and his fitness to remove or overcome them. Law, medicine, divinity, mechanics, present an inviting field. One may .shine in the law who would be a dri veller in the pulpit ; and many a man has at tempted to mend a broken limb with not talent enough to repair the leg of a stool. Yourv , men have marked characteristics and -talents ; these all are well known as their faces, Ic etter known often to others than to thc,m sives. One is quick in fingers ; another would _u ake a capital salesman. One has a „ ,leg,al mind and would revel in the intricates of the law ; another can only generalize, and is happy only in active employment. Some hai-e great dispatch ; others are cautious, careful and trust worthy in minute matters. The bent of each mind, the taste and the talent must be consult ed in the selection of business. All business has a settled price or marked value. Success is to be won by obeying the laws of the calling selected ; and who would be eminent in any pursuit, must pay the market price far success. Two kinds of business may be found, to one of which the aspirant for em ployment must address himself. The one is bad and the other good ; the one can be found in a day, the' other may be sought for diligently and Often with " patience." The one pays at once : for the other money must often be paid. *: lon* 9 Thumb. A letter from the N. Y. corresvndent of a Philadelphia paper, says : Talking of precocities, we met Gen. Toni Thumb in the Eighth Avenue cars last Wed nesday, sitting beside one of his handsome sisT, tors. Ho has two sisters, both married now, and both stout, rosy, round-faced, good size, and good humored young women. His father is rather a tall, dressy country , farmer, with a profusion of gold chains on his vest, but no pro fusion of learning higher up—for in his schocl days money was scarce, and hard work abun dant. The tiny General is now about twenty two years of age, and is becothing stouter every year. But positively he is no taller" now than ho was twelve years ago, and ho can not yet clipib upon a common chair without assistance. His soul, it isi true, is not much more capacious than his body. He is penurious to a degree, and selfish beyond, expression. He has all the ways of a child, however, and time does not appear to mature his mind, whatever effect:it may have upon his physical condition. Tom Thumb lives with his parents in Connecticut, has his pony; his sled, his fishing tackle, &c.'; and, they say, (as he cannot even write yet) is about to be sent to school to acquire a decent education ; should ho apply himself diligently for a couple of years, who knows but ho wi 7 l got an LL. D. from old Harvard ; if ho does not, it will be from no reluctance on the part of the latter body. • Why Don't He Dolt. When a farmer knows that a gate is better, and, as a time-and-labor-saving fixture, cheap er than a set of bars and posts, and without call ing on a carpenter he can himself make one.-- 1174 don't he do it ? When he has no other fastening to his gates and barn•door than a steno rolled against them and a single evening after supper is able to , make a better one,• Why don"t he do it? Or when ho sees the boards dropping from• his barns and out-buildings, and like heaps of" rubbish lying in piles about his premises, and need only nailing on again, Why don't he do , it ? Or if he is afraid of the expense of nails and . is always crying up the maxim of Dr. Franklin, to " save the pence and the pounds will take care of themselves," 'and he knows that the same Dr. Franklin alSo said, that " many men. are penny wise and pound foolish," and ho is not careful to think of the precept contained the latter, Why don't lie do it ? If it is a saving of nearly half the manure of a farmer's stock by keeping them shut up in. yards, instead of running at large through most of the winter, Why don't lie do it ? If he knows that many of his fields would be greatly improved by ditching, and by the re moval of large stumps and stones, Why don't lie do it ? And when he knows that bis pastures would yield nearly double the feed, and of a better . quality-, if the bushes were all cut and subdued, Why don't he do it ? And if he can add fifty per cent. to the pro duct of his clover-fields, and, even his pastures, •by the use of gypsum, Why don't he do it? If. a farmer of fifty acres has (as he should have) use for a good corn-sheller and one of the many improved fanning mills, and he •has not already obtained both, Why don't he do it ? And if it is cheaper, actually cheaper, to burn , dry wood than green, and to use a stove in stead of an open fire, place, Why don't he do it"?' 0n.5 tinti ('The following is certainly the most touching moonlight scene we have ever read : After whirling sometime in the ecstatic mazes of a delightful 'Waltz, Caroline and myself step ped out unobserved on to the balcony, to enjoy a few moments of the solitude' so precious to lovers.
