If An Hour at the Old Play Ground I sat nn hour to-day, John, Beside the old brook stream, When we were boys in the °bleu time. When manhood was a dream. The brook to choked with fallen leases, The pond is dried away— I scarce belioro that von would know •The dear old place to day. The school-house is no more, John, Beneath our locust trees; The wild roPo by the window side, No more wares.in the breeze; The scattered stones look desolate, The Roil they rested on Has been ploughed up by stranger hands, Since you and I were gone. The chestnut tree is deed, John, And what is sadder now— The brokensrape-vine of our swing Hangs on the withered bough ; I read:our:names upon the bark, And found the pebbles rare.. Laid up beneath the hollow side, As we had piled them there; Beneath the grass-grown bank, John, I looked for our old spring., That bubbled down the. alder path, Three paces from the swing ; The rushes grow upon the brink, The pool is black and bare, And not a foot, this many a day, It scorns, has trodden there. I took the old blind road,John, That wandered up the hill ; 'Tis darker. than Wand to be, And seems in lone cud still! The birds sMg yet among the boug,hr, Whore once the sweet grape hung, But not a voice of homed kind Where all our voices rung. I sat me on the fence. John, That lies as in old time, The same half pannel in the path We used so oft to climb— And thought how o'er the bars of life Our playmates had passed on, And left me counting on this spot The faces that are gone. THE WI OF LIM. • There was as beautifula Scotch ballad. ny this title; as I ever siw in my life; it made a very strong impression. on me; but as the ballad is not to found, I will endeavor to tell the story in plain prose : The Laird of' Linn, in Galway, was one of the richest land proprietors in Scotland. Besides the lands and dwellings, he had flocks and herds, and a good stock of gold. Moreover, he was a man of frugal and par simonious disposition, so that the men of Galway avoided hi&company, and the whole town cried shame on him. Nevertheless, his riches grew and increased to a mighty sum, and there was no telling what heaps of treasure he had snugly concealed. The Laird of Linn did not marry till late in life, and his wife died within a year of his marriage. She left. him one child, a son, who was the joy and plague of his] existence. Though naturally of a noble and generous temper, he was reckless and extravagant. Seeing and hearing his father ridiculed every day for his miserly temper and habits, lie resolved at all events not to be, like him, and spend-all he could lay iris hands on among lew,dissolute com panions, in riotous living—pe l true Is it that one extreme, ; often produces„another. It was in fain', thitt his father .remonstrated with him; he only greW Waree.as • he grew older. ' • ' At last the Laird . of Linn lay on his death bed. He had outlived all his near relations, and he had no friends, so thakto was oblig ed to leave all his substance.. t*, ..soci, :and . beside, next to his gold he this prodi-• gal heir. Previous to his .detA he called the heir of Linn to his bedside; and .thus spoke: my son, when my lips are cold in death, and my tongue silent 'in the grave, I. know how it will be with you. You will spend all the substance of your ancestors, and all the gold I get together, in dissipation and extravagance. Nvertheless I'do not wish my son to live a beggar. Therefore give heed to my only dying command, and if you disregard it, may a father's dying curse cling to you. The upper chamber of my house, in Kippletringan, is now locked up, anti I have thrown the key into the sea. When you have lost both gold and lands, when you have not a friend, who will lend you a ban bee, and when you are actually suffering for a crust to appease your hunger, break the door open, and you will find a certain relief ; but if you open the door before that time, I say again, may a father's curse cling to you." With tcse word's the old man l'ell back and expired. The heir of Linn did not grieVe long for his parent. Ho soon after threw open his house to all comers. His forests fell beneath the : axe. His chimneys were always smo king, a hundred men eat daily at his board, atid he bought horses and hounds, and lent money, without counting it, to his dissolute companions; he jested, and drank, and gam bled, as if he could not get rid of his sub stance in all of these wads; be took no care of' his affairs, but gave up the guidance of them to n bailiff or a steward, named John of Scales ' who. was a knave and a notorious usurer. John cheated his master in a vari ety of waya, and put more than half his'rent in his own pocket. At last what the heir of Linn's father had foreseen came to pass. His money was all gone and he had ne means of keeping up his excesses except by selling his lands,.but no one was rich enough to buy them except John of Scales, and every one knew how ho came by his money. The young Laird was desperately in want of cash to pay hrs gam ing debts, and Was moreover heated with wine when the unjust steward offered to buy his estate. It was a hard case ; but af ter much discussion he agreed upon the bar gain.. J. T. BURDGE. • 1.13000. . " Give me your gold, good' John Of Ideals', and my lands shall ho yours forayer," sold the heir of Liun. BY HARRY moNvonD BY WILLIAM J. SNELLING Then John counted down the goad,wlean .. gold, and a hard bargain his . master had of it, For every pound thet;Tciliti agreed, the ! land was worth three. • The last mofiey went like the first, and -1 the heir of nn was a beggar.. He first went to the house, that had once been his . ervri,lint :now belonged to John of' Scales. I To seek some relief; he looked into..the.win. i dors of thel.p . eat.banquet'liall, but there was no feasting soing . on' in it. The fire was ' out and the dinner table taken away, and all I was desolate and dismal.. " Here's sorry I cheer," said the heir of Linn: • Julio would not give him a penny, but told him to'go to the friends he had spent so much money upon foolishlY. Ile did so, but it did no good. Some pretended not Ito know him, and none would lend him a I thrilling, or even offer him a dinner, so he' 1 wandered about forlorn and hungry for two days; for work he could not, and to beg he was ashamed. At last, in his extreme mis ery, he bethought himself 'of his father's dying words. " I hove not sold the house in Kippletrigan yet," said lie ' " for no one would buy it." I will go and break ,open the • upper , chamber. My father said T Iwould find relief there, and perhaps he meant treasure. If it should . prove' so, I (will he a wiser man than I was before, and snot waste it on knaves. * • * *. * * 1 To the house ten he went, and broke the I chamber door op n. Ho found relief' in. i deed. There was no ing in the room, except a high stool, an directly over it a halter, dangling from a hook in the ceiling. He looked up and read these words: " Ali ! graceless wretch and wanton - ) fool ! You are ruined forever. This is the only relief for those who have wasted their pat trimony as you have done. Behold then —put the halter , around your neck, and jump from the stool, and save your family from disgrace and beggary. " " Very excellent counsel, " said the heir of Linn, and as'l must either hang or starve I think I'll take my father's advice and hang. - It is the shortest death of the two. ''' So ho mounted fastened, the halter round his neck, and kicked the stool from under. But the heir of Linn was not to die so. The board into which the hook was driven gave way with, his weight, and be fell on the floor with 'a shower of gold coins rattling about his ears. I will not say' that he felt no pain the . , next day, but nt that moment ho felt none. Joy rushed' into his . heart like a torrent, at seeing himself rescued from death and beggary: The space be tween the coaling and the roof contained an enormous treasury. On the upper side of' the board from which he thought to sus pend himself, was fastened a letter address ed to him. lie hastily tore it open and read as follows : " My dear son, I knew your character and no expostulations or,. advice can. wean you from the despirate pours() you are pur -1 suing. Nothing but misery sharper than 1 death can work the cure from you. If, therefore, your misfortunes and sufferings I should be so grievous that you prefer death Ito their endrance you . will not rashly ., en • i counter them again. You have the trial; take my gold, redeem • your' lands, and be coon a better roan." • 1 The heir of Linn did not leave the4pot without putting up a prayer to Heaven for the soul _of a parent whose admirable wis dom had discovered the means. of .raising him from beggary and dimpair to affinence; and of weaning him from the follies and vices which had so diegrabed hie character. To evince. his gratitude, he resolved to amend his life from that day- forward, and become all a father's heart could wish. ' But the first thought he would make one ' more trial of his false friends on Whom•he had wasted his tithe; his ,substance, and his 'eharacter. He therefore kept his newly. discovered wealth a great secret, until he heard that John Of Scales was to give a grand: entertaininetit; anif . all the lords and 'ladiciaof-Golway wore. to' he there. • When the heir of Linn entered his father's hall, it was 'crewded with richly dressed gen-: try, but he.was in beggar's rags:.' He appeal. ed to the charity of the company, Saying he' was starving. , To one he said, "you have dined at my board a ; thousand times; will, you deity me the which 'fall from my own ?" To anOther, I gaveyou a pair of steeds and trappings." And . to .another he said, "I lent, you a thousand pounds,, and never asked you ttfrepaynie:f ands° onto all the rest of' the' company: • But instead of remembering his faVori•they'reyiled him and called 'him a spendthrift, -beggar, and all manner of vile.:nantes:o!. , Somp - said it was a shame that such a .wretohed 'looking object should •be snffered, to 4mme veining them; and one to whom more than , alllthe rest, his purse had been o en, called on:the servants to thrust hil 7 u Pio:loons: But one .man took 4' art..: ICW,IIB ;XIVI• ter Rieharn Lakeland, a, poor ymensor, sop, Of a wealthy gentlemen.
