The Child's Portrait.
DY J A NT. T. WOUTm.VOTO.V.
Il lonkcili on me placidly,
ThM sweet nntl simple face
Not a shallow dims its Ioniums,
Not a cloud is on its grace.
Hut the purity of peaceful thought
Is in that childish gaze,
And the smile is full of innocence
Thai on the red lip plays.
It is a fa co where friends have looked
Willi many a fear and caro,
For all that life might bring to one
Whose dawning was bo fair.
A father's eye had followed him
With fond and earnest pride,
And a mother's glance had loved to dwoll
On the bright ono by her side.
And fervently their visions sought
His future to unroll
And prayerfully ihoir spirits asked
A blessing on ils scroll ;
And that the light of many years
Alight rise upon his gaze ;
Alas ! we know not what wo do
In asking length of dayi !
A sad and weary-hearted man
That lovely boy becamo
A worshipper of worldliness,
A smilor upon shame !
A dreaming and a doubling one,
A scorncr 'mid his woe,
A scoffer at the holiest things
The human heart can know.
He lived to loso the very hope
Of ever winning rest
And they who wished that he had died
Were those that loved him bosl.
Fur he had not a promise left
Of all his childhood gave,
And hopcleBS were the bitter tears
That bathed the skeptic's grave !
How little dream we, as we gaze
On youth's unsulllicd brow,
The mournful record time may writo
On the heart so tranquil now.
Ah ! meekly bhould our spirits bow,
When the pure and lovely die,
For lenghlh of life but soils the soul
WI1060 home is in the sky 1
A TOUCH OK THE SUBLIME.
" I'll climb tho frosty mountain,
And the i c I'll coin the weather;
I'll wrench the ruiubow (rum the skies,
And tie both ends together.'
I'll mount the clear cerulean,
To shun the templing gypsies;
I'll play at bath with the bun und moon,
And fright yo with eclipses."

A YANKEE OUTWITTED.
' Jonathan,' a cunning and shrewd land
lord in tho western part of New York, was!
unfortunately tho owner of a most mischiev'

Hie vexatious tricks of tl'u dog, the m?n con
eluded that Watch must dio. As there it.
more than one way to hang a dog, the old
man was pondering in his own mind as to
the best mode, when, to his no small sur
prise and pleasure, iho tandem team of i
Yankee pedlar drove to the door.

' Wal, I'm not particular about cash,

' 1 havo a watch,' said the landlord, 'that

Tho pedlar quickly brought in an assort

Landlord 1 should bo willing to swap
my watch fur this clock,if you like; it is on.
in tho field now, with one of my workmen,

Pedlar How old is it ?

P. Whal kind of a thing is il to run?

L. Yes, a sicel one.
Wal,' said the pedlar, 'you may have

' It's a bargain,' said tho landlord, and he

Ha went out, whistled a moment for hir

A CHILI) TO BOAST OF.
A farmct's wife, in speaking of the stnnrt

TRANSCENDENTALISM.
Tho lollowing is the last grand effort of

" Donl be sheered, Squire; don't bp

" Hut the grave digger ?' said I.
" Well, says he. ' iho year afore I

should I overtake but Elder Stephen
Grab, of lieechmeadows, a mounted on
a considerable of a clcver-lookiu' Ua:k

luaht ho looked like otic, and spoke like

moral law, and pchaps an inch longer,

il was him. And ho seemed to feel it;

look o'u iumph about him, as if he had

it her age; bill tho critter knowed how

ever so long, afore he forced her j nvj

near losm' ol a linger, lor his curiosity;
mil as he hopped and danced about

his mare; in such an all fired passion,

ears, and said, Oh. my dear friend,
don't swear; don't swear; it'd very
wicked. I will lake your pony, I'll
ask no boot; if you will only promiie
not to swear. You-shall have Iho mam
as she stands. I'll give up and swap

Well, the trade was made, ihe saddles

'Well, we had no sooner turned to go,
ban the French people sot up a cheer that
made all rinij agaip; and they sung our,
'La Fossy Your, and shouted it again and
agin ever so loud.
'What's that? sais Steve.
'Well, I didn't knew, for I never lieerd
