The negro had no master once,
But like the white man tree,
He owned his cabin, and his
Beyond the dark blue we;
His hair wee black and glossy then,
Though now 't is changed to gray,
And sad and heavy is We heart,
Which then was light and gay.
His home was where the white pearl grows,
Upon the res•wasbed strand,
Where gold is scattered illtiebt./.
Among the shining and:
A happy Wine, 'mid frAgrant flowers,,
With love to cheer him there;
His spirit and his limbs as tree
A s freest mountain air I
A wife he•tn his bosom pressed,
ith children smiling 'round,
And happiness within his heart
Her fullest measure found;
Until one day the white man eame-- .
Oim dark and hitter day—
And bound him by his hearth, and bore
Him from his home away.
He strugeled and he wept in vain—
His children and his wife
Plead with their tears for husband, sire,
Their light, their joy, their life !
The white man heeded not their prayer,
But from his native land
Drove him to where a black ship lay,
Close anchored off the strand.
For many, many, weary days,
Beneath a burning sky,
Bound in that black ship's gloomy hold,
The white man made him lie;
And when at last, a shore was gained
Beyond the Atlantic wave,
The white man stripped him of his gyves,
And drove him forth-a_sioce I .
Thus was the Negm'sfreed:ihriost,
By force of whip ind chain, •
And he, from home, wife, children, torn,
To see them ne'er again !

That death his soul should crave,

THE HIDDEN TREASURE.
A FAIRY TALE.
HY MRS. T. P. SMITH
" A (airy tale, 0, mother !" exclaimed
several little voices at once, as Mrs. J.
took her sent at the accustomed hour. to
tell the children a story. " Now% mother.
tell us a fairy tale ; every hotly sa)e they
are the most entertaining; and you know

had as lief tell you a fairy tale as any
other. but first• tell me what you think is
the meaning of .fairy.'"' One replied,
"beautiful being;" another, "did not
know ; " but the eldest boy said he thought
fairies were "imaginary beings." Taking
that for a definition, his mother then be•
gun the fairy tole called,
THE HIDDEN TREASURE
One evening, as a poor man and hie
wife, with five or six children, were sit
ting at the door of their cottage, one of the
children said, " Oh, father how poor we
are. Ido wish a good fairy would come
and tell us where we might find a great
treasure. I guess I would not sit all day
idle any more, and hive so little to eat."
NCI sooner said than done --it beautiful
woman, with ritlitint countenance, stood
before Matti, who ' said, .6 Little boy, I
heard your Wish and if you Will obey my
direetions,*yOu May fine a great treasure.'
Then' turning to the man, she said, "A
treasure lies hid in your grounds ; if you
will seek for H, 'you wilifind it, and may
hoOe it, it is not three fbet from the surface
either; begin to-morroio to dig for it."
She then went away. Thecluldren clap
ped their hands for joy, and the man and
his wife could hardly credit their ears, that
they lied really heard such a thing; for
they were very poor indeed ; though- the
man .hada large tract of land, it was uncul
tivated, yielded nothing, barely suffieiettf
pasturage fur a pool. cow; which afforded
them almost the only sure ',notirielMjent

to hear the fairy's words, andeould hard.

Alm .tre-tutuse.-
One day they dug Wterrible ha rd piece
of the land, and had to pull up some old
tree stumps and stones, dr.c.;round a large
cherry tree behind the hieese, and they
were very tired, That night a traveller
came that Way, and bad to stop there over
night. they lived so far from any other
house. As they , had no barn he tied his
horse to the cherry tree, and gave hint his
oats out of a bag he brought en , hia l baek.
The traveller went away next morning.
but in a few days they found that the oats
the horse had spilled and scattered sprung
up in the nicely dug ground. and they had
a little field .of.. oath.! , This pleased Mr.
Goodman very. much, and when the good
fairy next appeared he told her . of It. "
yes," she said, " it would be a good plan
to plant something in each place ter - you
dig it"—she said the next time she came
she would bring some' seeds for them.—
So they hid another object for' which tt
dig beside the finding of the treasure—tp
see thiege growing.
She was as good as her word, andhraught
the seed, and they dug so well they could
plant a great many melons and other nice
things which they never had before in
their lives; and the soil was so goed and
had been so nicely dug and turned oyer
for the treasure, that the plahle grew so
rapidly, and ripened so soon, that the next
time she came she told them they, had bet
ter stop digging awhile, just till they fauld
take care of the oats and strawberries. and
melons, and other things. They had eat
en as much of them as they wanted all the
season, and sold some to the nearest houses,
and now Mr. Goodman said they would
go next week to the nearest market town,
with the rest. So they went. The mar.
ket people said the strawberries were the
largest they had ever seen, and their mel
ons had brought the highest price, and the
mother surprised them all by showing .a
cheese she had made from the tpilk,, of
their cow, which had yielded twice, as
much, having had much better food. The
three yonfigest children had_ carried each
two baskets of strawberries, (the baskets
they made of willow twigs,) while the el
der ones and their father were loaded with
melons, pears, beans, corn, &c., and when
they had sold them and came out of limo
on their way home, a happier family ne
ver were seen. They , all had a, handful
of money they had earned themselves!—

M. CLAY AND THE GOAT.
Almost every body in Washington city
remembers an old he•gnat, which formal
ly inhabited Naylor's liyery on Pennsyl
vania Avenue. This animal was in all
probability, the most independent citizen
of. the metropolis—he belonged to no par
ty, though he frequently gave passengers
striking proofs of hie adhesion to pie lev

stepped anywhere in his vicinage, Billy
was sure to make at him—horns and ad..
The boys took great delight in irritating
the long bearded gentleman, and frequent
ly so annoyed him that he would make
war against lamp-posts and trees to their
great amusement.
One day the luminary of the west,
Eieo
ry Clay, was passing down the Avenue,
and seeing the boys intent on worrying
Billy into a fever, stoppedo and with his
characteristic humanity, expostulated with'
them on their cruelty. The boys listened
in silent awe to the eloquent appeal of the
great etatet man ; but was all eheroltee to
Billy, who—the ungrateful pomp I—a.
rose majestically on his hinder legs, and
made a desperate plunge at his friend and
advocate. Mr. Clay—although he had
not "slain a Mexican," proved himself too'
much for his horned assailant ; he seized
on both horns of the dilemma. and then
came the "tug of war"—for Greek had met
Greek. The struggle was lung and doubt•

they,
Mr. Clay did as he was told and after
many severe efforts, brought • Billy down
on his side.. Here he looked at the boys
