BY MU. *ARV GRAHAM,
I was sitting in my room one morning,
feeling all "out of sorts" about something
or other, when an orphan child, whom I
had taken to raise, came in with a broken
tumbler in her hand,
.and said, while her
young face was pale, and her little lip quir
emir
•See, ma'am ! I went to take this tumb
ler Irani the dresser to get 'Anna a drink of
water, and I let it fall."
I was in a Iretful humor before the
child came in, and her appearance, with the
broken tumbler in her band, did'nt tend to
help, me to a better state of mind. She
was suffering a good deal of pain in conse
quence of the accident, and needed a kind
word to quiet the disturbed - beatings of her
heart. But she had come to me in an un
fortunate moment.
...Non are a careless little girl !" said I
severely, taking the fragments ofglass from
her trembling hands, very careless
little girl, and I am displeased with you!"
I slid no more, but my countenance ex
pressed even stronger rebuke than my
Words. The child.lingered near me for a
few moments, and then shrunk away from
the room. I was sorry in a moment that
I had permitted myself to speak unkindly
to the little girl, for there was no need •of
my doing so, and moreover, she had taken
my words, es I could see, deeply to heart.
I had made her unhappy without a cause.
The breaking of the tumbler was an ac.ci
deaulikely to happen to any one, and the
ebild , evirkedy felt bad enough about what
had amused without having my displeas
ure added thereto. If I was unhappy be.

in

nneonsequenen whatever. Hut this would
' 4ltsve been to hi' to.ulp an ael.now ledge-

and an Instinctive feeling of pride remon
strated against that.
"Ah met" I sighed. "Why did I per-

How small ate the causes . that sometimes

Borne who read this may think that-I
was very wetitto let a hastily uttered nen'

What ire a . child's feelings 1
I have been a child ; and, is a child,
have been blamed severely by &boom whom
I desired to please, and felt that !unkind
words fell heavier• and more painfully,
sometimes, than blows. I could; therefore,
understand the nature of Jane's feeling.,
and sympathise with her to a certain ex
tent.
All through the thy' June mixed about
more quietly than must, When 1 spoke
to her about anythutto•which Y did la a
kinder voice than I ordinarily used—she
would look into my lace with sn earnest
ness that rebuked me.
Toward evening I sent her awn stairs
for a pitcher of cool water. She want
quickly, and soon returned With a pitcher
of water and a tumbler on -a waiter.—
She was coming towards me, evident
ly riving more than ordinary caution, when
her foot tripped against something, and
she stumbled forward. It was in vain she
tried to save the pitcher. Its balance Was
lost, and it fell over and was broken to
pieces at my feet, the water dashing upon
the skirts of my dress.
The poor child becaciie instantly as pale
as ashes, and the frightened look she gave
me, I shall not soon forget. She tried , to
speak, and say it was an accident, but het
tongue was .parahzetlios the -nto f , • t 11;. And
she found no utterance. The lesson I had
received in the morning, served me for
purposes of self-control now, and I said in
stantly in a mild voice,
Never mind, Jane; I know you could
not help it. I must tack down the loose
edge of the carpet. I came near tripping
there myself today. Go and get a floor
cloth and wipe up the water as quickly as
you can, while I gather. up the broil=
pieces."
The color came back instantly to Jane's
face. She gave me one grateful look, and
then ran quickly away. to do as I bad di
rected
her. When she came back, she
blamed herself for not having been more
careful, expressed sorrow for the accident,
and promised over and over again that she
would be more guarded in future.
The contrast between both of our feel
ingv bow, and what they were In tias morn
ing was very great. I felt happier for
having acted justly and with due self-con

account of the accident, had not the extra

of the people, athended the rostrum, and
declared that Pius EX. should only return

applause of the Assembly 4 and soon after
the funeral bell of the Capitol, which tolli

the Romans and to the world the death of

streets were strewed in an instant with
fragments oleo busts of, Pius. IX. that the
Romans hurled 1144 their windows; and
it was stoat on that evening to
find a single portrait of the Pope for sale
in the shop windows. What a day of
glory it was for Rome - and - the - Romens,
and what a solemn moment for that Pope
who fell a victim of the cardinals' intrigue*
and of foreign diplomatist, ! In the eve•
fling, all the civic guards, and the different
bodies of troops, with priests and friars,
marched in company, celebrating, with
songs of joy.the end of the Popish sway.
The city of Rome wasilluntinsted ; the

joyftil tries of i the multitude, you would
have thought that Rome had been resto

her ancient splendor and glory." From
the "Piazza del Popolo"—the square of

capitol, amid criesof"Long life to the Con

he supposed, to be slain ; for the hill was
utterly bare, without a single hiding place,

JACOIEB LADDEIR
A welsh clergyman, invited to assist in
the ordination of a Minister in sums part
of England, was appointed to deliver the
address to the clinch and congregation;
and, having been informed that their pre.,
vious minister had suffered much front pe
cuniary embarrassment although the church
was fully able to support him comfortably,
took the following method of administer- .
ing reproof. In his address to the dhurelh
he remarked :
You have been praying, no doubt that.
God would send you a man slier his own
heart to be your pastor. You (lid
God, we hope, has heard your prayer, and
given you such a minister as he approves,
who will go in and out before you, and
feed your souls with the bread of
But now you hare preyed for a miniitdr,
and God has given you one to your, mind,
you have something more to do : you must
take care of him, and in order to his being
happy among you, you need to pray again."
Pray apiti ! pray again ! What
should we pray for ,
" Well, I think you have need to pray
ngnin."
" Pray flu' what?"
"Why I'll tell you. Pray that G ott
would put Jacob's ladder down again w
the earth."
uJacob's ladder ! What has iteiab's
ladder to do with our Minister?"
" Why, I think that if God would put
Jacob's ladder down that your miniutor
could go tip into [leaven every Sabbath'
evening, after preaching, and remain all ,
the week l then he could come downeytny
Sabbath morning so splritually.minded,
and so full of heaven, that he could preach
to you almost !ike an angel."
Oh ! yes, that may be very Well, and,
if It were possible, we should like.it ;
then we need our minister through the
week to attend prayer meetings, visit the
sick, hear experience, give advice, and
therefore must have him always with tis
we want the whole of his time and att4a4
t. That may be ; and I will admit the
daily necessity of his attention of your con
cerns ; but then you will remember that, if
he remain here ho must have bread and
cheese ; and I have been told that your
former minister was often wanting ahe
common necessities of life, while many of
you can enjoy its luxnries ; and therefore
I thought if God would put Jacob's ladder
down, your present minister might preach
to you on the Sabbath, and by going tip
heaven after the services of the day, save
you the painful necessity of supporting
