ANGELS.
Thin shadowy forms are hovering
In the air around us spread ;
And we feel their hallowed presence,
In the daily paths we tread ;
Their soft eyes are kindly *listening
Down in many a golden brain ;
Theirs the hands that gently scatter
Heavenly roses on our dream.
Richest gems of thought they bring us
From their lair end distant horns,
Though they often make us sadder,
We arc better V 4 hen they come.
And they weave meet opens of music
O'i.r the troubled heart to glide,
AO uphold souls alnioat •inking
Down in Wee cold rapid tide.
They sustain, and cheer, and comfort,
Wheel our spirits fall and sink,
Bate us from the dark ahyases,
When we tremble on the brink;
Soft their chide, whep fiety paesiens
Would Our heel bOOMMI stir,
Angels sad auulleeply sorrow,
When our habitat' spirits err.
Low they speak In 'nothing whisper",
When in grief we bend and morn'
Anil they softly bear us message
From the tainted be ones gone.
They that still the fever hunting
In nor Bicken'd Weary hearts—
They unclasp the ehrystsl fountain
Whence the coaling tear-drop marks
They tint ',mid the costly plessurek
That ourdeeper spirits know,
And tune the crushed and bruised heerteittinge,
Thrilling with a amyl woe.
Of nor hrttsr thoughts they waken
All that pure, and high, and tray
They that prompt the kindly impulse
Of the little good we do.
Oh, they bring us daily visions
Of s world more pure stal fair.
While their sweet low voices whirler,
"God, and love, and home are there
They *hut keep a deathless vigil
At the portAhr albs 'mil—
They that tread the angry tempest s
When the wares of trouble roll.
Through the vale of gloomy shadows,
Safe our fainting souls they bear,
While their tuneful songs of Heaven
sooth us in our paiwaire there.
Oh ! how deli, how high, how precious,
We must he in God's pure sight,
That he sends u guprilim angels.
From his realms of holeless light.
NIGHT.
Night 1 The pulse of tha great city
lies still. The echo of burriing feet has
long since died away. The maiden dreams
of her lover ; the wife, of her absent hus
band ; the sick, of health ; the captive, of
Freedom. Softly falls the moonlight on
those quiet dwellings ; yet under those
roofs are hearts that are throbbing and
breaking with misery too hopeless for tears ;
forme bent before their time with crushing
f c,
sorrow;`tu lips that never s , save when
some mocking dream come render the
morrow's wakening tenfold re bitter.—
There on a mother's fuithf breast, calm 1
and beautiful, lies the holy brow of infan
cy. Oh ! could it but pas away thus !
ere the bow of promise haveceased to span
its future—ere that serenestuy be darken
ed with lowering clouds ; ire that loving'
heart shall feel the death pseg of despair.
There, too, sits Remorse, clothed in
purple and fine linen, "the worm that
never dioth," hid in its shining folds.—
There, the weary watcher by the couch of
pain, the dull ticking of the clock striking
to the heart a nameless terror. With
straining eye, itsifurs are counted ; with
nervous hand, .the draught that brings no
healing, is held to the pallid lip.
The measured tread of the watchman, as
he passes his round ; the distant rumble
of the coach ; perchance the disjointed
fragments of a song from bacchanalian lips,
alone breaks the solemn stillness. At
such an hour serious thoughts, like un
bidden guests, rush in. Life appears like
the dream it is ; Eternity, the waking ;
tied involuntarily, the most careless eye
looks up appealingly to Him by rhom the
hairs of our head are all nat*rid.
Blessed night I Wrap thy dark' mantle
round these weary earth pilgrims. Over
them all, the "Eye that never slutnbereth"
keepoth its tireless watch. Never Oho
tering sigh escapes a human breast unheard
by that pitying' ear. Never an unspoken
prayer for help that finds not its pitying re
sponse in the bosom of infinite Mercy.—
Mr*. Mary Denison.

"Oh ! Henry, dear don't go talking
about expenses ; your business is soigood,
it will warrant a little outlay, you told me
so yourself. Come, I will economise in
other things—just look now at these dingy
black closets." He half agreed with her
as she opened the really dismal place.—
"I shouldn't wonder if they were filled
with vats and vermin. Now let's go up
stairs; see how the paper is torn offend
patched—and worse and more of it,
there is but one upright chamber in the
house. Mother's last words to me were,
do get upright chambers, for they look so
pretty when they are well furnished. And
here in front of the house is a wretched
great hole—"
"But in the summer," put in Henry.
"Oh ! 1 know what you would say. I
suppose there is water there sometimes;
but half of the year it will he a most detes

a house very damp and uncomfortable—
no, I'm sure you wont try to make me
live in such a place, after all the com

Henry resigned the key, one half con.:
winced by his wife's reasoning. He loved
her, and wanted to make her happy ; but
just starting in iife, bow was he to main
tain style and extravagance T He liked
the little cottage, but was persuaded a•
gainst his better judg4ent to refuse it.
About an hour after, a plain carriage
drove up, and a sprightly young wan lifted
a sweet, blue-eyed girl to the ground, say
ing as be did so, "Now prepare to be dis

"I am not in the least with the ezterior."
