We were boyitogether,
And never can forest
The schoolhouse near the heather,
fir childhood where we met
The humble home to memory dear,
he sorrows and its joys ;
W here woke the transient smile or tear,
When you and I were buys.
We were youths together,
And miaow built in air,
Your heart warn lake a feather.
And mine weighed down with cure ;
To you came wealth with manhood's prim.
To me it brought alloys—
Foreehadowed in the primrose time,
When you and I were boys.
We're old men together--
The friends we loved of yore,
With,lesven of autumn weather,
Are gone for evermore .
How blest to age the impulse given,
The hope time ne'er destroys—
W hich led our thoughts from earth to heaven.
When you and I were boys !
A bKETCU FROiI REAL LIFE.
BY MRS. A. D. HUNT
"Dear me 1" said EUen Lincoln, a girl
of fourteen years, as she catered the par-
Ittr, where her mother was sitting; Brid
get tells MC that Miss Seymour is to come
in the morning and fit my silk ; 1-was re
ally in hopes you would never employ her
again."
"But why ?" said her mother, as she
looked up with a half serious expres
sion.
"Because she is an old maid; and you
know that I always detest them ; they are
forever talking or fretting about this or
that."
"That is of no consequence at all. I
am very sorry to hear my daughter speak
thus," repldsl Mrs. Lincoln, "and hope
that you will change your mind and feel
ings towards Miss Seymour, and all other
old maids, as yen term them, crc long.—
lint let us say no !wire about the dress; if
you will bring your work, and sit by my
aid'', l will relate to you a story of what hap
pened to one of my must intimate friends,
when in youth."
"Most gladly," said Ellen; "for I am al
ways pleased to listen to anything you
have to tell um,"
"It is now eighteen yearn," *grin Mrs,
Lincoln, as Ellen was fairly seated, "since
what I am about to tell you transpired.—
A t that time, near the homestead of my
father, lived a yuung and beautiful maiden.
Rut eighteen summers had passed over
her head, and yet she had passed through
many trying ACells3 of sorrow and
Vim by one she had followed two misters,
nu oily brother, and a loved father to the
grave ; so that at the time I have intro
duced her to you, she remained the only
child of a widowed and disconsolate
mot her.
From early childhood we had ever been
near :1101 cherished friends ; a tenfold
cord seemed to have knit our young affec
tions. We were as sisters, and every
thing seemed bereft of half its pleasures to
me, unless shared with my friend. In fact,
she was the favorite of all who knew her—
so gentle and so winning, that she ever
won the love and admiration of the
whole village school, where together we
went, baud iu band, for eight successive
years.
"But time passed away, and school days
were over, and we had grown to woman
hood ; yet so constantly were we together
then, that it %vs" the subject of remark if
one was seen without the other. At the
time your father commenced paying his
addresses to me, she was the affianced
bride of his only brother, Charles Lincoln.
This seemed to a. 1.1 much to our happi
ness, as we talked of the new and hap
py relationship that would he future be
"Mr. Linenln was preparing for the
ministry, and had nearly completed his
studies, and at the end of six mouths their
marriage was to take place. 0, how vi v.

scenes crowd upon my mind ! It seems
but yesterday. that 1 assisted in robbing
her of her bridal. She seemed so

down to enjoy a pleasant chat until they
should arrive. Minutes at length slowly
pailmed away, until they ended in an hour,
and still they came not. 'What can have

of my friend. ,

one seemed to notice our approach,
luntil Istepped up to him, and gently
laid my hand upon hie shoulder, when
in silence he pointed towards the parlor
door.
"1 tried, though in a feeble manner, to
support my. friends, as she entered the
room, #here lay shrouded in death the
loved and devoted Charles Lincoln. With
a trembling hand she removed the heavy
pall of black velvet that covered the noble
and manly form of her adored and betroth
ed husband. She gazed long upon the
sweet and placid feature of the being that
lay before her ; a beautiful smile seemed
ed to wreathe his lips in death, as if he
were about to speak and tell of the un
known felicity and joy that waits the tru
ly righteous.
"At length, stodping to imprint a kiss
upon his noble forehead, she exclaimed, in
anguish of spirit—
"'Oh death, thou halt indeed come
near me many times, and broken tie after
tie which bound me to earth 1 but thou
haat now accomplished thy fearful work,
taken all that the world held dour to me,
and inflicted a wound which time can nev
er heal.'
"The scene was too affecting for me to
behold, and I repaired to an adjoining
room, where I could, unmolested, give free
vent to my tears, and mourn over the sad
trials of my cherished and devoted friend.
"As soon as my emotious had subsided,
and I was sufficiently composed, I hasten
ed to inquire the particulars of so sudden
and unexpected an event. I was inform
ed by the domestic, that so violently had
he been seized after taking cold, that rea
son at once forsook its throne, and cturned
not again until a short interval before
death, when he was heard to call constant
ly upon the name of Helen, expressing a
great desire to see her, that he might breathe
forth his last blessing upon her.
I did not see Ellen again until she was
bending over him, taking the last linger
ing look, before he was consigned to the
grave. There were no tears in her eyes
then—no wringing of the hands to make
mauifest her grief; but the awful look of
intense agony that was depicted on her
countenance, caused mo indeed to shudder

this village where he had been called upon
but a few weeks before to settle as their
pastor and teacher. After the last sad
rites of the burial were performed over
our dear and departed friends, wo return
ed to our homes, sad and disconsolate in
deed
"A sad and fearful change had in that
short apse° of time been wrought in !Id
, len ; she seemed like a crushed flower, that
was about to wither away and die. The
trial seemed more than she could bear, and
she soon began to sink beneath the weight.
of her afflictions ; her health rapidly fail
' ed, and for many mont!is she was not able
to leave her room ; but being placed un
der the care of the most skillful physi
cian, and the undivided care and attention
of her mother, she at length recovered so
as to be able to go out.
"She expressed a wish to visit the grave
of Charles ; and early one morning iu
June her mother and myself accompanied
her there. I could not refrain from weep
log to see my friend, as she bent over that
hallowed spot, and with clasped hands, of
fered up a silent prayer to that Being in
whom she had learned to put all her trust.
Purified and chastened by the trials of this
life, she seemed more like an inhabitant
of eternity than a being of earth. Her
countenance seemed like that of a seraph,
so holy and angelic its expretision.
"After she had ended her prayer, she
set about to plant the beautiful flowers
she tied brought with her there, that they
might grow and shed their fragrance over
a spot so sacred and dear to her. I turn
ed away with a sad heart, as I thought
that beneath the cold clods of that earth,
lay the cherished idol of her soul's best
affection—that she bud also buried her
heart with him, crushed in all its hopes of
future happiness in life.
"As Melon's health improved, she be
gan to think of some way by which she
could obtain a useful employment, that
would enable her to support herself and
mother, for whose sake alone she wished
to live. A cousin of hers, then a dress
maker in the place, freely offered to learn
her, to which Helen gladly consented.
"A year after I was married, and I left
the heat* of my father to reside where I
now am. I will not dwell upon the sad
parting that took place between sue and
my friend. We promised to write often,
and ever bato ash other the same near and
dear friends.

which period I had several times visited
my parents, and spent many happy hours
in long and earnest conversation with my
early friend. Five yearesinoe, a widower

I , mce knew a lad of some twelve years,
who I fad acquired a kiln, of saying "I
can't,." whenever be ittut i ttkld or asked to
do awything. When at sZlimil he was 'al
ways bellied Isis class, and if reprimanded
by his teacher, his only excuse was. "Well,
Miss C., I can ' t learn it." kiss C.
thote?ht perhaps, she had assigned him too
long lessons, and afterwards gave shorter
ones, and still shorter, bet it was still the
diLLUC "I can't," as before; and she saw
that .unltess the habit was broken, it would
entirely prevent all progress in knowledge
and render him a burden to society. Ma
ay ex.pedienta were resorted to, but without
sumo :as. At length she resolved to .meet
him on his own ground; so one morning,
during the first exercis;t, which was read
ing in the New Testament, when it came
to hisiurn to read, Miss C. said Horace
might be excused, and the next one read.
Not long afterwards, he asked permission
to get his pencil. which had fallen from
his desk, and Miss C. replied, "I will get
it for you, I don't think you can pick it
up." At recess it was said that all could
have recess but Horace—it was presumed
he could not play. In the same manner
no was excused from all duties, much to
his own surpriie, and that of the whole
school. During the afternoon some one
ventured to ask, "Why may not Horace
recite with us r" and was only answered
"lie can't." A little before the closing
exercise, as the teacher was standing near
him, he looked up beseechingly in het
face, and said, "Miss C., are you going to
hear me recite any more lemons?" She'
replied, "I would like very mush to bear
you go on with tho classes t.f you. can but
you always tell me you can't, and if you
can't, I ought out to reqttire it of you."
Said he, "shall I comelo'echool tomor
row I" and was answered, "Yes,:if you
can." He buret into tears And:said, "I
will try to get my lessons, Miss C. The
point was, wised.: Tor twiny months,
while that teacher remained, his , lesions
were faithfully learned, and other :duties
promptly performed, and
,Without any "1
can't" to sadden the heart. Years after
wards she was gladdened by liewring that
he never lost the benefit 'of that day's dis
cipline. .
"Dear children, do not say "1 ean't,”
but rouse up all the energies et ,your
