There are countless field, the green earth o'er,
Where the verdant turf has been dyed with gore
Where hostile rawks, in their grim array,
With the hattie's smoke has obscured tim day,
Where hate was stnfoped on each rigid face;
As foe met foe in the death embrace;
Where the groats of the wounded and dying rose'
Till the heart of the listener with horror froze;
And the wide expanse at crimsoned plain
Was pile] with heaps of uncounted
slain—
But n fiercer combat, a deadlier strife,
Is that which is waged in the Battle of Life.
The hero that wars on the tented field,
With his shining sword and his burnished shield,
flees not alone with his falibfal band:—
Friends and comrades around him stand,
The trumpets sound and the war steeds neigh—
To join In the shoe of the coml.:lg tray; .
And he flies to e onset, he charges the foe,
IVliere the b meets gleam and the red tides flow,
And he bear his part In that conflict•dire
‘Vith an arm all nerve and a heart all fire.
What though lie relit At the battle's close
In the flush of Oil victory won, 112„gocia
Willi martial music— and waving plume—
From a field of tittle— toil laureled Minh
But file hero tpat wars in the Battle of Life
Most stand alone in the fearful strife ; '
Aloneln his weakness or strength must go,
Hero or coward To MOO the foe:
Ire mak:not fly ; oil that fated field
Ile moot o in or lose, he must conquer or yield.
lVarriny—who - cont'st In this battle naw,.. • -
M ith a careless step anti a thoughtless brow; .
As If the day were already won—
Pause. and gird all thy armor on !
Dont thou bring with thee hither a dauntless will—
An ardent heat t that no fear con chili—
Thy shield of faith haat thou Wed and primed—
Canst thou say to the monntain "he thou removed"—
Et thy land does the sword cr troih flame bright—
Is Illy banner inscribed —"For God and the right"—
'
In the might of prayer dont thou wrestle and plead .1
Never had warrior greater need
- Unseen foes in thy pathway hide.
Thou art encompassed en every side;
There Eleasure waits illfhlfer Siren train; -
Her poison flowers and her hidden chain;
Flattery courts with her hollow voiles, •
Passiou with silyery tone beguiles,
Love Mill Friendship their charmed spells weave ,
Trust not ton deeply they may deceive!
Hope with her Dead Sea fruits is there;
Sin is spreading her glided snare; • --,
Disgase with a ruthless handlimuld erotic, - s
And Care spread o'er thee her withering blight;
lime and Enyy, with a 'hinge black,
And the serpent- Slander, are nn 11w track . ;
Falsehood and Guilt, Remorse and Pride, .
Doubt and Despair In thy pathway glide,
Haggard Want in her demon Joy,
Waits to degrade thee sail then destroy,
And Death. the insatiate Is horerthrtiear
To snatch from thy graip nil time boldest dears
In war with these phantoms Ihnigird the round, ,
No limbs dissevered may strew the ground,—
No blood may flow, rind no mortal ear
The groans of the wounded heart Inv hear,
As It struggles and writhes in their dread control,
As the iron enters the riven soul.
lint the youthful form grows wasted and walk,
And 5%161(011 and wants the rounded cheek,
The brow is furrowed, but not with years,
The eye is dimmed with Its secret tears,
And sirortkeil with white is the rni:en heir;
These arc the tokens of conflict there. t.
The battle is ended ; the hero goes
Worn and scarred'to his hint repose.
lie has won the dpy he conquered doom,
Ile has sunk unknown to his nameless tomb,
For the victor's glory no voice timy plead .
Fame has no echo, and earl!. no theed.
But the guardian angels ate hovering near,
They have watched upen o'er the Conflict here,
They bear hum now on their wings away,
.'t'o n realm of pence, to a cloudless day,
Ended now is earthly strife, •
And his brow is crowned with the Crown at Life !

'Now got up l' said ferry, 'or I'll learn you
to be crying about all day for nothing'
The tears retie afresh down the cheeks
of ici. Gtrltridge; F sighed heavily wish°
raised the child from th nor, and dented
him on a bench on the opposito_side _of the .
room.
'What is Bob crying about?' said Jerry
fretfully. ',
''Why, Mr. Guttridge,' said his wife,
upon the bench beside the tittle boy, and
-wiping her, tears with her apron, 'the poor
child has been eying lor a piece of bread
these two lie's ate nothing to•clay
but one potatee, and [ spose the poor thing
is ball starved.'
'At this moment their neighbor, Mr. Nat

field that, afternoon, rind knowing. that Jerty
was doing gpthing, while his family were .
starving, he thought he would endeavor to
get him to }yolk for hint,, and pay him in'
proviSions.
Jerry seated himself rather suddenly on a
broken-hat;lted chair, the only sound one in
the house,being; occupied by Mr. Friar, to
wards whom he cast sundry gruff lookiKuid
surly glances. He said not a word; and the
first address of Mr. Friar was to little'Bobby.
'What's•the matter with-little Bohby?' said
he, in a gentle tone, come, my little fellow;_
come here and tell me what's the matter.,
To, Jun, Bobby; go mid see Mr. Friay
said the mother, slightly pushing him .tor- .
ward with her hand.
The boy, With one finger in his mouth,
and the tears still rolling over his dirty
face, edged along sideways up to Mr. Friar
who took him up in his lap, and asked him
again what was the matter.
'I want a piece of bread,' said Bobby. .
'And won't your mother give you some ?'
said- Mr. Frier, tenderly. '
'She !isn't got none,' replied Bobby; !nor
tutors, too.' - . The worthy, fernier 4.pew titer s _
were entirely out of provisions again, and he
forebore to ask any further questions, but
told Bobby it he would go over to his house
he would give him something to eat. Then
Inkling to Jerry, said he , Neirthb)r Guth idge,
I've got four tons of IMy down, that needs
to go in this afternoon, for-it looks a , s if we
should have raw. tomorrow, and I've come
over to see ill get you. to go and help

me to get it in, I'll give you it bushel of

of potatoes, and two pounds of pork.

else to do.'
'Do, pray go, Mr. Guttridge P said his wife
with a beleeching look, 'for you are only go

that won't do no good; you'll only spend all
the afternoon for nothing, acid then - we„shall

end its no business to you nor nobody else ;
and it you're too lazy to getuour nivn sup
per, you may go without it; that's all I have
to say about it.'
With that lie aimed. for the door, When
Mr. Frier addressed him as.follows:—
'Now I must say, neighbor Guttridge, if
you are going to spend. the afternocin over at
the shop, to' ride, horse; for them Jockeys,

Mr. Friers benevolent feelings had be.

wife about what could be done forth! Gut.

he took his hat and *allied is without cere•

Jerry dropped his head,

' The constablee having been directed by
the court to proceed forthwith to exeeutd the
sentence they led , btm out into the yard, put
hit - ems - round the whipping-post, and tied

resistance ; but when they commented tying
his hands round the post, he' began to cry.
and beg; • and promised better Ashions,. it
they would only let him go this time.
But the constables told him that it was too
late now, that the sentence of the court had
been passed, and • the pentshment most De
inflicted. The whole throng of spectators
had issued Loin the court-house, and stood
round in a large ring to see the sentence en
forced. The judge himself had Stepped ton
side window which commanded a view of
the yard, and stood peeling solemnly through
Iria - spebtaiTatithat the ceremony was
- duly performed.
All things being in readiness, the stouter
.constable took the cat-o'-nine-talls and.
brought them heavily act o 4 the naked back

and screamed se that he might have been
heard well nigh a mile. When the liii-enty
blows were counted, and the coremoniAvas,

made for home as last as possible.
Mrs. (inttridge met him at the door with
a kind, piteous look, and asked him if they
lout hurl trim; He made her tie reply, but
pushed along into the house. There he
found the table set, and •well Supplied for
dinner ; tor Airs. Guttridue, partly through
the kindness of Mr. Frier, unit partly from
her own exertions, bad Managed to 'piek up
something' thalserved to make quite a corn,
lortable meal. Jerry ate his dinner in silence
but his wife thought ho manifested more
tenderness and less selfishness than she had
known him io . exliibit for several years ; for
instead of aprOopriating the most and the
best of the food to himself, ho several times •
placed lair proportions ol;'it upon the plates

The next morning, before the sun had
dried the dew from the grass, whoever

might have beheld Jerry Gunridge busily at .
work, shaking out the wet hay to the sun;
and for* month afterwards, the passerby
might have seen him early and late, inhat

industry. •
A change soon became visible in the con
