THE AGE OF IRREVERENCE.

You might have won the poet's name—

And gained a laurel for your brow,
Of sounder leaf than} con claim.
But you have mode the wiser choice—
A lire that 1110V01 to gracious ends
Through troops or mar:cording friends—
A &eget lite, a Silent voice;
And you have missed the irreverent doom
' Of those that wear theitoct'r crown ;

Shull hold their orgies at yotir tomb. •

But round him ore he scarce be cold

" Give out the faults he ,would not shim t
Break lock and aeon betray the trust t
Keep nothing sacred. 'tls'but just
The tuany.headed beast should know."
Ah, shameless: for lie did but sing
A _song that plepeud . us from Its worth ;

And drops at glory's temple-gates ;

Sleep, saintly poor one 1 sleep, sleep on: ,
And, waking find thy labors dons.—C. LAMB
ONCE upon a time there lived in.a far oft
country place, the name of which has long
since passed' into oblivion, a young
whom we shall call Alice, with an ag6l mo
ther dependent upon,her eiverlions kir their
sole support. And although at all periods
they fared hardily enough, and sometimes
even wanted for bread, Alice nevetsuffered
herself to be cast•down, placing her whole
trust in Him who 'tempers the -wind to' the
shorn lamb.' And when better days Came
again, who so glad And tharik sat young,
girl !' •
It may—be alt very pretty 'and picturesque
for poets and artist to Joicture to themselves
calm and peacelfittedenes of rural loveliness,
in the foreground of which_ they generally
place some happy village maid, sitting in the
cottage porch at the kunateliour, and singing
merrily at her wheel; oven as bright eyed
and glad-hearted . damsels of our own times
take up their sewing only as a pleasant ex
cuse tone silent and alone, that tliFty may
indulge in sweet and gentle musings. Rut
let us not forget that that which is pasiime to
the few rriay he to the many a Weary and
never-ending toil, engrossing the day which
seems so, long and yet is not hall long
enough for all they have to do—breaking in
,to.the quiet hours set apart by nature for rest;
andtrikngled even with their troubled.dreams.t
nub it was oftentimes with our poor hero
ine And yet she sang, too, but generally
hyrr.usi for such sprang most readilytto her,
lips, and seemed most in harmony' with her
lonely life; while her aged mother would lay ;
for hOurs listening to what seemed to her as
a gush of sweet pra.yeflol mum, and not.
questioning but the song of the good' upon
earth might be heard and echoed by the an
gels in heaven ! . '
For years Alice had contrived to lay by
enough to pay the rent of their little voltage
against the time when it shoul'd become flue;
but now either from the widow's illness, or
the hardness of the times, which ever press
es in seasons of national or commercial dif
ficulty, most heavily upon those least able
to struggle against its additional weight, the
'ay game round and lound her unprepared.
It so happened the old landlord wag dead,
and hisluccessor who was one of those stern
men who, without being actually hard heart.
ed, have a peculiar creed of their own with
regard to the .poor, which they are never
weary of repealing, holding poverty to be but
another name for idleness or even crime !
A baneful error, which has done much to
plunge its unhappy victims into their present
fallen condition; and yet even he was touqh
ed by her tears and meek, deprecating words,
and consented to give her one week's grace,
invbich.time she reckoned to have finished
anfisot pitid for the work she then had in the
hous3. 'And, although the gill, knew that'. in
order to effect this, she , must wofisllay and,

and -Alice, flinging open the casement felt
refreshed by the cant breeze and gladdened
by the huniming of the birds, already up and
at their orisons; or exchanged a Jnd of good
morning-with the peasants going forth to thei r
early labor. No wonder, that those rough,
untutored' men - , gazing - up - wards on' her - pale,
calm face, and listening to her gentle tones,
felt a kind of auperstitious reverence in ` their

a thought paler than usual; and fOr all the_
bright smile that met her-eyee every time A
lice—feeling cunscious of her gaze—looked
up from her. work, marked how weatily the
heavy eyelids drooped over the aching eyes.
and yet she novel creamed of the deception
which had been practised, in love, to soothe
and allay her fond anxiety; and the girl was
wall content that it should be so.
It so happened that about noon, as' she sat
spinning in the cottage porch, the new land-
lord passed that'way on horseback, and was
struck with her wearied looks; for of late
she had toiled even beyond her strength, and
this additional latigue was almost too much
o for her. But still that stern man said within
himself, 'lt is ever, so with the poor, they
work hard'when obliged to do so, and it is a
just punishment for, their improvidence and
idleness at other tbirkr 'And yet,' he ad

and ake arose at length and walked noise

opening the casement, sat by it to catch the
.coolibteath_ofinight up_cm her fevered btuW,_
and watch the my'riailid stFslooking down,
in their calm and silent beauty' upon the
,earth.
How naturally prayer comes at such times
as these. Alice clasped her faded hands in-

h lier wisdom knew that she Was Init a itteak
and erring creature alter all, and . took cour
age only from remembering that there is one
who careth for the. very flowers of the field,
and how much more for the children of the
earth. But gradually as she sat thus in the •
pale starLght,_the_white-lids. Alropped_over_
the heavy eyes—her hands unclasped and
sank silently and slowly down—the weary
nd-toil-wereArairiCAnd--fotin&restavlasti --
And then the room seemed filled on a
sudden with a strange blighinessofind where
poor Alice had sat first-as hei wheel is an

the still air. Fist and noiselessly ply these
holy ones at their love task, while the whiz

gentle tushing sound, as of wings, alone die
tubed the' profound silence of ihat - litile
chamber. And now morning broke again
over the earth, and their mission performed,
they have sped away to their bright home
rejoicingly. "
Alice awoke trembling froM her ilong and
refreshing dandier, thinking how she must
-. 1.4i1{ doubly hard to redeem those lost hours.
She drew her wheel lovvards her—she look
ed wildly at it, rubbed her eyes to be sure
gazed around the quierripartment where all
remained just as she had left it; but the task,
the heavy task, for which she had marked
out feur more wear); days and nights of toil,
and feared even then nothavrng'time enough
to complete it, lay ready 'finished before
her! Bat after a little time, the girl ceasing
to wonder,..or aemerribering to 'whom she
had prayed on the previous night, Aided by
an unerring instinct, knelt down and poured
out her henrt in a gush of 'prayerful thanks
giving to heaven? And we can almost fan
cy the angels iittriding away off, smiling
upon each other and on her, even as they,
had done before, and rejoicing in their own
work.
We are told, in the legend, that from that
hour the widow and her good and piouschild
never know want again. It may be that Al
ice's
employer was pleased with her dili
gence & punctuality ; or the landlord shamed
out of his prejudices by the unlooked for ap
pearance of the glowing and happy face of
his youthful tenant, three days befere the
appointed time, with the money-ready, and.
grateful thanks beside, for what she: - termed
•his kindness in, waiting so long for it—or ,
there was a charm in that web, woven. by
holy hands, which brought Alice many more
Juke with better paymelit and more time to
complete them in. The only thing-that
makes us sad in this simple and beaufilul
legend is, that the 'age , of such miracles
should have passed away. And yet, fear
not, ye poor and suffering children of toil
only be gentle and pure-hearted as that
young girl—trust as she fruated—pray as she
prayed—and' sure that-Heaven, in its own
good-time, will-deliver you.

that she might be enabled to give him a

Of a certain' Ilivine an anecdote is told,

JACOB'S LADDER
A Welsh clergyman, invited to assist in the
ordination of a minister in sorrie"part of Eng
land, was appointed to deliver the address to
the church and congregation ; and, having
been informed, that their proviop.minister
suffered much from pecuniary einharrass-
Arnentralthough-the-church-warrfully-ablelo
support him comfortably, took the follozieg
method of administering reproof. In hilt ad
dress to the.churoh, he remarked:
'You have been praying no doubt, that
God would send you a man after his own
heart to be your' pastor. You did 'weft— •
God, we hope, has heard your prayer, and
given you such a good minister as he ap
proves, who will go in-and out before you,
and feed your souls with the bread of life. -
But now you have prayed fora minister, and
Gorillas given your mind, yoR liave some
thingmoie to do; you must takd care of him,
- and in order to - his being happy - among - you,
you need to pray again.'
