forms a pleasing contrast with the littl?; des- -

Virgin bane one night to this hillock to pray,, —
'and was discovered kneeling, there by the
creiruf . a vessel that was coming to anchor
near the place. They laughed at her piety,.
and made some merry and unbecoming re

arose and destroyed the ship and 11Ur crew.
,Sinco that time no vessel has been known to

SACRIFICE ,
"There, Mary—now don't you think I do
servo to be, called a, pretty good husband ?"
latighed the young man as he dropped down
in the lady's palm half a dozen gold pieces.
" Yes, you arerEdward, the, vp .. rj , best hus
band in the world," and Vlienifted up-her
sweet face beaming with smiles, as a Juno
day With sunshine. '
"Thank you, thank you, for the very flat
tering words. And . now, dear, I want you to
have the cloak by next Christmas. I'm anx
ious to see how you will look ill it."
" But, Edward," gazing seriously at the
shining pieces in her rosy palm, "you kpow
we are not rich people, and it really seems
a piece of extravagance for inc to give thirty
dollars for ll:velvet cloak."
•, No, it is not, either. You deserve the
cloak, Mary; and I've set my mind upon your
having it. Then, it'll last you so many years,
that it will be more 'ecommical iu the end
than a less expensive article."
It was evident that the lady was predisposed
to conviction. She made no further attempt
to refute her husband's nrgumehiti r and her
small lingers closed over the gold pieces, as
she rose up, saying, "well, dear, the supper
,has been waiting half an hour, and I knew
you must•be.,lningry."
Ed . Ward and Mary Clark were the husband
and wife of p. year. He was a book keeper in
a lnige establishment, with n salary of fifteen
hundred dollars. Ills fair young wife made -
n little earthly paradise, of his cottage home'
in the suburbs of, the city, for within its walls
dwelt two lives that were - pet like music to
poetry, keeping litho to each other., And •
here dwelt, also, that peace which 'God giveth,
ta,thoso who love him.

Mrs. Clark cahie4nqtliciltling-rooni sud
denly, and the girl lifted Tier head, and then
turned it away quickly, but not until the first
glance told the lady that the fair face' was
swollen and stained with tears.
Janet Bill was. a young seamstress whom
11rs. Clark had occasionally employed for tlfo
last six months. She was always miracle('
by her young bright face, her modest yet dig•
sited manners,' and now the lady sew at once
that. some great sorrow had smitten the girl.
Obeying the promptings of a warm kaput-
SIV6 heart, she went to her and laid her baud
on her arm, saying softly, " Weft you tell
mo what troubling you, Janet?"

effort which she made to speak.
"Ilut perhaps I con. At any rate, you

And so :with kind words_ and half caressing

"Abont thirty dollars. I haven't so much

her. blue eye fixed in deep meditation. At

tones comforted the sad heart of the 'seam
stress.
. The lady went up stairs and took the pieces
'out . of her ivory port nun nude.. There was a
brigfsharp struggle in her mind. “Somehow
I've set my heart on this velvet cloalc,' , she
thought, •. and Edward will be disappointed,
I was .going.to select the velvet this very af
ternoon. But thee, there's that dying hay'
lying there with strange faces all about him;

Amhslie dosed the port-mounaie resolutely,
and went dowtralnirs.
,
"Janet, put up yoor work tins moment
thre is no time to. be lost. Here is the money.
Take it And go to'your brother." s .
The girl lifted up her eyes a moment, 'al
most in bewilderment, to the lady, and then,
Its she comprehended • the truth, the cry of
such joy broke from her lips, that its memory'
never faded *froln the
,heart through all the
after years of Mrs. Clark's life.
" George ! Georg The words leaped
from her lips, as the t'ister spranglorWard

How Janet's heart leaped at. the blessed
words! That very morning she had an in

had been careless, but - uot intentionally un

as She lifted her finger with a smiling warn

"There's something for you, Mary. It
came by express ibis afternoon ;" he said the
words in an undertone, placing email packet
in'her lap.
The lady opened the packet with eyes filled
with wonder, White her husband leaned over
her shoulders and watched her movemeins.
A white box disclosed itself, and removing
the cover, Mrs. Clark descried a small 'ele

at th - cclose - of divine service In Some' sin all
country church, there takes place the 'gentle
Stir and preparation for a boldistu , sodden
air of cheerfulness spreads over the whole
congregation, and the more solemn expression
of countenances fade away ; and it is at once
fell that a rite is to be perforated; whidh, al
though of a solemn and awful-kind, is yet eon-
Heeled with a thousand delightful associations
of purity; beauty and innocence. Then -there
is atf eager bending of striilinpfaces over the
humble galleries—fin uncontolous rising-up in•
affectionate curiosity - and 4 slight Murmuring
sounddu wide - 11 - no violation of the. Sabbath's
sanctity of God's house is'hert7d, when in the
middle of the intssage of the church, The party
of women are seen, matrons nod maids, who
bear in their bosoms, or in ; i'heieliritts, the
helpless beings abouttobe made members of
the Christian Communion.
There Hit, all dressed•becomingly in
the fond soh happy baptismal group. The
babes have all been entrusted for a precious
hour to the bosoms of young Maidens, who
tenderly fold them to their yearning hearts,
and, with endearments taught by nature, are
stilling, not alwayii successfdlly, their
rive cries. Then the proud anti delighted girls
rise up, one after the other, in sight •of the
whole congregation, and give up the infants,
arrayed in neat caps nail long flowing linen,
into their farlan's hands: For the poorest of
the poor, if lie has a heart it all, will have
his infaut.well dressed on such a (lay as this,
even although if should scant his steals for
weeks to come, and force him to spar'e fuel to
Iris winter frre.
And now the fathers are all Mending below
the, pulpit, with grave and thoughtful fithes.
Each has tenderly taken his infant into his
toil-hardened handS, and supports it in gentle
and tltemlfast affection. They are ell the chi!
dren of povert3', and if they live, are destined
to a life of toil. But now poverty pfits.on its
most pleasant aspect, for it is beheld 'standing
before the altar or.religioo with contentment
and faith., This is a time when the betteina
ture of man must rise up within - tint; and when
he must feel, more especially' that he is a
spiritual and immortal being, making covenant
'with God. lie is about to take upon himself
holy charge ; to promise to look after the
child's itumortal soul; and to keep his little
feet from the piths of evil, and in those of
innocence add peace. Such a thought ele
vates the lowest mind above itself—diffuses
additional tenderness over the domestic reld
flouts, and mikes them, who' sold up their in
fitnts to the. baptismal font, better bustninds,
fathers, and SODS, hut' the deeper' insight
which tliCy then possess in their own nature
and their life.
The minister consecrates the water, and as
it falls on 'his inf'ant's face, the father feels
the groat oath - in his As the poor,- help

each child into the arms of the smiling maiden
from whom he had received it, he again takes
his place for advice and admonition befoiellm

the perfect beauty of that religion of whom
the Divine founder said—." Suitor little .chil

The rite of baptism had not been thus per
forined, 'for several months, in the Kirk • of
Lanark. It

children about to be baptized. Tho congre

served it; , for thpro are a hundred sun-dials
among the hills, woods, moors, and fields, and
the shepherd or the peasant can see the hours
passing by them in . the sunshine end in .the
shadow.
The <dwelt in Which they were 'assembled
was hewn by God's hand, out of the eternal
rocks. A river rolled its way tikrough,n Mighty
chasm of cliffs, several hunolnd feet high, of
which the One aids presented enormous mite
