Alike their features and tlKirrolyes of white;
But one was crowned with amaranth, as With

Then said I. with deep fear! and doubt
oppressed,
Beat not so loud. my heart, lest thou bettay
The place where thy belored are at rest!
And he who wore the crown of asphodels;
Descending at mr• door, began,to knock,
And my son! sank within we, as - in wells,
The waters sink befure an earthquake's
shock.
I recognised the nameless agony,

And now returned with three-fold strength

Then with a smile that filled the' house With

A MOTILIEWS DREAM.
The morning was full of trouble. The
cook had just left, and dinner was to be
prepared ; the workmen, who were lavire ,
the gas pipes, had tilled the house with
dust ; Charley was imperioieslv demanding
the accustomed aid in his French lesson;
Frank had cut his finger, and lost his cap ;
Mary, in her fear lest she should be late
at school, had upset her bottle of ink over
her blue muslin dress, and little Alice,
the baby, who-liad been ill all night. was
moaning sadly in the little erdle. A
woman of clear head and strung nerves
might well be perplexed by these demands
upon her time..
Poor 14.1.r5. Arnold I she had been kept'
awake through the night by. her child'si
illness, ó ti i it was Very difficult, when her,
aching head so needed quiet and rest, to I
find the patience and strength which the!
day's .dutz s es and 'trials . required. • Iles
brow was Clouded. and her tones were not
v e ry gentle. as she hastily pointed out the!
errers.in Chariey's exercise, and bound
Frank's bleeding finger, while a li s tener,

" Charley, you are strangely care-,

Fradk, you are not fit to be trusted with

muslin I. quite spoiled. I will come soon;
'Catharine, and see what can be done for
dinner. Do run to grandmother's room
now, and see if she needs anything. She
has been alone since breakfast.
At last, the three children started for
school, and after giving Catharine some
directions concerning the' dinner, and
making a hurried visit to the aged Grand-,
mother, whom a painful disease had rend
ered almost helpless, she sat on a loiv couch
by the cradle of the sick child, in the dis
orderly room, and with a deep .. Sigh .ex
; claimed, What is the use3of living.? No

of duties—the same continually-recurrinffl

moved obstacles.
On this day of misfOrtnnes, the house!
came into some degree of order; little Al
ice was quiet and was sweetly sleeping,
31rs. Arnold's aching head was bathed,
and her dust stained morning dress. was'
exchanged fora fresh white dressing-gown.
and th'en she lay down on the couch by
the cradle-Side, to rest. On a table CY
the open-window were pots of roses and
heliotrope, in full blossom, which her hus
band, always _remembering her love of
dowers, had brought to her on his return
the previous evening. Through the win
doW came the songs of 'the birds, rejoic
ing iu the bright. June light, after succes
sive days of clouds and rain. The maples
that shadowed the house- waved their
branches and their deep-gacen leaves in
the fresh breeze, and through the openings
she caught glimpse's. of the clear blue sky
beyond. A sweet- smile rested on the
sleeping baby's face. Dust and noise and
pressing- duti..6 were forgotten. Maples
!iinel blue skies, white roses, baiw fares,
land the song;s of birds, mingled in pleas
ant CqT!tllslo;l._ She slept, and the weary
head forL:ot
[ Iu her sleep, .sl: was far above. the
earth—its toils, us weariness, it; discords,
and its sorrows. While she was looking
'downward, watching the countless firms,
the busy life, the eager running to and fro,
her attention wits arrested by a wounin
robed in white, who, apart from the. crowd.
was walking in a-narrow path,-which-led
through .gi=een, fertile valleys, alani , the
she reipfpdageful lakes 'ovt.trt row bridges
'which were stretched across deep preci
pices, through deep shadowy iotiOs.,
.up
rough hill-s - ides, and across mountain 0;;-
ses, till it terminated, far beyond the yis
i ion of those who'wcrc walking in it, in a
country of exceeding beauty, such as [nor
-1:tal eye has never seen: - •
There were many in the pathway.. Some
were loitering, by the wayside, sonic rest
ing in beautuni places. with folded arms,
so.ne pausing at the foot of the Inotintai it.,
andothers 'pressing earnestly onward. Tha
little c, ,, roup who surrounded tl.c wxlmn
were goitag, onward. There were iotle
children, who clustered closely amuud
her, and sought .her hand to k-ad them, a
few very aged men and women, and some
weary-looking, travel-stained men. over
all of whom she seemed to exert a marvel
ous influence. When the hen became
oppressive, she paused in the pleasant
valleys, and brraight cool water from the
wayside spring, and sw . :•et. refreshing ber
ries, to strengthen the travellers ; and
gathered fraHrant fioweri. and bore them
with her through the desert places where
there was no outward pleasantness. When
the sun went;,down in a flood of golden
light, or when its first mottling radiance
„gave a glory to every object, her faCe
beamed with 'a new light, and she called
the others to•watch the ever new beauty.
; ID the roughest places, as in the smooth
; est. shepointed some pleasantnes:= and
,
beauty; min the little children learned from
I her to see the changing wonders as they
passed along.
w When thelittle ones e -..re wcaryand their
.
roiees•sad. slie,did not hasten onward
mindful of their cries. but sat patiently
by the way-side, and bathed the aching
I little feet with cool water, and parted with
light touch the tangled curls from their
heated brows; and sang sweet songs to
soothe them; and as she sang, the old
men and Women listened, as if they too
were soothed and strengthened by the
!sweet sounds.
Then she went bar way, bearing the
yotingest 'of the bard, folded in her arms ;
and her step 'was lighter and 'her face
.wore a sweeter serenity, as she thus help
ed others.
Once, a little child, the fairest of the
group, fell in the pathway, and no effortl
could rouse it, Then the_ all pauseitand
drew closely around, and the•white-robed
woman covered bet faceand wept. While
she was weeping, down through the air,
from the bright country at the journey's
end, came a light form,. with a face of
heavenly radiance. She took the little
one who had fallen by the road-side,, and
with a look of ineffable love folded it in
her arms, while she cast a look of tender
compassion upon those who .were stand
ing so wino-41'0y there. Thou she bate
the little child away, up the hill-sides,
over the dangerous passes and the hot
! satuis, beautiful country fbe
Journey's end. -:•••• ' •.!
The white-robed woman sat a longtime.
weeping, when she knew - the child bud
gone; then, with a prayer fur strenthi an
sj exp . ret-sion ofboly mist mingled With 'the
lsadness that rested on her face, and 'with
tender care for the remaining, little ones,
;and - wordi of &heel' fur the - others, lie
went onward.
A low cry from the cradle awakened,
thesieeper. he vision disappeared nod
her own narrow path of duty Stretched
before her, lending, as the dream-path led,
through . light and darltneSs, throughjOy
and sorrow, over rough places and sinooth,
to the heavetily- cotintry. Had no
helpless ones to lead. no weary; ones to
strengthen ? Were there no flower's of
love and trust, no goltku fruit by the way
side, for her to gather? Were there no
eyes which ,slie had. power to open" tolthe
beauties which a Father's hand icat
tered along-the way ?
To the question slieliad blindly asked;
" What is the use of living'?" her heart
made answer. good -and" true, and -the
strem , theto.d beta earnestly resolved that
in all the future, her better, truer life,
should be the answer.
With a calm, happy smile, acid a quiet,
tenderness of manner,. site welcomed her
husband and children when they 4eturiied,
and a happier 'grotip had seldom assent- 1

it, that a heart ut peace withitSelf, and
filled with an unselfish love for others,
