And natloas moving into manhood new
Through wtsoota and authentic civil change
-0 soul-expansive creed I 0 faith to Stir
The individual breast which hopes divine,
And breathe forgetfulness of private wrong!
But when I ask myself what these have done,
What failed to do, I felt as if an air,
Steady and chill, from some waste wilderness,
Swept cold across the chambers of my heart;
For through the heavy multitudinous roll,
Heard underneath the noises of the hour
From Life's dark hollows,,as I thought, a cry
Untice. ed, inarticulate, went up,
Which forcibly found words within my
breast:—
Sti:l we suffer Wrongs untold,
robbed of pence and joy and health,
Slowly slain., both young and
Fur the rich man's greed of wealth.
How long shall our hearths lie cold ?
How long shall our lives be soil?
Rise, ye men or nobler mould,
Say it shall not be forever!
Vainly doth the poor man groan,
Vainly cloth he speak his grief.
"Work on, till thy days be flown ;-
Seek not, save in death, relief!"
It is t ms they moik his moan,
While they take from him his own,
Leaving him the grave alone.

Not to the selfishness of social war,
State agitations, and the building up
A Babel of unripe democracies ;
But in the charity of man to man;
In the acknowledgment of blood
Drawn from a common Father; in the sense
Of Christ's desert wherein we all are rich,
And of our own wherein we all are poor.
This is that touch of nature which will make

MISCELLANY.
Two women—a mother and daughter
—together in a small room, meagerly
furnished. They had on mourning gar
ments; but the gloom of their habiliments
was nut deeper than the gloom on their
Eces.
" Want are we to do, Alice ?'' said the
mother, bred:lug, in upon a long silence.
"If we, were only back again to dear
Westtrook," fell lough:10Y from the
daughter's lips.
" Yes, if--but :Westbrook lies more
than a thousaud miles distant. It was
a sad day for us my child, when we left
there. We have had nothing since but
trouble and sorrow."
Tears flowed silently over the mother's
face.
" If I could only get something to do,"
said Alice, " how willingly would I
work ? Thit no one wants the service
here that I can give.
" We shell starve, at this rate," spoke
out the mother, in wild kind of a way, as
if fear had grown suddenly desperate.
Alice did not reply, but sat very still,
in an abstracted way, like one whose
thoughts have grown weary in some fruit
less effort.
"I dreamed last night," she said look•
ing up, that we were back iu Westbrook,
and in our old home. That dear old
home ! low plain I saw everything ?
I sat at the vindow looking cut upon the
little garden in front, from which the air
came in filled with the odor of flowers,
and as I sat there, Mr. Fleetwood came
by, just as it used to be; and he stopped
and said, " Good morning, Alice,' in that
kind way in which he always spoke to
me. I cried, when I awoke, to find it
was only a dream."
" Alt, if there was a Mr. Fleetwood
here !" sighed the mother.
" Suppose you write to him," sug
gested Alice, "the thought comes this
moment into my Mind: I am sure he
would help us. You know what an ex
cellent man he is
"it will, this very day," replied the
mother, with hope and confidence in her
voice. Isn't it strange that he was not
thought of before? Seine good spirit
gave you the dream, Alice."
And the letter was written.
Let us follow this letter to Westbrook,
and note the manner in, which it is re
ceived. We find it in the hands of Mr.
Fleetwood, who his mad it through, aed

is sittibe with avoubled look in his face.
"There is no help in me," he said 'at
length, folding up the letter and 'eying
it aside. " Poor Mrs. I‘laynard ? Is the
day indeed so dark 1' God knows how
willingly I would help • you, were it in
my power. But misfortune has not conic
to von alone. It has passed my -thres
hold-also, and the thresholds of thousands
besides. Westbrook has B.ecn some sat
changes since you went array.
Mr. Fleetwood took the letter from the
table on which he had placed it, and laid
it in'a drawer. "Poor AliCe Maynard I"
he sighed, as lie shut the drawer and
turned away. All day long the - thought
of that letter troubled him. Bow could
he answer it ? What could he say ?
was an sager, expectant cry for help; but
he had no belp.to r ive. The widowed
mother had asked bins for bread ; and
hOw could Ile offer her mere words in re
turn—cold, disappointing words ?
Fur two day's the letter remained in
the drawer where he had placed it.
It is no use," he would say, as the
thought of it cow bad again intruded.
" I cannot bring myself to write an an
s,Wer. Say.what I will, and the language
must seem to her but heartless sentences.
She cannot understand how greatly things
have changed with. me since she went out
from Westbrook. If she does not hear
from me she may 'think her letter has
been miscarried. She, like the rest of
us, is in God's hands. He will take care
of her.• We are of more value than the
sparrows."
But this could not satisfy Fleet
wood. Ile had a conscience, and it would
r.ot let him omit a plain duty without re
prod.
"If you have no money to give; offer
her kind and hopeful' words," said the in
ward monitor. " Even the crp of cold
water must not be withheld.l'
Unable to make - peace with himself,
Mr. 'Fleetwood at last sat down to answer
the widow's letter. Ile wrote her a brief,
kind suozestive note, but after reading
it over twice tore it up, saving as he did so,
• " It:reads like mockery. She eskod
the for bread, and it seems like giving
her a - stone."
Then he tried it again, but not much
mere to his satisfaCtion. This answer he
was also about destroying; but he checked
himself with the words :
" I might pen forty letters, and the
last would be no better than the first.
Let this one go !"
And he folded, sealed and directed it.
The next mail that left Westbook bore
it away for its remote destination. Let
us return to Mrs. Maynard.
"We should have had an answer from
Fleetwood two days ego, Alice."
The daughter sighed, but did not an
swer.
'•What time does the mail from tile
cast come in, Alice ?"
"At four o'clock ?"
"And it is five now Y"
"Yes, ma'am."
"Won't you put on your bonnet and
step over to the post office ?"
Alice went and returned, as on the
two previous days, with notlueg in her
hand.
, "No letter ?" said Mrs. Maynard, as
she catue in.
"None,". was the sadly spoken reply.
'Oh, why has he not written? If
help conic not from Mr. Fleetwood,
there is no help for us in this world.
Another day of waiting, in which that
deferred hope which maketh the heart
sick trembled like the light of a taper
flickering in the wind, passing wearily:
away. At five o'clock Alice was at the
post. office again. Now a letter was placed
in herhaticri directed to her mother, and
on the invelope she read, with a heart'
bound the word "Westbrook." Not
fleeter than her footsteps was the wind,
as she ran back hoMe.
"A letter, and front Westbrook l" she
cried out eagerly, as she entered the room
where-her mother was anxiously awaitingi
her.
.The hands . of Mrs. Maynard shook as
she opened and unfolded the long hoped
for answer. It was brief, and its con
tents understood in a few moments--'
Alice, whose eyes were fixed eagerly up
on her mother as she read in silence. saw
her countenance change, grow pale, and
the look of hopeful expectation died out
utterly. Then as the letter dropped to
the floor, her hands were held up against
her face so as to hide it from view, awl
she sat with the stillnes of one who had
been paralyzed. Taking up the letter,
Alice read it. .
"He writes kindly," said Alice, as 23be,
finished reading the letter, "and there
is comfort even iu words when they come
from the lips of a fried."
'Words do not feed the htingry - or
clothe the naked," answered Mrs May
nard in Some iitt •rness of tone.
She had scarcely said this when the
door of the room in which they were sit
ting-was pushed open, and a boy about
ten years old, bare,footed
.and meagerly
clad, came to with a pitcher in one hand
and a small basket iu the other.
- 1 —
, • ,
"Motner sent these, Alms Maynara."l
he said, with.epleasantsmile face. '
The pitcher Was filled with new milk,
and there was n loaf of bread, hot from
the.oven in the basket. "She says please
accept them.",i
"Your mother is very kind.. Henry,"
replied Mrs. Maynard. 'Tell her that I
am very much, übliged
. to her."
"And she's'very . lunch obliged lo you,"
said the . boy.
"For what, ; Henry ?"
"Don't yod know ?" And the boy
lookcd at her in a. pleased way.
, Mrs.. Maynard .shook her head.
'"Don't you iremember one day, when I
was over here, that yon asked me if I
could read ?"
"I've forgotten."
"Wo haven't then, mother and I. You
asked me if .F could:read, and I said no.
Then you told me must learn right
away, and yen got a book and! showed
me- A B C's ; 1 " making me go over them
a good many times until I knewlthem all
by heart. Then you gtive um the. book.
I have studied it almost every day, and
now I can spell in two syllables.". -
""And this is why your mother sent toe
such a nice loaf of bread and a pitcher of
new milk ?"
"Yes, ma 'am."
"You can't: read it ?0
"Then you - must bring your book over
and let me give you another lesson."
"011, will you ?" A light like sun
shine came into the boy's lace.
"Yes, Henry, and with pleasure. You
may come every day if you will,"
"May I ? Oh, that, Will be good !
And :%.Irs. Maynard—" Henry checked
himself. lie
.evidently wished to go a
little fartlier-,
"What is it, Henry ?" said Mrs. May.
wird, eccouragingly. -
"May I bring Katy along sometimes ?
—She wants to learn so badly. She
'mast knows her letters."
"Why yes; Henry. Bring Katy by all
means. Alice will teach hen"!
Henry glaiieed toward Alice; as if not
fully satistied:in regard to her view in
the case. But she gave him an assuring
smile and word, and the boy ran home
With'light feet •to tell the odsvi.
"What does this mean, Alice ?'• said
•3lrs. Maynard, looking at her 'daughter
with a countenance through which a dim
light seemed breaking.
"It may be true what Mr. Fleetwood
says," replied Alice, " the work that God
has for us to 'do may now be lying, all
unseen, around us."
" This is no mere chance," I remarked
Irs. Maynard, in a thought fui way.
"Don't you remember," said Alice,
" bow often dear father used to say there
was no suck thing as chance? I felt,
while reading Mr. Fleetwood'Oetter, as
if it was father who was speaklng to us.",
Mrs. Maynard shut her eyes and sat
very still fur many moments; then she
opened the letter, which.she held in her
hand, and read it through slowly.
"It reads• different now. lam sorry
for Mr. Fleetwood. It is hard, when
years lay upon us their long and accumu
lating ',nations, to find earthly props sud
denly removed. Poor mrn ! It is hard,
it seems as if he ought to have been spar
ed. What he had to give he has given
freely, and I thank him with grateful
feelings. Yes, I have a father in Heav
en, and I will look up_ to him in these
days of darkness. • He will show us the
way. Who knows but the path is opened
for us?"
"My own thought, mother. There are
more thaw forty children in thig town who
-are growing up in as much ighorauce as
Henry Auld- and his Sit:t.g. ! Their pa
tents will net, or 'cannot send them to
school. These children • have immortal
souls, and almost infinite capacities that
will be developed for good or evil. They
are God's children. Let us care for them.
and God will care for is. Let us take
the leaf of bread and pitcher of milk- as
the sign of God's providence towards - us.
I . feel, dear mother, that suck truth will
not be, in vain. Mr. Fleettvdod',s letter'
has turned the channel of my thoughts
in a new direction. May God reward
him fur all he has said to us in this. our
tune of need, and said so k i inely and
wisely."
The daughter's hope and 'faith flowed
into the mother's heart. They were not
indolept, selfindulgent women. All they
asked was to be shown their work • and
pow, in their eyes, it seemed to be lying
all around thein.
On - the - next day Henry Auld came
over with hi' sister Katy, and received
the promised lessons.,
" Do you'"lcnow any other) boys and
girls who wish to knoll! !lOW to learn to
read ?" asked Mrs. Mascara; as the chil
dren were gOilm away.
" Oh, yes, I a good Many,' re
plied Henry, and then stoadl waiting to
hear What would come-nest. j • • •
" Bring them along when yoti come to
morrow," said: Mrs. Maynard.!' " - It - will
be as easy to teach half a dozen as two."
" Won't Tow JUDE'S be glad though,"
--- -
she heard llenry say to hi4sister as Oh
went out through the'gate.
fr
Throe . months wont by, and yet Mr.
Fleetwood received no response to the ari
swer which he had given to Mrs. 3.1 a -
nard's imploring letter. He did not re
meniber distinctly what he bad writt4.
He only knew that he had setit.her mere
words when she asked for deeds.. fr i e.
never thought of het without a troubl
feeling. •
" - How cold oad heartless that lett r
must have seemed !" ; he would say to hiM.-
self sometimes.
if she really knew how it wils
with me? If she . Couid see into my breMk'
poor woman I But she is in the hands
of God, and lie is a friend who sticketh
closer than -a brother." •
At last there came areply to his worl
of encouragement and hope, which, thonib
flowing warm from his heart, see.ued to
grow so cold in -the Utterance: M 4.
Maynard wrote:
MY DEAR Stu :—More than foiir
months ago you wrote to me, " You Baste

IFather who has not forgotten you. Lodk

- to.liim, and hope in Him." And yo l a
i said also, "Ile has something forall lir
children to do;and something for yon to
do, and your hands will find• the work.
It may now be lying, all 'unseen, around
you." • My heart blessed you, Sir, f - tt•
i those hopeful, suggestive words. Yes,
God had work fur me to do—and it was
lying, even when I wrote to you in My
Ifear and despair, all around me, though
unseen by my dull eyes. Like apples lif
gold in pictures of silver, were your fit'y
spoken words. I had taught a child his
letters, and his poor but grateful tiotli4
'sent me in return a loaf of bread and) n
pitcher of milk fur my children. 'Vora
letter and this offering, in God's proVi
, Bence, came together. I had the teit
and illustration side by side. There were
many ignorant children in our town, said
Alice and I, one to the other, and thly
i are God's children. Let us teach
,more
lof them, as we taught this child, takir
that loaf of bread and offering of milk s,
a sign that God will provide fur us in the
work. We did not hesitate, but acted in
the suggestion at once. And now, t e
have over thirty poor little children ui
der our care, and we have not wanted fig.
bread: Some of the pments'pay- us in
money, some in provisions, and some do
nothing in return. But we take all cliil- 1
