OUR MOUNTAIN SOLDIERS%
Hurrah I hurrah ! let traitor hearts
And traitor hands be warr
Our country calls our eagle down,
From Mt: her mountain eyry I
As ehawless as the streams that leap
Amid their granite ledges;
As hardy ns the, pines that spring
Around their mountain edges,
They come, the het - 043 of the North 1
In all their galtant daring ;
The trusty bayonet and gun,
The starry banner bearing,
As bright as when its beauty nerved
Our fathers' hearts of iron ;
As whets, before its burning stars,
Fled back the British Lion!
What if, with hands unused to hold
The musket or the sabre,
They looked for calmer scenes of toil,
And humble fields uflubor:
The simple zarb of peaceful life—
No coward spirits wore it;
The wind that stirs the corn may rise,
And drive the cionds before it.
Their country's sword! no quiet joys
Could tempt them to refuse it
The deathless courage in their hearts
Shall teach them how to' use it.
They leave not, conseripi- like, their homes,
All dreary and- benighted ;
The tire that glows within their hearts
Was at their hearth• stones lighted!
The fairest scenes, the dearest eyes—
They, in:tiffany resigned them
Their parting words, though brief and sad,
Left prodder friends behind thew.
And not unblessed they come ; their brows
Were kissed by saindy mothers;
Fund wires will for their husbands pray,
And sisters fur their brothers.
Then speed them forward ! they shall write
Our country's proudest story—
Or if they die. their falling place
Will be the field of glory I
Hurrah! hurrah! let traitor hearts
And traitor hands be wary;
Our country calls her eagle down,
Prow oIT tier mountain eyry.
Long-Faced Piety
I have seen a deacon in the pride of
his deep humility. Ile combed his hair
straight and looked studiously after the
main chance; and while he looked he
looked he employed htinself in setting a
gaud example. His dress was rigidly
plain, and los wife was not indulzed iu
the vanities of millinery and mem taunt k
lug. lie never joked. He did not. blow
What a joke was, any further than to know
that it was a sin. He carried a Sunday
faee through the week... He did nut min
g!e in the happy social parties of the
n ighborhood. He was a deacon. He
stvrved his social natu.e because he was
a deacun. refrained from participa
tion in a free and generous life because
lie was a deacon. Ile made his children
hate Sunday because he was a deacon.
lie so brought them up that they learned
to consider themselves unfortunate in
being the children of a deacon. His wife
wits pitied by other women because-.she
was the wife of a deacon. Nobody loved
him. If he came into a cirele \ where met,
were laughing or relating stories. they
always stopped until he left. No one
ever grasped his hand cordiaoy,or slapped
him on the shoulder,or spoke of him as a
good fellow. He scented as tlry,and hard,
and tough as a piece of jerked beef. There
was no softness of character—no juiciness
—no lovetiness in hint.
Now it is no use for me to undertake
to realize to Myself that God admires
such a character as this. Ido not doubt J,
that lie loves such a man as this, as he
lu-es 411 men; but to admire his style ofj
utatitnioti and piety is impossible for any
intelligent being. It lacks the roundness
and sweetness, that belong to a truly ad
mirable character. Such a man carica
tures Christianity and scares other men
away from it. Such a man ostentation y
presents hierself as one in whose life re
ligion is dominant It is religion that is
supposed" to rub down that lung face,and
inspire that stiff demeanor, and to make!
hint in every point an unattractive and+
unlovable wan. Of course, it is not, re-1
ligion that does anything of the kind, but I
it has the credit of it with the world, and
the world does not like h. ( It lot.ks around
and sees a great many men who do not
pretend to religion at all, and yet who are
very lovable men. If religion can trans
form a pleasant wan into an unpleasant
one, and change a free, bright and happy
home into a dismal place of slavery, and
blot out a man's msthetic and social na
tore, the world naturally thinks that get-1
ting religion would be almost as much of,
a misfortune as getting some melancholy,!
Ichronic disease, and I do not blame it.'
It is not to be wondered at, that the wo. Id
should mistake the true nature of Chris
tianity, when Christians themselves en
tertain such grievous errors about it.
I suppose . that God is attracted to very
much the sane style of character that men
are. Christ loved a young man at first
sight who lacked the very thing essential
to his highest manhood. Bat He loved

the kind of man He saw before Him. He
was upright, frank-hearted, open winded,
and bright; and "Jesus beheld him, loved
him." There are men whom one eaunt t
help loving and admiring though they
lack a great many things —things very
"needful' to 'make them perfect wen,
Now. I put it to good conscientious men
and women, whether they do not take
more pleasure in the society of a war4ll ,
hearted, generous, chivalrous; wellAd
man of the world ; than in the society of
any of that class of whom the deacon I
Lave mentioned is a type. I know' they.
do and they cannot help it.
There is wore of that which belongs to
'a first class Christian character in the
former than in the latter, Sand if I were
called upon to test the two men by com
manding them to sell what they have and
give to the floor, I should be disappointed
were the deacon to behave 'the best. A
character which religion does not fructify
—does not soften, enlarge, beautify, and
enrich—is not benefittod by religion—or
rather, has not possessed itself of religion.
God loves that which is beautiful and
attractive in character, just as much as
we do; and it Makes no difference where
he sees it. He does not hate the amiable
traits of a sinner because' he is a sinner,
nor does he admire the traits of a Christ
ian which we feel to be euntemptible, and!
simply because they belong Loa Christian.
A Christain sucked dry of his human
ity is as juiceless. and as flavorless as a
sucked mange, and I believe God regards
him in the same light that we do. He
will save such I duubr not, for ihek faith;
and, in the coining world, they will learn
what they do nut know here;. but the
question whether they are as well worth
saving as some of their neighbors;, may, I
think, be legitimately entertained. In
saying this, I mean to be neither light I
nor irreverent. I mean simply to indieatel
that some men are worth a great deal
more to themselves and to their fellows
that, others.— Timothy Tifronth. , •
GIVE Youtt;:,liitizi A PAPER.—A child
beginning to read becomes delighted with
a newspaper. because he reads the names
of things which are very familiar. and
will make proeress accordingly. A news

must. consider that substantial informa

An African Fable.
A woman, who had been made captive.
land was being carried off by the enemies
lof her tribe, contrived to elude the vigi
-1
lance of her guards and escaped to the
woods. There she met a lion, who,. com
miserating her ; condition, threw her on
his back, and carried her as far as her
I native village. During the rejoicings
conserpent on her safe return, she was
often asked who aided big. in her journey
, back. To each she gave the same answer,
lion brought me to the village; be
was most kind, but his: breath was very
bad"
The lion who was lurking-in the
netrlt
borhood, heard this, and. being much
hurt walked away. A few nights after.
I the woman: was going towards the wood,
when she met a lion, who said to her,
-Take this piece of wood and strike me."
"Nay," said the woman, "I will not strike
you; for 1 received great kindness from a
I lion. and I know not whether von way
not be my benefactor." "I am that same
lion," said he. "Then," said she, "I
cannot strike." "Strike me f or I eat you,"
reiterated the lion. Seeing the lion was
deteratioed, she obeyed hint, and gave
him such a blow as to wound him severe
ly. "Now," said the lion, "depart,"
Two or three months after this they again
met, when the lion, telling the woman to,
examine his wound, asked if it was healed
"It is quite healed," said the , woman.
"And toy hair," said the lion; "has that
grown • again and covered the scar ?"
"Quite," said the woman ; "there remains
no trace of the blow." "Listen !"
ex
claimed the lion, "and know that a cut
heals of itself; and easily : but not so the
wound caused be an evil word. I would
sooner be wounded by the Blow of a sword
than by the stroke of a Woman's tougue."
This said, lie again threw her over his
hack, trottad off to the woods, and de.

followed her. When she reached home

Mr. Secesh, as soon as he recovered
from his surprise, apologized amply.
"Now, sir," continued the officer, "call
your wife to the door and wake her apol

When she made her appearance the
officer addressed her thus :
'Madame. we Union soldiers never
harm women. They arc protected where
ever we go by their weakness if not their
innocence. You insulted me without
provocation, bicause I was in the military
service of the United States, engaged in

FORTtINATE KISS: .7
The followine: pretty l little story is 'liar
_
rated by Frederick Brewer, *ho vouches
for its truthfulness:
. In the University of Upsalti, in Swe
den, lived a young student, a noble yuuth,
with great love fur his stud es, but with.
out the means a pursuing then... • He
was poor, withott conneetion. Still he
studied, living In great poverty, but
keeping a cheerful heart. His- good hu
m®r made him beloved by all his fellow
students.
One day he was standing on thesqUare
with some of them, when the attebtion of
the riung men Was arrested by a young
and elegant lady, who, at the side of .2'u
elder one was walking over the pla4.—
It was.the only daughter of the Cro'vernor
of Upsata, and the lady by her aide
_tvas
the governess. She was generally knOivn
for her goodness and gentleness of char
acter, and looked at with admiration by
all the students. As the young :men i
stood looking at her as she passed,: one
'
of them exclaimed :
it would be worth something to
have A, friss from such a mouth." •
The poor student, the hero of our story,
who loulted on that pure angelic face, ex
ciaimudi as if by inspiration :
"Well, I think I could have it!"
'•\%hat 1" cried his friends in ft elm
rtis, "arc you crszy ? 1.)o you know
her ?"
"Not at ail," be answered, "but I
think she would kiss we uow if Illsked
IMIS
"What in this place before our eves?"
"lt this place, Lefore your eyes."
"Freely ?"
"Yes, fraely."
"Well, if she trill give you a kiss-in
that wanner, I will give you a thousand
doliars !"
"And I,"—"and I," exclaimed three
or four others ; for it so 'happened that
several rich young men were in the,grodp.
and the bets ran high on so improbable
an event. The ditallenue was made and
received in less time than we take to tell
of it
Our hero (my authority tells not whetb •
er he was handsome or plain ; I have my
peculiar ideas for believing chat he was
rather plain but singularly good lonking
at the same 61116.0 immediately walked
up to the young lady and said :
"Mine traulin, my fortune is now in
your hands." •
She looked at him with tstonishment,
but arrested her steps. Ile proceeded to.
state his name and condition. his aspira
ration, and related simply and truly, what
had just now passed , between hintand
his comrades. I
The young lady listened attentively,
and at his ceasing to speak, she said
blushing, but with great sweetness :
"If by so little a dung so.inuch good
can by, etTected, - it would be fooPsh for me
to refuse; yoUr request 7" and pub:lely in
the square Blie kissed him
Next day the student was sent fur by
the*Governor. He wanted to see the luau
who dared to seek a kiss from his dangh.,
ter in that way, ana whom she had can-''
seated to kiss so.
Ile received hint with a scrutinizing
bow, but after an hour's con).-ersntion,
was so pleased with him that he ordered
him to dine at his table during kis studio
at Upsula.
Our young friend pursued his studies
in a wanner which soon made him re.
garded as the most promising student in
the University.
Three years Were now passed, since the
day of the first kiss, When the young wan,'
was allowed to give a second ene to thel
daughter of the Governor, as his intended
He became, later, one of the greatest
scholars in Sweden, and as much. re
spected fur his acquirements, as for his
character. His works 011 endure while
time lasts, among the works':of science;
and from this happy uni.m sprang a fam
ily well known in Sweden even at the
present time, and whose wealth and high
position iu society are regarded as trifles
in comparison with its wealth of goodness
and love.
