When we drink the cup of pleasure, It may danger with it bring ; Yet be happy and light-hearted, Wh'ile youth is in its spring. Close drawn curtains—stillness; such deep surrounding stillness that breathing was-audi ble. In this dimness and silence sat, through the long days refusing to be comforted, a mother who had lust her child :=Not a child in the innocence of infancy, but in . the fra grance and purity of young womanhood. A sorrow like this is hard co bear. It touches the very springs of life, and dashes their waters with bitterness. It weighs down the heart with a burden that makes every, pulsa tion weak and painful. Clouds envelop the sun, and the earth is in shadow. "If I could only see her in my dreams," said Mrs. Ellsworth, to a friend who had 'left the outside cheerful world, and come into the gloomy apartment where the bereaved one sat nursing her sorrow. "If I could only see her i■ my dreams, it would be something. But, since the day her face was shut fioin me by the coffin lid, neither to outward sight nor in ward vision has it again beenvisible.' Through how many hours _of the night have I kept awake, hoping that I might see • her in the darkness. I was not afraid. Dear, dear child ! She has gnii .

But now -L sit ancl-4hink of Margaret for hours, yet. do not perceive her.presence." The friend made no attempt to meet the gate of Mrs. Ellsworth by theory or doctrine. She understood her case, and knew that there was no comfort in words. So, after sitting in ?Pence for a little while, she said : "You knew Mrs. Garland ?" "Yes•" "Have you beard about her ?" "N 0..! :What about her?" "Not that-her husband was at Gettys burg?"' "Why, no! Gettysburg I" ''Yes;' and what makes the ease sadder, his body' could not be found. She will never know the - place of his burial!" "Have you seen her ?" asked Mrs. Ells worth. . _ "No; my acquaintance was too slight to warrant intrusion. Mit you were au intimate friend I think."

COM.FORTED. BY T.' S. ARTHUR. "We are near and dear friends; her affliction is heavier than mine; I will go to her," said Mrs. Ellsworth. Temperaments are different, and so are the principles on which character is based. No two minds bear sorrow alike. The heart of Mrs. Ellsworth failed her as she : crossed, the threshold of her friend's dwelling. She had come to offer the comfort of her presence—not to deal in fruitless words,and now she felt that even her presence could only add gloom to the darkness in which Mrs. Garland was en shrouded. A few moments of waiting and then A, servant invited her up stairs. The chamber in which she found her friend was not in twilight shadows, but-cheerful with tem pered light. As she entered she met a pale, suffering face, and eyes mooing over. ,The face hid itself on her bosom. Tears mingled with tears, and sobs answered to sobs : "It ,was so kind in you to come," said Mrs. Garland, as, they .sat down together.. "I have thought of you so many times, and wished to see you," A. baby sat on the floor—a baby ten months old. His nurse had gone down stairs. He was half alarmed at the presence of a stranger, and put up his hands to be, taken. His moth er lifted him into her arms; and he nestled his head close down against her bosom, but with his eyes on Mrs. F 4 llsworth's face. "Dear baby l" said Mrs. Ellsworth, the moisture glistening in her eyes. "Margaret loved, him so 1 I never look at him that I do not think .of Margaret," return ed Mrs. Garland. "And he was so fond of her—dear girl that she was 1 I dreamed of her last night. She was standing in the very room, with Eddy, in her arms. How plainly I can see her ?" "0, I would give all that I have in the world for just such a dream I to see her, even in my sleep. Oh, ye * s i she loved Eddy. Come, dar ling." And Mrs. Ellsworth, in whose heart was born at, that instalt a...lender yearning to wards the child, held oup her hands. The baby felt the new-born love, and responded by leaping into Mrs. Ellsworth's arms, and laying his head down sweetly on her bosom. "Just so he would spring into Margaret's arms," said the mother. . , "he loved all little children. A baby was her delight." And something of that very de light transfused itpelf through the soul of Mrs. Ellsworth. Since her own little ones ley on her breast, she had never preceived such beauty in a baby. And Margaret had loved this baby so ten derly ! had so often held him in her arms, and felt his head against her bosom as she felt it now ! A thrill of strange pleasure ran along her nerves. She had an, intimation of IVllrga. ret's presence such as had, not been given 'since the veil of death dropped down between them. “She so tenderly loved little children while in. this world,” said Mrs. Garland, "that, I doubt not, God has placed her in the midst of them. Their pure spirits are going upwards daily and hourly. Angels are gathering them, like fragrant harvest, from thousands.of earthly homes, and garnering them in heaven. I have often pictured Margaret to my thought, sur rounded by babies and little children, in minis tering to whom she found a purer and more un failing delight than she ever knew upon the earth," The countenance of Mrs. Ellsworth lighten ed. Jler eyes glanced upwards; the close com pression of her quivering lips gave away to something like a smile. "While my thought has dwelt too,often with the body in the grave," l she answered, "even , when it followed her across the dividing river, it realized no actual condition of life—saw her in no congenial associations---realized n'thing Dear, friend; you have put stones beneath my sinking feet. It may not just be as yoti have imagined; but one thing is plain to me now— the pure and innocent loves of her heart will not flow forth to be lost like water in sand." "No, no," said Mrs. Garland. "Defect jut pediment, hindrance are of this world. , They are born of ,evil. But, in heaven, every pure fiesire—every tender love—is gratified. Let our souls take up their rest in this ; let us find some relief to pain in the sure faith that it is well with our departed ones; and that, if they come.to us in spirit, they will be able to draw nearer is, our souls are calm and resigned to God's will, then if they were shrouded in dis imir,..and turbulent with complaint." ‘,'Yes, yes. It must be so," returned Mrs. Ellsworth. "A nersuggestion comes .to me. tkaYe PO BP ‘tiddcn sP44.',awU, mid,.pall MO. 4P.P4,4111tta eltk l 4 Wthi npt, i 4 we tiler, love is still the same. .Iler thought could not have turned itself froth me. Why have I had no sign of her presence ?" Mrs. Garland reached her hand for the child, who was still in Mrs Ellsworth's arms; but Mrs. Ellsworth drew him closer, saying : "Let him remain—dear baby . ! I have hardly acknowleged it to myself, but since he has been lying here, Margaret has seemed almost in bodily presende ;beside me. I came to grieve with you, dear friend, in your deep sorrow, and 10, my heart has beam comforted-! "I have been hiding ,away from my darling," said Mrs. Ellsworth, talking. with herself as she went homeward. "I have so darkened all the chambers. in which my soul dwelt, that she could not find me. I must open the win• dows ; I must let in the light; I must clothe my spiriti with fairer' gartnenta. I must no longer think of my ins's, but of her. gain.. .As God's kingdom in the heavens into which she has been borne is a kingdom of mutual love and service, my life must dwell among useful things if I would be in association with angles —and she is an angle." That night she had a dream of Margaret. She came in her spotless garment, holding, lit tie Eddy in her arms, and smiling down upon him With looks of ineffable sweetness. How real it all ,was ! , "Take him dear, mother!" She held him forth, and he sprung to the arms of Mrs. Ells worth. The smile on Margaret's face grew tenderer, as she said. "Of such is the kingdom of hpaven." The dream passed. And the morning came. But a sense of Margaret's presence remained If she thought of her sadly ; if she , repined at her loss; if she sat down with folded hands, gathering gloomy states around her, this sense of presence began to fade. The departed one to move afar off. But, in all cheerful work, in all self-forgetfulness, in all service for another, she felt her very near. Sometimes she could say: "Margaret has been with me all day long." And so she was comforted. In an almost constrained effort to leave her own sorrow, and try to soften the pain, that lay close and hard upon aoother spirit, she had , found the way, of consolation. A COURT SCENE'. There was a hush in the police' court-room as the red"-no'sed• judge took , his seat upon the beuch,-and shouted : - • ,?Bring the prisoner into court!? "Here I am,.bourid. to blaze, as the spiritof turpentine said when he was all' .a-fire," said the prisoner. "We will take a little fire out-of you. How do you•live ?" asked the judge.

"Now, air your punishnient shall depend on the shortness of your ariswers.-1. suppose you live by going around the docks." "No, sir; I can't go around the docks without a coat, and I ain't got none."
