"Here, here; yet stay : do not Pay that it came from me... 1 guveit her, but yet I curse MS And with this speech was flung to, with pas sionate vehemence; the parlor door of one of the noblest'mansions in 'London. The indi vidual who stood without, was a short set man about forty years of age, of a dark complexion and shabbily clothed. He gazed about him in the splendid hall as though he had suddenly dropped in some' enchanted temple ; and was only awakened from his stupor by the liveried I menial politely requesting him to "clear." The poor man left the house, but tightly clutched hisireasurei till the light falling from a neighboring gas lamp, alkiwed him to count the amount. "I wronged him," - said he, "I wronged him." "Five guineas.! 'twill last a long time, if the relief be not too late ; if the sufferer's spirit has not winged its flight to [maven, 'twill make her passage easier, though never bring her back to dire." J. w. BARR So on he strode through the streets of the metropolis. He passed up the Stand and Fleet street. There was the busy throng, the living tide of human life pressing on the thoughtless and careless. There was business in all its activity, everything to attract or delay, but the wayfarer tbought of but one, and that was In. the eastern suburbs of the city, in an upper room of one of the most mean huts of that neighborhood, on an bumble, yet neat bed, lay a young:and beautiful female. She could be scarcely twenty-two years of age, yet death had pressed a clear stamp upon her lovely features. She lay apparently near expiration, while everything ,around the room gave the, appearance of desolate poverty. There was, an apology for a fire on a cheer less hearth, where a few sticks of wood sent forth at once light and a slight warmth.

JUNE. old lady was kneeling by the bed, and her eyes never wandered frotn the pale features of the dying girl. Every motion of the patient's lip was noticed, with an anxiety and care that, if aught human could do it, would have blunted to the dying oue the sharp sorrows of that hour. "Is be returned I" she asked in a faint trem ulous voice "Not yet," was the reply. "God forgive me," said the patient, "for wishing to linger in this cold and cruel world; but oh, if I could bear with me his forgiveness : 'Tis bard to die estranged from those we love ; but," she added, and a soft smile stole over her face, "there is no sorrow there." At this moment the sound of ascending foot steps were heard, and presently the stranger we have noticed in the commencement of our tale, entered. Now life seemed to have enter ed the heart of .the sick girl, for she started for her couch and gazed fixedly and wildly at the stranger whom the old lady welcomed as Ro bert. "You have seen him—you have`:'.' shrieked she; "For the great God's sake, tell me, have you seen him?" Both entreated her to be calm, and from his pocket Robert drew the money he had receiv ed. "I have seen him," said he, "and here are he fruits." "He bade me not to let you know that it came from him." "Kind ! kind !" said the poor girl, weeping; "he would not let me feel the favor. My poor father, and I shall bear thy blessing and thy pat:don to the grave." But beholding the serious aspect of Robert, she still pressed him fur the story of the inter view. Go on ! he gave it you, told you to keep the author unknown, and sent me—his blessing." "His courses?" said Robert, and he burst into tears. A. wild and almost superhuman shriek. rang through that shattered dwelling, and that hum ble bed bore a corpse ! that last cruelty had broken the feeble threads of life,! Yes, died !—died as thousands die; unnoticed we- had almost said unknown;, thousands, whose life's morning dawned amid smiles and caresses, and the bright fairy dreams of life, 'mid the joyous welcome of relatives and the fond flattery of the interested. Who shall envy the high estate of the rich ? it is a lofty precipice, and the fall will be more deadly and dangerous. • The name of' the girl who thus closed a bitter life of destruction and sorrow, was Lucy, once the admired, and almost idolized daugh ter of 'Sir Ralph 'Fisher. When thejrud of lovely youth burst into womanhood, she was the admired of all - adatirer:" Thousands knelt at the shrine of her beauty. ' Among them was one unknown to the princely throng. He had met her at the ball ; he won her atten tion; and for weeks he visited her, not indeed is his own, but an assumed character. She dared to lore him, and knowing her father's disposition—to marry him. After their Union, Sir Ralph Fisher was made acquainted with the circumstance. His pride was rouged, his proud ambitious schemes were levelled to the dust,and in the bitterness of his heart, Lear-like, he breathed out curses on his daughter. • "Seoner 'would I cast her fortune to the beg tgar, or bury it in the ocean, than one farthing shmild grace that girl !" said he, and he shut his heart up from all compassion. The result was as might be expected. The husband of Lucy was a man who "lives by his wits; a heartless, soulless villain, who was con tent to live on the sufferings and losses of oth ers." The gaining 'table and every haunt of vice was his favorite resort, and there he revel led and sported in the pollution of his soul.— Oh ! then did the delusive hopes, that had buoyed up that young girl's mind, fade away one by one ! Her husband left her—and then, .desolate and broken.hearted, she turned her footsteps to her father's house, only to be re- pulsed with scorn and hatred; and then bitter want and disease gnawed .at her heart-strings and a wild blast swept over the summer of her hopes 1 There was but one person to whom she dar ed apply 3 it was an old inmate of her father's family and her nurse- She found her in the .humble dwelling we have described, but not Ain the bloom had faded from her cheek, the lustre from her eye, and the canker was busy with her heart-strings. The cause of her dis 'iress, when all hopes of eurichintt himself were fled, had forsaken her—be was gone none knew whither—and the eyes of the poor girl were closed by the very bands which first bore her infant weight. Imagination can create no sorrows which touch the human heart like those of real life. A SAFE BET. About the time of the first influx of emigre- tion into California, a little scene occurred on the steamer Tennessee, during one of her up ward cruises in the Pacific Ocean, which we do no remember of seeing in Print. • One of those moral fungi on society, known in general parlance by the sobriquet of "black legs," had spread a tempting bait, in the way of a little game of pharo, before a promiscuous assemblage of suckers, hoosiers, buckeyes, corn - crackers, Ste.; who were on there way to New Eldorado. Among the number was a sturdy Kentuckian who, in his simple suit of homespun, stood watching the game with interest. Presently thrutsing his hands into the depths of his over coat pocket, he produced a ,ereasy, well worn, but withal, well lined pocket-book, and taking from its recesses a bill, be extended it to the dealer, saying : "Here, old feller, I lost ten that time and here's the money." "How is that ?" exclaimed the sharper, "I saw you make no bet." "Wal, you see, I sez to myself, sez I, that jack's uncommonly lucky keard, and durn my picters if I don't bet a ten on it; and so the pesky jack lost, and you've got my money." Thinking he had picked up a green horn, the gambler gave a sly wink, at the few "know ing ones" who encircled him, and they went on with the game. After a few deals, our corner:leiter Smacked his fist emphatically on the table, and exclaim ed : • "Dod drabbit, thar goes another sawbuck on the plaguey jack. Here, take it ole hoss fly." With an ill suppressedgrin of satisfaction, the sharper took the money and added :it to the rapidly growing pile before him. In the due course of time the jack came up triumphant, and our yeoman, jumping up nearly to the ear lines, cracked his heels to gether and exclaimed "By holey ! "I won fifty that time! So fork over, you lovely old boss, you!" The "sell" was so evident, that the gambler had nothing else to do than pay the money, which he did, with the remark that "the next time the Kentuckian made a bet, he wanted him to put the money down." 1.4111 LITTLE JOHNNY'S PRAYER A poor widow called her four little children to her one morning and said to them : "My dear children,- this morning I cangive you nothing to eat; there is no more bread, nor meat, nor even a potato in the house. I have worked for . you, as hard as ever I could, and now I feel so ill I can do no more. You can pray to God, who•has himself said, "Call. upon me in the day of trouble, and I will deliver you." Little Johnny, being very hungry, was much troubled by what, his mother had said. As he was on his way to school he kneeled down and prayed aloud : • "0 God, my heavenly Father, and my Savi our, through whom I may come to thee, hear me, a little child, pray I Our mother has no bread, nor meat, nor even• a potato ; do give us something, that we and our dear mother may not starve Help us, 0 Lord I Thou art rich and good,:and canst easily help, us; and thou bast promised to hear the cry of the poor and needy; so help and hear us, for they, dear son's sake 1" This was Johnny's simple prayer. After saying it he hurried on to school. When he returned home in the middle of the day, what was his:surprise and joy to . see a great loaf of bread, a large dish of meat, and a basketful of potatoes upon the table ! "Dear mother," said he "did not an angel bring all these things to you through the win .dow ?" "No," said the mother, "but God heard you when you were praying. A lady was near the place, where you could 'not see her, but she could both see and hear you—and so she sent all these things. She was the, angel that. God sent to help us in our need. And now, dear children, let us return thanks to God, and trust in him always.'

IN= A young man's affections are not always wrong, but they are generally wise-placed. Shakspeare advises actors to talk "tripping y," but it isn't well to walk thus. We generally prefer new articles to old ones—the new-wades to old maids. For many people, country-life is the honey wherein they take the pill of city-life. The body—that is dust; the soul—'tis a bud of eternity. People and cows are the only beings that have calves. A thoroughly honest man will not lie even o his dog or in any way betray the brutes con- fidence We may well regard the first stirrings of human emotions as holy—regard them as the firstlings for the altar of God. If you would render your children helpless all their lives, never •compel or permit them to help themselves. First do the duty which lies nearest you, which you know to be a duty. Probably your second duty will then have become clear. Morbid writers disgust us by allowing the water-works of their own feelings to be playing forever as a spectacle to others. To him who has a butterfly-proboscis, enough honey-cells are ever open in every blue thistle-blossom of destiny. The rich may oftentimes well envy the poor; coarse linen keeps the body warmer than fine linen or silk. Men often attempt, by the light of reason to discover the mysteries of eternity. They might as well hold a candle to see the sun. Subjection to our own necessities is freedom. Subjection to the necessities of others is sla very.
