Near a certain forest theta stood a little eettage, Where Joseph and Ann and• their eight children lived; and love and in dustry and geatle pious minds, Were to be found also. The children, however, did not look merry and happy as fornierlY, but sores` rowful and pule. Their parents had been many days without work or wages; and all their industry could not prdcute food -for their children. One Sunday morning, And called Ler lit tle ones together and said, aVoine and di-' vide the last morsel of bread we have left. I know not where we shall find any more, or hoti we shall obtain any help." The_children eagerly took the , bread, kind divided it, b'ut beg ged that their father and r—would--take - a shate7 -- "1" es la eel less hungry," they said, "if you will eat seine toe." Many tears were shed while the last mor gels of bread Were eaten; only one little boy still smiled, and was too young to know any thing of the distress, or have any of the fears which the others had for the future, which seemed so dark before them. Should we not all strive, like little ehildren, to trust the future to our heavenly Father's care? The morning was bright and clear; and little Elizabeth, as she ate her portion open ed the door, and went out. It was bitterly cold; but she thought it pleasant, as she leaked at the pure blue sky, and the trees in the forest, all white and glittering in their dress of snow. As she stood, she heard a taint ehirning sound ; and looking about, she saw a_little bird upon the ground, It seem ed almost dead, as if witli b hunger, and could not move its wearied wings: It was trying in vain to free itself from the cold deep snow, which for many 'days had been falling heavily. Poor little bird I." said the little girl; "are you cold and hungry, too ?" She took it up, and pressed it to her face tenderly, try ing to warm it. She fed it with her last crumbs of bread, and then carefully carried it into the house. "See, mother," said she, tis 1 1 • I • I: ' . . • : ge-1 . and cold.' I found it shivering in the snow." Thee a bri thounhtofhope,-I*. • emu o ig t, came into the mother's heart; and with a glad and trusting look, she said, "Not a sparrow falls to the ground without our Father sees it." , I believe the words of our Saviour. All the hairs of our heads are numbered. Shall Ibe so sad and anx ious, since Le cares for the birds? Chil dren, let us pray to Him." She had scarcely said these words when her husband came in; and, directly follow ing him, came a rich gentleman, who lived not far distant. Ile was rich in lands and possession; and rich, too, in charity. "God comfort you, he said, as he came in ; "the help of man is not sufficient.— hy, Joseph, did you not tell me of such need Its I see is among you ? lam alone, and have abundance which God has en- • mate' to me. was coming from church, and still thinking of words I bad beard there, how we ought to love each other; as I was passing near this cottage, I saw your little child, half naked and pale with hunger, how she cared for a little bird, and gave it her last crumb of bread; and I took it as a sign to myself what I ought to I hastened home, and made still greater haste to return, and overtook her father at the door, and could see how Aieavy his heart was with care. And now, little'orte, come here—come, and I will repay you for what you did for the bird." And he took from, the, f01d...0f his cloak a basket filled with pre visions of different kinds; and giving it to Elizabeth, he said, "Now divide these." How her bright eyes. sparkled with de light ! How the children rejoiced ! and all began to partake of the foodwhich the lit tle girl rejoiced in having to give. "Ah ! see," said Ann, "how God has heard our prayers." Tears filled the eyes of the good man,— "Listen," said he to Joseph ; I will give you work from this time on my own land; and just remember, when you aro in need, I have enough for you " And then he, hastened from the door, leaving behind him the sound of thanks and joyful weeping. From.that 'time the cottage beside the forest was,pever destitute of food, though want still lay heavily on the country around. The gentle little .E izabeth muted her bird till spring returned, and then set.free the. little messenger, which had seemed to bring them tidings that help was nehand. "Fly away, now," said Ann ; , "you brought us a happy promise; and well it was fulfil led. 0 ivy children, forget it not! Every word of our Saviour truth indeed." Value of Amusement.

Let ,me tell you something that 4k)pened when I was a girl though , it was only a joke." _--I-soa ted-myseliaka s T' ;sten to her story. She tenderly stroked curls and commenced,: "My,room-mate and confidante at boarding school was a most beautiful girl; her name was Irene Carlton. She was the daughter: of a rich southcru planter, and the favorite of the whole school. ShO told me, one night that floury Saffarans, the head clerk at the villagcoconfectionery, had told her that he loved her, she was so surprised she could not answer, but promised to do so atsome future, time. She asked my advice about it, and told me .that she loved him, for if he was poor, he was handsome and,polished; but her parents would never be, willing for her ,te marry him. I told her to do nothing which was likely to anger her parents, and to scud him word to discontinue his attentions. She did so, and iii a very short time:the whole school by some means, found out about their love affair. Lelia Brown, my nest best friend, and my. self, resolved to have some 'fun' at the ex pense of Irene and:her lover. We wrote an anonymous letter to Henry; he of course, supposing it came from Irene answered it.— We received it, and wrote another, and a regular correspondence was established.— We took good 'care to keep them from meet ing for we N knew if they did all would be dis covered. In his letters Henry begged, and 'bored for an-interview, and all the while Irene was wonderin w y_b_e_clia-notr-e; . u s e was too proud to ask. Thus matters continued for two or three months, when Henry, finding an interview would not be granted, he proposed by letter. That was just what wA wanted. The joke was so good that we told it to several others, after proMising to keep the. utmost secrecy about it. We. answered in the affirmative, and told him to engage a priest and come at ten o'clock the next night and be married clandestinely. Silly, foolish girls. we were, little thinking of the wrong we were doing, for we persuaded the chambermaid at the Seminary, a bright, negro girl, to participate in the joke, and , personate Irene, and be mar ried to Henry Sit:prim. At the appointed hour, the girl dressed in some Of our garments, and a large black acia.shawl_throWnoverimr_he&d_to disguise her, was waiting in the garden for Henry. We girls were concealed behind the shrub bery to witness Ithe grand scene and disci°. sure, as we thought. • We could berg) , re strain our laughing as, we saw Henry ap proach and take her by the hand, which was encased in a kid glove, he whispered a few words in her ear and kissed her through the veil. I was so convulsed I really thought nihould die. I crammed my skirt in my mouth, and succeeded in. keening him from hearing me. Presently he drew her hand within his arm, and they rapidly walked away. This was mere than we expected, and the thought . of their really getting married burst upon us with overwhelming force. Here was a fix. Not one Of us dared to interfere, and we could plainly see, by the light of the full moon, that they had nearly reaehed the school church. We :concluded to witness the whole thing, if we could not stop it, and we hurried to the Church. Cecily, the ne gro girl, we all knew was very timid and would not interrupt the wedding 'because she thought we would take all blame, Half4earing, half-laughing, we witnessed the.ceremony. A shudder/ passed over my frame when I heard the holy man pronounce Henry Saffarans and the negro girl-man and wife. Henry clasped her in his arms, and raising the veil to imprint a•kiss upon her brow, but with a wild yell of rage he threw the girl from him. She staggered and fall, striking her forehead upon one of the bench- Cs. I rushed to explain ; but, before I reach. ed.tim priest; Henry fell heavily to the floor; the deception and marriige was too much for him—he was dead! Cecily was prop erly eared for, and she recovered: We woks. sed all, and. wore pardoned', but it. was many ..years_betore..f. 'entirely recovered from the tragic finale. Irene never recovered, but buried herself in•s convent, and still renatitiff there, the victim of only a joke"' , • Breathe through the „ pOse and_ keep the mouth . ehui when you, read, Whan'yeiiwriie, When. you liken, whoa you are in,pain, when you are . ,walking,, When you are when.you are ridirir,,:and by - all MOO, When you,arn4n7y, There persdain goer ety,hut wlio will rt td'and 'acknowledge im provement in healtl dud enjoyment for even a temporary attention to; his Some pue,saya that ( the: . rat weeping .

General Jackson said that after he i• • I corn--e:" ' boats he made What he had told them Was his last appeal and•at the last moment they consented:le take the Treasury notes He paused at this part of the statement until Mr Guthrie asked him what he intended to do in ease of persistent refusal. The old patri ot replied that he "would have ordered the two soldiers armed with axes to cut the ca bles and the fellows on board might have floated to hell or Texas,' he would not have cared which.' He said,'"A man who would not trust his eouatry when engageti in war was not fir to live'. We heartily say amen to Old Elickory's patriotic \sentiment. We regret that he is not here now to pack 'un patriotic currency ganiblers on flatboats find float them to unknown shores. How the Deiril Lost I • •ipg is too good to be lost : A oung man who'ardently desired wealth, was visited by his Satanic Majesty, who tempted him to promise his soul for eterni ty it; he could be supplied on this earth with all the money ,he could use. The bargain was concluded; the devil was to supply the money, and was at last to have the soul un less-the young marretruid - spend-more money than the devil could furnish. Years passed away; the man married, was extravagant in his living, built palades, speculated widely, lost and 'gave away fortunes abd yet his cof fers were always full. He turnea politician and bribed his way to power and fame, with out reducing his 'pile' of gold. lie became a 'filibuster, and fitted out ships and armies but his banker honored all his drafts. lie went to St Paul to liveoand paid the usual rates of interest for all the money he could 'borrow; but though the devil made wry fa ces when be came to pay the bills, yet they were all paid. One expedient. after another failed; thit devil counted the . time, only two years, that he must wait for the soul, and mocked the effort of the dispaiiing man.— One more trial was relolved upon—the man started a newspaper! 'r,he devil growled at the bill at' the end of e first quarter, was savage in six menths, lancholy in nine, and hroke—'dead broko'—:ltt the end of the year.

The President hesitates not to illustrate his sentences 'with figures from that ' which• he is: certain' he understands. Whatever may be said of the homeliness of some of his phra ses it has never been alleg ed that their mean ie.. is doubtful.

He knew from his early experience, in the rail splitting business that he Who' accom plished most.with the knotty oaks Must not expend his strength in frantic efforts to clear up a whole forest in a season. The gnarled and knotty, wood yields to constant "pegging away.". Rash and violent strokes effect lit-• tle, rind too often ruin the nee and leave the woodman exhausted and spent. But the den , sest forest and the knottiest-oaks will yield at last before the calm, patient and steady blows of the axemen, who, undaunted and persevering, wastes not his:strength in mad efforts, dulls not his axe in' ill direetedoblows, but still keeps pegging away—pegging away. This nation, like youth ardent-and—over confident, was too apt, thee; disaster to sink into gloom and despondency. It owes much to the patient man who has taught it the art and the result of pegging away. To that we owe the bright prospect now before us, We shall not forget the many hours of dedpon -dency which have gone before—the gloomy days of the first Bull Run—the long, dark reign Of McClellan — disaster iri Tetras—oti Red Ever—on the Rappahannock--ineom potency of Generals—Seymour's machina tions—cabals in the Northwest—trouble ev erywhere.

Ac cording to their philosophy we should have given ap . the knotty , problem.. one—tio- r • -thice-years_ago—But back to old England's shores, with'every steamer, goes the echo of our incessant blows, and what is yet mote stirprising and unaccountable, the reverher: ations grow louder and louder, until the whole world is filled with the appallitig din.
