Charlie; and the Robin's: Song
One Bummer morning early,
When the dew was bright ' to see,
Our dark-eyed iittle,Obarlia
Stood by Ms mother!sitnee.
And he,heard a robin singing
In a tree, so tall and high ;
On the topmeatlbotigh 'twas•swinging,
Away up in the sky.
ulaaintitit; tbe robin's praying,
I the-very tree-top there'.
Gloryl Glory ! it is saying,
'And that is all its prayer.
But'God will surely hear him,
And the angels standing by,
' For God. is very near him,
Away up in the aky."
"My child ! God is no nearer •
To the robin on the tree,
And does not hear him clearer
'Than he does:you and me.
For I .llo,llears the angels harping,
In stm.bright glory dressed,
And4he little birdlings chirping
'Doirnin their leafy neat."
. (4 qtattima, if you shoul'd hide me
'Awai down in the daik,
And leave no lamp, beside me,
Would God then have to hark ?
And if I whisper lowly,•
All covered in my bed,
Do you think that Jesus holy
'Would knoW what 'tyros I said ?"
"141 y darling little diaper,
t ~Gotl'saight ii.nevor dim;
The est; trlotatest Mhisper
Is always close to him."
•
Now the robin's song was.fdling
The child's soul full of bliss ;
The "very airwas trilling, .
When his mimma . told him this.
And he wished, in childish craving,
,For the , ,robin's wings, to fly,
To sing on tree-tops waving,

A correspondent of The'independent in
St. Louis, No :,*communicates the following
story as strictly true :
A few evenings since, two little, boys,
about five years old, were walkiig together
along.one'of the fashionable streets of our
city. As they were passing a private resi
dence they stopped, attracted by the roses
and honeysuckles that filled the small front
yard with fragrance and beauty. •
After looking for some minutes silently
.and wistfully, the following dialob e took
place : •
Freddy," 0 what beautiful flowers :"
Willie.---" flow I wish we had some of
them."
Freddy.—" But it would 'be wrong to
take them."
There are so many of them,
and they are so pretty. Do you think it
'would be Wrong to take just one 7"
Freddy.—" Yes; it -would:be very wick
ed."
Irfilie.—s‘ Yee -, it would dome let's
go away."
During all this time Mrs. B the
lady of the house, was standing, unseen by
the boys, looking through the closed blinds,
and attentively listening to the conversa:
tion. When the last remark was made, she
threw open the blinds, her eyes brimming
with tears, and cried out:
"You dear noble boys, come here, and
you shall hive , every flower in the yard.
Beautiful as are the flowers, they are not
to, be compared to the beauty of your hon
est•hearts. Your mothers should be proud'
of you, and you of them. If either of
you should ever be President of the United
States, as I wish you `both may be, may
you never forget how you resisted this
temptation:" And she literally , strifkped
every rose and honeysuckle from the bushes,
and sent the boys away with their arms full
of lowers, ,aod.,with a thousand blessings
on their heads. .

—:-%Child at Horn
The Prince of - Wales in. Pittsburgh, and
Crossing the Mountains.
Pennsylvanians will feel some curiosity
in knowing how the Prince enjoyed his
visit in their State,, and what the ,newspa
per-man of his company says of them.
The following is from the London Times.
It will likely induce European travellers to
lay our railroad
llAualsriußG, October 2. * * * *
Pittsburgh was •reached in the night.
There was an immense crowd waiting to
See " the Prince," as a matter of course,
who escorted him rather boisterously up to
the handsOme-and comfortable hotel where
he was to stay for the night, and which
takes its name from the banks of the, river
on which Pittsburgh is built, the l'ilorion
galiela House. This. was much inferior to
the Burnet House, at Cincinnati, in exter
nal appearance '
as it.was superior in real
Comfort, - which is saying a great deal in a'
few wards. From day break n'extmorning
there was` - :an immense - crowd round the
hotel, which for a time prevented all ve
hiCles coming to the door. At last, how
ever, the Prinee got into his, carriage, and
would have driveuround the town, but , for
the mistakenpoliteness of the Mayor, who
turned amt. companies, of the
militia to precede the cortege with their
bands,,at a.slow -march, .an arrangement to
which, as> a kind of State reception, his
Royal Highnes's was disinclined, arid which,
as affording' all Pittsburgh an opportunity
of keeping pace side by side withhis Royal
Highness, must have been in the highest
degree uncomfortable and embarrassing.
As with everything else, however, the
Prince hore this slow trying ordeal with
hundreds staring close into his face for
more l than an hour, and a half.with.a . mod
ept'„'!g,Crid courtesy,which won tbe
hearts of all-- 7 :certainly, I have never seen
his — frank, dignified, kindness appear to
greater advautaa•e than it did on this
occasion. In Pittsburgh, itself, of course,
thdre• was nothing-to see .'beyond a populous
thriving." coal and iron town," where the
air and:buildings;are blacker, though with
far less cause, than those of Sheffield, and
where the sooty nutil is paramount in all
the streets. 'At one o'clock the royal'train
started for Harrisburg, the band of the
fine 'company of militia playing "Jamais
je 'RC eoublierai," that beautiful Canadian
air with which all the British towns in
North. America. took leave of their 'royal
guest.
This day's journey of two hundred"; and
eighty - miles, was by the Pennsylvania
Centratllailway, not only through Penn
sylvania, but actually up and across the
Allegheny. Mountains; probably the most
difficult, route fora railway that• ever, was
attempted, and certainly one the scenery
of -which is •not to be equalled , from any
railway in the whole world.
For • a few milesthe land 'through Which
the line passes is neither very riali looking,
nor very picturesque, being merely fields
dotted with Autumn fbliaged trees, and
here and ,there.a huge black smoky mound
near the shafts of eoalpits. After passing
the great Cambria Iron Works,. however, :•
it soon Changes, and the track lies for
miles between mountains, and up a gorge,
clothed from base to summit with the
densest foliage. At anytime of the year
such a ravine would .be grandand beautiful,
but now, when tile coming Winter :has
roused the forest into a quick, warmlife of
color, and robed the mountains in'celestial
tints like rainbowa,, tliere was a solemn
gorgeousn,ess abont,the past that is utterly
indescribable.`

The eye ranged ovTr mountain and N,,,al
leY till the mind was saturated : -with :their

relief from the great scene-of tints to-look
upon the soft unfatinimable blue of the dis
tant raiiges, or watched,...the stripes of fleecy
mist gathering With the fall - of - night, dra
ping the hills-in. Silrei:Y Streaks, like the
haze over Titruer's . gorgeous. paintings.
This, was the entrance which begins the
ascent of the Allegheny Mountains, up
which and amid such scenes the train be
gan to wind. For long, long miles it
puffed, and %and. Istruggle(V painfully
upwards, and always shut in between these
masses of colored hills, stretching upwards
on each side like feathery tapestry.
At ,last 'the train emerged from the gor
geous defile near Kittanning mountain, half
way up• the summit of the Alleghenies,
.and nearly eighteen hundred feet above the
level of the , line at 'Pittsburgh.- What a

bright glow of the changing trees into a
rich maze of gentle color, so varied and yet
so equal in its : variations, that it seemed
like one grand-arabasque of nature; a vast,
pasture, which covered the Very mOuntains,
and shone up through the soft blue. mists
that gathered in the :valleys in. gleams of
color like jewels under' water. ' The sue
`had set; but its train, of rainbow light was
still brilliant-in the West, shedding a fare
well ferVer over the hills, and gliding down
the valleys in silent yellow beams, filling
them with an. atmosphere of gold. On 'one
side in the distance all was light and life,
and gorgeous rap ; while up
. in the East
remorseless night came crowding on, stifling
out the brilliant woodland with a dull gray
haze, and, making the mountains loom
heavily through the darkness. from the
heavens like clouds, of, a coming storm.
Close and sheer almve the train rose .a preci
pice, worried and riven into such fantastic
ruins as only the decay df 'mountains show

cies, draped with a silent moss, and here
and there long• creepers dropping softly
down from stone to stone in rills of vegeta
tion, rustling and waving gently with the
wind. Above the rock, like sunset clouds,
the forest rose in all its glory, •with festoons
of glowing weeds, like old 'torn 'banners,
hanging in melanchbly grandeur from their,
bonols with cluMps of underwodd and
sweet wildflowers still aloe with bloom, with
'humble, timid willows, bending in, law obei
sance before these severe lords of the woods;
the dark, tall, sembre, unchanging pine
maple and sumachs, swamp ash and hein
lock, oaks, sycamores,„larches, chestnuts,
and:. aspens, all crowded together 'every
form and hue of leaf, in every shape. of

vistas that wandered into darkness between

such.a death of sound upen the'scene i that
even the rush of the river, below came up,
hushed like: a fading breeze, .and it seemed:
as if all nature, with - the coming darkness,
had sunk to Slumber. There were no stars,
in the heavens, but littre.dots of light shone
out like spangles over the plain below,
marking where cottages stood, with here
and there a little constellation, showing
where a .rising Village straggled loosely
round in picturesque confusion.
The Prince saw the whole of this grand
:panorama-to the-very-best -.advantage; - for
at the commencement of, the, ascent.,he left
his'carriage; and" Piobeedid 'to the 'engine;
on which he rode' ill the whole of the Al-.

from the summit is twelve miles in-length,
always at so, steep an incline, that even
with the brakes on, the train-slides down
at almost full speed. Round Kittanning
Point there is one ineline.with two awfully
sudden curves, where in little more than a
mile the way descends ninety-six, feet.

At the pretty little village' of Altoona'
where there is „ one of the best railway'
hotels in the kingdom, the party' were to
have stopped for- dinner. This intention,
however, was abandoned, for it was night
'fall, and - Harrisburg was still some. one.hun

pushed on through -the wild innuntain road
called `""Jack's Jack's Narrows," amid 'tench •the

quite natural. Little things are, frequently •
treated with contempt, although in the ag

credulity. ::Because a fair stock of .fowls
can be bought for two dollars or so; they
are regarded as beneath the rank that en

" Farmers: usually sell • poultry alive.
Poulterers in town, on the other hand., kill
and pluck every sort of fowl for sale; so
that the purchaser;has it in his power:to
judge of the carcass, and if he buys an in
ferior-article at a high price, it must be his
own fault. It'is easy to judge of a- plucked
foid-, whether old` or young, by the state of
the I,egs. If a spur. is hard and the
scales on the legs rough, she is, old, whether
you seeher head or not., but the , head will
corroborate your 'observation' if the under
bill is so stiff that-you cannot bend it down,
'and the 'comb thick and rough. = A young

On the legs smooth, glossy, and fresh

claws tender and.short, the under-bill soft,
and the comb thin' and smooth. Any bld
hen-turkey has rough scales on the ley's

strong claws; a young one,,the reverse of
all these, marks. A. young grouse •or duck
is distinguished by .the tenderness‘' of the
skin under the wings, the strength of the
