•THE SB,i ht;h AFTER niT.
When first tlift dove, tfor :tnd wide*
Sk'Wmod tire i.’oik v ot rs o’t r,
I*d*eek beyond :he, heaving tide,
A green and peaceful shore.
No leafy bough, nor liie-liko thing,
Rose'mid ilie swelling iti -in—
The lone bird sought, withfalterinp wing,
The hallowed ark again.
And ever thus man's bran iinth traced
A lone and wear}’ round;
Hut never yet, ‘mid earth’s dark waste,
A resting place has fiund.
The prnce for which his spirit yearns
Is ever sought in vain.
Till like the dove it homeward turns,
And finds its God again.
THE EMIGRANT’S SAM RATH.
An Excellent Moral Story.
by h. Hastings wi:i,l>.
“ Will tlte Imliy dio, mntlirr V’
The inquirer was herself a child, and the
look of earnest cniiositv with which she
watched tier mother's face, to gather from
that the reply which the parent could not
speak, testified to thyt precocity of intelli
gence which is the lot of children of the
poor. Tons this union of matin ed precPp
lions with juvenile leal ores, is among the
most painful of the traits which distinguish
the offspring of those whose very step is a
■contention wttli.obstac’es—whose every ges
tme seems a buffet with the world. l>ul if
the fact* of the daughter was. painfully inter
esting, that of the mother was not less so.
Though still young, toil, anxiety and care,
and above all, grief, had mat keel her coun
tenance with evidences that young though
she might he in years, in experience she had
lived out a life time. Site was bending over
the cradle of an infant, whose quiet sleep
seemed the suspension of its little lining,—
Pale and -wan, she seemed scarce farther
from the grave than her infant charge, in
watching whose almost imperceptible
breathings, her whole attention was ab
sorbed.
“ Will little *is die nmc, mother 1” the
elder child again asked. Tlieia was n vol
ume of meaning in the tone in which the I
inquiry was put. It expressed the resigna
tion which nil in that l.ttle household had
made—the conviction that their well-belov
od infant companion was sick unto death ;
and all that Mary could hope in answer
was, that the moment of the departure of
the infant was not yet —not that instant. A
lialfari hour seemed a long f.iiure—a day
.-seemed years. Who that has watchSd the
life of a child wasting away has ever forgot
ten it? The unconscious sufferer, incapable
alike of appreciating its danger, of commu
nicating its feeling tntlie earnest affection
which surrounds its lied, the meekness of
endurance—the supplicating dances from
the eyes of a dying child ; oh! how deeply
do they move the heart. When man sinks
from his strength, or woman wastes from
her loveliness unto the h m Is of death, at
each stage of the disease the invalid cyn
communicate with attendant friends; at
each pauselike respite i:i the journey
through the gieat valley of the shadow,
adieus may be re-exchanged between those
who are to part at the grave, but to meet
again beyond it. But where the babe, in
pain, but unconscious from what cause or
what end, looks up imploringly to her', who,
though now powerless to aid, has hitherto
been its solace, tlte mother feels site could
willingly die with her child, if she could
make the sufferer understand that it isDenth ;
the death appointed to all—which is slowly,
but surely, stilling the pulses of its innocent
lieart.
So felt the young wife and mother—but
still she spoke not. No sound broke the
stillness of that house in the forest—no hum
of passengers, no notes of busy life, in dis
coid with the scene, mocked the silent grief
of the mother and sister of the dying child.
There was a melancholy oppositeness in
the solitude of the place and in the stem
natural simplicity without and within the
dwelling. The light vernal winds moved
tire branches of the pr imeval tree of the for
est which shaded the humble cabin, and as
the sun stole in between the open door
among the leaves the shadow of a lessor
branch of the tree trembled to and fro upon
the infant’s lips, as if it emblemed there the
flickering of its breath. This painfully
beautiful thought entertained the mindmf
The mother—and while she still dwelt upon
it, tho door was darkened—the poetic vision
was lost—and her husband and her brother
entered with a noiseless step. The loy had
plucked a violet in the hope of attracting
the dying child’s attention, lr had withered
in his hand as he walked, and while lie stood
over the couch, struck with the alteration
which in a few hours had taken place; 1 he let
it fall upon the pillow. The mother took it
up—she looked at the withered blossom of
the spring, and then at the withered flower
of her maternal hopes. Turning to her
husband, she sunk upon Iris neck and wept.
The child was dear to them. Exiled, in
part perhaps by a truant disposition, and that
reckless spirit of enterprise and adventure
■which is character istic of the Amer ican peo
ple, they had wandered far, before they had
pitched their tent. Accustomed in New
England to the comforts which industry
places within the reach of all—to the re
finement of mi rid which education creates;
to tho social habits which the institutions
ami manners of New England fosters—arid
above all, to the religious privileges which
bless tire descendants of those who sought a
new world to worship God after tireir own
consciences, tho Far West for many a weary
month seemed to them a solitude dreary in
deed—but, never’ qnito a solitude. They
had early learned that there is One from
whose presence no creature can he banish
ed ; and isolated as they weie in the migh
ty forest, tlte little family never flu got that
He lives, of whom it is written. *• If I take
the wings of the morning and dwell in the
utmost parts of tiro sea. even there shall
Thy hoiiil leud me, and Thy tight hand up
bold mo.”
To mother; to fullier ; to a‘-ter and to
IH* Irrothet vyhn had tu cnrnpttniiul them in
1 their wandering, tire birth of that child had I
■ been anew creation—it had consecrated |
, For them it new home, and created a tie
■ which had tmuni] them to the spot. ‘I ho ;
gift of God's mercy to them, it had been ‘
I as n ray of light, which made the desert I
blossom as the rose. All their hearts clung ,
I to the little strariget! every feeble opening )
of the precious bud, was watched—every |
glimmer of future intelligence in lire child |
j was to them as the earnest of becoming 1
I pet feet day. The smiles of its infantile j
joy had been the sun.-dime of their hearts, j
Tire tree before their door appeared green- j
; er and stronger w hen the little Jure crowded j
i its admiration in looking up, and vainly ;
I strove to grasp its branches —tho clearing j
; about the door was thought of only as little’ j
i Ellen’s play-ground—the. house,’ which j
j seemed before her birth dull and narrow I
and dark, was now a paradise on earth,
; since there the cherub first saw the day.—
* Any shelter would have seemed a palace to
, them in which the bahecould stand upright
i and learn to watk.
j And now the hand of dentil was on tlrese j
hopes; and silently they waited the fearful
consummation of his ivmk. Thought was
busy with bet father and mother—one sen
timent they held in common. But a week
before, had any one doubted in their pres
ence, that their cottage was a elvsium, each j
would have eloquently defended it—but
j now to each it seemed a cbarpnl home, and j
l they felt ns if the damp of death was on its ;
j wells. The mother's mind wandered back 1
1 to the home of her childhood ; to the pleas- j
j ant places which she had deserted for the j
| forest—to the cheerful house, and friends
j sympathising in her joy, when Mary, her |
eldest was horn. She counted over all the 1
kind faces which there.would have crowded j
around her in a c cene like this. She re- j
membered the village pastor, who would )
have been ready with his words of console- i
tion, words filly chosen, “ like apples of"gold,
in pictures of silver.” She recollected the
kind physician, and can we wonder if she
felt in her gtiof, that Iris skill might allevi
ate and postpone, if not avert the death |
which threatened her dearly beloved infant? *
T 1 ie father as lie mused, thought not of j
the past, hut of thofuturo. To him, as to
her, longer residence in that spot seemed
insupportable—blit while visuom of tho
home she hud left occupied the mind of the
mother, the father* looked forward to still j
i another home, as if by retreating from man- .
! kind, lie could remove from exposure to j
I disease and and ath. To neither could their !
i recently pleasant dwelling he tolerable— i
j with both, the place would seem to create
j none but melancholy associations. But lie
felt at last that it was his duty to struggle to
check repining* against God’s providence,
ami looking for aid to that source whence
alone support in all nlllictioti should he
sought, opened the sacred volume.
His eve fell on the history of ITagar'in
the desert. In alow but distinct tone ho
j read of the despair of the exile in the wil
j (femes*, and while their daughter was ex
piring far from human aid, the parents fell
with the Egyptian woman that they “ could
not see the death of the child,” irid like
I Ha gar they “lifted up their voices and
1 wept.” As he proceeded iti rending, ‘‘and
! the Angel of God called to Hngar out of
heaven, what nileth thee, Hagar ? Feat
not!” the (prick perception of the mother
caught a movement in the cradle. All flew
at once to the child’s side, prepared to wit
ness its last breath. But as to Hngar in the j
wilderness, so had God been merciful to !
them. The • risis wa.-g past —a gentle per- 1
spiration stood upon the sttflerei’s brow— I
its eyes opened, and u faint smile played
around itslips. Affection, ever ready to catch
at the slightest ground of hope, was this
tinr‘ not deceived. And the child now fell
again into a sleep, hut a sleep like that of
! welcome rest, instead of the feverish slum- I
j her which had before Itarrasscd their affec
| tion, the emigrant family knelt in joyful
! thanksgiving, 100 deep and heartfelt for loud
j words.
I Joyous was the following .Sabbath ; nor i
1 did the happy family forget that Being to
whom their gratitude was due for the great
mercy vouchsafed to tln-m. ‘1 he mother
had already renewed the youth of which
affliction had despoiled her, and little Ma
ry, as she leaned affectionately on her moth
er’s shoulder, smiled that awe mingled grat
itude which children as well as adults may
feel, though incapable of other expression
than the silent and natural workings of their
happy faces. With cheerful hearts they
worshipped Him who “ ilweilolh not in
, temples made with hands.” and heart and
j voice responded Amen! as the father of the
little household said with a sweet singer of
Brael, “O give thanks to the Lord, for he
is good ; and his mercy endureth forever.”
I ‘ m
Education. —*• Every hoy should have
his head, his heart, and Iris hand educated ;
. let this truth never he lot gotten.”
By the proper education of the head, he
will he taught what is good, and what is
• ! evil ; what is wise and what is foolish ; what
j is right ami what is wiong. By the proper
i education of his heart, he will ho taught to
love what is good, wise ami right, and to
’ hate what is evil, foolish and wrong ; and
1 by the proper education of bis band, he will
he enabled to supply his wants ; to add to
’ Iris comforts, arid to assist those that are
J around him.
The Ugliest object* of a good education
arc to reverence and obey God, and to Love
and serve mankind; every thing that helps !
, us in attaining these objects is of gieat val
-1 ue, ami every thing that hinders us is, com
• pnrativclv, worthless. When wisdom |
, reigns in tho head, and love in the heart, the i
j band is ever ready to do good, order and j
peace smile around, and sitr and sorrow are |
almost unknown.— Taunton Whig.
A Faithful Hoy. —A little boy in London, i
who attended a Sabbath school, having oc- )
casiott every Lotd's day to go through a cer
tain court, observed a shop always open, for
the sale of goods. Shocked nt sucli a profa
nation, he considered whether it was possi
ble for him to do anything to prevent it.—
He determined to leave a tract, on the
Lord's Day” ns h passed the shop in tlte ■
i course <>f the week, lie did so; ami no
the following Sabbath observed that the !
shop wras xtmi up. Surprised nt this, he
s <d ® p m m m : p m ajfij'-© m il il a is-n
stopped and considered whether tlr’s could j
he the effect of the tract he had left. He j
ventured to knoc.k gently at the door; when 1
a woman, within, thinking it was a custom- i
er, answered aloud, “ You can't hare any- \
thing; u-c don't sell on Sunday.” Encour
aged l\, whai h > had heard, the little bov
still begged for admittance ; when the wo
man, recollecting his voice, said, “ come in.
my dear little fellow ; it was you that left
the tract here against Sabbath-breaking, and
it alarmed me so, that I did not dare to
keep my shop open any longer, and I am
determined never to do so again while I
live.”
Lore. — lire true key of the universe is
Love. That levels al| inequalities ; make?
low the mountain and exalts the va’lev ; and
brings human beings of every age and eve
ry station into a state of brotherhood.—
“ The lion and the lamb shall lie down to
gether—the leopard with the kid; arid a
little child shall lead tln-m.” \\ lint unpre
judiced mail can look abroad in rhe world,
arid rot sea this? The sp) ndid sun, the
cerulean sky. the majestic trees, the green
earth, the thousand colors that enamei tire
mead, the silver stream in beauty composed
and serene, living in the endless flow of its
waters, all talk of what softens the heart,
and inspires affection and kindness to onr
disposition and feeling*. Has rot God
made man the crown of his works, and
stamped all his limbs wish majesty and
grace? And shall we neat with harshness
and indignity what God has chosen for the
living l enlpie 1 No—the man that is aus
tere to his brother mortals, is the true, the
practical atheist. * * * * , The thing
that most exalts arid illustrates man, is disin
terested affection. We are never so truly
what we are capable of being as when we
are ready to sacrifice ourselves for others,
and immolate our self love on the altar of
beneficence. There is nojoy like the joy
of a generous sentiment, to go about doing
good, to make it put; meat and our drink,
to promote the happiness of others, and dif
lirse confidence and love to every one with
in the reach of our influence.— Goodwin.
