COLUMBUS SUNDAY ENQUIRER: SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 25, 1877.
MAUUEI COBHA BHA8 l
[Dublin University Haguine ]
Maureen Cosha Dhas I
Yer tha purtevt lass
Ever walked on shoe leather or dbrove a boy mad;
For yonr wee little feet,
And yonr figure so swtet
Are too much for the basis af a poor Irish lad.
S Manreeu Ouba Dhast
When I see ye at Mass,
Saints above! I’jn afraid that it’s t’ye I pray;
An’ the crown o’ my hat.
When I look into that,
Has yer party face there, wid the dimples at play.
Mannca Oosha Dhas!
Thin the asedda ye cross,
To your father’s Bate cabin jnst under the hill.
Th’ divil, we’re tonld,
Tempted Tony of ould
Wyi a woman—Bedad! we’ve the pattern still.
Maureen Cosha Dbar! *
(Yer tb’sly little lass)
Wid yer “Top o’ th’ mornin’,” thin ye’ll go on yer
way,
But yer purty eyes dance
And ye gives me a glance
That sez, “Dinna agra! have ye nothn’t’ say!’
Winter la
life in LonionlMfins and ends late in
i tha day. Tha wary crooning sweepers do
i not tarn oat tfll ten e’oleek, and no newa-
boyn tonne the sleeping echoes of the
ntreeta at the on earthly hour of eight. Ev
erything enocaragcc man to lie in bed
late of a morning. If lie geta np at nine
[ he will tumble over the housemaid's pail
[ jnst outside the door, end even the doth
will not be laid for breakfast. The greet
“Weet End” doae not aeem to be fairly
op and about till three or four in the af
ternoon.
Towards six the streets axe crowded,
and Burlington arcade begins to put on
its liveliest face. At eight one goes to
dinner, and if there are more men than
ladies present you will gat away before
11:30. Thus, at this time of the year,
the Londoner gets along with an infini
tesimal quantity of-daylight, and it is
lucky for him that he is able to do ao, for
the sky is bidden by fogs and vapors, and
until one geta need to it, the heavy and
sombre air fills one with the blues and
gives rise to dismal presentiments of ap
proaching evil.
ALL MY LIFE LOX6.
All my lift long have my etepa beau attended,
Surely by One who regarded my ways;
Tenderly watched over, sweetly befriended.
Blessing* have followed my nights and my days,
Tear* have been quenched in the sunah ine and
gladnees,
Anthems of sorrow been turned into song;
Angels have guarded the gateway* of aadnesa,
Summer and winter—yea, all my life long.
All in the dark would I be and uncertain
Whither to go, but for One at my side,
Who from the future removes the dim curtain.
Seeing the glory to mortals denied.
Ho other friend could so patiently lead me,
Ho other friend prove so faithful and strong;
Pith augek’ food be has promised to feed me.
Who has befriended me all my life long.
He will not weary—O Lle-sed assurance!
Infinite lov* will the finite outlast!
Bor for my Heavenly Father’s endurance,
Into the depths of despair were I cast.
This is my star in a midnight of sorrow.
This it my refuge, my strength, and my song;
Earth is to-day, bat there’s heaven to-morrow,
And Jeans to be with me all my lift long.
Maureen Cosha Dhas!
I’ll not let ye pass
The next time I meet ye at fair or at wake;
Me peace ye destroy
An’ that’s hard on a boy
That ’ud fight a whole .faction and die for yer
sake!
Maureen Co?ha Dhas!
Wo’ll sit on the grass
Wid me arm roun’yer waist, and a tear in yer eye;
And ye’ll say, “Darlin’ Dennis!
Spake to Father Maginnis;
Share I’d rather do that, now, nor think that ye’d
-Ala.”
THE EMPTY i CRADLE:
Sad is the heart of the mother
Who sits by the lonely hearth,
Where never again the children
Shall waken their songs of mirth.
And still through the painful silence
She listens for voice and tread
Outside of the heart—there only
She knows that they are not dead!
Here is the desolate cradle,
The pillow so la'ely pressed,
But for away has the birdling
Flown from Its little nest.
Crooning the lullabies over,;
That once were her babe’s delight,
All through the misty spaces
She follows its upward flight.
Stiver Hsaatain Glories.
One look to the eastward toward son-
down or in the morning, will convince
everyone that the Canon bottoms and
deserts and valleys to the eye have at
some time been covered with water
through which the mountains and ranges
of hills have pricked their rooky peaks
and formed isles in the offing. At five
o’clock one evening lately, the tope of the
Sngar-loaf and the Coma range and the
crags and peaks this side were all afloat
on a rolling sea of mist, which filled the
places onoe occupied by the water. This
sea beat on the reefs beyond the Twenty-
six mile desert and the Sands of Death,
where glistening bones still mark the
overland trail for forty miles, and seemed
to die along the Humboldt, one hundred
and eighty miles away. It was a glorious
picture, and one which belongs to the
eastern side of Mount Davidson alone.—
Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise.
Little she thought of a moment
8o gloomy and sad as this
When close to her heart she gathered
Her child for its good-night kiss.
She should be tenderly cherished,
Never* grief should she know,
Wsalth, and the pride of a princess;
These would a mother bestow.
And this is the darling’s portion
In heaven—where she has fled;
By angels securely guarded,
By angels securely led,
Brooding in sorrowful silence
Over the empty nest,
Can you not see through the shadows
Why it Is all for the best?..
Better the heavenly kingdom.
Than riches of earthly crown;
Better the early morning .flight,
Than one when the sun is down;
Better an empty casket,
Than jewels besmirched with siu;
Safer than these without the fold
Are those that have entered in.
Harriet Martinean's First Appear
ance la JPrlnt.
From Her Autobiography.]
I suppose I must tell what that first
paper was, though I had much rather not,
for I am so heartily ashamed of the whole
business as never to have looked at the
article since the first flutter of it weut off.
It was on “Female Writers on Practical
Divinity.” I wrote away, in my abomin
able scrawl of those days, on foolscap
paper, feeling mightily like a fool all the
time. I told no one, and carried my ex
pensive packet to the Post Office myself,
to pay the postage. I took the letter V,
for my signature—I cannot at all remem
ber why. The time was very near the
end of the month. I had no definite ex
pectation that I should ever hear any
thing of my paper; and certainly did not
suppose it could be in the forthcoming
number. That number was sent in be
fore service time on a Sanday morning.
My heart may have been beating when I
laid hands on it: bat it thumped prodi
giously when I saw my article there, and
in the Notices to Correspondents, a re
quest to hear more from .V. of Norwich.
There is oertainly something entirely pe
culiar in the sensation of seeing one’s
self in print for the first time; the lines
bum themselves in upon the brain in a
way of whioh black ink is incapable in
any other mode. So I felt that day, when
I went about with my secret—I have said
what my eldest brother was to us—in
what reverence we held him. He was
just married, and he and his bride asked
me to return from chapel with them to
tea. After tea he said, ‘‘Come now, we
have had plenty of talk; I will read yon
something;” and he held oat bis hand for
the new Repository. After glancing at it,
he exclaimed, “They have got a new
hand here. 1 Listen.” After a paragraph,
he repeated, “Ah! this is anew hand; they
have had nothing so good for a long
while.” (It wonld be impossible to oon-
vey to any who do not know the Monthly
depositor of that day, how very small a
compliment this was.) I was silent, of
coarse. At the end of the first column
he exclaimed about the style, looking at
me in some wonder at my being as still
as a moose. Next (and well I remember
hiB tone, and thrill to it still) his words
were: “What a fine sentence this is!
Why, do yon not think so?” I mumbled
out, silily enough, that it did not seem
anything particular. “Then,” said he,
“you were not listening.” I will read it
again. There now!” As he still got
nothing out of me, he turned ronnd upon
me, as we sat aide by side on the sofa,
with, “Harriet, what is the matter with
yon? I never knew you so slow to praise
anything before.” I replied, in utter
oonfusion, “I never could baffle anybody.
The truth is, that paper is mine.” He
made no reply; read on in silence, and
spoke no more till I was on my feet to
oome away. He then laid his hand on
my shoulder and said gravely (calling me
“dear” for the first time,) “Now, dear,
leave to other women to make shirts and
dam stockings, and do you devote your
self to this?” I went home in a sort of
dream, so that the squares of the pave
ment seemed to float before my eyes.
That evening made me an authoress.
The Homan Face.
The countenance of every nation de
fines the characteristics of its people.
Every human face indicates the moral
training as well as the temperament and
the ruling traits of its owner, jnst as
much as every human form indicates the
quality and amonnt of its physical exer
cise. This is prowon by the variety of
human faces everywhere visible. Those
whose ljves have been given to physical
labor, on brightened by an education of
ideas, have always a stolid, stupid ex
pression, even while their limbs and mus
cles are splendidly developed. The more
savage people, the uglier they are in fa
cial development. The very features of
their faces are disfigured by violent and
nngoveraed passions People whose em
ployments are intellectual, have invaria
bly a large, clear gaze, a bright ontraying
expression, as if from an inward light
shining throogh a vase. Where a fine
organization and a deep sensibility ac
company the practice of intellectual pur
suits, often the features take on a trans
parent luminous look. Persons endowed
with, powerful sensibility, however plain
their features, always have moments of
absolute beauty.
Haldae Sands.
Never trust a man who has no enemies.
Life is sad indeed when it holds noth
ing to hope for.
Wives suffer more heartaches from neg
lect than'abose.
God loves those who love their fellow
beings.
It is not clothing but the heart that in
dicates a man’s real worth.
He cannot be a bad man who obeys the
laws of his oountry and of his God.
One dark minute may sweep away
what it took whole years to oheriah.
Don’t ask God to help the poor until
you have done something in that direct
tien yourself.
The early associations and teachings
form the characters of men and women.
A single breath of slander may wither
the fairest hopes of a life and render exs
istence worse than death.
It is a beautiful and comforting belief
to a bereaved heart that God takes our
best loved ones away to heaven that we
may strive the more earnestly to folibw
them.
The faith of a pure, loving woman is
the most sacred trust that can be given
and he who betrays it commits a greater
sin than he who takes a human life.
A man mast feel the need of a kind
word to appreciate it, and it is because
the gentle “God speed you” is so seldom
spoken to the unfortunate that the kind
ness which prompts it is usually wasted.
Rev. Leonard Woolsey Bacon, of Ge
neva, Switzerland, returns to his charge
that Old Catholicism is weak and destined
to go to pieces. He has been making in
vestigation in Switzerland, and reports as
the result that the Old Gatholich Church
es of Geneva are very poorly attended,
while the Ultramontane Churches are
filled. The same is true in many of the
country districts. The Old Catholics use
the money of the State, but never give
any of their own, and he has never
heard yet of their building a new chnrcb.
He counted the congregation Father Hy-
acinthe had, and it numbered less than
200, half of whom he believed to be
strangers and Protestants. Mr. Bacon
can find no element of strength in Father
Hyacinthe’s work.
Enlarged Joints.—If the cofferer from
sore and enlarged joints in the feet will
bathe the parts with iodide of ammonia
he can be speedily relieved.
How to Help a Calla to Bloom.—
My ealla now has four blossoms and one
bud. I have tried keeping it in a pot,
bat now have it in a tub about the size of
a common water pail. I- have dirt with
in three inches of the top, and keep it
filled with water, potting it on warm. The
calla is three feet high, blossoms measure
five and one-half by six inches.
To Pace Pictures and Glassware.—
Small framed pictures may be wrapped
in paper and packed In cheats of blankets,
quilte, Ac., taking oare that each picture
shall be qnite free from contact with, any
other. China, glass, bronze, Ac., should
be packed in hogsheads or crates by a
ehina-paoker. The sum paid to an expe
rienced packer will be far leas than the
loss by breakage in domestic packing.
Large pictures should be boxed if they
are to be transported any distance.
Packing a Library.—Books should be
paoked in small boxes, as they are so
heavy. Shoe-boxes are suitable for the
purpose. Books handsomely bound
shonld be wrapped singly In paper. Other
books can be packed, edge downward, as
closely as possible, and all interstices I* pointed them to a
THe True Example.
Every Christian ought to take Christ
for his example, and follow him to the
best of his ability. This being done, a
pure and holy life will be the result, and
the example set before others will be snch
as the Lord will approve. The person
who lives thus will be proud of the re-
oord he has made, and will bless God for
the privilege of living such a life. Thus
he will become more and more like the
divine Pattern as he nears the day, and
the heavenly home. The burdens of life
will be easier, the light of God’s truth
will shine brighter, and the earnest of
the heavenly joys will fill his heart with
unspeakable consolation and pleasure.
But how many Christians are following
this great Pattern. How many are living
pure and devoted lives? By my example
have I led any away from the Saviour ?
Have I led any to the intoxicating bowl,
and thns to a drunkard’s life, with all of
its woes and shame? Have I emboldened
any to continue in sin and disobedience?
It may be by my example some have ab
sented themselves from the assembly of
the saints, and thus have been led back
into the world. Or by my Ioobb, irre
ligious life, some may have looked upon
chistianity as a mockery, and gone into
infidelity. What has been my influence
in these things?
We tarn the piotnre over and examine
the other side just for a moment: Have
I led any to Christ by my example, both
in business and church-life? Have I led
any away from the intoxicating bowl, and
better life? Have I
stuffed with paper.
To Clean Zinc Bath Tubs.—Muriatic
acid mixed with one-fourth water; mix
this with whiting so that it can be applied
with a cloth; rob the zinc with the mix
ture; rinse with 'soft water.
To Clean Mats and Tidies Crocheted
with Yarn.—Lay in cold water fifteen
minntes, then rob plenty of white Caatile
soap on them; then rinse in clean suds;
hang up in the sun, and when nearly dry
press on underside, and they will look as
good as new.
Removing Tea Stains.—The stains will
eome oat of buff linen lanoh doth by
being pat in the boiler in a suds made of
two pailsfnl of water, a teacupful of soft
soap and a tablespoonful of the Magical
Mixture for washing. Let these ingre
dients boil together five minntes; then
put the boiler on the oorner of the range
and pat the doth in, stirring it aronnd,
bat not letting it boil. The color will
not be injarned in the least by this pro
cess.
‘Ike,” said Mm. Partington, “who’s
this Electoral Bill that they are making
nob a locomotion about in the House of
Beprahensibles? If he’s any relation to
thlt Florida fraud Cronin, I don’t wonder
that they doobt his voradty, and have a
tribulation of eommissionaries set on
him.” Dee replied that he run for Con
gress against Buffalo Bill, bnt the latter
having stopped to teach Morlacchi a new
step, had been distanced. Then the old
lady went to Bleep, and Ike gave the cat a
siU bath and a spoonful of boneset.
A lady said to a neighbor, whose hus
band was a book-keeper: “Your husband’s
ooonpation is s very sedentary one; he
most suffer for want of exercise.” “Oh,
I don’t know about that; he’s always
t»iHnfl about running np the columns,”
Win tha reply.
Hard Soap.—Four and one-half pounds
fat, one box of condensed lye, one half
pound sal-soda, 1 j pounds resin;
dissolve s pound can of lye in six quarts
of soft water; put the grease in a large
kettle, add two qnarts lye, two qnartB
soft water, and boil 30 minutes; then add
three quarts lye, little at a time, not to
stop the boiling, which oontinue from two
to five hours, or an til it becomes soap,
which may -be tasted by cooling in a
spoon. Then add the resin, broken quite
small, putting in rest of lye slowly, not j
to stop the boiling, which continues 30
minutes, then add one teeonpful of salt,
boil till the soap is separated from the
lye and strings. When oooled in s spoon
it should be Jiard, 1st it cool 15 minutes
than stir in tha malted sal-soda, stir thor
oughly, poor in moMs; wooden boxes or I
pails will answer; when oold out in pieces j
to dry.
told any of a Saviour’s dying love, and of
the mansions pure and bright in the bet
ter world? Have I encouraged any in
the divine life by being faithful myself jn
all my church relations? Have I kept my
promise in sustaining the canse of Christ
or have I failed to give of my means as
the Lord has prospered me?
The Lord knows just how all these
thiDga stand, and' how mneh true man
hood I have. He knows all my purposes,
and comprehends me altogether. He will
make allowance for all my foibles, but
will hold me accountable for all my sins.
If I have lived right, if I have kept my
self unspotted from the world, and walk
ed uprightly before God, my example
has been good, and will have a fine influ
ence for truth and trighteoosness. Let
every reader of these lines pat himself in
these balances, that he may weigh him
self and judge of his spirituality. Let no
one say, “I have no need of snch an ex
amination.” If you are following the
perfect Pattern, Christ, it will do yon no
harm, but if you are a wanderer from the
path of duty it may do you some good.
It is written to help some along the jour
ney of life, and aa we send it oat we pray
God’s blessings upon it “Watch ye
stand fast in the faith, qoit you like men,
be strong.”—St. Louis Christian.
