Then Katie poured into tho sympathis ing cur of hor littlo friend nil her troubles, mid finished by saying, “I could not bear to find it only a dream; I feel as If I must sen Charley once nlorc. ” “Whero do you think ho Isf” asked Belle. “ In honven, I know,” replied Katie, “ and mother says ho cannot come to us, but we eau go to him sometime;” and her sobs broke out afresh. “ Why don’t you go to him.how?” cried Bi'llc. “ X don’t know the wily,” said Katie.— “I was very sick when tboy took him away In the littlo cuflhi, and I don’t know whero they Went.” “Areyou-pure ho went to heaven?” asked Belle, eagerly. “ Oh, I kuotvtt,” said Kutio. “Then,” said impulsive littlo Belle, ‘-‘1 con show you tho way—I saw where they put your little brother,” 'At this announcement tho glad light in Katie's tearful eye was beautiful to be hold. “ Well, will you show me, Bello—now, this very afternoon ?” “ Yi s, indeed,” cried Belli', nnd with clasped hands, unmindful of tho gather ing gloom, (rose little pilgrims set forth on IheTr jpUrn'oy to heaven. Once on the way, a doubt oppressed lit tlo Belle. t ‘ Oil,” said Katie, withswcotnssurancc, “howClmrley would run to open the door,’. mid her check flushed with nutlcipatlon. “ Do you suppose Charley Is very hap py?” urged Belle. ” Very,” said Katie emphatically. “ And wlin t docs lie do all the time?” “ Plays with the angels with such love ly wings,” cried Kntie, with great anima tion. “ And they pick up the stars that lie all over the floor of heaven, and the rainbow, I suppose they keep them up all summer; and ohl Charley use to love rainbows. lie once cried because'—' “ Dear me,” said Belle, interrupting her in great dismay, “It rains, Katie, and tve■ are ever so far from home; what shall we do?” “ But we are almost to heaven, ain't we? T,ot us hurry anil-go in there. ” “ Yes,” said Belle, “ I see the door.” “ "Where? where?” cried Katie, breath lessly. “There!” responded little Belle, point ing to tile little rising ground ami iron door of tho village vault. “ Oh!” faltered Katie, with disappoint ment, “ is that heaven? Oh, Belle, it is like n grent cave!” and hor little Hpquiv- crcd sadly. “Why,” said Belle, “ that is where they took your brother—tho very place—nnd you said he hnd gone to heaven; besides,” continued she, brightening, " when we get through tho little dark door, it may be nil beautiful nnd bright on tho other side," “Perhaps it is,” said Katie, more hope fully. But now largo rain drops begnn to fall vesy fast, and tho thunder storm, in all its sublimity, burst upon the little travelers. The burdened west seemed gleaming like an ocean of flame, nnd tho floor of heaven resounded to the solemn tread of tile mighty thunder. Still llio little chil dren, with clnsped hands anil pale lips, pressed on, and tho angels who “do al ways behold the face of our Father,” watched over them lovingly, arid they walked securely In the heavenly company. At last tho busy, pattering feet reached tho gloomy entrance, and Katie’s sweet, hopeful lips were pressed close to the door. “ Knock,” cried Belle; and with all her strength, Katie did knock, nnd a hollow echo was all hor reply, while the dead form within heeded not the call froin fresh, young, hopoful lips; and thelittlebrother, with closed oyes nnd pnlo, clftspcd hands, heard not the imploring cry— “Charley, dear Charley, It is your sis ter—your own sweet Katie; won’t you open the door?” “lie docs not hear you, Katie, it thun ders so,” said Belle;, “lot mb wait a little wldlo;” and they waited for the thunder to cense. Soon there was ft lull In tho storm, and again Katie, strong in fivitli, knocked at the dreary door, and her lov ing cry, “ Charley; dear Charley,” echoed sadly back. “Do you hear anything?” asked Belle, with trembling lips; “ Is ho comlbg?” “No,’’replied Katie; “I thought I once heard his littlo feet, but It was only tho rain.” “Perhaps,” suggested Belle, with large; Imaginative eyes, “jwrlmps ho Is playing with the angels ft great way off, In n beau tiful garden." ' “Ohl’* sobbed Kntlo, "I hope he will not love the little nngols more than me.” “Knock once more—Just once,’’ whis pered Bollo. With Wavering fliltli, again tho littlo soft hand pleaded for entrance, and the tremulous voice cried piteously— “ Charley, darling, dear, sweet brother, please open tho door to your own poor Ka tie. Don't lovo tho littlo angels better than mo. Oh, Charleyl Charloyl” She threw herself upon tho wot ground, and sobbed In an agony of grief alid dis appointment. “Katie,’’snld Belle, half frightened at this outburst, “lot us go homo now, and como again to-morrow and try.” “No,” said Katlo, with touching hope lessness, “ I shall novor come again. Let Us go.” She rose without nnothej; sob or fresh tear even upon the tret check; but tho grieved expression of tho sweet, childish month was plMbil to behold. Back again over tho dreary way went Katie nnd Belle. Idttlc shoes wet, little dresses dripping, littlo bends bent like dew-laden flowers, little hearts very heavy. At Kntlo’s door stood her anxious motle Tho AllKnl or the House. ’TlssnW that over round ont path Tito u’Moen uuguls stray, That glvo uttegnTpl ilnmmsliy night or, peering through shadows for her darl- j| a, ' a “"Wued by tho arms, nnd with ode cry, that spoke all the ! roaUcl . t | 10 most knowledge, aud takes agony of bitter doubt that had crept unto from him tho least time. her confiding heart, exclaimed “ Oh, mother, I have been knocking at the door of Heaven', and- Charley would not let me In.” Dear, grieved, little Katie, rcfhsing to be comforted in this thy first great sorrow,’ it may bo that ere tho violets come again, God’s hand will beckon unnwarcs, anif with a better guide thou shaft Indeed find tho door of heaven. Then knock, little pilgrim, and. thou slmlt lie heard amid the •halleluiahs of tho heavenly choirs.

Some days ago tho Npw York Tribune, ill commenting on tho nctlon of the Geor gia Legislature hi regard to the Fifteenth Amendment, indulged in somo nspcraluns of Hon.

I did, about tho first of December, call on Scnntur Sherman, to request him to pre sent my urcdcnUuls to the Senate.

To quell the prido even of the greatest, wo should rellcct how much more we owe to others tlian to oursolyes.

As for my “telegraphing solemnly,” or in any vein, what consequences were like ly to ensue to my oolleaguo and to myself by the refusal oi the Legislature to adopt theamendmeut—and what Congress would do with Georgia, nnd how soon It would act, I will merely say; I have not ventured to predict tho action of Congress lu regard to Georgia, or anything else. I have my opinion iis to tlio proper course to lie pur sued by Congress to secure the best Inter ests' of both government and people, but while the present circumstances exist, I carinot expect it to influence Others, arid therefore do not urge If Be'speotfully ninxfm*.
