these 18 HO DEATH.
There if no death ! The stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore;
And bright in Heaven’* jeweled crown
They shine for evermore.
There is no death ! The dust we tread
Shall change beneath the summer showers
To golden grain or mellow fruit,
Or rainbow tinted flower*.
The granite rocks disorganise
To feed the hungry moss they bear;
The forest leaves drink daily life
From out the viewless air
Thar* is no deatli! The leaves may full.
The leaves nifty fade and puss away;
They only wait, through wintry hours,
The coming of the May.
There is no death ! An angel form
Walks o’er the earth with silent tread ;
He bears our best loved things away,
then we call them “ dead.”
He leaves our hearts all desolate,
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers ;
Transplanted into bliss, they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The bird.like voice, whose joyous tones
Made glad these scenes of sin and strife,
Sings on an everlasting song
Amid the Me of H#eV
And where he sees a smile too bright,
Or heart too pure for taint and vice,
He bears it to that world of light,
To dwell in Paradise.
Born into that undying life,
They leave us but to come again;
With joy we welcome them—the same,
Except in slu and pain.
And ever near us, though nnseen,
The dear immortal spirits tread ;
For all the boundless Universe
Is life—Mere are no dead.

THE WISHING KING.
HOW IT BROUGHT GOOD BUCK TO ITS
OWNERS.
A young farmer, whoso farm did not
prosper particularly well, was sitting rest
ing on his plow for a moment as he wiped
his brow, when an old witch crept up to
him and said, “ Why do you toil so hard,
and all for nothing? Walk straight be
fore you for two days aud you will come
to a large fir tree, which stands alone,
towering over all other trees of the forest.
If you can but fell it your fortune is made.”
The farmer did not wait to be told twice,
but taking hit axe on his shoulder, started
on his way. After walking two days he
came to the tlr tree, aud immediately set
to work to fell it. Noon it toppled and
crashed to the earth, when from the top
brunches dropped a nest Containing two
eggs. The eggs rolled on the ground and
broke, as they broke forth came a young
eaglet from one and a small golden riug
from the other. The eaglet grew visibly,
till it reached half the height of a man,
shook its wings, as if to try them, raised
itself from the ground, and then cried,
•• You have released me! As token of my
gratitude, take the riug the other egg con
tained —it is a wishing ring. Tarn it on
your finger, speak your wish aloud, and it
will be immediately granted. But tlie
ring lias only one wish ; when that is ac
complished it will lose all power and be
come no more than any other ring. There
fore reflect well on what you wisii for, bo
that you may uol bare to repent after
ward.”
Having so spoken, the eagle rose high
into the air, swept, for some time, in wide
circles over the farmer's bead, and then,
like an arrow from a bow, shot swiftly to
ward the east. The furmer took the ring,
put it on his finger aud started homeward.
Toward evening he reached a town. At
the door of his shop a goldsmith stood
who bad many valuable rings for sale.
The farmer showed him his ring, aud
asked him about was the value of it.
“ Mere trumpery,” answered the gold
smith. The farmer laughed heartily, tell
ing the man it was a wishing ring, and of
more value than all tlie rings in bis
shop put together. Now the goldsmith
was a false, designing man, go he invited
the farmer to stay all night at his house,
saying : “It mull bring one good luck
te eatertain a man who is the possessor of
sueh a precious jewel, so pray remain With
me.” He accordingly entertained him
well with plenty of wine and civil words,
but when he went to sleep at night he
drew hi< ring stealthily from his finger
and put on it instead a common ring, quite
like it in appearance. Tlie next morning
the goldsmith could hardly wait, with any
degree of patience, till the farmer had ta
ken his departure. He uwoke him in the
early dawn, saying, •• You have so far to
go you had belter start early.” As soon
us the farmer was safe on his journey tlie
goldsmith went into hi* room, and having
closed the shutters, that lio one might see,
he bolted himself in, and, standing in the
middle of the room, and turning the ring
on his finger, exclaimed :
“I wish to have a hundred thousand
silver crowns immediately.”
Hardly were the words spoken when
bright five-shilling pieces began to rain
down from the ceiling. Shining silver
crowns poured down so fast and hard that
at last they began to beat him unmerciful
ly about the head and shoulders and arms.
Calling piteously for help, he tried to rush
to the door, but before he could reach it
and unbolt it he fell bleeding to the ground.
Still the rain of silver crowns did not
capse, und sipder the weight of it,
tlrt flooring gave ivay, apd the unfortunate
goldsmith-and bilrmoney'fell down into a
deep cellar. And still it rained on, till the
hundred thousand silver crowns were com
pleted, and .then ttys goldsmith lay dead in
his cellar, with the mass of money upon
him. Attracted at last by the noise, tiie
neighbors rushed to the spot, and,on find
ing the goldsmith dead under his money,
exclaimed, “It is really a great misfortune
when blessings rain down like cudgels.”
Then the heirs came and divided the spoil.
Meantime, the farmer went happily
home and showed the ring to his wife.
•• We shall never want for anything,
dear wife, he said ; “ cur fortune is made
But we must censider well what we must
wish for.”
The wife had a blight idea ready at
hand.
“ Let us wish ourselves some more
land,” said she ; “we have so little. There
is just a nice strip which stretches into
our field. Let us wish for that.”
“ That would never be worth while,”
replied the husband ; “ we liave ouly to
work well for a year, and have a moderate
•hare of good lack, and we can buy it for
ourselves."
And the man and his wife worked hard
for a whole year, and the harvest had
never been so plentiful us that autumn ; so
they were not only able to buy that strip
of land, but bad money to spare.
“ You see,” said the husband, •• the land
is ours and the wish too,”
Then the good woman thought it would
be a capital thing to wish themselves e
cow hud a horse,
“Wife,” answered the husband, again
clinking the surplus money in his pocket,
it would be folly to sacrifice our wish for
such a trttmpery tiling; we can get the
horse aud cow without that."
And, sure enough, in another year's
time, the horse and cow had been well
earned; so the man rubbed bis bands
cheerfully and said ;
“Another year has passed, and still the
with is ours, and yet we have all we want:
what good luck we have !”
The wife, however, began to grow im
patient, and tried seriously to induce her
husband to wish for something.
“ You are not like your old self,” the
said crossly-, “ formerly, you were always
grumbling aud complaining, and wishing
for all torts of things; and uow, when you
might have whatever you want, you toil
and work like a slave , are pleased with
everything, and let your best years slip by. I
You might be king, emperor, duke, a great
rich farmer, with loads of money, but no—
you can't make up your mind wliat to
choose."
i “ Pray do cease continually worrying
j and teasingjue,” cried the farmer; “we
j are both of us young and life is long. The
j ring contains but oue wish and that must
not be squandered. Who knows what
may happed Id us, When we might really
need the ring Y * Do *e wkuCfdr anything
now t Shies tbe ring bs been our*, have
we not so risen hi the world that all men
marvel at nil Bo do be sensible, and
| --7 -
amuse yonrsclf, if you like, by thinking
wliat we shall wish for.”
And so the matter was allowed to rest
for the present. It really seemed as if the
ring brought blessings on tlio house, for
barns and granaries grew fuller from year
to year, and, in tho epurso of time, the
poor farmer became a rich aud prosperous
one. He worked all day wiib his men as
if tlie whole world depended upon it; but
in the evening, when the vesper bell
sounded, he was always to bo seen sitting,
and well-to-do, at the threshold, to bo
wished “Good evening” by the passers by..
Now and then, when they wero quite
alone and am one near to hear, the woman
still reminded her husband of llio ring and
made til 1 sorts of propositions to him. He
always answered there was time euouglt
to think about it. and that the best ideas
always occurred to one lust. So she grad
ually fell into tlie way of mentioning it
less often, aud at last il rnrely happened
that the ring was over alluded to at all.
The farmer, it is true, turned the ring on
his finger twenty times a day uud oxai. ined
it closely, but took great care never' to ex
press ilK* slightest wish at the time. Andso
thirty uud forty years went by, aud the
farmer uud his wife grew old and their
hair snow white, uud still the wish re
mained uuspokeu. At last it pleased God
to show them a great mercy, and he took
them to himself both iu one night. Chil
dren and grand children stood weeping
around the colling, and, as one of them
tried to withdraw the ring from the dead
man's finger, his eldest son said :
•• Let our father take his ring to the
grave. There was some mystery about it.
Probably it was some love token, for our
mother often looked at the ring too ; per
haps she gave it to him when they were
both young.”
bo the old farmer .wag buried with the
ring which should have been a wishing
ring, but was not one, and yet had brought
as much good luck to the bouse as man
could desire. For it is strange, as regards
tbe true and false, that a bad thing can be
turned to better account in good bands,
than a good thing in bad.— Good Words
for the Young.
Another important discovery has just
beeu made in in tlie Esquiliue quarter of
Home. In clearing gome gound the re
mains of a house have becn.come on which
it is thought belonged to some rich citi
zen. Tbe walls are decorated with beau
tiful frescoes, tbe pavement is iu many
colored marbles, and a portion is in mosa

niche decorated with shell work, and a

IT is universally conceded that advertising is

conceded, by the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are tbe best medium for reaching

no abatement, to promote and preserve the in
terests and honor of the South.
The special features of tlie Morning News

be added.

and pleasant humor, and the epitome of Flori
da Allaire, will be continued duriug the year.—

for the past year, the most complete and relia
ble to be found in any Servunnah paper, and
the commercial columns will be full and accu
rate.
