evas timid as a young fawn, and looked- about,

Ti ne soon finished his tour round the globe
hut Truth was fiu- behind; and as he had stvorn
never to wait for aify one, the old man turned
round to make another tour, and met bis
daughter about half way on her journey. As
long parted friends love to tell each other all
that has passed in their absence, they related
their adventures. •
“One daf,'* said Time, “I'met a wife whose
rash husband had turned Iter from his door and
divided tier.from her children, on account of
i .me unfounded jealous}’.—I would have staid
to make up the quarrel, and convinced -him of
his error, but Ik.-iewyou would soon comp .and
set all right. I hope thou didst make my-words
.good. Didst Hioa interfere in behalf of oqe of
thy sex!”
•‘Alas!’father, the poor abandoned wife wa$
dead before ! came.* ’ Grief and shame had
driven her to despair, nntHsho perished by her
own hands. ' .
What a pity! hut let us go on. Next I met
n Voting man who had been crossed in love in
consequence of calumnies that Iintl poisoned tin)
mind of tm mistress. little onward and I
encountered the young woman myself, «’ho
was pining away almost broken hearted at the
.yupposod infamy of her lover. I could not
stay to remedy tjicir so*rrovrs, but told them my
daughter Truth; was just behind, and would
soon tiring about a good understanding.
’Alas! alas!’ cried the maiden, with tears in
her ejfcy,‘I came too late. The'jontli had
become a sot and a gamester, and the. poor
girl had died of a broken heart.’
‘Thou.art designed, it seems, to bo always
too late. I wish thou would'go forward instead
. n£lnokiog all round, and feeling the way like a
blind man.’
Alft Slither, replied site, how should I-he as
sured of being always right if I did not first see
vviijch way I was goingl’
‘Next’ continued old Time, ‘I came into a
city where a man hail been condemned to death
tor a crime, of-which he was innocent*,! would
have Stahl to tlo him justice, hut my' moments
weyo too precious, and'I knew von were close
at hand. Didst thou save him from the gal
lows!”
•No—I did not arrive in season. I saw his
liodv hanging in chains; hut l did justice to
his memory. Better late than never, father!’
'Humph,* said the old man. ‘After this I
arrived in a country where the people were
preparing to murder their governor and all his
• fap tilv o:t account of a false report of his hav-
.iirg ttliempiod to betray them to their enemies.
I looked behind', and thought I saw thee advan
cing and beginning, as usual in a great hurry,
left it to the to dissipate the delusion.’
, *rgrievo to toll the, O father! that I was a
little too fate. The virtuous governor, with
all his family, laid just perished, and tho wick
ed < ilumniator was in his place. I told them
the true state of the case. But the lie had
done its work, and the consequences were irre
mediable.’
* I .wish to tho immortal Jove,’ cried Time,
*1 wish mv vonngest daughter fruth, would
keep pace with mv eldest daughter, lalsc-
■ hood.* *
‘How should T, my father, who never stjps.j
to see whither she is going, und 1 uni alwtjys
seeking tlie true path!’ . ’
•Proceeding onward,’ resit ml; d old 1 imo, 1
came to where the people .were fighting and
cutting throats; and burning each other, on
^uaconnt of a.dispute shout a word which each
pfrty interpreted differently. I.thought it .a
javat pity thcy could not find out which was
the fight meaning. Bat, e~ih! I« my daughter
is just behind and will clear itp the matter,,
nave not a moment to lose. I Jiopw thou dids.

‘Not altogether too late, father,’ replied the
virgin’hut ere I came, )>nc party had exter
minated the other; ;tnd wlimj I offered to tell
the conquerors the true meaning of tho word,
tle-v said they knew . it already as welj as I
did; I asked them how they canio by it;
they iins’.viTed by virtue of tho right ol the
stron-'est, and then left v,us shouting “Truth is

“Poorignorant creatures!” exclaimed rim 1 ’
