The Gcutlc Nurse.
Tho finyar of disease had placed
Its seal upon my broiv;
And deep the lines that fingsr traced,
Though all ore vanished now :
And weariness hung o'er my bed,
Aud pain w»i hovriag nigh,
While dreary visions, wild and dread,
Woke many a deep-drawn sigh. -
Sly sleep!—oh, how unlike tbe sleep
Of childhood's early days,
When yet 1 had not leani'd to weep.
Or trod life's weary ways;
When calm aud sweet, os evening spread
Her dusky wing o'er earth,
Sleep came, with soft elastic tread,
And hush'd wy gladsome mirth.
I woke from sleep, and on my view,
There fell a vision bright,
Of one, with h-art of kindness true,
Who watch’d o'er me that night:
And Pity’s voice fell on mine ear,
With tones to sweet and law,
it sooth-d my pain, ami bade me bear,
That gentle music Dow.
I’ve seen that light and graceful forat
While floating in the dance :
I've seen that dark and laughing eye,
When brilliant was its glance ;
I've heard that voice, wheu swelling cu?
In music wild and sweet;
I've heard her light guitar's deep tones.
With thrilling cadence meet.
I've seen those dark and wavy locks,
Shading her ample brow,
And gazed upon her till I loved-.
Not as I lovo her now.
for yet 1 see her, as she sat
Beside my couch of pain.
And patieut watch'd till morning shell
Her beams o'er eartli again.
That gcntlohand; I feel it yet,
As when it bath'd my brow,
Aud all her kindness and her care,
Are present with me now
Ob, may a heavenly light e'er guide
Her beauty and her youth;
And keep her that her steps ne'er slide,
From joy, and peace, and truth.

NO-CHILDKD AND MAN Y-CHILDED.
One cannot well step over a threshold, without be
ing able to distinguish whether it beloug to a bouse
of no children or of many children. There is a prim
ness and ueatuess about the childless mansion, which
is entirely wanting iu the mauy-chlltKd. From the steps
outside tbe dour, to the innermost penetralia, all is chili
and cleanly decot um. The severest duties ofthe lady
consist iu sligtit repairs of slight derangements ol the
domestic economy; there-adjustineiitoi rufikdcrinnb
cloths after morning calls, the replacing of table covers
after meals, or the removal, front half-worshipped
chimney ornaments, of single particles of dust which
'• have no business there.” If the house were some
thing kept under a glass case, it could hardly pre
serve a more toy-like precision of outline, or a more
perfect exemption from all disturbiug circumstances,
ilverlasting silence reigns—or is broken only by
founds which otherwise wouluuotbe heard, such as
he footfall ofthe solitary utaid iu a distant kitchen, or
he flutter ofthe left wiug of a favorite canary dipped
uto his watfer-glass. Every thing which tends to de
rangement or to ttoisei*banished. Coal merchentserc f
given up if their wares have tho least propensity to
cither dust or cracking. The cat’s infant family are
regularly dismissed as soon as they can properly leave
the maternal bosom. The visit of a friend’s children is
dreaded as a descent of caterans tipou the peaceful
Lennox was dreaded of old; and t he damage which a
few minutes of them will occasion, although imper-
cepfible to ordinary eyes, is not repaired iu less than
half a day. In entering such a house, the tnind is
oppressed with a sense of awful propriety. The ty
ranny of unimpeachable cleanliness come* upon the
heart like hyperborean gales. One feels like the dove
of Noah, as if there were no place to set whereon one’s
foot. You pass awe-struck among the reflections of
glittering furni.ure, and fear to offeud chairs and so
fas by sitting down upon them. The very coal-scuttle
has a kind of touch-me-not air about it, while the neat
ly gilded brush bosido the bell-pull seems to plume it
self much more upon its service towards the ornamen-
tol than the useful. Twenty years may have elapsed
since the sitting up of the house, but every article
still seems fresh from the shop of the upholsterer.
The fine edge, the primeval shine, the Eden inno
cence of every thing, is still there.
In a domain thus sacred from disturbance and al
most from use, the worthy couple arc stuck up like
statues in shrines. The lady sits in a perpetual accu
racy of attire hr a window or by fireside—sewing at
one endless seam, or engaged on some volume, from
a circulating library which is on the point of declaring
itself exhausted. Her husband occupies au opposite
chair, like a companion picture, with perhaps the
next ensuing volume of the novel His feet are rais
ed upon the fender; the l.ght.s properly “rrangedat, known auc(i pers01ls fll!Iv three . and . twe -nty ere , fc

allowed to those families which r.re n lie wed to escape
irom nursery domination. A little fellow one day said
complainittgly to his matuma, *t This is not a' nice
house; iu hum’s we cau cut the sofas and pull out tho .
hair; but here we cau’tget any fun at all.” Mate tun.
in this case, had been something strict in her disci
pliuo : the state of matters in Sam’s may be imagired.
But iu genera! there is something ia children \\ ldcli
defies die best regulations. They cannot move,
breathe, or look, without doing mischief. Order Hies
bofore tliero liiCes; ruin follows their steps. In the
average *fhouses, symptoms of their existence may
be seen upon tho walls, the floor, every article offur-
iiituro—the whole, after a few years, acquire a kind of
dimness, as if of orer-handlieg. All is rough and
round. Iustcad of die everlasting neatness and unim
peachable cleanliness of the no-ch Ided mansion, the
utmost that can be expected is a temporary and par
tial good order—confined perhaps to asiugle room and
for an hour at a time—a gallant but unavailing rally
against the prevailing influences. It is usually ut an
early period ofthe forenoon that the domestic powers
thus make head against the enemy. At any later'pe
riod all is in vain. The fairest provinces of the em
pire are nvei run by the Validation invasion, and before
evening there is a detritus of ruin in every corner,,
composed of broken toys, sofa pillows, footstools, and
all other things capable of being moved or destroyed.
Every house is of course un-childed before it is inany-
childed. Every lady has to look back upon a period
when she delighted in having tilings neat about her.
She had then centinelled her vestibule with handsome
statues, bad vases placed upon the ground, and bijou
terie strewed upon the tables. But in time all this
was seen to be mere vanity and vexation. She be
came aware that there was a kind of browsing line,
beneath which no small article was safe. She cam>*
to wish that even the chairs could be hung high along-
the walls, as in an upholsterer’s warehcom, in order
that they might be out of harm’s way. Like a belie
walking home from a gay party in the'midnight storm,
site has now reefed in every prominent finery and is
content to scud along through existence the bc-t way
she can. Little more than the wreck of the former
self of the house remains, and her only hope is. that,
when this piti css pelting is over, she may prevail up-
I on Mr. Balderstone to ftiruish anew, so that they may
spend their latter days in the same agreeable circinm*
stances which they knew at the outset.
Yet even now it is with no shade of discontent the4
either of the worthy pair regard tbe wreck and ruin
produced by tboir children. While full of affected
queriilousncss respecting the noise, the confusion, and'
the mischief, they secretly sympathise in that very ex
cess of youthful vitality which leads to all that they
complain of. To be besieged, climbed, kissed, and
torn to pieces by the wildest and ino^t riotous of young
rogues—to be sprawled over by unreflecting little
misses—to see the whole parlor put in disorder by
blind-man’s-buff—are mireries which Mr. and Mrs-
Bulderstonc endure with the greatest possible satis
faction. In early morn the chatter of little voices is
beard breaking the silence of night, and tho primeval"
1 parents of the human race could not have more enjoy
ed the first burst of the feathered orchestra of Para
dise. than do onr pair enjoy those sounds, which tell
them that God bas vouchsafed to their darlings a new
day of health. From that time there is not a minute
throughout the whole day that can properly be cal
led quiet: but what although it be so ? The voices of
children, iu general, speak either of happiness which
it is delightful to contemplate, or of tvoes which it is
delightful to soothe Little reason is there to pity the
mother who spends her day chiefly in the midst of her
blooming and playful progeny. At length comes shut
of eve, which, in sweeping all away to their dream
less pillows, and reducing the house once more tn
silence, 'eaves room for ad'Uibt whether, by its peace,
it has brought a relief or taken away a pleasure.
As the youngsters advance in age, the house as
sumes characteristics somewhat different. You may
no longeron opening a sideboard drawer in the dark
fora Knife or a spoon, find your fingers entangled in
the mane of a vvondea horse minus the trunk and legs;
but you will perhaps find your most valued books
scribbled with drawings and 'craps of school know
ledge. and be obliged to give tip a dressing-room that
it may serve for a study to the boy*. Then is the time
for back-greens being stocked with rabbits ; and pia-
uo-fortrs spoiled by drumming misses. If, when the
eldest begin to verge upon maturity, there should be
others at all the inferior stages of existence, how vast
a system docs tho household become I The young
meu bring their friends as they cal! them, and 1 the
young ladies bring their boarding-school companions.
Bovs of ten bring boys of ten. and even misses of four
and five have similar mih-es introduced from next
door to play with them. It is a great era when mas
ter Thomas or Miss Eliza can veuture to descend with
these acquaintances from frowsy back rooms where
hitherto they have observed a modest obscurity, to the
full blaze of the dining-room, where father and mother
sit in state. Happy, in this respect, are the eldest of
the family. There is an eagerness on the par) of pa
rents to receive their first-born info the pale of man
hood and womanhood. It awakens a new feeling in
the parental bosom. Accordingly the intrusion of a
few dashing young beans aud smart school misses is
rather liked than otherwise. But when the younger
branches grow up, they not only want the advantage
of this novel feeling on tho part of their parents, but
have n fight with their elder brothers and sister^ to
establish their claim to adolescence. When far past
the age at which the eldest were treated as men and
women, they are still considered as mere boys and
girls. Their pretensions to long-skirted coats and pro
per young lndv-like dresses are scouted arid the friends
brought by them to the house ate condemned to the
upper bed-room*, although in reality better people
than those who some time ago were admitted to tho
honors of the parlor. The struggle which second and
third children have to go through, before they are ac
cepted as meu and women hy the first, is worse than
a family dispute for the throne of Turkey. We have

Their meals consist of little dishes not often cijanged—
roasts so small :ts lo have lost all sap, mutton chops,
cutlets, and other fiddle-faddles. If they venture upon
any ordinary dish, they have to sit down with cold mo
notony for a week, which is not half elapsed till they
wish that they could he conscientiously relieved liout
it, either hy plunder or putrescence. The lady makes
It her chiefbusiuess to coddle tbe gentleman, and the
gentleman makes it his chief business to take care of
the lady. There is always one pair of his spare shoes
perfectly dried hy the side of the fire. In their hearts
they pine beyond all that could be confessed for chil
dren, but invariably profess to themselves and to each
other, that they infinitely prefer the serene comfort
whicii they at present enjoy, and dread the trouble* of
rearing an iulaut.—They are nevertheless great theo
retical educators. They perceive aud discu.-s every
fault in the up-bringing of every child of every family
oftheir acquaintance, describe one set of patents as
too severe, another as loo gentic, und a third as having
no system at all, and think how beautifully they could
correct all the errors, if thjy had anything to say in
the matter. In the meantime, while railing at their
friend. Mrs. Easy, for spoiling Tom and Fanny, they
assiduously pamper their own lapdog Pinch, till the
little creature arrives at an aggravation of fat and mis
chief intolerable to ail but themselves. When Mrs.
Greenlield loses a child, and is absorbed in grief for
the event, our worthy pair severely reprehend con
duct so irrational, and are clear that no mother is jus
tifiable in neglecting the living out of grief for the dead.
Nextweek Pinch dies, and so greatare the distressand
derangement which follow, that for three davs the gen
tleman has to wear unaired slippers, and the lady
thinks of a jaunt to Paris, as the only means of recov
ering her spirits.
Very different is the abode of the many-childed. Il
the tale is not told by a group of merry little faces in

There are ofcourse mansions in which the younger

To rear a numerous progeny through all the various
stages, and finally set them forward ill life, is unques
tionably a tusk of considerable difficulty, and attended
with no small degree of anxiety. Yet. if circum
stances bo not unfavorable, so as to produce real trou
ble and sorrow, there can be no doubt that the effect of
such a duty upon the mind is highly beneficial. The
domestic relations are of immense importance in de
veloping andkeoping awake tho affections We can
scarcely ho afflicted with hardness of heart towards
any benign sentiment, if we havo known what it was
to bo brother, husband, and father. \Vomen are po-
culiarlj - liaideto he improved in general humanity by
having children. When a mother of young infants
passes a little child which has been left neglected upon
the street, she cannot rest till she has seen it attended
to; the no-nhildcd would have never remurked the cir
cumstance. When the mother of a set of roistering
boys passes a merry group of the same order, she is
almost sorry that decorum will not uilow berto linger
beside them, to survey their sports, and bless them
with a mother’s blessing. If, advanced in life, she has
seen some of her sons leave her for distant climes,
should hr r noth ho crossed by the homeless vagrant,
who looks, but docs not speak, a petition, she thinks
that there may have been, or still may be some one to
whom lie is ns interesting ns her own child is to her
or that her own child mu* one day appear to some o-
ther mother as this wretch now appears to her and
she extend* to him the hand of melting charity.
Thus does Nature, by an abundant flow of ber finest
sensations, remunerate those whom she has called up
on to perform what many calculating people would
■consider a disproportionate share of her duties.
