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.

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 his back; be is euuued with suppers and gown, and | ,i ,t._ i .k:.u . ,i l/j , • . f 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.

S.-ELLfS. knows no annoyance but that he has no annoyances. 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 the doorway, it is pretty broadly hinted when you fall over a tiney wheelbarrow which has been left in the lobby. Should no such danger lurk iayonr path, yon are sure, before advancing many steps, to see some traitof the presence of chiIJren—a parallelogram of corks designed to represent a house, with a doll seated .il it. a thrown away crust, or possibly a single marble —a small object, no doubt but one quite sufficient to establish the distinction, for long would it be ere such ii thing could be seen in the house ofthe no-childed There are ofcourse mansions in which the younger members of the family are kept too much apart to al low of such palpable symptoms of their existence in the very entrance—thoughoven in these, a shoe will some times be dropped through the staircase to lie upon the wax-cloth below, a sufficiently conspicuous betray al of the state of matters in the upper floor; or an oc casional burst of wild joy or equally wild grief will tell through the whole house, and perhaps to a certain extent beyond it, that young human beings are there rr*i ; ” r iL a» .1 r —j-.— inanared tbe point, liy which time they had been in vested with tho-loga by all tiie rest of the world. Till' that time the eldest sou monopolises the attention of father, mother, and domestics, while the juniors are left to content themselves with litils more than a nega tive permission to exist The eldest daughter is equal ly sure to have a Letter shawl than any of Fier sisteis, who, if they can obtain a reversion of hers before it is much worn, usually think themselves extremely well off. The drama of Cinderella is one which is enacts cd in a more or less complete form in every large fit. milv. 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.
