FORSAKES.
th* fky is cheerless with cloud* of gloom ;
The bough* are bare and tbe lean* ar*
shed ;
The rashes swa£ to the purging tune
Of a stream whose music is dull and dead ;
And new a gleam of sun o’erhead,
And never a blade of grass left green ;
And crystal jewels all strewn and spread
Where a thousand flushes of bloom bar#
been.
The birds are «inging no snog of joy ;
The ivv covers an empty oest ;
W ill chill of Winter’s breath destroy
The light of Summer wi'hiu sny breast T
For comes the touch of a doubt unblest,
And it breaks the calm of a tender dream.
And the crystal cold of its hand has prest
Myh ope from a hope that "might have
been.”
0 swaying roskes and shivering birds,
0 stream that has never a song to sing,
0 fickle swallows who heard his word’.
Hall whispered here in the'silver spring,
My sighs with you to the South rosy bring
The old, old storv of trust betrayed ;
For here I w. ep, while on wayward wing
You B:t and Batter through sun sod shade.
1 see you By where my love has flown ;
1 see you follow the shimmering track
Of a sunlight spread on a tea sun strewn
With rays that t.my never lead him back ;
For few and fickle ar* vows that lack
The truth that livrs in the far, far North ;
0 lave. 0 life, that y< u so ght come back,
If only to tell me what love is worth 1
Is I*. worth a Summer of bliss divine,
Or a thousand kisses in haze of night,
Or s thousand vows that proclaim you mine,
Or a wrong that never can be set right ?
Is it worth the shedding et tears that blight
Those eyes whose lustre you loted so well T
Is it worth th* loss of a life's delight
To love too lit'. Ic—or love too well?
O sorrowful eyes all dark and dim,
That look at me from an amber cloud
A cloud.that was burnished gold to him,
t< uehed it once with a touch so
prond !
O face that has gathered the Winter’s chill
On lips and brow that to him were vowed !
1 would you could follow him where he will.
Or—sink to rest in the Summer’s shroud 1
Babies.
We have often wondered what they were
thinking of, when beholding them appar
ently wrapped in profound meditation, or
When we have ourself been the ohject of their
concentrated gaze. By what process of
reasoning do they arrive at their small con
clusions? Wondar if they are logical, or
like other “children of a larger growth,”
oftimes very tllogicall We huve heard it
*aid, by grave and learned persons, that very
young children were instinctive physiogno
mists, and quickly discerned tbe difference
between people who were deserving of their
confidence, ai d those who were not. We
bad never raised a dissenting voic* against
that wise assertion until after an incident
that occurred one day, while we were jour
neying in a railway car. Riding along, en
joying tbe balmy air that wafted in from the
windows, sweet and rich with the health
giving ozone from the odorous pines, at
peace with ourself, and all the world, we
suddenly became aware that a pair of large,
lastrons eyes, owned by a baby in the seat
right before us, wer* intently filed upon our
/ace. Did you ever encounter for a length
of time the gaze of a baby’s eye*—unblush
ing. unflinching, calm, serious, thoughtful,
penetrating, as though trying to fathom your
inmost soul's most secret thought ? There
is a peculiar magnetism about it, and we
after the first minute grew restive under it.
Tet we admired the pretty baby, and while
thinking what a treasure the possession of
such a tiny pink and whit* morsel of hu
manity would be. wondering at the same
lime what ‘ baby” was thinking of, we saw
the coral under lip protrude, tha eyes sud
denly close tight, the mouth open wide, while
from the small throat came a yell which a
Comanche Indian might feel proud to exe
cute The young mother, seeing her “pet”
quiet < nly a short time before, had entered
into animated chat with a friend in tbe front
seat, but of course she now turned hastily,
and clasped her child in her arms, at the
same time giving os a suspicious and indig
asDt look W e have a vague w mustbrance
now. that amid the din we attempted to
make a speech, the substance of which was,
that we ‘ hadn’t done anything to the young
one," but our defence did not prove a suc
cess. and we fear that tbe fond mother was
firmly convinced that we had given her
little darling a surreptitious pinch. Now
what did that baby see in onr countenance
to justify any such result ? We have never
bragged of our good looks, aud if there is
any troth in the old adage, that -‘handsome
is as band&eme does,” we fear we have small
claim upan that score, yet we certainly looked
very kindly on the wee stranger, and what
it saw in our "phiz” 60 decidedly objection
able, we will never know.
Just bere, another experience with a baby
comes up to our memory, as s small reminis
eeDce of the shadowy past. We offered once
to take our sick ne ghbur's little boy, just
fifteen months old, and keep him all night,
s# that his delicate young mother might en
joy a long and undisturbed rest. The father
gratefully accepted cur proposal, and -baby” j
was biought into ns at daik, fast asleep, and
so. unconscioos of his change to new quar
ters. When we laid down to rest that night,
with tbe golden head on our own pillow, and
the sweet little pcuch-blos6otn cheek nest
ling so near our own, we felt as though the
“pearly gates” must have been for a moment
left ajar, and some little spirit wandering
clone through tbe si reels of that beautiful
Jasper-walled city above, had slipped out
orswsres, and so straying bad made its way
into our lonely room.
Suddenly the white lids wpre lifted from
the violet-hued eyes, as we lay admiring onr
p< w visitor, and we saw that he was now
wide awake, contemplating ns in return with
an earnest, inquiring gaze. “Darling, want
gome water ?” we asked in our sweetest
tones. ‘‘A’©” came forth from tbe rosy lips
with a stern brevity worthy the "Hero of
Waterloo." Want some nice tea? * No,”
again said tbe miniature Napoleon. What
a good child, we th< agbt ; how few babies :
would be so 6weet and quiet under the same j
circumstances. But then, we rifl«cted, he J
knows eor goodness of heart, he Ts one of the
tyiicctiT* physiognomist* who reads aright -
and he feels *afe with us. While these
thoughts wera running throogh onr brain,
quicker than words can convey it there came
a tiny hand from beneath the coverlid, and
w* to our dismay were scratched right in
the face front forehead to chin by onr
“angelic" guest. Having prided ourself on
a smooth, soft complexion, we anxiously con
suited the mirror early next morning, the
result showing us a countenance which
looked very much as though we had been
•ngoged in personal combat with an army
nf kittens. Meanwhile, baby said not a
word, only resuming his concentrated stare,
until, overpowered by the drowsy god, he
once more went off to the land of dreams.
Even at this far off date we are utterly una
ble to account for the conduct of those
babies, aud still insist that (heir behavior,
under the circurastunces, was altogether un
justifiable.'
Well! Pics* the btbies! for they are
sweet, every one nf them, the good ones and
the bad owe*, with their smull unaccounta
ble way*, and onfa'homublc motives They
are preen us gifts dropped down in our midst
from heaven's bright school—little rosebuds,
dewy-wtt from the garden of the "Lord of
Parudise." Pur* os tbe pearl, iheir fftMr
souls, all untainted by contact with earth,
they are in onr hands, to mould them as we
will Should we not strive, we who are
their happy possessors, to keep them “an
spotted from the world?” Y'S God bless
the little children ! very precious are they
from the hour of their coming ; to a woman
long before, when but a throb of her own
heart-pulse, a sigh of her own breath, a
sweet und sacred >eciet known only to her
self and to her God. How quickly do they
twine themselves around our very heart
tendrils! bow much they are to us in lile,
and still a h tinting presence, when they have
gone from us forever more.— Woman'* Jour
nal.
A New View of Byron.
An opinion lias recently arisen in Eng
land, even among his admirers, that Byron
mischoac hia vocation ; that, notwithstand
ing Ilia poetical genius end his fine poetical
productions, hiS grunt strength lay in prope.
Many critical Britons say that it is ,mly
within a few years that people hnve begun
to discover that tbe gloornv and cynical bard
was, ns be proclaimed himself, reallv the
most unromantic of human beings. While
the sentimental young women of a past gen
eration imagined the handsome poet scowl
ing at fortune, and curling his lip in scorn
at the hollowness and sordidness of the werld,
he was laughing in Italy like Memos, and
Iboroagh'y enjoying himself, though in a
rather coarse fa«hion. He npver'di-cnvered
until after he had written "Beppo" that he
was a humorist, which he proved beyond
question in his exceedingly sarcastic, wise
and witty "Don Juan.” Removed from his
Oriental wrappings and pictorial melancholy
in ink, he was a very honest, eotnmon-B°n*i
ble fellow, who particularly hated cant and
humbug, including much of the purely liter
ary kind in which he professionally indulged.
'1 he eloquence, pathos, wild passion, testht tic
bitterness, and picturesque despair which
run through * Harold,” * Manfred,” “The
Corsair,” and "The Giaour,” wer* but
phases of his composing mind Toward the
close of bis striking career, he was develop
ing tbe best that whs in him—humor, wit,
and representation of humanity, tlud he
lived fifteen or twenty years longer, he
would, it is thought, have wholly relinquished
poetry and high colored fletioo for sober
fact, and have become, probably, a novelist
of the Henry Ficldiug school.
A Srr. undid Wifk.— We once knew a
man who wns always praising his wile. On
the corner, down the street, at tbe post
ifflue, at tbe theatre, in the sal—tnat is, the
choir meeting, he waa always telling what a
hnppy roan he was, just because he had such
a splendid wife, and he talked every man
into a frenzy of envy about her. Well, one
win'er morning, wh» n it was not yet too
light to make one appear over ostentatious,
we sneaked into that neighbor’s yard to steal
a board for kindiing, and had to wait until
that man’s wife came out and sawed a cou
ple of srmslul of wood, sbovelrd out three
snow paths, fed nnd groomed the horse, aud
ck'aned out tbe cow shed ; und when she
went into tbe house, and we heard her call to
her husband that the sitting room was warm
enough for him to dress in if he wanted to
get np. it so amazed us that we forgot what
we were waiting for, and went back sod
kindled the fite with a corn-cob uud a pint
of kerosene.
What is thk Bibi.k Lik*? —lt is like a
large beautiful tree, which b> ars large, sweet
fruit for those that are hungry, ond affords
shelter and shade for pilgrims cn their way
to the kingdom of heaven.
It is like a cabinet ol jewels and precious
stenes. which are not only to be looked at
and admired, but used and worn.
It is like a telescope that brings distant
objects and far off things of the world very
near, so that we can see something of their
beauty and importance.
It is like a treasure house, a store bouse,
for all sorts of useful and valuable things,
sod which are to be had without money and
without price.
It is like a deep, broad, calm, flowing
river, the banks of which are green and
floweiy, where b : rds sing and lumbs play,
and dear little children are loving and happy.
What thk Bibi.k Contains — ln one of
our exchanges we find tbe subjoined curious
romaiks on the Bible, by a - widow who had
nothing to do and could not sleep
The Bible contains 3,566 689 letters, 810,-
697 word*. 31,173 verses, 1 189 chapters,
and 66 books. The word "and” occurs 46*
227 tiroes ; -Lord,’’ 1,554 : -reverend,” only
onee, and that in the 111th Psalm. The
21st verse of the 7th chapter of Ezra con
tains the alphabet. The I 9th chapter of the
2d book o( Kings and the 37th chapter of
Isaiah are alike. The first man recorded as
buried in a coffin was Joseph, 50th chapter
®f Genesis and oth verse Nowhere but in
tbe Ist chapter of 2d Tiißothy and sth verse,
is tbe name -grandmother” mentioned. Two
particularly fine chapters to read are tbe 2lst
of Joel and the 29tb of Acts. Tbeie is no
name or word of more thuu six syllables in
the Holy Bible.
Thk reason why “the hern of the hunter
is not beaid on tbe hill” any more, is because
be curriec it iu a pocket flask just now.
ODE TO A 808-JAILED CAT.
Fel s infelix I Cat unfortunate,
V\ ilh nary narrative! Caost thou no tale
Of how frelate
(M ieow I)
Thy tale-end came to terminate
Ho bluntly ?
Didst wear it off by sedentary habits,
As do tbe rabbits?
Didst go a-fishing with it,
Wishing with it
To bob for catfish, and got bobbed thyself?
Curses on thut fi-h !
Or did sonjp wicked boy,
Home barbarous oov,
Some murderous boy,
Eliminate thy finis?
Probably.
The wretch ! the villain!
Cruelly spiffin'
Thy innocent blood 1
Let every cat scratch him,
Suck his breath,
Be his death,
Where’tr they may catch him !
Or did some brother grnyhack,
Y ewling
And howling
In nocturnal strife,
Hpitlin’ and starin’,
Cit-i-in’ and swe irin’,
Calling thee sassage tail,
Abbreviate thy suffix ?
*******
A’ell, Bob, two courses are left.
Since thus of your tail ynti’ie bereft :
Tell your ftii-nds that by icttei from Paris
You’ve learned the style there is
To wear the tail short, and the briefer the
better ;
And for prompt imitation such is the passion.
That every grimalkin will follow your fash
ion ;
Or else—
There are fur-shops where cat skins are re
tailed—
Hurry off, Robert Caudal, nnd be tailed.
