The following excellent story, tak en from tlie ‘Little Pilgrim,’ we hope all of our young friends will read: — ‘Well,’ exclaimed Geraldine, with an impatient toss of the head—‘Well, I was never before taxed with the want of generosity, I am sure I give away everything in the world.” ‘Excuse me—you do not.’ ‘lndeed, aunt, I give up every thing.’ ‘Again, excuse me; there is one thing you never give up.’ ‘What, aunty?’ ‘Your temper.’ Geraldine pulled at the fingers of her gloves, one by one, and then tos sed them on the table, ■while her elieeks flushed, and her eyes grew bright, and not with pleasure. ‘1 am sure I gave away all my money ; is not that being generous?’ ‘You give away the thing, of all others you love least, and which it gives you the least trouble to part with. All your wants and wishes are supplied to you, without money.’ ‘I give away my books and my toys.’ ‘These are constantly replaced by others, —not at your own eost, but by the liberality of those whose love is, perhaps, injudicious.’ ‘1 even give away my pets.’ ‘When you are tired of them.’ Geraldine burst into tears. ‘I am sure,’ she said, sobbing, ‘I am sure people seem to think they have done duty when they give money; and I —gave —all—mine—yesterday—and uncle Richard —-said—l—was—so— good—l should have—plenty—more —to-day.’ ‘However necessary money is to us,’ observed aunt Jane, gravely, ‘1 often consider giving it is but a small evidence of generosity, partic ularly when certain of having it re placed, let us look at this matter steadily, and with a gentle, yet in quiring spirit.’ ’You guru tv shilling to dame God frey, the other mornig, you ma not want tho shilling l*o you remem ber what she said ?’ ‘Yes, aunt,’ ‘She said, ‘thank you, my dear young lady ; but, O, how grateful I would be if you would read to me just one chapter of the New Testa ment.’ ‘I don’t like to read to old women,’ pouted out Geraldine. ‘Your generosity did not extend to the sacrifice of doing what you dis liked, but Mary Collier’s did.’ ‘Mary Collier,’ repeated the little girl, disdainfully ; poor little Mary Collier! how can she lie generous!” ‘Mary Collier’s chest is weak, and heaves and pants when she reads aloud, and yet I often and often find her sitting beside Dame Godfrey’s bed, and doing—what you refused to and you can read and sing without panting. Your shilling gilt robbed you neither of ease or com fort; Mary Collier sacrificed both — that was generosity. And there is that poor old woman, Alice Grey; Alice is one of the most generous women ever 1 knew.’ ‘Alice!’ exclaimed Geraldine; ‘why Alice would not have had a dinner at Christmas, but for your kindness— how can she be generous?’ ‘There is one great gift, among many which God gives us at our birth, Geraldine, and which remains with us from the cradle to the grave —our time. We work it or waste it —we sell it and exchange it, but still it is our own —it is the only treasure which the working man and the working woman possesses ; we have no right to squander or abuse it, or to lead others to do so. Now Alice lived by her time —mind you, she lives by it —so she understands and appreciates its value. If she leaves her daily labor, even for an hour, she knows she is depriving herself of a certain quantity of food, or light, or tire, or abridging the size or quantity of her poor dress, miserably scanty as it is; and yet Alice gives that hour —aye, many hours—to comfort the fatherless and the widow; she works for others —she deprives her self of what to her is necessary, to serve others. That is generosity. ‘1 saw a little boy, the other day, go into a baker’s shop and he was really hungry, and lie was very fond of buns—all little boys are—but the greater matter was, he was hungry; he bought a large two-penny bun ; he was so hungry that he turned all the marble and bits of string, and odds and ends of queer boylike things, out of his pockets, hoping to find another penny, to add a small bun to the large one, but he had not even another farthing; so he took a great hungry bite out of his bun, and looked with pleasure at the piece in his hand, spotted over with black currants —‘What a nice bun,’ said the little boy, ‘and I am so hungry!’ When he looked up from the bun, he saw a pair of large blue eyes, staring from amid a shock of wild hair.— Alas! the nose and lids, the cheeks of the child who gazed so eagerly at NO. 31. his bun, were pinched and yellow from starvation. My little friend saw it in a moment, and not a mo ment did lie hesitate, but, without a word, he walked up to the starving child, and placed the remainder of the bun in his thin hand. That was generosity. The boy who had the bun was hungry and poor, yet he re mained hungry rather than suffer one poorer and more hungry than himself to starve. Now it is not enough for you to say, ‘well done, fine fellow !’ But I want you to go and do likewise. It is not enough for the heart to heat and the eyes to swim in tears, when a gen erous action is recorded; if it makes a proper impression you will not be happy until you have done like wise.’ Geraldine looked straight on. She hardened her heart sometimes, and when she did, you sec it in the ex pression of eyes turned almost to stone—eyes hard and fearless. She had a long time believed that she was very generous in giving her money; her aunt’s observation had nearly convinced her that generosi ty was something more than giving what she did not care for or want, and it made her very uncomfortable; but she was too stubborn to confess that she was wrong. God had not j*et softened her heart. She knew hut little of prayer, and had vcrysel. dom proved how a prayer is answer ed, when it is laid before the Al mighty in a pure and humble spirit- Aunt Jane loved her dearly, and the more dearly she loved her, the more anxious she became that Geraldine should conquer the evil and cultivate the good of her disposition ; hut that is a thing the young are slow to un derstand. They think, silly things, that those who love them most, will indulge them most. ‘1 will tell you,’ continued aunt * “ vv “ .7 Jane, after a pause—for she was so wise that she paused to let one thing sink into Geraldine’s mind before she spoke of another—‘l will tell you of a hoy who had an aggravating temper—it was not so very violent, but it was wilful, obstinate, unyield ing; if lie was told to read at one O’clock, write at two, amt Oo Ins lffir tin exercises at three, he would ar gue that it was better to do li is Latin at one and read at three. Half his time was spent in contradiction. He was absurd enough to suppose that he knew better than his teachers; he did not of course say that he did, hut he would act as if he did. He knew nothing of the generosity which j yields a will to the will of others— ! he had not learned the duty of obe dience, and did not see its advanta ges.’ ‘lts advantages V questioned Ger aldine. ‘Yes, its advantages. Is it not an j advantage to have everything provi- j ded, everything thought of, every thing prepared, everything that the experience and knowledge of ago can suggest, done for youth —the thorns removed from the path, the whole business of life arranged, so as to prepare them for the least possible outlay of trouble to themselves—and J all required in return being obedi ence and attention ?’ Geraldine’s eyes were growing less stony, and she half muttered, in a low tone, ‘that is true.’ ‘This boy, like many girls, wanted j to learn only what he liked, and it j would have been difficult to teach him on these terms, for what he lik ed this week he did not like the next; and such was his spirit of opposition, that if it were wished that he should like this, he would be sure to rush at the beliefthat he liked that. ‘lf you are so contradictory,’ said his father, ‘no one will love you.’ ‘ I don’t care for being loved,’ said the boy. ‘O, very well,’ said the father. ‘The next morning when he came down stairs, he looked around, and then offered his mother the morning kiss. She turned from him, and he saw she had been weeping. ‘You do not care for being loved,’ said his father,‘and so as you don’t care about being loved, you must try and live without love. Love has hitherto toiled for you, love has clothed you, love has fed you, love has educated you, love has had pa tience with you, love has rewarded you, love has watched over you, love has prayed for you—from your era-. die you have been ministered to by love; but you do not care for be ing loved—so, now live without love.’ ‘The hoy’s heart was hard, and so he thought lie could live without his father's work, and his mother’s bless ing; bethought he could live with out love, lie had no generosity in his nature —if he had, he would have curbed his temper; he would have yielded all he had to yield—his will —to the will of those who loved him. lie had nothing but that to give, in return for the years of love, of labor, of thought, of prayer, he had cost his parents. It never entered into his heart to feel, that his obedience, his docility, hUcurbing himself, would have been generous.’ ‘Aunt Jane!’ exclaimed Geraldine, bursting into a flood of honest tears, ‘though not a boy, I am that boy.— Pray with me—pray for me—this New Year’s day; pray that I may feel and practice, and believe, that giving up what we most cherish is the only true generosity.”— Mrs. S. 0. Hall. Inclined to be Quarrelsome. The Tehama Gazette tells the following story of one Gardner, a Georgian, “a little, slim-built fellow, rich as a Jew, and indepen dent as the devil.” Riding along the highway he overtook a man driving a drove of hogs by the help of a big, raw-boned, six-feet two specimen of humanity. Stopping the last named indi vidual, he accosted him: ‘ I say, are these your hogs?” “No, sir, I’m to work by the month.” “What pay might you begetting, friend?” “Ten dollars a month, and whisky thrown in,” was the reply. “Well, look here, I’m a weak, little, inof fensive man, and people are apt to impose upon me, d’you see. Now, I will give you twenty-five dollars a month to ride along with me and protect me,” was Gardner’s reply. “But,” he added,as a thought struck him, “how might you be on the fight?” “Never been licked in my life,” rejoined the six-footer. “Just the man I want. Is it a bargain?” queried Gardner. Six-footer ruminated. “Twenty-five dol lars—double wages—nothing to do but ride around and smash a fellow’s mug occa sionally, when lie’s sassy.” Six-footer ac cepted. They rode along till just at night they reached a village. Dismounting at the door, they went in. Gardner immediately singled out the biggest man in the room, and picked a fuss with him. After considerable prom iscuous jawing, Gardner turned to his fight ing friend and intimated that the licking of tlud man had become a sad necessity.— Six-footer replied, went in, and came out first best. The next night, at another hotel, the same scene was re-enacted; Gardner getting into a row with the biggest man in the place,and six-looter doing the fighting. At last on the third day, they came to a ferry, kept by a huge double-fisted man who had never been licked in his life. Whilst crossing the river, Gardner, as usual, began to find fault and “blow.” The ferryman na turally got mad, threw things around kind o’ loose, and told them his opinion of their kind. Gardner then turned to his friend “from the shoulder,” and gently broke the intelligence to him, “that he was sorry, but that it was absolutely necessary to thrash that ferryman.” Six-footer nodded his head, and said nothing. It was plainly to be seen that he did not relish the job, by the way he shrugged his shoulders, but there was no help for it. So, when they reached the shore, both stripped, and at it they went.— Up and down the bank, over the sand, into the water they fought, scratched, gouged,bit and rolled, till at the end of an hour the fer ryman caved. Six-footer was triumphant, but it had been tough work. Going up to his employer, he scratched his head for a moment, and then broke forth : “Look here, Mr. Gardner, your salary sets mighty well, but—l’m—of—the —opinion— that you are inclined to he quarrelsome. — Here I’ve only been with you three days, and I’ve licked the three biggest men in the country! I think this firm had better dis solve ; for you see, Mr. Gardner, I’m afraid you’re inclined to be quarrelsome, and I reckon I'll draw!” “Old How, You’re Too Late!” An Arkansas .correspondent of the Saint Louis Herald gets off the following : This is a great country for jokes, and we have just had one which is too good to keep. Early this morning there was added to our company of travelers a pair who looked very much like runaways; the man a tall, raw boned specimen of the haif-horse, half-alli ! gator class, and the woman a full match for | him. Among the passengers from Napoleon | is a solemn-looking individual who had all along been taken for a preacher. About 9 o’clock last night, I was conversing with tho “reverend” gentleman, when a young man stepped up and said to him, “We’re going to have a wedding, and would like to have you officiate.” “All right, sir,” he replied laugh- ingly, and we stepped into the where, sure enough, the couple stood wait ing. There had been some “kissing games,” and several mock marriages gone through with during the evening, and I supposed that this was merely a continuation of the sport, and so thought the “preacher,” who, I could see, had a good deal of humor in him, and was inclined to promote general good feelings and merriment. The couple stood before him a great deal more solemn than was necessary in a mock marriage, I thought, and the “preacher’’ asked necessary questions, and then, proceeding in the usual way, pronounced them “husband and wife.” There was a good deal of fun afterward?, and when it was over I left the cabiu, and so did the “preacher,” who remarked to me that he liked to see young folks enjoy them selves, and always took much pleasure in contributing to their fun; but he didn’t un derstand why the young couple he had just “spliced” should have selected him to play the parson. Just then someone called me aside, and the old gentleman stepped into his state-room, which was next to mine.— When I returned, the door stood open, and the “preacher” stood just inside, with his coat and vest and one boot in his hand, talking with the gentleman who had acted the “attendant,” and who, as I came up, re marked, “Well, if that’s the case it’s a good joke, for they're in dead earnest, and have retired to the same state-room.” The old gentleman raised both his hands, us he ex claimed, “Good heavens 1 you don't tell me me so 1” and rushing just as he was, boot in hand,to the state-room indicated,commenced an assault on the door as if he would|batter it down, exclaiming at each blow, “ For heaven’s sake don’t! I ain’t a preacher!” The whole cabin was aroused, every state room (lying open with a slam; when the door opened, and the Arkansas traveler, poking out his head coolly remarked, “Old boss, you’re too late 1” ■ SCRAPS. Though the great book of nature lies opon to all, how few there arc who so road as to understand it. Hear no ill of a friend, nor speak any of an enemy; believe not all you hear; and ap pear what you arc. When a man lias no design but to speak plain truth, he may say a great deal in a very narrow compass. Men long inured to vice, and habituated to folly, afford rare instances of reformation; youth is the proper season. Value the friendship of him who stands by you in the storm; swarms of insects will surround you in the sunshine.
