And as they all were very industrious, and ve-

country all about them, and nobody as I said
before, was happier than Eleuore. The first

be no question ofti,-—yet his thoughts were
often rambling after war, and glory, and the
like 0’ that, and it was all-his mother could do
to keep him with her : for she had seen enough
of the eontequences of war, in the sufferings
of her poor husband, and so she often told
Donald. But. the lad waarestlcsa and voting,

at Bic-rrore's cot. for my husband had gone la‘

there were none but men servants left. at the

told her. she had much hcttei-'send Dori-"ilil or
511“, for them ; she said,rio, let them sleep zi-
‘ while yet. But she opened the door‘ of their
lritile room, and we both looked in on them.-
Tiicre they lay, Donald in a sound sleep, and
his young broiirerjwiilnhis face prestied close

over his bosom,zis if he wero‘cling'n; to him

lorcheads of her sleeping sons. We.leftthe cot-
-lvge; and I told her at ‘parting, that if my hue-
band did not return. I would be with her a-
gain before the gleaming.
Elcnorc took her way up the glen. and
what befel her there she afierivards told
me when she_ lay on a bed of eicl<nces.—
She had reached the border of the deep ba-
sin, where the water sleeps as it were, after
rushing from the cliff’: above, and had begun
to ascend among the rocks,-fur she tho‘t. as
she afterwards said.that as she hadtime enough
before her, she would search out a few herbs
that grow in that wild place, to send to old
Maude who had been ailing a long time.-
Well, alto wound her way along the aide nftiie
torrent, which appeared to her to rush stron-
ger, and war louder, the higher she went:
and the mists roll'd over the summit. and
down the sides of the hill, and every thing :1-
round her looked so wild and solitary. that
her courage failed, and she prepared to return
to the level ground, in look for her cows. But
just as she came opposite to the great. black
cragg,--tliat \\‘lIIClI we call the Earn-Cliff. my
lady.--slio saw the vapours roll down its sides
like wreaths of arrow, and they sailed over the
bed of the torrent, and coiiceiiled it from her
sight, though she still heard it roaring below.
Tlrcn. she said. it separated, and she saw a-
mong the ‘mist on the opposite rocks. a form
like that of her own Allan. wr:2p‘d in a wind-
ing Slit et. and oli,it was about his neck !--and
while she looked, it chairgcd its form and vari-
i.-hed away. taking the most beautiful colors
as it disappeared. She was so terrified, that
;-he dropped the lapfull oflierbs which she had
gathered for Maude, rind hastening back to the
cot rt. solved to kecpAlleii at hune all that day.
The sun wzasjust rising when she FCZICIIEII the
Cdllanfe door; she opencil it hastily. but’ found
that her sons were already gone. There, on
the table, stood two small wooden bowls with
their lioiu spoons; a jug, with a little iiriillt
remaining in it, and some fragments of oaten
bread lay near, the remnants oftlicir morning
meal ; they had eaten it, and set out on their
usual ratnbliiigs. Elenore was iniscriible all
the day. and as she said, fit for nothing, the
nppearancc on the side of the Earn-cliff still
haunted her mind; she would have thought it
a delusion, occasioned by the rolling mist,but,
no——the countenance was pale, and 8_lll.' saw it
plainl_v'—-it smiled upon her.
Evening at length returned, and as my hus-
baiid was still absent, Iagain went I.0El8llnr€S
cottage. I found one of the neighbors there,
trying to cotnfor. her, for she was still weary-
ing for her boys to come home; and we were
telling her how idle her fears were. for surely
it was no nnconirnon thing for Donald oiidAl-
len to stay away till night fall.
Just then we heard a hasty step near the
door,and in ii moment Donald entered bearing
something heavy. His mother started from
her seat, and stood still as she gazed at him,
and well elit‘. might : for his countenance was
as pale and wan, as that of the water-wraitli.
and his eyes stared wildly; he held the lifeless
body of his young brother in his arms, whose
head drooped over his shoulder like a’ broken
Iilly. In an instant he stooped and laid the
boy down on the cai'tl'ien floor, as he cried with
a voice-,—-olr .'riy lady--so nneartlily——lilte no-

Juvicsti.e Eitrnor.-—'I’lte following interesting
anecdote is taken from thi-Utica Citizen. It was
related by W. H. Mrryriartl, .'Esq. at it recent
met ting oi‘ the Lyceum in that village.
"‘ In Decernbcr, lS07’,3iIr. M. was te;icli-
ing school for a quarter in Ilia town of
Plrrrnfir-Id, Mass. One cold blitsieiiiig
morning, on errtt.-ring his school room, he
ubservt:.l ii laid that he had not seen be-
fore, nil. ing -in one of the benches. Titt-
lardsoon rnzide known his arraittlfifiitli’. M.
He was fifteen years old ; his parents liv-
ed seven miles disttini ; he wanted an ed-
3
him contrive him’ to obtain it.
“ Mr. M. asked him ifhe was acquain-
toil wi.li any one in the place I “ No."
“Do your pa-outs knowany person here ?"
“ No-" “ Can your pan-tits he-lp you to-
wards obtaiiring an education .7” “ No.”
“ Have you any friends that can give you
assigmncu ?" “ No." “ \Vcll,' how do
you expect to obiairr an education P” “ I
don't know, but Itlrouglitl would come
arrilseeyou." Mr. M. told him to stay
that day, and lie would see what could be
done. He discovered that the boy was
possessed ofgond serise, but no uncommon
brilliaiicy ; and he was particularly struck
with the co -l and resolute nrmrnnr in which
lie urrdcnook to corrquor tiiflictiliies which
would have intimidated common niirrds.—
In the course nftlre day, Mr. M. u.a(le
provision for having him b--aided tli-ougli
rho tvirrt.-riu thufariiily with himself, the
lad p -yiiig for his board by his services
out of school. He gave liiuiself diligently
to study, in which be inside good, but no.
rapid proficicricy, improving every upper-
trinity ofreadirrg and coirversa‘.i.iii for ac-
quiring krrowledgez and thus s,cni the
winter.
‘- Wlron Mr. III. left the place in the
spring, he engaged at ttiiuister, who resided
about lour miles from the boy’.~i farther, in
Iienrliis recitatioris; and the boy accor-
dingly bonrded at home and pursued his
studies.
“ It is tirirrnccss-.iry to pursue the r:rrra-
tire further. Mr. M. lizid never seen the
lad since. But this was the early liistory
of the Rev. Jonas King, whose exertions
iii the cause of oriental learning, ziiid-in 3]-
loviiitiiig the miseries of Grei.-cu, have cri-
deared liiiii alike to the sclinlir and‘ the
