How beautiful the infant's earliest smile.
First welcome token that the budding soul
Hath well interpreted the fund caress.
And fell the sunshine ofa parent’s love.
For not more gentle falls the dcws nfheavcn
Upon the unope’d flower that darkly grows,
Till struggling forth, it bursts its pr't~on green,
And drinks the hues ofhc’v’it. Then on the heart
Falls the still itflur.-nce ofthe spercltlcsa love
'l‘liat brooks \\ ithin the tender mother's eve.
And oh! If smiles and gentle loving words
Might be the li clung portion ofthe soul,
How fi,irly would the flower expand and shed
Fresh odors from its bosom, to refresh
The hearts of those who watched the spirit's
duivn.

‘How happy you must be.’ said the young’
Estelle to her cousin, Mrs. Ree-d \Villitiiris,
the bride of a year. ‘You have one of the
best husbands, the l1ilftdS()tfH‘Sl. house, and
the pr.-tlicst location in our beautiful city.-—

to me that I would almost gr-t inrirrictl my-

Etnelie, are you not happy?’
The young wife ruadc no apology. but
bowed her head upon the symp:-ithizing friend
and indulged in it long and passionate flow
of tears. The alarmed and .-agitate-d Estelle
could endure it no longer; she raised her
fticnd tenderly in her arms and kissed away
the tears from her chi-ck; she smoothed the
soft brown hair which had fallen over her

‘You will laugh at run. Estelle, if I tell

and a smile broke ovr-rlhe countenance so,

‘Butyou must coax him.’ ‘I have.’-
\rVell, you must keep coaxing.’ ‘It is no

~Ernilie laughed and was silvnt. ‘Did you
say, Ah do .7‘ ‘Yes. but he said, Ab no!’
‘In truth I begin to think he does not like to
be coaxed.’ '
‘Nonsense, you never saw it being yet
that did not. Now I will tell you what. to
do. I know when he comes, you always

when he does so, just say to him, my dear,

CHAPTER in.
Mrs. Reed Williams had never looked
more beautiful than she died that evrning
when her husband l’t.‘luTt‘tt*(i. Perhaps tho-fr‘
ll-'1dbt‘Pn more than usual solivitude about
the shade ofa ribbon or the atijustinent ofa
curl. but if there was.‘ looking glass:-s ‘tell
no tal~s,’ and neat : ad plain attire would not
proclaim the fact to an ordinary obs:-rver.
She started nervously as he (‘lift red, but shr-
controllt-d herself and greeted him kindly
and camly as usual.
‘Well, my dear, said he, advancing gnily,
‘I have not smol-I-rd to d ty.’
‘Oh, thank _vou,lhanl( you, dear husbnncl.’
exclaimed Etnelie in the fullness of her
heart, ‘you will never smoke any more, will
you '1’ and _l1r‘I‘ soft pleading eyes were raised
to his with an exprrssion that amply rt-paid
him for the sacrifice.
D.i_vs passed and the young wife felt hap
pit-r than she had ever felt before. for her
heairt’s i.lol had rc-linquised even his f-rvorite
cigars and for her sakt‘.
One evening as he sat by her side sht-
ll)()l’_g’ltI he seemed unusually depressed, and
her chi-ertul smiles and her anim ted conver-
cation failed to H"SIO|'0 his wonte-d guic-ty.—-
She did not fl:~'l\’ the cause, but .she almost
fell. as lfshe hail b.-on selfish in exacting
such it s-icrifice as she knvw it to be. At
length ht‘ arose-—‘Emt~lie, [think I must
have 8 cigar.’ No word of loud tnlrr-my

GOING TO BED BEFORE YOUNG"

We published it Wrfk or two since under
this head, a most amusing siory of one Judge
Douglass, of Illiriois. in which that gentle-
man, having acct pied the hospitality of a
large fainily,-orrcupying ti single room, was
obliged to undress and ‘hop into bed’ in the
presr-i.cv of ii young lady. This young lady

she cried, ~
‘Gals, jvst. turn your backs round ’till the
stranger gets into bed.’
The backs were turned, and the stranger
did get into bed in less than no time, when
the hostess again spoke.
‘Rcckon, stranger as you aint used to us.

and favoring his sly glances.

‘You can unliiver now. stranger. I'm

The stranger happened to be married
fo-l-ks himself; he unliivered and turned his
back with true connubial indifierenci-. as far
as the ancient lady was concerned. but with
regard to the gals he declares that his half
raised curiosity inspired the mosttormi-ntinc
dreams of mcrrrtaids that he ever experienced".

There is it spot in the south western part
ofthis State, known as the Fiery Fork of
Honey Run l—a dcli('IOUS locality, no doubt
as the rim of ‘honey’ is of course accompan-

mixture of milk and honey. or at any rate,
honey and ‘peach,’ is the evidence of subli_i-
nary contentinentinent. every place where
they have prt-aching!
‘Honey Run is further christianized by
the presence of an €Xl.l'el!|f.‘ly hospitable fam-
ily, whose mansion, comprising one apart-

for being never shut against the traveler,
and so our friend found it during the chill
