POETRY.
The Child at Pr:ayer-
"fwns sirinrrrer eve——tlre rosy light
Had faded frorrr the sky
And stars carrrt-. twirrltling pure and bright,
Tlrrotiglr the blue arch on high;
The we-stcrii lir'm-ze::strl'rly stole,
To kiss the slcepirrg flower.
And nature were her sweetest: smile.
To bless the twiligtlr hour.

There sat. within a curtairr’d room,
A inotlreryourrg arid lilIl'--

\Vlrat. voice coirrus softly tlirongli the gloom?
‘Tis t:ht|dlrood's voice in pray’r,

A clrerub boy is kneeling now.
Bositlc that riiotlier’s knee,

She who had tauglit him when to bow
Before the Deity.

A fatlrer on the distant deep,
A sister sruurl_r'r'iirg near,
A babe upon his rrrotlier’s breast,
And that l\lIl(I irrotlier dear:
For every living thing lit‘. loves,
llis pray'i' ascend to lit-aven,
And for lrirrisclflie lrurnbiy asks,
Each sin rrray be forgiven.

And oft in at'ter years, when grief,
Sliall how his spirit down.

And the world, the cold and bitter W0l‘ltl,
Shall meet him with a l'ro\vn,

Or when alluretl from virtuc’s path,
He trends :1 tlaiigerous way :

Oh! he will turir to this sad hour,
\\"lien first he knelt to pray.

And the kind lraird which then was laid
Upon his silken hair:

And the suit voicewliicli taught him first.
I-lissiriiplt.-. words of prayer-—

\Vill corne again with thrilling power
To still his pulses wild,

And lure him back in tlial. dark hour,
As siiiless as a child.

Tire prayer is o’er the last. fond kiss
3y that ltltttl mother given;
But rises irot fi'oiirscciies like this.
That ttlriltlislt prayerto lreaveii?
It does, it does. air angel's wing
I-ins bnrno its tones Wlllt jtty.
And the earnest lrtt-ssiirg whit-.li it sought
Curries on the sleepiirg boy.

tress and serlnsiori as well as in its shady
walks and placid, Silvery waters; and the
liztlrny brt-ath of er.-errlng. as it floats arotititl

dreanry love.

At the head of“ Loch St. IV'I:tt'y,” where
the creek. n:canders frorn among the hills, is
a Slot-ittg't‘1lVltte which at the time of the
Revolution,w:rs studded thickly with large
trees that still fur‘tlier' deepened the solitude
and vnvelopetl the spot in cool and delightful
eliadows.

In this S\Vt'_‘b£ISOllllttle two ardent souls full

It was a warm bright. day early in Octo-

arbor where she sat, the little str'_r.-amiet
poured its sivery waters along‘ its pebble bed
in pleasant murmurs, and the air, mellowed
into freshness by the shade, fanned gently
tlirough the valley. ,

young lady with affrctcd amazement, and
laying a particular emphasis on the word

He irrinrediately released his grasp, and

young soldier, “ but my heart tells me that it;

manly face. “ But here comes Dinah; and
the sun is already behind.the- hill. Let me
lead you to your mountain‘ home.'’.' I
The lovt-rs tr.':tll{8'..l f0t'\?t2l'(l, still continu-
ing their conversiuion. The cottage which,-
for a few days, I-lelen called her home, was
situated in the midst. of the bills, at some dis-
lance from airy of the roads which lead to the,
village, but was vithina short distance of
the Arncr'ic-an litres. Here Helen had been
placed by her father, who held some import-'
ant post about the army, which frequently
called him at a distance from the camp.-—
She was under the charge ofa maiden aunt,
who also sojourned at the cottage, and had
secretly favor-etl the stolen interviews of the’
lovers. W'hen Eli's‘/ilfll and Helen reached
the cottage, they sent Dinah forward to re-‘
connoitrc, who l‘epOt'l.t‘é(i that there were not
Visitors at the C0ttage,'dn(.l the lovers therefore‘
eiitered to_«_;ether'.
It turiicd out, however, that Dinah had
been clccizivetl, for two men of mature years,-
dressed in the plain uniform of officers, were
at the time, sitting in the ante room,and wait-‘
ing for I-lo!en’s return. , One of them was —
Mr. Elburg, I-lrlerr’s fatlicr, who had walk-
ed over the hill from head quarters, in com-‘
piiny wizh his fi'ii-,nd,t'irat they might pay their
respects to the ladies of the cottage; and as
soon as he heard their footsteps he entered
the room to their utter surprise and mortifi-
cation. '
For some time notaf word was spoken,
btit it look of deep displeasure told the na-
ture of the thoughts that were passingin Mr.
Ellrurg’s mind. [Ii-lcn was the first to spealé
—slrc. saw the cloud which had gathered on;
her fntlrt-r’s brow, and, iii rowing herself is
his ft‘C'.I, she looked up through her tears and
bi;-souglit his f0l‘,gIV6tt1!SS for this act of- diso-
bedii—-rice, at the same time assuring him that:
it should not be repeated. Mt‘. Eiburg up-
braided her with some severity, and ilie con-'
versation between _tlici‘n occupied several
minutes, during which time If:(l\Vff1l‘tl sat in a’
moody silence. At length Mr. Elburg tool:
his dauglitcr by the hand and was about Id
riri-te ht-r ft‘0:t.t! lier suppltcatiug posi‘.ion,when
I3:ir-.a'ir’s white eyes were seen protruding
tlirorrglr the half open door that led into the
arrtrz-rooni. , _
“ M-.r.=s:r Elburg, do General hab a. word 16
Sexy to yori,” said she;
Mr. Elburg passed inrmediatcly into the
next room, and for some time he seemed to
be in :1 deep corifer-once with his friend At
lciigtli, I'lU\«\'C_VI‘I', he r'eappear*eil ; his counte-
nairce. was (.'lt_‘.{tl‘c(l up, and he stepped for3
ward and (tfIi'l‘£'tl his hand to Edwrad.
“ I have just heard,” said be, “some of the‘
particulars of my darrgltter-’s escape from in-'
sult and rotrber'y, and perhaps from a much
worse calamity, tlirougii your timely interpo-

At the conclusion of these words liepopen-’
ed the ante-room door, and General Wash-
ington cute.-rcd it. and individually saluted
the company. When he came to address’
Edward, he said i , _ ,
“ I our happy to learn that you had t.h6_

boner fortune to be r'ecoircilcd to herfatlier.
I think he will never have reason to repent

lieastily wish you all future joy.” So saying
lit‘. placed I-Iielcn's hand in that of her lover.
-‘ Frir'tlier',” he continued ; “just. before leav-
ing lrc-ad-quarters. I received a dispatch,tho

somewhat mitigated by the fact that his
laifige property has fallen to you. This is
a piece of good r'oi-tune that I did not com-
municate to Mr. Elburg, but I suppose that
it will not be none the less welcome news."
