TIIE NEW CIIUBCII ORGAN.
BY WILL. I.- CABLI'I‘ON.
They’ve got a bran new organ, Sue,
For all their fuss and search;
They’ve done just as they said they'd d
And fetched it into church.
They're bound the critter shsilbe seen.
And on the preacher‘s right,
They've hoisted up their new mac e
In everybody’s sight.
They’ve got a chorister and choir,
Agin in voice and vote:
For it was never an desire,
To praise the Lord. by note!
I’ve been a sistergood nn’ true,
For five su' thirty year:
I've done what seemed my part to do.
An’ prayed my duty clear,
I’ve sung the hymns both slow and quick,
Just as the preacher read,
And twice, when Deacon Tubbs was sick.
I took the fork an’ ledl ,
And now, their bold, uew-fangled ways
Is comln’ all about;
And I, right in my letter days,
Am fairly crowded out! '
To-day the preacher. good old dear,
With tears all in his es,
had—“I can read my tie clear
To mansions in the skies."
I al’ay's liked that blessed him,
I s'poss 1 al'ays will;
It somehow gratines nr whim,
. In good old Ortonville,
But when that choir got up to sing,
I couldn’t catch a wordy“.0 , '
They sung the most dou-gondest thing
A body ever heard!
Some worldly chaps was standin' near
. 'An’ when I seed them grin,
I bid farewell to every fear,
And boldly waded in.
I thought i'd chose their tune along,
An' tried with all my nights“ .
But though my voice is good an' strong.
I couldn’t steer It right.
When they was high, then I was low,
An’ also contra’wise;
And I too fast, or they too slow,
To “mansions in the skies.”
An’ after every verse; you know,
They played a little tune;
- I didn’t understand. sn’ so
I started in too soon.
I pitched it pritty middlin’ high,
I fetched a lusty tone,
But oh, alas! I found that I
Was singin’therc alone!
They laughed a little, I am told:
But I had done my best;
And not a wave of trouble rolled
Across my peaceful breast.
1
And sister Brown—I could but look—
She sits right front of me;
She never was no singin’ book,
,Aud never went? to be;
But then she al’ays tried to do
The best she could, she said;
She unde load time, right through,
An’ kep it, with her head;
But when she tried'lhls mornin', oh,
I had to laugh or cough!
It kep’ her head a bobblu’ so,
It c’en a’most came 011’!
An’ Deacon Tnbbs—hs all broke down,
As one might well suppose;
He took one look at sister Brown,
And meekly scratched his nose.
He looked his hymn book through and throng
And laid it on the seat, -
And then a pensive sigh he drew, ‘
And looked completely best.
An’ when they took another bout,
He didn't even rise;
But drawed his red b anna out,
An’ wiped his weep n’ eyes.
I've been a sister, good an' true,
For live an’ thirty year;
I’ve done what seemed my part to do,
An’ prayed my duty clear;
But death will stop mv voice. I know,
For he is on my track;
And some day. I to church will go.
And never more come back. -.
And when the folks get up to sing-
Whene'ver that time shall be—
I do not want no lunar thing
A squeaiiu’ over me!

BY W. A. DES BBIEAI'.
“No,” she said as lfin anger,
When I asked her to be mine;
No, she said but said it only, '
That true love I might divine.
No! how coldly first it sounded.
Chilled my being through and through;
But so long and deeply gazed she,
What she really meant I knew.
- No! it chilled me but I answered,
Love, oh, love, do I confess;
And when I had thrice repeated,
“Hear me kindly," breathed she. "yes."
Yes, and then withjoy en folded
Round my being, round my life;
She who first said No, thus coldly,
Now is my sweet love, my wife.

BEAUTY 'A'I.‘ BILLIABDS.
There is a lady in this case.
. b
lugs, feeble murmurs of disincliualion, and
flunilyreluclautly yielding form the fashion-
able order of proceeding. The charm of it
all is that the original inlention is the same
as the ultimate action. thncc, then, this
folly ? Having been many times wretched-
ly bored by this sort of thing, I was now
correspondingly gladdcncd by the contrast.
Miss Tarlingford played well, and I
said so.
“Pretty well,” she answered, “but not so
' well as -I could wis .”
Shock Number Two. It is customary in
good society for tolerable performers to dis-
avow all praises, (secretly ' yearning for
more.) and lo nssail with invective their own
artistic accomplishments. Here was a young
lady who played well, and had the hardi-
hood to acknowledge it. This rather look
away my breath, and a vacuum beganlo
come under my waistcoat.
For three blissful days Miss Tariingford
and I were seldom separated. Her sister, a
pale, sedate maiden, of amiable appearance,
and her brolher, a small rude boy, of intru-
sive habits, and unguarded speech, I con-
sealed to undergo, for the sake of conven-
tional necessity. To the mother of the Tar-
lingford additional respect seemed due, and
was accorded. _
Three blissful days of sunshine, meadowy
rambles, forest explorations, the majestic
lrantjuilities of nature spiced with the sauce

times we took our morning happiness on

The puerile Tarlingford, interfering at
first, was summarily crushed. Aspiring to
equestrian distinctions, he wrought upon
malernal indulgence, until, not without mis-
givings, maternal anxiety was stifled, and
«with injunctions that we‘ should hover pro-
iectingly near him, he was set forth a thorn
in our sides. In half -an hour he was acci-

“Mother, we looked for him, and he was

“So I did," shouted this youth of open

Everybody laughed, and peace was re-

On the third evening, misery came to me
in an envelope post-marked New York.
Mr DEAR Proms :—“I shall be with
you the night after you receive this. En-
gage a room for me. Have you seen any-
thing of a Miss Tarlingford ? Where are
you staying? You should know her. She
is very brilliant and accomplished, but re-

go no further, that we are betrothed.

I came upon one, directed in Lillivan’s

I thus discovered that my lines had fallen
in unpleasant places. I was fishing in a
preoccupied stream, and had got myself en-
tangled. .
I avoided the ' public table, and shrunk
fi'om society. During the whole of the next
morning I kept aloof from the temptations
of Tarlingford, and took to billiards.
In the afternoon, as I sat gloomily in my

The editor Of the C’z'gare is obliged to

of'lhe slafi‘, is absent canvassing a provin-

but to ask M. Timoleon Tariine, before

would have undertaken the command of the
