OR,
TUK TEST OF A MOTHER'S CONFIDENCE.
One of the first settlers ia Westers New
York wn Judge V , who esUbliahed
hiinaelf in Wbitestcwn about tour miles
from lTlica. lie brought his family with
him, among whom wna a widowed daugh
ter with an only child a fine boy about
four, years old. Yoq. will recollect, the
country around was an unbroken forest.
and thta was tue domain of the aavsge
tribes.
Judce W saw the necessity of keep
ing on good terms wian the JndiAas, for as
be was nearly lne, he waa completely at
their mercy. . Accordingly he lock every
opportunity to asuure them of his kindly
(eeliriga, nd to secure, tbeir goodwill ia
retura. Several or tbe cbiets came to see
him, and aUre,iprared pacific. But there
waa one thing that troubled him; aa aged
chief of the Unrtda trine, and one of, great
'notriee. . tw mideu at a dietaiw
otaen mdes, hd not yet been to see . bim,
m r could be ascertain the Tiewa aad feel
ings of the sachem in respect to his settle
ment ia that region. ' At last he sent him a
message, and the answer was that tbe chief
wuuld viail him on the morrow.
True to bis appointment, tbe sachem
came;- Jude W -received - him with
marks of respect, ttnd introduced his wife,
h' daughter andlittl b1y. The interview
that followrd was interesting, t'pon its re
sult the jujge was convinced his security
miht depend, and he was therefor ei
ceedingly anxious to. make a favoraUe im
prrsion upon the di -tingiiinhed chief. He
expressed his desire to settle in the country,
li live on terms of amit) and good fellow
ship with the Indians, and to be useful to
ihem by ititroducing among them the arts
of civil, znlion.
" The chief hoard him out, and then said
"Brother, you ask much. What pledge
can you give of your faith Tlie white
man's word mar be good to the white man,
yet it is wind when spoken to the Indian."
"I have put mj life in your hands," said
the Judge; "is not that an evidence of my
good intention.? 1 have plnced Confidence
in the Indian, and w ill not believe that he
will bus-ir betray the, trust that is thus
reposed." v Vv :" ' ,v
"So nrueh is well, replied the chief; "ibe
Indian wnrrj'irt
dencc; if you will trust bim he will Irust
you. Let ih; liy go with me to my wig
.wain I will bring him back in three days
with my answer." . "
U an arrow bn.d pierced the bosom of the
moil.er, she cmld not have felt a deeper
pnng thin went te her heart as the Indian
made this proposal. She sprang forward,
and running to the boy, who stood at the
side of ibe sHchem; looking into his face
with pleased wonder and admiration, abe
encircled him in her arms, and, pressing
him to her bosom, was about to fly from
the room, A gloomy and ominous frown
came over the sachem's brow, but he did
not speak. "
Bui not so with Judge W- He
knew tbe success of their enterprise of
the lives of his family depended on the
decisiorr'of a moment.
"Stay, stay, my daughter," he said. 'Bring
back the boy, 1 beseech you. He is not
more dear to you than to me. I would not
risk a hair on hi head. But, my child,
be must go with the chief. God will watch
over him. Hey will be aa aafe in the sa
chem's wigwam as beneath our own root."
: Tbe agonized mother hesitated for a
moment; she then slowly returned, placed
the boy on the knee of the chief, and kneel
ing at hia feet, burst into a flood of tears.
The gloom passed from the sachem's brow,
but be said not a word. He rose and de
pal ted. . . , -j.
We shall not attempt to describe the
agony of the mother for the ensuing days.
She was agitated by contending hopes and
fears. In the night she awoke, from sleep,
seeming to hear the screams of the child
calling on ita mother for help. But the
time-wore slowly away, and the third, day
came. How slowly did ihe hours, pass!
The morning waned away; noon arrived;
yet the sachem came not. There waa S
gloom over the whole household. The
mother .was pale and silent . Judge , W.

S : THE -MAKING U1V 1
"I wish I had'nt said id Dear me! what
would I eive if I could only recall it?" mur
mured Mrs. Leeds, as she leaned her face
down on the arm she had rested on the
breakfast table, while the thick tears aob-
bed up in ber blue eyes.
She was a pretty little woman, this wife
of a year, (hough tears dimmed her face,
and the trouble at her heart abut off the
rosea from ber cheeks, that cbeerlesa- NoW
vember morning, with the dull-brownish
clouds piled low about tbe sky, and the
noarse wind cracking and crumbling through
trie trees outside.
"To think, too," continued the lady, rais
ing her bead once more, and abstractedly
lilting tbe cover off the chioa tea-pot "he
should have spoken so crosstr and sharolv
to roe, just because I said I should like that
oe w velvet carpet at Mver's. WelL 1 don't
believe, for my part, there was ever such a
thing ark woman satisfied with what she
baa rot.- I think it was real unkind of
hurt, any war: and sothins in the world
could have made me believe, before I mar
ried Henry Leeds, that he would have us
ed that tone of words in spesking to me.
uut l cuess 1 waa more to blame than be.
alter all i Kir I said a good many satirical
things.' I almost wish any tongue had been
eut off before they paaned my lips; but
somehow my temper cot the better of me.
and he went off without one kind ward, or
even si'"? ma F. Htw waa aawthaw wit
break of tears. .
"He won't be home till nlchf, and how
can I ever get through this itmg. dreary,
dismal day, Knowing all the time llais an
gry with me ; he who has been such a true,
trenvrous, loving husband I How I wish I
could see him, just a minute, and forgetting
an my prnie. win a my arms aoout nisneCK
and say, ' Hal, I'm really sorry ; won't you
forgive me this once ?' and I will too.
" The pretty lady Fprurig from the. table,
a new determination heightening the faint
color in her cheeks, and bringing back the
sparkle to her blue eyes.
I'll take the omnibus, and go right down
ta the office, and male up with bim ; see
ifldoVL"
The young merchant was leaning, with
a weary, half-dejected sort of expression,
over hia desk, about which were scattered
hills, drafts, letters, in endless confusion.
Sonmhing had gone wrong, ilia clerks
knew this when he came into his store that
roorniii,s"jj(Hmy and retirent, so through
ly unlike his usual brisk, energetic, jovial
manner, that always onrried sunshine into
the d;trk wardrooms. Even lite porter felt
something of this, fur he stood at a respect
ful distance from his employer,, and didn't
indulge in any of his old stitle jokes.
. Suddenly the merchant iiwiked up. and
saw his wife making her wav through the
store; -"Straight tit his deskr How pretty she
looked that mornifig, in the little tasteful
velvet hat, with its crimson trimmings about
her cheeks, that were so charmingly be
coming, and that hnlf smile dimpling the
rosy, ttmall mouth, that he could hardly be
lieve had said such very unkind things to
him only a few hours before.
Now Harry Leeds was very proud of
hi wife, andVif, thee videotadmjration which
her occasional advent at the store always
excited. He'rose up to meet her, tbe sur
prise in hia face half chasing the cloud
therefrom. She came close to him.
Harry," whispered the soft, eager, tim
id voice, " Fm so verrv sorry I said those
cross thing to you this mora ing ; 1 was
greatly to blame, and they've made me un
happy ever since ; ao I've come clear down
here to make up, and hear you say once
more that you love me."
The cloud waa all gone. There was a
world of fond tenderness that lookeddown
from those dark eyea on the lady.
Why, bless you, Adeline I you haven't
come clear off here for that f I was more
ta blame than you, a great deal, but some
business matters were troubling me, and
I'm a touchy fellow, I guess, apy how." ,
"No; you re not; 1 felt all the time that
iron were displeased with me. .But yon do
ove me just aa well as ever 7 r
That smile, that glance, would have sat
isfied an v wife.
-She is a jewel, any. how," murmured
Harry Leeds to himself, after she had
lett, as he. arranged his disordered desk,
with a face as changed and bright as the
sky outside, for the sun had suddenly plung
ed through the clouds.' " If we ha ve pretty
good sales this week, I'll just get her that
carpet for a Christmas present see if I
don't." ' : : r . ' ..l
f Our hearts must be more contracted than
Our eyes, or we should net murmur at
every little cloud, which we can plainly
see is but a speck in aa universe of light.

position of body is a favorite wiih thei, in
the simple promenade in the garden or gal

street,in standing on the street, or in public
worship. Many persons spend a large por

And we see no reason why children should
not be taught from tbe 'vjegirming to write
and sew and knit, in a posiiioa requiring
the lower sortion of the bud v And tbe boul
ders to touch tbe back of the chair all thu
time. A Very common position in sitting,
esneeiallv ainonar men. is with tha shoulders
against the chairback with a space pf sever
al inches between Jba ehairnack and the
lower portion of the spine, givirfg tlie body
the shape of a half hoop ; it is the instants

sition assumed by any consumptive on sit

of the will ; hence parents s!uld regard
such a positron in their children with ppr

best position after eating a regular meal ia
to nave the bands behind tbe back, the bead
erect, in moderate locorrtotion. and in the

an hour spent ia this way after meals, at

WHICH IS THE ILAPPIEST SEASON.
At affestal party of old ami young, tbe
question was asked, " which season, of life
is the happiest?" After being freely dis
cussed by lh guests, it wss referred for
answer to tbe host, fjpon whom was the
burdeu of forescpre years. He1 asked if
they had noticed a grove of trees before
the dwelling, and said, " When the spring
comes, and in tbe soft air the bud are
breaking on tlie trees, and they are cover
ed with bloasoms, 1 think. How beautifnl
is spring ! And when the summer comes,
and covers the trees with its heavy foliage.
and singing birds are among the branches.
I think, Mow beautuul is summer! When
the autumn loads them with golden fruit,
and tbeir leaves bear tbe gorgeous touch
of tbe frott, I think, Uow beautiful ia au-
utmn! And when it is senr winter, and
there is neither foliage nor fruit, then I look
up through the leaflets branches, aa I never
could till now, and see the' stars'shine."

: AFFECTION. ' .
Vie sometimes meet with men who seem to
thiok.that soy indulcoci of afiertjaate fetutog
is weakness. They will morn from a journrv
and greet their family with a distant .-dignity',
and thva atnni thetr-children with the wld and
lofty splenSur of an loeeerg, Mrretindtid with 1U
brukea fragtneots. There is hardly a more un-
aatural tight oa earth thin one of thoie faniihrs
without a heart. . A father had better extinguish
bb boy' eyea thao to take away his heart. Who
that ha experteuced the joyt of friendship, and
values syir.pttby and afioctiuB, would not rather
lose all that is baauuful in nature s scenery thin
to be robbed of tha hidden treasure of bis heart ?
Who would not, rather follow his child to the
gra.ve than entomb hit parental affection ? Cbcr-
tab then your beat affection. Indulce in the
wanil aod guohing emotion of frnternal love.
Tbink it oota weakness. ". Teach your to love
the rose snd the robin, to love their parents, to
love their God. Let it be the studied object .of

CAL'CillT IX A TRAP.
It was latelv -'that .a strange event oc
curred in the village ot Clmmpicnolles,
Itranee, One of the inhabitants had dnir
a pit for the purjxse "of Catching a wolf,
and, iiltt-r covering it, put on the top for at
traction, a living goose;- Another inhabi
tant of the -village saw from a distance the
goose, fluttering and struggling to get loose.
i hp ouscuruy oeing twingiit; not per
mitting hun to distinguish the trap; he ap
proached and fell to the bottom of the-' pit.
The pit was eight or ten feet, deep and tbe
sides were perpendicular.' Great was' the
astonishment of llie tnan, and greater yet
was hia embarrassment, at finding himself "
in that position; and it was not until after
having lor soniS time c&UmI in vain ttr'-
help that he resolved to wait patiently for '
day light, and meanwhile make himself
comfortable as possible But hardly had
he taken thia resolution when be felt a
heavy weight fall on I his shoulders. This
was a woll, which, attracted bv the bait
had also been Caught by tbe trap. You -can
easily' imagine tbe fright of tbe nnfor- -
tunate man. indeed, the terror of tbe lour
legged animal waa not less, for it retreated
at once and laid itself down in one .corner "
and did. not move during tluA night. At
length day broke, and .to the poor com- "-
E anion of. the wolf it seemed time for it to
reak, for the night had appearejlo him .
terr ibly long. The owner of the trap came
early to see What he bad caught, and found .
his neighbor in the pit. He drew out the
unfortunate man more dead than alive ; but
be was less generous toward the wolf, w hicly
he killed notwithstanding his exemplary
conduct through the night. I
