Oars Morris, (lie noted emotional ac trcu, on being asked for her views on the question, "Should women propose?" told of a woman of her acquaintance who had proposed to man and had been ac cepted by him. The woman was a breadwinner whose boundless energy, capacity for hard work and eye to the main chanco uiarkrl her out for success. She was quick to recog uize the dormant ability of the shy, re served man who sat beside hir at the boarding hou?ti table and the was impa tient at his lack of push. "He will let others use him sll bis life unless I take him in hand," khe said, and though she saw that he was secretly in love wiih the gentle, lovely little girl who hat opposite him at the table she marked him out for her own; proposed to bim and married him. She succeeded in pushing her husband to a high round of the fioanciul ladder, but there were many rifts in the lute of their domestic happiness She was a clever, Irillianl woman, who thought her time too valuable to be wasttd on the small details of boufi keeping and child training. She had to keep in touch with I the world of liieralure, art and fashion, he said, or win re would her work be? I So it ccme al'out that li e falher was ! the mother In that family. He it was who tight ar.d motuiog fuur.d time to I climb to thenurtcry, ti e uglicM, dulle.it, j barest lot m in the house, and, leaving I dignity ouuide the door, kiss and hug ' and romp wilh ihe time children, tel' them toiies, rueive thiir tmall confi. dences, comturi Hum m their grievances and latir on help them out iu hard tchool enrcihes. In return he was boundlessly loved by the irio, particularly the oldist cjrl, who by some stiange irony of fal treat 'y rcM tubled the sweet girl whom the Ulan had lovid. The oilier saw llii perfect love and ut.drrstundieg beiweeu I'ailur aud chil dren, arid it hurt and angered her t'h talked wnli a tone ol IHIIcroess at hir Sunday etmiug receptions of how much her hubband owed to ber "He never would have reached his position, she said, "if he hodu'l had me to lean upon sad push hiuj. He'd have been plod ding along at a salary yet." And her hu-baud, who bad a touch ot chivalry abuut him, wou d answer, wilh a palimt little smile: "Yes, my dear; your courage and clev erness bate been a treat assistance to me " . But when he was on his doathbed and 1 to Clau .Morris, a lifetime frier-d, he was speaking of his life as a failure, he said concerning his marriage : "You knew bowit happened. You have thought me ' weak because I accepted her. You can not judge. A woman canrol understand what a man feels in such a position I ; was young, inexpeiicoced. I had a great ' respect for women. Whea she proposed to me, I was so ash itued for her that I oould not have looked her in the face ' until I had said ia. "W ell, 1 have done uiy best, and to has she. She ia a goi d wi mao, clever and capable. I have accomplished more than I should have done without her But" he sighed heavily "what does it all amount to money, position, all?

STONEWALL JACKSON A POET, The following clipped from an with interest now. Doubtless it that the inobtrusive and hardy warrior, Stonewall Jackson, is a poet of no little ability, and that among the busy scenes and ar duous duties he has found leisure to gratify his taste for the beautiful in literature. J. lie following lines were written while Jackson was an artillery olhcer tween the United States and that MY WIFE AND CHILD. The tattoo beats the lights are gone, The camp around in slumber lies; The night in solemn pace moves on, The shadows thicken o'er the skies; But sleep my weary eyes hath Mown, And sad, uneasy thoughts arise. I think of thee, oh, dearest one, Whose love my early life hath blest Of thee and him our baby son Who slumbers on thy gentle breast. Uod of the tender, frail and lone, Oh, guard the tender sleeper's rest. And hover gently, and hover near To her, whoso watchful eye is wet To mother, wife the doubly dear, In whoso young heart have met Two streams of love so deep and clear Aud cheer her drooping spirits yet. Now, while she kneels before Thy Throno, Oh, teach her, ruler of the skies, That, while by Thy behest ulone, Earth's mightiest powers fall or rise, No tear is wept to Thee unknown, No hair is lost, no sparrow dies ! That Thou can'st stay the ruthless hands Of dark disease, and soothe its pain; That only by Thy stern commands The battle's lost, the soldier's slain That from the distant sea or land Thou bring'st the wanderer home again. And when upon her pillow lone, Her tear-wet cheek is sadly prest, May happier-visions beam upon The brightening current of her breast, No frowning look nor angry tone, Disturb the Sabbath of her rest. Whatever fate those forms may show, Loved with a passion almost wild By day by night in joy or woe By fears oppressed, or hopes beguiled, From every danger, every foe, Oh, God! protect my wife and child ! jr.

THE RIGHTEOUS NEVER FORSAKEN. (foil, Who Sent Manna From Heaven Can Provide For Us As He Did For Israel. It was Saturday night, and the wid ow of the Pine Collage sat by the blat ing fagots, with bet Qvc tattered children at her tide, endeavoring, by listening to the arllessoess of their prattle, to dissipate the heavy gloom that pressed upon bcr mind. For a year, her own feeble bands had provided for ber helpless family, for she had no supporter she thought of no friend in all the wide, unfriendly world around. But the mysterious Providence, the wisdom of whoso ways are above human comprehension, had visited ber with wasting sickness, and her means had bo- come exhausted. It was now, too, mid winter, and the snow lay heavy and deep through all the surrounding forests, while storms still seemed gatherioz in the heavens, and the driving wind roared lojidat tbe lofty pines, and rocked her puny mansion. Tbe herring smoked upon tbe coals be. fore her; it was the only article ol food she possessed, and no wonder her forlorn, desolate state brought up in ber lone bosom all the anxieties of a mother, when she looked upon ber children; and no wonder, destitute as she was, if she suffered the heart - swellings of despair to rise, even though she knew that He whose promise is to the widow od the orphan, can not forget His word. Providence had many years before taken away her eldest son, who went from bis forest home, to try his fortune on the high seas, since which tbe had beard no note or tidings of bim; and more recently, by the hand of death, He had deprived her of the companion and staff of her earthly pilgrimage, in the person of her husband. Yet to this hour she had been upborne; she had not only been able to provide for her little flock, but had never lost an opportunity of ministering to the wants of tbe miser able and destitute. The indolent may well bear with pov erty, while the ability to gaio sustenance remains. The individual who has but his own wants to supply; may suffer with fortitude the winter of waul; bis affec tions are not wounded, bis heart is not wrung. The most desolate in populous cities may hope, for charity haB not quite closed her hand and heart, and shut ber eyo on misery. But the industrious mother of helpless and depending chil dren tar trom the reach ol human charity, has none of these to console ber. And such a one was the widow of the Pine Cottage: but as she bent over tbe fire, and took up the last scanty remnant of food to spread before ber children, her spirits seemed to brighten up, as by one 8udd.cn impulse, and Cowper's beau tiful lines came uncalled across her mind. Judge not the Lord with feeble sense, But trust Him for his grace; Behind a frowning Providence He hides a smiling face. The smoked herring was scarcely laid upon the table, when a gentle rap at the door, aod loud barking of a dog, attrac ted the attcotioD of the family. Tbe children Sew to open it, and a weary traveler, in tattered garments and appar ently indifferent health, entered, and begged a lodging, and a mouthful of food; saying that it was now twenty-four hours since be had lasted bread. TLe widow's heart bled anew as under a com plication of distresses; for her sympathies lingered not around her fireside. She hesitated not even now; rest and shale of all she had she protTerrcd to the sttan ger. "We shall not be forsaken," said sbp, "or suffer deeper for an act of chari- The traveler drew near the board but when he saw the scanty fare, be raised his eyes towards Heaven with as- tooishment " and is this all your store? said he "and a sbaie ot Ibis do you offer to one who you know not? then never saw I charity belore! but madam said he, continuing, "do you not wrong your children by giving a part of your last mouthful to a stranger?" "Ah!" said the poor widow, aod the tear drops gushed ioto her evea as she said it, "I have a boy, I darling ton somewhere on the face of (be wide world, unless he be dead, and I only act towards you, as I would that others ahould act towards him. Qod, who sent manna from heaven can provide for ns aa he did for Israel and how ahould this night offend Him, if my ton should be a wanderer, destitute aa you, and He should have provided for him a home, even poor as this were I to turn you unrelieved away." Tbe widow ended, aod the stranger, springing from his seat, clasped her in bis arms "God indeed haa provided your ton a home and has given him wealth to reward the goodness of his benefactress my mother I Ob my motbei I" It was her long lost son; re turned to ber bosom from the Indies. He had chosen that disguise that he might the more completely suprise his family; and never waa surprise more perfect, or followed by a aweeter cup of joy. Tba bumble residence in the forest was exchanged for one comfortable, and indeed beautiful, ia the valley, and the widow lived long with her dutiful son, in the enjoymont of worldly plenty, and in Ihe delightful enjoyment of virtue, and at this doy the passer-by ia pointed to the willow that spreads its branches above bcr grave. A HONEYMOON CLOUD. Why th(! Bride Feared Her Hus band Did Not Love Her. '' It was pretty hard to have the honey moon clouded bil'urc we had been married two hours," complained a newly married man. "Fact is, though, the excitement of the wedding day took away the little seuso I bad remaining. "We were married at noon and, after dodging I lie customary rice and old shoes left fur the station. We had barely lime to catch the train, and I rushed up to the ticket window at once. Ibcn, once more, we bad to run the gauntlet of friends, who think it right to throw rice down one's collar and have it sift down into one's shoes. "We got into the train at last, and when it started I heaved a Bigh of relief. When the collector came round for tick ets, I handed mine over. After looking at it for a moment he ashed me if the ady was traveling with me. That was the last struw and I snapped out for him to mind bis own business. " 'That ia what I am trying to do,' be answered coolly. 'One more ticket please.' "Then it flashed upon me that in tin hurry and eicitement of the moment I had forgotten I had a wife. I paid the other faro aod tried to laugh it off, but the look that my wife gave me will linger witn me as long as i live, it took me two hours to argue ber out of the im pression that I didn't love her any more and she isn't fully satisfied yet."
