What can be more tender and beautiful than the following simple narrative As a stran ger w?nt into the church yard of a pretty vil lage, he beheld three children at a newly made grave. A hoy about ten years of age was bu sily engaged in placing plants of turf about it; whilst a girl, who appeared a year or two ol der, held in her apron a few roots of wild flow ers. The third child, still younger, was sit ting on the grass, watching with thoughtful look the movements of the other two. 1 hey wore pieces of crape on their straw hats, and a few other signs of mourning, such as are sometimes worn by the poor who struggle be tween their poverty and the afflictions. The girl soon began planting some ot her wild flowers around the head of the grave, when the stranger addressed them: "Whose grave is this, children, about which you are so busily engaged!" "Mother's grave sir," said the boy. "And did your father send you to place these flowers around your mother's gravel" "No, sir, father lies here loo, and little Willy and sister Jane." "When did they die?" "Mother was buried fortnight yesterday, sir, but father died last winter; they all lie here." "Then who told you to do this!" "Nobody, sir," replied the girl. "Why then do you do it" They appfred at a loss for an answer; but the stranger looked so kindly at them, that at length the eldest replied, as the tears startled into his eyes, "O we did love them, sir." "Then you put these grass turfs and wild flowers around where your parents are laid, because you love them "Yes, sir," they 5ill eagerly replied. What can be more beautiful than such an exhibition of children honoring the memory of departed parents. Reader, are you an orphan! never forget the de?r parents who loved and cherished you in your infant days. Ever i member their parental kindness. Honor their From the Saturday Courier. STMP ATHY. Of all the tender ties divine, That link our bosoms and refine ; Far dearest to the gentle soul, O, Sympathy, thy sweet control. Deep in the lone and wintry dell, Pale mothers talk of thee, Where care, and cold, and hunger dwell, With pain and penury ; And there thy tears forever flow, Responsive to the voice of wo. Yet high in hall and festal bower, Thy gay dominion rules the hour ; The joys we feel, the smiles we see, Are kindled in the heart by thee. While mirth and music, dance and song, And sport and wit abound ; Thy chords invisible prolong, And bear the bliss around : Bright memories at thy bidding start, And leap in laughter from the heart. When War uplifts his reeking hand, And terror treads the clouded land ; Some patriot strikes thy tremulous tie, And gathering millions dare to die. Thus wildly flew th' infectious sense Of wrong and outrage done ; When murmuring nations rose to fence The path of Washington ; And generous hearts rejoiced to be The martyrs of our liberty. The light of each immortal name, Enrobes thy soft ethereal frame ; And high thy kindling bo3om swells At all the sage historian tells. For thee the dreams of Genius twine Fresh garlands of the spring, The plume of heavenly die is thine, On Fancy's starry wing, And lovely worlds ideal lie Beneath thy meditative eye. O, what were life if void of thee ! A sullen, dead, Lethean sea, Whose bitter waves refuse to flow, And thorns forever round it grow. Thy native home is far above, Egeria of the sky ; Thou didst inspire the Prince of Love, And bring him down to die. O'er Zion's fate he wept with thee, And bore his cross to Calvary. And when by lonely hills we stray, Or view the stars so far away ; When through the peaceful heart we feel A sense of deep devotion steal, Oh ! is it not thy thrill divine, Sweet from the smiles of God ! By radiant thrones where angels shine, Through climes by seraphs trod, Sent trembling down the endless chain, That winds through niture's vast domain. INFLUENCE OF A WIFE. "Why do you keep me for so long a time at the door1" said Edward F , passionate ly, to his wife. The night had passed, but its cold wind had entered the house, as Mrs. F , with sorrowful heart undid the lock. "It is late, Edward, and I could not keep from slumbering." He said nothing in return to this, but flung himself into a chair and gazed intently on the fire. His son climed upon his knee, and put ting his arm round his father's neck, whisper ed, "Papa, what has mama been crying for!" Mr. F started and shook off his boy, "I have been considering," he replied calm ly, "and 1 am determined to try my father. He loved me when I was a boy; he was proud of me. It is true, I have acted disholiorably by him, and should, no doubt, have ruined him. Yesterday I spoke harshly of him, but I did not then know myself. Your deep af fection, my dear wife, has completely altered me. I will make up for it I will, indeed I will. Nay, don't grieve me in this way this is worse to me than all! 1 will be back soon." The children appeared in the breakfast room. Mary was ready with her smile, and the boy was anxious for the notice of his fa ther. In a short time Mr. F. returned. "We must sink, mv love! he will not assist me. He upbraided me: I did not, 1 could not answer him a word. He spoke kindly of you and our little ones, but he cast us off forever! The distressed man had scarcely said this. when a person rndely came in. The purport of his visit was soon perceived. In the name of F 's father he took possession ot the property, and had the power to make F. a prisoner. 'You shall not take rana awav," said the j little son, at the same time kicking at the offi cer. "Mama," whispered Mary, "must my fa ther go to prison Won't they let us go too!77 "Here comes my authority," said the depu ty sheriff. The elder Mr. F. doggedly placed himselfin a chair. "You shall not take my papa away," cried out the little boy to his grandfather. " W hatever may have been my conduct, sir," said the miserable Edward, "this is un kind in you. I have not a single feeling for myself; but my wife my children ! you have no right to harass them with your presence." "Nay, husband," responded Mrs. F., think not of me. Your father cannot distress me. I have not known yon from your childhood, as he has done, but he shall see how I can cling to you in your poverty. He has forgotten his youthful days he has lost sight of his own thoughtless years." The old gentleman directed his law agent to leave the room, lie then slowly and ner vously answered thus: "Madam, I have not forgotten my own thoughtless days. I have not forgotten that I once had a wife as amiable and noble minded as yourself, and 1 have not forgotten that your husband was her favorite child. An old man hides his sorrows, but let not the world think him unfeeling, especially as that world taught him to do so. The distress that I have this moment caused, was premeditated on my part. It has had its full effect. A mortal gets avice by single steps, and many think the victim must return by degrees. I know Edward's disposition, and that with him a single leap was sufficient. The leap he has taken. He U aoain in my memory as the favorite of his poor mother; the merry, laughing-eyed young son of a pshaw of a a old fool! for what am I crying" "Little mary had insensibly drawn herself towards the old philosopher, and without tit t ring a word, pressed his hand, and put her handkerchief to her eyes. The boy, also, now left his parents, and walked up to the old man's keens, and turning up his round cheek, said: "Then you wont take papa away" "No you little impudent rascal; but I'll take you away, and wen your mother comes for you, I will treat her so well that I'll make your father follow after." Thus came happiness at the heels of ruin. If husbands more often appreciated the exqui site and heaven-like affections of their wives, miny happier firesides would be seen. "One in love and one in mind," should be the mot to of every married pair. And fathers would many a time check improvidences, if they were to make use of reflection and kindness, rather than prejudice and strictness. deputy and president of the council of minis ters, the highest point to which a citizen can aspire. On what a trifle does the fortune of ft man sometimes depend. But for the simple incident of the pin, M. Lafite would, perhaps, never have entered into the house of M. Per regaux ; another employer might hot hire pened to him so wide a field of action, tod ins talents and intelligence would not havs led to such magnificent results. Little did M. Perrcgaux think that the hapd which would pick tip a pin was that of a man, gen erous to prodigality in doing f ood A hand al ways open to honorable misfortune. Never were riches placed in better hands -never did. banker or prince make a more noble use of them. French paper: Judging from Appearances. A good story is told by a Yankee editor in illustration of the folly of judging from ap perances. A person dressed in a suit of home spun cloth, Stepped into a house in Boston on some business, where several ladies were as sembled in an inner room. One of the com pany remarked, in a low tone, that a country- man was in waiting, and agreed to have some fun. The following dialogue ensued : I v ou re rrora the country, 1 suppose V Yes, I'm from the country.' s, Well, siri what do you think of the city V 4 It's got a tarnal sight of houses in it, 1 1 expect there are a great many ladies where you come from.' Oh, yes, a woundy sight ; jist for all the world like them,' pointing to the ladies. ' And you are quite a beau among them, no doubt.7 Yes, I beaus 'em to meetin', and about, 1 May be the gentleman will take a glass of wine,' said one of the company. 'Thankee ; dont care if I do.' ' But you must drink a toast.' " I eats toast, what auntDebby makes but as to drinkin', I never seed the like. What was the surprise of the company to1 hear the stranger speak clearly as follows : ' Ladies and Gentlemen : Permit me to wish you health and happiness, with eYery other blessing the earth can afford, and I ad vise you to bear in mind, that we are often deceived by appearances. You mistook me, by my dress, for a country booby ; I, from the same couse thought these men were gentle men. The deception is mutual. I wish oil good evening. The ltoud to Fortune. When M. Lafite came to Paris, in memory by doing those things which you gain and said with violence, "Get to bed, sir; what business has your mother to let you be up at this late hour" The poor child's lower lip pouted, but he wa3 at the time too much frightened to cry. His sister silently took him up, and when he reached his bed his heart discharged itself in noisy grief. The mother heara his crying, and went to him but she soon returned to the parlor. She leaned upon her husband and thus addressed him: "Edward, I will not upbraid you on account of your harshness to me but I implore you not to act in this manner before your children. You are not, Edward, what you used to be ! Those heavy eyes tell of wretc'.idness as well as bad hours. You wrong me, you wrong yourself, thus to let my hand show 1 am your wife, but at the same time let your heart know singleness in matters of moment. I am aware of the kind of society in which you have late ly indulged. Tell me, Edward, for heaven's sake tell me ! we are ruined; is it not so" Edward had not a Word to say to his wife; but a man's tears are more awful than his words. "Well, be it so, Edward! our chi'sdrenmay suffer from our fall, but it will redouble my exertions for them. And as for myself, you do not know me if you think that circumstan ces can lessen my feelings for them. A wo man's love is like the plant which shows its strength the more it is trodden on. Arouse yourself, ray husband ; it is true your father has cast you off, and you are indebted to him in a serious .sum; hut he is not all the world only consider your wife in that light." A slight tap was now heard at the door, and Mrs. F. went to ascertain the cause. She returned to her husband; "Mary is at the door; she says you always kissed her before she went to bed." !' My child, my child," said the father, " God bless you I am not very well Mary. Nay, do not speak to me to-night. Go to rest now; give me one of your pretty smiles in the morning, and your father will be happy a 1778, the extent of his ambition was to find a situ ation in a banking-house; and to attain this object he called on M. Perregaux, the rich Swiss banker, to whom he had a letter of re commendation. This gentleman had just ta ken possession of the hotel of Mddle. Gur mard, which had been put up to lottery by that lady, and won by the fortunate banker. It was to this charming habitation, which has since been demolished, that M. Laffite paid his first visit in Paris, and, as it were, took his first step in the Parisian world. The young provincial poor and modest, timid and anxious entered by that gateway which had witnessed so many of the gaieties of the last century. He was introduced into the boudoir of the danseuse, then become the cabinet of the banker, and there modestly stated the ob ject of his visit. " It is impossible for me to admit you into my establishment at least for the present," replied the banker ; " all my offices have their full complement. If I re quire any one at a future time, I will see what can be done; but in the meantime I advise you to seek elsewhere, for I do not expect to have a vacancy for some time." With a dis appointed heart the young aspirant for em ployment left the office, and while with a downcast look he traversed the courtyard, he stooped to pick up a pin which lay in his path, and which he carefully stuck in the lapel of his coat. Little did he think that this trivial action was to decide his future fate; but so it was. From the window of his cabinet, M. Perregaux had observed the action of the j young man. the Swiss banker was one ct those keen observers of human actions who ! estimated the va ue of circumstances appa HOW TO GET A FEATHER BED. The following is an extract from Lover's "Handy Andy :" "In carrying off even the Small thing of a feather bed, Jack Tate, the bowld burglar; showed the skill of a high practitioner, for hs descended the stairs backwards.' "Backwards!" exclaimed Harry Hogan; "what's that for" "You'll see by and by," said Goggin9. -"He descended backwards, when suddenly he heard a door opening, and a laymale voice exclaimed- "Where are you going with that bed 1 "I'm going up stairs with it, ma'am," said Jack, whose backward position favored his lie, and he began to Walk up again. "Come dowp," said the lady, "I want no bed here man." "Mr. Suilivan, ma'am, sent me home with it himself," said Jack. "Come down, I tell you," said the lady; in a rage, "there's no Mr. Sullivan lives here." "I beg your pardon, my lady, said Jack Tate, turning round, and marching off with the bed fair and aisy. "Well, there was a regular shilloo, in the house when the thing was found out, and cart hopes wouldn't howld the lady for the rags she was in." Anecdote of a Stammerer. During the revo lutionary, war, drafts were made for the mili tia to recruit the continental arms, a certain captain gave liberty to the men who were drat ted from his company to make their objections, if they had any, against going into the ser vice. Accordingly; one of them, who had an impediment in his speech, came up to the captain and made his bow. "What is your objection" said the cap tain. " I ca-a-ant go," answered the man, be cause 1 st-strstutter." ''Stutter!" says the captain, u you don't go' there to talk, but to fight." " At, but they'll p-p-put me upon sr-ff- guard, and a mar. go ha-ha-half a mile before I can say wh-wh-who goes theret" "Oh ! that is no objection, for they will plare one other sentry with you, and he cart challenge if you can fire." "Well, b-b-but I may be taken and run thro the g--guts before I can cry qu-qu-qu-quar-ter!" This last plea prevailed, and the captain, oat of humanity, laughed heartily, dismissed him. Iron Steamer for the South. A new iron, steamboat arrived here yestetday by way of the Delaware and Raritan Canal from New York. The model of the craft is beautiful. It was built at West Point, is constructed on the Hunter principle, and is intended for naviga tion at the South where it is now bound. Philadelphia Timet. Naval.- The U.
