Lizzie was a child whom every -body loved : not i only; because she wti.s so pretty, lively, aud 'iiititi- gent, but for her being so swev-t, geiii-e, and peaceable- so truly good.,. Liizie bad" two brothers a few years older, than herWelf,.who were very fond, j jessed them so raariv times last night. Ed Of her, and of whom shevvas very fond. These j die take care ofiny flowers; and. boys, don't miss three childrenalwavs went to school and to-church together, aiid played ki perfect sigrek?ment. It Jiappeneti. tiat one suuny Autiilnn afternoon th hie y had a visit from two little "gir!&, tiieir c juin-, r rho lived about a utile distant. They had a wild, i ' joyous time ; they j.iayeii lu-.the yard, in the barii, ,ud all Over the! house. Mr, fctbiie, who was a kind, pleasaut. woman, looked on and laughed, if she did not miiigle in tkeir sjort. : She got them aniee yearly tea by themselves: and when the visit oirs after one last jnerry game, were about leaving, she said' to Lizzie. ' ; ' , .' 'Yjjur brothers.' will go home with Alice and - Celia You may. go with them "as far as-the mill ; but be sure stop Uiere, and conie lidme with jour lather ',. ;- ' . : V " - . 1 . j ' . ' j As the cousins set put, laughing and frolicking n- long, Mrs. 'Stone stood In the, little front portico of her cottage, looki ngi after theuu iis they went, down the lane and thinking f liat handsome, arid happy, and, atovo all, hat good-ehirdreii they were. She ( smiled at Lizzie's ahectioiiaie way of taking leave . - of her, thougli jshe wa-s to Hb gone so-short a time. Lizzie never parted from her '".mother, even for a r half-hour, widiuut kissinglier lovingly, and biddirg her irood-bve in a voice as sweet ruid tender as tiio eooin of a dove. Now, as Mrs. 5to;ie went into the house, she said sottly to nerelt, ' lt ts neariy ten years since God gave me that child, and she has never yet caused me one lifomcnt's sorrow." - The children played so much along the.roaU,-and stopped so otteu to p'ck f!overs and berries, that it was nearly dark when they reached ihe .iinll'. Then Jwhh the girls came to part, they had yet so manyrthiugs to tell 'to each other, so many! .tnYTta tions to give, so many gyfclbye's. to say,'-it w,as iio wonder that they iiiigevl a while. I k It seemed that Lizie could not let her couins go. She parted from tlicm, m her loving way, m ' mauy j tiines that her brother grew a lime impati- ent, and George, the eldest, said, .- - ; ' .'. . Why, sister, I don't see Lut all Ned aud 1 will have to help you in your kissing, or you'll never get tlirough." ! ' 1 Then Alice and Celia, blushing and laughing, broke away from their cousin, arid ran fast down a h little hill towards their home. Ike boys sopn ovjer- took tliem ; abU Lizzie, niter vatchij)g tne group a while, aid thinking -how ias (jtjd to tve her the? din it niHde.)aiii by the dartuess ; for night was fast corainir or. - She CRlled her father's name, and he answered ; tiut the maeliiiieryinadeo much; noise that slie did-net lie.r. Ihinking that he haU already gone,- she turned to gt home, alone. She A took- a Vway she had often .safely taken, over the ' fluwoj' ilia great water-wheel. Bnt to-night she was bevjrldered lost her footing, and fell otf on to the wheel which whirled her down, crushing and tearing her in a shocking manner I It happened .that just at tiiKt moment her father, thinking that -Lizzie had been sent .to cali him home, stopped the ' mill, and began to search for her. Led by her cries, f the came to; the wheels and there found what had , "occurred. " '. " Are you badly hurt, my daughter F he asked, - m great gnei and terror.. . v . Yes, lather, I seem to be all crushed to pieces. and I cannot ttir ; but I thmk I sh.tll live till you get me out. Leave me here, and go fur help." ..' ' . The neighborhood was soon rousea, anu many .men hurried, with saws and axes, to the mill. lut they found that only one or two ould work at a time inputting away the strong heavy timbers, and thas it would be some hours tetore Lizzie could be taken from the cruel place where she was held so fast and crushed sV dreadfully ; and they said that - to" move the wheil backward or forward, might kijl her at once. V- - . ; ' "Whon Mr Stonp 'came, one of the men let -. down a light into the wheel so that she could sop- - uci jwi buiiu. . lieu Sue Sitn jjiiuvo """ t and the Weeding arm held toward her, she shriek ed and cried bitterly. But Lizzie called up to Lei las sweetly, and cheerfully as she-had ever spoken " 4u her life, and said, . ' .pon't cry,!mother ! They will get me out be fore long ; keep up good courage, and pray to God for me." . And io the continued to talk, hour after hour. jrocKrv such atriabw cuusius, uch ntitp brotlters, and such !- . dear parentstta 16ve turned aWi vent into the ' She found it troinc and almost friylitened by while the men kept cdtting and sawing at the great timbers ! so 6he cheered and comforted her parents, and her poor brothers, when they too canwi to the mill. .' ' j i ." Once her voice grew very low and indistinct then it ceased altogether ; the doctor looked down, and said she had fainted away, and they sprinkled water upon her. As soon as she revived, she began again to. say " comforting things, and to beg her mother and brothers not to cry. . She said she did not suffer so much pain as at first, and that she was sure she should live to be carried home. It was nearly midnight when the last timber that held her was sawed away, and a workman lifted her gently up ind laid' her in her father's aruiSi The pain of bding moved caused the poor child to faint again, and she did not jevive until she had been carried home. 'When she opened her eyes,sbe found herself on her own little bed, with her dear father, and mother and brothers at her side. ' . 1 The doctor carefully dressed Lizzia's wounds, arid gave her some wpium to make ' her sleep ; but he told her father and mother thatishe could not pos--sibly get well. When he heard the dreadful words, Mr. .Stone groaned, and covered his face with his hatuis ; aud, for a tew moments, Mrs. Stone jeaaed hr."had on . her husband's fchoulder, and cried. Then, lifting her eyes, and clamping her bands, she said, "Thy wiil, oh Lord, be done and went anil sat down calmly by Lizzie's side, audJ hatched her till she slept. . !:'."'' ! The ixor little girl remained sleeping roost of Ithe next day. She would often wake, and ak for water ; but she then fseemed hardly to know.where she was, or who was with her. Her cousins, Alice aud Celia, came to see- her; but she ' did not re cognize them, and they went away, sobbing bitter- Earlj- in the night, however, she awoke, and seemed tetter. She knew all about heraitd sniiled" on them, but said she must leave them, very soon. She told her fethex that she wanted to hear him pray on ee more '; and Mr. Stone knelt down by her bedside, and asked God to take safely honie.the little daughter lie had given them, and . thanked Ilini l'.'jr leaving hep with them so lonar. l Then Lizzie said to her mother, " Will you sing be just one verse of the hymn i love so much, ' Jesus sought ntc ;"'IIer mother, tried, but she could riot sintr for weeping; and Lizzie said, " Never mind-wht re i I am -going,, there is:, beautiful singing.

"Oh, then," said Lizzie, "it must be the win dows of GodYleautiful palace I see, with pleasant light shininr through. I am almostihere 1 Good bye, mamma, and papa, and brothers, good-bye !'' And, with a smile spread over her face, .and Lizzie stretched out her arms, looked upward, and so died ! When Lizzie lay in her coffin, that smile was on her. sweet face still brighter and purer than ' the Wlhite roses. 'that lay tfpon her pillow and Mrs, Stone tried not to Jet her tears fail upon it; for she. said, " God lists taken back a little angel.
