The clothing of this unhappy a.nily w as scarcely sufficient for a summer day, and the mother feared to put her children into their wretched beds, least they should literally freeze before morning. With weeping eyes she looked around her and darkness and doubt eamo over her spirit. Why did divine Providence make such an unequal distribution of the poods of this world to mankind t Why mu?l she and her children perish with want, while so many around thcni were rolling in case and luxury ? She had trusted in ihe Lord for many years, and always found him faithful to his promise; and why did be row forsake her in her greatest need? While she was ruminating, a thought suddenly crossed her mind, and brought will) it a sort of sad comfort. The back yard of a wealthy neighbor joined bcr own, and a loose beard would

WHAT IS LOVE MKE.

How could she do a deed which she had always held in abhorrence? Put the image of her freezing children rose up before her, and snatching her arms full from the pile, she turned to depart ; suddenly the blackness of the aw ful deed she was -rommitting, surrounded her soul, and ihe exclamed, ''Lord, is it come to this! a thief, a midnight plunderer!

Nerved by this horrid picture, she grasped again at the fuel, and nearly reached her own door with the burthen, when she again cxtl amed, ''Lord, is it come io this! have I fallen so low! 1 cannot, I cannot!' and returned to ihe pile, she threw down the wood, and turned to depart; but (he same dreadful picture ro?e again before her mind, and ailing distractedly, her arms a third time, she made an effort to run. and farget what she was doing; but the power of moral and religious principle was so strong over her soul, that she could not hush its voice; and yielding to its salutary influence, she thing a third time the precious burthen from her arms as though it had been a poison serpent, and turning, she exclaimed, in the bitterness of a breaking heart, "I cannot I r:imirH n!

A man in Ohio was pursued lately by

a black snake. All at once it occurred

to him, just a? the reptile was prepar

"fair play is a jewel; I'll be just after

pultin you upon an frquel lootm. He started for the house, got a pair of shears, caught those that had shovel

beaks, and sheared them down to the calibre of those of the sharp beak, put them down, and said, "wag away, you spalpeens, I am tould this is a free country, where every man and beast, and bird are nquel so no exclusive privileges, my darlins, if you plase." A' zealous Clergyman had taken for his text these words "and Salan also came among them." At the moment of his reading the text, an old decrepid negro entering the sanctuary, supposed himself pointed at, and, with a degree of resentment, looking the Priest full in the face, retorted 'Vou grad to see your fadder!' A votary of St. Patrick, one day

found a light guinea, which he was o-

bliged to sell for eighteen shillings

Next day he saw another guinea lying

in the street. 'arrah,' says he, 'I'll have nothing to do w ith you, I lost three shil

wood, who was a physician, was relum

ing Irorn visiting a patient who was J mgeiously ill: and pas-ing near his wood bouse, bo h ai d a noise and stepped into a dark coiner to sec what was going on. He was greatly astonished when he recognised his neighbor; but his heart was greatly softened by what ho. swy and heard; and he said to himolf, "O wretched man that 1 am, thus to let Ihe poor be tempted when I have nidi an abundance." He filed his arm with wood, and sought the poor widow's door. She opened it, and how

An Irishman on his ariival at Boston

a few years since, sought employment

as a laborer, and hnalty obtained an en

gagement on one of the Islands in our

haibor. Pat had never seen a duck

in his life. Shortly after entering on

the discharge of Ins new duties, a brood of chickens and another of ducks were hatched, both by hens. The owner put both broods with onc hen, in order

to save the services of the other, and

told Pat, as be w as shoit of ureal, to be very saving in his allowance of feed ing them. Pat made a small dish of dough and commenced feeding his flock when he was struck with the fact, that about half had broad short beaks, and shoveled up the dough veryfast, while the others had very sharp beaks and got but little of the allowance.
