In tht ? pring of 1S'2 1, 1 contracted an acquaintance, in one of the cities of the South, with a gentleman who had removed from Fngl.tnd to this country, with two small children, the one a boy often, and the other a girl of nine years of age. These children were the most lovely benys I ever saw. Their extreme beauty, their deep and artless affection, and their frequent bursts of childish and innocent mirth, made them as dear to me as if I had been the companion of their infancy. They were happy in themselves, happy in each ether, and in the wh ile world of life and nature around them. I had known the family but a few months, w hen my friend was compelled to make a sudden and unexpected voyage to South America. Hi feelings were embittered by the thoughts of leaving bis motherless children behind h im, and as I was on the point of embark
ing fr Liverpool, promised to take them to
their W lends and relations.
My departure was delayed two weekr. Daring that period, I lived under the same
roof w ith the little ones that had been con
signed to mv charge. For a few days they
were pensive, and made frequent enquiries
fr their absent father ; but their sorrows
tvere easily assuaged, and regret for hi
absence changed into a pleasant anticipation of his return: The ordinary sorrows
of childhood are but dews upon the eagle's plumage, which vanish at the moment tin proud bird springs upwards into th" air ft woo the beautiful flashes of the morning.
The day of our departure at last arrived.
and ivc set sail on a quiet afternoon ol
summer. It was a scene of beauty, and
rr.y heart fluttered as w ildly and j.oulv
as tho wnm ol n von nit eiri r.i pnng-"iiiH. It seemed as if" man's control bad stopped

sea : I pointed to her the star, on v. him
he had always loved to look : but heron-
v answer was a sigh and I returned wi'h
u r to tin; bed-side of her brother. I per
ceived, instantly, that he was th ing. There
wp.s no visible iiug'MC but th5 him was
creeping over his eye, and the hectic flush
he took her seat, and then, as usual, let
her melancholy eye rest fixedly upon his
countenance. SMiiMeniv, his looks niintettod for a moment, and he so. ko his sis'ei's
name. She replied with a passionate carers, and looked up to my face, as if to itn-
pi
uig, the next moiniii f, to make a general
assault. The. quiet rummer evening came
oil ; thesettiiig sun shone forthc last time on the enow-white walls, and "listening pinnacles of the Temple roof. Titus had
retired to rest : and, suddenly, a wild and
terrible ery was heard, and a man came nislon'i jn announcing that the Temple
was on fire. Some of the besieged, not
withstanding the repulse in the mornin
h id sallied out to attack the men who were
busily employed in extinguishing the fin
about the cloi?ters. The Romans not
aertdy drove them back, hut, entering the
a small part of the outer cloister, in w hich
i.OOO unarmed and defenceless people,
with women and children, had taken refuge.
These poor wretches, like multitudes of
others, had been led up to the lempie by a filse, prophet, who hail proclaimed that
God had commanded all the Jews to nc, nil
to the Temple, where he would display bis Almighty power to save his people.
The soldiers set fire to the building: evcrv
soul perished.

uttered one simultaneous shriek, and grasp

signs to his soldiers to quench the fire ;
his voice was drowned, and his signs un
noticed, in the blind confusion. The legionaries either could not, or would not hear ; fhey rushed on, trampling each other down in their furious haste, or, stumbling over the crumbling ruins, perished with the ene ny. Each exhorted the other, and

She inquired with simplicity and eagerness, whether, in the far land to which we v ere going, that same bright
star would be visible, and seemed to regard
it as another friend, that was to be with
her in her long and lonely journey.
