t THE JAMIER'8 PIBB8IDE.
Arpixna:ttt6 fire; one wlritty night,
Tlie fanner's rosy chlldiren sat: The &got lent Its blAzlng light,
Andznlrtli went roond, and harmless chat.
When, hark I.a gentle hand they hear . Lowtapplngatthebolteddoor, And thus tb gain their wlU ng ear, A feeble voice woa heard Implore:
¦" Cold l)lo^ llie blast across the moor, *    The sleet drives hissing in the wind; Von toilsome monntalnlles before, A droary^treeleas waste behind.
" My eyes are dim and weak with age ;
No rood, no path can I descry;    . And these poor rags 111 stand the ra«e
Of sueh a keon;'inclement sky. '¦
"So Ihlrit Iain, these tottering feet No more Ay palsied frame can bear;
My freezing heart forgets to boat. And drifting mows my tomb prepare.
"Open your hospitable, door. . ,   And shield me from the bUlng blast; Coldj'cold It blows across the moor, The weary moor that I have passed."
With hasty steps the farmer ran,
And'close beside tbe flre they place The poor half-lrozen beggar man, .-With shaking limbs and pale-blue lace.
Thellttle children flocking came,-    . :   And chafed his frozen hands In theirs; Aud busily the good old dame A comfortable mess prepares.
Their kindness cheered his drooping soul, And slowly down his wrinkled oheek
The big round tear was seen to roll. And told the thanks ho cpuld not speak.-
The children then began .to algh.
And all their merry chat was o'er ; And yet they felt, they knew not why,
Jlore glad than they had done before.
A MAN'S TEMPXATION:
Johli Osgood left down the bars, for the tired oxen with which he had been plowing all day to go through them and .seek on the cool hillsides their night's pasturage. They turned their heads and looked at him with their great mournful eyes, as if expecting a word, for they were nsed to ills voice, the slow,
Satient creatures, and lilced it, as such umb brutes always do the voice of a kiiid master. But to-night he had no voice for them. He put up the bars again when they had come through, and leaned heavily against them.
A May sunset was flushing earth and sky. The new springing grass looked fresh and green. A light, feathery leaf¬ age was on all the trees, and a few of the pear and cherry trees, had put out white blossoms.   '¦'''     -      •
The western slcy was piled high with crimson clouds, ^vith, close to the horizon, a bar of gold. A reflected brightness flushed the east with a soft, roseate hue whieh spread up to the' zenith. AU was still as the uew birth of a new world. A sense of won¬ derful beauty tUri.Med through John Osgood's uneducated peaeeptions. He had no words for such asoene, no clear¬ ly defined thoughts: about it even, but it moistened his eyes, and quickened his pulses, and seemed to flood his life with a rush of dreams and longings.
How beautiful the world was! There were some men, he had heard, who painted such scenes as tbis—others wlio ¦wrote poetry about them—others who set them to music, like the songs of birds, orthe wash of waves. What was his part of all this ? Plowing to-day- planting to-morrow! Was that all life held for him ? There must be some oth¬ er use, some other meaning, if he could only grasp it. If he had no part or iot in all this beauty, why did it move him so.
Just then he heard the sound of hor¬ ses' feet, and looked in the direction whence it came.
Angeline Wilmartli was sweeping down the hill, with a gay gallant be¬ side her. How like a partofthe sunset beauty she looked, with its rose npon her cheek, its radiance in lier eyes and hair, her long blue habit falling low, and swinging to the motion of her cream colored horae, her white feather streaming back on the wind, her little bands with the dainty gauntlets on them—so much youth, aud grace and beauty. And the "city chap," as John Osgood called him, by her side, did not mar the picture. A handsome cavalier- ish looking man, there wae no denying that he showed well beside Angle, but ¦what was he here so much for ? They sweptby. Angle's low, silvery laugh tinkling a response to something her companion was saying; aud a little cloud of dust which the horses' hoofs beat up behind them filled John's eyes, and,choked his throat, and added bit¬ terness to his mood.
He glanced down to his hard, horny hands, his coarse, toiled,stained clothes. How well he would look at Angeline WUmarth's side ! And yet he had loved h er iu a vague sort of way, whose mean- . ing he-had just begun to find out, ever since he could remember. Life would ¦ nothave much savor, he thought, with¬ out Jier.. And yet, shewould be no flt farmer's wife ami that wasjustwhathe was—a farmer. Then the question came again which had haunted him before— . could he be uothiug else? Did He doom him? did Godaskhim always to • goiu and out of these old ways—plow and plaut, aud, make hay, and reap grain, all summer, aud go back and forth between the homestead and the wood lot, all winter? Some one could be found to do as well for them, and he —he believed he had enough in him to go away and make a career which An¬ geline would not scorn to share.
¦ The crimsou had died out ofthe west, the close hue out of the east. A low Wind had arisen, and Mew mournfully and slowly across the fields. John Os¬ good's iriood changed with theface of thenight. Th'eexultationforsookhim, andsomething hard,stern, sullen, alien, itseemed to his generon?, hearty nature, entered in and took possession of him. He wont home slowly, with heavy foot¬ steps.
"Tired, Johnny?" his niother said, cheerily, as he came into the kitchen. Somehow the words vexed him. She had said them often enough before, but they had never struck him just in this way till now. Johnny! It she would only rem'ember thathe was twenty-two years old. " Yes, I'm tired," he answered, dog-
" Well, draw right up to the table. I've got a nice cup of tea all ready for ye. That'll rest ye, and brighten ye up a little."
Johh Osgood threw down his hat im¬ patiently. , "Tea!" What notions of fife women had. He looked at his mother as he had never looked at her before.
"Mother," said he, with a bitterness he hated himself for years alterward, " I wonder if you ever had a trouble that a good cup of tea.wouldn't cure ? Things don't go auy deeper tban that with some folks."
His mother's eyes clouded, but she answered him very gently. She felt that to-night, for some reason, he was not responsible fot himself.
"I have had trouble that went deep enough, John. Five childreu that have played round my knees, sleep yonder, behind the old meeting-house, and to bear and nurse, and then lose—there's none knows what it is but just them that's' borne; it,, and God that made mother's hearts; 'Yes, I've had troubles that creature comforts wouldn't help much;.,aud yet, I dou't despise this Svorld's good things. You haven't any. graves wh^re you feel aJs if your heart were shut lu and smothered, and for beiu'tired audmopin' I do think there is virtue in ai good cup of tea." .i . Her patience and gentleness touched him. Hedrewup. hls.cbairtothe.ta- ble, where hia father was Bitting, and . answered her in a soft tone. ¦
"I s'pose you're right, mother, but I'm not just myself to-night.?'
Then he ate his supper In silence, and after it was over, sat for a few moments thinking silently.' At last he took courage and ' dpenid 'the subject of which his mind was fall. • • ¦" Father, James McCormick is' want¬ ing a-place. Dou't you think, with yoa to oversee him,he could do the ¦work on the farm this summer? ¦ '¦-Mrs'.'Osgood -did not speak, but' the oup;8lie was wiping fell to the floor with
:do fortwentydoUaiB a: month, and I 'wauttosee.what I am worth some- 'where else." ;
'Then there ¦was atiother long allBnee.' Themotherfinished washing up her dlshee and came and 'sat do wn'.between her son and her husband: her fece yery white and her hands shaking a little., ¦After °a while the old iiian reached out tti^d took one of the trembling hands In his own.
," We musn't blame John, mother," he. said trying tO: speak cheerfully. "Whathe feels Isn't unnatural.' Otber yonng:men say the same.' 'Veryifewiof tbem are contented now-a-day8.toillS);e their, fathers'lives oyer again. Only It's come sudden. Don't think we Tjlame yoa, boy. It's all fair and right—only- BUdden.
Johu got up and went up stairs. His mother's pale silence, his father's at-' temptatcheerfulness, seemed morethan he could possibly bear. He wfent away, to his own room and sat down by: the window. Over across the fields ailight burned steadily. He&new itwas the lamp iu ;Angeline WUmarth's parlor. ¦Was she worth all this that he was making these two old people sufibr? Was he sure that she would love him aa they did ? AVaa he sure that she would lovehim'atall? And iii this untried life, this great world where so many failed, how did he know that he should succeed ? 'What -was hegolng to do? How vague all his purposes were—juat adream, bom of a soft spring night, and Angle Wilmarth's fair face. Aud for it he was going to overturn tho whole fabric of hia life.
No, he would not be so mean. This summer, at least, should go on aa before. He would take time to consider. By autumn he should know better what he'i could do, and whether he could, bear to leave that old father and mother—flve of whose treasures the churchyard held, and whose all he was-rqnite alone. He begau to think that this very fact that he was their all, laid on him an obliga¬ tion not to be evaded—that no success purchased at such selflsh expenditure would be worth having. At any rate he would ivait. And eo sleep came to him, aud the morning brought him strength aud calmuess, and seemed to give him back hlsold self again.
"Will you see James McCormick to¬ day?" his father asked.at breakfast, with an auxiety he strove to conceal. Johu amiled cheerfully.
"Not to-day, father; uot at present. My plan was sudden, as j'ou said—too sudaeu to be wise. I have given it up, for a time, at least. I will carry on tbe place a while longer.
The old man's face cleared, but he did not speak; only Jno. Osgood'smoth- er got up und silently kissed him. Nb young lips could have been more fond —could any have been more dear?
Two weeks after that, news came to him of Angeline Wilmarth's betrothal to her cousin—the city-bred young man whom he had seen riding beside her iu the May twilight. Thia was an unex¬ pected blow, something which, know¬ ing the man was her cousin, he had never feared. The news sank Into his heart with a dull, dumb pain. She never would have cared for him, theu— never had. It was well he had not gone away aud left those two who. did love him to mourn. Aftor all, perhaps this existence of plowing aud planting was all he was good for. Fate had pla¬ ced him rightly—guaged his capacities better than he could have done himself. So he aettled back iuto his old grooves with a grim resignation which was not yet content. Still he felt himaelf at odds with the life which did not ofier him ¦what he wanted.
When autumn came, and it was time for him, if at all, to make the change planned in the spring, he was surprised to find the inclination to make it was gone. Some healing miniatry,,call itof natureorofgrace, Godknows, hadbeen at work iu his aoul; and uncouaciously to himself, through the long summer days and tbe ahort summer nights, he had been learning the sweetness of duty pure and simple—duty for ita own aake. He had begun to ask himself, not what he had wished but what he ought to do; and he felt that in the very fact of hia being on earth, Gfod has called him to certain duties on which he would never agaiu feel tempted to turn hia back. Beconciled at laat to the appointment of Heaven, be was at peace also with hia • owu aoul; and a new light eame iuto his eyes, a new vigor and manliness into his life.
He could thinkof Angeline Wilmarth in thesedays wlthoutpaiu. There would always be in his heart for her the ten¬ derness a good mau feels for. a woman once beloved; but whether she was his or another's he could not reckon her loss or gain among the "all things he was contented to leave with heav¬ en."
He had heard in the summer that she' was to be married on Christmas, but he heard no more about It afterwards; Her preparations were goingon, hesupposed, but he seldom aaw her. He had never spoken with her more than a passiug good day, since h* engagement.
One alternoon in November, he brought home from the village post-, offlce a bundle of papers, his Boston daily among them. Sitting by the flre and turning them over, his eyes were caught by the heading In large letters:

Possibly most of your readei^ do nbt care to,hear much, about ithe Jebusites and all the other Ites of those ancient times. A single sweep arouud tlie horl-r zon will suflioe to aee where they lived.
The Jebuaites had Jehus, or Jerusa¬ lem, for their capital. North of thsm, fifteen miles, was Levy or Bethel, which ohe can see on a high, ridge of land, whioh was a chief city of the Perizites; still further north, with Shechem for a central oity, were the Hivites. ¦ South of us, on the high ridge of Hebron, were the Hittites. Turn to the south-, east, and you look down upon the wil- dernesa of hills aud low mountains whieh lie between ua and the Dead Sea, the land of the Amaritea. You look eaatward over the dark watera of the aea of death, aud behold tbe mouutaius of Moab—a mighty wall of rock—gray limestone, seamed, cleft, bleached and whitened, ravines runuing up from the awful chasm of tbe sea—a broad shelf of rock halfway up the wall, traceable as far as the eye can see, till lost iu the hazevthe line wbere the bottom fell In ih some mighty convulsion. You may gaze upon it by the hour and never be weary, so strange, wild, weird the sceiie. Be^ yond that wall was the land of Mpab on tbe east, and of Aiumou on the northeast. There are uo sharp peaks, uo wavy outline of hills along the hori¬ zon, but only the mighty wall, gray in the foreground, deepening to blue in the distance, rock, cleft aud chasui re¬ flected in the aea.

In strange contrast to this worship of God, a few yeara later we see this same king renowned as the wisest man that ever lived, building an altar upon this very mount, aud offering sacrifice to Moloch. Forty or fifty rods south of us was the probable site of that altar to the god of tbe Ammonites.

He took hia hat aud went out, with aome vague purpoae of oflering hia help, which the fall wind shattered aa it ble w acroaa his brow. Of course there was no'tlilnfe he could do—he could not even speak to her on suoh a subject. Her! gdef would be sacred—and he, had he nbt been used this many a month to the idea that he was nothing to her any more?

We may thinkof that:greatgenerali aud statesman going up: alone to : the, top of that-rounded Bummlt to look acrosa the Jordan,' beholding-'Tabor, Bethel'^ this Mountaiu bf Olivet, arid there dying alone.,
" HIb -was the grandest f aneral Ttiat ever pas&ed oh earth;
Though no man heard the trampling . ¦ - Or saw the train go forth.
No sexton dug his uepalchre, And no man saw It ere, . ,
But the Sons of God upturned the sod   ' And laid "the great man there."
;. THE HOUSE OFDAVID. •;;,;
Pass over about four hundred years, to the year 1046, B. C, These are the years of the Judges and of Saul. David, the shepherd" hoy of Bethlehem, haa come to the throne. We cah look- acroaa the Kedron to theBPUth-westand behold the flelds where'hewatclied his father's flocks.' Through all thfeeye'ars the Jebusites have held the attonghold of Jeruaalem, Mount Zion., We! aee David advancing from.Hebron thrpugh Bethlehem with an army three times as large as that which Gen. Grant com¬ manded at the battle.of tbe Wilderness —337,000 men. They gather ou all these hills. We hear the taunt of: the waxri6rs,on the battlements of' Jebils.' The blind, and the lame are; svrfficienti tP defend the city they say. . Biit;there are braye 'men ready fpr any| daring putaide. We see the attack—Joab soal- ingthewaU, first inside the citadel-r- the fastness of Zion—and made General for his valor.
Henceforth Jerusalem Was the capi¬ tal of the Kingdom.
Turning toward the aouthwest, we have in full vlewthe plalnpf Eephaimi crossed by the road leading to Bethle¬ hem.., It is net moire than two inile^, wide. Oh.the.east it rises by a gentle ascent; on the west there ia a valley leading down toward the Philistine plain. We see the hosts of Philistal coming up through that valley, swarm¬ ing ou the plain, to attack Jerusalem; David advancing tb ineet them^driv- ingthem baek,;;capturihg their camil,' their idols, ;ihaking a grand bonfire of gods; asepbndinvaaibn, David "feicih-' ing a compass," going down the yalley,- of the Kedrou southeast, perhapa -al¬ most'as far as Bethlehem, advancing over the hill toward theweat talcing them iu fiank and rear—hparihg^-a atrange sound In the tops of-the inul- berry trees—the going of the'Lbrd-i-tlite signal for the attack. We see, the Phil¬ istines fleeing in confusion—Da-pid fbj-:, lowing, giviug them rio oppprtunityto :reform their lines, ln.vadiug .theiriowii land,: capturing city aftericlty, down to I Gaza^winning a victory which gives
We aee Jereboam King—the nation divided, Eehpboam Kiug of the ten tribes, his capital at Samaria. Judah and Benjamin remain, with a territory buta Uttle larger than Rhode laland. We aee Shiahak of Egypt sweeping up from the south,.entering Jerusalem 958 B. C.,'pillaglnfe the temple and the palace of the Klng-^trbops swarming in the streets, carrying off' the golden ahielda, the golden veasels of the tem¬ ple, and all the treasure of the King.

¦VVe. pass bver. seventy-five yeara; Joslah is'upbn the thrbh'e.' It is the era bf the great Befpirniailbii., The'na- tlon has become'wholly cbirrupt. There arealtara to Baal-iiere lipbii'the MPuhi of Olives; to Maleoh in the ..Valley of Hlnnom; to the aun, moon and stara npon the roof of the temple; nud upou aU the hill topa altara to Idols, fires ev¬ er bdrning, priests chanting their hea¬ thenish rites.; the fire upon the altar of the Lord gbhe out, cold' ashes inthe grate, no song of praise awellih^ frbm the threshing floor of Auranah.
It is interesting toturuto the narra tive of the reign of Joslah, and|readit oh this spot-to think of him as listen¬ ing to the reading of the law iuthe temple, rending his eipthes as he sees hpw the nation has forgotten God;' all the elders of Judah arouhd him taking an oath to serve God, then bringing out | the idola to the Kedron, hurning them, stamping tbe coals to powder upon the graves of the people. We look doyn into thp valley- and'behold the ground covered-with gra-ves as It was then. We aee the klri§ cpining up the hillaide tewar'd us, enteiiiig the Idel temples, breaking tlie . iniages; ahpvelihg up bouea from the graves,'heaping; them on the altara, thua forever :deflling the temples of the idolatora. , We follow him down to the valley of Hlnnom, and behold him overturning Moloch, defiling his altar; we follow him to all the'idolatroua temples, turning out the priests, going thrpugh the country and making a clean sweep of the abomina¬ tions.
Time fails. We muat roll up. the panorama of those ancient yeara, paaa- ing over' Josiah's death at Megiddo on the plain of Esdrellon, the invasion of the land by the Babylouiana, the army of Nebuchadnezzar on these heights, capturing tlie city, the pruceaslon of prlaoners goiiig; up' over the Northern slope on their way to Babylon to hang their harps upon, the '.willbws bythe great river of the East, the temple pil¬ laged and destroyed—fifty yeara rolling away, Babylon overthrown, Cyrua on the throne of the East, the return ofthe captives, rebuilding the temple,and the walls of the city. How Interesting to sit here and take an outlook upon the surrounding nationa, to recall the days of Esther and;Mpdecai and Ahaauerus, and.trace thelmarcblnga of the armies ef Peraia past Jerusalem to Egypt, and westward to Greece, to Marathon and Thermopyto, and as the centuries roll away, notice the advance of Alexander eastward, conquering all before him, hia phalanxes gathered arouud Jerusa¬ lem, the legions of Eome In tnrn mak-. ing the earth tremble beneath their feet, camping on Olivet, taking posesaion of the laud, aettiug up Goveruora upon the throne of David.
As we lookout upon the hills of Judea through the clear air of the morning, ao with mental vision we behold from thia summit of Olivet the mighty past. But our hour hits passed, and we fold the map to reopen it another day—.Bos- ton xfournal.
