Come, come, my love, the rudJy roae
StiU blushes on tho tree, And yet the lilly buds unclose.
Their bosoms to the bee, This world of ours still is young
In Autumn's laughing beam. And sweet is now the silvery tongue
Of every rippling stream. Then, come, m}' lore, 'ere winter blows
"With desolating breath. And on tho lilly and thc rose.
Is placed the hand of death; Yet come there then—for even there
Thy witching smiles are sweet; For atill in thee the Iillies fair. And lovely roses meet.

WHESB IHBY BEST.
In a little valley hollowed
From the mountain's verdant crc..?(, Far above the ocean's level, Far above the world's gay revel, Just beneath the vaulted-heaven. Where ita first pure breath is given. There they rest.
In the spring ihe wild bec murmurs.
O'er tha sod above lhem pressed; And the humming-bird is darting, Pausing, humming, sipping, starting.
Sipping nectar from the clover
And the roses bending over
Where thoy rest.
There a little streamlet glideth,
Smiling on like something blest;
And Ihe fresh winds from tho mountain,
Joining with thot sweet-voiced founlain,
Singing a ceaseless song abovo them.
For all nature seemed to love lhem,    •
In their rest.
Now the little " Pieasaut Valley"
In apure white robe is dressed; And the winds, in solemn measures. Chant their dirge—and  wondrous treas¬ ures— Ermine robes and gems iu keepings Winter casts above the sleeping:
StiU they rest.
Theso are but the caskets, folded In the valley's sheltering breast:
But. by faith, we see tho shining,
Of the orowns of peace, entwining. Spirit brows all white and pearly,.
Of the loved who left us early—
Seeking rest.
THE VALUE or EHEaGY-
Mrs. Mervin was seated in her ne&t sittingroom, towards the close of the short winter day, busily sewing. Her work- basket, piled high with garments cut and ready for making, was on the table at her side. TV ho has not a pleasant remem¬ brance of mother's work basket, so rarely empty'{ Cn that •willow repository waa always to be found the Uttle roll of soft linen for cut fingers; the identical bul^ ton needed; or, jnst the pieco of ribbon for the boy's hat-band. There too was mother's ball of wax, bearing the impress of little teeth. Many are the old memo ries that are stirred by the sight of a work- basket, and with them all is associated the memory of the patience, gentleness, and love of the dear ono whoso hands were tireless in the labor of the family.
The little sitting-room wa.s in faultless order.    The book-case and cliaiis of ma¬ ple shone brightly in.the reflection of the cheerful ooal fire in   the grate.    There were no tongs in the corners, no fiugei- marks upon thc doors, to indicate the pres¬ ence of Uttle ones in the  family.    Mrs. Mervin was a/aslidious housekeeper, and perbaps thought order to be regarded be¬ fore oomfort.    At any rate her four good, healthy, bappy children were constantly being rebuked for the  overfiowing li/'c they manifested.    Thoy would come in &om the street with muddy boots; and play horse with the chaii-s; and scatter chestnnt shells with lavish fi eedom over the carpet; but the worst effect of it was that it fretted their mother keenly.   She was not aware how much and how easily worried she was by occurrences so slight and BO usual in a family.    She was, when married, somewhat past her youth.    Her brothers and sisters were  carly  married and  settled,  and   she  was loft at  tha homestead,  the  dutiful housekeeper  of her old parents, who were both sickly.— In their well-ordered home undisturbed quiet   and   tranquillity   reigned.     She learned to'love the calm, uneventful course ofher lifo, and when at the death of her parents she married Mr. Mervin, a pros- perx}us mechanic, and  a man of strong home affections, with a nature Uke the BUDshine  of summer,   overflowing with gladness, it was hardly to be wondered at that the sudden change from her former life was too startling to be agreeable.— Bnt, although she was at first shocked to find thac her husband did not walk with the cat-Uke tread of a slippered invaUd, nor speak with the faint voice of weak¬ ness, and that he had an inveterate habit ef slamming doors, when fcirly roused firom ths torpor of her former life-—his quick, elsstio tread, and cheerful, manly tonea, seemed a positive reUef.
Bat with the advent of her children, ])In,Herri]i loet her peaoe and serenity.
low itto be encroached upon by maternal inaking, and then the work-All firom her cares. Ih short, she was in danger of hands, and she looked np in her hns- falling into  Mrs.  Joe   Gargery's  way,   band's face  with   tearful eyes.     " Oh,
Walter," she said, fSIteritigly, "we have so much to be thaiikfiil for; and I have been so ungrateful. I never t^^h can wish to qu'ill this God-givep lifo, whioh will be as a rare talent in their world- battle."
The next morning, WilUe and his bro¬ thers were surprised and pleaaed to re¬ ceive permission to visit thelittle lame boy, and take him such firuit and hooks as they might select; and further^ that their mother would accompany them. So a basket waspartly filled with delicions grapes, that had been;-carefully, stowed away iu cotton. A howl of deUcate jelly was plaoed in the middle. A few rosy apples found room in the intervals, and little Louis, with his own hands, plaoed at one end a small cake that had beeh baked for himself A satchel of interest¬ ing books waa prepared, and they started on the walk.
The widow's cottage, thongh small and humble, had a grass'.plot, and was snr¬ rounded by trees: In snmmer it might be very pleasant. In the city a poor wid¬ ow's home is small, harrow, and unhealthy in its closeness. In the blessed countiy there is room for all.
The room where lay the little InvaUd was o model of neatness. Theioother was a sweet, intelligent person, with whom Mrs. Mervin was muoh oharmed. She was industriously binding shoes for tfae shop, and scarcely laid aside her work whon her caller entered. She was making haste to finish her work, that she might buy Jemmy some grapes aud jeUi/', luxuries which he covered so mueh. The children exchanged glances, and Freddy, quite forgetting himself, shouted gleeful¬ ly, " Didn't you know it ? Wo've got some!" and drawing the cover from the basket, he set it in her lap. She gave one glauce within, and then with her eyes filled with heavy tears, and with a look of gratitude to Mrs. Mervin, silently' passed If-, io Jimmy. ^ The look of perfect happiueaa that overspread the pale little face, seemed to Mrs-f.Mervin too great a reward.
During the pleasant conversation that followed, she ascertained that Mrs. 'Wells took in sewing; and it was very natural that Mrs. Mervin should conclude that she had too mnch sewing to dQ-alone; and when she took her leave, after a pleasant, sociable Call, it was-settled that the widow should, for ari ample recom-- pense, assist her, ,
A change gradually made itself mani¬ fest in Mrs. Mervin's household. There was more easy comfort, and less formality. The children romped as much as evbr, but their mother could not rebuke them when she thought that wheu they yvere meu, the resilesmess would be power.— When at times there was too great a con¬ fusion, a gentle word acted magically in quieting it; for the children found that there was a great deal of consideration exercised toward them, and thus, gradu¬ ally, they came to praotice the same good quality. As they grew older, the rest¬ less activity that had characterized thier childhood, merged into the safe, broad channels of energetic industry.
The little lame boy was:alwaysVa favor¬ ite with them. They constructed for him a little cart, and it was always a de¬ Ught to them to wheel hiui about. But be finally recovered the use of his i'oot, though he always walked lame. The noble boys always befriended hiq, and he looked up to them as true heroes, worthy of all honor. To whatever trades or pro¬ fessions they may, as men, devdte them¬ selves, it ia ccrtun that they will carry thereto no amall share of that most desir¬ able ofall capital, thp true elements of success—energy, activity and persevering industry.
tie feet and a chorus'of little voioes in the hall, and then the door opened and in came the troop, rosy, bright-eyed, each eager to tell mother the news first.
" Now, Fred, and Louis, and Georgie, you may take my Jackstones, if you'll let me tell mother all about it," said WiUie, tbe oldest, holding the white pebbles np, above the reach of the little brownhands. " All right; haud over," was the cheer¬ ful answer; and, seated upon the floor, they began dexterously tossing and catch¬ ing the stones.
" Now; mother," began Willie, eagerly, having paid for his right as spokesman, " We've just been down to see Jimmy West. He is a little lame boy our teach¬ er told us about. He cau't walk nor even rise from his bed. He is about as old as Freddy too, and he looks so pale. Can we take him some of our nice grapeSj aud some toys and books ? He Iiket to read." The little speaker paused, with tears in his bright eyes.
" I don't caro what you take to him; do as you please;" was the cold, impatient reply. " Here you are, boys, with your hats BtiU on, and you forgot to wipe your feet on the door mat. Why will you be so heedless?"
WilUe turned away with quivering lip, too muoh grieved to speak. A cold per" mission had been given, but sympathy had been denied him.    -
" Why, mother," spoke up bright lit¬ tle Fred, with a look of charming frank¬ ness, " It's so hard for a fellow to remem¬ ber. I meant to have thought, I'm sure." " Well, Fred," said the mother, smil¬ ing in spite of hersolf, " I sec that your father is coming. Be ready to take his coat and boots, and bring his gown and slippers."
The boys rushed joyously to the door. In came the father, caught Louis up on hh .shniilder; put hia hat on Fred's curly head, drawing it over his eyes; tossed a new magazine upon his wife's work-table; and finally found a seat upou the floor, in consequence ofthe manoeuvres of Master George, who attempted to place himself beaide Louia.
The uproar of merriment at such a downfall subsided as the mother said com- plainiugly—
" Children, you distract me with you? noise. Why did you not get your fath¬ er's gown and slippers as I told you ? Do it now, and then come in and be quiet" ." Yes, boys," said their father, " we must not be so rude. We wiU have our froUcs out of doors."
Quiet was soon restored, and Mrs. Mer-. viu withdrew to prepare tea. During the evening Willie was subdued and sad.— He did not join in his brother's games, but sat moodily in a oorner. Once or twioe his mother praised him for his quiet behaviour, but the kind words awoke no pleasure in the sober Uttle face. Finally the children's bedtime arrived, and the young irrepressibles were sufficiently calm to think of such a thing as sleep. WilUe sedately led the way, carrying the candle, and the parents were left in peaceful pes-, session.
" What healthy Uttle roguea they are," was the father's comment, aa he cut the leaves of a periodical preparatory to read¬ ing aloud.    (The model man !)
" i'es, indeed," aaid Mrs. Mervin, with motherly pride. " And how well Willie behaved to-iight. If they would always be so quiet I should be glad."
" I don't know; his sad Uttle faoe pain¬ ed mc.    What had clouded it ?
Jlrs. Mervin refiected. "I haven't thought of it sinoe; but he burst into the room to-night to tell me about a little lamo boy he had seen. He wished to take some thinga to him; and I gave him permission to do so, although I presume I didn't enter into his feelings as much as he expected. I waa more anxious to have him clean his boots at the time, than anything else." Mr. Mervin looked grave.
" A little lame boy, you say'{ Jimmy West, I presume."
" Yos ! that was the name," said Mra. Mervin, wonderingly.
" 2 too called there to-night, just after the boys left. James West, the father of this little boy, was an old friend of mine. He was a gentle, timid, sensitive-minded person, too shrinking and retiring to bat¬ tle with the world. If he had possessed wealth to foster hia deUcate fancies, and left him above work, he might have been happy. 'But poverty was his inheritance. His health would not permit of any very active labor, and the rebaffs he met with in his attempts at authorship (he was quite a fine poet in my -opinion,) were so many shocka upon his mind and physical health. He married a poor but moat ex¬ cellent girl, whose energetic labors sup¬ ported them, though scantily. But James died atthe early age of twenty- eight. This I learned from his widow. She has only lately moved to this place. I heard of their being here, and thought I would call on my way home."
"How was the littleijoy's lameness pro¬ duced ?" asked Mral Mervin, with much intereat.
"He waa walking in a field, and came to ditch about four feet wide. What would any one of our boya have done in the same case ?"

"If it were only a scolding," said Tomi, ^'I could bear it; but perhapa he wiU whip me,,and I aasnre you, his hand strikes very hard." _    .
Thediscnaaion laated some time. Nisa agreed that papa would be very angry, but consoled herself with the thought that they did not often vex him; but Tomi thought deeidedly thit he had bet¬ ter not go home again, but seek his for¬ tune elsewhere. The'only objection to this was the grief it would cauae hia motheir.'^ At last Nisa announced with delight that she had a most excellent idea, whieh was that he shohld take her jug and pass off the broken one as hers. Papa would seold her, W-hd sute; but that was tolerable. He wonld never un¬ dertake to beat her.
But to thia Tomi would by no means agree. 'What ? Be such a ooward as to shrink firom pnnishment, and then shelter himself behind his Uttle sister ?

Bnt¬ no, Tomi would not listen to it at all.— " So come," said he, " I'll face the dan¬ ger at once."     .,
Just at this moment they heard them¬ selves called, and saw over the wall the blaok eyes and pretty brown face of Mad¬ am Fremont, the wife of the richest farmer in the distriot. She had over, heard every word, and now oame to their reUef, declaring that Niaa'a generosity and Tomi'a manUness eqnaUy deserved her favor.

Tomi'a accident will then be remedied without a falaehood, aud Ni- Sa'a kind heart saved the pain of aeeing him puniahed."
The children gladly aocepted the offer, as the lady had neither father nor moth¬ er to acold her, hut were very ouriona to know what 'she wanted of the broken jng.

A STOEY FOE THE IITTLE FOIKS,
The Fountain of St. Glaire-
In the Uttle village of Beauce, in France, lived the family of Jerome Eati- val, a soldier of the Imperial Guard, who had beeu obliged by loss of health to re¬ tire from aotive service. His wife, for¬ merly tbe waiting-maid of a lady of high rank, waa a most worthy, indastrious wo- man; and from her their little Niaa, then nine yeara old, had inherited her bright face aud gentle, refined mannera; while Tomi, their aon, a boy of ten, and an ao¬ tive, handsome, dashing looking fellow, was tbe very counterpart of his father in a certain straightforward, honest truth¬ fulness that won the respeet of every¬ body.
Jerome himself, with his six feet of height, his erect bearing, determined tread, and immense moustache, made every one think he must be a perfect terror to his wife and cluldren, and yet a more devoted hnsband or affectionate father oonld not be found; that is, if his family did nothing contrary to his ideas of right—for he had lived so long in field and camp that he thonght it the first duty to obey orders. Thns it happened that the Uttle Eativals were brought np with the strictness of yoong oonacripts, and would aa aoon have thought of flying aa of diaobeying.
Now, beaatifal and fertUe aa waa the neighborhood of Beanoe, nnfortanately there was.a.great Jaok of water. There waa plenty of it, snoh as it was, but none fit for dtinkihg, 'and so the snppUes for all^fimiUes, high and low, had to be
cept mamma.
Months passed on and there came abit- terly cold and hard winter. Eatival, whoae littie pension had been jnst r.educed, hard¬ ly knew whieh way to turn for bread; and old as he was—over sixty—undertook the taak of a " fagoteur" or wood peddler. Sometimea he got a job from the farmers aud did a little better, but not mnch. At last one day he told his wife that they must give np, for, work as he would, he oould nbt earn enongh, to live on. " No, indeed!" saidMadame Estival, "wo don't give up yet, for I have still the rich gold cUaih my dear lady gave me; wecan tnrn that to bread a Uttie while."
" Sure enough I" exclaimed Jerome, fairly dancing with joy at the thonght.— "How oame I to forget? There'a that eandal-wpod pipe the Emir gave me &om his own lipa ia Egypt, when I saved his head firombeinglaidopenbyasabre-strolbe Why, the mouth-piece oh it wonld ran- Bome a prince'"
" And I," chimed in Niaa. " There are my ear-ringa that you gave me, mam¬ ma; they're pure gold 1" "Aye," cried Tomi, "and my gold stiida !" So it was determined not to die of starvation jnst yet.
But the diacuaaion was interrupted by a- great, olamsy farm-lad, who came in staggering nnder the weight of a great basket of grun, which he put down, and handed Estival a note whioh tan thus : "The people of Tourry oannot suffer hnnger to enter the home of a brave man who haa ahed-his blood to defend t}iem, and therefore beg him to accept' this grain, which will be renewed every ¦Saturday."
"Yes; I aooept it, and frithont blnah I" . said the oldman, and he gave the lad a cnp of sonr vrine, and detennin¬ ed' to go'trhe next'day and tlwiik.Uie magirtMtes in penon: So he did,- 'and fiAind ibid tbe fowh knew nothhig abbnt, tt; thflMfon, when tbenttTSatntday the.: lad game again, he pnitiTely nfyiti^io

The old man was ordering the: ffRa toihe takmi beok, whpn tluhUitle oitps;. aided, fay theirnother; begged aohard for -t&e dainties-that he was foroed toyield^aa tothem; hht'declared he 'imiA hot tonch &e~^raih imless the lad told him. trhohad aentit.   _'^ Jost toll me this, old man!" oried the .boy,, forgetting his politeness in his angel; f. when yon were, in aerrice, if theyhad told yon tb break order8,'woald you hove done it ?"
• "I'd like to aee the man that tihnksl would,"'^repUed the old soldier, fieibely. "WeU, then," replied the boy," why do yon think I am going to ? E won't, I oan tell yon, once for all—but they did say ITihight tell the youag 'uns that the baaket grew by the Fountain of St.Claire."' "It is Madame i^remont I It is Madame Fremont!" exclaimed, -both children in the same breatKf"ar«M^'Tomi, turning to his sister, and imitating Madame Fre- monf a voioe, repeated her words: " Be as discreet as I shall be, my son, and you win haveno reason to repent it."
" Yes, that's jost the iiyay ahe said it!" oried littie Nisa, dapping her hands; and then taming to her .perpLexed father, she told him; for the first time, of .her broth¬ er'a ihisfbrthhe and' &e' propositibn that she had made to sfkve Um'from'punish¬ ment. " And yoh.didn't aooept it, boy ?" said the old man, sternly. "Of oonrse not, sir!" replied the boy proudly. "I'm glad to hear it!" exolaimed the fatheif, drawing his breath as if reUeved. "Any¬ thing bnt a Ue; and tb aot One is as bad to speak it! Bat I mi|;ht know you couldn't have been mean enough for that J

" WeU, weU!" aaid he, aa'lf'ishamed bf the feeUng he had shown, and trying td shskeit off. " Soit'a the good Madame Fremont that has been feading us all this time!"
" Yes, sir," repUed the grinning mes¬ senger. " She's kept the pieces ever since, and had 'em oovered oyer with baaket-work; and that's what I've been bringing the things in. Now, I think she'U end my fiUing it with her best gooseberry wine,'for you aee it's all made tight and unleaky-like; feel if it ain't!"
So it waa; and afterthe broken jug was examined, it was decided that the whole family should go the next day to Madame Fremont's farm and thank her for her generous and timely t<Jpi-«B«t »ow,". added the old man, " I hope she'U stop."
"No she won't, sir," answered the lad. " She ain't worked off all her notion yet, and wien my Madame gets i-n idea in her head, she never resta tiU she has worked it all off.    She's mighty set, she is !"
"Well, I'm asset asshe is;" repUed lerome coolly; and the next morning, aU in their best olothea, the wholo party waited upon Madame Fremont, to thank her for aU her kindnesa. The old soldier —in his uniform, of course—made her a formal speech, full of praises and grati¬ tude, but ending by a positive assurance that he meant to receive no more favors.
"I don't mean to ask you to, and never did," BMd the littie woman aauoily, eying the old man from head to foot. "I sent my favors to these Uttie darlings of mine, in return for their having affored me, at the Fountain of St. Claire, some of the most deUghtful moments I ever enjoyed in my Ufe. In spite ofyonr big mous¬ taches, Monsieur, and your great stern eyes, I niean to love all my days a boy who, Uke that one, would rather take a thrashing, even from you, than tell a lie, or take advantage of his sister's generosi¬ ty, and a girl who, Uke my friend Nisa, proposes to take a beating herself to save her brother from one, I tellyou what. Monsieur, I made a grand bargain when I changed my new jug for that broken one; and I promised then, with the help of God, to nae it for good; and now there ian't a man in the world, not even an old officer of the Imperial Guard, that can make me break up my promiae."
Eatival, diaconcerted by the atrange kiudneaa of the merry little woman, fol¬ lowed, at her oommand, iuto a pleaaant little room, where, on a nicely poliahed table, waa spread out an abundant feaat. Seated around it, they ate, drank, and were-merry; andwhen they were satia¬ fied.    Madame Fremont thua addressed
the old soldier:
" You-see. Monsieur, I have not the happinesa of being a mother; my hus¬ band waakiUed very soon after we were married; bnt I mean to take your child¬ ren for mine, whether you will or not, so yon may as weU submit at once and with a good'graoe; I know, however, that Madame Eatival wiU notlike to part with them, ao I shall keep her too; she can fuss about the honse, keep an eye on the milk-pans, and so on; and no doubt wiU end by being, a very useful body. But then it wonld be almoat cruel to send you back to loneliness and' solitude; so you oan manage farm and inoney affairs for me, and save me heaps of trouble. As to my two children here—^Tbnii, yon must take careof my books; and Nisa, yoh are to feed the pigeona and ponltry.-— There, now, ifs all settled, so not anoth¬ er word firom any of you."
And BO it was all settled, and the kind hearted, generous troman took under her¬ self the whole gratefnl family, who atrove by every meana in their power to repay herhenevolehce. When the old soldier died, she lidd him in his grave and con- abled his bereaved partaer, who aoon fol¬ lowed him; and never did the orphans find tlie leaat reaaon to think her other than ahe olumed to be—their second, mother. . -
