EVENING STAR THE HOUSEHOLD dablhto ?T job* cbitculst wici, (? "w*!"! E*(Uzmd?+ wmmm.) Little Ella, fairest, dearest, Uato me ud unto mine? Earthlv cherub, corning nearest To my dreams of shape* divine! Her twrabsence frets and pains me, Her bright presence solace brings, Her spontaneous love restrains me From a hundred selft-h things. Little Ella moveth lightly, Like a graceful fawn at play, Like a brooklet running brightly, in the genial smile of May ; Like a breeae upon the meadows, AU besprent with early flower?, Like a bird 'mid syivan shadows, In the golden summer hours. You should see her when with nature She goes forth to think or play, Every limb and every feature Drinking in the joy of day; ^topping oft 'mid floral splsndor, . Snatching colors and perfume*, She doth seem so fair and tender, Kin to the ambrosial blooms. Sweet thought sitteth like a garland On her placid brows and eyes? Eyes which seem to see a far land Through the Intervening skies; and she seems u> listen often To some voice above the sphere*, Whilst her earnest features soften Into calmness, "km to fears. Not all mirthful is her manner, ? Though no laugh so blithe as hers , Grave demeanor comes upon her When her mmo?t nature stirs. When a gentle ti,> n proves her, All the gladsome graces flee; But the word 4 forgiveness" moves Iter, And with new joy s*. ts her free. Should a shade of sickness near me, Then she takes a holier grace, Coines to strengthen and to cheer me, With her angel light of face. * i*p the stair I hear ner coming, Duly at the morning h ur, Sweetly singing, towftly humming, Like a bee about a flower. Good books wake ecstatic feelinss In her undeveloped mind? Holy thouguts, whone high revealings Teach her love for human kind; Music thrills her with a fervor, Like the -ongs of seraphim; May bright spirits teach and nerve her To partake the perfect hymn. God of Heaven ! in thy good seeing, Spare this darling child to me? Spare me this unsullied being. Till she brings me close toThee. TTn?een angels! bless her, mould her Into goodness, clothed in grace. That on high T may behold her Talking with ye, face to face. cirtion Aoaivst Frightening Chil dren.?a melancholy instance of the ?worse than foolish practice of frightening children, in whieh some people indulge, in spite of too frequent warnings of its awful consequences, has lately taken place in Devizes. A little boy named Godge, employed in one of the factories, was sent into a dark rcom? one evening last week, to fetch some yarn. Another boy had been previously sent into the same room, and had run out screaming that "something had jumped out" and taken the yarn from him. The boy Godge, after saying that he was afraid of nothing, went boldly into the room, some other boys remaining outside. In a few minutes,Godge was heard to scream and fall upon the floor. He was found to be in a violent fit, and was at once convey d home. He has had a succes sion of fits ever since, and there is con siderable doubt about his recovery. Th? cause of this misery was some brainless fool with a sheet over his head, and sta tioned, for the fun of the thing, in the re motest corner of the room. Russian Republicanism.?The Athe nwum says that a Russian press, print ing works in Russian, of a democratic order, is in full operation in London The first Russian grammar ever printe< was at Oxford, in 1696, by Ludolf. Hert zen, in 1^53, issued from the above pres; an address to the Russian noblemen ; h< has now publishing a work entitled 44 Prison and Banishment." The best defence of lying that w ever read is the remark of Charles Lamb related by Leigh Hunt, that " truth i not to be wasted on everybody." MOVEMENTS OF OCEAN STEAMERS Same. Leave for Dave.
