THE CEISTXAS REE
On Christmas night, ai orplhn child,
Walked trembling through the snow,.
With sighs he marked the hurrying guests
Pass gaily to and fro.
- With sighs he marked tk many lights,
Outshining far and nigh;
The night was dark and over all
There arched a starless sky.
le heard the sound of dancing feet
Me heard the music's strain:
Ile saw the shadows flitting by
On many a window-pane;
And presently the tapers beamed,
From many a Christmas Tree
"I wish," the child in anguish cried,
A bough was dressed for me!"
So passed he up and down the street
Till guests began to part;
Poor boy! Each kindly word they spoke
Breathed sorrow to his heart.
Eaeh echo of their festal mirth
Called forth his tears like rain
"I'll go," he said, "to yonder wood,
And pray to God again !"
Ile laid him down upon the snow
The snow so soft and white
And scarcely were his eyelids closed
When visions of delight,
L'ike Sundawn beaued upon his soul
"Dear child," an angel cries,
" Come quick with me, the Christmas Tree
Is b!ooming in the skies "
AWAY WITE CARE.
Away, away with sighs and tears,
Away with care and sorrow;
The storm that wrecks our hearts to-day
May~bury grief to-morrow!
It is ::t meet that man should mourn,
Amid this world'of toiling;
For la, who looks in Nature's face
W:l always find her smiling.
Earbh yields to us her golden gemns;
There's nought around us tearful;
And rose and violet strew our path,
To make us-blest and, cheerful.
'Tis,true Old Winter has returned,
To show his different phases;
But Spring, we know, will come at last,
To strew the fields with daies.
And thus, when life is ended here,
A hope to us is given
A promise of a brighter land
A happy home in heaven.
Th= nenme-away with sighs and tears,
Away with care and sorrow;
The stormithat wrecks our hopes to-day
May bury grief to-morrow.
THE OLD IMAN'S STORY.
A THRILLING SKETCH.
I shall never forget the commencement of the
temperanee reformnation. I was a child at the
time, of' some ten years of age. Our home had
every comfort, ands my parents idolized their
child. WVine was often-on the table, and fathler
and mother frequently. gave it, to me in the bot
tom of the morning glass.
One Sunday at chureh-a startling announce
ment was made to our people. I knew nothing
of its purport, but there-was much whispering
among the men. The pastor said that upon the
next evening there would-~be a meeting, amnd an
address upon the evils of intemperance in the
use of alcoholie drinks. Hie expressed himself
ignorant of the cause of the meeting, and could
itot say whamt course it would be best to pursue
in the matter.
*The night came, and groups of people gatth
ered on the tacvern steps, acnd I heard the jest and
the laugh, and saw dIrunken mien come reeling
out of the bar-room. I urged my father to let
mue go, but he at first refused. Finmaly-, thinking
th* itLwould be an inncecnt gratifirmtion of' my
eurieosjty, he put on his hat and- v~ pased across
the green to the church. I remnenber well
how the people appeared as they camine in,
seeming to wonder what kind of an exhibition
was to come off.
In thme corner was the tavern keeper, and
round himt a number of frieneds. Thew pastor
me in and took a seat behind a pilaIr- in the
allery, as if doubtful of' thme propriety of being
nm church at all.
Two men finally came in and went to the al
tr and took their seats.
The men were unlike in appearance, one be
ng short, thick-set in his build; the other tall
nd well formed. rTe younger hacd the mnner
ud dress of a clergyman, a full rotund face, and
good natured look. as he leisurely looked
round over the audience.
The younger fintally arose and stated the ob.
eet of the meeting, and asmed itf there was a
lergyman present to open it witht prayer.
Otur pastor kept his seat, and thme speaker him
ilf made a short prayer, and then a shoirt ad
ress, at the conclusion callinig on any one pre
ent to make remarks.-Th~e pastor rose, under
he gallery, and attacked the positions of' the
peaker, using the arguments which I hamve often
eard since, and cone~luded by denouncing those
ngaged in the new movement, as meddle-some
*natics, wvho wanted to break the time-honored
sages of good society, and injnre the business
f' respectable men.-At the concltusion of his
emarks, the tavern-keeper and his friends got
P a cheer and the current of feeliamg was evi
enthy against the strangers and their new plan.
Whilst the pastor was speakimg, the stranger
ad fixed his damrk eye upon him, acnd leatued for
'ard as it' to catch the wvords.
As the pastor took his seat the old mamn arose,
is tal4 form towering in its symmetry and his
test swelling as he inhaled his breath, throngh
is thin, dilated nost tis-To me, at the tune,
tere was something awe-inspiring and grand in
to appearance of the old man as lhe stood with
s full eye upon the audience, his teeth shut
rd and a silence like that of death reigned
roughout the church.
IHe bent his gaze upon the tavern..keeper, and
at pcirliar eye lingered and kindled for a mo
ent.
Tihe sear grew red upon his forehead, and be
th htis hea'vy eyebrows his eyes glittered and
wed like a serpent's. 'rho tavern-keeper
ailed beforc- thait searching glance, and I felt
relief when the old man withdrew his gaze.
r a moment he seemed lost in thought, and
en in a low and trenmlous tonme commenced.
tere was a depth in that voice, a thrilling pa.
s and sweetness which riveted every heart
the htouse before the first period had been
uided. My father's attention htad become
ed on the eye of thme speaker with an interest
ich I ha~d never before seen him- exhibit. I
but briefly remember the substancee of what
old man said, though thte scene is as vivid
dre me as' any that I ever witnecssed.
3Ny friends! I an' a stranger in your village,
'I trust 1 may call yotr friends. A new star
arisen, and ihere is hope int the dark nightt
elihas-spvead a pull of gloom over our coult
1* With a thriilitng depth of v'oice thte speake
~locked his hands together, anid contintued,
,God! thou who lookest with compassion
ni the most erring of earth's ehtildren. I thtank
ethat a brazen serpent has been lifted, u eon
ih the drunkafd can look and be hea 'd;
eacon has burst out upon the' darkness t
runds him, which shamll guide back to honor
heaven, the bruised and weary wanderer."
t is strange what power there is in some
es, The speaker's voice was lowv and mecas
,bt a tear trembled irt every tone, and be
I knew why, a tear dropt upont my hand,
..e., by oth..rs like rain repn. The old mnn
brushed one or two-from.his own eyes and con
tinued:
"Men and christian! You have just heard
that-Lam a vagPant and fanatic. I am not. As
my God-knows my own sad heart I am here to
do good,
"I am an old man, standing at the end of
ife's journey. There is a deep sorrow in my
heart, and te~ars in my eyes. I journeyed over a
dark and beaconless ocean, and all fife's hopes
have been wrecked. I am without friends, home
or kindred on earth, and look with longing to the
rest of the night of death. Without friends,
kind:ed or home! It was not once so !"
No one could withstand the touching pathos
of the old man. I noticed a tear trembling on
the lid of my father's eye and I no more felt
ashamed of my own.
" No, my friends, it was not so once.-Away
over the dark waves, which have wrecked my
hopes, there is the blessed light of happiness and
home. I reach ngain.,convulsively for the shrines
of the bonsehold idols that once were mine, now
1o inore."
The old man seemed looking away through
fancy upon some bright vi-iion his lips apart and
his finger extended. I involuntarily turned in
the direction where it was pointed dreading to
see some shadow invoked by its magic move
ments.
"I once had a mother, who with her old heart
crushed with sorrow, went down into the grave.
I once had a wife, a fair, angel creature, as ever
smiled in an earthly home. Her eve as mild as
nummer sky and her heart as fiithful and true
as ever guarded and cheriliel a husband's love.
Her blue eyes grew dim as the floods of sorrow
washed :way their brightness, and the livinig
heart I wrung until every fibre was broken. I
once hid a noble, brave and boautifull b ,y, but
he was driven out front the ruins of his home,
and my old heart yearns to know if lie yet lives.
I once had a babe, a sweet, tender blossom, but
these hands de'troved it and it lives with one
who loveth children.
" Do not be startled my friends- am not a
murderer in the common acceptation of the term.
Yet there is light in my evening sky. A spirit
mother rejoices over the return of her prodig.1l
son. The wife smiles upon him who again turns
back to virtute and honor. The child-angel vis
its me at night-fall and I feel the hallowing
touch of a tiny palm upon my feverish cheek.
Mv brave boy, if he yet lives, would forgive the
sorrowing old man for the blow that inim(-d
him for life, and the treatment that drove him
into the world.-God forgive me for the ruin
that I have brought on me and mine.
"I vas once a fanatie, aid mnadly followed
the malign light which led me to ruin. I was i
fanatic, when I sacrificed wife, children, happi
ness, and home to the accursed demon of the
bowl. I once adored the gentle being whom I
injured so deeply.
" I was once :i drunkard. From respectabili:y
and affluence, I plunged into degradation anl
poverty. I dragged my family down with me.
For years I saw her check pale, and her step
grow weary. I left ter alone amid the wreck (t
lit r home and her home idols, and rioted at tile
tavern. She never complained, yet she and the
children were hungry for bread."
One New Year's night, I went late to the hut
where charity had given us roo.-She was v-i
ip and shivering over the coals. I dem:idad
food, but she burst into tears and said there wtas
none. I fiercely ordered her to get some. Sie
turned her eves s-idly upon ime, the tears falling
fast over herp:ile cheeks. But this moment the
child n the cradle awoke and sent tip a famished
wail, startling the despairing nother like a 8tr.
pent's sting.
" We have no food, James-have had none
for several days. I have had nothing for the
babe. My once kind hiusb.mid, must we
starve.
"'1That sad pleading face and those streaming
eyes, and the feeble wvail oif the chiild, mnaddened
me, and I-yes, I struck her a fierce blow in thet
face, and she fell forward upon the hearth. Thi
futries of hell boiled in my' bosomi, and with
greater intenisity, ais I felt I had commnittedr a
wrong. I had niever struck Mairy before. but now
sonmc terrible impulse bore tue on, and I stooped
down as well as I could in my dlrunken stare,
and clenched both hands in tier hair.
"God of mnerc.y, James!" excelaimed my wife,
as she looked up in my fiendish countenance.
"'yo-u wiill not kill us--you will not harm Wil
lie ;"and she spranig to the cradle and grasped
him in her embrace. I cautght her again by the
hair and dragged her to the door, and as I lifted
the latch the wind burst in with a cloud oif snow.
-.With the yell of a tiend, I dragged her- on, anid
hurled her (ot iinto the darkness amid storm.
With a wild ha ! ha ! I closed the dhoor and
turned the button, her pleading moans mingled
withi the wvail of the blaist, andl the shiarp cry of
the babe. But my wvork was not compha':e.
"I turned to the little bed where lay my elder
son. and snatched him fronm his sl umbers, I ope
ed the door andt thrust him out in agony of fear,
he called me by a name I wias no longer fit to
bear, and locked his fingers into niy side pocket.
I could not wirenech the frencied grasp away, and
with the coolness of the devil, as I wtas, shut the
door upon the arm, and with my kinife, severed
it ait the w rist."
The speaker eansed a moment, and buried his
face in his hainds, as if toa shunt (alt sonic fearful
dreamn, and his decep chest heaved like a starmi
at sea. My father hiad arisein fronm hi-a seat, the
large draops standinag upoan his forehead. Chilhs
rept back to my young hear:, and I wishedl I
was at home. T1hie old mam looked tup, anid I
never have since beheld such mortal :agony pie
tured on a humnan face as there was on his.
It was morning when I awoke, and the storm
lhad ceased, but the coldf was intense. I first se
cured a drink of water, and thten looked in the
acctomed place for Mariy.-As I missed her,
for the first time a shiadaowy sense of some hair
ritihe niightmare began to d:ayn upon my wander
ing mind.--I thought I lhad a terrible dre:umn, but
inoluntarily opened the out-side door with a
shudderinag dread. As thme door apened, the
snow burst in, followed by the fall of somethinag
across the thtreshahold, scatte-ring the snow, anid
striking the floor with a sharp, bad sotund.
"My blaood shot like red-lint arrows tharo' my
veins, and I rubbed may eyes to shut ont the
sight. It was-it-Oh !G(od how horribale! it
was my own injured MIary and her babe frozen
to ice! The ever trtue mothier head bowed herself
over the child to shield it, wrapped all her cloth
ing around it, heaving her owvn pierson naked to
todhe storm. She had placed her h::ir over the
face of the chiid, and thme sleet had fr-ozen it toi the
white check. The frost wais white on its half
opened eyes, and upon its tiny fingers. I knmew
not what became (if my brave boy."
Araini the old man bowed his head anid wvept.
My f'ather sobbed like a child. In tanies of low
and heart-broken pathos, the old matn concluded:
" I was arrested, and for long months raved ini
delirium. I woke, was senttenaced to prison for
ten years, btut no tortures could have been like
those [ endured wvithait my ownt baosom. Oh, God,
no!I I am not a fanatic. I wish to injure no
one. But while I live let tme strive to wvarmn others
not to enter the path Iwthicht ha~s been so dark
and fearful a one to me. 1 wouild see my wife
and children bevonid this vale of tears.
The old mani sat down, baut a spell as deep
and strong as that wrought by a wizard's breath
rested uipan the audience. IIearts could have
been heard in their beating, and tears to fall.
The old mant then asked the peoaple to sign a
pledge. My father leaped from his seat, and
snached at it eagerly. I had followved him, and
s he hesitaited a momenat wvith the peno in the
ik, a teat fell from the old man's eves otn the
paper.
" Sign it, sign it, young man. Angels would
sign it. I would write my nme there ten thou
sand times in blood. if it would bring back my
oved and lost ones."
My father wrote "Mortimer Hludson." The
old iman looked, wiped hris tearful eyesand look
d again, his eounrtenance alternattely flushed
with red and deathlike pateness.
"It in-.to, it catnnot be-yet howv strange,"
murttered the old man. " Pardon nme, sir, but that
was the name of mty brave boy."
They looked. for a mnomenit into each other's
eyes boath reek d . rrd gasp -d
aMy own ina ured boy!"
" My father!"
They fell tt on eaich o'her's nreks, until it
seemedl that th- ir so Is vt m!d grow and mingle
Into one. The c w a wve -png in t t churcht,
and I tt:rne I bt wild tred tujotn the streaming
"Let me thank God for this great blessing,
which has gladdened my guilt-burdened soul,"
exclaimed the old man; and he kneeled down,
pouring out his heart in one of the most melting
prayers I ever heard. The spell was then bro
ken, and all engerly signed the pledge, slowly
going to their homes, as if loth to leave the
spot.
The old man is dead ; but the lesson he taught
his grandchild on the knee, as his evening .sun
went down without a cloud, will :ever be for
gotten. His fanaticism has lost none of its fire
in moy manhood's heart.

are depiendenit the, henlth, the well-being, andi 'ie
happine.as of a conltding and atfectionate wire, with
perhaps a faily or chuidren.
