SOMETIME. ' i DT MBS. MARY RILKY SMITH. C Sometime, when nil life's lessons have.keen 1 learned, u And suns and stars foreverinorc have set, I The things which our weak judgments here have spurned, 1 And things over wkieh we grieved with lashes wet, .. 8 Will flash before Us, out of life's dark night, t As stars shine most in deeper tints of blue, t And we shall see how all God's plans were right. And how what seemed reproof was love most t true. j And wo shall see how, while we frown and sigh, " God's plan goes on us heat for you and ire ; How, when we called, lie hccdeth not our cry ^ Because His wisdom to the end could bco. t And e'en as prudent parents disallow Too much of sweet to craving babyhood, | * So God, perhaps, is keeping from us now Lifo's sweetest things, because it seemeth good. I And if, sometimes, commingled with life's wine, j We lind the wormwood, and rebel and shrink, | Be sure a wiser hand than yours or mine l'ours out this portion for your lips to drink. And if Borne frieud we love is lying low Where human kisses cannot reach his face, i Oh, do not blame the heavenly Father so, i ltut wear your sorrow with obedient grace! Aud you shall shortly know that lengthened ' breath Is not the sweetest gift God sends his friend, I And that, sometimes, the sable pall of death I Conceals the fairest boon his love can send. If we would push ajar the gates of life, And stand within, and all God's workings sec, We could interpret all this doubt and strife, And for each mystery could fiud a key. I Hut not to-day. Then be content, poor heart ! God's plans, like lilies, pure and white unfold, We must not tear the close-shut leaves apart; j iinv: win rcvi-iu inu ciuyxes ui pom. Ami if, through patient toil, we reacli tiio land Where tired feet with sandals loose, may rest, 1 When we shall clearly know and understand, 1 think that we would say, "God knew the best I" THE DOOLITTLE DELEGATION, TO A "WOMAN'S BIGHTS CONVENTION." BY MISS L. VIRGINIA SMITH. "The Woman's Rights Convention, Is not laid low in dust? A better time is coming? Jiecautre?it will and must !" A Wuman of the 19th Century. Near the close of a delightful Indiansummer day, late in the autumu of 184!), ice did, Asmodcus-liko, peep into the inte- I rior of a little cottage which sleeps lik : a sunbeam on a grassy slope in the immediate < rieiuity of Ohio's capital. The softly-roll- i ing Sciota flows on with a no loss troubled current than does the stream of existence i which bears tho pretty mistress of the tiny i mansion that sleeps upon its hanks, and tho < last faint glances of departing day rested i not on a uioro perfect picture of beautiful ? repose than that which was exhibited in her I cosy little parlor. The true and gentle woman's heart ot Adelaide Clermont was hero 1 emphatically at home, everything around her s was delightfully redolent of the repose which filled her soul, and though the evidences of luxury and refinement were visible on every j?ide, they only contributed to render the i geucral impression more deliciously home- i like. The rosy sunlight poured through t.Hrt lin.avv primiinn r??ir#??Snc ? ?/! <nll ? j - UIIU IV1I 1 a rich plow over the bright-tiutod carpet I and velvct-cushioncd furniture. A clear ] fire sparkled in the shitting grate, in front I of which was drawn an elegant table with its dainty burden of bijouterie, a little work* t basket, and an antique vase with its snowy bosom lull of pale tea-roses. Beside the table, in a deep, luxurious rocking-chair, sat the lovely mistress, one arm resting on the marble top, and half buried in a profu sion of soft brown curls, supported her head, while on the other, lying across her hip, slumbered a beautiful infant. The feelings aud principles of that sweet young wife aud mother were disclosed to every discerning eye, not only by her expressive, soul-lit countenance, but by every graceful attitude and movement, and even by her J unobtrusive vet unexcentinnnhlrt fnilMto The rich, yet quiet color of that dress, 30 tastefully trimmed, so modestly made, i with "its frill of delicate laco, from which the white throat emerged like a lily from the bosom of a foam-wreathed wave; the I dainty, embroidered cuff fulling over the i snowy and jeweled hand, the tiny slippered I foot just peeping from beneath the graceful folds of the dress, all wore cloquout of the i character of the wearer. Sho is true, and < earnest, and beautiful of soul, and her i young spirit from its homo in the bosom of another, looks forth upon life with a trustful oyc, and a confiding hemrt. The tiny pendule upon the mantel piece struck the half hour to six?its inuaieal chime roused the lady from her reverie ? Hers must have been a dream of pleasant * fancies, for when sho raised her head, her deep-violet eyes glistened with a dewy tendcrnesi, a rich glow slcpt-amid tho dimples on her velvet cheek, which at this moment were deepened by a quiet smile of ineffable happiness, "lie will soon be here," was written with pleasuro upon every feature of her lovely face, and indeed in every nction, for rising with the slumbering babe still up- I on her arm, she closed tho heavy curtains, 1 drew a richly ornamented guitar from its 1 recess, and wheeled forward to the sido of i her own, a ponderous and velvet-lined easv- i chair. She had resumed her scat when a < step resounded along the hall, not a very >;entlc footfall it must be confessed, and in fi moment, without ceremony, thj door was thrown opon. The eye of the young wife i did not brighten at the sound, the rose-blush t on her delicate check neither faded nor deepened, for her heart did uot recognize i in it the music of her husband's light, clastic footstep. She was not deceived?and < with'a smile and a glance at her sleeping I infant, as if to apologize for not rising, she n welcomed the intruder. The lady, ("for such k l was, though from her very emphatic step I Jj inc might have otherwise decided) returned Ul he salututiou, as with all the haste which I icr magnitude would allow sho "made for"f s l largo chair on the opposito sido of th \ \ ire-place, into which she sank with many . 1 t wanting exclamation of satisfaction. A ' Well, I never?this is go ploasin'?fniTfl 0 awful?comfortable?1 mean so 'luazin' ^ ired?that High Street is euutf to?the c ncrcy knows if efer?" g 'I fear you have extended ycur promc- il ado too far, dear Mrs. Dewberry," said fl Vdolaido Cleruiont, as rising she rang a c imall silver-bell, shaped like a lotus-flower, a vhich lay upon the table; and a neat ser- o rant-girl appearing immediately, sho con- h inued, "assist Mrtf. Dewberry, Eliza." p The aforesaid being disencumbered of icr bonnet, mantilla and gloves, took from icr pocket an enormous snuff-box, and ap- a dying a portion of its sccutcd coutcuts to a 1 nasal organ somewhat smaller in its pro- li portions than the "towor of Carmcl," lay jack in her chair arranged to her entire d tatisfacticD iu a manner that,was truly cdi- ' Tying to behold. Sho seemed to havo been q formed by Nature upou a model having its v ideal iu the old saying, "It's just as broad t is it's long," for in personal extension, that ' is to say length, breadth and thickness-, she i very much resembled the rotund fruit which f lias the houor of hearing lior name. If t neither her altitude nor her pulchritude r were astonishing, her latitude most certain- 1 ly was, to which, by a remarkable coiuci- ' donee, her mauuer and her costume were i made to correspond. There was a broad t smile upon her couuteuauce, and a broad I frill upon her cap; there were broad stripes t on her dress of mouslin-de-iainc, and she i possessed a broad understand imj as a basis j to her peregrinations over this mundaue : sphere. Her address and appearance were l decidedly primitive, though she cviuced a s Rgrec of shrewdness and good sense com- I hincd with great kindness of heart, and in i the expression of her opinion thcro was a i blending of quaiut originality, child-like simplicity, aud homefolksincss (shade of i Noah Webster forgive us) which was ahso- < lutely irresistible. Mrs. Deborah Dewberry was a prominent cilizcncss of tho risiug < village of Doolittle (an cuibyro production ] of western Ohio) and a distant relative of I the father of Henry Clermont, Esq., who ' on that account felt himself privileged to i call-her "Aunty," and play upon her foibles i ?to caress and to quiz her alternately, as t his varying mood might happen to suggest, s She had "couic up," as she observed, from | Doolitlc to the city to purchase the wiutor i outfit for her family, aud had choscu to i make his house her home during her stay. 1 Adelaide had too much love for her i tiusband, and too much quiet dignity and ( jood sense to object to tho uusophisti- 1 lated style of Mrs. Dewberry, besides, she 1 >vas conscious that her rank in society was \ juitc too independent to be affected either i: yy fashionable or unfashionable friends.? t And thus the good old lady found in the ( Happy home of Harry Clermont, the samo s lunnv-heartcd woloniiu* wliinh wnnlil liovn .....v. ?beamed upon a queen. a Another, and a ringing footstep on the front <j [Trrrtico, and Aldclaidc rising hastily, glided f to the hall door just in time to reach it as i it was thrown back by a young and extreme- c ly handsome man, whose dark eyes seemed e to flush, and throw over her beautiful little \ figure a shower of sunbeams, lie boat upon t her upturned brow a look of unutterable p tenderness and pride, and his lip touched ? its veined marble with a gentle pressure, 1 then stooping to caress a moment the bahc a upon her bosom, ho threw his arm around t her graceful shoulders and they returned to 1 the parlor fireside. I "(iood evening Aunty?bless tnc. you s look so refreshing!" exclaimed Clermont as a he threw his fine person with an indolent 1 grace into the large casy-chair by the side i of Adelaide, and tossed back the masses of si dark wavy hair from his brow. Then pass- 1 ing his hand over the right arm of his 1 chair, which th3 table concealed from Mrs r Dewberry, and taking up his young wife's 1 liiy fingers, he continued?"For once I'm j ?onous, aunty ! you do look as pleasant as t ?as if you too were waiting for a husband c ind ho pressed the little hand lie was hold- 1 ing closo within his own. . i "There's two ways of waitin' for a bus- 1 ban', child," repliod the old lady ; "one's i ifore you're married an' t'other's nrter, an' t both uint aliko pleasin', I reckon." s "You speak with a 'vim,' aunty that, al- i most tompts tno to believo you have tried both ' ways," said the young husband, while ho t jccmcd wholly ocoupicd in contemplating ] his beautiful wife and child. < "Well, I don't kcer nothin' to hurt if I i hcv," answered the lady good-huuioredly ; 1 "I reckon I'd a right to try both ways, 1 hadn't I ? ch I" , "Oh I most certainly a right, and a canso t also, doubtless?a lady has always a right ] to do as she please?if sho can?and she i always pleases to do right?except?" i "When she's wrong," laughed Adelaide, ( as the tea-bell rung, and she rose, gave her f babv to its nurse, and led the way to the v< dining-room. t "Speakin' of wimnicn's rights," remarked i Mrs. Dewberry, as Clermont handed her to 1 the tea-table, "puts mo in mind of the Don- i littlo Delegation to that astonishin' female 1 woman's Convention,' way down the river i II Massvehliseta All our no?lmi-li<vul ....... ? jp in nrinfl, an' sich rcarin', an' pitchiu', ] in' preachin', an' cavortin', you never did" t ?bore the good lady "broke down." 1 "No, I daro say wo never did," remarked 1 Harry with a entile, intonded to bo very t insinuating, "and, aunty, just an soon ns \ (upper is over you'll toll us all about it." I "Sakes alive, child ! I'ui too tired to talk, t in' you Jinow it." I "Positively I will tuko no denial," urged I Jlormont, "you must see tlyit I remain at 1 tome to-night on purpose to be entertained, r ind when Ada, my bird, has aung to us a Ocntle words and loving smiles,' and 'Ben i / m* % , .-x-., pit,' then, aunty, 'tis your turu to do thi grecabh?come, be accommodating." "Well, if I must, 1 must, 1 reckon,' ighed Mrs. Dowborry, secretly delightec rith the opporluuity of exercising her ora ovioal powers. . Suppea was over, tho young wife sang ?cr husband's "favorites,' aud for scvera nomcnts after the last cadence of her sWeet r^ar voice had faded iuto silence, he sa azilyg intently into her beautiful eyes a: f Wt to every thing but their entrancing isci,nation. Adelaide, with the quick per cptfon of a woman's heart, read his fceliugi t a vrlanco, and smiling in the consciousness f hi?r owu sweet, but silent power, she laic icr taper fingers on his arm, and whis "<You forget tho story, llarry !"
