MI J8 OE3Ij31*ja-3S"Y, A^E??t?iTWorM ?t Home. Tn morning walks I often pass A cottage by a plat of grans, Where n<?rfumed flowers faye to bloom; A very ne .t anti cheery place. Whore 5s not found one shade of gloom - Though there, they aay, One hides away, A? if it surely were a tomb. And as tho sui), this August morn, Arose to tell a day waa horn, . 1 stopped a moment by tho "gate, To talk with bm- who never minds The wide world's love, or frowns or hate, but. sits before Her cottage door, And is as happy as tue great. Faid I to her, "The world is wide; Have you no Wish to ace outside To taite, its pleasures as yon roam?" She answered with Jt?r sweetest smile, "1 have a little world at home! Outside are jars And strife and wars, ? Tut hem they never, never conn*. ."Outside, the heads arc often ?tung T.y poisoned words from slander's tongue, And tiuy barks upon life's s<-a4 Are often wrecked amid the gloom: i'roni ills J i Ic- . these 1 now am free. I have a child, A husband mild These area little world t" me!" O happy hear!! what though in icorn Tiny suv that you we cc lowly born. And mav not in their i in eonn.-V If joy dwells not hi-neaih your r-.ef, it dwell- lb not. 'neath palace dome, of rich and gay, How few can say 'T have a little world at 'home!" A STItAiVGE STOR Y. JSentarkablo Adventurist of mi 0uterus'. Heiress-Her Fart mr; and Her iJ/t's fortnne. Many yours- ugo. a young German couple embarked from their native shores fco try their fortunes in the new world. Au emigrant iship landed them in due. time in New York. Their des? tination was tho Wost, And they cann to Chicago, where they determined b> sollie, and hoped to bo able to earn a livelihood, besides hiving something aside, for tho future They both ap? plied themselves diligently, and l>v diutof hurd ami drudg:* .- toil mul the strictest economy they manag*? d io lay up yearly a small amount, st? that iii time they ha? 1 together saved enough ? to make thom comparatively indepen? dent. The years succeeded one an? other, and in thc comise of linn , three children, two boys and a girl, wore given them to gladden their heart... ami lighten their labors. When tho gili, the youngesl child, was a year old, thc lather sickened and died, leaving his widow and chii dren enough to enable them t>> livo in ease, ami comfort. Timo passed on. .ami the babe grew up, a beautiful, in telligent girl. ' The eldest son had just reached man's estate, nod had gone forth to gain his livelihood, when a second time thc dread messenger crossed the threshold, and tho motlier, whose, tender care and good counsel fiad been lavished upon In r children, was taken from th> in, and tim two i youngest, not able as yet to tread life.Vj stony road unaided, were Icfl without the aid of lier advice and admonitions. The dying motlier committed thc two little ones to thc ear.; of a mao whom she had considered a rcoocl friend to her, as their guardian, with a solemn injuncti ?n, which he promised toohey, that he would care for them and bring" them up. Hardly had thc grave closed over the mother's form befor? thc poor orphans were made b> foci what sort of a protector had bi en chosen for them. The little child)*? n, who. while theil moth? r had lived, had never known a cross word or a Mow, wer.-, now daily and hourly nvule to feel the cruelty ?d' the man v ie? had promised to ..arr for them and rear . them in kindness. Thi boy was ca? ly Sent off to earn his living as an np- 1 prentice to a tobacconist, while the girl was not only obliged to perform the most menial drudgery, but even' subjected to abuse and punishment. At length, the fiendish cruelty of the I man took a designing form. He.: thought of the property in In rib d by the children, and longing to gra.p it HS hi? own, drove the girl, his ward, from his door into th? street, not car? ing whither she went or what became of her, provided she did not return lo 1 claim the property which was h< r own. j The little outcast, tims turned upon i the world, sought the advice of .. lady I who had known her parents in former | years, and whe obtamed for her a po- | sitien in a family a.s child's alt? udanfc. ! Tho child, unaccuaLomi d to duth ; ..?' ? this character, preved but ?: p ?or ? .- ' sistant, and f ho was oblig- d r..-.-k place after place. Thus matters went on, tbs young girl serving many mis- | tresses in whatever capacity she could make herself useful, herself neglected, often scolded, and rarely hearing a kind word addressed to ber t?o the voung orphan grew np, nntil a ?hort nine ago, and now, in her nit? ? nth yeat. she was abruptly mraharged ?rom th", situation she vrtts holding, an?I - nr.r.r? *>A street RW w-rd'v effects were few, and. gatlio.ri.tg them hastily together in a b?ndle, she went forth.* Disconsolate, sorrowing-al? most crazed by tho ... '.. I that ehe had no placo to which si io could go no hind friends on whom she could loan for support or protection, the outcast wandered about (he city, hard? ly 'knowing or cuing whither she went. The appearance of a young girl on thc streets of this great city, with wan, pinched features, and garments of coarse, homely texture, is not such an unusual sight as to attract the at? tention of any hmrianely-dispo: od passer-by, where all is bustle ami con? fusion. Night closed over the unfor? tunate, who, weak and hungry, sat down on thc side-walk on .Jackson street, where tho thought .d' her utter loneliness and destitution cause?.] thc tears to.flow freely down her cheeks. It was fast growing dark when a cou? ple of gaily-dressed voung fellows Lappcned.along. and. attracted by the sobs of the girl, questioned her us t<> thc cause of her grief.
