A Carlo??? tlucstlon. ? * A daughter! ... ., brought her? KU tv asks". "How came she herc?" Hali w?h joy, ami half with fear. Kitty is our eldest emla Eight years old and rather wild - Wild in manner, but in mind Wishing all things well defined. Kitty t>avs, "How came she herc? Father, "tell mc-it's so queer; Yesterday we had no sister, Else I'm sure I should have kissed lier When I went to bcd last night! And this morning hailed her sight With a strango and new delight; For, indeed, it passes all To have a sister not so tall As my doll! and with blue eyes! And -I do declare-it cries'. Last night I did not see her, father, Wr I'm sure I had much rather Stayed at homo as still as a mouse, Than played all day at grandma's house; She is pretty and so tiny And what makes her face so shiny? Will it always bo iiko that? Will she swell up plump and fat, Uko my little doll? or tall Like my wax ono? Tell me all About her, papa dear, For I do solong to hear Where she came from. And who brought her, Your's and mama's bran-new daughter!" A daughter! another daughter! And the question is, "What brought her?" Spence, our boy, but three years old, Says thc nurse did-and is bold, In defiance of them both Since to yield his place he's loth, And, pouting, feels his nose's point. When I declare 'tis out of joint. But though the childish explanation Be food enough for child's vexation, We older folks must better find, To feed the hungor of the mind. To us, of larger issues preaching, This link of Cfc eternal reaching From earth to Heaven, this new-born soul Comes fresh from where ever roll Its countless years through yonder Heaven, Has deeper canse for thinking given. * * A daughter And what brought her? No matter what-she comes to bring A blessing hi her Lfe's young spring; "No matter, darling, sho is nore Our daughter, sister, baby dear Open your hearts, and let her enter. Open them wide, for God hath sent lier." GOD'S GREETINGS.-God greets many a one who never observes, and many more who never thank him for it. When, for instance, his sun wake thee to tho enjoyment of another day of life and health, it is as if he said to thee, "Good morning!" and when, at eventide, thine eye closes in peace? ful slumber, it is because God hath bid thee "Good night," and when thou sittest down to a well-spread board with a good appetite, it is God's gift for thy good. When, again, thou art enabled timely to discover some threatened danger, what is it but God saying to thee.- "Take heed, my child, and turn back before it is too late." "When, ou some early summer morning, thou walkest about amid thc blossoming flowers and the sing? ing birds, and thy heart feels light and joyful, is not God saying to thee : "Welcome to thy palace garden ?" And when, all of a sudden perhaps, without thou knowing how or why, thy heart is moved to good thoughts, and thou beginnest to feel sorrow for having done wrong, and a desire to do better, is uot thy Heavenly Father saying to thee: "Oh, grieve not my Holy Spirit which now sits within thee ?"-From the Germon. A gentleman at a musical party, seeing that the fire was going out. asked a friend, in a 'vhispor, how to stir the fire without interrupting tho music?" "Between the bars," re? plied the friend. In our anxiety that our morality should not take cold, Ave sometimes wrap it up in a great blanket-surtout of precaution against thc breeze and and the sunshine. Mrs. Harriot Lane, niece of ex President Buchanan, has been made happy-she married a Baltimore banker, named Johnston. Man has taught even the lightnings to forget their thunders, and to whisper, as they flicker along thc wires, the accents of his thought. Thc solitude of childhood is not so much the mother of thought as it is feeder of love and silence and admi? ration.

THE ON LY RECOGNIZED DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN NEW YORK, DAILY, SEMI-WEEK? LY AND WEEKLY. TO THE PUBLIC. THE NEW YORK NEWS HAS BATTLED against despotism for four ycart) of blood and terror, in assertion of tho sanc? tity of tho Constitution. A patriotism sufficiently broad to embrace both sections has been its only guido, and it refers nove with honest pride to its record to show that it oas not turned to the right or tho loft under all tho violence of arbitrary power. True to its principles as Till' NEWS han been through the re\<?n of terror, it chal? lenges public confidence in its honesty and independence for tho future. Thc political transition of the present day opens to THE NEWS a new and wider field of usefulness. Standing now, as it always has, on tho inviolability of tho Con? stitution, according to tho interpretation of tho strict constructionists, it presents a rallying pro und for all, in both sections, who are friends of a generous conservat ism. As a true and tried exponent of sectional amity, it occupies a position which makes it the fitting mediator in holding up to tho party of order, in both sections, interest? and principles that pivn breadth and vi? tality to their alliance. As an intersec? tion al apent, devoted to freedom of elec? tion, to trial by jury, to the sanctity of tho habeas corpus, and opposed now, as for four years of terror it has been, to the cen? tralization that dares to trample on tho rights of States, North or South, THE NEWS places itself as a candidate for sup? port before tho great body of this once free people. Tin; circumstances of thc moment make thc dissemination of the principien of THE NEWS a duty of individual patriotism. Every man who concurs in its doctrine must, if ho entertain a true sense of free? dom, do so in no spirit of indifference, but rather with the earnestness of a high trust. Justified, nay bound, in bis love of liberty, to do 80,thc proprietor places the canvass he makes hero of thc public generally in the hands of those men who give him tho ap? proval of their consciences as his individual agents. Every reader of TUE Nr:ws cannot avoid thc conviction of duty which is hero pointed out as the ground of tho request, that he urges its claims for a wider support upon all ot his friends and neighbors who give their earnest sympathies to the cause of "strict construct ion,'' interscctional con? ciliation, and all thc rights ol' the citizons un<b'r the system set up by our fathers of liberty regulated by law. Thc proprietor of TUE NEWS calls, therefore, upon good and true Conservatives throughout tho country, to discharge, to their convictions i of political right at this groat crisis in thc country's fortunes, tho duty of giving to the influence of his paper, daily, semi? weekly or weekly, the w ider power for good i which* it seeks here through tho service of its individual supporters.
