From' the m i lk-white breast that warmed

Where the dear eye glittered o'er ns, that

There's no love like the old love that we

Though oar leaves are tailing, falling, and

There are blossoms all around ns with tho

And we live in borrowed sunshine when the

There are no times like the old times-they

There's no place like the old place-keep

There are no friends like the old friends

There are no loves like our old loves-God

THE BIOGRAPHY OF A SHILLING.
BT . 8. B.
CHAPTER I.
Although philosophy has put forth some
?trange theories in tueso latter days, I think
there are stranger things in earth than
philosophy has yet dreamed of. In proof
of which, a circumstance happened to me
of a nature that has never been set down in
any thesis or set of theses of which I have
any knowledge. ' A friend of mine was
looking over some coins.
"I would like," said he, "to hear the
stories of all these pieces; they must have
strange tales to tell."
I thought no more of his words, until
some days ago, when a little battered piece
of silver, bearing date of a year long gone
by, fell into my hands. Coined in Spain,
it had doubtless traveled through many
countries; had been divided and joined to?
gether again; in fart, it hod a look of ad?
venture on its time-worn face that impressed
me curiously. While engaged in its exa?
mination, my friend's remark occurred to
me, causing me to think aloud:
"Poor old bb.illing! you are ono of the
'little ones' of this great financial world,
yet yon must have passed through strange
scenes. How I would like to hear you give
an account of yourself !"
"Would you?" spoke a voice, very low,
very clear and very near me. I tamed
n quick glance around, but saw no one. I
went to the door and looked out; no one
was near. I opened the window, glanced
np and down the outer wall, with no bettei
success. I returned to my counting-room,
upset my office chair, looked into the iron
safe, and even oast a furtive glance at the
?igeon holes of my desk; still the speakei
opt pertinaciously out of sight. To soothe
my perplexity, I turned to the coin, and
was Startled at the change that had conn
over it. The metalic visage was instinct
with life, the little dot that represented the
eye of departed majesty glowed with un
wonted brilliancy, and the thin lips trem
bled and opened:
"You would like to hear my story," il
said, "why don't you sit still and lister
then, instead of cutting np such queer ca
pore?"
"1 beg your pardon," I stammered, con
fused ly, "I did not know it was yon wh<
spoke."
"Well, it was," complacently, "and I'l
begin my story at once, if agreeable t<
you."
I signified my eagerneso to hear whatevc
it might have to say, and, without mon
ado, the old shilling drew itself np, with ?
look of grotesque dignity, and began:
"PH pass over the centuries that I slop
away, deep down in a South America]
mine, merely saying of my situation tha
my olfactories were.often assailed by fame
so peculiar as to give .use to an expressioi
now'ranch in vogue in sporting air?les th
world over. However, my wanderings com
mon oed. properly on the day that I receive?
the likeness of my gracious Sovereign, an
with many of my kind was placed, read;
for uso, in the mint of the country of m;
adoption. That same day a nobleman cam
with a draft on the royal exchequer, an
took me away, with heaps of yellow gold
Arriving at his castle, he sat down to cour
ns over. While thus engaged, a little giri
richly dressed, opened the door and cam
to bis side.
" 'Oh!-popo, how muoh goldi' and th
bright eyes and rosy fingers dived dow
into the shining heap.
"'Dou't disturb that, Inez. Hero is on
for yon,' and I was taken from the pile an
put ' -to the little hand.
' J >eur papa, may I have it for my vei
own?'
" 'Yes. Do with it whatever yon di
sire.' ii
"'Thank you, so many times,' and kis
ing her father, she went out, holding n
closely in the soft little palm.
"All this conversation," said the coin, i
a patronizing aside to me, "was carried c
in Spanish; not one word of which do ye
understand, so I give it to you in Enghsl
"Shortly after, the Donna Inez, stroilii
through the grounds that surronnded h
father's castle, came to the tall iron ga
that shut out the highway beyond. Hei
without the wall, crouched on the group
gazing on the child of wealth with wilt
hungry eyes, was the most wretched obje
that that fair child had ever seen. A bo
Sil and thin to attenuation, covered with
and raffa, held ont hits feeble band for
charity his evident misery ohallonged.
? !" 'Poor boyl' and the soft eyes oft the
little girl filled with ready team ?Here,
take this,' and I confess that I shuddered
w^th loathing as I slid %m the sf eat little
hand to the dirty ope putetretebfd to re*
coivo roe. There waa in the boy s thankful
look so much of famine that hit lo Inez in?
voluntary asked:
" 'Are you not hungry, poor fellow?'
" 'Ohl so hungry I* Tba sharp, eager
cry was startling in its intensity. j
" 'Wait a moment," and little Inez sped
quickly to the castlo, and soon re-appeared,
bringing with her a small basket that the
housekeeper bael filled with substantial
food. The little beggar actually trembled
from the strength of the hungry craving
within him, and Blipping me into his pocket,
whore I was fain to lie by the side of a vile
head of garlic, he greedily held out both |
hands.
" 'Here, little boy, take the basket, too;|
take it home with you. Have you a home?' i
" 'No. My mother is sick and starving
in that old hut up ibero,' waving his hand
up tho highway.
" 'Poor woman! I'll ask papa to rend
some one to her,' said tho little girl, turn?
ing back to the castlo.
"Tho boy plunged his hand into the
basket and commenoed devouring whatever
came to his eager clutch. I fancy that
wolves, almost famished in consequence of
the dreadful snow storms in their native
forests, must eat, when a morsel falls in
their way, as that boy ate then, crunohing
their food with fierce joy, nor leaving off
until the last craving has been satisfied. He
got up nt last, and taking the basket went
slowly ou until ho carno to the dilapidated
hut where his mother lay dying. With n
half frightened look, he pushed open the
creaking door and entered. On a heap of
filthy straw, in a corner of the room, was a
woman, who had once been young and
beautiful and pure. Qod help her! she was
neither now; and she was going-oh! so
swiftly-to that land where the pure only
shall seo God. She lay moaning feebly,
never noticing tho boy as he entered and
set his basket on tho ground floor. Sud?
denly a wild, unnatural light carno into the
sunken eyes, the skeleton bands stretched
vaguely in the air.
"'My God!' she cried, with spasmodic
energy, 'has it como to this? Am I dying,
and vengeance not yet tasted? Tell mo,
child,' her eyes flashing around the room
and lighting on tho boy. 'Oh! tell mo, is
this death? Yes,' not awaiting an answer,
'I know it is death; my sight is failing, and
my heart is cold withiu me.'
"She was quiet awhile, with the breath i
coming in quick, short gasps.
" 'Como here, William,' stretching her
hand towards the child.
" 'I am here, mother.'
"She put her hand in her bosom, and at
last, from its hiding place in tho rags that
partly covered her form, drew out a long,
keon dagger, and placing it in the boy's
band, said:
" 'Twenty years ago, he came with words
of guile and won mo from my happy Eng?
lish homo-won me but to destroy. It
broke my mother's heart, and laid my
father's white head in tho grave. For ten I
years I followed him, his very slave; the
?ast year I carried you iu my arms. He
had long been tired of my faded face, but I
would not leave him. Your cries, though
his own child, exasperated him beyond en?
durance, and on some preteiico ho sent us
away, promising that wo should come again.
I have never seen him since. He was in
the army; a Lieutenant, when he took
me from my home; a Colonel when he
sent me away; he is a General now, and
commands the fort below here.
" 'When I learned his desertion, I was ill
for a long time-my life bad been but a
broken one for many years, but now it
withered and died within me. I did not
pray then; I cannot pray now, though I am
wicked-oh! so wicked! But I longed to
live to seo him once more-not to go bock
and be his dog as I had been, but to plunge
this dagger into his false heart, and let the
black blood wash out all my wrongs. I
have followed him from country to country,
often for days and days with no bread in
my mouth, but with vengeance ever in my
heart. And now, when I am so near him,
for he is just below here at Gibraltar, I am
stricken down. I have not been so near
him as now for ten years, yet I will never
see him. Death has taken possession of me;
and he i ? my murderer, has slowly murdered
me for twenty yoars.'
" 'Oh! mother, don't die. See, I have
money-such a bright, new piece,' and he
took me out; 'thia will take you to Gibral?
tar, whero tho bad man lives. You need
not walk over the rough roads any more.'
" 'No, child, I will never walk any more,'
the voice almost inarticulate. 'Listen to
me-take my dying commands. Put tho
money into your pocket, you will need it;
tako this dagger, go to Gibraltar, and seek
him out; he is your father, but he cost you
off ; whou you see him, think of your
mother's wrongs, and strike home to his
heart.'
" 'I will, mother.'
" 'Swear it.'
" 'I swear it.'
"'I leave my vengeance in your hands.'
"There was none to whisper her Lord's
message into the dyiug year: 'Vengeance is
mine, / will repay.' As her feet entered the
dark waters, she called to tho backward
shore, 'Do not forget,'and passed over tho
swelling flood. Tho child gazed long and
earnestly into tho changed face, then, with
one wild cry, turned ana fled from the
placo forever.

For Diseases of the. Throat and Lungs, such as
Uuuqhs, Coeds, IFAoopfao Cough, Bron?
chitis. Asthma and Consumption.
PROBABLY never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and HO
deeply upon tho confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, and among most
of the raeesof men, it has risen higher and higher
in their estimation, as it has become better known.
Its uniform character and power to cure the vari?
ous affections of the lungs and throat, have made
it known as a reliable protector against them.
Whilo adapted to milder forms of diseaso and to
young children, it is at the same timo ti.e most
effectual remedy that can bo given for incipient
consumption, and the dangerous a fleet ions or tho
throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden
attacks of CROUP, it should be kept on hand in
every family; and, indeed, as all arc sometimes
subject to colds and coughs, all should be provided
with this antidoto for them.
Although settled CONSUMPTION is thought
incurable, still great nnmbors of cases where the
diseaso seemed settled have been completely
cured, and tho patient restored to sound health by
the CHERRY PECTORAL. So complete is its
mastery over the disorders of tho luugs and
throat, that the most obstinate of them yield to it.
When nothing elso could reach thom, under tho
CHERRY PECTORAL thov subside and disappear.
SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS lind great
protection from it.
ASTHMA is always relieved and often wholly
cared by it.
BRONCHITIS is gonorally cursd by taking the
CHERRY PECTORAL in small and frequent doses.
So generally aro its virtues known that we need
not publish tho certificates of them hero, or do
more than assure tho public that its qualities aro
fullv maintained.
AYER'S AGUE CURE.
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill
Fever. Itemittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
or Bilious Fever, &c, andindeed all the affections
which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasma?
tic poisons.
As its naroo implies, it does Care, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis?
muth. Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowiso injures any pa?
tient. Tho number and importance of its cures in
tho ague di-tricts, are literally bejond account,
and we believe without a parallel in the history of
Ague medicino. Our pride is gratified by the
acknowledgments we receive of the radical cures
ofTocted in obstinate eases, and where other reme?
dies had wholly failed.
Unacclimated persons, either resident in, or
traveling through miasmatic localitios, will be
pi oteeted by taking tho AGUE CURE dailv.
For LIVER COMPLAINTS, arising from tor?
pidity of tho Liver, it is an excellent remedy,
stimulating the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an excellent remeky, producing mauy truiy re?
markable cures, where other medicines bad failed.
