The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, September 15, 1869, Image 4
I ^rCT
?Though the day pt my destiny's orer,
?ndi the et&r of my raid hath declined,
Thy 8o?t heart refused to discover
The faults which so ma? could, dud; '
Though thy soul with my grief was acquainted,
It shrunk, pot to sharo it with me;
And the love which my spirit hath painted
..It never hath found but in thee.
Though human, thon didst not deceive me;
Though woman, thou didst not forsake;
Though loved, thou forborestto grieve me;
Though slandered, thou nov*r oould'st shake;
Though trusted, thou didst not disclaim me;
Though parted, it waa not to fly,
Though watchful, it waa not to defamo mo;
Nor mute that the world might belie.
From tie wreck Cf tbs ".tai whioh hath porish'd
Thus muoh I at least may recall, '
It hath taught me that what I most cherished
Deserved to be dearest of all.
In the desert a fountain is spring ?UK;
In the wild waste there still ia a treo;
And a bird in 'bo solitude einging,
Which Bpoaks to my spirit of thee.
THE ORGAN OinSDEK.
It was oniy au organ grinder before
the door-a grim, swarthy Italian, with
an evil eye and.orael mouth; end at his
side a fair-haired creature? whose features
looked blue and pinched with cold.
It was in a .West End street, and be?
fore the door of an elegant mansion. He
swung the organ from his back, and be?
gan that exquisite little melody, " Rock
me to Sleep, Mother:"
A fair pale face looked down through
the closed blind of one of the upper win?
dows, with eyes dimmed with constant
weeping. Even how, great tears were
swelling in their depths, and dropping
silently down on the sable dress, with its
heavy folds of crape. She had been
standing there, looking listlessly down
into the street, seeing, without marking
anything. She had followed the organ
grinder's passage across the street, saw
him station himself before the door, and
then had turned tc something else with
that vague wandering that comes with
sorrow.
The plaintive notes rose to her ear,
and Uho quick up-springing tears told
that they had found their way to the
heart. The fountain was touched, and
the smarting wound was made to bleed
afresh-and a memory did it. A few
short weeks before, she had stood in thc
self-same spot, hearing the very air; lis?
tening not for the music's sake, but to
please a golden-haired prattler at hei
side, who had coaxed mamma to give thc
new boots, her special pride, to the pooi
little girl with the cold shoes, whose little
toes, Snowing redly through two greal
rents, had excited the warm-heartec
child's compassion. The mother dre?
the little pleader to her heart, and telling
her how useless would be the boots, gave
her a warm worsted dress and a pair o:
stout shoes; and to eu courage her child';
generous impulses, left her to bestov
thom herself on the poor little starveling
shivering in the streets below. It was i
beautiful sight, at whioh the angels migh
have smiled; and the mother's heart hac
Slowed with deeper pride, a deeper ten
ern ess.
"Clasped to your heart in a loving cm
brace"-the chorus rolled forth wi tl
thrilling power. She forgot that it wai
but a street organ, whose music sb)
would have turned from in disdain
a month before. The musio seemed almos
to speak to her, as the words chased eacl
other through her mind. "Book me t<
sleep, mother, rook meto sleep." Sh
had rooked her treasure, clasped it t<
her heart for the last, last time; held i
close till the white limbs grew cold am
rigid beneath the touch of death; ant
even then, her frenzied olasp refused t<
release itself, and only when nature be
came exhausted, and she fell fainting t<
the floor, could they take the dead chile
from her arms. Days of dark deliriun
followed; and while her tongue callee
wildly upon them to leave ber child, the;
{mt her darling from her sight-shut th*
ittle faoe, with its halo of golden hair
under the coffin-lid, and laid the tin;
form in its last resting place; and whei
she awoke to consciousness and a sens
of her loss, a little grave in the cemetor;
was all that remained of her idol.
Memory flew swiftly over the interva
between-the drear, aching void-th
lonely night hours, when, waking fron
sleep with a fitful start, she again seeme<
to hear the sweet, childish lips cullin,
"Mother !" only the next instant to tur;
with a hopeless sigh from the moekin,
fnnoy.
The organ took up the strain again
this time with au added plaint, and th
hot tears fell faster. Why should H
take her child, precious to her as he
own life, and leave such children as th
one below, to bo brought up in miser
and vice? And she looked, throug
angry, rebellious tears, at tho little figur
standing so patiently at tho side of th
organ, that readied above her heat:
"Suffer little children to oome unto me.
The words forced themselves into th
wild tumult of thought Uko a holy bone
diction, and the angry heart softenec
Would the Saviour turn from that foi
lorn little one for the garb of povott
that covered tho shrinking form-ca?
ber off for the wretchedness in wisdoi
ordered? Perhaps some mother's bea:
would ache over her loss, justas did her
over the baby-form now cold in dus
The very thought, the picture of anotln
mother's pain and desolation, struck
tender chord that made her look wit
newly-awakened interest at tho child.
She noticed the delicate, clean-cut fer
tnres, so unusual in children of her das
and the tangled, curly bair, oreepin
from under tho old hat, and hanging o
her shoulders in little yellow rings, ju:
like the bright looks she had so oftc
twined above the brow of her own child
her lost Ida. There wero the vei
shoes, only looking poorer now, thi
once pressed the little dead feet, no
doing service in many a weary tram]
many a weary hour of patient standini
as tho old organ went through its roun
of melody-tho shoe Ida bad given I
the "organ man's littlo girl." WL
should she not continue the lesson <
charity taught on that remembered day
again extend a helping bund to that litt
waif on the sea- pf humanUy? .Sh?
might mal? on? haart happier in this
life. Bid*, ia this world'* goods, but
poor in th? content. and peace of mind
whiiih rank* un the heart's hap ni nena,
she would stifle tho yearnings of lier
mother-love in deeds pf charity, ana
find forgetfulness in seeking to lighten
the burden of others.
One more look at the shrinking figure,
and Mrs. Clifford bad decided. Crossing
the room, she pulled the bell, and a mo?
ment after, a broad, good-humored Irish
face appeared at the door. 1 *
"Jane,'there is an organ grinder be?
fore the door, and with him a littte
child, who looks as though sho were half
frozen. Bring her up to my room; I
wish to speak to her. Tell her I will only
keep her a few minutes.
"Yes, ma'aml" And houest Jane dosed
the door softly behind, her, with a mur?
mured "Bless her kind heart! She ain't
took no notice of anything before since
Ida died. It's been a sorry enough house
since that day." And she heaved a heavy
sigh as she passed down stairs.
Mrs. Clifford watohed the man motion
the child toward the door, saw her leave
him, and a moment after re-appear; and
then, by her earnest manner, and th?
quick passage of his eye over each win?
dow, knew that she was repeating
Jane's words. His approving nod told
her success, and she again ascended tin
stops.
it was singular, considering how de
spondent she had felt but a few moment:
before, With ' how much interest sh?
watohed for the child's coming. Sh?
soon made her appearance, shrinkhu
dose to Jane's side as she entered tba
elegant apartment, that seemed liki
some beautiful dream to the child, win
had become used to bare walls and car
petless floors; and when Jane drew kc
into the room, she advanced with batei
breath, and feet pressed gingerly on tb
rich carpet, as though fearful that th
little torn shoes would crush the brigh
flowers beneath.
"Thank you, Jane; I shall not ncc*
you now."
And when the door had closed behim
her, she drew tho shy, shrinking figur
to her, saying, gently, in that swec
voice habitual to her: "Do not be afraid
my child, but tell me your name."
"Jessie, ma'am."
Aud the blue eyes ventured to rais
themselves to tho kind face abovo ber's
"That is a nice, pretty name; and i
that your father with tho organ, Jessio?
"Oh, no, ma'am!" she auswere
quickly, and with emphasis, her li
trembling.
"He is some relative-your uncle, pei
haps? Come, Jessie, I want you to te
me all abont yourself. I ?ovo litt]
children, and whenever I find a littl
girl like yon, I am going to do all I cn
to help her." And she wound her ari
around her, as she added, softly: "I hn
a little girl once, about as big as yoi
Jessie. She is an angel now, and
haven't any little girl loft; but, for hi
sake, all little children are dear to me,
She could not have explained the in
pulse that moved ber to speak so to thi
child, who said, with husky voice:
"It was the little girl with curls, wi
gave me tho frock "nnd shoes. Mamn
used to tell me, Heaven loves those wi
are good. May be that is why it toe
your little girl. I feel so sorry for yo
ma'am." And the eyes looked with ten
ful sympathy into hers. The words we
simple, but the mother's love in Mr
Clifford's heart welled up at tho touchii
tone.
"Perhaps, Jessie. He knows what
best." And with assumed cheorfulne
she asked, "Where is your mothe
Jessie? You must tell me about yon
self, now."
"Mother is gone to papa. She to
me just before she died, that she want
mo to always be good. I do try, but
feel sometimes that I wish I might d
too." And, forgetting everything b
her grief, she put her face in her han
and sobbed aloud.
It was pitiful to see the effort s
made thc next minute to conquer L
grief, and her brave attempt to go on.
"Wo wero very poor; and the day af I
mamma died, tho organ mau came to r
and asked me if I would like to go abc
with bim and take the pennies. He sr
he would give me my clothes and viel
als. I didn't have nnywhore oise to f
and so, after they put mamma away,
went with him. But ob, ma'am, it is
cold out all day; and then bo is very cr?
! sometimes, and I often go to bed hangi
Oh, if he only know I told you Uni
And her face paled as she looked town
the window.
"My poor child, I don't moan that
shall." And her kiud heart filled w
indignation as sho thought of the \
kindness practiced toward that lom
iud defenceless little one.
"Mamma gavo this to me when ?
died. Sho wouldn't sell it when wo w
poorest, and abe told me never to let a
ono take it from me."
And drawing a little locket from ]
bosom, she laid it in Mrs. CH flor
baud. A fair, girlish ince looked out
her from ono sido, with the wavy li
and blue eyes of Jessie, and in the ot!
a handsome, manly face, with clear c
aristocratic features; and sho could
then from whom tho child inherited ',
uncommon delicacy of couutenaucc.
"Papa au'1 mamma's pictures," ;
explained, simply, as Mrs. Clifford 1
it thoughtfully back in ber hand.
She restored it to its hiding place w
a little start, os the organ, having pla
through its rouud of tune?, returned
its first melody.
"I must go now; I am afraid be i
be very angry. You seem so much 1
my own mamma, that I forgot eve
thing."
Mrs. Clifford did not answer, but lo
ed at her n moment in deep thought.
"Jessie, come to-morrow and briug
organ-man, as you call bim, with y
Tell bim to be hore about this ti
without his organ. I want to soe ;
both. Do not let him know what
passed between us, if yon can help

and H be scolds yon, giv? biA> tkfef
pnd she ?brew % sovereign from ber purse.
ll dp not tbwk Lo will rtfofc? to come;
but if be should, yon musk fiad yow way
here alone.". fi ' ".'
"Yoi; Warn; I'shan^ forget; thank
you." "
And with a little courtesy that showed
how careful must bave been her training
at some time, she passed from tho robin,
closely followed by Mrs. Clifford, who
watched to eeo be:* down .the stairs, and
then re-entered her room and went to
the window in time to see the dark
frown of displeasure on the man's face
vanish in au avarioious smile as he
clutched the money the ohild extended
to him.
Jessie's parting glance up at her win?
dow was seen and remembered even
when Mrs. Clifford's head had sought
her pillow. She bad a long talk with
her husband that night, in which she
made him acquainted with Jessie's his?
tory, and her desire to adopt her. Never
refusing her slightest wisht how could he
deny her that which would wean ber
thoughts from the past?-and though a
great pang went through his heart at,tho
thought of another occupying the place
of his lost Ida, be pressed a tender kiss
on bia wife's forehead ns he gave his con?
sent, a.id she never knew what it cost
him.
Many times, next day, she found her?
self wondering whether or not tho man
would come; and she worked herself into
a perfect fever of excitement. She knew
that tho child was an advantage to him,
for many would bostow a fow peunies
for her sake, who might otherwise turn
away; and yet, might he not, by giving
her up, hope to reap a still greater ad?
vantage. He knew that she had not
been chary of her gifts thus far. And
so she reasoned while she waited.
And yet she was surprised when both
ho and his little companion made their
appearance. She noticed the quick flush
of delight which overspread tho face of
thc child, and hor heart warmed instant?
ly. Without any prefaco, she introduced
the subject, stating her wishes. Ho lis?
tened to ber, and then began in a com?
plaining, whining sort of n way, to tell
what au expense sho had been to him,
and then directly contradicted himself
with tho statement that ho could not get
on without her. Mrs. Clifford stopped
him instantly with tho assurance that ho
should not suffer; she would moke tho
matter right in that respect, and sho
named a sum for resigning her that mado
his oyes sparkle greedily, and instantly
won his consent.
There was but one tie that linked Jessie
to tho old life-a lock of hair and a few
simple relics belonging to her mother;
and when these were removed from the
miserable little room that had been hers,
and a farewell visit paid to the spot
where that mother's life had gone out,
thc last link that bound the past with the
present was broken; and when Jessie
took ber placo in her new home, it was
as tho adopted daughter of the wealthy
Mrs. Clifford.
