Sltall lt Def A rich man, who had no children, proposed to hin poer neighbor, who had aoven, to tako ono or them, and promised, if tho paronts would consent, that he would -rive them pro? perty enough to mako themselves and their other six ohildron comfortable for lifo. Which Bhall it be? Whioh shall it be? I looked at John-John looked at mo, And when I found that I must speak, My voice seemed strangely low and weak. "Toll mo ?i g tun what Robert said;" And thon I, listening, bent mv head. This IB hid letter: "I trhl give A honso and land whilo you shall live, If in roi urn, from out your BO von, One ohild to mo for ayo io given." I looked at John's old garments worn; I thought of all that ho had homo Of poverty, and work aud care, Which I, though willing, could not share; I thought of noven young mouths to feed, Of sovon little children's nsed, And then of this. "Como. John,? said I, "We'll chooso among thom aa they Ho Asleep." So, walking hand to hand, Dear John and I Burvoyed our hand. First to tho eradlo lightly stepped, Whore Lillian, baby, slept. Softly tho father stooped to lay His rough hand down in a loving wny, Whon dream or whisper made her stir, And huskily ho said, "Not her !" Wo stooped besido tho trundle bed, And ono long ray ot lamp- li-ht abed Athwart tho boyish laces there, . In sleep so beautiful and fair, I aaw on James' rough red cheek A toar undried. Ero John could speak, "Ho's but a baby, too," eaid I, And kissed him as wo hurried by; Pale, patient bobbie's angel face Still, in his sleep boro suffering's trace "No, for a thousand crowns, not him," Ho whispered, whilo our eyes were dim. Poor Dick I bad Dick! our wayward Bon Turbulent, reo.tlc.is, idle one Could he bo spared? Nay; Ho who gavo Bade us befriend him to tho grave; Only a mother's heart conld bo Patient enough for such aa he. "And BO," said John, "I wonld not dare To tako him from her bed-sido prayer." Then stolo wo softly up tbovo, And knelt by Mary, child of love; '.'Perhaps for her 'twould better bo,'' I said to John. Quito silently Ho lifted up a curl that lay Across her cheek in wilful way, And shook his head. "Nay, love, not theo." Tho whilo my heart beat audibly. Only ono moro, our eldee t lad. Trusty and truthful, good and glad So liko his father. "No, John, no; I cannot, will not, let him go." And BO wo wrote, in courteous way, Wo could not givo ono child away." And afterward toil lighter seemed, Thinking of that of which wo dreamed, Happy In truth that not ono faco, Was missed from ita accustomed place; Thankful to work for all tho aoven, Trussing tho rest to Ono in Heaven. < ?-^ THE ENGLISH THRONE.-The following artiole was taken from the Charleston Courier of June, 1837, whence it was copied from tho Liverpool Courier: VERIFICATION OP AN ANCIENT PROVERB. The following prophecy is mud to have been delivered by n British bard, in the time of William the Norman, and pre? served by soma of the Monkish annual ists, viz: "That no moro than three monarchs, in direct succession, should ever again reigu over these kingdoms, without some violent interruption." 1, William tho Norman; 2, William Rufus; 3, Henry thu First. Interrupted by tho usurpation of Stephen. 1, Henry the Second; 2, Edward tho First; 3, Edward tbo Second. Inter? rupted by tho abdication and murder of Edward tho Second. 1, Edward the Third; 2, Richard tho Second. Interrupted by tho deposition of that monarch. 1, Henry the Fourth; 2, Henry the Fifth; 3, Henry the Sixth. Iuterrnpted by the restoration of tho House of York. 1, Edward the Fonrth; 2, Edward tho Fifth; 3, Riobard the Third.

In? terrupted by the parliamentary appoint? ment of a foreigner. 1, Qeorgo the First; 2, Qeorgo tho Se? cond; 3, George tho Third.

A woman at Oberlin, Obio, collected money for tho soldiers' orphans, and used it to buy a bonnet.

In other words, carefully and prudently-managed companies charging "mutual" ratea have been ablo to return to their policy-holders from 25 lo ?10 per cent, ot tho amount charged for premiums. When life insurance companies were lir.-t organized, reliability of the data upon which pre miunia were constructed had not undergone test bf experience. It was thought, therefore, no more than common prudence to adopt a scale nf premiunia which would, in any event, meet all the preaunied and unforeseen contingencies ol ibo business. Aa loug aa tho matter was involved in sumo doubt, it waa better to fix the rete lon high than to incur tho risk of mak? ing it too low; because, in tho fnrmir case, tho error could bo easily remedied, at least in part, by returning to tho poll ey-hold era, at certain intervals, fcutfh portion of the premium thar get I na waa found necessary for Ibo purposes of tho business and tho completo security nf I he company. Experience, however, having aniialactcn ily demonstrated that these rates aro excessive, what possible excuse can there li? fur maintaining tin ni? Availing themselves of thia experience, thc Directors and Managers of the Universal Life Insurance Company, ut ita organization, adnpn d a beale of |)remiuma in accordance there? with, and which baa proved to be fail and adequate, and all that waa neeesaary to meet tho requirements of thu bneinesa. These premiunia are about twenty-five per cent, lower than those charge by mutual eompnniia. It also appeared, Inasmuch as tho rates BO established ivcro aa near ns could tioafcihly be determined I it i r ratea, and not in excess of what insurance IIUH previously coi t tlie ])olicy-holdc rs in mutual companies, that any profits arising from (undent management juhtly and properly belonged to the stockholders of tho company, for the risk incurred by them 111 undertaking Hie business.
