The Praying Children.
Mia. Whittlesey relates atory, which
will be useful and interesting to our
young readers. She says:
"In ono of our Western towns, a
clergyman was one morning told by
Ids wife, that a little boy, the son of a
neighbor, was very sick near to death,
and asked if he would not go in and
see him.
"I hardly know what to do," 6aid he.
?"I fear my visit would not be well
^received."
"But," rejoined tbe wife, "when you
were sick, a short time since, the mother
of the little boy sent in kindly every
day to know how you were, and I
think they will expect you to come and
: see their son.
This was a sufficient inducement; he
was soon on the way to the dwelling of
Borrow. The mother was hanging in
anguish over her precious and beautiful
child, who wos tossing from side to
side, in the delirium of brain fever.? j
The minister, after watching him a
tew moments, turned to tho lady and
said?
"This poor little child should be
kept perfectly quiet, madam; he should
not be excited in any manner.
"Sir," said she, "will you offer a
prayer ?"
At first he hesitated, fearing the effect
upon the child, but on second
thought knelt at the beusiue, ana uilaic
1 a few petitions in His name who
said. "Suffer little eliihlren to come unto
me." The moment he commenced
specking, the little sufferer; who until
now (Miom.fl unconscious of his presence.
ceased his moans, lay still upon
the he 1 and1 fixing his dark eyes upon
him, listened intently to every word.
The minister rose from his knees, said
a lew words to the rnothor, ami went
home, leaving the child in a perfectly
tranquil state. The next morning, the
first intelligence which greeted him
was, that little Frank liad died during
the night.
t; ^ He had become extremely interested
and the apparent effect of the voice
of prayer upon the dying boy had surprised
him. lie went again to visit
the lamiiy, attended the funeral, and
at length learned the following facts:
8ho had two children. Frank was
the eldest^ and. tliosecond was adaughtor
of five years. A few months before,
little Alice had gone to spend the night
with some companions in the neighborhood,
whose parents were Christains,
?id were training their children to fol
low their steps. As they wore about
retiring to rest, these little onceieaid to
their visitor, who did not know the

so many 1 iw since the Savior first uttered

Incident Among the. S wall we.
At breakfast a few roorings since,
wo heard an unusual twittering among
ho branches of the trees that overhung
tlie windows. iOar curiosity was
excited, for we thought perhaps tlioy
1 wcru making nests among the leaves.
AitCrra moment's search in a locust
tree wejsaw a bird suspended by his feet
front one of the branches. In a moment
a swallow came and fed him
something which he fetched in his
beak. Shortly three others came and
all together commenced an attempt to
j oxtricnte their unfortunate fellow. By
dint of long exortions and most vociferous
chatter the little follow was finally
lifted upon a limb. Then such
a chatter,chatter; twitter, twitter; and
fluttering of wings and hopping among
| the branches, ^vway went tue little
helpers and soon returnd with more
to feat for the prisoner. By the assistance
of a little boy who olimbed the
tree, the swallow was 60on brought to
the ground. It appeared that some
graceless scamp had tied a string about
two feet long to his foot, and the string
had caught on a thorn of the limb
and held the poor bird fast. How
long lie had been there we could not
say ; but all night, undoubtedly, as
thesonnds of the birds were heard the
day previous in that direction. In the
fruitless efforts that the little fellow
had made to extricate himself, he hAd
torn the flesh of his limbs upon the
sharp thorns of the locust tree in a
most shocking manner.
We removed the string in the most
careful manner, and placed the swal
Jow once more upon its lacerated feet
It sat panting with exertion and fright
for a moment, and then, spreading its
beautiful purple and black wings, sailed
away in the free air ugnin, and its
eompanions singing and circling about
it in great glee.
Hut something followed, as beautiful
I in its instincts as what we have related
The swnHow after a few free turn*
in the air flew to a small pond of water
i close by, and skimming over it, would
i touch the wounded limlw in the frcsli
: water. It did tliiB several times, and
I aftor a thorough hydropathic exjieri
nient, which, to our initio, was a deeji
lesson ot natural, instinct, the bird flew
away from onr sight?peidiafie to its
J desertpd young, or perhajra to its dis
| consulate mate.
The boy?it. probably was not a man.
and we know it was not a girl
?that tied tliat string to the poor little
swallow, should !hj looked to by his
parents, fur lie will be guilty of more
i cowardly and cruel deeds, it left tc
his wicked pnuiensities.

whether they come under the specious garb
of fiction, or io the direct form of anti slavery
pamphlets. At this critical juncture, while
our enemies are employing literature as their

people will sure!? not withhold their
couragemeut from'a work whose *4ih il shall
be to strike blows in their defence.
