\VlLl.II-I AND ME.

A ICOTC II IA!-LAD.

As wanderiri’ my lane down by sweet Birkensliaw, An‘ thinkin' on days that are itoo gun aw.-t‘,

I noticed ttva cnutliie wee birds on a tree—- Thinks I, sue that's unco like Willie on‘ me.

They lilted about, an‘ nae blytltely tltey sang; The fIutter‘d and courted, I kenmt how hing; My beiirfwas as htippy itn‘ fu_ll as could be, They minded tne sue o‘ iity Willie as’ me.

I wonder if n’ the wee birds o' the dell.

As kindly and fondly tlteir love tales could tell. And I wottder‘d, if any two mortals could be. As happy an‘ leul as tity \Villie an’ me.

They a’ may be happy-~wh_v should they no? An’ lassies fu’ meikle ritay thiitk 0' their joe; But ntietliing on earth, in the air or the sea, Can be halfsae happy as \Villie so me.

My \Villie‘s sac guide. an‘ my Willie's sac kin, And then, oh, thank Heaven, dear \Villie is mine; In tlte joy o’ my heart, the tear draps free my e‘e, To think we're one happy, my VVill'ie an‘ me.

The hero tnay sigh for tr.nir laurels, the loon;

The tyrant ntay grasp at a kingdom or crown;

(‘ontented an‘ happy l‘d live till I doe,

Though they tsk' a’ the world but my \Villin frae me. Wu. Cass nitoiv.

THE BATTLE OF LIFE.

One of the most siunificant phrases yet uttered by that felicitoits writer, Charles Dickens. is the one which stattds at the head of this article. Our life, from the cradle to the grave, is a series of antagonisms. Sickness, sorrow, temptation, sin, remorse, poverty, fatigue, hitiiger—thesc are the enemies which wage ti continual fight against us. \'Vithin and with- out, the fees of the flesh and foes of the spirit, generally acting in concert, make our life one long and earnest battle. And in this strife how many fall, wounded and faint, and yield to the enemy. fierce or subitle, which is fighting against the soul. How different the circumstances arid the inherent powers of those who are carrying on this conflict. Some are left from the first to contend single-handed and unaided, while otlters are surrounded by a friendly band who encourage, by cheering words, valuable advice and efficient aid, him who,if left to him- self, would fall. Seine have art inna'e strength and energy of spirit which knows no defeat, while others yield inglorioosly to the most insignificant foes.

There is no spectacle more interesting, more sulilime, than a

oung man going out alone in the world to fight the battle of life. There are thousands every year leaving their homes to enter the arena of coitflict and contend as they test may with the adverse influences which beset their paths. And how often rlo we observe that tltose who scented weakest and least furnished for the contest are most triumphant. It is in his own soul that the young man finds his most eflicient armory. If he can draw weapons from thence which may parry the thrusts of his adversaries, there is no fear of his being vanqtiished. Sometimes a young man seems for a time to succumb to evil influences and we deem him lost, but he finally rises again above temptations and triumphs at last. He has, perhaps, been drawn back from destrucion by the influences which were shed around his childhood by a wise and gentle mother. The influence of a mother’s early prayers and counsels seems but a slender cord, btit it is fastened to the tenderest spot in our bosoms. and if. in after life, we stray from the right path, that little cord will be found tugging at our heartstriogs.

In this battle of life the most sublime achievements, the most glorious victories are won in silence and in secret. The struggle goes on where the world cannot see, and the final reward to the conquering fpirit cannot be full realized until it has passed away from the world altogether. f we were gifted with keencr perceptions, we might cvery day witness upon earth triumphs which would slted around poor human nature a halo of glory, and cause us to remember and realize that man wss truly created in the image or God.—Bostori Museum.

Antenna-I: or GEN. Jscxsoiv.—Tlis Ilon. —, who was a Baptist preacher, and Lieut. Govt-rnor, had at one and the some time been in the service of the Lord, and of the State of Illi- nil, becoming dissatisfied with the honors or profits, or both, of the posts he held, determined to resign them, and devote his time and talents to the assistance oftlie administration in carrying on the us- neral Government. Accordingly he went to Washington and laid his case before the President. He stated his pretensions and wishes, narrated at sotne length all the prominent events of his political life, dwelling especially upon his untiririg devotion to the Democratic party, the sacrifices he had subriiitt ‘ to, the exertions he had made in its belinlf, and its consequent indebtedness to him, but said not a word of what he had done for the cause of religion. Go- nerttl Jackson heard the clcricnl aspirant through, in silence ,nud af- ter musing for a moment, put the following question to him:

“ Mr. K, are you not it minister of the Gospel?"

“ I am, sir," was the reply.

“ Then, sir," said the General, with his usual quiet dignity, F‘ you hold already nltigher office than any in my gift—an office whose duties properly ierformsd, require your whole attention; and really I think the beat I can do for you will be to leave you at liberty- to devote your whole time to them, for, from what you tell me, I fear that hitherto they have been neglected.”

Furl‘. Csnsitic IIrtr¢nxt:itciin:rs.—A most wonderful piece of linen has been woven for the \Vorld‘s Exhibition in the Nortlt of Ireland, near \Vsrringstown, by a wearer named George Ilriddock. It is a web of fine cambric liitndkerchiefs. Small print can be read throu h it, and yet the web is so close and compact, that it single thread would not be distinguished without the aid of a microscope, or rather web glass. The cambric when held up to the light, looks like a fine and airy fabric/"I: In the roduction of this beautiful gossamer-looltirt ciintbric, Mr. Hnddoc almost realized what class- io fiction sscri to the perfor mnnce of Aritchne, who, as mytho- Iogists inform us, was converted into a spider on account of equal- ling that ingenious little artist in her production of fine webs.
