IICTURES OP MEMORY.
BT ALICE CARET.
Among ’be beautiful pictures
Thai hang on memory’s wall,
Is one of a dim old forest,
Tint seeraeth the best of al! ;
Not r the gnarled o ks olden,
1)' k with the mistletoe;
N ' for the violets golden,
That spriukle the plains below :
X. > for the milk-white lilies,
Chat lean from the fragrant hedge;
ultin . ill day with the sunbeams,
at id stealing their golden edge i
Xo, for the vines in the upland,
Where the blight red berries rest,
Xj* the pinks, nor the pale, sweet cowslips,
it seemeth to me the best.
I i. ice bid a little brother,
With eves that ♦ere dark ami deep ;
In ’he lap of the dim old forest
He lieth in peace asleep :
Light as the down of the this.le,
F. ee as the winds thas blow,
We roved there the beautiful summers,
lie summers of long ago;
But his feet on the hills grew weary,
A id. one of the autumn’s eves,
1 made for my little brother
A bed of the yellow leaves.
fc-.yeetly his pale arms folded
My neck in a meek embrace.
As the light of immortal beauty,
Silently covered his face;
And when the arrows of sunset
Lodged in the tree-tops bright,
He fell, in his saint-like beauty,
Asleep by the gates of light:
Therefore, of all the pictures
That hang on memory’s wall,
That one of the dim old foiest
Seemeth the best of all.

Avoiding a Dun.—A compositor in
one of the daily newspaper offices, tho* a
good lellow, like many of the Faustian
p: cession, suffers from repea ed attacks
oi iunited finances, or revenue dispopor
tional to his disbursements. He has no
objection to paying hid debts to the last
penny when he has the money ; but when
he is short, he abhors the idea of meeting
one of his creditors, for he hates a duu
o- hi does tiie devil or a dirty “ proof.”
On ode ot toe last lew occasions of the
pressures upon this typo’s monetary mar
ket he was descending from the news
room to the street, when he met a collec
tor, who asked him if Jas. H. Smith —
going the printer’s name—worked in that
office.
\\ hy do you wish to see him ?” asked
Smith.
" I have a bill against him (producing
it) Mr leii by a Dr. A., who, you
remember, recently died, and his accounts
have been placed in my hands for collec
tion.”
James H. Smith," replied the com
pe~ :or, repeatir g Ins own name slowly,
H' • >' had a mysteriously familiar sound
• ui.l he were endeavoring to recall it. “ i
■ e heard that name before surely,
iantes H Smith—James—James H.—
yes I (as with a sudden remembiance)
-• Wed io be employed here, certainly lie
h I ri member now ; lie worked next
'o my case, poor fellow!" and the speaker
paused and looked sad.
“ Did anything happen to him?" asked
the collector.
‘ Yes. He died suddenly one morning
of cholera, after attending the sick bed of
a friend.”
“ Did ne leave anything ?" asked the
man of hills.
“ Oh. no The boys had to bury him.
gave S-5 myself to put the generous
eatur under the sod. He died penni
less."
“ Then, there’s no use keeping this bill,
I suppose ?"
“ None at alland, as (lie collector de
earted—•• I guess I’ve trot rid of that old
' ne. Ft wasn’t, perhaps, so much of a
try tit it I was telling. Probably F was
only anticipating a little, alter all.”
—— PotUepcss is a grout accomplishment.
An impudent clerk can do almost as much in
ii v to a store as the neglect of the pioprietor
advertise his goods. These are two signifi
cant facts, which every interested person
.ould bear in mind. * —
