J the sweetest recollections of my to irlhood is a beautiful repjy my mother One of once made me, when my heart was swell- ing with childish grief. I had just returned from the house of a wealthy neighbor, who had kindly given me the use of their piano for a few hours overy day to gratify ,my extremo love for music. Our own cottage home looked so plain in contrast witn tho one I had just left, and no piano within its walls, I laid my head upon tho table and gave vent to my overflowing heart. T felt grieved, and perhaps a little angry, that we were unable to afford the one thing I desired above all others a piano and expressed my feelings to my mother. Never shall I forget her sweet, gentle tone, as she simply replied, "Never mindf daughter, if you cannot have a piano on earth, you may have a harp In heaven." Instantly the whole current of my feelings was changed. Earthly things dwindled intoinsigniflcance, and the "harp In heav-e- n,' with Its golden, strings, became tho olyect of my desire." I'folt reproved for my replninga against tho Providence that had placed me j in a Tiumbio home, and from that moment the enjoyment of heaven seemed far to outweigh all the plesures of earth. That beautiful reply "ha3 followed ino all my life, or rather has gone before molike a bright guiding starlifting my thoughts above this transient life, and opening to my spirit's vision the glorions scenes in that Wand; of life and light'" I have n "piano on earth" now, but, Its charm is gone. Its music" no longer gladdens my heart as it once did, for the ears that' loved best tolisten to its sweet tones, are now enraptured with tho grand harmonies of -- - - Palace of Fashion, No. heaven. The dear Angers ' that so often touched i ts keys now sweep tho goldon O, that "harp in heaven !" x its How my soul longs for one breath of ' rich melody! As I look upon the dear baby fingers in the cradle near me' I think it matters little whether my child be poor or rich whether her path be strewn with thorns or flowers if she may only have a "harp in heaven."

DRY NOTIONS, GROCERIES, HEAVY AND SHELF HARDWARE, GLASS AND QUEENSWAEE, AGRICULTURAL 1MPLEMNETS, dc Nearly seven hundred years ago, a young Mongolian prince named Genghis (or Zinghis) while engaged in warfare with a Tartar tribe, was defeated in battle, and so hotly chased by his enemies that he was like to be captured. His shattered defend, era lost sight of him, and he fled alone in momentary peril of death. Exhausted at last, and with scarcely a hope of saving himself, he plunged into a thicket, and lay listening withjbeating heart while the Tartars camo on, raging for his blood. . They knew he nad disappeared somewhere in the immediate vicinity, and to his horror they stopped directly before his hiding-place- . Instead of searching the bushes, howdver, they held a short consultation and passed on; and from the words he overheard, Genghis learned the cause of his deliverance. As the pursuers appioached, a white owl was seen sitting calmly on a tree directly over the thicket. It flew away, frightened at their appearance and noise, and the barbarian warriors said, "If the man had been herethat bird would have been disturbed before. Let us go on." And so Genghis was saved, to become one of tho conquerors of the world,and Emperor of all Tartary and Northern China and Eastern Persia. In grateful remembrance of his preservation, ho and his followers adopted the snowy owl as their guardian ensign, and ever after tho picture of the bird was displayed on tho Mongol and Kalmuck battle-flagT.
