OUR HOMESTEAD.
BY MIsS PHARE CAREY,
Our brown old homestend reared its walls
From the waysile dust sloof,
Where the apple-boughs cotld almost cast
Their fruituge o the rovl
And tiie cherry-tree so nenr it grew,
That when awake ['ve inin
In the lomesome uighis, I've heard the limbe
As ther crenked ugninst The pane |
And those orchard trees, Ol ! those orcbard trees !
I'v - seen my little brothers rocked
In their tops by the s imumer breeze.
The sweet-brier under the window-sill,
Which the early birds made glad ;
And the damask rose by the garden fence,
Were a'l the flowers we had,
I've looked on many & flower since then,
Exotics rich and rare,
That to olher eyes were lovelier,
But not to me so fair
For those roses bright, Oh ! those roses bright !
I've twined them with my sisier's locks
That are lain in the dust from sight !
\ao\lud a well, a deep )d well
‘here the spring wis never riry.
And the cool diops down from the mossy stones
~ Were fulling coustantly |
And there never was waler half 80 sweet
As that 10 my hittle cup,
Drawn up to the curb by the rude old sweap,
Which my futher’s hand set up |
And that deep old well, Ob that deep old well
1 remember vet the splashing sound
Of the bucket as it fell.
Our homestead had an ample hoarth,
Where at ngght we loved 1o meet
There my molher’s voice was alwaye kind,
\l\d her voice Was aiMavs sveast ”
And there 've sat on my tuther's knee,
And watched his thoughttl prow,
With my chidish hand in his raven bair—
That bair s silver now !
But thut broad hearil’s hight, Oh ! that broad hearth’slight
And my father’s look, and my mo her's smile,
They are in my heart to-night.
OPEN-HEARTED.
BY CHAKLES sWalw
If you wish te be happy at home,
Then your liewrt to that wish is the door.
Keep it open—and angels may cote,
And enter and dwell evernore !
Oer uch feeling a ray will be cast,
Asif it by somie magical gen ;
You will think sou've found heaven at last,
But the angels have brought it with them.
Keep it open—and friendship and love
And happiness—all—will be thine:
A gleam of Elysium above !
A spurk of the spirit divine !
Keep 1t siint—and then Pride will have birth,
And Bovy, and all we condemn ;
You will think you've perdition on earth,
Pride and Envy bhave brought it with them.
The world will seem colder each day ;
"I'ls an image those dewons but throw ;
Cast your pride and your envy away,
And the word’s seeming coldness will go
O, *tis well to be Lappy at home,
And to this your own heard be the door ;
Keep it open, and angels imay come,
Aud enter und dwell evermore,
fliscellancous.
THE GAMBLER'S FATE.
*Another gliss of Caracoa, and then for St,
James's,” swid Russell to his friend. *Has

'No, replied Melvil, *ever opposed, both by

votaries. Surely you donot play ¥
Very Lo, responded Russell, carelessly,
‘and merely for amusement; 1o night, how
ever, | have, as | told you belore, an appoint
ment 1o be kept. You will uccompany me, |
hope ! you need not play.’
“T'o part with eachi other 8o soon, and after
s 0 long a separation, with so much 1o talk
about, and so many iriends to inquire after,
requires more philosophy than 1 can boast of
PUSSESSIng, 80 as your appointment must be

Roussell smiled G‘.nc-os!i(‘.a”.\'.
‘Possibly your Scoteh seer spoke from ex
pericnce. Who hknows but that some cun
ping chiel had won a groat from himat a fair,
and be thought the likemight happen toyou!
Nevertheless, | should like to understand this
second sight, as you phrase il, very well, see
ing that it would prove wo üble auxiliary at
bazard.’
The Curacoa was drank, the cab ordered,
and the scene weschanged. Ouoe hiour after
wards he was deeply engaged inthe mysieries
of play, and Melvil oecasioually looking un,
and auon chatteriog with some lordlings to
whom his frieud had jotroduced him, patient
ly awaiting the termioation of an amusement
for which he entertained no small degree of
distaste. Russell won largelyv. Seated ai the
same table with bim was ove of those profess
ed plavers wio uightly haunt the gaming table.
He was of middle age, of gentlemanly man
vers, and seemed well koown to those by
whom he was surrounded.
*What, losing again to night, Hawkes?’
said one of (he bystanders, adJressing him we
pave described, *this 18 bud; vou have last
night's losses to repay already.’
“I'rue,” rephied the person addressed, and
Melvil, well versed in human nature, noticed
a peculm;imnnmun in the voice of the speak
er, which displayved fierce internal agitation of
mind, al'bough to 4 corumon observer it might
bave Leeu imperceptible. *True, 1 must;
apnd you sec that [ shall win prescutly.’
‘lndeed!" exclaiined the oiher, ‘well, well,
we shail see that.'
v effect, the prophecy of the player appear
ed magical, for anon the luck changed; Rus
sell's high pile of gold dwindled rapidly away;
each successive throw of the dice connibuted
materially to reduce it, while that of Hawkes
speedily became the largest vn the board,
‘Roussell ” whispered Melvil, ‘leave this dan
gerous pastime-—the luck, you see, has
changed.’
*And will change again,' replied Russell.
‘I know my adversary well ; good fortune rare
ly abides with hin.’
‘I am glad to hear that you koow him,* re
plied Melvil, gravely, ‘for really | had suspeci
ed some foul play. Pray, who is he ¥’
‘He 1s a man of good (amily, and one of
large property, all of which hie has dissipated
at play. Hemurried Blanche Vane, she with
whom it was said by village gossivs you ouce
had an affucre de ceur 1a early life)”
*} don’t recollect her," said Melvil,
*‘Not recollect her ! satd Russcll, eagerly,
‘not recollect her? Why, Melvil, | could al
most feel tempted to say that the lack of mem
ory was intentional. Not recollect Blanche
Viapel—she whom we used to call ‘Beautiful
Blaoche?'”
Melvil colored slightly. A crowd of recol
lections pressed 1o his heart, but they passed
away with the mowment in which they were
engendercd; there was a little romance in his
own bosom,
‘I do remember that cognomen,’ he an
swered coldiy, as be turned away from the ta

Hall au hour elupsed ere Melvil again ap
proached. The gambler's face was flushed
with sutcess ; that of Russell was pale and
disturbed.
*One more throw for double stakes,’ cried
he, *and | have done.’
‘Agreed," replied Hawkes,

to the opposite ead of the table, and he watch.
ed. with eag'le eye, his every motion. They
threw, and Russeil lost. The scarlet blood
motuted on Melvil's brow ; he suddenly bent
forward, and violeutly seized the wrist of
Hawkes.
‘Contemptible scoundrel! you have dice in
’nu' .'QQ",..
Universal confusion followed, and groups
of persons flocked 10 the tuble. Wie

and ba ed his srm, calmly saying

I *You are wrong,” whispered Russe!; ‘von
' had betterupologize, hie 1s a capital shot.'
, ‘I was not wrong, and | will not apologize,’
answered Melvil, quietly,
Ere the litter had lefi the voom, a meeting
had been arranged for the following morning,
by Ruseell and some triends of Hawkes.
Five persons met, early on u damp, misty,
gloomy looking morning, w Batiersea tields,
they were the duellists, their seconds and a
surgeon. Melvil was cooland collected.
‘Russel, of | tall, promise to give up for ever
your fearful pursoit.’
*Muy heaven avert such a calamity as your
being wounded cven !
i *Will you promise to me what [ have asked "
‘1 will do more; 1 will swear!" answered

| The ground was soon measured—the com

—and as previously arranged, both fired to

I hler fell,
‘God ! ejaculated Melvil, 1 have destroyed
him !
They rushed on o the fallen man, and while
his second raised and supported his head upon
his huee, the surgeon examined the wound.
It was io the left side.
‘Speak—speak ! exclaimed Melvil, tam I a
murderer 1
‘t'ly, fly with your best speed, gentlemen,’
said the surgeon; *the wouund is mortal; he
cannot hive many minutes.'
As the poisoned arrow of the Indian warrior
festers in the wound of his enemy, so did this
gentence enter into the very heart of Melvil,
and there fester and canker his hopes of future
havpiness. The dyving man heard the reply
with sassumed fornitude.
Jdeas well, he said faintly, *oay, it is just.'
“You, addressing Melvil, *you were right. but
hear my justification, such as itis. 1 have a
wife and children. 1 shall vever see them
moye
I love them hetier than mysell. A
run of - luek had lett me peoniless, and them

determined, should fortune desert me, that

means which | had vot so much as dicamed
of.
‘He is dving.' said the surgeon; ‘fly for
your lives, gentlemen !’
He who supported the head of Hawkes
lowered it gently to the grass, and disappear
ed=—neither of the others moved. The motion
of his head appeared 1o rouse the fast fading
recollection of the duellist=but his miod wan
dered.
‘Blinche, my wife—myv sweet heart—=an
other chance for thy sake! Throwethrow—
now give me the box. Down go the dice—
tray . deuce—ace—ihe game s up.’
A convulsive contraction of the limbs fol
lowed, then a shight shudder, and the gambler
'sslept the sleep which knows no waking.’
Russell and Melvil made a tour to Switzer
land together. Both melancholy—the former
for a season, the latter for ever.
THE BILL PAID.
Medical students may be proverbially “hard
cases,” for aught we know. Yet it cannot
be denied, that few are more benevolent and
hind hearted, than these same hard cases are,
It may be beciuse they witness so mach sul -
fering wnd distress, that they become accus.
tomed, as it were, to scenes from which at
first they turned away, unable to witness.
A few vears ago we happeued to bein the
company o' a number of students, from oue
of whom we heard the following story :
It was oo a cold Christmas morning, in the
vear 18—, a medical student, who 1 will ¢all
Rush Rudder, was proceeding on his way to
meet some (ellow students in the beautiful
hitle village of Richmond, where, forgetting
books and studies. they had wtended 1o spend
the auniversary of the day, which brougit
peace and good will to men. As he was jass
g through one of these nirrow stresis in
the northern part of the city, he met a small
girl, weeping, as if her heart would bLreak.
The erowd passed on without noticing her ;
but whnen the poor student saw her, his heart
was touched, and he could not pass without
iquiring the cause of her grief.
COh sir she wnswered Lim, it is vot for
mysell I eare, but mother is so sick, and she
sent me to the talor for whom she works, but
he would not pay me.”
“Where does your mother live 1 he asked,
after he had listened to her plain story. The
hitde girl led him into a smali house, where
lay a sick wowan luboning under great debil
iy, and rapidly sinking for waut of proper
pourishment,
Ever acd anon could be heard the langh of
passers by, clad 1 furs and well protected
from the keen blasts of Boreas, as they joined
in the merry makiog of (he testive day—and
the sick woman would sigh as their meny
laugh fell upon her ears. Jt may be, her
mind reverted to her happier days. Such
thoughts will ofien steal upon the distressed,
however much they guard (hemselves against
them.
1 will get you some medicine, which 1
hope will do you good,” said the student.
“But,"—="No matter about that,"” said he,
koowing full well what she was about to say
“No watier, you can pay e when you get
money enough to spare,” aud without waiting
to hear any objections on her part, he wished
her a good day, promising to call soon again.
So much time had elapsed while the student
was thus engaged, that it was too late for him
to meet his friends, as at starting inthe morne
ing he had intended.
Every morning a supply of food and medi
cine was sent to the poor woman, who, unler
proper nourishment, rapidly improved unul
couvalescent ; aud everv duy did the studeut
wend his way to his patient to inquire how
she did.
The commencement of the University took
place, and Ru<h Rudderreceived his diploma
with honor. Thime rolled on, and Mr., now
Rush Rudder, M. D., was attending to the
arduons duties of his profession, in his native
city, Cineionati, when one fine morning, sev
eral vears alter he had left the University, a
splendid coach drove up to his door, and a
beautiful female entered his office. The
voung physician lifted his eyes from the books
he had been reading, and fincied he had seen
that face before, but when, or how, or where,
he knew not.
“I bave come, sir," said she, *“to pay you
for medicive received from you long, long
agn."" B
“wWhen did you receive the medicinesl”
asked the Doctor in a busioess manner, (but
It was 4 counterfeit,)
“Oun a cold Chrisimas morning, in the year
18—, you met a poor girl cryving, in the city
of Philadelphia, you spoke kindly 1o her. fol
lowed her to her sick mother, and purchased
food and medicine until she recovered, I'hat
poor sick womun was the only doughter of a
wealthy gentleman, but marrying contrary to
her father’s wish, he banished her from his
house. Her hushand soon dicd, and she was
forced to support hersell and child by her
needle, but unused to labor, days and nights
of toil were too muceh for her, and she sank
bewueath the task; and had it notbeen for you,
she must have died, and her daughter been
exposed to the chotities of o cold, heartless
world; yea, to all the temptations to which
helploss females are subjeet in our large cities.
Her tather died shortly after her recovery,
without a will, consequently she fell heir to
all lnsvast estate. Kind sir, that woman was
my mother, sud 1 am the livie girl you spoke
so kindly to.”
L The rest of my story is soon told. They

The above was a fair trind, and wag tous a convineing

destroyed by the same heat in less than (wo hours, We
