[From the French of Hypolite Andeval :]
THE WAY TO PARADISE.
A child stood weeping at the gate
Of La Pitie disconsolate,
Asking td see her mother dear.
‘‘Begone;’’ the brutal porter cried,
“loifr prayer is vain, she is not here.”
know site is,” the child replied,
“Oli, let me see her, 1 implore;”
And still stie rapped the fastened door,
Till one more kindly than the rest,
Said, ‘‘Cease thy tears, take niy advice,
And try to calm your troubled breast,
Your mother’s gone to Paradise.”
i
“To Paradise ! Oh, where’s the way ?”
She asked of every one she met ;
They listened kindly, and all say,
“The way is long, and sore beset
With obstacles.” But Hope leads on
And Piety supports her sinking heart;
Faith encourages—it shall be dime ;
And Charity fulfills her part;
And the child hopes once more to see
Her mother’s face, and with her be,
Resolved at any sacrifice
To find the way to Paradise.
At length, upon a barren soil,
Fatigue, and hunger, and the night
Arrest her in her weary toil :
A gentle shepherd sees her plight,
And to a convent near doth lead her ;
The sisters hasten forth to aid her.
But all too late! she pales and trembles :
Death, who parts and reassembles,
! To her mother soon unites her;
i Heaven opens, God invites her—
! Unstained, and pure from earthly vice :
! The sinless child’s in Paradise.
[From Thomas Noon Talfourd ]
Thu Theatre ani> its Influences.
—It is only in the theatre that any
ini a,ure of real grandeur of humanity—any
picture of generous heroism ami noble
self sacrifices—is pourcil on the imagina
tion, and sent warm to the hearts of the
vast body of the people. There are eyes,
familiar through months and years onlv
with mechanical toil, suffused with natu a'
tears. There are the deep fountains of
hearts long encrusted by narrow cares,
hurst open, and a holy light is sent in on
| the long sunken forms of the imagination.
which shone fair and goodly in boyhood by
| their own light, but have since been seal
i ed and fogotten in their “sunless trcasll
j ries.” There do the lowest and most ig
| norant catch their only glimpse of that
; poetic radiance which sheds its glory
| around our being. While they gaze,they
forget the petty c< ncorns of their
own individual lot, and recognize and re
joice in their kindred,with a nature capable
of high enterprise, of meek suffering, and
of defiance to the powers of agony and
the grave. They are eleved and softened,
into men.
They are carried beyond the ignorant
present time; feel the past and the fu'urc
on tho instant: and kindle as they gaze on
the massive realities of human virtue, or
on those trary visions which aie tho glea
ming foreshadows of of golden years
| which hereafter shall bless the world.
; Their horizon is suddenly extended from
l the narrow circle of low anxieties and
selfish joys, to the farthest boundaries of 1
1 our moral horizon ; and they perceive, in
clear vision, the rocks of defence for their
j nature, which their fellow men have
! been privileged to raise. While they feel
I that “which gives an v » of thing* above
them,” their souls are expanded in the
heartiest sympathy with the vast body
of their fellows.
A thousand hearts are swayed at once
by the same emotion, as the high grass of
the meadow yields as a single blade to the
breeze which sweeps over it. Distinctions
of fortune, rank, talent, age, all give way
to the warm tide of emotion, and every
class feels only as partakers in one primal
sympathy, “ made of one blood,” and
: equal to the sanctities of their being,
j Surely the art that produces an effect
I like this—which separates, as by divine
j alchemy, the artificial from the real in
l humanity—which supplies to the artisan
in the capital, the place of those woods,
I and free airs, and mountain streams, which
insensibly harmonize the peasant’s char
| actor—which gives tho poorest to feel the
old grandeur of tragedy, sweeping by
! with sceptered hall—which makes the
! heart of the child leap with strange jov.
j and enables the old man to fancy himself j
; again a child—is worthy of no mean
place among tho arts which refine our
i manners, by exalting our conceptions.
The Sham Family.
Mr.'Sham lives up town in n brown
stone front, with damask ami luce at the !
windows. He is a respectable man.nl-1
wavs courteous and ready to do you a
kindness, or to make an ingenious excuse
if he ernnot. Mr. Sham biros his coach
and horses by the year, atul bis handsome
coachman, too; but, if he spoke of them,
ho would tell you, in round terms, that
his establishment cost him a cool two
thousand; and he wouldn’t think of keep
ing so expensive an equipage, only Mrs.
Sham's health is delicate, and the little j
Shams cooped up as they are in the city, .
I need a daily drive out of town. Mr.
| Sham sports a dasing watch, with heavy
seal and chain, that look very much like
1 gold, owing to a singular custom of their
| owner who uses a certain white powder
] and a piece ofbuekskinon them every mor
ning; and nobody surmises that Mr. Sham
would wear anything but gold. That
worthy gentleman is constantly talking of
his family across the water, all of whom
are dukes and duchesses, lords and ladies.
1 and squires of high degree, lie is to come
into possession of a fabulous fortune when
i somebody dies, for whom lie Iras too sin- !
cere ;i respect to wish that consummation |
devoutly. Ho is going to buy such and .
such a country seat the next summer, it
business will "be kind enough just to slack j
a little; a very little, just long enough to j
let him run up to L. or 1)., to survey the j
premises and examine the deed.
Everything belonging to Mr. Sham is j
mortgaged, except bis wife and children, j
and so are they, to ari inexorable degree j
to Ultimate ruin'. Mr. Sham is a great |
boaster; in plain language, Mr. Sham is a ;
great liar; lie has lied so long, that the j
poor man never knows when he tells j
the truth himseif; indeed, has conscience
only troubles him when lie Is not invent- j
ing.
Mrs. Sham !—a magnificent person in
red velvet, and a grand match for her hus
band. Dine with Mrs. Sham. Hear her
regret that her head cook (a fabulous per
sonage) was unfortunately taken sick, and
is suffering up stairs with a headache.—
Notice her reprimand to Harriot Jane, the
eldest daughter, that she did not make ;
that stupid Biddy put on the best set of
silver. Hear her talk of the pleasure of
her last year’s travelling tour, when she
staid at home all the summer, shut up in
the back part of her house. Behind her
jewelry, paste and Irish diamonds; her
lace—nothing hut sham in the place of
the real. Listen to the stories she tells of
her childhood; if you did not know that
her mother was once an honest hard-wor
king washwoman you would be tempted
to believe that she had never taken a step
on the cold ground in her life before she
was married, and that in some way she
was related to Queen Victoria or to Louis
Napoleon.
The little Shams are epitomes of both
parents. They begin already to substi
tute the false for the real. to brag of
deeds they never performed; to talk of
families they never visited ; and to watch
each other closely, that there may be no
discrepancies. Poor,unhappy little Shams!
what a life they will lead! and if they
should happen to fall from even the scale
iu which they appear at present to be
snugly balanced, I fear they will find
apartments, in a strong bouse with iron
bars at the windows, and whose degrada
tion and discipline are anything but
shams.
[From the Boston Traveller.]
Forty-two years at Sea.
Captain Bowers, of the barque Mary
Broughton, new in port, has been forty
two years at sea, thirty-two of which he
has been captain, and during that long
period never experienced any serious dis
aster, nor ever noted a protest. A sailor
never left him in a foreign port; he never
sent a man to the hospital, never buried a
man at sea,nor ever had a law suit. These
facts speak volumes in his favor. They
show that he knows how to treat men,
and hence their devotion to him. We
know more than one captain who never
carry even their officers a whole voyage,
and who pride themselves upon being
considered “tartars.’
Although Captain Bowers never was in
a ship which touched the bottom, nor in
o le which lost a main spar, it must not
he supposed that he has never experien
ced the storms and hurricanes peculiar to
tlie sea. In the West Indies ho has seen
whole fleets of vessels driven upon the
keys and banks, and hundreds of lives
lost; and upon our coast lias suffered the
severe storms of many a winter; but, pro
tected by a kind Providence, lie says lie
lias been always able to bring his vessel
safely into port. This, by many, may be
considered good luck; hut in no situation
of life is good luck more nearly allied to
good management, than at sea.
('apt. Bowers says that under Providence
he has many times saved his vessels when
beset by storms, by having previously
arranged in his mind how to act. Pleas
ant weather is the season for thought—
storms and disasters the time for action.
in tieaitti uaptam Mowers lias Deen as
remarkable as in the success of bis voyages.
Ho never bad toothache, rheumatism,
headache nor fever. Last voyage, for !
the first time, be sustained personal dam- j
age. The spanker boom, in tacking ship,
struck him on the bead so severely that
be was unconscious for several days; but |
now lie is as healthy as ever, and bids fair i
to live bis “ three score and teu” and ten I
more, without troubling bis friends to take
care of him.
High as be ranks among the sons of the j
ocean, as a successful sailor, be is no less
esteemed ashore by those who know him '
best. A single incident will show the
man better than a yarn as long as the j
main top bowline. He was once censur- j
ed by one of the owners of a vessel, which
he commanded, because he positively re
fused to take a doubtful Custom House
oath. ‘* Why,” said the man of com- j
mcrec, “ tin y were only a pack of Span
iards 1” “ True,” replied the captain, “ hut
1 was not swearing to the Spaniards, hut
to God, and God, you know, is everywhere j
present, and is not a respecter of persons, i
1 could not swear to a thing that was not j
true."
(Japt. Bowers, still commands the
barque Mary Broughton, and will sail
hence in a few days for Buenos Ayres.—
May lie continue successful to, the end of
life’s chapter, and find comfortable quar- I
ters aloft wlfbu lie has slipped his earthly j
moorings.

cat remarked to the brickbat, when it ab
