Jemmy, darlint—Fm sor ry you can’t 6ce it with yourW n eyes, but its the same, honey, where mammy used to go Sundays.” “ Dodo see it, Dodo see it!” said Jemmy, de* jghted at her speaking more cheerfully, for he had become infected witli urn sadness of the sister. “ And there’s dear father’s grave)" said the little girl, “ we'll go and sit beside it.” They crept through a gap in the wall, and Dora sat down by the rude cross, and leaned her head upon it. Jemmy stood near her with his hand upon her head. 11Dodo’s hot,” said lie. “ Yes, darlint, Fm burning with the heat.” She took the bread which she had saved, and put it in Jemmy’s hands. “ Eat it Jemmy, its good."* The little boy was pleased with the treat, and sitting down on a stone which Dora had placed for him, he began to eat. . Dora's fever fit passed away, and for .a moment she felt a cold chill creeping over her, then- her head became dizzy, everything around seemed in motion, and she sunk down upon the damp grass; poor wearied nature was exhausted, and tne little girl lay prostrate on her father’s grave «in a deadly swoon. CHAPTER VIL “ T H E G O O D H U E S T .” ‘ When Jemmv had finished eating his bread, he ut out his hand towards the Bpot where Dora had een sitting. , lie felt the wooden cross, but the soft brown hair oil which his hand loved to rest, was not there. He groped around until he found the prostrate form, and passing his hand over her face, he perceived, by the sense of touch, that the eyelids were closed. “ Dodo sleep,"lie whispered to himself, and, feeling the little sfiawl which had fallen down, he very gently spread it over her, and sat down again on the stone, scarcely moving at all, lest he should disturb her slumber. Some hours passed; the sun had come out, and dried up the moisture on the grass; little Jemmy felt the warm sunbeams, and put out his hands to catch them. Soon he became weary, for the light and warmth went away, and he knew it was darker and colder, lie bent down to Dora’s ear. “ Wake up, sissy— Jemmy, tired.” ■ There wa» no answer, and he touched his lips to her cheek. “ Dodo, Dodo, wake up— Jemmy"cbld and tirei?' Tne cheek he- touched was icy cold. He took her hand to put around his own neck, as she was wont to do do. It fell lifeless by her side. A strange fear seized the little fellow, and he cried a loud, bitter cry. Alnsl there came no answer, save the cawing of the twittering rooks, on the little quaint tower of the old church, and the whis per of the evening breeze among the branches of the ve,w trees, in the yard. Again the child knelt down, and raising his sister's head in his little arms, he said, in a plaintive voice, .. ■ Please, sissy, wake up—Jemmy tired.” Just then, the churchyard gate creaked QJV Ir* E feffiSjfto H m m b w & W m ' a Tghted‘’L tern came out of the church. Jemmy heard the foot steps approaching, and with another earnest cry, he pressed his cheek to his sister’s. “ Please, Dodo, wake.” The man heard the voice, and holding his lan tern aloft, came forward in the direction of the sound. It was Father Doherty. As his' light fell on the children, he at once rpcognized Dora. “ How came you here, little ones P” The voice was kind and gentle, and Jemmy, a little reassured, said, • “ Sissy ’sleep; please wake sissy ?” The good priest bent over the little girl. He felt her pulse, placed his ear to lier mouth, and then laid his hand on her heart “ Poor child!” he said, “ I wish I had come here two hours ago. Little boy, can-you carry the lan tern ? I will take sissy up.” “,Me no see lantern. Jemmy no 6ee at all.” “ Merciful God!” exclaimed the priest, as he came nearer and examined the child. “ Take hold of my gown, Jemmy, while I carry Dora,” he said. Then placing the lantern on a high tombstone, vhe bore the little girl towards the 6nurch, the door of which stood open. He..laid her gently on a cushion, and procured a little wine which he forced into her mouth, and this, with the aid of friction, soon caused the sufferer to open her eyes, but she only gazed wildly around her a moment, and closed them again. The priest continued his exertions, little Jemmy, itf~the meanwhile, standing by, still grasping tightly the good man’s gown. . ' Again Dora opened her eyes, and this time she said, in a low voice, as if she had hardly breath-to articulate, “ Jemmy.” The little boy laid his hand in hers;; a pleasant smile passed over Dora’s face, and again her eyes closed, while her hand still grasped that of her little brother. — — Tne priest’s house was near; and as soon as Dora ]had revived sufficiently to understand where she wac, Father Doherty tore her in his arms, and ; laid.her on his own bed, Jemmy keeping his hold npon,his dress, but keeping very quiet, as the good priest told him it would .make sissy sick u he ' ried. , . . . . . . .It jvas not until Dora’s head was laid upon the pillow, and Jemmy had dropped asleep, with his hand in hers, that the priest thought o f his errand to the chwcnyard, and then came the puzzling question—What shall I do with these children P His housekeeper lay a corpse in the next room, and it was to select a spot for her grave, and’to see the old sexton «who lived on the oppositeiside of the chune^yard, that he had gone out that even ing.

They were already burdened with church rates and taxes, and now that, sickness was in their midst, the struggle to obtain food enough to support life Was very nard. He gave some simple remedies to Dora, and then sat down in his big oak chair to collect his scattered thoughts. •• ’ “ Yes,” he stud to himself, “ the hospital will be best for them, and' a word from me will ensure kindness to the patient.

Of my spirit’s subse quent trials I will not now speak. They arc past; and you know with what feelings I left my village home, and went with my uncle to Oxford, the city of his residence. It was shortly after my arrival that a hope was held out to me— one that never had entered into m y dreams of the future— that of a cure o f my lameness; nnd for this purpose, I was laced under the care of eminently skilful surgeons, could never express to you the almost, wild joy, the fullness of gratitude that filled nil my soul, as I felt myself, week after week, growing stronger and freer— when at last without even a cane to assist my steps, I walked forth into the world. Life seemed a fresh gift, a new and untried power; and hopes and aspirations that I had crushed into silenco, rose again with renewed strength. “ I was successful in my university studies. My uncle hnd assured me more than once that the wealth Lavished so freely on me now would one day be m ine; and, with all my new joys, Helen, there stole into my heart 'visions of love and of you. ! thought of your stately father', 'with his pride of birth and station, w d my cheek glowed with th? consciousness that 1 could now offer lilm a name which could rank with his own, and that there was wealth at my command for its support “ But such thoughts entered not into my dreams o f you. There came many shadowing fears.. Young and Ijgnutiful as you Were, might not your heart long ere this .have been given to some noble one among the many.who would seek your hand? And, a h ! even were you free, could I hope, that because I loved you so passionately, I should-be. loved in return ? But yet I cherished the blessed thought in the radianco which had been let in upon my heart; its freed fountains were leaping and sparkling, nnd’ I let them have their way. _ “ My uncle was going to Brighton on a short visit, and I accepted-his kind invitation to accom pany him. It was the day after our arrival, that I ■was-sitflrig at the window o f tho hotel, looking out upon the busy throng in the King’s Hoad. 1 wns thinking of you, joying to know that we breathed the same air, that ere night I Bhould stand in your presence. I heard attention called to a lady who nad just alighted from a carriage close b y .' I look ed with the rest Helen, it was you 1 And, oh 1 how beautiful you were! You lingered for a mo ment on the steps, all unconscious of the admiring eyes that were bent upon you. ‘ Who is she?’ were the eager inquiries all about me. There was an answer:— 1The oeautiful Miss Grahame; and she is engaged to Colonel Harrington!’ “ The, words rang on my BenseB like the rushing o f water in' the ears o f a drowning man. I felt faint and dizzy, and I put up my hand to clear the mist that seemed gathering before my eyes. B ut by a strong effort, 1 overmastered the rush o f feel ing, and rallied m y strength to wait for one more ghmpse ofthft face, which I then thouglftpl should look upon for the 'last time. At this instant two gentlemen came up the street, and stopped as they saw the waiting carriage. One was your father; the other, I heard it spoken, was Colonel Harring ton. They lingered there for your reappearance; and at length you came forth. Colonel Harrington handed you to your carriage; both entered after you— the door w a r shut—*and you drove awiay. Ah, Helen, the darkness that my heart knew at that moment 1 AH its radiance vanished, all its rushing tides driven back to their source I M y uncle wondered at my listlessness, at the sadness I could not at all conceal; while I longed only to be onco more nt home, -once more immersed in those studies which I never again would leave, those studies which must now wholly engross me. “.And thus have glided by the past eighteen months. Early in this spring, I was ordained, and came as curate to this place; and, in the society of its refined people, and amid the arduous yet pleas ant duties o f their pastor, I have known as nju6h o f happiness os was possible for me to enjoy. " Before vour arrival, I had heard o f the failure o f the rich Mr. Grahame; and my heart had been awakened to a sympathy for you, though the mis fortune could not fall heavily on you— a bride— as I now suppose you to be. How I heard o f your nrrivalin this village, you know. When I heard also that you were Miss Grabame-without a thought I yielded to my first impulse, and hastened to your side I “ Oh, Helen! will you love meP— will you ac cept the heart that has so long been only yours R— *■ will you be my wife, and share my home P You have said your life was to bo devoted to your father; but Helen, would he not bo m y father also our home his home P I shall not deprive him of a daughter, but will be to him a son, on whose strong arm he may lean for support; and it shall be my ioy to assist you to make nis*life happy.

The projeot o f ereoting a monument to the mem ory o f John Howard Payne, in one o f the oemteries in our vicinity, which-has been revived by a leading journal, is'one thi^t'deserves^attention, and :we trust that it will meet with moro success than usually is accorded to things of this kind. Payne was one of the earliest of those American writers who won reputation, as well abroad os at home, in the , early days of the country, and when it was hardly thought a possible thing for an American to excel in letters. He was an associate of .Brorhelm Brown, the earliest, and perhaps the ablest, of Amerioan novelist^, an d: had. been known- nearly half a century ago, when Bryant was a boy, and Irving a young man, and long ere Cooper had been heard of. His plays, of various kinds, were all productions of more than common merit, in an age that was remarkable for its dramatists. They yet keep possession o f the stage, and are seen with pleasure. His poetry is of a high order, and one o f his songs will be as lasting as the language to whioh it belongs, even should all else that he wrete pass away. Yet he wa^ but ill rewarded,, and had the usual familiarity of genius with the res anguitiee d mi. The least we can do for him, now that he is dust, is to build him a monument. It would be the old story— to give a stone where we have denied bread. . . . ’ Whether the monument will be. built,'or will be only one o f the jnany things that take rank with castles in the air,whosha]l say? The monumental dodge is one that we Americans are mighty fond gf, but we are not so . fond pf paying for the actual monuments, in whioh respect we are exactly, like the rest o f :the fctttqan raoe; : There ia hardly A man 'or'arf^e’W'titrJn our history; t<Tbr'lbr'%Moh, we have not vote? ft' monument, but the number of such monuments that exist out o f the resolutions vot ing them is, comparatively speaking small.— Some wag has calculated that it would take all the marble and granite in the country, to build the monuments that we have voted to build, and that it would be' a. serious evil i f we were to keep our plighted faith to the illustrious dead. This is an exaggeration, but it is an exaggeration only o f the truth, and hits off one o f our weak nesses.' In moments o f exaltation, and when our minds are impressed with a high sense o f the importance o f certain deeds, and o f the merits bf those jvho performed them, we are very apt to declare that they shall be rewarded In that fashion to which na tions ordinarily have' resort, when wishing to ex press their gratitude.' Monuments then rise, in our mind’s eye, to the skies, and' no thought is given to their cost. Yet as our minds cool down, the monuments come down. We begin to econo mise, and finally march to the conclusion, that the conclusion that tho most fitting monument for a great man, or a great deed, is 11the historib page,” where land is cheap, and where san indefinite num ber o f pantheons, temples, columns, and so forth, can be placed, without the disbursement of a penny. After all, we ask ourselves, what it a monument but a mass of stone, a little differently arranged from, what it would have been if the monument had never been built? I s 'it any thing beyond a pieco o f ostentation made visible ? And then we philoso phize—or think we: do, which is practically tho same thing—about the builders o f the pyramids, and other gentlemen who sought to make them selves immortal by their doings in the monumental way, and succeeded only in affording a great deal o f material for a great deal o f work for thoso portentoud b b fts ,i^ e ‘ift tl^ liH a W /^ o ’ we end^very complacently, b y doing tyothing, and save our monoy. Occasionally we do build a monument, by way of variety, but it is quite as muoh time’s doing as ours, and is accomplished only after an indefinite amount 6f squabbling, and a very largo display of Bhabbincss. Those who lay the corner-stone, do not. always live to see the .column crowned. Bunker, Hill Monument may tako rank with our best puhllo works o f tho kind, but between the beginning of the work on It and tho completion thereof, bbirly twenty years passed away.

Boston Theatbb.—Miss Avonh Jones succeeded Matilda Heron, making her first' appearance before a Boston 'audience as Parthenia.- Although there were occasional glimpses o f talent in her perform ance o f the oharacter, yet we could see little to en title her to the position she assumes. We have too many so called 11 B tars” already, and i f Miss Jones would ever reach eminence in tbe profession she has chosen, she must be content to fall back to the lower walks of the drama, and' become a patient,. diligent student. After ycarp of toil, she may suc ceed to the throne now filled only by those who have attained it through the same means. ' While speaking o f the performance o f Ingomar, we oannot refrain from asking why Mr. Belton should assume such a character as Ingomar? The gentleman must be aware that he renders himself simply ridioulous to the audience in suqh assump-' tions. We have witnessod many attempts at trag edy, by noviceB and others, but can recollect noth ing so laughably absurd,-as tho last performance of .Ingomar.' We trust t h a t 'if Mr. Belton is to remain' in the company- another season a position more adapted'to his abilities will be assigned him.-' We hear a rumor that George Pauncefort, is to hold the position vacated by Mr. Belton.

The common idea is that there is something so severe in science that it raises its votaries above the ordinary influences 'of humanity, and that they live in a pure and elevated moral atmosphere to which base thoughts can never penetrate. But this idea.how pleasing soever in itself, is without any good fount dation. Not only ha^fecientifio men quarrelled even diabolically,among themselves, but they have very.often led the way in. those attacks on others whioh originated :in a desire to prevent the progress of soience.

Thought is aotton of another kind, and action bo called, is, in every rational being, nay, striotly in everything, .the expression of thought. The first proposition, that thought is action, seems more doubted in faot, and by implication, than in ex press form, for the act that never finds a physical expression, ip without evidenoe to testify its exist ence. ’ Everything is approaohable, but by mediation of its kind. Pure revery, and wordless aspiration, unuttered reason, and disembodied feeling, ;can find no conscious reception in the senses, till .they are themselves organized, with sensuous forms. The dreamer then, the philosopher of ideas rather than things, the .poet and the enthusiast, floating in soft atmospheres'of inexpressible thought, are to the eyes o f sensible men, mere good-for-noughts, idlers that drink God’s sunshine without so muoh as wafting bloom-sweetness on the desert.air. . But the-poet knows, and tho lover knows, that the dream-world is a world of- life, too, and mute thought works, and the world o f men is wiser for even the unuttered wisdom o f the-thinker, is bet ter for the deep wordless love that moves the pulses of the legalist. The nerve-telegraph between soul and sense, is but dimly understood, even i n , the in timate relation whioh they hear in our‘ bodily liveaf still less has it been appreciated as a sub-marine communication across the gulf of death, whe^o for the great mass o f lives here, its existenoe has rare ly been suspeoted.

I have a mother and three sisters .on earth. I have got one sister, who, when I left these parts, lived in Charlestown, and her name'was Baker. She mar ried a man by that name. He had plenty o f money, and owned the vessel I sailed in, I wasn’ t captain — hadn’t got to that then. The last I heard of my mother and two sisters, they lived in Dorohoster.

I had two'small'sisters—one named Sarah, and the other Sophronia. My folks are all Universalists; my mother belongs to that ohuroh, so did my father. Well, they are on pretty safe ground; but they do not see as they ought to — they are better off than some of the people. My name is Alfred A. Whittemore.
