That day comes not. One victory Bah! That is an accident. The Mexicans are a very brave people,—the bravest in the world.

The insult the Americans have given to Mexico Ali be revenged. Iler honor has been compromised before the world. Very well, it will be made bright." . And in the meantime,Maria,wehave - taken from them the .city they love best of all. An hour ago I saw General Cos, with eleven hundred *Mexican soldiers, pass before a little band of less than two hundred Americans and lay down - their arms. Their banners had been anointed with holy oil and holy water. ' They had alt received absolution every day before the fight began: they had been promised a free passage through purgatory, and a triumphant entryt into .heaven.' : - • "Well, I will tell you something; Fray Ignatius showed .it to me—it was a paper printed. - The rebels; and their wives and their Children are to be sent from this earth—you may know where. they will all go, Roberto—Congress ears so. The States will give their treas- ure,. The archbishop will give the Episcopal ' treasures. The convents will give their gems and gold orna- ments. Ten thousand men had left f6r San Antonia, and ten thousand more are to follow; the whole under our; great President Santa Anna. Oh, yes! The rebels in Washington are to be punish- ed also. It is well known that they • - sent soldiers to Nacogdoches. [Mexicans are not blind molds, and they have their intelligence, you know. All theStates - who have ' helped these outrageous in- grates are to be devastated, and you will see that famous Washington will be - turned into a heap of stones. I have seen these wordsin print, Roberto. I assure you, that it not just a *little breath—what one or another says—it is the printed orders of tilt' Mexican gov- ernment That is something these Americans will have to pay attention The doctor sighed, and answered the - sorrowful, credulous woman with a kiss. What Was the ffse of reasoning with sim- plicity so ignorant and So confident! He tnrned the conversation to a subject that always roused her best and kind' est feelings—her son Jack. "1 have just seen young - Devrees, Maria. He and Jack left San Felipe - together. Dewees brought Instr.:talons to General Burleson; and Jack carried others to Fannin, at Goliad." ; She took her t husband'shands and kissed them.. "That indeed! Oh, Ro- berto 1 If I could only see Jack once more I have hid a constant accu- sation to hear about him. Till I kiss my boy again, the world will be all dark before my face. If Our Lady will grant me this miraculous favor, I will always - afterwards be exceedingly religious. I will give all my desires to the other world." You'll Find it Always Pays.

She has been very wickedly used by him; and, I fear - he intends to do her evil."

For she had also seen him coming, and had gone to meet him, with -a little rainbow -tinted `shawl over her head.. She looked so piquant and so happy. She seemed such a proper mate for the handsome youth at her side that -6 word of dissent was not possible. The doctor said only, "She is so like you, Marie. I reme:nber when you were still more lovely, and when from your balcony you made me with a smile the happiest man in the World." Such words were never lost ones; for the Senora had a true and great love for her husband.

Three Rules for -having a Good Pansy was asked to a party the other • day, .and wat.quite undecided whether to accept the invitation or stay at lnim 1 happened to know that the lady w b was to give the party was a very. kind and lovable woman, and a Charming hostess. Young people always enjoyed themselves in her house; besides, she had been a school mate of Pansy's Mother, and it Was hardly courteous for Pansy to slight her invitation unless she had very good reason. Yotrsee, children, your aunt MArjorie is ratgir old fashioned, and she thinks that when people are good enough to want you, you should, as a rule, gratify them if you can-. tried to iscertain the : reason of Pansy's hesitation. She frankly told Me that, in the 'first place, she was afraid her dress was too plain; in the second place, the was very shy and tim- id in. company,and always felt as though everybody was _gazing at .her; and in the third place, most of the guests' would be strangers to her,,and she did not like nieeting -strangers. Three reasons : •No.1, dress_too plain; No, 2, ally in company, ; No. 3, dislike •to strangers. Pansy is not the only.girl whose good times are - spoiled by Just such absurd reasons is ,the above three. • Now let me give her and all of you my three rules. • N�.1. Never mind .your dress. A simple,tquiet dress is in the best taste for a young girl. The granddaughters of Queen Victoria are always very mod- estly and plainly dressed, and it is quite evident that they bestow very little tlibught upon their gowns and hats: which are.what their beautiful, sensible mother thinks fib for them. A pair of bright eyes, hair in nioe order, and rosy cheeks, will 'set the simplest attire. - No. 2. Never mind your shyness. As soon is you have paid your respects to your lioitess, look around for somebody shyer than yourself, somebody who is not being pleasantly entertained, and take upon you the duty of making the hour pass delightfully for- that portion. You will fOrget all about your ownshy- neon. No( Don't feel like a stranger, and do not suffer other people.to seem te you like stringers. Wherever you go yon will find wonderfully attractive persons; and if you fare in the world as aunt Marjeriedoest you will always be find- ing new acquaintances who will be worth a great deal to you,—Christian Union., • Before,they caned him he bad caught something else, viz, -__a 'cold and fever that laid hint up for, severaldays; ond when he began to get well again they found that his right leg was cripiiied just its you see it now. • Then, tv, httle while after that—" - "Why he Must have as -many lives as Pooh 1 all that is nothing' at all to what's coming. . A little while_ after that, as 1 was saying), he Was sent into the country with his nurse, an odd sort of creature, who must, I should think, have been more than half 'crazy.

What • db you think he did just the other day? I had been making a call at his father's house, and when I got up to go he came to me and said,. "I've got a present to give you, ' Mr. Mitchell; but You must remember that gifts are to be estimated, not, according to their intrinsic . value, but according, to the intention of the donor." "Fine big words for a boy of, that d th • A. Boy ;Became Famous. A CLEVER CRIPPLE. • • About a hundred years ago a large party of guests :(including several of the most famous men of that day) were assembled in the drawing room of a fine. house in the most fashionable quarter' of Edinburgh. By their frequent glances at the door they seemed to be expeoting some one whom they specially wished to see; and the one who looked most eager of all, although he never spoke word, was a boy who was sitting in the corner all by himselt. At first sight you would have noticed nothing very remarkable about him ex- cept that his face was paler and thinner than it should have been, and. that he appeared te be lame of one foot. But when you came to look closer you would have been struck with his high massive forehead and clear bright eyes, which 'showed that whatever he might lack in rausele WaS more than made up in brains. "11 that sickly looking boy with the lame foot the young prodigy of whom you were telling me last night, Mit- chell V' asked a handsome and rather dandified youngfellow, turning to an older and greyer man beside him. "The very same; and he is a prodigy if ever there was one yet. I really be- lieve he knows by heart every ballad that has ever been written, and he writes ballads himself too. But the most wonderful thing about him, to my mind, is that he should be alive at all." "Indeed. What do you mean ?" " Why, I mean that, young as he is,' he has had almost as many narrow es- capes of losing his life as I have had of losing mine; and that's saying a good deal, as you know. First -and foremost, when he WM only a few months old he fell so ill, that the doctors despaired or saving him, and— . " Oh,• that's nothing unusual now - a -days,". interrupted the younger man, laughing. "-Why, I saw a -man myself, only last summer, who, when I met him was just completing his hundredth year, and he had been given up by the doaors before he had completed his third." "Well, this boy of ours surpassed. even that," said Mr. Mitchell, "-for he had another narrow escape before he completed his second. One night, when he ought to have been snug inbed, be slipped out of the house and-ran'away over the wet grass as hard as he could. size,"remar e e listener, aswell-as he could speak for laughing. ." The last book he learned by heart must have been Dr. Johnson's Dictionary, for: the , old Doctor himself couldn't hale beaten . that last sentence." . i„ ' - _ "And what do you suppose the gift turned out to be after all this flourish l" continued his friend: ""Why,.. an old copy of Adam's Grammar, with quill cover half off, and a lot of dews, horses, [ wild beasts, and what, net, ..drawn in pencil Upon every page ! I have: it in; my writing desk now, done up in Vic)** paper. • - • " And:do you mean to preserve it as a relic of the donor ?" , . "Indeed I do," answered Mt-. Mit- chell, gravely,:- "-for . I'm very - much mistaken if that little cripple does not make such a name Biome day that that gift of his will be well worth baying." / But just at that miiment their talk ;was suddenly interrupted:" There *as a loud knock at the -front door, a bustle was heard in the hall below, and then.a firm, heavy step. slowly --ascended the stair. ,-iThedoor flew open,- and into the - room strode a big, sun -burned,.. large boned man, with great flashing. eyes, while a liveried servant announced-- " lar; Robert Burns." _A buzz of suppressed acitenient an a general movement among the assem- bled company greeted the entrance of the famous- poet who was already Cele- brated not only througheut •Bdinbergh,t but through the Whole length ; and . breadth of Scotland. Amid* the tunii venal bustle no one noticed the -crippled boy, who with a sudden- flush. on hi thin facie, was devouring with his deep, earnest - eyes every ; movement of hi chosen hero. . Later in the evening:the lady of the house . begged Burns to write Some verses in her album Ile was jest about to do so, whena short poem on the text page caught his eye, it was - a simPie little piece, describing a soldier lying id the snow Of a battle -field; hutthe great poet read it with evident interest.. •• " Wha wrote yon poem ?" askedhe, in his deep, strong voice. * - - , But the lady could only. tell him that it had been copied for her out of a boo. of extracts; and all the rest, when they looked at it, were equally at a -Joss: just then the littleoripple called citt,t r ' .
