"LITTLE BY LITTLE.
"Little by little," the torrent said,
As it swept along in its narrow bed,
Chafing in wrath. a,nd, pride, .
"Little by little, and dor, by day,"
And with every wave it bore awayl .
A grain of sand, from the banks which lay
Like granite walk °neither side. ,
It came again, and the rushing tide ,
Covered the valley far and wide, 1:
For themighty banks were gone- a,
‘Little by little, and day by
A grain at a time, they were swept away, '
And. now the fields and meadows lay
Unaer the waves, for the work was done.
"Ltittle by little," the tempter said,
As a dark and 'cunning snare he spread
For the young unwary feet --
"Little by little, and day by day,
I will tempt the careless s ul astray
Into the broad and flower way,
Until the ruin is made mnplete."
"Little by little," sure. and. slow,
We faishion aur futurei of bliss or woe,
-
As the present passes away.
Our feet are climbing -the stairway bright,
Up to the region of endless light, •
Or gliding downward into the night,
Little by .1ttle; and day by day."

As no time, however, was to be lost,

atter himself he commenced digging
ith such energy that. we had hardly
repare'd ourselves for work, before h
zicl cleared away nearly the whole o

"terval, though thunder was heard oc
asionally grumbling sullenly- in. the
istanee, as if 'expressing anger at om
nholy doings—at least 1 felt it so.
be pitcher darkness continued, so we
ould scarcely see one' another. We
orked on silenely, as fast as our spades
ould be got into the ground ; taking it
turns,. two, by two, as the grave.
ould not admit of ,more. On ----Lon on
e Worl-sed, till. we had hollowed out
boutthree feet of earth. Tip then
astily joined together a long iron screw
r 'borer, which he thurst into the
roued, for the purpose of ascerteining
he depth at which the. coffin yet lay
nom us. To our vexation, We foiled a
is -tame of three feet remained to be
,t through, "Sure and by the soul of
e Patrick, but we'll not be done by
le morning !". said Tip 48" he threw
own the instrument and resumed his
ade. We were all discouraged. Oh,
ow earnestiy ayished myself _at home,

ow I cursed the Quixotism that had

o time, liewever, for reflection, as; it

into the graVe *juniped, and worked
vay as lustily .as isefore. While I was

ought I should have dropped down

and, all four stood _still for a .-second,iior

few inches -around us, but: beard . the
grass- trodden by approaching feet ! They
proved to be those of 9n Ass, that:was
turned at • tight into the churchyard,
and liad gene on eating his ww tow-

in mute expectation' of what was to
come next, opened en uswith an as-

denly backward against the animal's
head, nd fell down. Away sprang
jackass inueli eonfounded as Tip,
kiekin and. Escarnpering like a ,mad
creaaur among the. tombstones, and
hee-ba ing incessantly, as if a hun-
dred -d villa had got9 into if for the pur-
pose of discomfiting us. I felt as much
fury,: nd fear lest the noise 'should
lead t our discovery, I could have
killed t , brute if it had been within
rea tie while Tip stammered, in an
affright ned whisper—" the-bilste ? Ocli,
the bas e! The big black- devil of a

baste? The murthereus, thundering"
an .1 a great many 6pitbets of the
sanie S rt.- - We gradually' recovered
from th agitation which this provoking
intereu ition had occasionede and Tip,
under he premise of two bottles of
whiSke as' soon as we arrived safe at
home ith our prize, renewed hss exer-
tions, nd thig with such exertions,
that we soon cleared away the remain-
der of he, superincembent earth, • and
stood pon the bare lid of the coffin.
The grapplers, with ropes attached to
them, ere then fixed in the sides and
we wer in theact of raising the coffin
when tl e sound of a bunion voice, ac-
eompan ed with footsteps, fell on our
stnatled eats. We heard both distinctly,
and cro idled down dose over the blink
of the grave, awaiting in breathless
snspens( a c(IpToboration of our fears.
After a pausel of two or three minutes,
howevei, findi.,g that the sounds were
not ren wed,. we began to breathe freer,
persuad d that our Oaj'S meat have de-
ceived us. Once more We resumed our
work, si 6-ceeded in heisting up the cof-
fin—tot without a slip, however, which
nearly )recipitated down again to the
bottom, with all fou of us upon it --
and der osiling it upon the grave -Side.
Before r roceeding to use our screws, or
wrench° ewe ence more lOolted and_lis-
tened, nd lisCened and looked, -but
neither Ilearieg ' nor seeing anything,
we set werk, pried off the lid in.ae
