The Country Church-Yard. “Many '8 ago, an assembly of Chris- tians wors! in our church, and all were very old. The officers were white with age. The pastor had reached his eighty-pinith year—a venerable old father in Israel. The ground where he rests is watched always by guardian angels. We have not many like him in our congregation. * ears passed, and each in its flight could boast of having seen one or more of those good men gathered to his fathers. At length the great reaper bore away the shock of corn that stood ripest in Heaven’s harvest-field The good old preacher rested from his labors. The sexton soon followed, and was buried near the gate. He had longserved taithfully, safely passing one after another of his aged brethren into the house of death; and with the burial of the pastor his work accomplished and he laid himself down to sleep at the door. And now the old church was The last words of admonition ha 1 been given; the last song of praise had gone up to Heaven, and the last prayer had found acceptance at the mercy seat. Silent, all silent! “At the head of the grave-yard was buried tht pastor, as he was still watching his flock. Directly in front was the chorister; and in a semi-circle around him was the officers The remaining portion of the ground was ovcupied by graves corresponding with the form ob- served in the arrangement of the pews in the church. “The graveyard was adorned with a quiet beauty. Wiilows were bending around the place, and flowers blossomed on every grave A clear stream, from an unfailing spring, ran near the graves, gently murmuring; and pinke and violets bloomed in rich profusion along the path that led from gate to gate. There was & holy worship there. Choirs of birds sung praise, and every bud and blossom-alter daily sent up its morning incense. It was the rayer of the flowers, breathed silently io Hewren, and the answer came in the sunlight and the dew. “Well, there slept that congregation, year after year; and the tomb-stones began to lean forward like old men, and the inscriptions upon them grew dim, as eye-sight fails. The bier that stood near the gate had silen:iy rotted down upon the ground, and rank graes had entwined a shroud for its covering. ihe sexton’s spade was rusting beside his grave; the graveyard had itself grown old; but sti there sparkled the brook, emblem of the eter- nal stream. The flowers grew old and died in the fall, repeating the story of those who slept beneath them; ‘and they came forth in new beauty in the spring, silently speaking as they lifted their buds and blossoms toward Heaven, of a glorious resurrection. “The gravoyert was still growing old, and so was the church. All within was left a: when the last sermon was preached, for the g00d villagers feared to disturb the quiet of the old edifice. The bell was rusting in the tower; the pulpit leaned to one side, and ‘tottered to its fall;’ the pews were decaying. the cushions were rotting. Silently as the fall of autumn- leaves, the glory of the inner temple was de- parting. he Bible was upon the dusty pul- pit desk: that was undisturbed by Time. A record for Eternity, there was no decay among ‘its precious leaves. It was the soul of the old church; and like him who once taught from his sacred pages, it remained unimpaired amidst the ruin of the tabernacle. ‘Think of this silence for half a century! Fifty yedrs of dumb time! At merning— mid-day—evening ; spring, autumn, summer, winter; silent—all silent! “Treoollect it one still moonlight night, about the middle of June, many years ago; very late, when every stir and sound of moving life was quieted. The stiil moon bathed the old church tower and the grave-yard ina flood of dreamy light. Beautiful, very beau- tiful! A kind of solemn gladness reigned among the tombs. Every tiny grass blade had clad itself in a moon-beam, and stooi adorned withadiamond. The rays were busy in beautifying the grave-yard, and each flower slept with its closed leaves sealed with a dew drop, like a child slumbering with a tear just resting on the fringe of its eyelids. The stream, as it rippled along, was all of gleam- ing silver. One could plainly read the in- scriptions on the temb-stones, the night was eo bright. ‘How much of a Sabbath there is among the graves in astill monlight night! How calm—how holy!” The very spirit of solemn silence and re- pose seems to breathe over this scene, so graphically is it depicted. —_> Naro.eon THE TairD.—A writer in the London Economist sumsup a very able article on Napoleon III. as follows: “The same man who landed at Boulogne in 1840, with a single steamer and a few friends, ona desperate and abortive expedition, re- Visits it in 1854 to review a vast army and re- ceive the homage of countless spectators. The same man, who, six years ago, lived in obscu rity in London, scarcely able to pay his tailor’s and quite unable to pay his horse-dealer’s bill—whom many looked upon as stupid, and whom none looked upon as wise—of whom few augured well, and whom few wouid trust much—we have just seen receiving the visits and compliments of the consort of our Queen, entertaining three royal guests at his table— one of them the son in-law of the very mon- arch whom he had succeeded—and admitted beyond all denial into the social circle of royal personages. Nor is this change in his singular fortunes the only one, nor perhaps the greatest. We can imagine him smiling with even amore grim satisfaction as he con- trasts the language of the English press re- garding him in 1852 and now; sitting wich the ‘limes or the Examiner of December, 1851, or of August, 1854, before him—and marvelling atthe metamorpbosis—the unmeasured abuse which was showered upon him at the former date, and the decorous sal ge) and cordial praise with which he is spoken of n The ‘seedy swell’ and the ‘sanguinary abd auda- cious ruffian’ is now the polite and sagacious Emperor, and takes wine tete-a-tete with Prince Albert and Kitig Leopold.” The Cellar-dom of New York. Nothing strikes a stranger more vividly on his entrance into New York than the broad und startling contrasts.

They walk life’s sunny sede in “‘silver slippers.’” To many of them existence is as merry as @ mar- tr ee bell. ut let that stranger turn suddenly out of that magnificent street when he gets abreast of that tworld-known region of wretchedness, the “ Five-Points.”” The whole view changes in an instant!
