M a t 21 , 1864 C H I L D H O O D . WittU'H Morning conies, and tips tho eyelids Of the children—Willie’s, too; God hath borne them past the darkness, Watching them the long night through. And, when kneeling by his bedside, Willie says his simple prayer. Thanking for thp blessed sunshine, Aud his heavenly Father’s care, I can almost see a trembling Pass along the golden ray From the window. Are the augels Hov’ring there to hear him pray ? Such a gladness in his smiling, Such a sweetness in his tone, As he grasps the welcome morning Like a plaything all his own. Soon, while yet the sun is early, Willie at his task I see, Bending down his head so curly O’er the book upon his knee. And I hear bim spelling, mumbling— “ M o—mo, t i o n — tion Longer words, too, without grumbling, Eye and B lin d in close attention Till, his lessons all conned over, Ting-a-liug! the breakfast-bell. Breakfast over, he calls Rover, Vexing pussy by the well. Half-past eight—“Ah ! good-bye, mother— I must start for school this minute.” Takes up one book, then another, And the box with luncheon in it. Off he starts, with joyous whistle, And, in haste the wood to pass, Shakes the dew from wayside thistle, Starts the cricket from the grass— For tbe wood is his temptation, And he must not linger now, So he runs in desperation, While the nuts drop from the bongh. Just in time! The bell is ringing— Willie’s hat is on the nail— ■Willie, in his place, is singing With the children, “ Hail! all hitil 1” ’Tis a simple morning anthem, And they shoot it with a will; While the birds, without, would taunt them That their song is blither still. Lessons said without an error, Willie romps in glee at noon ; School-time has for him no terror, Play-time never comes too soon. After school the nuts are gathered— Ah ! ye squirrels, scamper now ! Those that fail are for the children— You must get them from the bough. Home again : “ Here, Susy, take them, Or my pocket soon will burst: Some for you and some for mother— Only take her share the first. “ Here's some moss for sister Mary, And a puff-ball just for you. Ah I don’t break it—think I ’d carry Puff-balls home to break in two ? “ How! yon naughty little creature, I must have a kiss for that!” And while Willie’s chasing Susy, Rover’s chasing Willie's hat. So with Susy and with Rover Gaily rnsh tbe moment’s on ; * Supper—working in the garden— “ Good-night a ll!”—the day is done. Once again the sweet thanksgiving And tbe earnest prayer are said, Ere, by loving arms encircled, Willie sleeps upon his bed. M. E. D. The L ittle Bridegroom. BY SOPHIE MAY. Once there was a poor little boy in great distress of mind, crying as if his tender heart of twelve years old would break. Children often have cause to weep: troubles are as plenty as three-leaved clover. But here was a rich boy, a healthy boy—not an orphan, either—living with kind parents in a beauti ful home. No doubt your sympathies are ready to be drawn out, just as soon as you know what is the matter. Don’t laugh, then, when I say he was going to be m a r r ied I , “ A boy, twelve years old ?” You can hardly believe it. This is something quite out of the range of your experience. But he wa3 a prince, and with the glory of royalty there are terrible drawbacks. I have often thought I would never consent to wear a crown : it is said to give the head an “ uneasy” feeling. Still, if I were driven to such a fate,l should hope to reign over a larger frac tion of the world than one of those petty Ger man States. The boy we are pitying was the young Prince de Nassau Saabruk, and the wedding, about which be was crying before hand, was to take place in France, the home of the royal bride. The Princess Maximiliane de Montbarry was handsome enough, or history would certainly have told U3 ; but she bad the misfortune at tbis time to be eighteen years old—quite stricken in years! Now if it had been his lit tle playmate, Louise de Dietrich, perhaps the prince would not have spoiled his eyes; but it was more tban he could bear—to think of go ing to France to be laughed at by the whole world ! For even in those old times—this was almost a hundred years ago—the wedding was considered quite a curiosity. It wa3 to take place in order to confer a new title upon the little prince, who already had as many titles as he wanted, without knowing what they meant, and would have vastly preferred a set of new playthings. But, you see, even royal Children cannot always have their own way. Tbis all seems to me so droll, that I like to fancy how the poor little fellow scolded in German, and then, because he could not cry always, grew sulky at times, and wished he had his tears back again. I never heard how tbe princess behaved upon the occasion; but it is said that the prince ran away from her, and treated her with all the rudeness of an iil-bred child. A great many versos were composed by drawing-room poets in honor of the bri dal pair; nnd there were congratulations without number. The father of the bride groom gave brilliant fCtes in a castle of his lown, in France. Everything was done in a magnificent manner. All the neighboring courts were invited to hunts, feasts, and promenades, which lasted for three days. It was a favorable occasion for the French and German people of fashion to display their rich apparel and elegant manners; but the afflicted little hero of the day was far from joining in tho festivities. During thc ball, it was expected that he would dance with the princess; but no; he was at once too heart broken and too obstinate This refusal was contrary to all rules of etiquette, and we hear that the child was at length “ threatened with a whipping in case of refusal, and promised a deluge of sugar plums and all sorts of sweetmeats, if he com plied ; whereupon he consented to lead her through a minuet.” I should like to see a picture of that royal dance! After the unwilling partner had been drag ged through the figures, he was very glad to go and sit down in peace, beside a_ child of bis own age, Louise de Dietrich. No doubt she pitied him sincerely, and wondered n3 much as he did, why his papa should insist upon his doing such disagreeable things. Everybody was greatly amused, and one benevolent gentleman tried to divert the un happy bridegroom, by showing him some pic tures; but, unfortunately, among these was one which represented a wedding procession ; and when the child saw it, he shut the book at once, crying out in a petulant tone : “ Take it away, sir—take it away; it is too horrible! The wedding ! What have I to do with that ? It is shocking ! And hold,” con tinued he, pointing out a tall figure in the group, “ there is one that is like Mademoiselle de Montbarry!” The fair princess could not help knowing that she made this poor little bdy very un happy ; but I dare say his grief was soon over, for after this singular wedding, the bride re turned to her father—an ancient war-minister, now Prince of the Holy Roman Empire—with several additional titles, which meant about as much, probably, as the flourishes we make in writing our names. She went away to live with ber parents, and was to trouble the little bridegroom no more till he should be of age. To a boy of twelve, a period of nine years seems a short life-time : so, no doubt, he let the future take care of itself, and returned to his studies and plays with as much interest as ever. We will hope, at any rate, that his young life was not forever “ blasted ” by such a brief agony as the marriage ceremony. But, after all this lapse of years, it makes no great difference whether he was happy or not. He is an old, old man now, or has passed out of the world; and to him it is a matter of much greater consequence whether he did what was rig h t, than whether he was a great prince, with all the titles there are in the dic tionary. Facts and Fancies. To stroll from Broadway into the National Academy of Design, is to retire from every day life into the serene regions of poetry and beauty. These pictures are not merely so many feet of canvas touched witb tender or brilliant hues, but invitations to come up into the higher chambers of being, and commune with lofty thoughts and poetic feelings. Such, at least, is the effect of many a gem now on exhibition. There are plenty of mas sive frames containing the stereotyped “ gen tleman” or “ lady” .of the portrait painter, clad in the sheen of satin or best broadcloth in the latest style, who are as conventional as the last couple you met upon the street. One or two look as though they had loved, suffered, hoped, and feared; such are too sacred for criticism, and we turn to the landscapes to see how they have been studied and under stood. One thing noticeable is the mannerism of some of our most feeling artists. Who has seen Gifford’s glowing pictures year after year, and does not wonder if that artist never hap pened to look upon a sunset that was not tinged with those strong colors in which he so delights ? or if McEntee lives only in these soft November days that are so elegant in their subdued tenderness? Is there no one soul large enough to take in all tbe forms of beauty, or must each see only ' and translate one expression of universal love- j liness ? However this is, we will not quarrel, I for Gifford has here two of the very best pic- j tures he ha3 ever offered to the public. His “Twilight among the Adirondacks” is in formed with the melting glow of a warm sum mer evening: a spirit of sacred peace and loveliness broods over the scene, and you feel the harmony of the tints like those of perfect chords of music. His “ Catskill Mountains” is only a little beautiful. McEntee, too, gives what no other American painter does: “ The wailing winds, and naked woods, and mea dows brown and sere,” with ail the pathetic genius of a true poet. His “ Woods and Fields in Autumn” can hardly be surpassed. Hennessy has also a couple of charming little pieces. A mother bending over the cradle of her sleeping child in a humble room, is full of sweet, unobtrusive sentiment, and “ The Day is Done,” repeats in another form the pensive feeling in which he is so rich. Passing by some crude coloring, by several artists, we come to Whittridge, who has studied to some purpose in the quiet woods; his trees are real trees; you recognize the different kinds of foliage, and the sunshine is sifted through upon those fallen leaves just as it did in those old forests where “ we, with our lost childhood, played.” We now come to a remarkable work by I. Hope, “ The Cedar Swamp.” Here there is real love for Nature; there is no sham, no distortion; her own sweet self is mirrored as purely and faithfully as shadows in still wa ter. The very moss, the ferns, the weeds aro instinct with vegetable life, and though hung in a bad light, it is a work from which a faith ful observer will turn with a sigh tbat there are not more such. Hi3 Bivouac near the Cbiekahominy,” also, is the copy of a sketch taken on the spot, and the faces of the Gen erals, who are grouped under the noble old beach, are real portraits. His works will be appreciated one day as they deserve. But we pause only before the wonderful little gems of Frhro before leaving, to-day. Grateful are we to see a growing love for the fine arts among our people, and tbat the expositors of our scenery promise to be worthy of their no ble work. TUE ANNIVERSARIES.

On Wednesday evening this vast hall was filled by listeners to the*speeches from the able men who pioneer this department of reform. The President, Mr. Garrison, introduced, first, that great expositor of English Aboli tionism, Mr. Thompson. This gentleman ex hibits the effects of age and bodily weakness externally, but none of the inner fire is paled, and the spirit triumphs bravely still. He told us, in a clear, pointed, striking manner—at times rising into real eloquence— of the state of feeling in his own country in regard to our present conflict. There were two strongly marked classes, he said, even in the same family, though generally the aris tocracy favored’ the South, while the great middle class kept them in check, and prevent ed their giving material aid to the Confed eracy. He gave several extracts from the Tim e s and its imitators, showing the greatest ignorance and misrepresentation of ourselves and our cause. But those newspapers, he continued, did not represent the great mass of English people, who act as ballast to the ship of state. After drawing graphic pictures of Brough am, Roebuck, and Bright, he went on to tell of the patience and firmness of the poor opera tives, thrown out of employment by the want of cotton, yet who had steadily refused to petition Parliament to assist the South and raise the blockade, wliereby the means of their livelihood could be obtained. It was touching to hear him describe their pinched faces, gaunt frames, and insufficient clplhing ; and of their submitting to the suf fering rather than be untrue to their princi ples ; and those who heard his story will feel drawn nearer than ever to the true English heart. His speech was followed by one from Wen dell Phillips, whose scathing irony and with ering sarcasm, polished as his inimitable oja- tory, fell in thunderbolt after thunderbolt upon the lukewarm or upon traitors. In referring to our foreign relations, he declared that,‘of the three groat powers of Europe—France, Austria, and Russia—the latter alone was friendly to the interests of Freedom ; that England was only a second-rate power was proven by the fact of her summary dismissal of Garibaldi, at the nod of Napoleon, after having cordially invited his visit. He spoke earnestly,of our momentous future, even should the war end at once ; of our taxes, which would eat into the very life of the in the highest terms of his success in their cases. We called at his room3 in the St. James Hotel yesterday, and received an introduction to a highly intelligent lady—Miss Abbie Dorn- bergh, a resident of Caledonia, in this State— who has been under his care for a few days. She informed us that, eighteen months ago, she was given up by the best physicians in this State and Ohio, as a victim to that fell destroyer, Consumption. As a last hope, she determined to consult Dr. Bryant, and was carried to his office for that purpose. He gave her no encouragement, but said he would endeavor to relieve her. She now is able to walk a reasonable distance without fatigue, and converses easily. Is not such a case as this worth a ream of published certificates ? Were we at liberty to do so, we might men tion numerous cures of well-known citizens, equally as remarkable as tbe one named. Dr. Bryafit has a large collection of crutches and canes, thrown aside by his relieved and overjoyed patients, which speak more elo quently than words, of the merit and success of his system. To the poor he is generous, to the wealthy, reasonable, and to all he affords re lief, and to many cures. We can hardly say more in his favor. Publications. Gems of Inspiration! T H E AND M ISS A.
