TEE little hindering thing. 
riTis not often given us to read a piece so unpretending, 
and yet withal so poetical, as the following touchingly 
beautiful lines. They were written by an English laborer, 
whose child was suddenly killed by the failing oi a u ! -'.i- 
Its premature death suggested the melancholy monocy. , 
Sweet, laughing child!—the cottage door 
Stands free and open now, 
But oh! its sunshine gilds no more 
The gladness of thy brow 1 
Thy merry step hath passed away! 
Tliy laughing sport is hushed for aye 1 
Tliy mother by the fireside sits, 
And listens for thy call; 
And slowly—slowly, as she knits, 
Her quiet tears down fall; 
Her little hindering thing is gone,— 
And undisturbed she may work on!

ceived; and if hers had failed, why might 
not those I had written to Julia have shared 
the same fate ? Still I cannot, will not 
doubt the constancy of my dear Julia. As 
for this traveling companion, he is probably 
some relative. Who knows but be may be 
my cousin-in-law. or unclo-in-law, or some 
other future relative. 
“ May 1 inquire, sir, if you are related to 
Esquire Ellmore’s family ?” was my next 
query. 
Related ! oh, no, sir, not at all; I am 
merely an acquaintance. I am expected 
there this evening; I promised Miss Ell- 
more I would come, without fail 7 ’ 
This answer only increased my agitation; 
but fearing lest I should betray my feelings, 
I leaned my head on my hands and feigned 
fatigue. The more I reflected on the sub¬ 
ject, the firmer hold did the “green-eyed 
monster ” gain over me. Still I determined 
I would not thus distrust my Julia. Per¬ 
haps, thought I, this fellow is only a vain, 
conceited coxcomb, and wishes to pass him¬ 
self off as an accepted lover. 
I raised my head, and assuming a jocular 
tone, asked my companion if ho thought 
Miss Ellmore really handsome.

WHO BORROWED MY UMBRELLA! 
I osce a bright, round dollar spent 
For an umbrella, which I lent, 
And thought the fellow really meant 
Back again to have it sent; 
For such, ho said, was his intent. 
And many an anxious hour I spent 
Waiting for that same event; 
But wind or weather did prevent, 
Or he his promise did repent, 
And oft in storm though, I out went, 
And plainly spoke my discontent; 
Vain, all in vain, was my lament— 
And so a fiery document, 
Rich in persuasive argument, 
Though very little blandishment, 
No doubt to his astonishment, 
Through the office, to him I sent. 
When back he wrote, that accident, 
My umbrella much had rent, 
And he hoped my heart, benevolent, 
Would not ask equivalent. 
Was every man so impudent ? 
Or brass so awful evident ?— 
But I could not the deed resent 
To fight, I was too corpulent, 
(Though not the least belli-potent,) 
And so myself I did content, 
In rhyme my anger to give rent. 
And though perhaps not eloquent, 
I’ve told my honest sentiment, 
That money’s very poorly spent 
Buying umbrellas to be lent.
