Wild heights. thought she, do these crea-

her kids BY the easiest path, for on even

Over head frowned the front of the preci-
pice. never touched before by human foot.
No one had ever dreamt of sealing il, and
the Golden Eagles knew that well, in their
instinct, as, before they built their eyre,
they had brushed it with their wings. But
all the rest OF this part OF the mountain side,
though Scared and scanned, and Ghasmed,
was yet accessble--and more than one per-
son in the parish had reached the bottom
of the Glead's Clif.-Many were now at
tcmpang it--and ere this cautious mother
had followed her dumb guides hundred
yards, among dangers that, although e.
nough to terrifylthe stoutest heart, were ira
versed by her without a shudder, the head
of one man appeared, and then the head of
another, and she knew that God had deliy-
cred her and her child in safety, to the care
of their fellow creatures, Not word was
spoken--eyes said enough; she hushed her
friends with her hands; and with uplitted
eyes pointed to the guides sent her BY hea-
ven. Small green plots, where those crea-
lures mbble the wild flowers, became now
more frequent-trodden lines, almost ca
sy as sheep paths, showed that the dam had
not led her young into danger; and now that
the brush dwindled away into strag-
Cling shrubs, and the party stood on an en-
jnence above the stream, and forming part
of the stroth.


There had been some trouble and agita-
tion, much sobbing, and many tears, among
the multitude, while the mother was sealing
the cliffs-suhline was the shout that echo
ed afar the moment she reached the eyrie
then succeeded silence as deep as death
---n little while arose that hymning pray
er,succeeded by mute aPplcatlon--the wild
ness of thankful and congratuiatory Joy had
next its swav; and nov. that her salvation
was sure, the great crowd rustled like
wind swept wood. And for whose sake was
