FEELING.
Oh. have seen an Orphan child,
Meagre IN wantand woe;
Her look was downcast, pale and wild.
From every earthly good exiI'd,
She knew not where to 20.
Starving, and almost naked too,
She told her artleys tale,
And many sigh aud tear it drew
Oh who such wrctchedness could view
Nor soft compassion feel?
I've seen the widow'd mother flung
Helpless on charity;
Two infants on her bosom hung;
That bosom threefold anguish wrung,
To hear their piercing cry.
Trembling with winters chilling blast,
She clasp'd her helpless dears;
Then round their frames her mantle cast,
And died oh who such scenes have pass'd,
Nor melted into tears:
Pve seen, in bloom Of youth, a maid,
Depriv'd Of reasons ray;
Princess born. the fair one sad,
Her lover in the wars had bled,
Her friends were gone away.
She told her simple tale otwoe
With such melting air,
could but weep. All. who csgld know
scene like this, nor bid TO flow,
The sympathetic tear?
Thou who control'st the human kind.
The Orphans fate o'errule
Protection for the widow find
Restore the maniac to her mind,
Tn unfeeling to soul.
And mid thy blessings, Father, give,
To me, feeling heart;
The mourning sufferer to relieve,
The proud offender to forgive,
To act christians part.

In the court of common pleas Of York Cy.
case was decided the week before last,
which from the bearing it will have on many
similar cases that probably exist in this coun-
try, requires that it should be generally
known. Daniel Treicbler, when speculation
was at its acme, bought 72 acres Of land, for
which ne was to pay S2o6oe. For the pay
ment of this sum or the greater part, he gave
his bond 10 Jacob Bower, of whom the land
was bought. After being in possession OF the
land, Triechler gave judgments ON the pro-
perry.
Hence arose the suit, in which the holder
of the bonds on the orig inal purchase and
the judgment creditors of Triechler were
joined in issue. The property was sold by
the late sheriff for 1900 sum not much
more than one fifth the original coDsidera-
ton money. Aftera minute and laborious
