Young Wickliffe accordingly called upon the editor, and, avOwing himself the writer of Cosiolanls demanded the author ot Dentatus. Mr. Benfing re- quested him to remain in his office, and he woud 70 out and look for the author; he returned in short time, and told Mir.

Upon this, WicklifTe called him d--d ras- cal; BcnBing raised stick with the intention of striking hm; Wicklife wrested it out of his hand; Benning retreated, and while retreatng, Wieklife drew pistol from his bosom and shot him through the body. Before Benning's death, WickFe had been arrested, and held to bail in the sum of 4600O for shooting with intent to kill. Afer the death, war rant was issued against him for the crime ofnurder, but he had made his escape.

THE SUNDAY SCHOOL ANNIVERSARY.

THE long expected day at last arrived
Loud rang the bells their welcome peal; and came
Like ministering spirits, sent to call
The wayward thoughts of men from worldly cares,
Into the presence room of God-his Church.
Oh! what
A tide of rapture filed the hearts and eyes
of aged Christians, as they looked upon
Their numerous offspring more than children now,
United in the family of Christ
In their young days. there were no Sunday Schools:
Youth was to them the morn of truth revealed.
And O! how blessed seemed the thought, that as
On trembling limbs, they tread upon the grass,
That skirts the grave, their chidren's path
Is lit with brighter beams of knowledge, in
The things of God Thence the fervid prayer
That Faith and Grace may sanctfy their souls,
For equal grades in Heaven!
While such deep thoughts
Coursed through their parents hearts, the scholars led
Nv nchers grave, and meet for the blest work,
In rank and classes sought their proper seats.
The Church was crowded with these little ones
Some forms were missing which were wont 10 be
With them on former Anniversaries
And of the rest-how must they be gone
To that great Church, where endless Sabbaths reign.
Their cheerful looks beaning with joy subdued,
How like the lilies, planted by the course
Of some pure stream, whilst yet the heat dries not
The morning dew, OF hand of man pucks off
Their early buds, else; the stars, floating
Around the brow Of night, and soon to be
rmu,ersed in glory of the rising sum-
n not that, then, the dearest hope Of all
observe how carefully those children Keep
Their Bibes and their Books of Common Prayer
pledges, indeed, Of merit and Of lovei
But sealed passports to a better world
Il was faithful type Of Heaven nseit---
