INTREPID CONDUCT or AN IDfoT.-Not
long since, rs some boys were amusing them
selves by angling, in that part Of the
Regents Canal, which faces Maida-hil,
Paddington, one of them, Ia fine lad about
IL years ofage,) son Of Mr.D. Arrovsmith.
of Paddington Green, in endeavorng to re-
cover bis fishing rod, which bad fallen from
his hand, overbalanced himself, and fell into
the water, which at this part is'nearly seven
feet deep: fortunately, a poor, half-witted
fellow who is well known.to the! e!lnhabitants
of the quarter by the nicknames Of" Billy
Badkegs,w who obtains n subsistence by
gathering bones and selling matches, was
passing mt the moment, and he, on perceiv-
ing the occurrence Of the accident, instantly
threw down his bag and matches, and with
out waiting to divest himself of even his hat,
plunged into the canal, and succeeded, after
a few moments, at the peril of his life, in
rcscuing the drowning boy from inevitable
destruction. This gallant action did not go
wholly unrcwarded, for n gentleman named
CIavasse, who resides in Lisson Grove, and
happened to be driving by ia his chasc,
generously gave the poor fellow II sovereign.
This so delighted the poor creature, who in
all probability had never been master Of SO
much money in the whole course Of
his life, that he seemed petrihed will,
astonishment for a few moments, and
then snatching up his bag and matches, he
started off in the Edgcwnrc road, with the
speed of a greyhound. Il is to be hoped
that the father of the lad will reward the
poor fellow as he deservcs.---Englishp paper.

THEY TELL ME SHE'S NO LONGER
FAIR.

They tell me she's no longer fair,
That time has swept aside
The lusire Of her youthful brow,
Her beauty's blooming pride
But If her heart is still the same,
Sill gentle as Of yore,
Then is she beautiful to me
More lovely than before.
They tell m, her cheek is pale
As is the twilight honr,
And that her eve has lost It's FIRE,
Her 81 nee its former power;
Bul f her soul is still as chasle
Sill gen leness is there
Thel is her eve to me still bright,
Her cheek 10 me sill fir.
For oh 'tis in the Shrined soul
That b.auiy purely dwells;
Where virtue lives and tru h exists
Ike pearls in ocean shells.
Give n; a fli.hfll, ftslin , heart,
Perfeclion'S richest prize,
That is the temple Of all love,
Where beauty never dies.
Then say not she's no longer fair,
That time has swept aside
The lastrs Of her youthful brow,
Her b1auty,s blooming pride
For if her heart is still the same,
Sill gentle as Of yore,
Then is she beautiful to me-
More lovely than before
