the Overseer Of the Poor to assist him in liking

for public charity, we accompanied him 10 the
temporary abode of the unfortunate applicant
We found her helplessly i'll, under tho roof Of a
poor but benevolent relative. Her tale OF woe
simple but affecting. She had seen better
days, and had been twice married. Her hrst
husband died after wcdlock, leaving IN infant
daughter. who is now 7 or 8 wears old, and has
been adopted into the family offs uncle Her
second husband, named Rogcrs,after wasting what
little property she possessed, ed her to Long
Island, where falling to procure support, he lett
her, and went to Newark; at which latter place
she soon after, and by his request, joined him
Here the same poverty and want which had long
embttercd her conncxion with him, continued to
aff1ict herself and family; until she was finally
forced bv imperious necessity to seek subsistence
MISUNDERSTANDING, for this purpose. TO
revisit the home of her childhood, she worked

Canal us ia. Stanhope, where she procured n
conveyance 10 the house of one of her relati. cs
and afterwards reached her present location,
where she Immediately seized with the
pains Of labor, and cbortion cnsued.
Before reducing these details 10 writing. the
company were startled by the cry Of fire: and
on naSteOtng 10 the spot whence tpo niaIii' P'o-
ceeded, we behe!d little girl Of about four years
old, daughter of the sick sufferer within, cve!-
opcd in flames, her clothes having come m con-
tact with the fire in the door yard, kndcd for the
purpose Of boiling potatoes. The occupant Of
the house seize the child and immersed II INTO
a vessel Of water. Never did we see agony
more intense or hear cries more piercing. Every
part Of its body except where the waist baud and
shoulder straps tightly pressed the skin. was
dreadfully burned; yet the little victim retained
her senses and, finding herself IN the hands
Of strangers, ceased crying for a moment, and.
as if fearful of doing something wrong, said,
in a supplicatory voice which still wrings in our
ears, sOh, IN never do againr' No! poor In
noceni! thou wilt never 90 again! Far from
this vale of anguish and distressit had pleased
the father Of the fa,herless 10 summon thee; and
although in pain his mandate was executed,
not the less brightly will ihv interrupted spirit
shine amid the jewels that sparkle in his dia-
dem! A few hours more terminated the cx,s-
tence Of an afflicted infant. The agony of the
suffering parent language connot portray. May
the severity Of this last dispensation eficaciousy

SAD TALE OF REVENGE.

The Island Of Sardinia has recently been the
theatre of i romantic and tragical event, which
icarfully and fatal. dcveiopes the saEguinarv
character and consequences of a rendetfl. The
following is an extract of letter received from
that country -
s'The descendant of the ancient sovercigns of
the Island, Il Young man about twenty years OF
age the last scion of the iustrious house of Villa
IIcrmosa. had, it appears, conceived a passion
for a young Cir! of plebian extraction. tic had
for time continued his assiduiiies to her,
and rumor began to ascrbc to him better chances
of success, perhaps than he really possessed,
when one morning his servants brought him the
cloak of a fisherman. which had been found fixed
in the pannel Of his door by the blade Of piog-
nard The young nobleman understood the sig
nal: ii was a rendehd, of which fair warning was
thus given him, and his grandfather, with whom
he resided. prev allied him for some days not to
leave the house unattended. The young Count
of Villa Hermosa, however, was too brave and
proud long to submit to these fatgung precau-
fons. He declared his determination to go out
in the Same unrestrained manner as formerly,
and he did So AT night he met the rival who
had planted the poignard and mantle at the door
of MS hotel What passed between them is not
known. but it has been ascertained that the body
of the fishermen was carried by the Count to the
the beach and there concealed under heap of
stones.
The couu. now paid his addresses to the young
girl as freely before, to the astonlshnent OF
those who knew the history Of the Poignard, and
who fully expected some signal act ct vengeance.
Meanwhile. the family of the fisherman, who had
disappeared, entertaining some suspicious 0. the
truth. began to search for the body. /, was
found, and among the stones under which it was
concealed was also found seal-ring, on which
were engraved the arms Of the count. The ring
had probably slipped from his finger while he
was engaged in his deed of darkness. The body
was Immediately conveyed to the magistrate, &
the ring which had been found was produced.
An investigation commenced, and the proofs a.
oainst the count were strong. that he was
found guilty Of murder. and condemned to death.
The sentence was submitted to the King for con-
f;rmation Charles Albert was anxious, if posi-
bic. to save the last scion Of the royal race; and
accordingly caused a communication to be made
TO the grandfather, that if he applied for mercy It
would probably not be withheld. The answer Of
the old man was, that having to choose between
;ustice and his blood. he could not hesitate to
decide in favo, of the former; the young Count de
Villa Hermosa has since been beheaded.
