it is expected there will be another outbreak

SUGGESTED "THE DEATH OF THE YEAR.
l sit beside the dying bed of one
Whose love has been solace sweet, to mo,
From childhood up; and sadness deep,
Comes DER me, like dream, which, if | would
cannot we'll escape. My thoughts revert
To sunny days and visions bright, to hopes
Which shed halo once around my path
And made me love to think of long-long life.
These hopes--I will not tell them now-are dead
Man should not ask such earthly happiness.
Yet, when think upon those halcyon days.
Those days ofboyant gladness, there will steal
Over my spirit sad loneliness.
1t brings before me forms of light and love,
Which long have slumbered in the voceIess tomb;
1t wakes remembrances, which l would fain
Never recall, unless 10 wean my heart
More fully from the earth-this fair, false earth
But bark the clock strikes twelve, Another year
Times particle, is numbered with the flown
And what report, think you my soul, does it,
A rich and precious dowery, heaven born,
Garry to Him who gave it thee
Tells it of well spent days, of hours improved,
OF minutes treasured up, and parted with
As mlsers part with gold? Tells it of vows,
Made whom thou askedst this bright gift, per-
formed
Tells it of victory in the name of Him,
The owly One, Who died for thee? OF lovo
Fervent and deep, surprising earthly love,
For HIM thy early choice' Think, o my soul!
Has memory kept no record of the past
OF promises forgotten, duties known,
And yet neglected, -slothfully perchance,
Or worse-through servile fear of suffering that
Thy blessed Master bore-scorn and contempt?
All conscience, ever faithful TO her trust,
Points to all these, and whispers in my ear
OF death eternal death
Oh thou who oft
In sorrow and in Joy. hast heard nv prayer
Now hear me!
AS /, migrate, have loved the world thus far,
And fondly clung to folly: till it pierced
And slew the last, false hope,-so do now
Renounco it all yes, all! and give myself,
Soul body, spirit, all have, to Thee
And solemnIy l'vow, that life nor death,
Or anguish deep, or aught beneath the sky
Shall tear me from thy cross!

MIRIAM POWER.

We extract the following beautiful and atfec-
ting Tale from little work just published by
James Munroe and Company, entitled Sketch
es ola New England Village in the last cen
tury":-
In her native village there were two orphans,
who on the death of their parents, depended
on the bounty of some distant relatives. The ell
dest Girl was several years older than her broth
er, poor sicky boy, who relied solely on his
sister for those necessary attentions that seemed
ofen' TO preserve his life. They had eaten for
many wears, the bitter bread of dependence, when
the prosecuting spirit, in the form of the witch
craft deusion, awoke in the land This young
girl, now about eighteen, was distinguished by
remarkable maturity of character, and also ny
perfection of form and feature, MS rare as 1t was
beautiful. 1t is we'll known that the victims OF
this deusion were selected among those who
were distinguished by rare gifts of mind or per-
son. and even the persons most eminent ior piety
and excellence Of character were most h<ely TO
become accused Of intercourse with the Author
of Evil.
Tradition, said our grandmother, represented
Miriam Power as queenly in her person, OF most
winning sweetness in countenance anu man
ner although mingled with sadness and reverse.
This sadness was attributed 10 the early loss OF
her parents, g. to the anxiety q care winch mad
fallen upon her at that early age IN the Protec,,
ton of her unfortunate brother. He was afflicted
with that fearful malady, epilepsy. 1t is now
well known that although a physical disease, it
will yield to mild remedies and moral treatment
She had, in this way, or by the natural ascendan-
cy which strong mind exercises over weak
one, attained perfect control of her idiot broth
er. She had watched him so long, and become
so accustomed to the care, that although she
could not iorsee and prevent the paroXysm OF
the maady, yet as soon consciousness began
TO return, by fixing her eye mildly on his, and
taking him in her arms sine could Immediately
sooth him to quiet and sleep.
AS usual in such cases, every one was ready
with advice, and there was as many remedies
offered as there were persons 10 prescribe
but Miriam had learnt from experience that hel
own treatment was the best and refused all herbs
nostrilms and charms.
Among the most earnest was an old Indian
squow, who had long been the doctress of the
village, who entreated Miriam, to make use OF a
woodchuck baked aIire and then reduced to pow
der taken in small doses every day. The crue
prescription was rejected with horror, and the
poor girl went quietly on in her own way.
Soon after the accusation for witchcraft began
