Some time afterwards, he descended
Mount Achild. and ventured by night. into
The camp of Saul to deprive him, while a.

TO retire, when his foot be, anne entanpled
IN the legs of the faithful Abner, who slep,
beside Siul. Great was the embarrassment
Of David, how he should disengage his foot
from the hold of Abner without awakening
this valiant servant and to find himself thus
surprised thus alone in The camp of the en-.

Dav!d's anxiety was at height, when fly
blt Abner on the ieg,snd the pain which the
warrior fell, made him make a mo cement of
which David availed himself, TO Withdraw his
foot; he then fled quickly thanking God that
he had created flies.
Saul, however. pursued him. into lie

THE LOST CHILD.
BY LYDIA JANE PERSON.


Ia forest thick and wild,
With tmid eye and footstep, s,rayed
A poor bewildered child.
Along the cold swamp's weedy edge
He held his devious way.
Where cooled and kissing in the sedge,
The hldeous serpent lay.
The demon wolf with cry of death
Leaped past him in The chase,
The wild deer fingered in his path
10 scan the stranger face.
And pale, and full of agony,
That little face appeared;
And terror filled his soft blue eye
At every sound he heard.
His yellow curls were bare and wet,
His little coat was tern,
And stains Of blood were on his feet,
BY reckless travel worn.
His little heart was SEX with fear,
His brain was wild and weak,
And hunger's pains, so hard to bear,
Had banched his rosy cheek.
And still by every messy spot,
Where pheasant berries hide,
He sought-and when he found them not,
Oil bitterly he cried.
Four days, that tangled forest through
He sought his home in vain,
Fond hearts were breaking there, he knew,
To see his face again.
Mother! oh, motherl was his cry,
Until his voice grew weak,
And throat, and, tongue all parched and dry,
And then he could not speak.
The silent shades are gathering now
With dark and dewy wings,
Forming in dell, ana vale, lew,
Dim shades of fearful things.
His frame with curding horror shook.
His heart grew cold as clay,
He crept into a shclier'd nook,
Crouched down and tried to pray.
And then he thought that God was near,
To watch bove his bed;
And every agonizng fear,
And phantom horror fed
The pangs of hunger died away,
And grief withdrew its sting,
And sumber DER his spirit lay
Soft as an angels wing.
And then he dreamed sweet dreams of home
With all its love, and bliss,
The rural least, the lighted room,
The mother tender kiss
The little face grew calm and white,
His sumber still and Deep
Swee; boy, thy sorrows end o-night,
Thou wilt not wake TO weep.
Mother-he WHISPERED languidly,
And Rugged the dewy sod
IT'S done-he wakes TO ecstasy,
And sees, the face Of God!
Tell us, We white haired wanderers,
In LIES dark desert ways,
Ye who have sowed your path with tears
So many weary days:
Ought we to mourn for him who lies
La that wild dell alone;
Whose weary ieet and weeping eyes

GOING TO LAW.
An upper and lower mill,
Fell out about their water;
To war they went-that is, 10 law
Resolved to give no quarter.
A lawyer was by each engaged,
And holly they commended:
When fees grew slack the war they waged.
They judged we've better ended.
The heavy costs remaining still,
Were settled without bother
One lawyer took the upper mill.
The lower mill the other.
THE WIND.
The wind is a bachelor.
Merry and free;
He roves at his PLEASURE
Ger land and Ger sea:
He ruffles the lake,
And he kissed the flower,
And he sleeps when ne lists
In jes nine bower,
He gives 10 the cheek
OF the maiden its bloom,
He tastes her warm kisses,
Enjoys their perfume,
But, ruant like oftea
The sweet that he sips
Are lavshed next moment
On lovelier lips.

CONVICTION AND SENTENCE OF GREEN FoR
ITHE MURDER OF HIS WIFE. The trial OF
Henry G.. Green, at Troy, New York, for

ter their marriage, which has been in pro
gress for more than week, terminated
on Saturday afternoon, the 18Th ult., IN a
verdict Of guilty, and his immediate sen
tence to be executed on the 10Th Of Sep

OF Judge Parker, prelacing Unemployment
of death, will be read with deep interes,
After speaking Of the uaanmlty of the
jury in finding hlm guilty, and the justice
of their verdict, he said
"You stand condemned as guilty Of ha
wing murdered your wife. Your case, r
all It's aspects, exceeds in enormity any o
which | have ever heard. 1t will no
doubt stand out on the page Of history as
he most criminal, awful case Of murder
that ever came before court aud Jury.
You murdered her deliberately You
murdered the woman whom you had
sworn bur one short week, may say but
four days before, TO cherish through life
The woman whose destiny mad been pla.
'ced IN your keeping, in less Than one
week after marriage you deliberately poi
soned. You pursued your design day and
night, repeating the d 'adly potion from
time to time until she expIred-and thus
added TO the crime of murder, the black
crime Of perjury, for you violated the
most solemn vow taken at the altar.
"Was it ever knoA that SO intere ling
and unhoIy a relation as that Of man and
wife has been followed thus soon by re.
suit so shocking and painful TO all the
feelings Of our nature? Now the law
pronounces your sentence. You are to

or rather just as you are entering on life,
where you had rich and powerful friends
to aid you-where you might have been
respected, bat from which you are to be

MEMORY. Whatever has once given US
pain or pleasure is remembered long, and
REQUIRED to often, as we pass down the
journey of life TO the grey hairs and soil
tudes Of our last years. Love has been
II every one a source of both. Every
one has treasured away in the sacred pa
ges OF memory thousand little incidents,
ever to be revealed in time, to which, as
to some fascinating fiction, it returns.
whenever IA gloomy or an Idle, unsoca
hour, calls up the muslng spirit-and
turns the mind upon the past. Life, re-
viewed through the msts uf by-goRe
years, seems rather a curious wrought
fiction, or a ieverish dream, than stern
reality. We are surrounded by memen-
los of the affection of our friends, but
these friends themselves are gone. We
remember the councils Of wisdom, the
sage instructions Of experience. by which
oar minds were formed, and direction
given 10 the current Of our thoughts and
habits, but the lips from whence they flow
ed have long been mute as the still valley
where they lie Wondering. We have
danced and sung with the gay and giddy,
and been enrapturel al the thrilling voice
and kindsng eye Of beauty, but we are
alone. The visions have passed from US.
In ono grave-y yard and another there are
little hilIocks, and white stones bearing
rememLerrd names, and this is all all
that is left to US. But it is among the
ruins of the past that we gath
er the richest stores Tor The future II is
there we lean how very vain are earthly
hopes show fleeing earthly Grends--how
ffail even The strongest chords Of affec
ton. Ills there we learn 10 prepare for
another state Of being.

The Bitter B1TTEN.-A few years ago, a
farmer. who was noted for his waggery,
stopped at tavern, which he was in the
habit of stopping at on his way from Il
to Salem. >
The lanilady had got the pot boiling
for dinner, and the cat was washing her
face in The corner. The traveller, think
ing II wou d be pretty good joke, took of
the pot lid, and while the ,landiady was alb.
sent, put grimmaIkn in 10 the pot with
the potatoes, and then pursued his iour-
ney TO Salem.
The amazement of the landIay NAV
well be conceived, when, on taking up her
dinner, she discovered the unpaIilable ad-
dlIlon which was made on sit.--Knowng
well the disposition Of her customer, she
had no difficulty in fixing on the aggres-
sor, she determined 10 be revenged. A.
ware that he had to stop on his return
home Tor cold bite, the cat was carefully
dressed. The wag called, as was expect.
ed, and pussy was put on the. table
amongst other cold dishes. but so DISCUS.
ed that he did not know his old acquaiat-
ance.
He made a hearty meal, and washed it
down with glass Of gin. After paying
his bill he asked the andlady if she had
a cat she could give him, for he was pla-
gued almost 10 death with mice She
said she could not, for she had lost hers.
What" said be, "don't know where
,he isY'
"Oh, yes" replied the landlady," you
rave just eat it!''
