atcs, in very touching verse, the opposite fate o.
wo early friends We agree with Field of the
ReueiIc, who says that the little tale has grea
moral: @ @ -eg 30
One took paper and his life
s-- Was happier than a kings;
His children all could read aud write,
And talk Of men and things.
The other took no paper, and
While strolling through the wood,
A tree fell down upon his crown,
And killed him-as it should.
Had he been reading OF the news,
At home, like neighbour JIM
I'll bet cent that accident
Would not have happened him.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT ATPLyMoUrH, Mas
sAcHUsErrs. On Saturday last, says the Bos
ton Courier, while a party were hunting deer
in Plymouth weeds, Mr.. Jerome burlington
was shot by Mr.. Augustus Holmes. Mr.. Pur-
rington was from Rhode Island, on a visit to
his father in Carver, and was one of the party.
Soon after they had taken their stations, Mr..
burlington, for soane unknown reason, left his
and was approaching that of Mr.. Holmes, who
hearing the rustng in the bushes, fired at the
first glimpse, with fatal effect. AS the gun was
discharging he perceived his mistake, ran to
Mr.. burlington, raised him up, and asked him
if he had killed him; he smiled, bowed his head
and died Immediately. He was about twenty
six years of age. MIR. Holiness distress is great
at this lamentabe occurrence, but those who are
acquainted with deer hunting, will absolve him
from all blame.

it was said he had been reading something in

oner, Thought the answer of witness involved
an important objection to the juSor His an
swer was based upon newspaper statements;
something more, he thought, than rumor-
more Influential at times than the evidedce in
the court of justice" Whereupon Judge Bell,
the President Judge, remarked: "Fublic opn-
ion appears to be reformed in that respect. A
statement of fact is now considered prma
