around the board of luxury, there are those a
round you who are starving! Think, ye gay
and happy, that as the merry laugh goes round,
and your hearts are bounding with Joy, there
are dwellings where arc signs and tears Instead,
and hearts crushed in the bitterness-the cruel
bitterness of want! And as you lie down in
your warm and comfortable beds at night,
think of those who have net blanket to cover
them-who watch through the long, cold, dark
hours in sorrow and gloom; and as you bend
the knee in prayer, remember these. And you
proud, wealthy man, as you sit in your office
| or counting-room, think of those you might
make happy, and you, tender and delicate wo-
man, as you tread the soft, rich carpet, or re-
cline upon the sumptuous Ottoman, think of
those who have no resting place but the cold,
hard foor And let the happy mother think
of those mothers who have no bread to put in
their childrens Notwithstanding with which
to guard them against the piercing colds of
winter.
And o! remember that these are Gods crea
tures--like ourSelues-with hearts that can feel
as deeply as yours, and bodies that suffer
keenly-to whom joy and hope and happiness
are as sweet az they are to you
They have blood in their veins, aye, pure thine
But nought 10 quicken its flow
They have limbs that feel the whisng gale,
And shrink from the driving snow"
Oh! how much misery is there of which the
thoughtless world Knows nothing-how many
a weak, old man is suffering-how many lone
widowed mother is in agony-how many n
little child is pning with hunger and shiver-
ing with cold, who pass all unheeded, save by
Him who never forgets the meanest of his
creatures. Truly has it been SAID, "miserablc,
indeed, is the lot Of the poor-a weary, strug-
ling, selt-denying life, and then solitary
death and an unblessed grave"
PEEP AT BROADWAY. All who have ever

! The CASE OF JUDGE GARLANU-IEs Call
Rendered Probabis--Hs .2!cmptcd Suicide We
stated yesterday that The Hon, Rice Garland,
one OF the Judges Of the Supreme Court of
Louisiana, had been charged with a serious
crime. We learn from the Picayune that
preliminary examination of the case took place
on the 10Th inst, which left no doubt that he
was guilty of forgery. The Picayune says:
Indeed, it was in testimony, that a s,tc for
$4,000 was drawn over the signature of John
McDonougil--a signature subscribed TO q COM
plimentary letter which he sent TO the Judge,
accompanying a present of Strawberries or
some other trlhing gtt-the writing above the
:, signature having been extracted by some chemi-
cal process. When the authenticity of the
note was disputed, Mr.. Smith called upon
Judge Garland and informed him Of the fact
After some words, the Judge. protesting that
the note was genuine one, refunded large
portion Of the money, and accompanied friend
of Mr.. Smiths to MIR McDonough's home to
have the matter explained. Mr. McDonough
testified that when he met Judge Garland he
was haggsrd and pale as death. He implored
him to save hun and his family from utter de-
structlon. MIR. Med. stated that he was over
come by the supplications Of the Judge, and
gave his note for the balance of the money OBJ
tanned from the sale of the first note.
About the time the court commenced its ses-
sion, Judge Garland attempted to commit sui
eide by jumping off the steamboat Sultan into
the river. lie was rescued by Capt. Wilson,
of the steamer +. Nj. Streck, before drowning,
and, after second time endeavoring to take
his own life, was carried home in q state of
great exhaustion. A more terrible rctribution
never yet overlook an offender against the la VS.
of the land. Himself high priest of the law,
he has fallen under its dreadful demonstrations
A writ was issued for his arrest on the fol-
lowing day, but he had disappeared and could
not be found in the city.
