A DocToR OUTwIrTED-Dr. H. ]. was one of the
most able talented and eccentric surgeons of the last
century. His practice embraced large circle and
his fame extended to every part of the State, The
Doctor was one morning sitting in his Office, porting
some medical work fresh from the mother coun-
try, via Boston, when loud rap at the door aroused
him. Come in said the doctor, and an old lady
hobbled into the apartment, who seemed the very
embodiment of dirt and negligence.

The old crone proceeded to diyest her ''un

both hands in amazement, "what dirty FOOT"
la, doctor, We needn't be in such wonderment
about it; there's drer feet than that in the world;

As the brothers stood fervently but compos-
eddy, grasping each others hands, III the little
hollow that lay between the grave of their
mother, long since dead, and of their father,
whose shroud was haply not yet still from the
fall of dust to dust, the minister stood beside
them with pleasant countenance, and said
81 must fulfill the promise made to your faith
on his death bed. i must read 10 you few
words hishand wrote at time when his tongue
denied its Office. / must not say to you that
you did your duty to your old father, for did he
not often beseech you, apart from one another,
for your own sakes as Christians, for the sake
of the mother who bore you, and Stephen, who
died that you might be born? When the pal
sy struck him for the last time, you were both
absent-nor was it your fault that you were
not beside the old man when he died. As
long as sense continued with him here, did he
think of you and you two alone. Tears were
in his eyes; | saw them there; and on his cheek
too, when no breath came from his lips. But
of this no more. He died with this paper in
his hand, and he made me know that / was to
read it to you over his grave. now obey
him.
"My sons-if you will let my bones lie quiz
ct in the grave, near the dust of your mother,
depart not from my burial, till, in the name of
God and Christ, you promise to love one anoth-
er as you used to do. Dear boys, receive my
blessing.
Some turned their heads away to hide the
tears that needed not be hidden-and when the
brothers had released each other from a long
and sobbing embrace, many went up to them
and in a single word or two expressed their joy
at this perfect reconcilement. The brothers
themselves walked away from the church yard,
with the minister to the Manse. On the fol-
lowing Sabbath, they were seen sitting, with
their families, in the same pew, and it was OBJ
served they read out of the same bible, when
the minister gave out the text; and that they
sang toge .her; taking hold of the same psalm
book. The same psalm was sung, (given out
at their requst,) Of which one verse had been
repeated at their fathers grave; larger sum
than usual was on that Sabbath found on the
plate for the poor, for Love and Charity are
sisters. And ever after, both during the peace
and troubles ofths life, the hearts of the broth
ers were as one, and in nothing were they di.
vided.

pcrimenis in the Ohio Cnltiuator: a
He was about sowing his wheat, believing
tito be peFecfly..clean; but on being adyis-
ed concluded 10 brine and lime il fi,st When
the brine was. poured on, to his surprise he
found chess floating thickly on the surface,
and on being skinned off, about pint and
a half we're obtained from each bushol of
seed. This would thoroughly seed any
groundy but if the wheat grew well, the
chess would be kept small and hidden; where
winter.klled, il would spring up and spread
out, and occupy the whole ground, and be
attributed by superficial observers, 10 the
change Of the killed wheat to chess. The
wheat, however, was thoroughly killed by
brining, SO that where It was winter-klled or
fy-er,en, no chess appeared.

10 his house, bringing back the lady corpse.
IN explanation OF the tragedy, he told his
family that the sleigh upset, throwing his
wife violently against stunsp, and causing
her death upon the spot. He at once pro-
ceeded to make coffin with his own hands,
and with as little assistance as possible
placed the body in il. The funeral was con
Quoted with haste, and marked by an absence

body was disintcrred and submitted to a

that he had eorresponded with d young wo-
man, school teacher, for some time previ-
Gus 70 the death Of his unfortunate wife, and
il is rumored that the intimacy has partaken
ofa more criminal character than mere letter
