overbearing man. too, was not particular whether
ms stock broke mo other peoples fields or not
1Ivcrop was TOO small to feed my family and John
Champion ; hogs too so ] complained TO him
several times, but got no relief, when, being at

INN say that if foot or an ear, or even piece OF
bear skin was thrown down IN a place where hogs

which had killed some time before, and having

was seen Of them was at Bassets Creek, near for
~ miles from my house. only two being alive

yer abruptly Withdrew, leaving Renwick
with fearful foreboding of impending
ruin at his heart. II H
The fear that his villainy would be
unmaskod, his wealth torn from him, and
his marriage with Emily Williams pre-
vented, filled him with insupportable ag-
ony. He had all along been preyed up
on by guilty conscience. The wan
half-starved faces of the wife and child of
his benefactor. whom he had robbed and
beggared, had long haunted him with
startling terror, driving rest from his pill
low, and peace from his breast--5ut this
last deed of being convicted of forgery,
and perhaps doomed 10 a felon's term in
the State prison, was distracting.
He assumed as much fortitudc as he
could under the circumstances, and ia
king an early opportunity TO see his be-
trothed, urged an Immediate marriage
offering as an excuse for hrs impatieice.
that business would compel him to GO 20
Europe early in the spring, and he wish
ed to take her with hiS. But Emily,
whose feelings towards him had laieral,y
undergone considerable change, frank
ly informed him that she feared her af-
fections were not SO firmly fixed upon him
as 70 justify her in conserving to an early
union under any circumstances. Heinz
plored and entreated with all the elo-
quence of which he was capable. She
was firm in her determination, and bis pas
sion finally getting the better of his discre-
tion. he reproached her with baseness, and
left her forever. .s'i.
So much did Renwick fear to stand
the trial that was approaching, that he
gathered up what ready money was at
his command; amounting tostwenty Sor
thirty thousand dollars and secretly alb
seconded. Ei - ff13
The affair created considerable noise
in the business world. Robert Jordan
had so clearly made out his aunt's claim,
to the property in Renwick's possession,
that he succeeded in recovering for her
what was left of it-about fifty thousand
dollars; and Catharine was at once re-
stored to her position in society.
We have but little more to tell. Rob

wick affair, and the notoriety it gained
him, soon filled his hands with business,
and he prospered accordingly. One year
from that time he led Emily Williams to
the altar, and on the same night Catha-
rine Brainard became the blushing wife
of DIR. John Williams. 1a3
All that was ever after heard of Rem
wick the swindler, was that he led the
wretched life of drunken gambler in
New Orleans-that he was one night
picked up in the street in fit of deleri-
um tremens, and taken to the hospital
thus afording another illustration Of the
truth of the proverb that .the way OF the
transgressor is hard Whether he died

pital. or recovered to lengthen out his
miserable and degraded career was never

The following is most excellent,
cheap, and durable wash for wooden fen
ces and buildings. 1t owes its durability
chiefly to the white vitrol, which hardens
and fixes the wash: ~
Take, barrel and slack a bushel of
freshly burned lime in it by covering the
lime with boiling water. t
B. After it is Stacked add cold water
enough to bring ito the consistency of
good white wash. Then dissolve in wa

(sulphate of zinc) and one quart of fine
salt. a F4 h}

THE GERMANs.-Jean Paul Richter,
the odd, exuberant, grotesque German
humorist, has the following hit at the
precise, plodding, matter-of-fact charac-
ter of his countrymen:
81 kneto the Germans--like metaphy-
sicians, they wish to know every thing
from the bottom, very accurately, in large
octave, with no excess of conciseness'
and with a few citations. They rig out
an epigram with preface, and love
madrigal with atable of contents. They
determine the course of zephyr by sea
compass, and the heart of a girl by con-
ic sections. Like merchants, they mark
every thing with capitals, and prove ey-
cry thing like jurists. The membranes
of their brains are living memorandum
books, their legs are secret metewands
and pedometers. They cut asunder the
veil Of the nine muses., and measure the
hearts of these girls with compasses, and
a gauge"
