"A traveller, setting out upon a long jour
ney, was assailed on the road by ours, mas
tiffs, and half-grown puppies, which came out
of their kennels to bark at him as he passed
along. He often dismountedIf from his horse
to drive them back with stones and sticks,
into their hiding places This operation was
repeated every day, and sometimes as often
as twenty times a day. The consequence
was, that more than half the travellers time
was consumed in chasing these dog puppies
At last, he was overtaken by d neighbor, who
was going the same road, but who had set
out long time after him, The latter travel

APPATTJNG ACCIDENT.

A most appalling accident happened on the
9th ult near the town of Monaghan. r l..
Grason, Esq. and his lady, to whom he was
married on the 22d of May, were taking a
drive in pony phaeton at 4 o'clock, P. NJ,
in the direction of Rosmore park, when, Ia
mentable to relate, the two ponies took fright,
and bounded over a hedge that crosses the
Ulster canal, and fell into the canal about 100
feet deep, killing Mr.. and Mrs Grason, and
Miss A. Graham, siSter-in-law to the unfortU-
nate young gentleman. Mr.. Grason's butler
stated before the coroner, on oath, that Mr..
Grason and the two ladies, Were under the
influence Of liquor on leaving the house, and
would not allow the coachman to drive. Mr..
Grason has left no relative to inherit his large
property, about gI6,000 per annum.--Stand-
crd Of freedom.

TEMPERANCE PROMOTES HEALTH.

The St. Louis Fountain says: We have
been frequently struck with the fact, that the
statistics of our Order show so few deaths OF
its members. There can be no question:, that
health is greatly promoted by abstaining from
even the moderate use of intoxicating drinks.
The following article from the. Burlington
Hawk-Eye, is to the point.
"SONS OF IEMPERANCE.-May we not at
tribute great portion of the healthiness of
this place the past two seasons, under Gods
goodness, to the influence of the Sons of Tenn
Perance? 1t is well known that alcohol indu-
ces disease. The abstaining from its use by
SO many has doubtless prevented much sick
ness. The most remarkable fact, and one too
which speaks volumes in favor Of the influence
OF the Order, is, that since its organization in
this city more than eighteen months ago, there
has not been a single death in either of tile
Divisions, and they now number, in the ag-
gregate, more than three hundred members.

REVERENCE FOR AGE.

How beautiful it is to see the young rever-
ence old age. We never see a little boy bow
ing respectfully to an old man in the street
bat we feel sure he is a good boy. Reyer.
ence IS always due to aged people. Good ma
ture and proper education say to the
young, reverence old age. Gray hairs are
crowns OF glory. when found IN the way of
righteousness. The promptngs of our kind
ly nature teach US to respect the aged, to rise
up before the hoary head. The eye, the fur
rowed brow and temples thinly clad, who
would not respect, reverence. and love them

THE ORIGIN OF DEW DROPS.

TIE ORIGIN OF DEW DROPS.
When Eve had quit her favorite bowers,
re sighed and her tears fell fast on the flowers,
Ssaose leaves, in sunshine the following morn,
Appeared with new lustre. thus sadly born.
"A bevy of Angels, at the break Of day,
At Eden arrived on their horneward bound way
From new born star in the Iimitless zone
That encircles Jehovahs glorious throne.
And surprised at a sight, the rarest on earth.
These ANGELS abandoned the moment to mirth
And gathered the flowers, all studded with gems,
And wore them. all entwined, Is choice diadems
Thus gsily adorned returning TO Heaven,
The Angels petitioned-Gods fat was given:
And 20 ever since, at the same early hour,
Thc crystalline gems are seen on the flower.
Whilst deckd with the dew-drop the flowers sp-
And radiant smile is chasing tear, Lpesr
The sunshine, the joy. diffusing the smile
To loveliness add an exquisite vile.
q not then III vain wept fair penltent I've,
Since gift Of such beauty the flowers receive;
Their Queen, the sweet rose, the emblem of love,
Bears witness Eyes tears found favor above!
