AWFUL VISITATION OF PRovIDENcE.--
We record upon unimpeachable testimo-
N.Y. one of tho most singular incidents
noted in the history Of crime, and punish,
ment. On last Thursday, Happy Jack,
a notorious character, and---ftice, on
the pretence of changing some money,
attempted to rob countryman oftwenty
dollars. The attempt was made on the
Arkansas side, opposite to this city,
the parties standing within a few feet of
the river. BY agreement, Happy Jack
Quietly got into the skiii whilst Rice was
occupying the attention of the country
man. This confederate then, in posses.
sion of the strangers money, rushed
down the hill to the boat, which Happy
Jack, as soon as Rice had gotten u,
pushed out into the stream. Rice had
fallen upon his face in the boat the mo.
ment he got in, and lay in that position.
A gentleman on the shore called to Hap.
py Jack that his confederate was dead &
so it was; the robber of his fellow man
had, in the very act of successful crime,
been called by God to his final jud gment.
The survivor, Happy Jack, alarmed and
Mortified, returned to shore, and was i'm
mediately arrested.-Memphis Eagle.
TnE BLooM Oh AGE.-A good woman
never grows old. Years may pass over
her head, but if benevolence and virtue
dwell in her heart, she is as cheerful as
when the spring of life first opened to
her view. When we look upon good
wotfian we never think of her age; she
looks as charming as when the rose Of
youth bloomed on her cheek. That rose
has not faded yet; it will never fade. In
her family she is the life and delight. In
her neighborhood she is the friend and
benefactor. In the church, the devoul
worshipper aud the exmpelary christian.
Who does not respect and love the wo
man who has passed her days in acts of
kindness and mercy; who has been the
friend of man and God; whose whole life
has been scene Of Kindness and love. a
devotion to truth and religionl We RS.
peat such woman cannot grow old
She will always be fresh and buoyantiu
spirits, and active in humble deeds oI
mercy and benevolence.. If the young
lady desires to retainthe bloom and be eau
ty of youth, let her love truth and virtue
and to the close of life she will retair
those feelings which now make life ap
pear garden of sweets, ever fresh anr
ever new. @
