Life ResuScifated.

a remarkable instance of bringing back
TO life, when apparently gone, occurred
on Saturday last at Trenton, New Jersey.
\ boy about twelve years old, the son
Of Charles Hankinson, fell into the canal.
DR.. Shelton was called, and on arriving
there (the true American says he found
person endeavoring to find the body
with large pole. No person present
thought for moment that the boy could
be saved, inasmuch as he had disappeared
for several minutes. The body was f.
nally raised by the pole, and taken of
by DIR. Shelton. 1t had the appearance
Of death, the eyes being closed, and the
mouth shut. The body was put in a
Teeumbent position, and the process of
rubbing and pressing the stomach was
commenced. This occasioned the patient
to belch and discharge water, and it was
soon found that life had returned, and
that the boy was breathing. The result
Of the matter astonished all who were
present. The boy was interrogated as
to how far in his perilous situation he
retained any recognition. He says he
remembers going down twice, and Of
making every effort to save himself; but,
after he went down the second time, he
had no recollection whatever of any cir
cumstance.-Ne1eayk AdgertGSer.

Singular and Terrible Accident

We learn from the "Adler" the par
ticulars Of an extraordinary accident which
occurred on Saturday, the 21st ult, in
Bern township. Mr. Elisha Davis, a
large man weighing about 200 pounds,
and GO years of age, was engaged in ma
king a small hay stack, and before he
quite finished, cast over the side a, pitch
fork, with handle of the ordinary
length, which stood upright against the
stack After completing his work, he
descended from the stack himself, and
unfortunately alighted at the very place
where the fork was standing, the handle
of which pierced his body between the
legs, and penetrated into the stomach
about II inches, until it touched the
breast bone! There was no one present
at the time but small boy, who endeav-
orcd to draw the hsndle out Of the wound
with one hand, but not succeeding, he
afterwards took hold with both hands,
and by exerting himself to the utmost of
his strength, pulled it out. The woun-
ded man, in excruciating pain, walked
some distance towards his dwelling alone,
when neighbor approached, and assisted
him home. The handle of the fork was
about II inches thick, and sawed off
blunt at the end which pierced him. Dr.
Spatz was called in to attend him, and
what is almost incredible to relate, he has
50 far improved as to be considered out
of Danger -zReadine GGodte.

Affections.
BY II. H. LoNGFELLow.

Let US be patient These severe Affections
Not from the ground arise;
But oftentimes celestial benedctons
Assume this dark disgu Sc.
And though, at times, impetuous with emotion
And anguish long suppressed,
The swelling heart heaves, moaning like the Ocear
That cannot be at rest;
We will be patient and assuage the feeling
We cannot wholly stay;
By silence sanctifying. not concealiGg,
The grief that must have way.
We can but see dmIy through the mists and vapors
Amid these earthly damps;
What seem TO us like DIM funeral tapers,
May be Heavens distant lamps.
There is no death: what seems so is transition.
This life of mortal breath
Is but suburb of the life eIysian,
Whose portal we call death.
In that great cloister's stiffness and seclusion,
By guardian angels led,
Safe from temptation, safe from sims pollution,
He lives whom we call dead.
