of a revolution are rife in Mexico. The
Government seems to be at its wits ends,
and Congress is no better off, After spen.

devise ways and "means for replenishing"
their exhausted exchequer, they now find
themselves in worse condition than at
first. The only practicable measure, that
Of removing the prohibitions" or restric-
tions which now paralyze the industry and
commerce Of the country, has been set
aside. For some time the Chambers have
been engaged in discussing the e1pediency

ure at last passed the Senate, and was, at
the last accounts, still under discussion in
the Chamber of Deputies A Committee
Of that body had reported in favor of it,
and there is little doubt that it passed on

make Arista virtual dictator, and will
open the door for the attempts of other as
pirants. In fact, the country seems to b.

The Exemption Law-The Credit
SVStems -s,sf-

In a suit in the court of common pleas
Of Philadelphia county to recover property
sold by the sheriff, in alleged violation Of
the provision of three hundred dollar ex-
emption law, Judge Parsons is represented
to have said that, CAN the laws that had
been passed by the legislature for a num-
ber of years back, to protect poor man
were a retrogade from civilization. For
merly poor man could get credit !; now
he could get none. Nobody would trust
him"
With all due Difference to the better
judgment of Judge Parsons, we think ne
is wrong in his opinion of the effects Of the
three hundred dollar law, and the law
abolishing imprisonment for debt (Which
we suppose is included in the measures he
alludes toy upon the interests Of the poor
man. We admit that there are casesoin
which credit is desirable and necessary for
the poor man, and that there are also cases
in which he is deprived of it by the ope-
ration of the laws in question, but as a
general rule, deprivation Of credit is, in
our opinion, an advantage rather than an
injury to the poor man. "Man wants but
little here below" and none but those
who have tried it are aware Ct how little q
|
man can get along upon who limits his ex
penditures to his actual wants. This the

to do, and gets along, if not 50 comfortably

Death of Children,

With our present imperfect knowledge
OF the art OF life, and our disregard of the
laws of health, we are compelled to witness
the terrible fact that large proportion of
all the mortality of our race, occurs with
children of a tender age. 1t is the buds and
blossoms that death tra1nples TO dust, when
and if bis shafts % are aimed d':His alike sSi'Gi &C s
they tell with greatest effect upon the lit
tie ones. And if his blows fall thickest
and hardest upon the core of the family
circle-nearest the heart of the parent
the wounds inflicted there are most deep
and lasting. There is in all this checkered
world, no sorrow Ike that of the parent
bercft of children. David of old said al
am distressed for thee, my brother Jona-
than;" but over the dead body Of his re-
bellious child, he cried, would God l had
died for thee, o Absalom, my son, my
sonw Only those who have drank this
cup can realize its bitterness. The sym
pathy of friends, though grateful to those
who are bereaved, falls far short of the OBJ
ject for which it is kindly intended. There
is no consolation to be derived from earth,
and the power of religion itself only en-
ables us to bear the wound which even it
can not heal How many mothers there
are, whose thoughts under all the circum-
stances of their lives, are every moment
flying to the graves where sleep theirlittle
ones. How many father is there, who,
since he first rose from the dust in which
he was prostrated by the blow which struck
from his side darling little son, has COW
cred the bleeding wound from sight, and
whose very life depends upon hiding it
from himself and the worldwide is obliged
with resolute nerve, to hold the grief that
would wrestle with his spirit at arms
length, lest it should hourly prostrate him
in the dust-who must constantly drive
away from the windows of his soul, the
little pleading face which would come
back to commune with its earthly father;
must ever unclasp those little fingers from
the easement, that the too dearly loved
form may drop into the darkness without
or, must else turn and flee from himself
and strive in the whirl of the outer worlt
to escape the haunting vision with which
he ever longs to commune, but dares not
who prays and waits for the time to conn
when he can bear an interview with tn
little lost one, and yield himself up full.
to the sweet memories of the past, whel
they lived and we're happy together. Ho'
many 60 about with smiling faces, an
plunge fercely into excitements, while tn
parental feeling is damned up in thei
bosoms, ready to overwhelm them wit
agony There are griefs, and this is on
of their mightiest, too deep for tears, to
heavy to bear, and from which we mus
fly when possible-with which We mus
struggle as best We may when they com
upon us in the lone watches Of the nigh
and for which our best consolation is, th'
some time death will cure them, by brin

Extraordinary Escape.

The last Abingdon Virginian contains
the following account:
The children of Mr. George Hickan. a
fssnaa1Shm ssn1micss sInK=nuIc:- IN rncn gamDv.s,
one Of them, a boy about eight or ten
years of age, pushed his little brother,
about four years old, headlong over the
edge and down into the deep, dark pit be-
low. 1t was some time after the child
was missed, before any certain information
could be drawn from the others as to what
had become of him; and it was only by
threats of severe punishment, that final
ly overcamc their fear and extorted from
him who did the deed confession of what
had happened. An effort was made imme-
diately to ascertain the situation Of the
little fellow and afford him relief, if he
was not beyond its power. Ropes were
tied together with stone attached to one
end, and an attempt was made to fathom
the depth beneath, but more than sixty
feet of rope were employed in vain, no bot
tom could be reached. A lighted candle
was then let down, but its light gave no
hopeful indication except that the pit was
free Of choke-damp, or impure air, as far
down as the candle descended. Night came
on and all further efforts had to be for the
time abandoned. On the next day further
trials we're made of the depth Of the pit,
but with no better success. In des-
pair, the frantic parents were about to
give up all hopes of recovery or relieving
their little innocent, and preparations were
being made to close up the mouth Of the
pit, to prevent like occurrence in future,
when it was suggested and agreed upon
that another and final effort should be
made by letting some individual down by
ropes to examine the nature of the abyss
and ascertain if there was any encourage
ment for further efforts to be found below.
| A brother of the lost child undertook
the fearful task. Cords were fastened
around his waist and limbs, and one to his
wrist, by which he might indicate to those
above his wishes either to descend or to be
drawn up. He was swung of and slowly
lowered, until having gone to the depth Of
about so feet, he looked below him, and
there shone through the thick darkness two
glistcning eyes intently looking upward
In another moment he was standing on a
shelf or angle in the shaft with the child
clasped to his bosom. He fastened the little
, fellow securely to his own body, and bid
ding him take the rope firmly in his hands
the signal was given to draw up. Ths
child held convulsively to the rope, and il
a few minutes they rose within view of tn
hundred anxious spectators, who had as
sembled to witness the result; and whel
the first glimpse Of the little fellow aliv'
< caught their eager gaze, screams an dshout
!. Of ioy from the excited multitude fllet
the air, andbig tears Of sympathy starte'

with the exception Of little bruise on tn
back of its head, it was perfectly soun,
and unhurt The only complaint that i
made was that it was hungry, being nearly
27 hours under the ground. To inquiries
made of it, it replied that it saw a light
and heard it thunder. From the nature
of the pit, it appears that the little fellow
had fallen perpendicular distance of 40
feet, upon slope or bend in the shaft t,and
from that place had sided Gown 20 feet
farther to the spot where he was found lea
ming against sort Of pillar or wall, and
gazing upward. How he escaped in
slant destruction is beyond all &C.
count.
