Good morning, neighbor Dood;
how is thy family" exclaimed Obe-
diah, as Ire mounted the steps, and seat
ed himself in chair.
"All well, l believe" was the reply.
II have a small affair to settle with
you this morning, and l came rather
early"
so suppose" growled Watt.
"This morning my son found thy
Durham heifer in my garden where
she has destroyed good deal"
"And what did he do with herr" de-
manded Dood, his brow darkening.
"What would thee have done with
her, had she been my heiter in thy
garden?" asked Obediah.
"Pd shot her!' retorted Watt, mad
ly, "as SUPPOSE you have done but
we are only even now. Heifer for
filly is only 'tit for tat"
"Neighbor Dood, thou knowes. me
not, if thou thinkest would harm q
hair OF thy heifer's back. She Is in
my farm-yard, and not even blow
has been struck her, where the cap
get her at any time. know thee
shot my flly; but the evil lone prompt-
ed thee to do it, and | lay no evil in
my heart against my neighbors l
came TO tell thee where thy heifer is,
and now III 90 home"
Obediah rose from his chair, and
was about to descend the steps,
when he was stopped by Watt, who
hastily asked, "What was your hliy
worth 2" "a hundred dollars is what
l ssked for her." replied Cbediah.
'Wait moment" and Dood rush
ed into the house, from whence he
soon returned, holding some gold in
his hand. "IIere's the price of your
filly; and hereafter let there be plea
santness between U.S."
Willingly, heartily" answered
Lawson, grasping the profered hand
of the other; 'let there be peace be-
tween u.s."
Obediah mounted his horse, and
rode home with lighter heart; and
from that day to this. Dood has been
as good a neighbor as one could wish
to have; being completely reformed
by the returning good for evil.

POETRY.
A L 0 N Z

List my soul--as the night-wind drear
Walls DER the dead leaves, pale and sere,
On the bleak earth strown,
Signing and shuddering, faint and cold,
As the cry of the perjured, doomed and
old.
1t shrieks afar DER the blighted void,
"Aone-alone'
Look wbcrc the vagrant wild-f els light
Fitting afar through the shadowy night,
Ger the grave is thrown;
A lurid gloom in the dismal haze,
Now light, now lost, to the dreamers
1t aames-it fades in the wildered maze
Alone-alone.
Hist! from the depth of the haunted well,
Rises signal, dread and fell
At the sullcn moan,
The crumbling walls DER the waters
shake,
The spotted toad and the Shiny snake
In their beds of lichen quail and quake,
Alone alone.
Far to the verge of the lonely glen,
Round the fox's lair and the ban VOLTS
den,
Sweeps the wizard tone;
1t summons the ghoul from his charnel-
bed,
Withered and gibbering, and demon-fcd,
To the path ofdoom--a away he's sped,
Alone-alone
Tu-whitl tu-whool twas the mousing owl,
Keeping his watch by an altar foul,
On the Druid-stone;
Hid from the prowling vampire brood
Deep in the gloom of the mystic WOOD
He covers down in the solitude,
Alone alone.
Croak croak twas the ravens cry;
Mid the boughs of the hemlock, dank
and high,
His fend-eye shone
To the night-hag hid in the blasted tree,
AS lone, us weired, as fierce as he,
Came the chant OF his mocking prophecy,
Alone alone
Hark what stided, writhing sound
Slowly creeps from the murderer S
mound,
Like victims groan--
Too dread to rise on the winds wild
swell,
Deep through the dim "ghoul-
dell
Echoes the murmer hoarse and fell,
"Alone alone ="
Up my soul, from this charnel gloom,
That binds thee down in living tomb
With its leaden zone
Up my soul, on the tempest tide
Of a dark existence, wild and wide,
To doom and destiny proudly ride,
Alone alone
