He struck in for the shore, but seeing me,
did not dare to land. I teassd him so
for two miles. Isaw he was getting tired,
but didn't want to shoot him yet, and
followed him till he went over the rapids,
and into the deep hole by the Haunted
Rock. Here I had to leave the river
bank, and watched him swimming along
until he found shelf on which he crawl

couldn't crawl up the rock-that was
pretty certain and while he was discus

garret one morning. quite at his Wits end
for the means of contriving what Goethe
facetiously called" the delightful habit Of
existing" Turning over his scanty re-
mains Of clothes and other possessions, in
the vain hope of lighting upon something
of marketable character, he suddenly
took up sheet Of cardboard which in
happier days he had destined for the
sketches at which he was an Indifferent
adept. He had evidently formed a plan,
however absurd that was plain from the
odd smile which irradiated his features.
He descended the stairs to-borrow of his
landlady-what? A shilling7 By no
means. A needle and thread, and pair
of scissors. Then he took out his box Of
water-colors and set to work. To design
a picture ?-Not bit of it /; to make dan
cling dolls Yes, the-man without pro-
fs.sion had found trade. BY the time
1t was dusk he had made several figures

ductions of works Of art; but there was a
spirit and expression about them that toy
shops rarely exhibit. The ingenious
manufacturer then sailed forth with his
merchandise. Within an hour afterwards
he might have been seen driving bar

In the beginning was the word
By which the whole creation rose;
This word was our redeSming love,
Who died to save us from our woes.
The glorious orbs that deck the sky,
With wind and earth, and rolling food,
Each in their different language cry
"This alternating word was God"
Whom He hung bleeding for our sakes,
Both Heaven and Earth in mourning stood.
And when the conquerer awakes,
They both proclaim the rising God.
Our souls adore tho wondrous grace,
That brought Him from His throne on high,
Down to our earth to save our race,
And bring us rebels to the sky.

THE PREACHER AND THE ROB-
RER,

A preacher many years ago was jour-
neying to village where he was to dis.
pense the word of life, according to the
usual routine of his duty, and was stop
ped on his way by three robbers. One
of them seized his bride reins, another
presented pistol and demanded his mo.
ney; the third was mere locker on.
The grave and devout man looked at
each and all of them in the face, and with
great gravity and seriousness said -
" Friends. did you pray to God before
you left home? Did you ask God to bless
you in your undertakings to-day :"
The question startled them for a mo-
mcnt. Recovering themselves, they
said, "We have no time to answer such
questions; we want your money"
"I am poor preacher of the gospel, "
was the reply, "but what little money l
have shall be given to you."
A few shillings was all he had to give.
"HavS you not watch?"
eyes"
"Well then give it to u.s."
In taking the watch from his pocket his
saddle-bags were displayed.
"What have you hers?" was the ques-
ton again.
"I cannot say have nothing in them
but religious books, because have pair
of shoes and change of linnen also"
1--WE must have them"
The preacher dismountcd. The sad
die bags were taken possession OF, and
no further demand made. Instantly the
preacher began to unbutton his great coat,
and to throw it off his shoulders, at the
same time asking. "Will you have my
great coat ?"
no." was the reply, "you are q gene
rous man, and we will not take it,
He then addressed them as followa:
al have given you everything you ask
ed for. and would have given more than
you asked for. have one fsvorto ask OF
you."
"What Is that?"
That YOU kneel down and allow me
to pray to Almighty God in your behalf
to ask him to turn your hearts, and put
you in the right way"
"Ill have nothing to do with the
mans things" said the ringlsAder OF
them.
"Nor 1 either" said another Of them.
"Here, take your watch. take your mo-
ney, take your saddle-bags; If we have
anything to do with you the judgment OF
God will oycrtake us"
So each article was returned. That,
however, did not satisfy the sainted man.
He urged prayer upon them. He knelt
down; one of the robbers knelt with him;
one prayed, the other wept and confessed
his sin said it was the first time in his
life that he had done such thing, and it
should be the last.
How far he kept his word is known on
" to Him, to whom the darkness and the
light are equally alike-to Him whose
eyelids try the children Of men,

CHARAerER FROM THE LIPs.-Leigh
Hunt, speaking of those who have thin
lips, and not Shrews and niggards, says /:
~ must give here as my firm opinion,
founded on what have observed, that
lips become more or less contracted in the
course of years, in proportion as they are
accustomed to express good humor and
generosity, or peevishness and contrac-
ted mind. Remark the effect which a
moment of i'll humor and grudgingneSs
has upon the lips, and indulge what may
be expected from an habitual species OF
such moments. Remark the reverse and
make similar Judgment. The mouth is
the frankest part Of the face 1t can the
least conceal its sensation. We can hide
neither ill.temper with it nor good: We
may affect what we please, but atfecta-
tion will not help us. In a wrong cause
it will only make our observers resent the
endeaTor to impose upon them. The
mouth is the seat of one class of emotions,
as the eyes are Of another or, rather, it
expresses the same emotions but in grea-
ter detail, and with more irrspressible
tendency to be in motion Itis the region
Of smiles and dimples, and of trembling
