A Dream Realized.

Some time during the past summer, a
stranger stopped at one Of the watering
places on the mountain south of Waynesbo-
ro', Pa. After his arrival there he was TAX
en- sick, and for several days was apparently
deranged. On his recovery he informed the
proprietor of the house that during his ill.,
ness he had dreamed for three nights in suc>
cession that he had discovered at certain
distance in the mountain, under a rock, an
earthea crock, containing large amount of
silver. At this the worthy host expressed
his surprise, spoke of it as a mysterious
dream. Afterwards, however, they were
walking together in that direction, when the
dream was again adyerted to by the stranger
and theproprietor at once proposed an ex-
animation, 10 satisfy their curiosity. The
rock was soeB found, aRd after carefully
brushing the leaves away, it WIS moved, and
TO their utter amazement, there sat crock
full Of silver. They took it out and conveyed
it secretly 10 the house, and on examination
it was found 10 contain $500, (aR in half
doIlars,l which was divided equally between
them. The day after this discovery, the
stranger was about to lake his leave of khe
mountalR, and complained TO his friend, the
proprietor OF the springs, of the Inconvenience
of carrying the silver, when an exchange was
proposed and made, the stranger receiving
bankabe paper for his silver. II was moi
long sitter his departure, heweyer, till The
proprietor had made another discovery-hs
four hundred dollars in silper ,oere counterfeit,
and he had been ingeniously swindael out
of two hundred dollars.

Shepley, in his charge to the Jury in the Gar
diner Fountain Case, gave the following def
milton of libel:
This publication, 1 am boand to say, as mat
ter of law, is violation of the law. that it is
illegal, is wrongful, is immoral. Still, if such
be the character, the law allows the Defend :
ant to prove the truth, and stand justified. So
that ,ohaterer be the character of a publication,
truth is a justification. 1t is unlawful and i'm
moral for one to call his neighbor thief, but
if he proves it he stands acquitted; the truth
takes away the immortality. So mighty is the
power Of truth, that in the eye of the law. to
write or publish the truth is never immoral
A man may ever speak the truth, and be
blameess, and be entitled to commentator
for speaking it.
