What lesson for US, dear children This
poor little boy, 50 tired and warm from picking
berries all day in the sun, trudging miles with
his heavy pail Of fruit, felt II he had lost them
all, he would not have been SO badly off as one
who would cheat him! Little children, will you
just think of this, when you are tempted in any
wayto defragd aplaymate? Just think you get
the-wOrst of it, not the loser, by the fraud How
often,dO we hear persons express great pity when
any one has had property stolen from him. But
he does not get the worst of it. Though man
lose all he has, and retains his integrity and hon
esty, he is rich compared with the man who has
robbed him.
Yes little childrenif you disobey your parents
if you abuse your schoolmates--if you are
guilty Of lying or stealing, you get the worst of
it; far more than those whom you may deceive,
or injure, or disObey. The suffering may be
theirs ;but the sin is yours God marks the sin,
and though the sinner may awhile go unpuaished

you are tempted to deceive. He seemed to have
no fear of being cheated he only felt it would
be great injustice, and though he might be the
loser, he would not exchange situations with one
who might deceive him. have often thought
of this poor boy since, and when he comes with
the berries, | always buy them and pay him
well, knowing that he must be an honest, faith

The Calorio Ship Ericsson.

1t was stated a short time since, that ship
was building in New York, to which new mo-
tive power was TO be applied, viz, caloric. A
New York letter in the Transcript gives some
interesting particulars in regard to this new pow
er, and the ship which is to be propelled by 1t.
The correspondent Says
"On Saturday visited the engine maniac

than those in the small CRATES under the bottoms

Earth's Wonder Man.

Cleveland True Democrat, who attended the
Kossuth German meeting at Pittsburgh, writes,
with his usual beauty, in the following strain =
"This man Kossuth-who is be What is he
The German calls him the " the wonder man of
EARTH" And he is SO. For he is not feared;
he sways not by authority he charms not by
his brliancy of wit he conquers no one by
glory. He is only plain man, and man Of
sorrow. Yet servant, soldier, scholar, volunteer
Englishman and exiIed Hungarian, love him,
and look up to him as Father and Friend. No
familiarity robs his character of one charm. No
daily intercourse weakens one lneament of its
beautiful outline. The better he is known, the
more he is loved. Now wherefore? He is
true, lovingly So to country, friends, principle
and so full of consideration, of an inborn scorn
of any shame which could mantle the cheek,
and of heroic manliness, that he binds men to
him by the deepest human affections. speak

Singular Discovery of a Robbery
A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.


A great deal of excitement has been created
in the higher classes of the Austrian capitol, by
the remarkable and somewhat romantic develop
ments of numerous heavy robberies, which for
wears past have been committed in and near the
metropolis, by one or more maletactors, whose
whereabouts it was impossible to trace out. In
order to give thorough insight into the matter'
we must begin at period when the existence
of this gang was first proved by their actions.
Towards the close of October, ls48, during
fine and clear autumnal night, the travelling
carriage of Mr.. Edward c. Brooks, wealthy
merchant Of London, who then was on his way
back to Vienna, from long tour in Upper Italy
and Lombardc Provinces, was stopped within
three miles of Vienna, in the most populated
part of that country.
One man only presented himself at the coach
windows. and courteously, but firmly, demanded
the surrender of whatever valuables the inmates
of the conveyance possessed. With Mr. Brooks
there were two ladies, his wife and her young
sister, the latter of whom had drawn her purse,
and was in the act Of handing it to the highway
man. when her extended arm was fractured by
pistol shot from Mr. Brooks, who, without having
perceived the movement Of his sister-in.l law, had
from the back seat of the carriage quietly taken
aim at the robber, with view of answering the
impudent demand. A scene of terrific confusion
then ensued the report of the pistol brought.
besides the two men who guarded the coachman
and horses, three more individuals to the support
Of the highwayman the traces were cut in an
instant, the coachman was lashed to his seat
and the highwaymen prepared to aVenge the
death of their leader, who lay, apparently IMAM
innate on the ground.
The doors Of the cdIeshs were torn open, but
the spectacle which there presented itself was
such as to make the robbers pause before they
launched out upon the mission of revenge Miss
Perry, the wounded lady, lay in the arms of her
sister, whose speechless agony proved the hor-
ror which she felt at the occurrence. Mr. Brooks
still ignorant that it was he who inflicted the IN
Jury, had nevertheless abandoned all lucas Vi
resistance and was vainIy endeavoring to staunch
the blood, which flowed in torrents from the
qhastIy wound. For some moments the high
waymen looked upon this mourntu scene' un'll
low moan from their leader reminded them OF
the necessity of giving him that attention which
his condition peremptorily called for. A few
minutes suffced to prove that he was no. dan
perously wounded the bullet, after fracturing
the slender aim of Miss Perry, had spent isell
against his chest, causing what the Germans call
Prellschus, and although it did not penetrate
the flesh, had still force enough to break bone
or two, without any other outward sign than
small black spot on the place where the leader
messenger struck The chief soon recovered

The wealth of mind and heart, of faith and
love, no change can take from US. He who
through study, and meditation, and prayer, has
come to a calm trust in God as the Father of all,
the director of human destiny, and the Disposer
Of all events who has stored his mind with USE
tnl knowledge, and strengthened it by proper
discipline; who has ever dealt justly, honorably
and mercifuily whose heart is full of gentle af-
fections and sympathies; and whose memory
like picture-gallery, is hung all round with the
beautiful images Of the good deeds he has done
this man is stronger than all evil. He cannot
be surprised into despair by any change, howev-
er painful or sudden.-He cannot be overcome
by any misfortune, however great; not even
though all his earthly goods should be swept
away, and himself hurried into the presence
of death.
