A kind-of chronic chill,
That all the doctors in the town
with all their Wanted skllli
Could never cure, I'm very sure,
With powder nor with pill

In their pompous terms OF art,
Nor if they thought it mortal
In such vital part

Something icy round the heart!'
A lady came-her presence brought
The blood into my ears;
She took my hand-and something like
A fever now appearsl

Though I'd been cold for years!

QUEER CAsE.-Recently a man in Vermont
came near getting in trouble in SANDER case
He was boarding in private family, in which
there is rather attractive young lady. As he
was leaving the house after dinner in passing the
window, he spied the damsel sitting in rocking
chair. In order to be sociable he remarked to
her Miss, you look sleepy as though you had
lately fallen, or soon will fall into the arms o!
Morpheus The young lady, not understanding
the meaning of the last term supposed it was the
name Of some young man. Whereupon she told
her mother how the gentleman had insuIted her.
by saying that she had been hugged by Mr.. Nor
pheus. On the return of the gentleman to his
boarding-house, the landlady attacked him with
the usual weapons of matron-told him that she
would give him to understand that her daughter
was never in the arms of Morpheus or any other
young man, and notified him to leave the premi-
ses sans cerenloaie Subsequently he was arrested
for SANDER, but as the magistrate had heard of
Morpheus before, the case was dismissed and the
matron appeased.

A LITTLE INcIDEzT.-A bachelor friend of ours
was riding day OF two ago through Athoi, in
this State, when he overlook little girl and boy
apparently their way TO school. The little
girl appeared to be five or six years old, and was
as beautiful as fairy. Her eyes We're lit up with
CLEAN of intense happiness and her cheeks
glowed with the hues OF health. Oar bachelor
friend looked at her for moment admiringly-
She met his glance with smile, and with an
eager voice saluted him with, Have you got
baby" He was struck aback by the question
and something like regret stole over his mind
as he looked upon the animated, and beautiful
little face before hin. "No," he answered.
~Wel0 she replied, drawing her tiny form proud
ly up, *tce hare, and passed on still smiling. to
tell the joyous news to the next one she might
meet. What a world of happiness to her was
concentrat ted in that one idea-the babyl And in
her joy she felt as if all must have the same de-
Light herself and it matter of affection
ate pride to her that lifted her little heart above
the reach of ordinary envy, for in the baby was
her world, and what else had she to crave? Such
was the reflection of cur friend, and he renem-
bered it long enough to tell it to US yesterday in
State street Boston Post.

Latimer-His Fidelity.

1t Is recorded of Latimer. when on being pro-
NOTED to the bishoprie of Worcester, he was sum-
noned to preach before Henry VIII, he formed
the resolution of faithfully doing has duty a
Minister of Christ, though aware OF the tyranny
and ferocity of the king The sermon gave great
otfense-it was denounced seditious, and was
condemned before a Bench of Bishops. The
king, on hearing of his condemnation, called on
Latimer for his defence. The man of God was
firm and undaunted. His reply is worthy OF be-
ing kept on record: Il never thought myself wor-
thy said he, sand never sued to be a preacher
before your grace, but [ was called to it; and
would be willing, if You dislike it, to give place
to my betters, for | grant there may be many
more worthy of the room than I au. And if it
be your grace's pleasure to allow them for preach
ers could be content to bear their books after
them. But if your grace allow me for preacher.
would desire you to give me leave to discharge
my conscience, and to frame my doctrine accord
ing to my ard el5e had been a very dolt in
deed, to have preached so at the borders Of your
realm, as preach before your grace
Here were true boldness and Christian ilality.
'not fearing the wrath of the king They had
their reward The malice of Latimer's enemies
was defeated. the anger of the king passed away
and Latimers security and interests were promo
ted. Different would have been the result had
he, with craven heart, quailed before the stern
eye of the Monarch, and confessed faults of which
he had not been guilty, and promised to smooth
his tongue and use hattering words, when address
ing the ears OF royalty. In tais instance prov:-
dence took care Of its own AMI sisnaily wrought
for the deliveranee of this faithful servant from
the gathering storm, and the intended harm.
