An Exquisite Story by Lamartine.

In the tribe Of Neggdeh there was horse
whose fame was spread far and near, and be-
douin of another tribe, by name Daher, desired
extremely to possess it. Having offered 10 vain
for it his cames and his whole wealth, he hit at
length upon the following device, by which he
hoped the object of his desire. He resolved 10
stain his face with the juice of an herd, to
clothe himself in rags, to tie his legs and neck
together SO as to appear like lame beggar'
Thus equipped, he went to wait for Naber, the
owner of the horse, who he knew was to pass
that way. When he saw Naber approaching on
his beautiful stced, he cried out in weak voice,
81 am stranger for three days have been
unable to move from this spot to seek for food.
| am dying, help me, and heaven will reward
you" The Bedoin kindly offered 10 take him
up on his horse and carry him home but the
rogue replied. II cannot rise il have no strength
left" Naber touched with pity, dislnounted
led his horse to the spot, and, with great diff
Guilty, set The seeming beggar on its back. But
no sooner did Daher feel himself in the saddle
than he set spurs to the horse, and gallopped off,
calling out as he did so, " 1t is I, Daber. have
got the horse, and am off with it." Naber call
ed after him to stop and listen. Certain OF moi
being pursued, he turned, and halted at shor'
distance from Naber, who was armed with a
spear. You have taken my horse," said the
latter. "Slnce heaven has wied it, wish you
Joy of it; but do conjure you never to tell any
one how you obtained it." "And why not p
said Daher. Because" said the noble Arab
" another man might be really ill, and men
would fear to help him. You would be the cause
of many refusing to perform an act of charity
for fear of being duped as have been." Struck
with shame at these words, Daher was silent fo
moment, then springing from the horse, re-
turned it to it's owner, embracing him. Nabe
made him accompany him to his tent, wher'
they spent few days together, and became fas
friends for life.

subjects, he was particularly enioined to endea-
yor on favorable occasions to ascertain the depth
of the ocean. The present communication gives
an account Of deep sea sounding in 7,706 faith
oms, in 36 degrees, 49 minutes, south latitude
and 81 degrees, minutes, west longitude. The
sounding was obtained on calm day, October

CHANGE OF Color IN THE HAIR.-Dr. War
drop, an English author, in treatise on " Disea-
ses of the Heart" relates some cases of the sud-
den changing of the hair from black to white.
A lady who was deeply grieved on receiving the
intelligence of agreat change in her worldly con.
dition, and who had remarkable quantity of
DARK hair, found, on the following morning, the
whole of her hair had become of silver white.
Some striking instances of this kind are narrated
by historians. 81 vas struck" said Madame
Campen, "wilh the astonishing change misfor-
tune had wrought upon Marie Antoinettes fea-
lures; her whole head of hair had turned almost
white during her transit from Varennes to Paris"
The Duchess of Luxembourg was caught max
ing her escape during the terrors of the French
Revolution, and put in prison; the next morning
it was observed that her hair had become white.
A Spanish officer, distinguished for his bravery,
was in the Duke Of Alva's camp, and an expert
ment was made by one Of the authorities to test
his courage. At midnight, the Provost Marshal, +,
accompanied by bis guard anu confessor, woke
him from his sleep, informing him that, by the
order of the Viceroy, he was to be Immediately
executed, and had only quarter of an hour left
to make bis peace with Heaven. After he had
confessed, he said that he was prepared for
DEATH but declared his innocence. The Provost
Marshal at this moment broke into fit oflaugh-
ter and SAID that they wanted to try his cour-
age Placing his hand upon his heart, and with,
phastly paleness, he ordered the Provost out of
his tent obser ling that he had done him an evil
Office; and the ne t morning, to the wonder Of
the whole army, the hair of his head, from hav-
ing been of deep black color, had become per-
fectly white.

Sam Slick on Lawyers.

Few things resemble each other more IN ma.
tur' than the old cunnin lawyer and spider.
He weaves his web into corner, with no light
behind to show the thread of his net, but in
shade like, there he waits in his dark office to
receive his visitors. A buzzin', burrin, thought
less fy, thinkin' of nothin' but bis beautiful
wings, and well-made legs, and rather near
sighted withal, comes stumblin' head over heels
into the net
81 beg your pardon" says the fy," really
didn't see that network of yours; The weather
is foggy, and the streets so contounded dark, Pm
afraid I've done mischief"
"Not at ALL says the spider, bowin'. 81
guess it's all my fault. reckon l had ought to
have hung lamp out; but pray don't move, or
YOU may do damage. Allow me to assist you"
And then he ties up one leg and then the other,
and furls up both his wings, and has min fast as
Gibraltar. "Now," says the spider, my good
friend ia phrase felier alters uses when he's
a goin' to be tricky Pm afraid you've hurt your
self considerable sum; must bleed you"
"Bleed me J" says the Av; "excuse me; Pm
obliged to you: don't require it,"
"Oh yes you do, my dear friend, !" and he gets
ready for the operation.
IF you dare to do that" says the fly, "I'll
knock you down; and I'm man that what ]
lay down stand on"
"You had better get up first,' says the spider
laughin' you must be bled; you must pay all
damages" And he bleeds him till he gasps fol
BREATH and feels fainlin' comm on.
"Let me 60, my good fellow" says poor fly
and will pay you literally"
"Pay!" says the spider. "You miserable
uncircumcised wretch; you have nothing lett t
pay with; take that !" and he gives him the las
dig, and he is gone coon-bled to death.
