THE OLD WOMAN.

Gray-haired and very old was she,
With many a wrinkle where
The rose and lilly ohce had bloomed
When life's young morn was there;
And often from her dim old eyes
Methought there fell tear
Upon her knitting work, that told
Of memories fond and dear.
And oft her bosom heaved a sigh,
AS from the open door
She watched the little ones at play,
As she had played of yore.
She knew that cankering cares would come
To spoil the castles fair;
Their little hearts were building high,
For they were built in air.
She had been young. and children dear
She called her own, had crept
Behind her chair to ''hide and seek''-
No wonder that she wept;
For they were dead, and these brought back
The memory of their tones,
And drew those tears to bathe the flowers.
In memory's garden sown

Dreams.

Dreams can be procured by whispering
IN the ears when person is asleep. One
OF the most curious, as we'll as authentic
examples of this kind, has been referred
to by several writer's. / find the particu-
lars in paper by DR.. Gregory, and they
were related to him by gentleman who
witnessed them.
The subject of it was an officer in the
expedition to Louisburgh, 1858, who had
the popularity in so remarkable degree,
that his companions in the transport were
IN the habit of amusing themselves at his
expense. They could produce in him any
kind of dream, by whispering into his
ear, especially if this was done by a
friend, with whose voice he was familiar
At one time they conducted him through
the whole progress of quarrel, which
ended in duel; and when the parties
were supposed to be met, a pistol was
put into his hand, which he fired, and
awakened by the report. On another oc.
casion they found him asleep on the ton
of locker, or bunker in the cabin. when
they made him believe he had fallen over
board. and exhorted him to save himself
by swimming. They told him that a
shark was pursuing him. and entreated
him to dive for his life. He instantly did
so, with such force as to throw himself
entirely from the locker, upon the cabin
foor, by which he was much bruised, and
awakened of course.
After the landing of the army at Louis
burgh, his friends found him asleep in
his tent, much annoyed by the cannonad-
ing. They then made him believe that
ne was engaged, when be expressed great

fear, and showed an evident disposition
to run away. Against this they remon-,
strated, but at the same time increased
his fears by initiating the groans of the
wounded and dying: and when he asked,
as he often did, who were down, they
named his particular friends. At last
they told him that the man, next himself
in the line had fallen, when instantly he
sprang from his bed, rushed out of his
tent, and was aroused from his danger
and his dream together by falling over
the tent ropes. A remarkable circum-
stance in this case was that after these
experiments, he had no distinct recollec-
ton of fatigue; and used to tell his friend
that he was sure he was playing some
trick upon him. A case entirely similar
in its bearing is related in Smellie's Nat
ural History, the subject of which was
medical student in the University of Ed
inburg.
A singular fact has been observed in
dreams which are excited by noise, name
ly that the same sound awakens the per-
sons, and produces the dream, which ap-
pears to him to occupy a considerable
time. The following example of this has
been repeated to me: A gentleman dream
ed that he had enlisted as soldier, join,
ed his regiment, deserted, was apprehend-
ed, carried back, tried, condemned to be
shot and carried out for execution. After
the usual preparations, gun was fired;
he awoke with the report, and found that
a noisein the adjoining room had produced
both the dream and awakened him. The
same want of notion of time is observed
in dreams from other causes.
DIR. Gregory mentions gentleman who,
after sleeping in damp place, was for a
long time liable to feeling of suffocation
whenever he slept in lying posture, and
this was always accompanied by dream
of skeleton, which grasped him violent
ly by the throat. He could sleep in
sitting posture without any uneasy feel
ing; and after trying various experiments,
he at last had sentinel placed beside
him, with orders to wake him whenever
he sunk down. On one occasion he was
attacked by the skeleton, and long
struggle ensued before he awoke. On find
ing fault with his attendant for allowing
him to lie so long in such state of suf-
fering, he was assured that he had not
lain an instant, but had been awakened
the moment he began to sink. The gen.
! tleman after considerable time, recovered
from the affection. -.

While he thus spoke, he rummaged in
his pockets and drew out some francs,-
:" This is all | have; It's very little: but
tell me where you live, and tomorrow
"Not a farthing," interrupted they.
with one voice; and one of them added,
"Stop bit, let me talk to my COM
rades."
They stepped aside"for a moment:
followed them with my eyes, and saw
that they listened to their companion
with emo ion.
''We are all of a mind" said he, re-
turning with them: eyes, my friend, if
we have been serviceable to you, you also
have been the cause of our good fortune
it seems to me that we ought to share
with you what heaven has sent us through
your means. My companions think so
too, and we are going to divide it into
four equal shares"
The porter would have demonstrated,
but his voice was drowned by the accla-
nations of the spectators.
Generous fellows 20
"Much good may it do you ~
"The same luck to you!' resounded
from every mouth.
There was not one present but seemed
as happy as if he or she were about to
participate in the contents of the box
The money was divided, and, in spite
of his excuses, the porter was forced to
take his share
The generous divers went their way:
the crowd began to disperse: but the
porter still fingered, and I had the Gu
riosity to remain, in order to watch his
movements. He approached the little
violet-girl.
"Ah my DEAR" cried he, "what do
| not owe you +! but for you it had been
all over with me. My wife, my little
ones, must thank you"
Ma fol it is not worth mentioning.
Would you have had me stand by and
see you drown yourself!"
"But your courage-your strength
could one have expected it from so young
girl !''
"Ah! there is no want of strength
where there is good will"
"And nobody ever had more of that.
Give me six Of you boquets, my dear my
children are so fond of violets, and never
have they priced any as they will do
these"
She twisted a bit of thread round six of
her fairy nosegays, and presented them
to him. He deposited them carefully in
his bosom, and slipped something into
her hand; then without waiting to hear
the acknowledgements which she began
to pour fourth, took to his heels as if his
bag had been made of feathers.
The girl looked after him with pleasure
sparkling in her eyes.
"What will you take for the rest of
your nosegays?' said |, going up to her.
Whatever you please to give me-"
cried she, with vivacity; 'for that good
mans money will burn up my pocket till
| get home to give it to my mother. Oh
how glad will she be to have all that, and
still more SO when she knows why it has
been given me.
The reader will hastily believe that my
purchse was speedily made: the good
girls purse was something the heavier
for it : and had the pleasure of thinking
that [ contributed, in a small degree, to
reward the goodness of heart which she
had SO unequivocally displayed.
She hastened home with her little trea-
sures, and returned to my lodgings to
put my violets into water, promising N.Y.
self, as did so, to be frequent custo-
mer to the little nosegay girl of the Pont
