forged City Comptroller warrants, on which he
raised full fifty per cent. he forged also private
notes to large amount borrowed and received
money from confding clerks, laborers and washer
women; and even went away without paying
the tuition of his children in the common
schools And in these ways he has caused the
ruin of more than two hundred people The
scene at the Comptroller office, on the day after
the discovery of the flight of Meigs, was terrible.
Strong-minded men who had battled successfully
with all their energies to repair former losses by
Hood and fire, and who had struggled on through
the long spell of business depression for the past
year, would rush into the Office, bearing thou
sands of dollars worth of warrants, to ascertain
If they were genuine: their countenances be-
traying the anxiety tiey felt; but when the
damning proof was given that their warrants
their all on earth-were but so much worthless
paper, the agony of the strong man was u fear
tul thing to looks upon, and if Henry Meigs
could have seen it, his body would have no need
to die for his soul to find a hell
These transactions of Megs have given ter
rible blow to the business interests of this COM
munity, destroying confidence, and causing ir-
remcdiable ruin to hundreds of worthy people

thinks very little of this man of sin and
pleasure thinks Of it very little and yet it may
be in this very way that he is engraving the
letters of his own future Judgment on his own
being. No man knows, when in a course of
sinful or sensual indulgence, no young man, in
a career of sensual passion, no middie-aged man,
in the persuits of ambition, or the greedy grasp
of gain. what lines he is tracing as with thepen
of diamond, or burning in, as with pen of
solid fire, upon his spiritual being, hidden per-
haps now, but by and by to come out, and to
be read through eternity. 1t is said that the
wicked shall be driven away in his wickedness; (;
and 50 the wicked soul may be launched into
eternity, scared and scorched, in the sight Of
all the universe, with the deep-burnt engraving
Of his own sins, SO that no book Of Judgment
would be needed to read them out Of, either to
himself or to angels.-Dr. Cheever.

VoLrAIRE's DEATH The awful details of
Voltarie's death are too well known to need re-
petition. Tho following authentic anecdote
may be interesting =
Some years ago, an individual well known
and highly respected in the religious world,
narrated in my hearing the following incident.
In early life, while with college companion
he was taking q tour on the continent, at Paris
his friend was seized with an alarming illness.
A physician of great celebrity was speedily
Summoned, who stated that the case was crit
ical one, and that much would depend upon a
minute attention to his directions. AS there was
no one at hand upon whom they could place
much reliance, he was requested to recommend
some confidential and experienced nurse.
Ho recommended ono, but added, " You may
thing yourself happy, indeed, should you be
able to secure her services; but she is so much
in request among the higher circles here that
there is little chance of finding her disengagcd
The narrator at once ordered MS carriage Wen
to her residence, and much to his satisfaction
found her at home. lie briefly stated his crran(
and requested her immediate attendance. Bu

INFLUENCE OF WoMEN.--Senator Houston was
once asked, at large party given By Mr.. Speak
er Winthrop, why he did not attend the usual
places OF public amusement as he had been ac-
customcd to do. His reply was this-let it be
read and remembered by the mothers and daugh-
ters of America -
al make it point" said the honorable SEN
ator, never to visit place where my lady, if
see we're with me, woul Id be unwilling to 60. l
know it would give her pain, as IL christian, to
attend sach places, and will not 80 myseli
where II could not take my WIFE"
. A member of Congress present alluded to his
own wife, and added that there was mutual
unde1 standing between him and her, that they
should each follow the bent Of their own incli
nations in such matters
"That may do for you" responded Mr.
Houston, "but with me it is different from wha
it is with many men, My wife has been thu
making Of mo She took me when was vic
tim to slayeish arpetites; she has redeemed an,
rcgeneratcd me, and will not do that in hel
absence which know would give her pain il

, haste for the carpenters ball o

him in such haste for the carpenters ball OF
twine.
Let down one end of the thread with bit
Of stone, and keep fast hold Of the other,' cried
she to her husband The lttle thread came
waving down the tall chimney, blown hithss
and thither by the wind, but at last it reached
the outstretched hands that were waiting for it.
Tom held the ball of string, while his mother
tied one end of it to the worsted thread. Now
pull it up slowly cried she to her husband and
gradually unwound tho string as the worsted
gently drew it up. 1t stopped-the string had
reached her husband. Now hold the string
fast, and pull it up cried she, and the string
grew heavy, and hardt to pull, for Tom and his
mother had fastened the thick ropsto it. They
watched it gradually and slowly uncoiling from
tho ground, as the string was drawn higher
There was but one coil left. It'had reached
tho top. Thank Godi Tdsnk Godi ex-
claimed the wife. She hid her Gice in her hands
in silent prayer, and trembling, rejoiced. The
rope was up. The iron to which it should be
fastened was there all right; but would her
husband be able to make use of them would
not the terror Of the past hour have SO unnerved
him, as to prevent from taking the necessary
measures for his safety! She did not know tho
magic influence which her few words had exer-
cised over him. She did not know the strength
that the sound of her voice, SO calm and stead
fast, had filled Elm with-as if the little thread
that carried him the hope of life once more, had
conveyed to him some portion of that faith in
God, which nothing ever destroyed or shook in
her true heart. She did not know that, as he
waited there, the words came over him, " Why
art thou cast down, 0, my soul1 and why
art thou disquieted within me! Hope thou in
mel Hope thou in God She lifted up her
heart to God for hope and strength She could
do nothing more for her husband, and her hear
turned to God, and rested on Him as on a rock
There was great shout. He's safe, moth
er, he's safe, cried little Tom Thou st savet
me, Mary said her husband, folding her in hi
arms. 'But what ails thee Thou seem 8
more sorry than glad about it, But Mar,

A RAT SToRY.-The following rat story was
related to US by neghbar, and .,(lt rot ecmc
from source which entities it to the almost cred
it, we should feel somewhat dubious about the
truth OF the matter, but as it is we believe every
word of it
Our neighbor says that he was very much har-
rassed by these animals, and had devised various
plans for their destruction. Among the expedi-
en's employed was barrel placed upright, which
he had prepared by saving hole in the upper
head about six inches square. Bait was put in
this barrel near the bottom, just above few inch
e8 OF water-hoping the rats mightbe induced to
jump in and be drowned
From time to time the delicious morse was Ia
ken away and no rats entrapped Feeling anx-
ious to know by what means this was accomplish
ed, he placed himself in favorable position to
watch progoess. The secret was soon out Sew
leral rats collected one larger than the rest taking
the lead. This one let himself down into the
barrel by clnging TO the edge of the barrel N ca
this was "A smal! augar hole in which he inserted
one OF fore paws, while with the other he clung
to the edge of the larger hole, thereby securing a
firm grip Then another would descend until he
would embrace the first one around the hips, and
so on till perfect chain was formed tail down
ward, reaching to the bait. Then rat which
had held himself in reserve, ran down the cham
and bore away the prize. But the most curious
part of the story is yet to come. Our informant
says that when the bait was brought out, not a
rat ventured to touch it until the chan was unink-
ed, and all were pres mt to share in its disposal

The Marriage Altar.

The late Judge Charlton, in recent elo-
quent address before the Young Mems I4-
brary Association at Augusta, thus sketches
the marriage scene:
/ have drawn for you many pictures of
death let me sketch for you brief but
bright scene of beautiful life. Il is the mar
riage altar. A lovely female, clothed in the
freshness of youth and surprising beauty,
leans upon the arm of him to whom she has
just plighted her faith; to whom she has
just given herself forever. Look in her eyes,
ye gloomy philosophers, and tell me if5ou
dare. that there is no happiness on earth.
See the trusting, the heroic devotion which
lmpels her to leave country, parents, for a
comparative stranger. She has launched
her rratt bark upon a uide and stormy sea-;
she has handed over herhappiness and doom
to another's keeping; but she has done it
fearlessly, for love whispers to her that her
chosen guardian and protector bears a manly
and noble heart. Oh, wo to him that
forgets bis oath and his manhood!
Her dark wing shall the raven flap
Ger the false hearted,
His warm blood the wolf shall lap,
Ere life be parted;
Shame and dishonor sit,
On his grave ever;
Blessings shall hallow it,
Never! oh neYerp
We have all read the story ofthe husband
who, in moment of hasty wrath, said to
her who had but a few months before united
her fate to his, If you are not satisfied with
my conduct go, return to your friends and
your happiness And will you give me
back that which brought you p asked the
despairing wife. Yes replied he, all
your wealth shall 60 with you; covet it
not Alas ! she answered, / thought not
ofmy wealth. spoke Of my devoted love; !;
can you give this back to me?' No! said
the man, as he flung himself at her feet
: No! | cannot restore these, bnt will do
more-I will keep them unsullied and un-
tainted-I will cherish them through my
life and in my death and never again will
| forget that have sworn to protect and
cherish her who gave up to me all she held
most dear
Did not tell you there was poetry in a
woman's look-a woman's word /? See il
here the mild, the gentle reproof Of love-
winning back from It's harshness and rude
ness the stern and unyelding temper of al
angry man! All! if creations fairer Sc,
only knew their strongest weapons, how
many of wedlock's fercest battles would b,
unfought; how much unhappiuess and cold
ness would be avoided.

A Story WITH A MoRAL.-Many years
ago, merchant, worth near a million Of dol
lars, stood upon wharf watching the APP
proach of a rich ship, just arriving in port, Of
which he was the owner. He was elevated
with his good fortune, and looked lofty and
arrogant. A poor seaman, suffering under
grievoas maladies stood near, and having ex-
perieHced how changeful is life, he ventured
to tell the merchant that riches had wings
POOH! said the merchant, there! you
see that diamond ring take from my finger !?
You see me throw it into the river. As
well may you expect ever to see that ring
again, as to see me poor man !"
Some days afterwards the merchant gave
great dinner to his friends. Among the
luxuries provided for the feast, was salmon,
from the river.
The cook happening to open The stomach
of the salmon, found there, to her great sur
prise, the merchants diamond ring! She
carried it to him. His countenance fell, for
he remembered his boastful language.
The dinner was heartless and tedious tc
him. The rich wine only made his thought:
the more poignant. He slept none that
: night. He became an altered man. Iii
specuIations were all unfortunate. Loss sue
: ceeded to loss; and in few years he was
i poor man.
Wealth is the gift of God, and given e
a good purpose. Not to be squandered-
: : not to make the possessor hard Of heart :
y bat to teach him benevolence, to enable hi,
to benefit his fellow men.
