A Singular Occurrence.

Almost everybody has listened with
sadness to the plaintive strains and
saddening words of the old song
.The Misletoe Bough," in which the
story is told Of a young bride who, in
playful hdmor, on her wedding day,
ran to hide from her spouse, and was
found, years afterwards, mouldered to
ashes, in a chest with a spring-lock.
But a San Francisco paper relates
sadder tale which occurred in that city
last month, and one which adds to its
own horror by its reality. 1t says:
GA few days since, we called atten-
ton to an advertisement Of the loss of
a little Spanish girl, answering to the
name Of Ventura, whose agonized
mother was searching throughout the
city for her. After looking for her in
vain for several days, and coming to
the conclusion that the child was dead,
she went to q large trunk in her house,
on Thursday, for the purpose Of pro-
curing some mourning apparel, when
upon opening it, what was the moth
er's horror to see lying there the de-
cayed remnant Of her own beautiful
little child. The trunk had been left
open the day the child was lost, aud it
is supposed that the inquisitive little
one, having seen the dresses inside,
had taken fancy to them, and upon
attempting to procure them, had fallen
into the trunk. The lid closed with
spring, and the little child died with
suffocation. The tales Of romance fall
far short in depicting the agony which
the poor mother felt upon this sad dis.
covery--and the whole story is one
which tends to prove the oft-repeated
saying, that truth is stranger than
fiction. s.1
The Ohio organ, of the temperance reform. (Cincinnati, [Ohio]) 1853-1854, 1854-01-06

So much for the direct effect Of dis
tillery suppression on the farmers
market for his corn. The large size
and weight Of corn-fed pork, with the
increased production consequent on
better profits, would increase the de-
mand for pork barrels, SO that the
cooper would find, at least, as profta-
bic employment as in the making Of
whisky barrels.
As to the economy of a law sup
pressing the sale Of liquor, in which
the farmers and coopers would share
equally with us all. let the criminal re-
turn Of Maine speak--decreased as
they have been beyond the sanguine
expectations Of the friends of the law.
Let her half.emptied jails and poor
houses, and her shortened criminal
court terms testify. Let the firm
maintenance Of the measure by her
cool, fore-sighted people be observed.
/ would advocate no incidental
wrong to any class of our citizens.
The State might embody in her pro-
hibitory law, a provision to ascertain
the actual loss Of distilIers in the ap-
preciation of machinery, &C., and to
pay it from the public treasury She
would be the gamer almost immedi-
ately in a pecuniary view. In view of
the increased comfort. intelligence,
and virtue OF our people, I know no
arithmetic or currency by which to
calculate our gain.

I" THE OH 0AKrN Bucket. WHO
has not been touched by the sweet
pathos Of this beautiful ballad, and
who has not pictured to himself during
its recital many a scene Of country
quietude and happiness 2 Perhaps
its history is not known. IL wan
written by Samuel B. Woodwork,
when joumeyman printer in an Office
situated at the corner Of Chatham and
Chambers streets, New York. Near
by, in Frankfort street, was drinking
shop kept by man named Mallory,
where Woodwork and several par
ticular friends used to resort. One
afternoon the liquor was super-excel-
lent, and Woodwork seemed inspired
by it--for after taking draught, he
set his glass upon the table and smack
ing his lips declared that Mallory's
evdde Vie was superior to any be had
ever tasted "No," said Mallory,
"you are mistaken there was one
thing which, in both our estimations,
far surpassed this, in the way Of drink
ing" What was that ~ asked
Woodwork, obviously. "The pure
fresh cold sCater, that we used to drink
from the old oaken bucket that hung
in the well, after the labors Of the field
on a sultry day in the summer"
/" True-true !" he replied, and short
ly after quilted the place. He imme-
diately returned to the Office, grasped
a pen, and in half an hour /" The Old
Oaken Bucket" one Of the most de-
lightful compositions in our language,
was ready in manuscript to be en-
balmed in the memories Of succeeding
generations.
Alas ! that its gifted author should
have filed a drunkard's grave
