Lovely and afectionato in life, gentle and
Submissive in death
There is a rest, an endless rest,
Beyond lifa's troubled man ;.
Where ransomei spirits never taste
The cup of woe again.
There Is rest where death nor sin
Can cast wi,heriur blight;
Where sickness ne'er can enter IN,
But all is pure and bright.
Yet do We mourn the early dead.
When ties ST. dear are broken;
Off are nUr tears Of sorrow she'd,
Recalling words last spoken.
Tha, loved one dear of whom we speak,
This rest has nov o5S:s1n,l;-
D,you fond parents wish her back
70 this vain world again!
An no, You would not Cali her back,
To suffer here again
81 want to 90 to heaven she SAID,
There shall know no pain ~
Lacina's gone and left her friends,
la anguish here to mourn;
Bat God in his wise Providence,
Saw fit to call her home.
Twas in the M Urn Of life yon see,
That she was calel away
Disease had se,zel her mortal frame -
Sac could no longer stay.
Now her kind parents tried in vain,
Her precious life to save;
Bu, God had sealed her for his own,
He took bat what he gave,
Although 50 vonn-, she knew iva, God
Her body did atfiict,
And oft she said ,sthe Lord | love,
lis liam .ha. makes me sick.
As friends stood weeping round her bed,
Ard watching her distress,
Her feeble arms would round them fold
By this her love express
Lucina now the crown has Won,
She dwells among the best
Her pam and suHtrings all are done,
Her aching heads Il, rest.
There she will need no earthly aid,
No parents anxious care,
No light Of sun to be her guide,
For nj hits excluded there.
ANIL now she walks the golden streets,
Where Tiers no shade of gloom
AMI roves amid the pleasant fields,
Where flowers forever bloom,
Safe in the Paradise Of God,
Transplanted by his care,
And watched by anseIs-that sweet bud
Unfolds new beauties there.
Her fragrance cheered us but an hour
Deaths chill her petals closed,
And bure her to that heavenly bower,
To bloom by Sharon's rose,
Kind parents dear, o, do no, grieve
God took but what was given =
Then while on earth may You prepare,
To meet with her in heaven.
Brothers and sisters and her friends,
With you she lived in peace
Prepare to meet Lucna in,
Tha, heavenly world of bliss.
In heaven she waits to join the ones,
She left as mourners here,
And greet them where united friends,
Will Shed no parting tear.
Then can we wish her back again -,
She's found the promised rest
No strife renew with sin and pam,
She is supremly blest.
Now let US seek that long repose,
And crave our SINS forgiven,
That we with her, when lite shall close
May taste the Joys of Heaven.

Amputating a Leg.

We don't knew where we have been more
shocked than in perusing the following
1t occurred in st. Lawrence county, and is
given on tie authority "of gentleman of
undoubted veracity;"
"a young man addicted to Incorporate
habits during one Of his periodical "sprees"
took a sudden notion to pay visit to his
''sweetheart." On the evening alluded TO
the young lady and female associate were
the only occupants of the house where she
resided.
"About ten O'Clock in the evening the
young man arrived at The house consiIera :
| bly, worse from the use of beverages His
strange manner in approaching the door
excited the suspicion Of the young ladies',
who suppysed the house was attacked by
robbers lie knocked at the door and de-
| manded admission; buthi voice not being
recognized, from the thickness Of his tongue
The ladies' refused to comply with his de-
mand.
"Determined to force m entrance, he
commenced series of assaults upon the
blrred and bolted door by kicking and
pounding. After number Of desperate
kicks. the panel of the door gave way, ant
the leg of the besieger went through the
aperture, and was Immediately siezed by
|
one Of the ladies, and drnly held, while The
other, armed with q saw, commenced the
work Of amputation!
"The grasp was firmly maintained, and
the saw vigorously piled, until the leg va:
completely severed from the bodyl
"With the loss of his leg the INTOXICATED
wretch fell upon his back, and in that con
dtion lay the remainder of the night.
''In the meantime the ladies were fright
ened almost to death, With the dawn OF
morning the revelation was made that oae
OF the ladies had participated in the ampu
tation of the les of her lover.
"Thc wrctched man was still alive
His friends were Immediately sent fer, and
he was conveyed to his home, where wit!
proper treatment, he gradually and mirac-
ulously recovered, and is now alive ant
we'll.
"We hardly credited !" says the editor o
the Journal from which we quote, "the lat
ter part of the story, and cou!ended that
the man must have 5leN TO death on the
spot, insisting, indeed that it could not b.
otherwise. But we were mistaken. "THs
