We have a full account OF the hanging
OF the man Maybery, by NIB at James
vile, Wisconsin, last week. Ii apJ ears
that the prisoner had been found guilty by
Judge Doolitlc, but the law only prescribes
imprisonment for life. The sheriff under
took TO remove the prisoner from the Court
House to the Jail, but he with his posse had
scarcely got out of the Court House, wh, n
the cry arose "hang him, "hang him.
The offic-rc were then completely over
powered by the crowd, the prisoner seized,
a rope placed around his neck, and not
withs,anding his awful shrieks and pray
ers, they dragged him TO cluster of trees
and hung him ill dead A ban Of three
hundred men had been organised to execute
the deed. The greatest excitement pre-
vaded Rock River for over one hundred
miles.

g NV Birth. day !r--what different sound
That word had In my youthful ears 70
And how, each time the day comes round
Less end less white its mark appears
whea frst our scanty years are told,
II seems like pastime TO grow old;
And, as Youth counts the shining links
That Time around him binds so fast,
Pleased With the task, he little thinks
How hard that chain will press at last
Vain was the man, and false as vain,
" no said, "Were he ordained to run
HIS long career Of life again,
He would do all that Ee had done"
An It's no. thus the voice that dwells
In sober birthdays speaks to me-
Far Otherwise time II tells
LaEiSh.d unwiSely, careleSsly;
OF counsel Knocked Of talents, made
HAPPY for high and pure designs,
But OF, like lsraels incense, laid
Upon unholy, earthly shines;
Of nursing many wrong desire;
Ofwandtring after Love too far,
And taking every meteor lire,
That crossed my pathway, for his star;
All this IL tell and could trace
The imperfect picture DER again,
With power to add, retouch, etface,
The lie bit and shades, the JOY and pain.
How little of the past would STAY
How quickly all Should met away,
All, but that freedom of the mind,
Which hath been more than wealth TO me
Those friendships in my boy hood twined,
And kept til now u changingly;
And that deer home thai saving AK
" here 4 owes true light AZ last I'ye found,
Cheering within when all grows dark,
And cOmfOTtess, and stormy, round!
