The RlanT SoRr OLA WIFE


During the late dreadfal tornado
which passed over Mississippi. tearing
ups trees, blowing down houses, and
killing battle an incident occurred
near Paudl'ng, in that State, which is
worthy Of record : a
A young marred couple were alone
in the forest, occupants Of new home
and distant two miles from the near
est pe'gbbor. They hid retired to
rest, and were absorbed in slumber
when the roar Of the hurricane
came like a sonorous wai'ing through
the prmeval trees, and fierce winds
strnck their house, iumhlug the logs,
around and nhout them The lady,
after much effort, succeeded in extr-
eating herself but found, to her mo-
mentary dlsmay, that her husband was
entoubed in the wreck Of their dwell
ling, and Tint It would be impossible
Tor her to relieve bin uDaIded. She
reflected but moment when turning
to her husband, she uttered some
cheering words, and announced her
determination +" 60 IN quest Of assis
lance. Forth she went in the midss
ofthe bowling storm, the winds sing
ing a requiem over the ruin they had
caused. and the stately trees still crash
ing in their fall before the omnipotence
Of tempest. But she needed not tho
danger ; bouyed by strong affection
che moved onward, m incarnation Of
her"ism and self sacrificing love,
through the hurricane taas, and
reached urharmed the residences Of her
neighbar. Assistance was procured,
and her husband restored to as true y
wife as ever ballowed with felIcites
the llfe Of man.
