A Faithful Girl.

A case of woman's devotion has recent
ly been brought to our knowledge, which
certainly equals anything that we ha C
ever met with in the realms of romance.
The circumstances occurred in this city
and are perfectly well authenticated
While the small pox was raging here a
few weeks ago, young man employed
in store on Lake street was seized with
the disease. 1t was of course improper
for him to remain there and the people
with whom he lived, who were distant
relatives oil his. refused to permit him to
stay in their house. The result was that
he was taken to tn pest house.
Il SO happened jlha, he was engaged to
be married 10 q most cstinabc and
a.niab.e young lady. No sooner did she
hear Of his condition than she determined
a, once that she would nurse him. She
underwent vaccinations, and then went
where ,hey had taken her be;rothed, to
the pest house. Here she found him
alone, sick, wfetchel, deserted by all the
world. Aud here she remained like a
ninisterng angel, waiting beside his bed
OF pain, soothing his distresses and attend
ing to his wants. He died. But how
consollng must have been his last mo-
ments.
Though all the world, had forsaksn
him, she, whom he. had loved better
than all the world remained faithful to the
last Her hand it was that smoothed his
pillow: her eyes still beamed upon him
with mournful but undated affection into
her ear he poured his last words of love
of sorrow, and hopes that in this world
might never be fulfilled.
1t recalled to our mind, when we heard
i, the words that Bulwer puts IN the
mouth of one Of his characters ITO be
watched and tended by the one we love
who would not walk blind and barefooted
over the world 1"-Ch,cdgo Tribune.

The last intelligence from Australia
really look as if 4 revolution is begun. -
The difficulty which began there more
than year ago in regard to the license
fee which the d,ggers Of gold were COM
pelled to pay the government, has broken
out afresh, and a. BallaaIat the military
have been attacked and beaten when
endeavorlng to inforce the license. About
1000 Of the aiggers assembled afterwards
and burnt their licenses, resolving no, to
submit to the system any longer. They
also resolved to resist the enforcement, of
the law, and to protect all who were ar
rested. The "Reiorm League" as these
persons styled themselves, also protested
against the presence of soldiesr among
them. BY the las. accounts the Colonial
authorities were endeavoring TO enforce
the laws, and had ordered the whole
military and police force to Ballaarat.--
An outbreak also took place a, Bres.
wick's Creek, and strong party Of dig.
gers occupied the road to Melbourne ,e
rescue the prisoners. The military force
sent to the diggings was nearly thousand
men, with four field pieces.
Australia is in the incipient stages o.
revolution and will soon be sitting up fo'
herself, unless the colonial government
enlarges the representative element, ant
substitutes equal rights for oppressive
axation of labor and brute force.

New York Herald publishes a circular
signed J. w. Barker, the President OF

For the Advertiser.
Thoughts Of Home.
Night shadows rest upon the plains,
While sunlight crowns the towering hill
The laborer seeks his home again,
Ana busy toll its tumult still
The tired children cease to roam
And my sad spirit longs for home.
Ny HON beside the rushing stream,
Whose waves throughout the livelong day,
Leap up too kiss the runs glad beam,
Or with the dancing shadows play;
To thee my heart at evening turns,
AMI once again to see thee yearns.
1t is the hour when brothers meet
With sisters around the happy hearth.
When parents dea, their children greet
And v"ices rise in gentle mr,h,
No parents voice falls on my ear.
Kindred nor sisters have near.
Tell me sweet wind that plays
Around my brow and with my hair,
If they are singing gladsomc lays,
In the glad circle gathered there,
In peace will they lie down to night
To wake with joy at morning light.
As I sit masing here alone,
And watch tina evening shadows fall:
And think upon the years now gone.
Like setting sanh.ams from the wall
NJ spifit sinks beneath its woe
Until hot tears mine eyes oerfiow.
Homs, Ho.ae. aha eaa thaa plaso forget

SIXTH SENSE OF THE BAr.-The AMI

SIXTH SENSE OF THE BAr.-The ami
NAL senses are Usually considered TO be
five in number, viz smelling. hearing,
seeing tasting and feeling, But besides
these, bats are endowed with sixth
sense, which nables them, during night,
to avoid all obstacles without the aid OF
sight. The celebrated naturalist, Spal-
lanzani, long since found by experiment,
that bats deprived Of sigh, by having wax
placed o,er their eyes, still avoided OBJ
s,acles as perfectly as they did with their
entire sight. More recently. others have
confirmed the truth Of this curious Tact by
various aud repeated trials, aud ii has
also been found that the destruction OF
hearing. as well MS Of sight made no diff
ference in TINS respect =; but that witheut
exercise Of either of these senses, the bat
would fly through apcr,ures just large
enough to admit it without touching. -
In the course of these experiments, nu-
merous small threads were drawn across
the room at various angles, and still the
bat flew abou, in every possible direction
never touching one Of them, even by nc.
cident. NJ. Jardine supposed that this
sense was lodged in the expanding sense
OF the nose, bu. that several species wan
this peculiar nerve. Others had believed
that the peculiaritiy in question depended
on the vibration Of the air, which, strik
ing against the impediment, returned a
sound by which the bat was warned of III
direction. But since it was found ,he
deafness made no difference in the facts
naturalsts have proposed no theory t.
account for this curious circumstance.
