ANEcpoTE OF Ma CHoATE.-At the trial of
the salvage case of the barque Missouri, at
Boston lately the case in which a part Of the
cargo was embezzled by the masters Of the two
vessels on the coast of the Sumatra, one of the
masters was examined as a witness, and dis
closed the plans of embezzlement, and stated
the inducements that were offered 10 him By
the other master. He said that he objected at
first, and told his comrade they would be found
out and convicted, but was overborne by the
assurance given him. Mr.. Choate cross-ex-
amined him strictly, and particularly as to
what the inducements and assurances were
The witness had appearance Of holding back a
little, but at last he said Well, sir, he told
me that if we were found ont, he could get Mr.
Choate to defend US, and he would get US off,

Il was not five minutes nor ten minutes that il
required TO bring the audience back to a sobe,
countenaDce. The counsel on the other side
paid a tribute, in his closing argument, to the
genius of Mr. Choaie, the fame Of which, ex-
tending to the antipodes, was relied upon as
stronger than the law and the evidence.-N

He will not move again
Not hold his little arms out
Nor make that pleasant noise
Nor open wide his tiny hand

Twas little brothers spirit
Which made him laugh and play,
That which you loved you see not.
There's nothing here but clay.
Why do you weep then, mother
You said the other day,
To die was only going home:
Did brother want to stay
viii not God love to see him,
And show him pretty things i!
And if he cries to come to you,
Won't he give him little wings
He has not gone away, child
If we love him with our hearts,
His spirit still will stay with US.
When his little form departs.
II you are good and gentle,
He will always be with you;
And will try to grieve no more,
If you are kind and true.
We'll kiss once more those lips,
Then we will go away,
And God will give us happy thoughts,
If we ask him when We pray.
