In DEBT AND OUT OF DEBT.-Of what
a hideous progeny of i'll is debt the father!
What meanness, what invasions on self
respect, what cares, what double dealing |!
How, in due season; it will carve the frank
open face into wrinkles; how, like knife,
it will stab the honest heart! How it has
been known to change goodly face into
mask of brass; how, with the damned
custom" of debt, has the true man become
a callous trickster A freedom from debt,
and what nourishing sweetness may be
found in cold water; what toothsomeness
IN dry crust; what ambrosial nourish-
ment in hard egg Be sure of it, he
who dimes out of debt, though his meal be
biscuit and an onion, dimes in "The
Apollo" And then for raiment-what
warmth in a thread-bare coat, if the tai
lors receipts be in your pocket; what "
rian purple in the faded waistcoat, the vest
not owed for; how glossy the well-worn
hat, if IT cover not the aching head of a
debtor. Next the homc-swcets, the out
door recreation of the free man. The
street door falls not knell on his heart;
the foot on the staircase, though he live
on the third pair, sends no spasms through
has anatomy; at the rap of his door he
can crow forth "eome in" and his pulse
still beat healthfully, his heart sink not in
his bowels. Sec him abroad. How he
returns look for look with any passenger;
how he saunters; how, meeting an ac-
quaintance, he stands and gossips! But,
then, this man knows not debt-debt, that
casts drug into the richest wine; that
makes the food of the gods unwholosome,
|indigestible, that sprinkles the banquet OF
Lucullus with ashes, and drops SCOT in.
to the soup Of an emperor; debt, that like
the moth, makes valueless furs and vel
vets, enclosing the wearer in a fostering
prison, the shirt of Nessus was shirtnot
paid for;) debt, that writes upon frescoed
halls the handwriting of the attorney; that
puts voice ofterror in the knocker; that
makes the heart quake at the haunted
fre-side; debt, that invisible demon that
walks abroad with man, now quickening
his steps, now making him look on all sides
like hunted beast, and now bringing to
his fsce the ashy hue of death, and the un-
conscious passenger looks glancingly upon
him. Poverty is bitter draugkt, yet
may-and sometimes with adtantage-be
gulped down. Though the drinker make
wry faces, there may after all be whole
some goodness in the cup. But debt,
however courteously it be offered, is the
cup of a syren, and the wine, spiced and
delicious though it be, is poison. The
man out of debt, though with flaw in
his jerkin, crack in his shoeleather, and
a hole in his hat, is still the son ofliber-
ty, free as the singing lark above him; but
the debtor, though clothed in the utmost
bravery, what is he but serf out upon
holiday slave, to be reclaimed at any.

SAD AND SrR ANGE STORY. Mr. Dredgc,,
living about five miles from Weaverville,
in Trinity county, was aroused about mid
night on the 7th of May, by the moaning
of dog at his door. The dog acted so
strangely by signs. as if soliciting Mr.,
Dredge to follow him, that he was induced
to humor him. He according dressed him
self, and the dog led the way up precip-
itous side of mountain, until Mr.. Dredge
was conducted TO- fhe dead body Of wo-
man in snow drift. where she had eyi-
IDENTIFY perishcd. The dog then ferreted
out bundle of clothing that lay by the
side of the body, and there nestled child
about two years old, warm and alive
The body of the woman was nearly naked.
1t was evident that she had stripped her
self to provide sufficient warm clothing for
her child. The sagacity and attachment
of the dog to the sufferers is very remark
able. Mr.. Dredge has adopted both the
child and savior The body of the woman
was decently inferred. 1t is mot yet known
what was the name of the woman.

A HUMAN BEING WITH NOTHING TO
Do:-Most miserable, worthy of most pro-
found pity rs such being The most
Insignificant object in nature becomes a
source of envy. The birds warblo on ovo
ry spray in ecstacy of joy; the tiny fow-
er, hidden from all eyes, sends forth its
fragrance of full happiness; the mountain
stream dashes along with sparkle and
murmer of pure delight The object of
their creation is accomplished, and their
life gushes forth in harmonic work. Oh,
plant! Oh, stream! Worthy of admra-
ton. of worship, to the wreteked idlcr!--
Here are powers ye never dreamed Of
faculties divine, eternal; head to think
but nothing to concentrate the thoughts;
heart to love--but no object to battle
with the living tide of affection; hand to
do-but no work to be done; talents un-
exercised, capacities undeveloped, hu-
man lite thrown away-wasted as water
poured forth in the desert. Birds and
flowers, ye are gods to such mockery of
life. Who can describe the fearful void
of such an existence, the yearning for an
object, the self-reproach for wasted pow
ers, the wearincss of daily life, the loath-
ing of pleasure, of frivolity, and the spirit
ual paralysis, which hinders all response
to human ninterests-when enthusiasm ceas-
es to arouse, and noble deeds no longer
call forth the tear of joy; when the world
becomes blank, humanity a far-off sound,
and no life is left but the heavy, benainb-
ing weight of personal hopelessness and
desolation. Happier far is tho toiling
drudge who coils body and soul into few
shillings that can only keep his family in
a long starvation. He has a hope un-
ceasingly to light him, duty to perform,
a spark Of love within that cannot die: and
wretched, weary, unhumah as life may
be, it is Of royal worth--is separated by
the Unreasonable distance of life and DEATH
from the poor, perhaps pampered wretch
who is cursed for having nothing to do.
