The Trinity journal., 1856-12-13

With snares made of her hair she caught
birds, and with the skins properly prepared,
she made her clothing. Her needles were
neatly made of bone ana cactus thorns ; her
thread was of sinews from the seal. In
these and many other articles found IN her
possession, exhibited much of the native III
genuity she possessed.
Whether she still remembered her own
language or not, will forever remain mys-
terry. She was very gentle and kind espe-
cially to children, and nothing seemed to
please her more than to be near them and
the poor woman would often shed tears
while attempting to describe by signs, her
own little one which had been killed and
eaten by the wldtdogs. The sympathy felt
for her welfare caused the people to supply
her bountlully with everything she needed,
aud very imprudently, allowed her to eat al
most anything she choose, and the result was
that in about six months after her escape
from her lonely exile, she sickened and died,
having, undoubtedly been killed with kind
ness

A Good Parody.

The following is an excellent parody upon the
Burial of Sir John Moore which is going the
rounds of the papers
Not sous had he got-not guinea or note,
And be looked confoundedly flurried
As he bolted away without paying his shot,
And the landlady after him hurried.
We saw him again at dead of night.
When home from the Club returning:
We twigged the Doctor beneath the light
OF the gass lamp brilliantly burning.
All bare and exposed to the midnight dews,
Reclined in the gutter we found him
And he looked like gentleman taking snoose
With his Marshal cloak around him.
The Doctors as drunk as the d. we said,
And we managed shutter to borrow head
We raised him. and sighed at the thought that bis
Would consumedly ache on the morrow.
We bore him home. and we put him to bed,
And we told his wife and daughter
To give him, next morning couple Of red
Herrings, with soda-water.
Loudly they talked of his money that's gone,
And his lady began TO upbraid him;
But little he reck'd. so they let him snore on,
Meath the counterpane, just as we laid him.
We tucked him in. and had hardly done,
When. beneath the window, calling,
We heard the rough voice of son of gun
OF a watchman-' One o'clock 2 bawling.
Slowly and saa!y-we all walked down
From the room in the uppermOst story
A rush light we placed on the old hearhstone,
And we left him alone in his glory

A STRIKING COXFRMATloN OF SCRIPTURE.
One of the most interesting Of the mOnu-
ments of ancient Rome, is the trumphal
arch erected to commemorate the conquest
of Jerusalem by Titus, who after the de-
structon Of the temple, made trumphal
march to Rome, bringing with him long
train of captive Jews, and the spoils, among
which were the sacred vessels of the temple
This procession Is represented in the scnlp-
lures on the beautiful arch, which thus fur
nish an illustration of the Bible no where
else to be found, these being the only repre-
sentations that exist of the sacred vessels,
the table of the shew-bread, the golden can
dlestick with its seven branches and the sill
yer trumpets used by the priests to proclaim
the year of jubilee. The Roman senate and
people little thought when they erected this
monument to Il Geified emperor, that they
were erecting monument to the true God
in the verilication of prophecy and divine
history. A recent traveller says not one OF
the Jews of Rome, of whom there are about
5000, will even at this day pass under the
arch of Titus, although it spans one of the
thoroughfarcS of the city they shun it as a
memorial of the subjugation of their nation
which has never been retrieved, and regard
it with aversion.
