A LESSON FROM THE BIRDS.

\ gentleman observed in a thicket Of
bushes near his dwelling, collection Of
brown thrushes, who for several days at
tracted his attention 10y their loud cries
and strange movements. At length Gu.
riosity vas so much excited that he de-
termined TO see if he could ascertain the
cause Of the excitement among them.
On examining the bushes he found a
female thrush, whose wing was caught in
a limb in such way that she could not
escape. Near 10y was her nest, contain.
ing several half grown birds. On retiring
little distance, company Of tbrushes
appeared, with worms and other insects in
their mouths, which they gave first 10 the
mother, and then TO her young ones she
in the mean While cheering them in their
labor of love with song Of gratitude.
After watching the interesting scene
until curiosity was satisfied, the gentle.
man released the poor bird, when she
flew to her nest with a grateful song to
her deliyerer, and her charitable neigh.

NATIONAL HOTEL POISON,

We are much surprised to see so many
conductors of the press still pretending not
TO be able to explain the cause OF the Sc
we're sickness which attacked those per
sons, from all parts Of the country, who
boarded at the National Hotel in Wash.
ington City, about the 4th of March. We
have no doubt that every ore was poison
cr with arsenic, and if our brethren of
the press will consult any medical work
in reference TO the symptoms produced by
this deadly poison, they will find the
symptoms Of every victim there described.
Any one, either in or out Of the medical
profession, who will deny these facts, will
at once prove to the world that he knows
nothing OF the action of this poison upon
the human structure.
We hope some person will collect the
names OF the victims, and publish the list
which, if nothing more, may act as a
consuming fire. upon the conscience of
that fiemd in human form, who admins
tered the poison.
That this wholesale murder was for the
purpose Of killing President Buchanan,
there is no doubt, and it is to be hoped
that the PerPetrator will yet be detected.

to the Baltimore Sun, is positive testimo.

THE CONSIDERATE DOCTOR.

a poor girl who had just recovered
i'orn IA spell Of sickness, gathered up her
scanty carnimgs, and went to tie doctors
office to settle her bill. just at the door.
the lawyer Of tic place passed into the
Office before on a similar errand.
"WoIl, DOCTOR" said he, ~ believe AIN
indebted to you, and should ike to know
how much"
Yes said the doctor, Il attended upon
You about a week and what would YOU
charge me tor weeks services or what
do YOU realize, on al average, fora weeks
services l'
90" said the lawyer, "perhars seventy.
five dollars"
Very well then, MS my time and pro
iesslon are as valuable as yours, your bill
!, scventy-fvc dollars"
The poor gr's Aeart sank within her,
for should her bIlI 10 anything like that
how could she ever pay ili The lawyer
paid his Till, and passed ont, when the
doctor turned to the young woman, aud
kindly inquired her Grand.
81 came" said she, "to know wha; |
owe you, although know not as can
ever pay you
81 attended you about week" said
the doctor.
"lcS, sir
"What do you get per weekr
"Seventy-fve cents said she.
'ls that all Z"
"Tes, sir"
Then your IilI is seventy five cents"
The poor girl paid him thankfully, and
went back with light heart.
An old and rich man of my acquan.
tance was once remarking to the doctor
that no one earned their money so easily.
The doctor reminded him of many losses
incurred, as they must visit the poor as
well as the rich.
"WelI," said my old friend, "you must
charge the rich more, and then You can
afford to lose by the poor"
Not many weeks after the old man was
obliged TO employ the doctor for some
time. At the last visit his bill was pre-.
sented, and strongly resisted as enormous
ly high.
But" said the doctor, "you know
what you told me, and have only fol-
lowed your advice"
Not word was said, but the amount
was Immediately paid.

NECESSITY OF EXERCISE,

The benefit Of exercise To- those whose
occupation does not lead them to make
any physical exerton, cannot be too highly
estimated. The body must undergo a
certain amount Of fatigue TO preserve its
natural strength, and maintain all tie
muscles and organs in proper yigor. The
activity equalIzes the circulation, aud dis
tributes the blood more efiectually through
every part; Cold feet, or a chill any
where, shows that the circulation is Ian.
guild there. The muscles during exercise
press on the veins aud help forward the
current 10y quickening every vessel into
activity. The valves in the heart are in
this way aided in the work of sending on
this stream, and relieved Of a certain
amount Of labor. VI hen exercise is neg
lected, the blood gathers too much around
the central region, and the oppression
abou, the heart, difficulty Of breathing.
lowness Of spirits, anxiety and heaviness,
numerous aches and stitches, are evidence
OF this stagnstion. People are afraid 10
take exercise because they fancy they
want breath, and feel weak. But the
very effort would free the heart from this
burden, by urging the blood forward to
the extremi,ies il would ease their breath.
ing by hberating the lungs from the same
superabundance il would make ihe
frame feel active and light, as the effect Of
equallzed circulation and free action.

CIRCUMsTANCIAL EVIDENCE,

The following remarkable case of cir

In tie reign of Queen Elizabeth. n
man was tried before Judge DYER. and a
jury, FOR murder. The evidence brouoht
forward on that occasion, was wholly cir.

and consistent throughout, aud apparent

forthwith s ent an officer 10 ascertain the
cause of their de.ay. His official soon
returned with the iniimaton That the
jury had not agreed on their verdict
After further discussion on the part of
the jury, they ut last entered the court
with he intelligence that they had not
agreed on their verdict. The Judge, sur.
priSed at THIS, as the evidence was so
clear against the prisoner, sent them
back again to reconsider the evidence {;
but they returned a7secuud time with Il
verdict not guilty against the prisoner.

refused either 10 record the verdict or
discharge the jury. Ile sen, them back

Deut. xxxiv. 6.
BY Nebo's lonely mountain,
On this side Jordan's wave,
In vale in the land of Moab,
There lies lonely grave.
And no man dug that sepulchrc,
And no man saw it e'er;
For the angels of God up,urncd the sod,
And laid the dead man there.
That was the grNndcst funeral
That ever passed on earth,
But 20 man heard the tramping,
Or saw the train go forth.
Nolselessly rs the daylight
Comes when the night is done,
And the crimson streak on oceans check
Grows into the great sun;
Noi>eIessly as the spring time
Her crown OF verdurc wcavcs,
And all the trees on all ;he hills
Open their thousand leaves;
So, without sound of music,
Dr. voice of them that wcpt,
Silently down from the mountains crown,
The great procession swept.
Perchapcc the bald old eagle
ca grey Bc.hpcot's height,
Omi Of his rocky cyric,
Looked on the woudgous Sight.
Perchancc tho lion stalking
Sill shuns that halluw'd spot;
For beasts and birds have seen and heard
That which man kuoNcth not.
But when the warrior dlcih,
His comrades in the war,
With arms reversed and mu.llcd drum,
Follow the funeral car.
They show the banners taken,
They tell bis battles won,
And after him lead his mastcrlrss stcrd,
While peais the minute gun.
Amid the noblcst OF the land
Men lay the sage to rest,
Aud give the bard an honor'd place
with costly marble drest)
In the great minister transcpt,
Where lights like glories fall,
And the sweet choir sings, and the organ
rings
Along the emblazoned wall.
This Was the bravest warrior
That ever bucklcd sword;
This the most gifted Poet
That ever brcathd word;
And never earth's philosopher
Traced with his golden pen
On the deat HESS page truths half SO sage
AS he wrote down for men.
And had he not high honor!
The hillside for his pail,
To lie in state while angels wait
With stars for t"pers tall;
And the dark rock pines, like tossing
Fiumcs,
Over his bier TO wave,
And Gods own hand, in that lovely land.
To lay him in the grave.
In that deep grave without name,
Whence his uncoflin'd clay
