An DER True Tale.

4 few afternoons since, IN walking down
Apollo street, our attention was arrested by
an humble funeral procession passing slow
ly W to the Lafayette Cemetery. 1! was
o#c carriage only. and It's occupants were
iecently dressed man and woman-evdent-
Is husband and wife--h3ld;ng between them
n d,m!nuy!ye white cvfia-that of child
at,ont three years old Both looksd pale and
care-worn; the woman weeping sllent!y-
the N IN, however, with stern expression
about thc brow. eyes and mouth, that showed
what efforts he was making to retain DIS
c3mposucc Two days after, about the same
hour, wc again saw the same sad procession
the same m9uraers--only those two attic
led beiugs--and resting on their laps tiny
aYffin. evileatiy that OF babe.
The woman this time bad hagsard ex'

she egIdcutly saw nothing Ut what passed
around her. She was 10 al likelihood un'
conscious of even the extent OF her own be-
reavement. The misery she had undergone
! had oyer-burthoned her mental faculties;
they we're strained almost beyond endurance.
Sae ilni 30 tears to shed; lie was evidently
! ni tiereut TO her.
Toe man, on the other hand, appeared to
/ be overwhelmed with grief. Gone the firm
com pressure Ut the lips, the almost fierce
gaze OF the eyes, the fixed frown OF the
. br51s. The father bent down on the LITTLE
white box that seemed almost q toy, SO small
was il. lis arms were stretched over It,
Bis face ie.ncd on it; it seemed as /! be were
trying to grasp and nold to his bosom, and
drag from the tomb, the cold form Of BIZ
babe. 1t was, doubtless, the darling of ths
house he thus embraced; it was perhaps, TOO
tho last Of Tic little ones Of the house.
How de,0iate must he tue hearth where
little children were aud whore they are nc

The farming interest, too, must feel, itii las
not already felt, the force OF the shocS. NJ
nv of those who have been thrown out o: on
ploymeut, in the way Indicated, have been
compelled to resort to agricultural pursuits
as a means of living. Instead, therefore, oi
being the consumers Of agricultural pro-

as consequence, the home market has Seen
injured. 1t must be obvious 10 rejecting

soil, aud decrea-e iu the copsunp'lon OF the
same, must to some extent injuTe the farmer.
