Daughter of Henry CLAW,

Lebanon (Ohio) has about a, 900 inhabit-
ants. This is the residence of Hon. Thomas
Corwin. Il was also the home of some of
Ohio's noblest statesmen. Here lived Jere-
miah Morrow, John Mclean, Francis Dun
leavy, and others whose names have attain
ed wide celebrity The following, reIat-
ing to daughter Of Henry Clay, who lies
buried here, will be read with interest:
The Oldest Baptist burial ground of Leba-
non, presents a tender scene in the life of
the great statesman, Henry Clay A broad
slab has this touching inscription, now al
most iIegible by time;
In memory of Eliza H. Clay, daughter
of Henry and Lucien Clay, who died on the
18th day of August, 1925, aged II years,
during a journey from their residence at
Lexington, in Kentucky, to Washington
City. Cut off in the bloom of a promising
life, her parents, who have erected this
monument, console themselves with the
belief that she now abdes in heaven"
What history of disappointed hopes and
OF the keenest sorrows would the heart life
of most of our great men unfold The
path of glory is one bedewed with tears,
and our great men arrested by the provi-
dence of God in their schemes of earthly
ambition. For six weeks did this great
statesman tarry in Lebanon to watch over
the decline and death of the flower of his
heart and when he had laid his blooming
daughter among strangers, how did he feel
the emptiness of human glory, and the pre-
ciousness of that Christian faith he inscrib-
ed on this table to his daughters memory

CARPET WEAvING-HUMAN SKILL.-In
the course OF description of Lowell, by a
recent visitor, the following description of
the power of human skill is thus described
in relation to carpet loom:
"There is loom, weaving carpet of vari-
able and richest colors, requiring 25 differ
ent colored threads to be woven into the
figure These threads are arranged in shut
ties on either side in upright tiers, or
courses, which are to be thrown across the
lathe after most interviewed and irregular
order as, for instance, first, a tenth, a third,
a fifth, fourteenth, &c. Whenever par
ticul&r thread is required, the shuttle con-
tanning the thread will rise or fall as the
case may be, to the level of the web, and
then shoot across. No hand touches it to
bring threads to their places, at the pro-
per time, and ifanything is wanted to COM
piete the mystery, it is that if thread
breaks or gets out of place, or runs out, the
whole loom stops in an instant

Confession OF a Fugitive CRIMINAL.

Harlow Case, was, as will be remembered
by many Of our readers, Collector of the
port of Sandusky, under President Fillmore,
having been previously Assistant Post
master at Buffalo He maintained a high
social position in both places, and was a
member of the Baptist Church. After his
removal to Sandusky, he was elected Treas
urer of Erie County. In 1852 he ran away
with S34, 900 of the Government money,
taking with him Mrs. Francis, the wife and
daughter of man with whom he boarded
while in Buffalo
The deserted husband gave chase to the
fugitives, following them through several
States, and afterwards California Oregon,
&C., and finally in the island of Malta
There he lost their trace, and returning
home he went to Wisconsin, where he pro-
cured divorce, and now resides. The half
forgotten circumstances of the melancholy
case have lately been revived by the pubG-
cation, before the public, in. the Buffalo
g2aimerciat -AdVertasegs of, solae letters to
Mr. Francis and others, in which the repen-
tant criminal describes the fate of his COM
panions, and his own desolate condition.
He says that Mrs. Francis died of island
fever in Ceylon, in June, 1856. Her last wish
was that her child might be sent home, but
no opportunity offering itself,Case decided to
go to England in the hope of finding some
respectable emigrants who would take the
young girl to her grand parents or father.
A severe storm, however, overlook the YES
sci, and the poor child, already i'll, became
worse and died Her remains were COM
mitted to the sea on the 10th of July, 1858.
Cases letter is written upon shipboard,
the name of the vessel not being given, and
is dated August 20, 1853. 1t concludes
with the following words, after many ex-
pressions of deep penitence for the evil that
he had done:
For obvious reasons, it is not, and can
not be my purpose to speak of any details
or particulars as to the past or the future,
or indeed of myself in any way. l trust
that you may never hear from me again,
and only wish to hope that your future life
may afford you, even you, less of anguish
than the past few years. If my life depends
upon my present health, or my now limited
means, my memory must be blotted out
very soon

Raa- Some birds can sew very well with
their bills and feet. There is one bird that
sews SO well that it is called the taller bird.
Its nest is hid in leaves which it sews to-
gether 1t does this with thread which it
makes itself. 1t gets cotton from the cotton
plant, and with its long, delicate bill and
little feet, spins it into a fine thread 1t
then pierces the holes through the leaves
with It's bill, and passing the thread through
the holes, sews them together. We be-
lieye that in getting the thread through the
holes it uses both its bill and feet.
