successors drew life from the same breast, where
their dying heads were pillowcd.

Safely housed from storm and tempest. Nc
sickness there, no dropping head nor fading
eye, nor weary feet. By green pastures tended
by the good shepherd, the little lambs Of the
heavenly fold.

vincible cords drawing the material soul up

Swedish Journalist Sentenced to Death
and PardOned on the Scafold.-Mr. Lindalh,
the Editor of the FaederLandet, Swedish jour
nal, was recently sentenced to death for having
published an outragou libel on the character f
Henrietta Mendelssohn, prominent Stockholm
belle. A Stockholm correspondent states, in
relation to the young lady:
"Every one knows young Henrietta She is
eighteen years old, fair hair, Of elegant person,
and has eyes of deep blue and of a poetcal ex-
preston. She excels as a writer in prose, as
well as of verses, aud nothing can exceed the
grace and beauty cf her appearance. Before
the SANDER to which we refer poisoned her ex-
istence, she was noted for her animation and
cheerfulness, and was passlonately fond OF
amusement, and especially dancing. Her dane
ing was admirable, her manner bewitching, and
the Swedish dialect that she spoke, gave an ad-
ditional charm TO her conversation. In one
word, she was the flower of the land, and when
the news of the SANDER upon her spread about,
she became the object Of universal sympathy,
the whole odIum of it falling upon the detrac-
tor"
When the day of his execution arrived, July
2, 1859 this gentleman seemed composed, and
said i: al am going to suffer the penalty OF
death, which l dosS Ssve; however, it shall soon
be made evident that, at all events, was not q
coward"
He then gave some of the papers which were
upon his table to the jailer, giving him some
private instructions respecting them and, hav.
ing taken a letter sealed in black from the Bi-
BILE, and concealed it in his breast, he proceeded
with unfaltering steps to the scaffold which wa,
prepared for him. Twelve witnesses required
by the Swedish law to be present on such occa
sions, had already arrived. Lindalh's hand
/. were tied and his eyes bandaged as he arrivet

> tanned his selfpossession, addressing thos
4 around him as follows:
: Farewell, gentlemen. Take care to repor
nv death and my repentance to those who wer
!. familiar with my life."
!. Ascending the fatal platform, he had alrcad

D he felt a pressure, and in moment his eye
ir and hands were set free. Henrietta Mende
