AN INCIDENT IN OUR HONEYMOON

I do not know if any one else will think
the story | am going to try to write down
as interesting as we-that is, John and I
did. | will try to tell it in the simple
words in which it was told to us But first
| must say that we heard it during our
honeymoon, which we were spending at a
cottage in the beautiful park of Lord -;
| shall call him Dimdale The cottage was
situated in wild and lonely part of it, and
the deer used to come up close to the door
and lie under the fine old oaks, through
whose branches the sun glimmered on the
soft warm turf and clumps of young fern.
And how the birds sang ! for it was the
beginning of May, and fine hot weather.
But to come at once to the story.
In one of our walks we had made ac-
quaintance with the clergyman, Mr.. Nor
ton, an old man, with placid, sweet smile,
and long, snow-white hair, who, somehow,

and courage, and none Of the disposition of
the poltroon and the coward, he was SEN
fenced by this unjust Judge to sixty days
confinement in the county Jail, and to pay
fine of six hundred dollars and the costs
of the prosecution. And to-day, he, a
white man, an American citizen, is in the
common jail, serving out his time, for do
ing nothing other than giving succor to an
oppressed and outraged brother.
Mr.. Charles I'll. Langston, the other per-
son who has been tried, convicted, and SEN
fenced, needs no eulog gistic words from my
humble pen. He is widely known as a
devoted and laborious advocate of the
claims Of the negro to liberty and its at
tendant blessings. Indeed, his entire life
has been free offering to the Anti-Slavery
cause. Discreet and far-seeing, uncom-
promising and able, he has labored most
efficiently in behalf of the slave and the
disfranchised American. But in no posi-
ton has he demeaned himself with greater
propriety and wisdom, with greater deci-
sion and courage, and with greater eficien-
cy, than when he stood before Judge Will
son, and, as the representative of the Ne
gro Race, in the most beautiful and pow
erful tones, told him why sentence should
not be pronounced upon him. He spoke

three classes were in Oberlin, trembling
alike for their safety, because they well
knew their fate, should those men-hunters
get their hands on them
In the midst of such excitement the
18th day of September was ushered in
day ever to be remembered in the his
tory of that place, and l presume no less
in the history of this Court-on which
those men, by lying devices, decoyed into
a place where they could get their hands
on him-I will not say slave, for l do
not know that-but man, brother, who
had right to his liberty under the laws
of God, under the laws of Nature, and
under the Declaration of American Inde-
pendence.
8 In the midst of all this excitement, the
news came to us like flash of lightning
that an actual seizure under and by means
of fraudulent pretences had been made

by my Revolutionary father-and | say
this with all due respect to him-and by
his honored associates, that the fundamental
doctrine of this government was that all

has repeatedly laid down the law in this
Court, man is free until he is proven to
be legally restrained of his liberty, and
believed that upon that principle of law
those men were bound to take their pri-
soner before the very first magistrate they
found, and there establish the facts sci
forth in their warrant, and that until they
did this, every man should presume that
their claim was unfounded, and to institute
such proceedings for the purpose of secur
ing an investigation as they might find
warranted by the laws of this State. Now

The ODoR OF YANKEE SANcTITY.-The
people are apt to laugh at funerals epitaphs
are sometimes very comical, but such an obit-
uary notice as this could never have been pro-
duced outside of New England, where wealth
and virtue are synonymous, and next to being
good Christian, man must be 'forehand-
ed" We find 1.-THE obituary-credited to
the Rutland (Vt.l Courier. The reader will
recognize how beautifully it blends the idea of
death, coming like a thief in the night, with
that Of getting together a decent little pile be-
fore he does come HE was native of Low
ell, Mass, an unmarried man, and had by his
own industry accumulated a property OF some
$4,000. We should think his age was few
years less than forty. Let this case encourage
mechanics to industry, economy, and persever-
ance, and at the same time remind us all that
there is an appointed time for man to de- and
that death cometh like thief in the night,
when least expected. "-Cincinnati Gazette.

WARNING TO THE WoRLD.-It is not often
that man is stripped of earthly ties as sum-
marily as Job was. He was an exception to
the general rule. Usually, one tie at a time is
sundered-here tear, and there tear Many
would Course God and die" under an expe-
rience like that of job They can bear sor-
rows once at time but when they come in
avalanches, surging the soul deep in anguish,
they are likely to rebel against the wise Dis
penser. God pities poor human nature here,
and usually sewers only one cord at once. He
sees that it is usually perilous to tear all the
affections up by the roots at once, so he takes
one root at time.
Some years ago we saw large tree remov-
ed from the door-yard of a neighbor. 1t was
very aged, and death was already creeping in
its top. The proprietor designed to remove it
to make way for another, and so he must needs
cut the soil far around, and dig Deep The
shovel was diligently applied, and then the ak,
cutting off large root here and small one
there and thus the work went on, until the
heavy top began to lean. Still it was held by
other roots that hid themselves in the earth.
Again the shovel was applied, and the loose
gravel removed, when yet other roots appear
ed, which were cut in turn, till it was held
only by a single one. One well-aimed blow
severed it, and the old tree came crash
ing down. Who has not seen Chris
tan parent fall in the same manner
His affection, like so many tenacious roots,
hold him there. He loves the world, in conse-
quence. His earthly home has more attrac-
tons than His heavenly. But God takes
child, and thus cuts one root. His heart is
here. God takes another child, and cuts an
other root Thus one after another, his earth
ly ties are broken, till he leans heavenward
His thoughts are often there. His family are
mostly gone thither and better still, his Sa-
yior awaits his coming. AT length the last
blow falls, and the last tie is cut. He cannot
stay longer on the earth ifhe would-he would
not, if he could. Nothing remains to bind
him there He falls like an aged tree, whose
