Dreaming, dreaming ever dreaming,

Dreaming ever. dwelling ever
On hat misty shados sho e,
Dwelling % the Fancy castles,

All that ooudteous dream-land o'er.
Dreaming OF a glorious sorl-life, |..
Unto high aspirings given, ....
Aud $. 'ur"led with nv ca IN chains,

Then dwelt within that Soul-life
As the Angels dwell in Heaven.
Dreaming Of b'issfnl Love-laud, .
And a bear.-home, o how IA r ..r.
Where the eyer-beaming i.ove-light
Chased the shadows OF despair,
And the long unanswered lopgings

On that radiant. love-iit shore.
Where my young hea - wild devotion,
Found an idol TO adore;
And my soul was thri ling, SLING,
Wild JOY unknown before.
Thus dreamed, joyous stranger,
To these heart-coo >uming fears:
Andmethoucht my jov-dream frightened
All twas r,ir"owed back by tears, a.. .
Waiting ~ the dark recesses
Ofthe swift approaching wears.

Seven years after that wealthy man en-
the political arena and was presented to .
caucus as an applicant for a Congressional
nomination. The principal of the caucns
held his peaee-he heard the name and his
tory of the applicant, who was member of
the church, and one of the most respectable

was tie and he cast negative, thereby de-
feating the wealthy applicant, whom he met

Speak not harshly,-much OF care
Every human heart must bear;
Enough Of shadows sadly play,
Around the very suniest way,
Enough efsorrows dsrkly lie,
Yelled within the merriest eye,
BY thy childho DDS gushing tears
Blythe grief Of after years.

Add not to another's woe ..-. ....
Speak not harshly much of sin
sDwelleth every heart within, .

Many a wayward passion dwells.

by the gifts to error lent
BY the wrong thou didst not shun,-
BY the good thou hast not done,-
with . lenient spirit scan
The weakness Of thy brother man Hs
Think not that he doth not feel
That his soul is cased in steel;
Though no passion fires his eye,
Though he hears without reply;
Or 4 acold and careless smile,
Lingers on the lip the while;
Many bitter pang doth pride,
Or Christians patience hide;
That be bears unmnrmurinsly
Offers no excuse for thee.
Speak not harshly, there may yet
Come an hour OF mild regret,
When with deep and bitter wailing,
Aad with anguish unavailing,
Thou, beside thy dying friend,
May for pardon loSly bend.
Do not act iha. thou wilt rue
In the moment Of adiue,-

He proceeded in that inhuman strain, sec
ondcd by nearly every one present, for the
Squire was powerful, and few dared t
dsp,ase him. The youth felt keenly hi
desolate situation, and casting his eyes aroun,
the group, and in a tone of deep an ,iety
inquired:
as there none who viii receive m, ~
/ "Ycs, ! will.'' cried man among tht
crowd; yes poor, sick stranger, will shell

81 Know not whether you are deserving bu

IN sickness and in want; and for the sake
of hi n who died for the guilty, If not fol
your own SAKE, will be kind to you, poor
stran rer.' .a.....
Th, man who stepped forth and proffa.ed
hoinr to the youth in the hour of suffering
was Simon Davis, an elderly man who resi-
ded near Crosby, and the latter was his
deadly enemy. Uncle Simon, as he was
called, never retaliated, and bore many per.
secutions of his vindictive neighbor without
complaint. His family consisted of himself
and daughter, his only child, an atitctionate
girl of seventeen ....- ....
The youth heard the offer of Mr.. Davis
and heard no more, for, overcome by his
feelings and extreme illness, he sank insens-
sble. He was conveyed to the house of his
benefactor and a physician called. Long
was the struggle between life and death
Though unconscious, he called upon his
mother and sister, almost constantly, to aid
him. When the youth was laid upon her
bed, and she heard him calling for his sister,
Lucy Davis wept, and said to him, "Poor
young man, your sister is far distant, but |
will he to you a sister," Wsll did this dark
eyed maidsn keep her promise. Day and
night she watched oyer nial. except durin 4:

The following is an extract from sermon
by the Rev. Henry Ward Beeoher, published in
the Banner of Light, from the texts "I have
yet many things to say unto you, but ye can
not bear them now." (John, 10th 9. 18th w

place where there is one in operation, without

Of brains, and without intelligence. Up there
are the cords, and down here is the carpet,
which like Gods events, is being rolled up as
fast as 1T is made. Let man look at those
small oords-those pieces Of pasteboard filed
with holes-and attempt to tell what pattern
the carpet is to be Of
They are to determine exactly the pattern of
the carpet, and yet, by looking at them, you
can form no idea as to what that pattern will
be. All you can see of the carpet itself, as it
is being rolled up, is little threads, shooting
first this way, and then the other.
Now God is rolling up out of our sight the
carpet which is being wrought through his
providence in this world, and the events which
transpire here are mere punctured cards. We
know what these quilts are which carry back
and forth the thread of which the carpet IL
made, but of the pattern Of the fabrics we are

EXTRAORDINARY Observation-Disclosures
SouND.-In another part of our columns will
be found the details Of a very singular discov-
cry of NJ. L. Scott, by means of which sounds
may be made to record themselves, whether
the sounds are those of musical instruments, or
emitted by the voice in singing or speaking.
Professor Wheatstone, during his recent visit
to Paris invited by the Abbe Moiguo to inspect
the papers on which these sounds had printed
themselves, and is said to have been greatly
surprised and pleased with what he saw. The
mark produced on the paper by particular
note is invariably the same; SO, also, il person
speaks the tone of voice in which he speaks is
faithfully recorded. As yet no practical advsn.
fage has been obtained by this discovery; but
Mr.. Scott is sauguino that, in course of time,
he will so far improve his apparatus that it will
be capable Of printing a speech (which may
be written off verbatim, '') to the great saving

While on his recent journey tn the West,

for the office editors Of the Independent:

The following anecdote is given by the
Opinione of Turin. A banquet of officers was
held at Milan few days ago, at which, among
impending war, young officer proposed the
following "TO the Austrian army The
French and Piedmontese armies will break
against it like this brittle glass;" So saying,
he threw the bottle he had just emptied into
the air, so as to make it fall back again
upon the table, which, in fact, it did, but
without breaking. The opinione states that
all the officers present stood aghaSt at this un-
toward omen.
