The Beggar Woman.

Once in a time Of famine an unknown
beggar woman poorly but Clearly clad
went through a certain village asking
aims.
From some houses she was sent away
with rough words at others she received
a very small gift only one poor garden
err, as she was cold; invited her into his
warm room /; and his wife, who had just
baked cakes, gave her a nice-large piece.
The next day all the people at whose
door the beggar woman called, were in.
|yited to supper in the Queens palace
/" When they came into the dining room
they beheld a small table laden with tie
richest food, and also q large table with
many plates, on which there was here
and there a piece of mouldy bread, a few
artichokes, and a handful Of bran. but
for the most part the plates were entire
ly empty.
The Queen said 81 was myself that
beggar woman i'm disguise, wishing.
in this time Of distress when the poor
are in such great need, to prove the
charity of my people. The two poor
gardeners took me in and entertained me
as the best they could hence they will
now set with me, and | will fix a pension
for life on them. The rest of you will
entertain yourselves with the same fare
which you gave me, sad which you will
End on these plates. With this, remember
that in the future world, you will also
enc day be served as you serve others.

The Lost Child.

About a fortnight ago, a bright little
six years of age daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
King, living about three miles from Kali
ida, Putnam county, in this State went
with her mother to visit a ~ncighoor, and
while there accompanied the neighbor's
children to carry water to the father,
working in the field. On the way some
childish quarrel occurred between them,
and their little visitor, vexed and grieved,
started to return to the house, which was
in view. Probably rejecting more upon
the wound which her feelings received
than of the path she was following, she
strayed away into the woods. The other
children returned in due season, but Mrs.
King was only surprised that her child
was not with them.
Search was Immediately commenced
but when night came, and the fittle one
was not found. the anxiety Of the mother
became terrible. The search was contin.
ued the next day ana the next without
success. The whole neiglborhood was
aroused, and the people Of the country,
to the number of five hundred per day,
generously volunteered their services aud
traversed the woods. and the forests rams
with thcir\ alarms night and day, III
search Of the lost child. For nine DAYS the
search was continued amid the utmost
excitement and without cessation, during
which time soul narrowing suspense of
of the parents, and especially the mother,
was indiscpibablc, and she would neither
rest nor refresh herself. She still hoped
against hope itsel', as each succeeding
day passed without tidings.
On the ninth day the little one was
found, lying over two logs-whcre it had
fallen, too weak to proceed, within two
miles OF the spot where it was last seen
dead. 1t had removed all its clothing,
and when found was quite naked, its boa
net hanging on a limb, and its dress ly.
ing in a little play house. 1t had died
within a few hours of the time at which
it was found. The spot was frequently
passed, lat the most of the search had
Been extended too far. When thtSdead
body of the child was taken into the
presence of the mother, and the hope
which had sustained her throughout the
search was gone, her reason totsered and
she became insane.
This melancholy incident, Of which we
are Informed by a gentleman of the coun-
try IN which it occurred. and the facts Of
which arc c%orrobora'ed, by the newspa-
pers OF the vicinity, caused a feeling of
gloom and sadness to prevail throughout
the entire neighborhood, the intense
sympathy Of which was aroused by it,
They left their labor and their homes to
assist In the search, and did everything
it was in human power to do, but a sin
gular and painful fatality rendered all
their efforts unavailing.- Columbus (Ohic)

There is a great falling off in the liquor

earlier reports, and indicates that the
awakening is growing in power and in.
