The following extract is from a letter which was
written upon the death Of a child -

SANS finances becoming somewhat reduced, il
was determined to dispense with the services o.
seventeen Of the number. As each Of these forty
ladies has at least forty friends OF great influence,
the selection of the number was a responsible and
delicate matter for the Director to assume. 1t was
accordingly determined that the selection should
be by lot Accordingly forty pieces of paper,
twenty three of which were marked returned

MERIToRIoUS ROPE WALKING.

Mr.. John Stickell, q native of Antrim township,
Md, a carpenter by occupation, was engaged in
building a mill for Mr.. John Cushwa. The build
ing, q brick structure, was up to the square; a
uumber OF neutrality-suspicious. several hundred
had collected to assist at raising timbers; a rope
was stretched across the building, near the mid
die, for some purpose or other; MIR. Sticke|l was
on the brick wall near one end Of the rope, and a
young man in bis employ was on the wall at the
opposite side OF the building, at the other end of
the rope. The young man fell, and, in falling,
caught the rope, but was not able to raise himself,
and if some person had not FASTENED to his relief,
he would have fallen s~ixty.two feet, into the cog
pit, over which he was suspended. The crowd
witnessing the young mans peril seemed paraly'
zed. Mr.. Stickell's attention was directed to the
young mans dangerous situation by the murmur
of awe from those below him, when, without a
moments hesitation, and without q balance pole,
he fearlessly walked the entire length of the mill
on the rope. over the s~ixty-two feet chasm and res
cued the young man from an awful fate, amid the
rapturous shouts of all present. This was rope
walking to some purpose; but we doubt whether
it has its parallel on record.

BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH VOLUME

BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH VOLUME
In assuming the control of the Atlantic Month
ly, its lew proprietors deem it scarcely needful
to spend many words in assurances or promises.
The congratulations and good wishes they have
received from all parts of the country seem to JUS
tify them in the confidence that their own char.
acter as publishers will be accepted by the numer-
Gus readers and friends of the Magazine as a war
rant that they will do everything in their power to
increase its interest, to enlarge its circle os attrac-
ton, and to raise its standard of ability in all
departments.
They think it proper to say, simply, that no
change will be made in the general character Of
the magazine; that all the writers whose contribu-
tions have established it in the popular favor will
%continu ne to make it their medium Of communicA-
ton with the public; and that the relations of the
publishers with authors on both sides the Atlantic
will enable them to add materially to the variety,
interest, and value Of its pages.
The Atlantic has never been, and will never be,
a sectional journal. Its publishers acknc wledRe
no parallels of latitude in the Republic of Letters;
and, while they will judge of any article offered
them, not by the source whence it comes, but by
its own intrinsic worth, they will at the same time
endeayor to maintain its character as a periodical

which what is loudest. but not deepest, in Public
Opinion would fam establish.
