THE LADY AND THE RoBBER.

In large, lonely house, situated Ia me
south OF England, there once lived lady
and her two maid servants. They were far
AWAY from all human ha5itations, but they
seemed to have no fear, but to have dweit
there peacefully and happily. 1t was the
tady's custom to 60 round the house with her
maids every evening, to see that all the
windows aud donrs were properly secured.
One night she had accompanied them as usu,
al, ana ascertained that all was safe. They
ieil her ia the passage close to her room, and
chen went 10 her own, which was quite at
the other SIDE ul The Aoase As tile lady
opened the door. she distinctly saw man
underneath her bed WHAT could she do:
Her servants were Ear away, and could not
hear her ii she sereamea lur help, and even
il they had come 10 htt assistance, Insse
three weak women were no match loo des.
perate housebreaker. How then did she &C,
She trusted in God. Quietly she closed the
door. and locked il in the inside, which she
was always in the habit Of doing. She then
leisurely brushed her hair, and putting on
her dressing gown, she took her Bible, and
sat down TO read. she read aloud, and chose
a chapter that had peculiar reference to
care OF Us by night aud by day. When II
vas finished she Snelt and prayed u great
length, still Gitcriug her words aloud, espe'
cially commenting herself aud servants to
Gods protection, aud dwelling upon lhelf
utter helplessness ANA dependence upon
Him to pre- serve them from all dangers. At
last she rose from her knees, put out her
candle, and laid down IN bed but she DID
not sleep.
After . few moments had elapsed, she was
conscious that man was standing BY her
bedside. He begged her not 10 be alarmed
81 came here to rob you, but after the
words you have read, and the prayers you
uttered, no power on earth gould induce me
to hurt you, or touch thing IN your house.
But YOU must remain perfectly quiet anu
not attempt 10 interfere with me. | shall
now give a signal to my companions, which
they will understand, and then We will so
away and YOU may sleep in peace, Tor ! give
YOU nv solemn word that no one shall harm
you, and not the smallest thing belonging 10
sou shall be disturbed.
He then went to the window, opened 1t
aud wkistled soitiy-returning 10 the lady's
side who had not spoken or moved, he said,
Now am gong. Your prayers have
been heard, and no disaster will betail you"
lie left the room, and soon all was quiet,
and the lady fell asleep, still upheld BY that
calm and beautiful faith and trust. When
the morning dawned and she awoke, we may
feel sure she poured out her thanksgiving
and praises to Him who mad " defended her
under iUs Wings and kept her safe
under his feathers" so that she was not
",sfraid OF any terror By night" The man
was true 10 his word, aud not thing 10 the
house had been taken. London PGekel.

Two HUNDRED PEOPLE POISONED By FLOUR.
A very singular account is given in the Fond
du Lao (Wis.) Prsss, Of how great number Of
people Of the towns Of Forest and Marshfeld
have been attacked with strange pains in the
stomach ard bowels, which was supposed to
be kind Of epidemic, until 1t was discovered
that the miller who does the custom-work for
the neishborhood, under the impression that
the grooves in his mill-stones were too deep,
was in tho practice Of filing them up with q
preparation Of white lead, and when 1t wore
or came out, of reflling as occasion required
Some Of the -four has been brought to Fond
du Lao to bs analysed, and 1t has been found
to contain considerable quantity of lead
There is no doubt smong the people Of tina
section that their sickness was caused by tht
use Of this poisoned -four. No less than from
15o to 200 persons have been affected by eat
ing the -four. Rumors are that not one hal
yet died whose death could be distinctly tracet
to that cause, though many are very sick, AMI
came near to deaths deor, who will probabl!
recover. prs

The AUTHORIZES OF "BRuLAH. writer in
the New Orleans Della thus describes liter
ary lady: Miss Augusta Evans is Of Georgia
family, but q Mobilisn. Her father was a
merchant engaged In tho cotton business, who
died last years man universally esteemed
for his probity, business talents, and intelh.
gence. Miss Evans is not more than three
and twenty, if she bs that. She has fine
and rather commanding figure, though not
too tall; with an air Of truly feminine grsce.
Her brow is expansive, and her dark eyes ex-
pressive Of genius and feeling. She is natural,
unaffected, with very warm. hearted smile,
and social without absorbing conversation.
She does not betray the authoress, nor has q
particle Of the manner of "I-wish- everybody
to-know- Lam thea uthor-o -Beulah."
Miss Evans is trsnsoendentalist, judging
from her book. She has faith in the Carlyle
theories Of spiritual development, and In the
soul working out its own destiny from love o.
virtue, Independent Of revelation. Those who
know her best, say that the mental conAic
through which Beulah aud DR.. Hartwel
passed is but the Transcript Of her own intel
lectual and moral experience. As sculptor
of character ont Of the hard marble Of human
ity, she is hardly surpassed.
