that as the weather is warm, they mean to
bury me this evening at seven o'clock. You

bad opinion of me. Besides the Young Frace
Hotel won't keep my body any longer"
After this speech, Arthur took his hat and

"Come we shall have very witty relation ;

Ten o'clock struck, and the intended had

Mr.. c. became uneasy; and to solve
the mystery, went to the hotel ana inquirer
for Edward b. They related TO him
that traveller arrived there that morning at
ten, and that half an hour after he had died,
and had been buried that evening at sever.

Never DESPAIR.

This life is q constant warfare. The good
triumph to-day the evil Tomorrow. Bet
the your and old should toll on, toll ever,
aud never say "die." Lite is full of hope
and happiness if the purposes for which it
is given are used. We want little in order
to make us really happy. We want much
to supply all our imaginary wants. 10 sup
ply the desires which arise from the foolish
pride of the heart. There are too many in
this age who sigh for wealth, large po, ses-
sions and splendid establishments, and en-
deavor to make themselves miserable because
work, toll on, he busy, be industrious do
something and he happy. The really indus
tTious man, is the really happy man. Idle
ness is msery-idlcness is corruption. If
waters are stagnant, they are impure. II
the air is confined, it is unfit Tor the lungs.
Notion, action, are necessary to health and
virtue.
The young man should never despair. He
may think it hard to work, but work is real
substantial blessing. Labor, all useful la
Dor, is honorable. Adam was a gardener.
Eve was n dress-maker, and the good have
ever been laboring men and women. We
know there are these who look upon all la
Dor as degrading; aud we know, too that
such as these are wanting in common sense.
II know that mar will prosper" said a
friend to lis the ether evening of young
mechanic, "bccause he is at work in his shop
early and late"
"Seest thou man diligent in his business,
lie shall stand before kings" Franklin was
diligent in business, and he stood unawed
before king George.

Tell Your Wife.

II yon are in any trouble or quandary, tell
your wile-that is if you have une--all a
bout it at once. Ten to one her invention
will solve your difficulty sooner than all your
logic. The wit OF woman has been praised
but her instincts are quicker and keener
than her reason. Counsel with your wife.
or your mother or sister. and be assured that
light will fash upon your darkness. Wo-
men are too commonly adjndged as verdsnt
in all but purely wornauish affairs. No phil
osuphical student of the sex thus judges them.
Their intuitiuns, or insight, are the most
subtle, and if they cannot see a cat in the
neal there is no cat there. In counseing a
to tell his trouble to his wife, we would 60
farther, and advise him to keep none of his
affairs secret from her. Many a home has
been happily saved, and many fortune re-
trieved by man $ full conti,eucc in his better
half Woman is far more a seer and pro-
phet than man, ii she be- given fair chance.
AS a gcLcal rule, wives contidc the mlnutest
of their plans and thoughts 10 their hus-
bands, having no involvemcnts to screen
from him. Why not rcriprocate, if hut for
the pleasure Of meeting confidence with con-
fdence? We are certain that no man sue
ceets so well in the world as he, who taking
partner for life. makes her the partner of
ali his purposes aud hopes What is wrong
of his impulse or judgment, she will check
and set right with her almost universally
right instincts. Help meet was no insigni-
fcant title, as applied to mans companion.
She is a nicer help to him in every darkness,
difficulty and sorrow of life. And what she
most Graves and most deserves, is confidence
without which love is never free from a

ISABEL MAY.

Nearly all of our dreams are nothing but
dreams,
or the night as well as the day
Twas more than dream when dreamed |
should see
One fairer than all the world unto me,
For saw the fair Isabel May.
We were young, and our hearts held never a
thought
OF time and his wicked deeds
And we daily cheated old Sorrow for hours.
And when we walked out never envied the
bowers
or the East, which, though formed of the fair
est OF flowers,
Have many poisonous weeds.
For the violet, hyacinth, tulip, and rose
Are farest when we love-
And l reckon this gives yearly all Of the
glow
That the Blessed can see in the flowers that
grow
In tEc Ol tpoNe.
It seems that the envious angels find out
Those as happy on earth as they,
And take away gladly the joy that is given,
And lay up our dearest of treasures in hea-
ven,
That our hearts may be taken away.
As quiet and gentle, and peaceful and mild,
As her friends, the bright angels
might be,
As lovely as clouds in their beauty injured,
Dear Isabel May, who was naught to the
world,
Was all of the world to me.
| reckon might have been quite too proud,
For the brightest are always ours
As Time came on with naughty stride,
And his forms dark shadow fell over my
pride
Like cloud on garden of flowers.
For an angel cnmo down one day in the
spring,
And told her SO charming tale
OF City of Gold that is built in the sky,
And Of One who had built her mansion on
high,
That she allerward spoke Of our home with
sigh,
As low as the evening gale.
And daily lshc saitl she WAS nearing her
home,
(But daily was leaving me),
And never could think unless with a sigh,
She slowly was passing away to the sky,
Though to One who had loved her far better
than ],
In its kind but not in degree.
In the time of the year when flowers gpw
pale,
And Beauty is passing away,
The angels came down, and they whispered
awhile
A message that lit her wan face with smile,
And they to"k my sweet Isabel May,
My dear, dear Isabel May
tt ought that size loved me SO fondly and
trin
She never would hurry away.

CUMBERLAND MARYLAND THURSDAY MORNING. MAY 3. 1850

A STRANGE AND EXCITING SCENE IN A
CoURr OF LAWN the Probate Court
OF Cincinnati, says the Gazette, an
interesting trial occurred before Judge
Hilton, involving the right to the custody
of a child. The decision of the Judge,
taking the child from the care of party
to whom she had been confided by the
Orphan Asylum, and giving her to a
mother and step-father regarded as Of
bad character, excited great dissatisfac-
ton among the by-standers and some,
among whom was n Lon gworth, Esq,
were disposed to interfere forcibly to pre-
vent the transfer of the child. The step
father then stepped around to take the
child, who dad been sitting in the lap of
one of the ladies' present. The little
thing drew back from him in apparent
terror, and in an imploring manner,
with tears, called out to the Judge, "Oh,
Judge, do not give me to him!" This
caused considerable emotion, and Gaf-
ney showing disposition to assert the
right the Court had declared in his be-
half, several persons gathered around.
Mr.. Longworth, in an excited manner,
said ''let the mob iuterferei' but the
first man who attempted it was instantly
taken hold of by the officers present
and thrown out of the room. Mr.
Weightman, the wife of the responent,
overcome by the excitement OF the entire
proceedings, tainted; the little child wept
bitterly, and clung to the friends that
had adopted it. Many of the ladies
wrung their hands. and declared it would
be ruined if it left them. The whole
court room was turned into confusion;
and the Judge, as a matter of discretion
under the circumstances, directed Shelf
Kessler to take the custody Of the child
until further orders.
