\ SINGULAR CAsE.-We recently heard a

ing, promising lad. Oae day during the
past winter he failed to rise in the morning
as early as usual. At length his father
went into the room where be lay, and asked
him why he did not get up. lie said it seem
ed dark vet, and he was waiting tor day hight.
Ills father retired, but rs the boy did not
MAKE his appearance for some time, he agar!
returned and said second time. My son,
why don't YOU get up?" lie replied, Faith
er, is il day lisht?' 'leS, long ago.
Then, father" the little fellow sadly said,
Il am blind" And 50 it was. His sight
was gone.
In a short time his father took him to Nash
Vile to get the benefit of the Medical proeS-
sion there. but none Of the physicians could
do ANYTHING for him, and happily made no
experiments on his eyes. Some ladies' IN a
family of his fathers acquaintance sought
to cheer him in his attl iction, and one night
proposed to take him to me opera that he might
hear the music and singi tie wentand was
delighted. In the course OF the performance,
MI at once he leaped up, and threw his arms
around his fathers neck. and screamed
with ecstacv, "Oh father, can see. | can
seen' His sight had instantly returned
And since then he has retained IT in full
yiror. except that under excitement there Is
sometimes a transient dimneSs OF VISION
The case is one of remarkable and singular
character PRESBYTERIAN Witness.

TO MISS u. E. A., OF ALEXANDRIA, VA.
Some potent hand swept back the tide OF years
And brought me the scenes OF former days,
Those long past hours Of childhOods smiles and
tears,
OF fee;ing clouds and hope. illumined skies;
That eve, when listening TO those welcome strains,
Ny lonely heart was young and glad once more
I sat within my boyhood's home again,
And heard my Cousin voice, as oft OF yorc
Mother and sisters, all, [ wen. to see,
Aud felt their voices thrilling 10 my soul.
All me! how woke the long dead melody,
And almost buried pleasures Ger me stole
Blest boyhood days. On come again sweet dream!
Those cleaning, youth renewing, memories
bring,
And while float adrwn LIES storm tossed stream
Their holy radiance DER its waters fling!
Fate's iron -cloved. reuorseess hand hath crushed
Ny saddened heart, and Swallowed it with gloom;
It's thousand voices are forever hushed,
AMI nope now lies buried in its silent tomb.
YET thanks, dear one, thousand thanks to thee
Thy smiles have e'er made glad passing hour ;
More fair than minc l pray thy lot may be,
And sorrows clouds nc'er DER thy pathway lower

This fine brand of CHAMPAGNE, which until the
past year was confined exclusively to the best Ia
bles of the Continent of Europe, has now obtained
the most unbounded success and popularity in this
country. 1t is recommended by some of the first
Physicians of the City Of New York, over all other
wines OH account OF its extreme purity and deli
cacy, aud those who once try it rarely use any
other brand. Although only one year has elapsed
since its introduction into this country, the de-
mand is enormous and constantly increasing. Our
arrangements IRE such as to ensure the quality of
the Wine being maintained at its present high stan
