BARON TRENCK AND HIS MoUsE.-
Laden with chains, and in horrible
dungeon in the Fortress of Magdeburg,
Trenck contrived to make himself the
friend of a little mouse. 1t would eat Of
the mouldy bread of the prisoner, and
was constantly playing with him. One
night the little quadruped skipped about
so much that the noise attracted atten-
ton. The town-major arrived in con-
sequence, early in the morning, accom-
panied by locksmiths and masons. The
floors, the walls, the barou's chains, his
body--every thing, in short, was strictly
examined. Finding all in order, they
asked the cause of last evenings hustle.
Trenck had heard the mouse, and told
them frankly by what it had been occa-
stoned. They desired him to call his
little favorite. He whistled, and the
mouse Immediately leaped upon his
shoulder. He solicited that its life might
be spared, but the officer of the guard
took it into his possession, promising,
however, on his word of honor, to give
it to a lady who would take great care of
it. Turning it afterward loose in his
chamber, the mouse, who knew nobody
bat Trenck, soon disappeared, and hid
itself in a hole. At the usual hour Of
visiting his prison, when the officers were
just going away, the poor little animal
darted in, climed up his legs, seated him
self on bis shoulder, and played thou
sand tricks to express the joy it felt on
seeing him again. Every one was as
tonished, and wished TO have it. The
major, to terminate the dispute, carried
it away and gave it to his wife, who had
a light cage made for it but the mouse
refused to eat, and few days after was
found dead.

The Death of a Wife.

/ loved her we'll, wept her sore,
And when her funeral left my door
| thought that should never more
Feel any pleasure near me glow;
But have learned, through this l had,
'Fis sometimes natural to be glad,
And no man can be always sad,
Unless he wills to have it so.
Oh, had weary nights at first,
And daily wakening was the worst:
For then my grief arose, and burst
Like something fresh upon my head (;
Yet when less keen it seemed to grow,
l was not pleased wished to go
Mourning adown this vale Of woe,
For all my life Uncontrolled
/ grudged myself the lightsome air,
That makes man cheerful unaware;
When comfort came, l did not care
To take it in, to feel it stir,
And yet God took me with his plan,
And now for my appointed span
I think am happier man
For having wed and wept for her.

Charge Of the Second Brigade.

The Sabbath morn dawned bright and clear VI
on the third of May,
AS underneath st. Mary's heights the corps {
Sedgwlck lay;
A silence, ominous and deep, was on the hillsid
then,
Though on the top and at the foot were hosts @
hostile men.
The thunder of the rebel guns the solemn still
ness broke,
And echo answered echo back, as one by on,
awoke;
But soon our rided PARROTS spoke in tones VIZ
knew so well,
And opened on the rebel hordes rehuent storm
of shell.
In quick response our well served guns their
deadly missiles pour,
Which through the scarp and parapet of their
entrenchments tore;
But grape and she'll and solid shot, tho shower
ed forth like rain,
To drive the gray-backs from their holes, proved
impotent and vain.
Green Mountain boys ye heroes of a dozen
bloody fights
The call is now for men who dare to scale the
dizzy heightsi
And see advancing on the plain, their serried
lines appear,
Unbroken by the storm of grape nparalyzed
by fear
The Twenty-slxth New Jersey, then, attached to
our brigade
Supported by the Seconds boys, master stroke
essaycd;
But struggling through miry bog that stretch
ed across their way,
lessly astray.
Then came the long tried Second up and passed
them on the run
Vermont might well be proud that day of every
martial SON
With yolley answered voley as they climbed
the shelving track
And, shouting forth their battle cry, they drove
The rebels back
Upon Or right the Light Brigade" dismay and /
carnage SPREAD
Far to the left our own brave Brooks his troops
triumphant led
Each proudly cmulons of each, were deeds Of
val0r done,
And on the crest laid down to rest--St. Marys
heights were won
All honor to the brave who fsli az. si',d 'iVir
blood in vain,
Who rested with us, but, alas no more to rise
again;
BY Rappanannock's storied stream their yerdant
graves were made,
Who, dying, shed new lustre on the "old Yer
mont Brigadel"

holiday. All were satisfed-all wer
happy.
But few articles yet remained to bt
disposed of-the satin caskets among
them-and neither the Chopins nor the
Chardels had yet been noticed. Now il
was the turn of the young ladies', who
were patiently waiting in the happy as
surance of the satin boxes. To their
astonishment, however, while all stood on
tiptoe to see what would be given to
people so grand as they, Mr., Germont
banded to each roll Of white paper tied
with black ribbon. They were mortified
and disappointed, yet vanity whispered
that there must be something valuable
within, and every one was waiting to
know, so the rolls were opened. The
contents were these words clearly and
distinctly written. In one was: we
never give money to those we don't
know; we cannot be sure of the use you
will make of it, The other contained
groschen, with these words: If one
were TO give to every beggar, there would
be'no end to it, there are so many i'm

Pale with anger and shame, the sis
ters left the place; but no one pitied
them except the little Chopins who while
shedding tears of sympathy for them,
heard their own names called. You,

HORRIBLE AFFAIR.-One of the most
horrible affairs that it has ever been our
duty to record occurred on Saturday in
the Southwest part of Sheffield. A little
child year and half old, son of Ma:h-
ew Ryan, wandered out unattended into
an open field, and it is supposed fell
asleep, when SOW belonging to Mr..
Cooper, neighbor of and employer Of
Mr.. Ryan, came up and actually ate the
flesh from the child's legs and one hand
before it was discovered. The child lived

a. The Prince of Wales has a very
fair start in the world for young man.
His Cornwall estate has yielded $780,
600; his landed property gives an income
of $125,O00; parliament votes him
$500,000 year while his mother lives,
besides $250,000 for Mrs. Wales to
spend. Add TO this a very pretty wife
and a good prospect of being king of
England some day, and the prince can
be considered "forehanded."
