wears experience in building and repair

giles from off several roofs that were worn
entirely through, at the line where tho
water falls from ono shingle upon the

courses the shingles were as bright as

with sawed and cut shingles, from any
kind of timber. The reason is, that
sawed and cut shingles are cross grained,
so that water runs through the pores OF
the wood-wets the under course, and,
in wet seasons, seldom if ever dries.
The agents Of decay are, air, water and
heat. All arc combined on a roof TO

- Murder Will Cut.s

The following is an extract from Mr..
Webster's argument on the trial of John
Francis Knapp, for the murder of Joseph
White, Esq, of Salem, Massachusetts,,
on the night of the 9th Of April, 1880:
"He has done the murder. No eye
has seen him, no ear has heard him. The
secret is his own, and it is safe All !.
gentlemen that was dreadful mistake.
Such secret can be safe nowhere. The
whole creation of God has neither nook
nor corner where the guilty can bestow
it, and say it is safe. Not to speak of
that eye which pierces through all dis
cuises, aud beholds everything as in the
splendor Of noon, such secrets of guilt
are never safe from detection, even by
men. True it is, generally speaking,
that murder will out True it is, that
Providence has SO ordained, and doth SC
govern things, that those who break the
great law of Heaven by shedding man;
blood, seldom succeed in avoiding dis
covery. Especially, in q case exciting
so much attention as this, discovery mus
come, and will come sooner Or later. 4
