The ihriving village of South Orange, in
Essex County, has been the latest scene of

succeeding Sunday, every word of which
he holds that he who doubts is, or will be
id This belief 10 so strongly difused
throughout the whole section, that our re-
porter found not a single doubter in that
whole region.
The location of the "murder will out"
scene is less than three miles from the vii
lage. The dwelling where the ghostly visi-
tor made the darkness visible is an old fash
icned frame house, on the road leading
down the Passaic River, surrounded by ce-
dars almost as old and quite as somber as
the dwelling itself. Tradition states that
the building was of anie-Revolutionary ori.
gin, built before the colonies threw offtheir
yoke, and inhabited by subjects as loyal to

The Boy and the Man.

A celebrated artist, in one OF his ram bles 4,
met with the most beautiful child he had
ever seen.
''l will paiGl the portrait Of this child, !"
he said, ''and keep il for my own, for may
never look upon It's like again. He painted
ii and VIII en- trouble came, and evil pas
sions moved his spirit to rebel, he gazed
upon the likeness Of the boy, and then
passion fed, and holy thoughts entraced
his soul. He said eff can find being
that will answer for perfect contrast TO
this child, one in whom is conseniralei
every thing vile and ugly of which | can
conceive, will paint his portrait also"
Years passed away, and he saw no person
sufficiently hideous 10 anwer his design. At
leugth, while travelling in distant land, he
went within prison wall, and there he
saw, stretched uyon the floor OF stone, the
object which his fancy had portrayed. A
man whose soul was stained with blood,
with glaring eyes and haggard face, and
with demoniac rage, cursing himself, his
fellow-beings, and blasphemlng God, lay
chained within that miserable abode, aud
waiting for the moment of bis execu-
tion.
The artist transferred his Likeness TO the
canvass aud blaced it opposite to the child's.
How strkingly how complete the contrast.
