A London paper publishes de-
scription of a curious invention, de-
signed to catch safe burglars. The
depredator no sooner commences, in
perfect ignorance of the secret ar
rangements, to force open the door,
drill the lock, or move the safe, than
by so doing he sends a telegraph
message to the nearest police office,
exhibiting the number Of the safe he
is attacking, and this number, regis
tered in the police books, has oppo-
site to it the address of the house in
which the robbery is being effected.

Commencing to Heaven the child Of her

What anguish was hers mortal tongues

Though costly the sacrifice placed on its

Her hearts dearest hopes on it's altar she

Months nassed, and wars thnnders rolled

Unshcathed was the sword, and lighted

We heard in the distance the sounds Of tho
fray,
And prayed for our boy in the jacket Of

All, vain, all, all, vain, were our prayers
and our tears;
The glad shout of victory rang in our ears;
But our treasured one on the red battle
While the iffe-blood oozed ont on the jacket

His young comrades found him, and ten

Oh. dark we're our hearts on that terrible

When we saw our dead boy, in the jacket

All, spot and tattered and stained now
Was the ,4rment which once he SO proudly

And replaced, with deaths white robes,
the jacket of grey.
We laid him to rest in his cold, narrow bed,
And gravcd on the marble we placed Der
