The Thunder Storm.

There are but few scenes of either hui

have not looked with brow of daring.
l have stood in battle, when the whirl-
wind was rending oaks from their rocky
cliffs, and scattering them to the clouds.
l have seen these things with a swelling
soul that knew not of danger; but there
is something in the thunder's voice that
makes me tremble like child. have
tried to overcome this unmanly weak
ness. / have called pride to my aid /
have even sought to strengthen my NOR
al courage in the lessons Of philosophy,
but it avails me nothing. At the first
low moaning of the distant cloud, my
heart shrinks, quivers and dies within
me.
My dread of thunder had its origin in

Her voice had the melody and joyous
ness of q birds, and when she bounded
over the woodland hill, or fresh green
valley, shouting glad answer to every
voice Of nature, and clapping her little
hands, in the very ecstacy of her young
existence, she lookedas if breaking away,
a free nightingale from the earth, and
going off where all things are beautiful
and happy like her.
It was morning in the middle OF Au-
gust. The little girl had been passing
some days at my fathers house, and she
was now to return home. Her path lay
across the fields, and Igladly became the
companion Of her walk. never knew
a summer morning more beautiful and
still. Only one cloud was visible, and
that seemed as pure, and peaceful, as II
it had been the incense smoke of some
burning censor Of the skies. The leaves
hung silent in the woods, the waters In
the bay forgot their undulating. the dow
ers were bending their heads as II dream

turned, invOluntarily, to his wife and
children, left without protector and
provider. What were they to do?-
Hervey had been engaged in business as
Il real estate broker. At his death, there
was no estate to settle up-no store to
sell out--few if any debts to collect. The
office would be closed, and the income
cease.

hour that elapsed after had heard the
affective news. "Without fifty dollars
i'll the world, probably, besides furniture
and clothing, how is she to maintain, by
her own unaided exertions, q family of
six children ?"
So much was afflicted by the occur
renee, that l could not sleep for some
hours after retiring to bed in the even
ing.
On the next morning the newspapers
contained a notice of the accident, with
this announcement:
1--WE are happy to state, that a few
days before leaving for the sea-shore,
Mr.. Hervey had his life insured in the
1Etna Life Insurance Company of Hart
ford, Conn.,, for five thousand dollars"
l was so much affected in reading this,
that my hands trembled, and the paper
dropped from them to the floor.
Some years have elapsed since the &C.
currence of this sad event. Almost dali

ed street, behind the counter of which is
sometimes seen the widow of Mr.. Her
vcy, or daughter who has attained the
age Of fourteen years. The face of the
former has sober, quiet look, but bears
no evidence of distressing care. Under
the advice and assistance of friends, four
thousand dollars of the money received
at the death of her husband, We're safely
invested in six per cent. securities, an
with the balance, small store was stock
ed with goods. The Interest ON four
thousand dollars paid her rent, and the
profits on her little business enabled her
to meet the real wants of her family.
How different would all have been but
for this life insurance.

The Old Gg-ist MI.

The grist mill stands beside the stream,
With bending roof and leaning WALL
So old that when the winds are wild
The miller tremhlcs lest it should fall;
But moss and ivy never sere.
Bedeck it o er from year to year.
The dam is steep, and welded green;
The gates are raised the waters pour,
And tread the old wheels slippery steps,
The lowest round f0G cvermore
Methinks they have q sound of ire,
Because they cannat climb it higher.
From morn till night, in autumn time,
When heavy harvests load the plains,
Up drives the farmer to the MILL
And back anon with loaded walns;
They bring a heap OF golden grain,
And take it homo in meal again.
The mill inside is dim and dark,
But peeping in the open door.
You see the miller fitting round,
And dusty bags along the floor;
And by the shaft and down the spout,
The yellow meol comes pouring out.
And all day lone the winnowed chaff
Floats round it Oh the sultry breeze,
And shineth like q settling swarm
OF Qolden-wingod and belted bees
Or sparks around 3 blacksmith's door,
When pillows blow and FORCES roar.

Ills changed since then, but not so much
As am by decay and time;
Its wrecks are messed from year to year,
But mine all dark and bare appear.

me with another baby"

yrumble about IL. You don't deserve to

''There is such % Thug as being blessed

say, on the wrong side Of the mouth.

The Journal is pleading the baby act

to which he is being subjected
We can't feel very sorry for Mr.. Lowe.
He began the fray and must take the con
sequences. Mr.. Lowe will remember the
Maynard serenade at which he disclaimed
all fellowship with Democrats, and ad--
vised his friends TO cut loose their social
intercourse with "Copperheads." We
don't mention this to complain of it, for
it was agreeable all around. But all Dem

a ouc.,lon Coz srr. LOW.

The journal takes the Haynes Execr-
tive Committee TO task for claiming that
no one fit to be Judge was in position to
accept the nomination, and that therefore
Mr.. Lowe received it with great unanimity.
The Journsl thinks this very egotistical
in the lawyers belonging to the Haynes
party, and says that Peter 0dlin and j.
A. Jordan were well qualified. -' ~ =
But admitting the ability Of the@ gentle'
men, the Journal forgets that Mr.. 0dlin
was signer OF the paper requesting
Haynes to run, but especially that John
G. Lowe neUer mentioned j. A. JOrdan's 5
name in convention, although he knew
that j. A. Jordan was in position to
have accepted the nomination free from
any cavil, as he had refused to sign
the paper to Haynes.
The question is pertinent-why did Mr..
Lowe studiously conceal the name of Mr..
Jordan {? We pause for reply,
