A Strange Story from Ohio,

A most curious instance of conflicting
testimony in the case of murder recently
occurred in Ohio On March 25th, one
Ira B. Wheeler of North Pepip, in that
State, suddenly disappeared, and it was
generally supposed that he had been &C.
cidentally drowned in the waters of the
Chippewa. A few days ago, however,
his body was found near the place where
the accident was supposed t. have &C.
Cured, the head marked by deep cash
across the sea p, and severe wound over
the left eye. Suspicion at once rested on
james Carter, who had originally made
the statement that Wheeler broke through
the ice and so died. The whole village
Was excited. Carter Was subjected to a
sharp lnquistion, when most uuex pected-
ly the wife of Wheeler and the accused
man both confessed to the crime, each
charging the other with dealing the fatal
blow. Tue Durand (Ohio) Times says !:
"The wife's story is, that Wheeler and
Carter, getting into an alteration about
going to neighbours to play q game of
whist, Carter dared Wheeler out Of doors
to fight, whereupon the latter followed
Carter out, when Carter struck him over
the head with gun.barrel, which brought
him to the ground, Immediately causing
his DEATH"
Carter, on the other hand, asserts that
Wheeler was driving tacks into his boots,
when his wife happened to pass by upset
the paper of tacks upon the floor. A
scuffle ensued, at first in play afterwards
10 anger. Mrs. Wheeler finally snatched
mp Ratchet and struck her husband a
blow on the head, which felled him to the
floor, Carter had been bystauder in the
struggle, and now came forward, told the
wife not to be alarmed, aud proceeded to
carry the corpse to the river, and thrust
it through the ice. He then invented an
explanation for his disappearance.

A LIGHT IN THE WINDOW Tue
following beautiful little story has been in
print some time, but is still good -
"When a boy, twelve years old, says the
writer, | worked hard to support my
mother and two young brothers, and usual
ly carried my earnings home every even :
ing, One night it being very dark and
muddy and having three miles to travel,
and heavy bundle to carry, 1 did not
reach home till late. Mother, feeble and
weary, had retired, but quickly aroused
when she heard my footsteps, aud met
ME at the door with "a warm heart and
warmer tears, and kiss and "God
bless you, dear boy after this, my son,
I'll set II light in the window for YOU"
Aud true to her word, the bright light in
the window appeared. Oh how it cheer
red my heart ever after, for years
Health failing left home-aftcr my
brother could help my mother-and
went to sea. When three years from
home, and on the Pacific Ocean my
mother died, and just before she expired,
she said to those around her, "Give Ed
ward my dying blessing for he has been
good boy; and tell him 1 have gone to
Heaven, and will set light in the win.

JEFFERSON DAVIS PRISON LIFE.

DR.. Craven has written a book con.
ccrDin. the prison life of Mr. Davis, froul
which the Baltimore Sun of the 18th
inst has male the very copous extracts,
and from which W, gather the follow
ing account of his shackeing:
There has just been published in New
York curious and Interesting work, en-
titled "Prison Life Of Jefferson Davis ;
embracing details and incidents in his
captivity, particulars concerning his
health and habits, together with many
conversations On TOPICS IF great public
interest. By Brevet Lieutenant Colonel
John j. Craven, M. D., late surgeon U.
s. volunteers, and physician OF the prison.
er during his confinement in Fortress
Monroe, from May rs, 1865, up to De.
cenber rs, 1865" The book is filed
with memoranda which cannot but excite
attention far and wide, and though doubt
less clap-trap ard malevolent remark will
be resortcd to, in partisan spirit, to
break the force of many of the facts, yet
it will be difficult to overcome the iln.

instinct of a common humanity, and Or

The procession from the United States
Steamer Clyde into the fort, on the
morning If the 2lst of May is described,
with Major General Halleck, Charles A.
Dana, then Assistant Secretary of War,
and Colonel Pritchard, of the Michigan
cavalry, (who had made the capture of
Mr.. D4vis's party,) with Colouel Miles
holding the arm Of Mr.. Davis, always
thin and now haggard, dressed 10 suit
of gray, Mr.. G. Z. Clay following amidst
the guard of soldiers, and through files of
other soldiers, all the way into the case
mate.
When Mr. Davis was first placed in
his cell, he naturally asked which way
the window or cmbrasure faced But
both OF the soldiers pacing up and down
his cell were silent; and repeating the
question, the continued silence indicated
their strict prohibition of all interchange
Of words with the prisoner. Left thus,
with Bible and prayer book, and the
ordinary ratiuns of beef and bread, of
which the SICK man partook not, the first
day and night were passed. Says DR..
Craven:
On the morning of The 23d of May q
yet hltlerer trial was in store for the proud
spirlt-a trial severer, probably, than mas
ever in modern times been inflicted upon
any one who had enjoyed such eminence.

THE SABBATH.

BY SIR EDWARD BULwER LYTToN.
Fresh glide the brooks, and blows the gale,
But yonder halts the quiet mill;
The whirling wheel, the rushing sail,
How motioness and still
Six days of toll, poor child Of Cain,
Thy strength the slave Of want may be
The seventh thy limbs escape the chain
A God hath made thee free
All, tender was the law that gave
This holy respite to the breast,
To breathe the gale, to watch The wave,
And know the wheel may rest
But where the waves the gentiest glide,
What image charms to light thine eyes 2
The spire reflected on the tide,
Invites thee to the skies.
To teach the soul its noblest worth,
The rest from mortal toll is gain;
Go snatch the brief reprieve from earth
And pass-a guest to heaven.
They tell thee in their dreaming school,
Ofpower from old dominion hurled,
When rich or poor, with juster rule,
Shall share the altered world.
Alas since time itself begun,
That fable hath but fooled the hour
Each age that ripens power in man,
But subjects man to power.
Yet every day in seven at least,
One bright republic shall be known
Man's world awhile hath surely ceased,
When God proclaims his own.
Six days may rank divide the poor,
o Dives, f,om thy banquet hall;
The Seventh, the Father opes his door,
And holds his feast for all

WHY SAM NEVER MARR1Ep-sau

in Berkshire county, Mass, by good luck
received fine start in the world, and soon
acquired handsome property. When he
had reached middlelife, friend asked
him, one day, why he did not marry, as
man in his circumstances was abundautly
able to support wife. "Oh! 1 consider
myselftoo good to marry uigger-wench,"
returned Sam, with feipt to turn up his
fat nose. "Marry a white woman, then,"
continued his friend "the laws of Mas

hanged if I'd have white woman that
was mean enough to marry a Niger"
replied Sam, with huge gu6aw.

The NEW ZEALANDERs.-Each pas
sing year reduces the chances of effectual
opposition on the part of the natives
All the efforts made to civilize and pre-
serve them appear to be in vain. DR..
Featherston, in his speech at wellington,
confirms the idea that their numbers are
rapidly diminishing; and he says it is
impossible to avoid their speedy extino-
ton. Twenty years ago their numbers
wero estimated at 100000 now, says the
doctor, no one believes they could muster
10000 souls, and in twenty years they
will be reduced to mere handful. 1t is
cunsoatory to think that such rapid de.
cline in the native population is not at
tributable to European aggression. The
numbers who have persisted in battle, and
through the collateral effects of war, are
triaing compared with the enormous re.
duction that has taken piece. The dim
mutton must be ascribed to other causes.
Strzolecki, in writing upon Australian
colonization, expresses the opinion that
the natives of this New World have
wherever the European advances, the
sentence of extinction stamped indellibly
upon their foreheads. That opiuion was
written twenty years ago, and each year
has tended to prove its truth. 1t is not
that their longevity is abridged, but that,
from some unde6ued cause, whenever
placed side by side with Europeans, the
hearths of the natives like the wigwams OF
the American Indians, retreat or disap-
pear before the torrent of immigration. -
