Touching.

The Memphis Avalanche, narrates the
following touching episode, as occurring in
that city recently:
ga few months since a gentleman came
to Memphis with his family, consisting Of
his wife and FIVE children-the eldest girl
about twelve years old; the second boy Of
nine. Shortly after reaching the city the
wife sickened and died, aud was buried in
ElmWoOd Cemetery. Having lost every
thing by the war, the poor fellow had a
hard time to keep the wolf from the door.
Though fitted for almost any kind of bust
ness, necessity compelled him to work as a
laborer. A few weeks since he fell from
the scaffold Of a new house aud broke his,
ribs, rendering him unable to work for
months. The neighbors were kind, how
ever, and ministered to their necessities,
for which may God reward them A few
days since be received letter from a rela-
tive down the river offering him home for
himself and little ones. His neighbours again
came to his assistance and contributed the
necessary funds to pay his expenses. Yes
terday they were to take the boat, and all
was ready, but in the morning the boy dis
appeared. As the hours rolled by without
his appearing, the father be came uneasy.
Twelve o'clock came-one-two-thre
hours passed, and still "Willie" was miss

presented himself, evidently almost exhaust

Swift it glideth like stream
Mind you make the best of it
Talk not eff your weary woes,

Cast away his darker part,
Cling to what's divine in him.
Friendship is our best relief
Make no heartless jest of it;

But a calm, contented mind,
That will make the best of it.

Sorrows or the rest of it
We shall overcome them all,
