THE IDIOT GIRL,
BY REV. r. HEMPSTEAD.

And turn along the fowery earth
Thy dull, unheeding eye:
Go listen to the glancing birds,
The murmur of the tree,
And watch the honeysuckle bend
Beneath the glossy bee:
Stand where the lakelet's lucid tides
Before the breezes curl
But what are wood, or flower, or song,
The flush of Spring, the vocal throng
Of bird and bee, the moan along
The hoary pines-what can they be,
What can they speak or sing to thee,
Poor little idiot girl!
o! fearfuly, unequally,
Our weary life is bound
In darkness, and in tears, and wrapt
In mystery profound.
The hand that arms the earthquake,
The hand that pours the sea,
And paints the iii cups, hath dealt,
Oh darkly dealt with thee.
Earth bears upon her bosom
Full many mournful place.
From which hath passed into the dark
Each human form and face;
But what are saddest ruins,
OF palace, hearth, or hall,
The shadow and the mould that creep
Along the crannied wall:
What are the desoations
OF real or royal fame,
ne colh.nhs crushed, the temple hurled
,, along me desert pam

In endless exile from the flowers,

Next.
OTTAWA, G. W., August This has been an
important day III Parliament. The School bill
OF the coalition was ag lii taken up, and the
discussion OF it progressed with increasing
acrimouy every moment, Mr.. Brown making
some good hits at the coalI ion, and the oppo-
sinun seeming to gain ground constantly. So
the House appeared pretty equally divided.
The first symptom OF crash was the an
nouncement by the Attorney General OF the re.
slqnatiOn by Mr.. Gait OF his otlice IN the Cabl-
net and the reason O it, which was 5 ated to be
his dissent from the coalition on tue School bill.
The discussion went on Tor some ume further,
until 1t was apparent the Oppos ition was in the
ascendancy, wnen the mover OF the bill at length
announced its withdraw al in time to save the
Ministry the dlscrcdit OF an open defeat. This
created a sensation and put an end to the dis
cusson; but the Liberals claim with justice that
the coalition is virtually defeated upon a mea-
sure brought forward by themselves, and that
they should therefore reslen.
MIR. Galt has announced his intention of con-
tinuing TO assist the Government to manage the
fnances.
The currency question next came up, and on
this, too, the Ministry have been compelled to
SO lar modify their original policy OF controlling
the cuuency of the country to the control OF
only SIS, 900, 600, and even this power has not yet
been decided in their favor.

An Upright Judge.

Judge HILL, Of Mississippi, following Judge
BUSTED, of Alabama, who was Brigadier
General in the United States army, and other
authorities, has decided the Test Oath to be
unconstitutional.
The New York Tribune calls this showing
a " chivalric contempt for the laws of the
land" Very good what then has it to say Of
the little man who allowed the attorneys of
Richmond to renew their practice in the
United States Courts without expressing any
opinion? What sort OF contempt for the laws
Of the land will it call this? And while we
are asking questions, how does it explain the
artful lodges which have been resorted to by
Chief Justice CHASE to evade this very ques-
ton? It's a great pity we hav'nt more Of just
this sort of constitutional contempt of the test
oath in the land, which it denounces in
Judge HILL. 1t would be powerful
tonic in restoring the wasted energies of the
country.

Murder Will Out.

Truth, says a familiar maxim, is stranger
than fiction and of this, some startling illus
tration turns up now and then to make us
pause a moment and reflect.
The murder of DUNCAN in his sleep, and
the death of the courtier behind the arras, are
copied over and over, and over again, with
grim accuracy. Sometimes we see the par
ticulars paraded in the daily papers with a
horrible minuteness, which attracts almost
universal attention ..ig .a.
But who can tell how many tragedies have
played out with not even a flight of obser-
wing cranes to behold them There is wide
and CHASTITY field to speculation opened here !;
and these reflections lose none of their point
by statement which appears in the New
York News. 1t seems that gang of aborers
in excavating for foundation on Carmine
street, struck upon two human skeletons
Whose were they When buried ? Did
