shaped themselves in this song. How,

pray for joy, and my soul blessed the
Lord, aud word followed word like water
from a fountain. Stop he cried,
listen once more /:
" Nor in the heat of pain and strife,
Think God hath cast thee off unheard;
Nor that the man whose prosperous life
Thou envicst, is of him preferred
Time pr'sseth, and much change doth bring,
And sets bound TO everything.
"All are alike before his face
'Tis easy TO our God Most high
To make the rich man poor and base.
To give the poor man wealth and joy.
True wonders still of him are wrought.
Who setteth UP and brings to naught.
"Sng, pray, and swervo not from his yays,
But do thine own part faithfully;
Trust his rich promises of grace,
SO shall it be fulfilled in thee
God never yet forsook at need
The soul that trusted him indecd.'"
When he ceased for the second time,
he was so much moved that he put away
the violoncello in the corner, and the
little audience quitely dispersed.
Such is the story of one of the most
beautiful of all the German hymns, one
Of those which has preached the truest
sermon to troubled and fretted and des-
pairing hearts. After two years, Baron
von Rosenkranz procured his secretary
the post of Librarian of the Archives at
Weimar, and there he peacefully died
in his sixty-frst year. He wrote much,
verses indeed almost innumerable.
But the legacy he left to the Church was

A HOG IN HooPs.-The VergenDes
Vermonter tells the following ludicIous
story A few days since lady residing
in the eastern part of the State, having
just returned from an evenings enter
tainment, hearing noise on the back
stoop, long and very narrow one, she
stepped out to ascertain the cause, At
the further end she discovered the in
truder in the shape of good sized hog.
She at once assumed belligeront atti.
tude and commenced screaming Whee I,
whee The hog took the alarm aud
made for the door, and discovering the
largest space to be between the lady's
two feet, pitched for that, and she ina
stantly assumed.Ea horizontal position
and movement for the door. But to
prevent a Premature elopement she
caught hold Of post and her hoops
caught the hog. His swineship at once
found himself incarcerated in hoops.
Then came the struggle, womaa's de-
termination against hogs villa con-
test not unequal, but as persistent as it
was ludicrous. The noise brought the
lady's good mother to the scene, but
what could she do ? although the
squoaling Of tho pig AMI the positive
assertion that she should be killed,
was hard for fond mother to hear
without lending assistance. A com
promise was unavoidable, and to effect
this, the hoops were unflsteucd, and
away went his pigship, arraycl in hi'
new attire, lacking only one thiLg to
make him respectfully dressed, viz, I

THE FALL FROM HORSEBACK.

On morning of November, in the year 1868,
Lord Ruthven, young Scottish nobeman who
had come to Virginia in the suite of the new Cover
nor, Lord Botetourt while riding along Gloucester
street in Williamsburg, was violently thrown from
his horse, and for some moments, lay quite insensi
BILE.
The origin Of the accident was trivial. Lord
Ruthven had been proceeding at gallop towards
the Governors "palace" his rein grasped careless
", and his eyes fixed absently upon the ground,
when just as he passed the Office Of the Virginia
Gazette, ayoung gentleman, onhorseback abruptly
unfolded copy of the journal.
Lord Ruthven horse, q spirited and badly train
ed animal, had SHE'D violently, and thrown his ri
der, whose head struck as he fell.
In an instant, the young man. whose action had
caused this misfortune, had dismounted and has
tened to render assistance to the nobleman. Other
persons speedily ran to the spot, and among these,
tall, reserved.looking Scotchman, whowas recog-
nized as the body of Lord Ruthven. He
raised the inanmate form of his master, and assist
ed by the youth, bore him to the Raleigh Tavern,
near at hand, where restoratives were rapidly and
skilfully applied.

and opened his eyes; as they fell upon the young
man who had caused the accident, every one OBJ
served that the nobleman started.
"Kou hereP' he gasped, with long fixed look
''good heavens, sir!-how has it happened that in
spite Of"
Here he paused, overcome by weakness and
closing his eyes, seemed about to faint again
'Your presence appears to agitate his Lordship,
sir" said the doctor, respectfully addressing the
youth, "and perhaps it would be better for you te
retire"
''Agitate him! my presence!" replied the aston
ished young man. 'But your observation is just
sir-it plainly does. I cannot conceive the origir
of this agitation" :"

His poverty As if that could make any differ
ence with herI And the proud, true hearted girl
blushed crimson at the very fancy, that such a
thing could be attributed to her. Why, she loved
him thousand times more for that poverty The
noblest men of history had been proud to be poor,
and found in quiet thoughts and noble labor, q
greater happiness than the wealthiest pretender
ever felt in his riches. Edmund might be poor in
worldly wealth, but he was richer in heart and in
tellect, than any one else whom she had ever seen
His very worn and discolored coat became him
better, than the richest embroidered silk and velvet
on another His hat might be all frayed and old,
but when he bowed before q lady, it was like a
princes coronet And then his poor house to
which she had often ridden, in her girlhood-
what if it were not as fine as Blenheim or Haddon
It was warm and comfortable, and very pretty
among the evergreens and tulip trees. The proud;
est girl in all Virginia, might be happy to live
there - with Edmund!
There, with quick, guilty blush, theyoung lady
stopped. Her reverie had led her on thoughtless-
ly to a point from which she recoiled =,
"No, nol'' she murmured, II did not mean
that I was only dreaming day-dreams, and am
very foolish. Edmund is nothing to me, and !
must not let him think that he is. Poor fellow
I fear he loves me, but he will soon get over it
The young girls in Williamsburg are very beaui-
ful-they say; and hope he will soon find one
who will make him forget me. That would make
me very happy" =. w
And as though to prove her assertion, Honoria
sighed more deeply than before. 's'.:Ets s

Sir Rein was seated in his comfortable leathern
arm chair, reading the Vrginia Gazette, by the
light of two candles in lofty silver candlesticks,
which a servant had just placed upon the table in
front of the cheerful blaze.
The apartment was nearly surrounded with
shelves, containing large miscellaneous library,
and possessed every adjunct Of ease and comfort
The baronet, in the midst Of these agreeable
surroundings, was good specimen, in appearance
and bearing, of the lord of the manor. He was
TALL porty, and consequential-richly clad, and
unbending. Proud of his lineage, proud Of him
self, proud of his knighthood, he had learned to
treat every one with distant poEteness and never
to relax from his fancied dignity. Not unkindly,
where his rooted prejudices were respected, bis
manners had rendered him generally unpopular,
and he was regarded by theneighbors as the incar-
nation of stiffness and pompous assumption.
Sir Rein extended two fingers to hnis, without
rising from his chair, and inquired the result Of
his journey. The youth seemed to be quite habit
uated to this GOODNESS, and drawing chair to the
fire, proceeded to give an account OF the business
which had taken him to Williamsburg.
As that business has no connection with our
chronicle, we refrain from recording the converse
ton which ensued. The young man had just fin
isbed and Sir Rezn was calmly returning to his
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1867-12-16
