BEAUTIFUL TnouGHT.-We know not the
author of the following, but it is one of the
most beautiful productions we ever read:
Nature will be reported All things are
engaged in writing their own history. The
plant and the pebble go attended by their
shadow. The rock leaves its scratches on
the mountain side, the river its bed in the
soil, the animal leaves bone in the stratum,
the fern and the leaf their modest epitaph in
the COAL The falling drop makes its epitaph
in the sand or stone; not a footstep in the
snow or along the ground, but prints in char
acter more or less lasting, map OF its march;
every act of man inscribes itself ON the mems
cries Of its fellows, and in his own face. The
cir is full of sound; the sky of tokens, the
ground is all memoranda signatures and every
object is covered over with hints which speak

OVER at Augusta, Hancock county, Ill,
occurred the following outrage day or two
ago. which is thus related by the Augusta
Banner;
"On Saturday night last miserable scamp
entered the house OF an elderly maiden lady,
Of this place, Familiarity called Aunt Pruey
Mead. The old lady, hearing noise in
another room from where she slept, suppos-
ing girl who resides with her was up in her
sleep, went into the girls room, without a
light, and took hold of the girl, as she sup.
posed, to put her back into bed, but she soon
found she had taken hold of man instead
and sprang back In surprise, of course. The
rascal grasped the ord lady by the throat i'm
mediately. saying. am crazy, if you speak |
will kill you" She struggled from him suffi.
GENTLY to tell the girl to alarm the neghbors,
when the villain pushed the old lady down on
the floor against book case, bruising her
severely, and made his escape through the
window. The old lady is suffering much
from her choking and bruises. On Monday
the perpetrator of this fendish outrage,
Frank Brophy, was captured, examined and
bound over in the sum of $500 bail, in de-
fault of which he was sent up to the county
boarding house to await trial.
