blame not that your courage failed,
That prudence over love prevailed;

Rough ways through wild aRd storinJ MealAei
And you must have smooth paths 70 treao'
And Skies all cloudless overhead.
Wise was your choice the world VIII say
That sees you fresh and fair To-Day
AS In the spring time OF your Years,
Those hazel eyes undmmed Win tears,
That forehead all uRlined with care,
Nor streaEed with gray that chestnut mar.
Yet II you could have dared to lay
Unfalterns hands In mine, anu say,
al trust you STILL nor count the cost ~
Something doubt not, you mad lost,
Yet found when all was told, remain
To you and me some larger gain.
Not love!ess and unSweet my days,
toll nor miss some need OF praise;
Had you been with rue they had known
The grace they lack, and thou hadst gro"n'
weak but pure and tender heart
Te something nobler than thou art.
All better had we both been laid
TO rest forever. ere The shade
or that cold worldliness had maae
Division worse than death, anu oaue
Our souls be parted evermore,
Still strangers TO the heavenly shore.

into lengthy description Of their merits &c.
There IS hardly city or town OF any note III the

and daily increasing demand Is owing entirely 10
their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth.

their Quality, and now we firmly and honestly BE-
leve that they stand without . rival. Our Vanilla

short we think 1t the Test that Is made, ut least,
this ~ the decision OF the best judges In the coun

undeserving Of the name.

are laid flat on their backs on a bench; their
hands, feet and breast are securely fastened
10 it. and the executioner then draws from
his belt small knife with very sharp
blade, and cuts the throat of the struggling
criminal. Sometimes, when the latter be-
longs to deserving family, the executioner,
before cutting his throat, knocks him on the
head with wooden club so as to stun him.
Criminals who commit offenses OF less I'M
DortaDce are more or less severely .cudgeled.
Women are whipped with birch rod, and,
if they are habitual thieves, they are,
besides, branded on the right shoulder with
a red-hot iron. A very peculiar punishment
is inflicted on adulterers and adulteresses.
They are put into pillory for three hours,
and two holes are then cut in their noses.
The mans hair is shaved off, and the woman
ia branded on her left breast.
