4 touching incident occurred at tie

thirty-iive years OLD, in the garb Of n:ourn-

she could hardly make the object Of her
visit known on account Of her emotion.
She was of delicate frame Of easy and
graceful manners, and, but for the rnyagcs
Of care upon her face, N ght still have been
beautiful. At length she took 4 ring from
pretty little morocco case, upon the
pledge Of which she wished to realize
such an amount Of money Is would sustain
herself and children through the winter.
The extortionor took the rig in his fin
gers, and, holding it up to the window. pre-
tended to examine it-assuming at the
same time an air Of affected disarroint-
ment; he began at once to deprcciate the
article, declaring that it was nothing bat
an Alaska crystal, and that he woald
hardly take it at any price. He was mex
orablc,and pcrcmptorily refused to advance
more than four or five dollars Tears

proceeding, stepped forward and declared
that that beautiful ring should not be
sacrificed to the Jew in that way. The
broker at once endeayorcd to hasten mat

been completed, would have succeeded in
thrusting the jewel into the drawer but
for the resolution of the gentleman, who
seized and saved It. The wretch mu'tercd

Speak kindly, 8 nt)y to thy wife,
She knows enough Of sorrow:
Oh, seek not from each petty i'll.
An angry word to borrow.
For in her heart there treasured love;
On, prize its golden worth;
One gentle word, one smile of thine,
Can ever call it forth
When thou art harsh, and stern and cold,
And from thine own dear homo
The sunshine Of domestic love
In sorrow seeks to roam.
Upon her heart thy cold words fall
And chill life's tender life;
Then, oh, amidst thy trials all,
Speak kindly . thy wife,
Speak softly, kindly to thy wife;
She may have left a home.
OF cherished love, and to thine own
But scarce as far have come,
Though FIVE or ten have Id the time,
And thou hast shared its strife
Whenever thy footsteps homeward turn,
Speak kindly to thy wife.
Speak kindly, gently to thy wife,
She may be growing old,
And soon ye both may garnered lie
