morning of last week, in an unconscious

He was on his way home from Boston,
and it was thought by some had taken
an overdose of laudanum, to alleviate
pain, but the more generally received
opinion seems TO be that he committed
suicide, as We understand he was subject
to attacks of melancholy, though at the
time of this writing we have but few
circumstances attending his death.

A Cool nand.


When Mr.. John Clerk, afterwards Lord
El6in,) was admitted to the bar, he was
remarkable for the sang.froid with which
he treated the judges. On one occasion a
junior counsel, on hearing their lordships
give Judgment against his client, exclaimed
that he was surprised at such decision" +"
This was construed into contempt of
court, and he was ordered to attend at the
bar next morning. Fearful of the conse-
quences, he consulted his friend, John
Clerk, who told him to be perfectly at ease
for he would apologize for him in way
that would avert any unpleasant result.
Accordingly when the name of the delin-
quent was called, John Clerk, arose, and
coolly addressed the assembled tribunal
"I am very sorry, my lords, that my
young friend has so far forgotten himsell
as TO treat your honorable bench with dis
respect; he is extremely penitent, and you
will kindly ascribe his unintentional insult
to his ignorance; you must see at once thai
it did originate in that. He said that hs
was surprised al the decision of your lord
ships. Now, if he had not been very igno
rant of what takes place in this court ever,
day--had he known you but half so lonl
as have done-he would not be surprises
as anything you did"

A Nanny HOme..

The first year of married life lisa. most
important era in the history of man and
wife, Generally, as it is spent, so is almost
all subsequent existence. The wife and
the husband then assimilate their views
and their desires, or else, coniuring up
their dislikes, they add fuel to their pref
udices and animosities forever afterward.
81 have somewhere read, !" says Rev. Mr.
Wise, in his Bridal Greeting, "of BRIDE
groom who gloried in his eccentricities. He
requested his bride to accompany him to
the garden day or two after the wedding.
He then threw line over the roof of their
cottage Giving his wife one. side of it he
retreated to the other side and exclaimed:
"Pull the line."
She pulled it, at his request, as far as
she could. He cried
"Pull it over"
81 can't" she replied. .ti
"But pull with all your might" shouted
the whimsical husband.
But vain were all the efforts of the bride
to pull the line, so long as her husband
held on to the opposite end. But when he
came around and they both pulled at one
end, it came over with great ease.
"There,' said be, as the line fell from
the roof, Fyou see how hard and ineffect-
ual was our labor when we both pulled in
opposition to each other /; but how easy and,
pleasant it was when we both pulled to-
gether. 1t will be so with us through life,
my dear, if we oppose each other, it will
be hard work. If we act together it will
be always pleasant to live. Let us always
pull together Hm lal tHa
In this illustration, homely as it may be,
there is sound philosophy. Husband and
wife must mutually bear and concede, if
they wish to make home retreat of bliss.
One alone cannot make home happy.
| There must be unison of action, sweet
ness of spirit, and great forbearance and
love in both husband and wife, to secure
the great end of happiness in the domestic
| circle,

Curran and the Judge.

Soon after Mr.. Curran had been called to
the bar, on some statement of Judge Rob-
inson's, the young counsel observed that
"he had never met the law, as laid down
by his lordship, in any book in his library"
"That may be, sir" said the judge, "but
suspect that your library is very small"
Mr.. Curran replied, 81 find it more in
structive, my Lord, to study good works
than to compose bad ones.* My books may
be few; but the title pages give me the wri-
ter's names, and myself is not disgraced by
any such rank absurdities that their very
authors are ashamed to own them"
"Sir," said the judge, "you are forget
ting the respect which,you owe to the dig
nifty of the judicial character" "Digni-
ty p exclaimed Mr.. CuTan; "My Lord,
upon that point l shall cite you case from
book of some authority, with which per-
haps you are not unacquainted.
He then briefly recited the story of
Tray, in Roderick Random, who having
stripped off his coat to fight, entrusted it to
bystander. When the battle was over,
and he was.well beaten, he turned to re-
sumo but the man had carried it off. Mr.,
Curran thus applied the tale:-"So, my
Lord when the person entrusted with the
dignity of the Judgment seat lays it aside
for a moment TO enter into adisgraceful
personal contest, it is in vain when he has
been worsted in the encounterthat he seeks
to resume it--it is in vain that he tries 70
shelter himself behind an authority which
he has abandoned. 'a
"If. you say another word I'll commit
you," replied the angry judge to which
Mr.. Curran retorted; "If your lordship do
so, we shall both of us have the consolation
of reflecting, that am not the worst thing
your lordship has committed"

LONG AGO.

The twilight shadows are gathering gray,
And the wild wind walls DER the dying day,
As lie and list to the rivers flow,
And the far-off voices, 80 soft and low,
'ttatf OF thelong ago. A
The shadows thicken among the trees;
Sadly, mournfully murmurs the breeze;
And forms glide round me that nevermore
Shall gladden. my sight for they've ioated DER
To the unknown shore.
The moon looks out through the mantle Of night,
Flooding the earth with her liquid light;
Aud again live in the rythm and rhyme
or peaceful home and sunny cline,
In the olden time
On the murmuring river the moonbeams dance,
Gliding the waves as they simmer and glance
And, like ravishing strains from harp Of gold,
The interlude sweet to tale long told,
Come the songs Of old.
The dreams were all over, and darkened the sky;
The winds and the waves wander hstlessly by
And back to my dreary life, sadly go,
To dream nevermore of the bliss and the woe,
In the long ago.

Strange Story Of Secret Marriage.

In the Boston Herald strange story is
told concerning secret marriage. During,
the last eight or nine years, wealthy
widowed lady and her only son have lived
together at the North End, the latter dur
ing all that time exhibiting every sign of
the greatest filial devotion. During the lat
ter part of January last he died suddenly,
and, after his burial, young lady, for
whom he had occasionally during life ex-
pressed tender feeling, came to his moth
er, and, to the amazement Of that lady,
