LOVE. The love that survives the tomb
is the noblest attribute of the soul If it
has woes, it has likewise its delights and
when the overwhelming burst of grief is
lulled into the gentle tear of recollection
then the sudden anguish and convulsive
agony over the present ruin of all we most
loved are softened away into pensive medi-
tation OF all that it was in the days of its
loveliness. Who would root such days of
sorrow from the heart? Though it may
sometimes throw a passing cloud over
the bright hour OF gaiety, or spread a
deeper sadness over the hours OF gloom,
Yet who would exchange it for the song
of pleasure or tie burst of revelry? No;
there is a voice from the tomb swceter
than song there is a remembrance of the
dead to which we turn even from the
charm Of the living.

When Massachusetts does 90 into any
thing she does 50 with heart and soul.
There i, no doubt but in the palmy days
of slavery there, she used to whip mig
ger with a, much gusto rs she used to
stab the poor Indian in the name Of the
Lord and what is more she would be
likely 10 be doing the same thing now
if it did only pay But it didn't, and
So the next thing was to sell out and start
of on the high moral track with the
same zeal which has always
characterized her. Here of late, how
ever, these Jealous workings have been dl.
rrctcI in most unhappy channel-th"t
Of murder The deeds Of the boy PoME-
ROY have not vet ceased to make the
blood curdle at their recital; bat ne Is
now thrown in the shade by the latest
horror. We read that Sunday afternoon
some fcnd cm;iccd little girl, only five
yaars old, from the side of her
aunt. with whom she was attending
church. and having gotten her
up into the tower of the
church, attempted to murder her
by dashiug her little body with
All his strength against the floor Of the
lott. Could anything have been more
horrible, or dcmoniac! In other places
murders are committed its true; but they
are generally done in the old way; 1t IS
left TO Massachusetts, though, to devise
WAYS and means to add the spice OF nov
cI,y and additional cold bloodedness to her
.r,mc.. But of course, the man who did
thi, deed was insane, and should be ac-
quilted. All We have to say Is that, if this
deed had been done in Louisiana, and
that child had been black, howl would
have been heard all over the land, loud
enough to have called for the instant
service of SHERIDAN and his troops.
