several grown up young men and young
ladies. Her plan was simple. She
said che had always loved him for his
good qualities, and now that she had
ample means, desired nothing more than
to take care of him. for she knew
he had never been able to take care of
himself. Tom accepted the chain on these
terms. They were married. His debts
were paid; he re ceived all the comforts
that his moderate tastes required, and the
children, esteeming his character and the
happiness of their mother, treated him
with the greatest respect and consideration.
The household arrangements Of this es-
timable couple were simple as they were
singular. They occupied opposite and dis

Thereupon he drew from his pocket q
paper which he passed to the man nearest

the cash" The document read somewhat
thus:
Mr.. Peter B. Lee:
We, the undersigned, having known you
during long course of years, admiring
your character and your devotion to the
craft, whisky, and pedestrian exercise, do
hereby contribute for your benefit the sums
severaily set opposite our names, as
reward of merit and token of esteem.
upon condition that you will Immediately

He stood before the Sanhedrim;
The scOwling rabbis gazed at him.
He rocked not Of their praise or blame;
There was no fear, there was no shame,
For one upon whose dazZled eyes
The whole world poured its vast surprise.
The open heaven WAS tar too near,
His first day light too sweet and clear,
To let him waste his new gained ken
On the hate clOuded face Of men.
But still they questioned, Who art thoui
What hast thou boenl What art thou nov 7
Thou art not he who yesterday
Sat here and begged beside the way;
For he was blind

For was blind, but now see.
He told the story DER and o'er;
1t Was his full hearts only lore;
A prophet on the Sabbath day
Had touched his sightless eyes with clay,
And made him see who had been blind,
Their words passed by him like the wind
Which raves and howls but can not shock
The hundred fathom-rooted rock.
Their threats and fury all went wide;
They could not touch his Hebrew pride;
Their sneers at jesus and his band
Nameless and homeless in tho land.
Their boasts of Moses and his Lord,
All could not change him by one word.

One thing know, that am he
Who once was blind. and now 1 see.
They were all doctors of renown
The great men of q famous town,
With deep br0ws, wrinkled, broad and wise
Beneath their broad phylacteries;
The wisdom of the East was theirs,
And honor crowned their silver hairs.
The man they jeered and laughed to scorn
Was unlearned, poor and humbly born;
But he knew better far than they
What came to him that Sabbath day,
And what the Christ had done for him
He knew, and not the San hedrim.

Cayuga County, n. Y, has been hor-
ritied by another bloody tragedy. Early
on last Sunday morning, 18th inst, w.
Harrison Andrews, residing about 2
miles southwest of Venice Centre, in
that county, entered the bedchamber of
his son Victor, a young man, while the
latter vas asleep, and dealt him two
blows on the head with a Ratchet, bury
ing the weapon in his brain. He then
notified his daughters, two young ladies',
that their brother was sick, and, after
they bad entered his bedroom, the IA
Their also entered witha revolver, with the
avowed intention of finishing the job"
and fired at one of them, the ball taking
effect in the abdomen of Mary, the
younger of the two. The two ladies
then escaped from the house and fled to
a neighbours. Before the neighbors
could arrive at the bloody scene, the in
man had set fire TO the house, in
tending to burn It up, and, putting the re-
volver TO his head, blew his brains out,
dying instantly. At last accounts the
son was still alive, though not expected
to survive, and the wounded daughter
was in a fair way of recovery. Mr.. An
drews was a farmer in comfortable cir
cumstances, a widower, and has been
very V and subject TO melancholy
at times, so much SO that his family
were fearful that he would commit some
violence for a long time past. He was
evidently insane.

Successful Undertaking.

An enterprising undertaken in a town
heal New London discovered, one day
recently, that a wealthy stranger in
town was dangerously sick, and, seeing
a job, went to work without any orders
making an elegant coffin for him. To
his disgust. however, the sick man, soon
after the coffin was done, began to re-
cover, and the undertaker's friends be-
gan TO laugh at him. The invalid, how
ever, had a relapse on aceout of sudden
exposure and fell away again, but, see
ing that his end was near, desired his
wife TO take him to his home in Western
New York to die. This stirred up the
undertaken. and he went 10 the woman
and urged her to buy the coffin to take
with her, as he might die ON the way
and il was best to be prepared for any
event. His eloquence prevailed and the
coffin was purchased. "Wal, fotched
him at last" was the undertaker's re-
mark, as he exhibited the fruits of his
enterprise to his friends.-SpriRgfed
