REMARKABLE RELIGIOUS MANI
FEsTATIoNs.-A revival is in pro-
gress at the Emanuel A. NJ. E.
Church, in Calhoun street, at which
large crowds Of colored people are in
attendance nightly. When the con-
gregation- is dismissed, it is regular
thing for two, three and sometimes
more females to be carried home
through the streets in state of real
or apparent iuseusibility. The ir-
variable response to the inquiries of
the curious, is that the subject has
been "couverted." To all appear
ances the converts are dead, as they
lie rigid and perfectly passive iu the
arms of their friends. 1t is probable
that they either really do faint from
intense excitement and the heat in
the crowded church, or hold the re-
lapsing into a state of helplessuess to
be a special sign Of grace. Every.
night, at about eleven o'clock, several
of these seeming corpses are borne
down Meeting street.

BESIEGED.

I was sixteen years old the first
fall 1 ever tried to trap beaver.
1t was in October Of that year
that | met with the following ad-
venture:
I had been looking forward to a
iaunt for beaver all summer. The
fall before, while trapping mink,
on what was called Wild Stream,
lad discovered a little lake,
deep back in the woods, with a
beaver dam at the outlet which
ran down a thickly-woodcd hol-
low.
1t was late one bitter, cloudy
afternoon when I found the lake.
had six miles to 60 to get to my
camp, and merely had time to
notice that there were two beaver
houses a hundred yards or so
above the dam. That night it be-
gan to snow, and | went home
without revisi:ing the place that
fall.
But l had kept the locality we'll
in mind, and as soon as the crops
were harvested, I set off with my
traps up Wild Stream, determined
to have those beaver.
Following up the hollow about
four or FIVE miles, l built camp
about two miles below the outlet
Of the>lake; not daring to build it
neal er, for fear the smell Of my
fire might reach the beaver. There
| passed the night, and about ten
o'clock next forenoon went up to
the dam with my traps.
1t was nice little lake, sur
rounded with black growth: and
right across the outlet the beaver
had run as pretty a dam as ever
bunters set eyes on. 1t was
"crowning" up stream, and a few
rods above it were three huts,
which stood up out Of the slack
water as large as a good-slzed
haycock.
| concluded there might be
from fifteen to twenty beaver
| there; for they generally live in
| families of from four to ten. And
besides the three perfect houses,
there was a fourth, which | at
first took for an unfinished house.
Bnt on going around to the other
side, it looked to me more like a
hut that had been broken into
tor there was a ragged hole in the
top Of it as large as bushel
basket.
l looked all along the shore to
see whether there were any
tracks either of man or creature,
but discovered nothing except
some scratches on an old log that
lay partly in the water. These
scratches, however, were evident
ly the marks Of claws.
There were no beavers in sight,
for it is rare that they show
themselves, either ashore or swim
ming: by daylight. But l could
hear one "slap" the water now
and then inside the houses.
I thought that | would set my
traps at first along the bank at
leach end of the dam, where | So"

There were none like him in those days
So strong, so true, so wise;
He had lofty, marble brow
And tender, soaful eyes.
A voice of music; hair by which
The ravens wing would seem
But pale, indeed face and form
To haunt sculptor's dream.
But when I looked at him tonight

OF the old glory-only just
A very common face.
No marble brow, no soul-lit orbs;
The face was round and sleek
That once to my lovc-haunted eyes
Was so intensely Greek.

So very much. All, me!

And now, alas! see.
IT'S very dreadful to be blind,

One little thought will trouble me-

Whether he still is blind, or if
His eyes are open too.
