Unburied for Twenty Years.

A horrible discovery was made re-
Gently at house at Hockey, Birming-
ham, Eng. The Relieving Officer, on
visiting an old man named Owen.
whom he found sleeping on heap of
rags and horsehair, noticed large,
coftin-shaped box in a downstairs
room. Owen, on being questioned,
said it contained the body of his sister,
who died in Islington Workhouse twen-
ty years ago. She had horror of being
buried by the parish, and he promised
to remove her remains from the work
house and have them buried at Bir-
mingham. He conveyed the body in a
zinc shell, with an outer wooden cof-
fin. On arriving in Birmingham he
could not induce his relatives to help in
defraying the expense of the funeral.
so he determined to keep the corpse in
the house. On the coffin, which had a
glass lid, being opened, the body was
found to be much decomposed ald
quite unrecognizable. The stencil was
dreadful. For. fifteen years no one had
entered the mans house, and he was
never known to have light. The cof.
fin was originally bound with iron
hoops: but Owen became SO impover.
ished that he took them off and sold
them to obtain food. On several occa-
sions zymotic diseases broke out in.the
neighborhood of the house. - London

q Georgia Cracker, Miss Lulu Hurst. Young,

her Lindley Murray is o. 4. or not, is

CASTING THE FIRST STONE.

The Master wrote upon the ground;
The mocklng rabble closed around.
Across the Temples golden wall
The slanting shafts OF sunshine fall;
The gentle Syrian summer breeze
Blows softly in the olive trees;
The morning air hangs fresh and cool
Above Siloam's CLASSY pool;
And out beyond the Gethsemane.
Where banks of valley lilies be-
Where cedar shadows yet lie deep,
The shepherds early lead their sheep.
The woman stood within the place,
And yelled her frightened, sinful face.
She heard the loud accusing tones,
She saw the hard avenging stones;
She knew that soon her broken form
Would sink beneath the cruel storm.
Amid those sewage cries she heard
Not one pleading, pit ing word.
Her fate was fxed-a dismal death
Would draw away her final breath;
Her bones would bleach upon the heaps
Down in Gehennas graveless deeps.
The Master rose from off the ground;
He saw the rabble close around.
He, in the Heavenly Fathers name.
Had cured their sick-had healed their lame;
Woke the hesleepers-rais the dead,
The thirsty filled-the hungry fed:
Had heard them cry out for HIS blood,
Az when the raving. wolfish pack,
Flies yelping on the travellers track!
Who hath not sin, and he alone!"
Ihe MaSter Sald, may cast the 9tOne.
The woman kneeled within the place..
And bowed her softened, sinful face.
The night was past. the stars had set,
The day stood over Oivet;
The first clear radiance of the sun
Lay pure on lofty Lebanon!
The cripple bathed his weary limb
Below Bethesda's bubbling brim;
The Levite Lit the altar fires,
The temple harper struk his wires;
Der cedar grove, DER stately palm,
Arose the Jewish morning psalm!
The Master leaked; the crowd had gone
Like nermon's dew before the dawn.
As drsky spirits wing away
Far from the breaking beams of day
Each one had vanished from his place.
Nor showed his vile accusing face.
Judge thee not! this is the door.
10 enter in and sin no more!
Who hither comes, tho naught they bring.
Shall find the Purifying Spring!
In garments clean forever be.
I am the Light-waik ye in Mel"
