SIMPLICITY OF TRUTH.
1 witnessed a short time ago, in one of our
hiffh courts, a beautiful illustration of the
simplicity and pow er of troth:
A little girl nine years ot age, was offered
as a witness against a prisoner who was on
trial tor felony committed in nor fathers
h °“Now, Emily!” said the counsel fer tile-
prisoner, upon-her being offered as a wit
ness, “I desire to nmlei-stand if you know
the nature of an oath ?”
“I don’t know what you mean, was too
simple answer. ..
■ “There, your honor,” said tho counsel,
addressing the oourt, “is anything hirlker
necessary to demonstrate the aalidity ofmy
objections? This witness should be reject
ed. Sho does not comprehend the nature
ofan oath.” - .
<-L-et us sec,” said tho Judge, “como here
"^Assured by the kind tone and planner of
tho Judge, tho child stepped towards him
and looked confidently up iii liis face witlra
calm, clear eye, and in a manner so artless
.and frank that It went straight to the heart
“Didy(pi evor take an oath?” inquired
The litfrq girl stepped back with A look
ofhorror, and the red blood mantled in a
blusli all over her face arid neck; a& «snc an-
swered, “No sir.” Sho thought ho intend
ed to inquire if slie-had over blasphemed.
"I do not mean that,” said the Judge, who
saw hfr mistake. “I mean were you eyer -
witness before?”
He banded her the Bible open.-
“Do you know that book,-my daughter?
toked at it and answered “Yes sir,
THE NATIONAL CONVENTION!
The Baltimore Sun says the first ausph

country its-Deolaration of Independence.—
Another assemblage, of the delegates of the
people at tho same, city promulgated the

p h ,l h gathering has crowned the labors of the first

“Do you ever-read it?” he asked.
“Yes, sir—every evening.” _ . •
“Can you tell me what the Biblo.rs ?
“It is the Word of the great God,”
answered. ■ ,. ,
“Well, place your liifid upon this Bible
and listen to what I say,” and ho repeated
alowly-and solemnly the oath usually ad
ministered to witnesses. - • .
- “How,” said the Judge, “ytra have been
sworn as a witness—will y.ou tell. me what
will befall you if you do not tell tho truth? ’
“I Bhall lie slmt up in the State prison,’.’
answered tho chihl.
- “Anything else ?” asked, the- J udge.
“I shall never go to Heaven.”
“How do you know?” asked the Judge
again. - .
Tho child took the Bible, and turning rap
idly to the chapter containing _ the com
mandments, pointed to the injunction,
“Thou shalt not bear falso witness against
thy neighbor.” ‘.‘I learned that,” she said,
“before I could read.” . - _
“Has any one talked with you about your
. being a witness here in court-against this
man ?” inquired the J ndge.
“Yesj sir,” she replied; “my mother heard
they wanted me to be a witness, and last
night she called me'into her room and asked
me to tell her the ten commandments, and
then'we kneeled down together, and she
. . prayedthat I might understand how wicked
it was to bear false witness against. my
neighbor, and that God would help me, a
litth) child, to tell the truth as it was before
him. And when I came hero with father,
she kissed me, and tolif me to remember the
ninth commandment, and that God would,
hear every word IsaitC” •- ■ •/
“Doyoubelrcvethis?” asked the Judge,
with a tear glistening in liis eye and his lips
quivering with emotion.
“Yes, sir,” said the child, with a voice and
manner that showed her conviction of the
troth was perfect..
• “Godblcss you, my child,” said the J udge,
“you have a good mother. This witness is
eompgteht,” ho continued. “Were I on
trial for ray life, and innocent of the charges
against me, I would pKhy God for such a
witness as this. Lather he examined.”
• She told her story- with the simplicity of
a child as she was, out thcro was a direct
ness about it which carried conviction of its
truth toe very heart.' She was rigidly cross-
examined. The counsel plied her with in-
: finite and ingenious questioning, but slie
' varied from her first statement in nothing.—
The truth -as spoken bv that child was su
blimed Falsehood and peijnry had prccc-
- ded her testimony.. .ThW prisoner had en
trenched himself in lies, until- be deemed
himself impregnable. Witnesses hadfalsi-
fied facts in his favor, find villainy had man
ufactured a sham defense, bnPbefore her tes
timony ialcshood was scattered like chaff.
The littie child, for whom a mother had
prayed for strength to bo givenher to speak
the truth as it Was before God, broke the
' cunning devices of matured villainy in pieces
■like a potter’s vessel. The strength that the
. mother had prayed for was given her, the
sublime and terrible simplicity (terrible I
mean to the prisoner and ms perjured asso
ciates) with which she spoke, was like a rev
elation from God himsejf.

An amusing incident is told of a woman
Jn England, whose husband, a wealthy man
died suddcnlv, without leaving any will.—
Thc widow* desirous of securing the whole
property, concealed her ' husband's death,
and persuaded a poor shoemaker to take
his place while a will could be made. Ac
cordingly,' lie was closely muffled in bed,
if very* sick, and a lawyer was called to
write' the will. Thc shoemaker, in a feeble
voice; bequeathed half of all the property to
the widow. “What shall be done with thc
remainder?” asked the lawyer. “The re
mainder,” replied he, “I give and bequeath
to the poor little shoemaker across, the street
who.has always been a good neighbor and
deserving man,” thus securing a rich be
quest for himself, The widow was thunder
struck at thc man’s audacious cunning, but
