The Long Ago.
Oh 1 ft wonderful St ream in the riTer Time,
As It runs through the realms nt tears,
With a faultless rhythm and a musical rhyme,
And a hroador sweep, and a surge sublime,
And bicuds with tho ocean of years.
Uow the winters are drifting like flakes of snow,
And the summers like buds between, m
And the year in the sheaf— so they come and they go
On the river’s breast, with its ebb and flow,
As it glides in theshadow and sheen.
There’s a magical isle up the river Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing;
There’s a cloudless sky and a tropical cliuie,
And a song as sweet as a vesper chime,
And the Junes with the roses are staying.
And the name of this isle is the Long Aon,
And we bury our treasures there ;
Then? are brows of beauty ami bosoms of snow—
Then* are heaps of dust, but we loved them so!
There are trlftkets and tresses of hair.
There arc fragments of song that nobody sings,
And a part of an infant’s prayer.
There’s a lute unswept, and a harp without strings,
There are broken vows, and pieces of rings,
And the garments that she used to wear.
There are h ois that are waved when the fairy
By the mirage is lifted in air;
And we sometimes hear through the turbulent roar,
Sweet voices we beard in the days gone before.
When the wind down the river is fair.
Oh ! remember for ayo be the blessed isle,
All the day of life till night— t % .
When the evening comes with its beautiful siftile,
And .our eyesare globed to slumber a while;! 2

Under tlie head of the first title
given above, the Herald (of which
George C. Harding, the father of
the Moritz victim, is editor,) of
last night, gives its opinion of
Sol. Moritz as follows. It is very
generally concurred in: It is
hard to kill certain beasts. The
hyena who has been tossing on a
bed of pain for tho past fortnight,
with two bullets in his foul car
cass, has lacked the decency to
die and sink to the hell that is
yawning for him. lie will he out

Judge Humphrey, Col. Swan,
old Andrews (whose plantation
was measured by the thousand

trout parlor playing a snug little
game of drawl All were heavy
butters when they held the cards;
but just then the cards were run

The Death of a Wife.
In comparison with the less of
a beloved /wile, what are otlu
bereavements? The wife! she
who tills so large a space in the
domestic heavens, she who is so
busied, so unwearied—bitter, hit
ter is the tear that tails upon her
grave. Von stand beside her
tomb, and think of the past ; fain
would the soul linger there. \<>
thorns are remembered above that
sweet clay., save that your own
band may nave unwillingly or un
kindly planted. Her noble, ten
der heart lies open to your inmost
sight. Vqu think ,of“ litjr as all
goodness, all purity and truth.
But she is dead*. The dear
head so often laid upon your
Itosom, nqw rests upon a pillow
of clay. Tho hands that minister
ed so untiringly are folded, white
and cold, beneath the gloomy
portals. The heart whose every
beat measured an eternity of love,
lies under your feet, And there
is no white arm over your shoul
der now—no speaking face to look
up into the eye of love—no trem
bling lips to murmur 'Oh, it is
sad?’ There is so strange a hush
hr every room! No smile to greet
you at nightfall—and the clock
strikes and ticks and strikes. It
was sweet music, when you could
count the hours with her—when
she could hear it! Now it seems
only the hours through which yon
watch the shadows of death gather
upon her dear face. But many a
tale it tells of joys past, sorrows
shared, and beautiful words and
deeds registered above. You toel
that the grave cannot keep her.
You know that she is often by
your side—an angel presence.
Cherish these emotions. They
will ninko you happier. Let her
holy presence he as a charm to
keep you from evil. In all new
and pleasant connections give her
a place in your heart. Never for
get what she has done for you—
that she has loved you. Be . ten
der of her memory.
To how many bereaved hearts
will these sentences come, who
will look back upon the past with
miuglcd recollections of sorrow
and joy—perhaps penitence. ' So
should live husbands and wives,’
says an old English worthy 'that
when cither dies, the spirits of
both may mingle.’

Our old, friend Harper, of tlje
Raymond tfaaU/e, has been shown
a copy of the Raymond’ : TYine-s
dated September 17, ! 1*41, or
nearly thirty-three years ago.
Among other iftjmv. of jut lives t
fttniwV recorded" in the - rolninits
of the Timex, the following is
quite suggestive just now. The
(iazette says:
"The paper contains an account
east, a pariah, a creature too vile
to associate with even the vilest
of human kind—an obscene lieast
whose bare presence pollutes the
air. Let jno man speak to him or
take him bv the, hand. Let every
woman gather up her skirts for
fear of contamination in passing
him on the street. Teach little
children to regard him as a thing
accursed. Let him, in the malst
of multitudes, feel the horrors of
solitude and the want of compan
ionship. Ilis own race and l'eli-
gion have driven him forth as
a moral leper. Let no one give
him shelter from the scorn and
contumely with which all decent
men regard a traitor, a coward, a
thief, a liar; and finally, if re
morse is possible to so heartless
a creature, let him fully realize
what men think ot him, and then
die of his own loathsomeness. In
this way, and in this way only,
can society punish him for his
crimes. The law is weak. Pub
lic sentiment is stronger than the
law. Let him feel the‘weight of
its scorn.—Indianapolis Sentinel

THE RAT 1 LESNAKE’S ENEMY.
Of ail the enemies with which the
rattlesnake hns to contend, except man,
tlie ho^ is the most destructive. An
old sow witli a litter of pigs to provide
for, will hunt for reptiles with a perse
verance and sagacity truly astonishing,
tracking them by their scent to their
hiding places, and never letting them
escape.
In the West, in early times, and
now throughtont the country, if rattle
snakes become trouhlesomein any locali
ty, a drove of hogs are turned into their
haunts, and the snakes soon disappear.
The hog, when it sees a rattlesnake,
instantly erects its bristles and hack,
and commences rattling its tusks. The
snake accepts the challenge and pre
pares for defence.
The hog seems to understand what
parts of its body are invulnerable to
poison, so it gets down upon its knees,
and in this awkward jiosition deliberate
ly crawls, by a sidelong motion, up to
tlie enemy.
The snake darts forward, and the
hog dexterously catches the fangs in
the fat of the jaws; the blow is repeat
ed, and the hog haying boen smitten
oh one cheek, deliberately turns the
.. other. This tho animal continues to
do until the snake has not only exhaus
ted, for the time being, its poison hut
also its strength. The' hog then delih-

TUB BIBLK.
Who composed the following
description of thc Bible we may
never know. It was found in
Westminster Abbey, nameless
and dateless, but nevertheless it
is invaluable for its’ wise aud
wholesome counsel to the race of
Adam :
A nation would lie truly happy
ed by no other
laws than those, of this blessed
book. ■ * v
It contains everything needful
to be, known or dope v . , _
V It giyes in8tmetion, to A Seri
ate, authority and direction to a
magistrate.
It cautions a witness, requires
an impartial verdict to a jury,
and furnishes the judge ' with ’his
sentence. M . . ' \
It seats the husband ns the lorcf
of his household, ami the wife as
mistress of thc table—tells hiip
how to rule, and her how to trian-
age.
It entails honor to parents and
enjoins obedience to children.
It proscribes and limits the
sway of the sovereign, the rule of
thc ruler and the authority of the -
master; commands tlie subjects
to honor mid the servant to olicy,
and the blessings and the protee-
tion of tlie Almighty to all thrit
walk by this rule.
It gives directions fot- weddings
and burials. i •>
It promises food aud raiment,
and limits the use of Iwth. !■ .
It points out a faithful and
eternal guardian to the departing
husband and fathertcljs hill#
with whom to leave his fatherless 1
children, and whom Ilis widow is
to trust—and promises a father to
the former, and a husband to thc
latter. 1
It teaches a man to set his
house in order,' and how to make
his will; it, appoints a dowry foy
his wife, and entails the rights of
thc first born, and shows how the
young branches shall be left.
It defends the right of all, ^ind
reveals vengeance to every ifefaul-
tcr, ovoiToachcr and trespasser.
It is the first book, thc best
book. 1 ” ’ '' ''

inquiring and disconsolate.
It exhibits life and immortality
from time everlasting and shown-
thc way to glory.

to come. !
It settles all matters in debate ;

the angelic myriads, the human
tribes and the devilish legions.
It will instruct thc accomplish

critic.
It teaches the best rhetorician,
and exercises every power to the
most skillful arrithmetician, puz

ercises the wisest critic.
It is the host covenant that ever
was agreed on ; that best. (f”cd
that ever was sealed; the. best
that will ever lie signed.
To understand it is to Ik> wise
indeed ; to lie ignorant of it is to
be destitute of true wisdom.
It is the king’s best copy, the
magistrate’s best rule, the house
keeper’s best guide, the servant’s
