F. R. FILDES, Editor. VOL. VII. LIVE AND LEI LIVE. a farm ballad. Well! Farmer Smith has lost his wheat, his sheds and mammo h barn; His little boy w ith one small match burnt up the vbole concern; I tell yon. wife, he’ll feel it sore: a man on mon ey bent Can’t stand up under such a load when not in sured a cent. I don't know as I pity him; I call it a great sin To board the harvest of three years in spacious baru and bin; I can’t feel pity for a man who doubly locks his door, And stops his e«»s to all the cries that come up tor the poor. I like to see economy, I like to see men save, </4ad lay up something for their kin when they are in the grave! But you and I know very well, from w bat we both bare seen, There is a line when ’tis crossed, a man gets to be mean. When wheat was sixteen shillings—a ptice Ibnt paid us well— Smith said, “I'll wait for twenty, I vow, before I ”.] Mil;” Then, when it reached the figure, he said to ine I one noon, 4 ‘l guess I’ll hold it longer; ’twill be three dol- J lars soon.” lie held it. and he ran hi debt for things to wear and eat; When merchants dunned him he would Fay. “waittill 1 sell my wheat!” *Soon that old tune got fuddled, and men began to sue, And he began to barrow to pay account* long due. When Smith goes off to buy a thing, be spins around the town, And tries with all his might and main the price to banter down: When be has anything to sell ’tis priceless in his eyes. And he must have the highest mark—the lowest when be buys. •‘Live and let lire,” aro golden words; this other motto too “Do unto others as yon would wish that they would do to you;” If Smith had done us they command, be would not have, to day. The ashes of three harvests to load and cart away. Wife! if you take a berry and dry it in the sun, ’Twill shrivel up till it takes two to make the lire of one; So many a man in grasping lor gain, so ahrlveles up his soul. That it will near expand again, w hile life’s years o’er him roll. God blpss the farmers of our land! They are not all like him. Who walks around the smouldering pile now in the twilight dim, Living on God’s broad acres, their souls expand and "row. Their ears are ever open to tales of want and woe. God bless the men, where’er they be, in country or in town. Who do not think its life’s great work to crowd tbeir neighbors down; This world would be the bet ter, this life would pleasnte give. If erery man who t ils to live would let his brother lire. A STRANGE EXPERIENCE. BY CHARLES DALY DOUGLAS. In the month of July, 1849 I found myimlf in the city *>f Paris. I had I e**n trading about ih«* woild fort n yours, and having made several profitable v ,y a *e», and w- iked hard withal, I resolved to take a rest while I could S IS' Id out my vessel nt Havre, and repairing to Paris, I set about seeing the fights and amusing myself During my throe month's stay in tt e French capital, I met with many adventures, nr st «>f them the result of my imperfect acquaintance w ith the language, and u any of them ending In a mutual explanation and a g*-od humored langh; hut tbs one I am about to relate, was of au entirely different kind. I had no acquatotanc* s in Paris to in vite me to elegant parties or receptions, i»nd therefore I bad no need for elegan dress. During my travels about the world I bad picked up and preserv'd a great variety of costumes, and the fancy now seized tne to wear them just as ti e whim should dictate. And so I did. On Monday I would g!roll out attired as a Russian,-on Tuesday as a Turk, on Wednesday as a Swiss, and so on. One day I was summoned to appear before the prefect of ponce I went, wondering what could be wanted • f rm* iu that quarter. When I was u* he ted into the presence of that functionary, he closed the door and attentively regarded me. ‘What nation?’ he asked, in English. ‘American.* 'I supposed so. Well, Monsieur American, pray be so good as to inform me what object you have in going about the streets as though you were at a fan cy dress party, in the costumes of all known nation*?’ •It is merc y a whim.” was my reply. *lt suits me to do so; that is ail I cun jjay about it.' ‘lndeed?’ lie looked at me bard for a moment, aud then continued: I urn well satisfied that you have no improper «»b ject in alt this masquerading; bad it been otherwise, my agents would have discovered it. You have been under their espionage constantly. 1 nave sent for you to tell you that, though you are perfectly at liberty to continue this style of pioceeding if you choose to do so, yet in the end you may find it to your ad vantage to drop it Ttiis i* a strange city, and the role y< u » ave adopt' and may involve you in complications you little dream of. I metely give you a friendly warning. Good morning.* This was a caution that I ought to bare regarded ; but 1 wa* younger then than I am now, and pretty full of the idea of my own importance and acute | iM-ss. If the prefect could not explain | what danger there could h*» in my diess | ii'g as I clw se, it was pretty clear to me Gat there could bo no danger; so 1 smiled at the caution and went my way as befor^ Thole was one of my costumes that was rather a favorite with me—a showy Spanish dress, richly braided, with a large mantle am) sombrero to ina'eb, I I believe I had appeared in public with this much oftoner than with any of the th* r Costumes, A few nights after my interview with the prefect, I was return ing to niy lodgings in tins diess. There had been a great exhibition of fireworks <n the Place Yendome, which had eon tinned until eleven, and es 1 walked on slowly enjoying my cigar, it was half an h< ur later I < fore I turned into the nar- | row street that contained my place of abode. The street was unlighted, und j quite dark and deserted. Presently thro** men came rapidly along behind me, talking and Inughii g in a way tint at first led me to think they had been taking too n.neh wine. One of them quickened his pace, ov« r t ok me, and addressed me in Spanish I knew a little of the language, and 1 understood that ho was asking for a light. I held nut mv cigar, and at the instant rnv arms were seized from behind and pinio* « and with a slip knot, my throgt was compressed by a pair of bony bands, and a thick padded bond was wrapp'd cl so ly about mv face and bead. The thing was done so suddenly and so seerellv that I wusontnely taken bv surprise. I tri- and to rrv out, but found 1 enuld not utter a sound. I was lifted off my feet; I heard a shrill whistle, a carriage wa« drive*- up, I was thrust into it, sorre es m\ captors following, of ets mutf ted to the box, and the vehicle was driven away at a rattling pace. I shall waste neither worth* nor spare in describing mv emotions. I wish rm re h to up. ak of facts and the reader may supply t* ev* st for himself. I struggled at fir*-t; hut an* thcr slip-no* b»* was ro«ded tightly about my legs, and a tew cautionary words of Spanish from one of the men conveyed athiaal which canard me to keep silent. The vehicle was driven at a rapid pace, which presently brought it to the end of the paved stieet, and 1 knew were approaching one of the subjtir* s. Tic j ip m y was e nt run and f » m »e than Ili hour after his mv ii m anions « xehaugii a word i• W and then nan t.i and« it no.

Put 1 had little time or doi-ire; to push my inquiries as to mv w tie tea bmi’s. Three figures clad in masks and long black mantles surmund cd m**, each holding a rap’er with the point almost touching my portion. I gave mys» If up fbr lost, and was whispering a prayer, when the most as tonishing phase of my adventure occur red. The three men simultaneously ut tered a Spanish oath, and dropping the points of their weapons, thrust their fa ces close to mine and peered in'o it. A torrent of Spanish oaths succeeded the insp' ct ion; tho hood was thrown over n.y head again, and mv arms and legs tied. 1 was thin carried back to the vehicle, and actually returned to Paris as swiftly, as sect el ly. and as laptdly as I bad been taken out of it. My bonds and mnfiler were or ee more removed, and I was put down at the very spot where \ had been kidnapped, not at alt the worse in b- dy for my adventure, but much hew Mered in mind. The carriage and its conductors were instant y gone. After a very sleepless night I repaired to the Piefect of Police and told him rnv story. He was much interested in it, and asked me many questions. •What under Heaven does it all mean?’ I at length asked. ‘O s it’s very easily understood, Mon sieur Masquerader It would appear that yon, in your Spanish dress, and with your brown face and well trimmed beard and moustache, must bear a re markable resemblance to s- me real cas tillian in Paris.

Not 1 lie whole of the guests, however, were destined to reach the r homes.

S one domestics in the service of the chief of An stein becoming acquainted with the hour of ti e intended festival, had the audacity, for the purpose of amusing thernnclves and indulging th h mastei s propensities, to lie concealed in tin adpicent tt-icket Under cover of the night, th- y suc ceeded in s* ting upon two of the danc ers. who, happ ning to stray from tla ir compatuoiii-, had approached nearest to them and they were instantly conveyed amidst the shouts of surrounding revel ry and rejoicing, unheard, into the neigh boring Hiiitz M iimtaiiitt until a lit time slum and occur to covey tin m to their ulti mate destination in R lutdn ig.

Then, with oaths, and laughter, a still more extend' and incursion than the form r was determim'd upon, the whole party present declaring tiint they would, this I'me, each and every one, s**izo on Ida individual prey after the close of the dance. About twilight, on the appointed day, the mead w was sen Covered with groups of dancer**; yet, with ail this, tin virgins this day trod the scene—they wer<* safe in their parental mansions. It was ls e stout citizens, and next to them their eldest hoys, who were array ed in women's attire, with newly sharp ened weapons Concealed un<jer their clothes, all intent upon avenging the h nor of their duigbiers, tneir sist-rs, or their betrothed, und forever in future to secure it. They began the dance with sounds ol revelry and mirth, y< l somewhat sub dued to tones of womanhood, wide tbeir In ails throbbed f r vengeance, u* til the approach of midnight, when tneir t«usiy scouts brought word of the yet near and ijeaier advance <«f the bird of Arnstein, approaching soft y towaid the spot.

But what was the feeling he experi* cueed when, at, with a thundering voice and a laugh of j »y, lie cl aimed the bride for himself, the bright steel flashed in Lis eyes, and snv'te his out-stretched arm, before fie could draw it back, quite through and through! SmuMing wth pain, and uttering curses » »f revenge, he started back t<> re gain ids steed; but ten Hhong arms were about him; and be felt himself pinioned, hand and foot, and neck, aa if chains of iron girt him round. £>ome "if the knights and pages whe hastened with threats to his assistance, were after a short struggle, overpower ed and s*-cared; tm-st of them, however, escaped, with cries of terror and so prist*, wounded with sabiea arid witu stones. The chief culprit, how-ver, was carried with slum's "f triumph into the city. There the Ii and *»f Arnst**iti was throwi. into a sofitary du -geon, and there he confessed on beholding tin preparation** for his execution, the deeds he bad ;er pctiated and further intended to accom plish.
