There’s enough in this world to distress and annov, Oh, then let us try to enlighten its gloom ! If the darkness of sorrow thou changest to joy, Thus much hast thou brightened humanity s doom. If a brother or sister be swallowed in grief, Teach them that our Father will hallow each trial, Point thou to the cross for enduring relief: Oh, give the kind word and the heart-cheer ing smile ! We all may do much to lighten the load Which mortals must bear in this p ithway of tears; We all may do much to smooth the rough road, To raise the bright hopes, and dispel the dark fears. Thou rnayest not have gold to bestow on thy friend, Whom to his hard lot thou would’st fain re concile : . But in love thou hast wealth without limit or end; * Then give the kind word, and the heart- cheering smile! For what is our heart but to feel for our kind? For what is our voice, but to utter ourlove.- Oh, thiuK, what a Heaven on earth we should find, Had we less of the “serpent,” and more of the “dove ” Our days are fast flying, we stay not here long, Then let us be faithful, and loving the while, ■ Bring the erring to virtue, “the weak bid be strong And give the kind word, and the heart-cheer ing smile! the robbers seized the horse by the bridle while the two others dragged the butcher from the saddle. The dog leaped immedi ately upon one of them and strangled him; but the other wounded the animal so se verely that he rushed into the thicket ut tering the most fearful howls. The butch er, who by this time had disengaged him self from the grasp of the second robber, drew his knife and killed him. But at the same moment he received a shot from the pistol of the third, who had just wounded the dog, and falling was dispatched by the thief, who found upon him a large sum in gold, a silver watch, and a few other arti cles of value. He plundered the corpse, leaped upon the horse and fled. The next morning two woodcutters, happening in that path, was surprised to flud three dead bodies and a large dog, who seemed to be guarding them. They examined them and endeavored to restore life, but in vain. One of them dressed the wounds of the dog, gave him some food, and sought some water for him, while the other hastened to the nearest village to in form the magistrate of their discovery. The officer accompanied by -several atten dants was soon on the spot, a surgeon ex amined the wounds of the thiee bodies, they drew up a verbal process and interred them. The dog dragged himself in the course of the uight, when all was quiet, to the corpse of his master, where he was found the next morning. He allowed his new friends to dress his wounds, and as if fore seeing that he might one day avenge the murdered, he ate and drank, but would not leave the spot. He looked on quietly while they dug the grave, aud allowed ihem to bury the bodies ; but as soon Before he had time to explain himself, the voung man, profiting by the tumult, es caped. For some moments they thought Meyer himself was mad and he had great difficulty in persuading those who had bound the dog that the faithful creature was not in the least dangerous, aud begged earnestly of them to release him that he might pursue the assassin. He spoke in so convincing a manner, that his hearers felt persuaded of the truth of his assertions, aud restored the dog his freedom who joyously bounded to his master, and leaped about him a few times, and then hastened away. He divided the crowd and was soon up on the enemies’ track. The police, which, on these occasions are very active and prompt, were immediately informed of this extraordinary event, and a number “of offi cers were in hot pursuit. The dog became in a few moments the object of public cu riosity and every one drew back to allow him room. Business was suspended, and the crowd collected in groups, conversing of nought but the dog aud the murder which liad been committed two years be fore. After an half hours expectation, a gener al rush indicated that the search was over. The man had stretched himself upou the ground, under the heavy folds of a double tent and believed himself bidden. But in spite of his fancied security, the avenger had tracked him, and leaping upon him he bit him, tore his garments, and would have killed him upon the spot, had not the as sistants rushed to his rescue. He was immediately arrested, and led with M. Meyer and the dog, then carefully bound, before the judge, who hardly knew what to think of so extraordinary an affair. Meyer related all that had happened two as the turf was placed, he stretched ; years before and insisted upon the impris- himselfupon it, howled mournfully, and j onment of the man, declaring that he was resisted all the efforts of the bystanders to induce him to move. He snapped at ail who came near him. He bore his caresses, but no sooner did the man attempt to take his paws to remove him from the grave, than he gnashed his teeth, and would have wounded him severely, if he had not quick ly fled. Every one admired the fidelity of the dog, and when the woodman offered to carry him food aud drink every day, that he might not perish, the magistrate pro posed taking up a collection to remunerate the man, who was poor, and the father of a large family. With difficulty he was in duced to accept the money, but he finally did, aud from that moment burdened him self with the care of his new pensioner. The details of this horrible event were published in the principal journals of the country. J. Meyer, a brother of the butch er, reading sometime afterwards the adver tisement of the magistrate, hastened in stantly to his presence, he had fears which he believed were too well founded, that his brother had fallen into the hands of rob bers; as he had left home with a large sum in gold for the purchase of beeves, and had not since been heard from. His suspicious were only too sadly confirmed when the magistrate related to him the singular con- .1 . - - i ~ J — n,h! /.L It n rl rtf. AIM 11A / I V'l OV 01* the murderer of his brother, for his dog could not be deceived. During almost all this time it was found almost impossible to hold the animal, who seemed determined to attack the prisoner. Upon interrogating the latter, the judge was not satisfied with his replies aud order ed him to be searched. There were found upon him a large sum in gold, some jewels and five watches, four of them gold and very valuable, while the fifth was an old silver one, of but little consequence. As soon as Meyer saw the last, he declared it to be the same that his brother wore the day he left home, and the description of the watch published month previously, cor roborated his assertions. The robber dared not expose it, for fear that it would lead to his detection, as he wa3 well aware it had been described very minutely in all the principal journals of Germany. In short, after most minute and convict- ive legal proceeding of eight months, the murderer was condemned to be broken a- live, and his corpse to remain chained up on the wheel as an example to others. On the night proceeding his execution, he con fessed amongst his other crimes, what till then, he denied that he was the murderer of Meyer’s brother. He gave them all the details above rslated, and declared that he gggp There is abundance of truth as well is poetry in the following pair of stanzas, by Charles iSwaine: One story is good till Another is Told.

"While travelling in 178V, through the beautiful city of Leipzig, I observed about a league from the gates of the town, a few rods from the high way, a wheel and the hones of a chain corpse exposed to the gaze of every passer. The following, is a history of that crimi nal, as,I learned it from the lips of the judge who conducted the trial, and con demned him to be broken alive. A German butcher being benighted in the midst of a forest, lost his way, and while endeavoring r tq gain thej-oad was attacked by three Highwaymen. He was on horse back accompanied by a large dog.

We find in the August i Chronicle & Sentinel, the outlines of a speech delivered by the Hon. A. H. Stephens, a few days ago, at Orawfordville, his home. The fol lowing extracts are sufficient to expliiu his position in regard to the Presidency. He said: “There never had been so general a dis satisfaction among all classes of people, both North and South, as was produced by the action of the two National Conventions. The complaint was heard in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Texas and other States. This discontentment arose, in part, from the manner in which those nominations were made, and the principles by which the two great parties (as they are called) are proposed to be kept up. These oigan- izations, still preserving their ancient names are entirely destitute of all unity of senti ment or principle upon either the domestic or foreign policy of the Government. The Democratic Convention, by which Gen. Pierce was nominated, was composed of Freesoilers, Abolitionists, Secessionists, Ta riff men and Anti Tariff men, Internal Im provement men aud Anti-Internal Improve ment men, the advocates of Intervention and Non-Intervention—politicians of every shade and complexion found a welcome to this mongrel association. Their object was power and office, and they cared nothing for principle. With a body thus composed it cannot be a matter of much surprise that all the ablest and best statesmen of the party should be sacrificed and set aside, while some unknowu, unexpected, but thought to be available individual, should be taken up as the instrument of the party. The result is known. A gentleman was nominated aud was now a prominent can didate for the first office in the world, who was unknowu to nine-tenths of the Ameri can people, aud whose public services did not entitle him to the position. Mr. Ste phens would say nothiug in disparagement of Gen. Pierce. As far as he knew, he was a man of fair ability, a lawyer of some emi nence in his own State, aud that was all that could be said of him. He had never given the country any evidence of the pos session of those high qualities, or that long experience in public affairs, which should Speech of Mr. T©©infos--His Posi tion in the Present Canvass. We have heretofore stated that Mr. Toombs was expected to address the peo ple of Wilkes county, where he resides, Tues day last. The Washington Gazette furnish es the following synopsis of his speech on the occasion: “Notwithstanding the inclemency - of the weather on Tuesday last, a large number of the citizens of Wilkes assembled in this place to hear the views of our distinguished Senator on the present state of political af fairs. Never have we witnessed such an at tentive audience as the one on this occasion; it seemed as if all were willing to catch every word which fell from the Hon. gen tleman’s lips. This was no party meeting, for we saw Democrats and Whigs, South- ance, which he did in a ern Rights men, and Union men, and no body's men, all congregated to hear what our renowned statesman and fellow-citizen might say. For nearly two hours this attentive au dience listened to the remarks of Mr. Toombs. He began by reviewing the position occu pied by hi nself for the past two years; that he had not changed a single iota, but was ready now, as he has always been, to give his support to the men who would plant them selves upon the broad principles of the Constitution and the country. Afcer reviewing the position of parties for the past two years, Mr. T. then spoke of the three candidates for the Presidency, now before the American people. He commen ced with Gen. Scott, showing most conclu sively that he had no claims whatever upon his fellow-citizens for that responsible station. He spoke of him as a great General; admit ed his achievments in arms against the Bri tish, the Indians and Mexicans; that he was the last one that would pluck a single laurel from his military fame. On this point Mr. Toombs was very eloquent, aud paid a just tribute to him as a military chieftain, and that was all could be said of him. Gen. Scott was the tree-soil candidate—he was for the annexation of Canada—but not for any more slave territory—this Mr. T. was bitterly opposed to, and recommended all who thought it a moral duty to free their slaves to vote for Scott. The Hon. Senator next reviewed the polit ical course of Gen. Pierce. He said noth- entitle a man to be placed in the high and jng disparaging towards that gentleman, responsible office of Chief Magistrate of this great Republic. He had nothing to ex pect from the election of Gen. Pierce, ex cept the bringing into power of a class of but on the contrary, spoke of him as a very consistent man in all his Congressional ca reer; that he had always acted with the South, and was the safest man (on the slav- men whose principles would be hostile to ery question) North of Mason aud Dixon’s the true interests of the people. He feared that the advocates of Kossuth, Intervention and Young America Progress would lead the couutry to war aud destruction, under the banner of that party. * * Sc ■* * St Mr. Stephens next gave his reasons why he could not support Gen. Scott, and pro ceeded : Under these circumstances, Mr. Stephens then said—ho could not, and would not, support the nominees of either of these Con ventions, and if no other candidate had been presented to the people of Georgia, he would not have gone to the polls.—But it was known that the names of Daniel Web ster and Charles J. Jenkins, had been pre sented to the independent voters of the line. We thought that Mr. T. lauded the Democratic candidate too highly; for we believe there are many men North of that line as sound a3 Gen. Pierce. He preferred Pierce to Scott, but would not vote for either. We were a little amused while the Hon. Senator was speaking in glowing terms of Mr. Pierce, to behold the countenance of a number of our Southern Rights friends brighten up, as if they had secured a pow erful ally in that gentleman. But when he stated that the contest between the two par ties seemed to be whether our next Presi dent should be a big General or a little General, a fainting General, or a sure enough General, they were non-plus, and we pre sume they burnt their mouths a little in State. To that ticket he should give a ; trying to eat their porridge too hot! as did cordial and willing support. Upon the a certainjGeneral over a “hasty dish of soup.” character and services of these men, he dwelt at considerable length. They were both tried and faithful Mr. Webster’s claims was next consider ed by Mr. Toombs. He gave his reasons for preferring that gentleman above the others vauts. Mr. Webster was identified with foa the Chief Magistracy. He admired him the passage of the Compromise. He was one of those gentlemen at the North, who stood up for the right against the prejudices of his own section. For this he had been sacrificed by the North, aud for this, as a southern man and an American, he, Mr. Stephens, wished to do him honor. He al luded to the state of things iu the country when Mr. Webster made bis great 7th of as a statesman, as a friend to the Constitu tion; and contended that it was Webster who stayed the flood of abolitionism—who killed the Wiimot proviso—who dared, in the face of the North, and in defiance of his constituency, while speaking of the rights of the South, boldly to exclaim, “Oh! God, I will be just.” Mr. Toombs paid a high, glowing and March speech. There was no general yield ing at the North upon the Wiimot provi-! 0 f the renowned statesman; said he so until that speech was made. from the Congressional Globe, Temperancte Among Indians. The well known Indian chief, the Rev. Peter Jones, of Canada, has recently return ed from a missionary tour among the In dians on Lake Huron and Superior. While with the <>arden River Indians, and being detained by a storm, he held a temperancj meeting, which he thus describes : In the evening we held a temperance meeting. Chief Waubojeig Washkee was called to the chair, and made a short speech after which the following brethren address ed the meeting. Warner, Pitezen, Steel, Gregory, B. Shingwink, and myself. The usual pledge wits then readily signed by 105 Indians. Chief Ogestaih was then re quested to proclaim the number who had given their names to the cause of temper- masterly manner, causing his powerful voice to resound through the woods, and along the shore of the lake to a great distance. Ho rose up and said : “Hear me, hear me! Ogestaih has been chosen to proclaim the result of this meet ing. The number of Indians who now say that they will never again drink the tire-wa ter, is 105. These 105 Indians row say that there shall be no more deaths by drowning in the water—no more burning to death—no more quarrelling or lighting —no more bruised eyes—no more drag- gingtbe wife by the hair of her Head—no no more murders—and you who are hus bands now say you will no more be jealous of your wives; you, wives, say you will no more be jealous of your husbands—and last of all, Ogestaih says, that he also will no more be jealous of his wife, That is all I have to say.” At the conclusion of each sentence, the usual Indian exclamation of “kaik” was shouted from many wives throughout the camp ground.

Letter from General Pierce.—The Rochester Daily Advertiser, of August 30th, publishes the following letter from Frank lin Pierce, in regard to the religious and property qualification tests of New Hamp shire:— Concord, (N. H.) July 15,1852. My Dear Sir:—It is impossible that a charge should embrace a more direct attack upon truth, than that with which the Whig papers have teemed with relation to my sen timents upon the religious test contained in our State Constitution, which was adopted in 1792, and never amended since. The charge is contradicted by every word and act of my life having reference to the ques tion, in any form directly or collaterally. I advocated "the call of the Convention for the amendment of the Constitution, which as sembled in November, 1850, and the most prominent object in my own mind was to strike out the unjust and odious provisions commonly called the religious and property qualification tests from our fundamental law.
