•■‘Farewell dear wife,you and 1 must part,
And children ‘on, who lie so near my heart;
For God hath called me, and I r ustaway—
Prepare to meet mo in the realms of day*
Farewell dear class; to you 1 bid adieu—
Sweet counsel often 1 have took with you;
But soon I shall remove to worlds above,
To rest forever with the God 1 love.
Farewell dear Elders of the Church below,
/rid you, dear members of the church’also:
Oft times have I assembled with you here,
And met together in the house of prayer.
Farewell dear friends with whom I oft havo
joined, I behind,
To teach thy children: you leave
And pray that God your labors will approve,
And nmko you meet to dwell with him above.
Farewell dear neighbors all. now I must go,
For death hath aimed at me his fatal blow;
I could not stay him when the blow he give,
By Dying here I now begin to live.
Farewell all flesh*, again T say farewell;
I’ve finished here, I'm going with Christ to
dwell;
As far as voice would reach , I'd say prepare
TometJ; your Judge with plaesur • at his bar.'
Thus spake this saint, and then resigned his
bri nth,
And sunk into the very arms of* death;
But God, who knew this saint was then to
die,
Sent angels down to waft his soul on high.
Alas! alas ! and is the spirit fled.
And is my friend now numbered with the
dead ?
Shall I no more in social converse share
The sweet endearments of his friendly care?
No more his pleasing countenance survey,
Which charmed the soul, and smiled the
hours away.
Ah ! cruel death ! why was that dart of thine
Shot at a brother and a friend of mine?
A brother in the bond of Christian love,
The tie which forms the family above;
A friend of genial soul whose kindied flame
Fired uiy affection into love again.
But ah! he’s gone and T remain below,
A litt’e longer in this vale of woo.
But shall I mourn as those whose hopes are
vain;
As if I ne’er should sec my friend again?
Ah, no! I soon shall reach that olissful shore
Where we shall meet to seperate no more;
But contemplate the glories of that place
Enlightened by the smi es of Jesus’ lace.
Enraptured by bis charms in concert join
To praise the miracles of love divine.
Thrice happy spirit thou hast, ’scaped away,
And left our darkness for the light of day.
The tumults of this life afflict no more
For thou art landed on a peaceful shore
Thy painful mental conflict now is past,
And thou hast gained the victory at last.

FOSCUL,THE MISER,
In the year 17(12, an
instance of averaco occurred in
A miser of the name of Fescue
had amassed enormous wealth by
most sordid parsimony and the
discreditable extortion, was
by the Government i o advance a
of money as a loan. Tho miser,
whom a fair interest was not
ment sufficiently strong to enable
to part with bis treasured gold,
bis incapacity to meat this demand :
pleaded severe losse.3 and the
poverty. Fearing, however, that
of his neighbors, among whom lie
very unpopular, would report his
mense wealth to tho Government,
applied bis ingenuity to discover
effectual way of holding his gold,
they attempt to institute a search
ascertain the truth or falsehood of
plea. With great care and secrecy
dug a deep cave in his collar; to
receptacle for his treasure he
by a ladder, and to the trap door
attached a spring lock, so that on
ting it would fasten of itself.
By and by the miser disappeared;
quiries were made, the house
searched, woods wore explored, and
ponds were dragged, but no
could they find; the gossips began
conclude that the ra;s. r had fled
his gold to some part, where, by
incognito, ho would bo free from
demands of Government, Some
passed on; the house in which ho
lived was sold, and workmen were bus
ily employed in its repair. In
progress of their work they mot
the door of the. secret cave, with
key in tho lock outside. They
back the door, and descended with
light. The first object upon
the lamp was reflected was the
body of Foscuo, the miser, and
ed around him were heavy bags of
and ponderous chests of untold
a candlestick lay beside him on
floor.
This worshiper of mammon had
into his cave to pay his devoirs to
golden god, and became a sacrifice
bis devotion. What must have
the sensations of that, miserable
wtmt the horrors of his situation,
he heard the door close after him,
the spring-lock effectually imprison
within his secret mine! How
must havo been tho struggles of
avaricious soul, How teriible
have been the appeals of
within that soidid siuner. How
bag must have disgo -ged its treasu

hoart must have grown sick at
which he once dearly loved. Gold
bag?; gold iu chests; gold piled in
gold for his pillow; gold streived
tho ground for him to lio upon.
While his taper lasted, turn where
would his eyes, nothing met him
his gold. But when the last
died away, and tho miser was left
darkness, to dwell upon bis
death and upon his many sins, how
ful must have been the agonies of
science ! How surely, amid the
of that sepulchre of gold, must
poorwbom he had oppressed, and
unfortunate-whom ho had ruined by
averice, havo rose up to reproach
And when tho mind became fevered

Sly Reynard.
A Race for Life Won by a Little
Strategy.
“I was once,” said an old hunter,
“chasing a small fox with half a dozen
hounds. They had been pushing him
pretty closely for some three hours, and
I. ha /, was finally t ’. .. ..11.-. forced 1’^ J . to try , to , gain • l hie : _
den in a lodgo of rocks. Now, it hap¬
pens to bo a fact that a fox always
likes to put as much distanco as possi¬
ble between himself and his pursuers
when he takes to his domicile, and as a
consequence ho makes the highest pos¬
sible speed when finishing the run. In
this particular instance Reynard started
on a straight run for Ids home, when
nearly a mile distant, and was soon 200
or 300 yards ahead of the hounds aud
widening the gap. When less than a
quarter of a mile lrotn home ho was
intercepted by three fresh dogs, which
! earing chase, had started tojoin it from
a point on a lino with the fox s kennel¬
ing place. Of course they drove him
back on a line nearly parallel with the
course on which lie had been running,
and it looked as though he would have
to make a circuit of two or three miles
to reach home.
The fresh hounds having literally
taken up the chase aud carried it back
past my own at an angle, my dogs left
the trail, and anil by a short cut, jomed
the intruders, the whole was soon
in full cry within 100 yards of the fox,
which was now running directly away
from home, At this point (Lie fox left
for the woods and took to an upper field
that sloped abruptly lie down 300 yards to
a narrow valley, had barely disap¬
peared over the brow of the hiil when
nine dogs broke from the woods over
the lence, all of them except the leader
with heads erect, looking eagerly for
tlmir prey.
i was standing on the opposite hill
and had an unobstructed view, and
carefully noted ail the movements of
tbe fox and his pursuers. As soon as
JiP.jjna cleared the fence and before the
’ hounds were iu a position to see him ho
put "it a magnificent burst of speed for
one hundred yards down the hill until
he reached a large stump three feet iu
height aud pefeetly flat on top. Leap¬
ing upon it he lay down with his uose
pointing in the direction of his noisy
pursuers and flattened him*elf out so
o imple el) that he was practically in¬
visible to me, and 1 doubt whether a
man would havo noticed him passing
within two rods of the stump unless he
was looking for something on it.
'I fie hounds came down the hill with
a rush, some taking one side of the
stump some the other. There was no
abatement in their speed until they
icacned nearly the opposite side of the
field, when tho leader discovered that
the trail was “lost,” and giving tho
well-known signal the pack were thrown
' into confusion and tho soarch pick it
to
up began. As soon as the hounds had
gone a safe distance beyond him, Rey
naid leaped from bis perch and made a
bee line /or home. It was fifteen min
utes before tho hounds made out to find
the trail, ami be bad ample time to
reach the lodge before they were again
in pursuit of him.

fiood Conversation.
’Flie tone of good conversation is flow¬
ing or natural; it is neither heavy or
frivolous; it is learned without pedant¬
ry, lively without noise, polished with¬
out equivocation. It is neither made up
of lectures nor epigrams. Those who
really converse, reason without arguing,
joke without punning, skillfully unite
wit and reason, maxims and sallies, in¬
genious raillery aud severe morality.
They speak of everything, in order
that every one may have something to
say,- they do not investigate too closely
for fear of wearying; questions are jus
traduced as if by-tbe-by, aud are treat¬
ed with rapidity; precision leads to eK
eganee, each ono giving his opiuion,
and supporting it with few words. No
one attacks wautonly another's opinion,
no one supports his own obstinately.
They discuss in order to eulighten
themselves, and leave off discussing
when Uisputo would begin; every one
gains information, every one recreates
himself, and all go away contented: nay,
the sage bimseli may carry away from
what lie has heard matter worthy of
aile.it uiediia'ion— F. F. Rousseau
Evory revenue officers is for Mr. Speer.
Why ! Because be provoked the send¬
ing of armed forces through the country
to search for illicit disiilleries and the
arrest of good citizens upon the charges
of revenue violations, and then votes
for large appropriations to pay the ex
pauses. This accounts for tbe milk in

Humor in The Family.
Hood humor is rightly reckoned a
tin at valuable aid to happy home life.
An equally good and useful fa-ultv is a
sense of humor nr ihe capacity to have
a little fun along with the humdrum of
life. We all know how it brightens
things up generally u have a lively,
witty companion, who sees tin- ridieu
‘ 0tl6 P n ’ lllH of things, and who etu. turn
an any V annoyance fl n t\ hi/ MOO into l tl f A an -I n occasion lii Otl for f 1 1 p
laughter. It. doer a great deal bettor
to laugh over some domestic mishaps
than to cry or scold over them. Many
homes and lives are dull because they
are allowed to become to > deeply im¬
pressed with a sense of tho cares and
responsibilities of life to ree< gn z - it*
bnght and especially its mirthful side.
Into such a household, good, but d ill,
the advent of a witty, humorous friend
i« like sui-shiue to a cloudy day. While
it is oppressive to hear people constant¬
ly striving to say funny things, it is
comfortable, seeing what a brightener
a little fun is to make, an effort to h ivo
some. It is well to turn off an impa¬
tient question sometimes and to regard
it from a humorous point of view, in
stead of becoming irritated about it.
“What is the reason I can never find a
clean sbirtl” exclaimed a good but ra¬
ther impatient husband, aft r rummag¬
ing through the wrong drawer. His
wifo looked at him steadily lbr a mo¬
ment, halfiuclined to be provoked, then
with a comical look, replied; --I never
could guess conundrums; 1 must give
it up.” Then he laughed, and they
both laughed, and she went and got his
shirt, aud he felt ashamed of himself
and kissed her, and then she felt bap
PD aud so what might have been an
occasion for hard words and unkind
feelings became just the contrary, all
through the little veiu of humor that
cropped eut to the surface. Some chil¬
dren have a peculiar faculty for giving
a humorous turn to things when they
are reproved. It does just as well
.oftentimes. Laughter is better than
tears. Let us have a little more at
home.
