within had reached the roof, and soon af
ter the whole line of them flashed into
conflagration. Meantime the lurid ele
ment poured out from the windows, ran
upward licking the combustible front, and
streamed in a waving, dazzling pyramid,
high over the top of the mansion, far in
to the blue firmament. Millions of sparks,
accompanied by volumes of rolling smoke,
sailed down the sky before the breeze,
completely obscuring the heavens at in
tervals, though accasionally this thick
canopy partially blowing aside, the clam
moon was seen peacefully shining down
through the rent, in strange contrast to
the otherwise terrific scene. The roar of
the conflagration had now become intense
ly loud: and, to add to the horror, there
began lo be heard the awful sound of tim
bers falling within the house.
Mrs. Stewart had watched the fire in
silence, her hands clasped, and lips part
ed, ever since Juba had disappeared with
in the house. Each moment appeared
an age lo her. At last the suspense, thus
lengthening out interminably, as it seem
ed, became intolerable.
"Oh ! it is vain.' she cried, making a
new effort to rush into the flames, "he
cannot find my boy. Let me go myself.
For the love ol God-"
But at that instant, through the smoke
that almost hid the only window that was
I not already on fire, appeared the faithful
Jurm, holding -aloft the infant. The flames
were all around, and to - moment more
would overtake him. He made a rapid
gesture tor some one to approach.
Four of the male, comprehending 'his,
wish, snatched a blanket, and rushed
promptly forward. The heat was intole
rnhle. but thei disregarded it, and stand
ing beneath the window.-with the blan"
ke( outstretched, ihey shouted to Juha to
throw the child toward them. . He had,
FowelrerVnYicipated''tnern. The infant
fell while they were speaking, was caught
safely in the blanket, and Was hurried
he bad fought the ' good fight," that the
goal Was won." God gave him strength
to forget the agony of his crisped and man
gled body, and to remember only that be
was going to bliss everlasting.
Thus, over the renewed sobbing of the
spectators, over the wild shriek of his mis
tress as she rushed toward him. over the
roar and cracking ol the conflagration,
there rose, like a trumpet, ihe incessant
cry, "Hallelujah! Halleluiah I Hallelu
jah I" -
One would not have thought that it was
poor, maimed, bleeding, dytngsufferer
that spoke, but the happiest and proudest
of men.
They reached him, stooped over him,
would have raised him. But at that mo
ment, he looked up at bis mistress, a trl
umphant smile breaking over his face,
and then fell lifeless hack, a "Hallelujah"
still trembling on his tongue.
And so he died. His grave has a mar-
ble tablet, with the words " Faithful unto
death." What nobler motto-could there
be.
A fact

"Kiss me, Mamma, do kiss me, k can't.
go to sleep." J
The child was so sensitive, like that lit
tle shrinking plant, that curls at a breath,
and shuts its heart from the light !
The only beauties she possessed, wer
an'xceedingly transparent skin, and the
most mournful large black eyes.
I had been trailed by a very stern.
strict, conscientious mother, but I was a
hardy plant rebounding after every shock ;
misfortune could not daunt though disci
pline tamed me. I fancied, alas; that I
must go through the same routine .wmH
this delicate creature : so one day when
she had displeased me exceedingly, by re
peating an offence, I was determined to
punish her severely. I was very serious
all day. and upon sending her to her little
couch, I said : i - ------
- Now, my daugh ter, to punish you. and
show you how very, uery naughty you
have been, I shall not kiss you to night."
.She stood looking at me. astonihment
personified, with her great moornlul eyes
wide open ; I suppose she had forgotten
he.r misicouduct till then and. I left her
with big tears dropping down her cheeks,
nnd her little red lips quivering.
Presently pwas sent tor ; "Ob ! mamma
you wilt kis me. I can I go to sleep if you
don't." she sotibcd. every lone of her voice
trembling, and she held out her little
hands.

SALE OF STATE BONDS.
We learn lhal five hundred thousand dollars
of the bonds of the State of North Carolina, ad
vertised by ihe Public Treasuier, have been
sold for a premium of iiyer" five per ceh'tr The
bids were opened in New Yoik Cily on Tbuis
day Jaal, Mr, Courts being present. The whole
a mouni reahsad. ia Jventyjive inoana one
hundred dollars.
These bonds are couponed, are lo run thirty
years, and are specially eiempted from laxa-
-lion.
We learn (haf a good portion of these bonds
were taken by English capitalists.
This is, under the circumstances, a most
gratifying sale. The State bad just entered

upon her bonds, the last sale of which was ef:
fecled. we believe, by Gov. Cobb, in New
York, about iwelve months since, at the above
figure. Norlb Carolina has thus, at one step,
placed her credit upon a level with that of the
