Advertiser, describes a touching
scene that occurred over the dead
body of Hon. P S. Brooks i
About ten minutes after hB
death the venerable old Senator,
whose locks are now white with
the frosts of age, came into the
room, and upon seeing him cold
in the embrace of death, threw
himself iipdn his bbsdm and wept
as if his heart would, biirst from
its bonds. Judge Buffer had
lavished the attention "and affec
tion of many ye&ris iipdn Mr
Brooks and he seemed to be the
important object bf his solicitude
and existence, arid while the
death sweat still stood upon the
brow of the immortal sleeper,the
old man ailed td the fleeing spi
rit in tone's of sdrrdw,that moved
the pitying hearts df those who
stood round to tears "My boy,
my boy, my boy !" and such a
scene of mourning and sorrow, as
was witnessed there cantidt be
comprehended, much less re
peated here;

Taking
Toll. It is Summer,
now, but it was Winter, clear and
cold and! the show was finely
packed when Dr. Meadows was
one of a sleighing party j whieh
he describesj as far as he arid the
young widow Lambkin was con
cerned, in the words following :
The lively widow. Lambkin sat
in the same sleigh, and under the
same Buffalo robe with me.
Oh, oh, dont ! she exclaimed,,
as we came to the first Bridge at
the same time catching ine by
the arm, and turning her veiled
face toward me, while her bright
little eyes twinkled in the moon
light. Don't what ? I asked, I am not
doing anything.
Well, but I thought you were
going to take toll, replied Mrs.
Lambkin.
Toll, I rejoined, what's that ?
Well, I declare ! cried the wi
dow, her merry laugh ringing
out abdVej the music df the bells,
you pretend you do not know
what toll is 7 , .
: Indeed, I don't then, I said,
laughing, j pray explain, if you
please. !
Yoii never heard then, said the
widow, most provokingly, you
never heard that when we are on
a sleigh ride gentlemen 'always
that is, s'ohietim'es1 when they
cross the bridge, clainl a kiss and
call it toll. But I never pay it.
I said I had never heard of it
Befdre1 ; but when we came to the
next bridge I claimed the1 toll;
and the wiadw's struggles td hdld
the veil dver her face were not
enough to tear it. At last the
we came j to a long bridge with
several arches : the widdw said
it was no use to resist a riian that
would have it all his owii way,
so she paid the idll without a
niiirmet. . .
But yoii Wdht , tdke toll for' eve
ry archi will you ddcto'r.? ; the wi
ddw said sJ archly, that I could
ndt fail to exact all my dees, and
that was the beginning
But never mind the rest. The
Lambkin had the Meadows all td
herself in the Spring.
Fond of Sdoar: Anldng ihe
