Thowso!t MISCELLANY. ; A DTRAUTIFUL STORY. . .The most bfcautiful and affecting in citleut T5 k3w. associated with a shif--wreck, is the following The Gmsvenor, an East Indiaman, homewarl bound, goes ashore' on the coast of Caffraria. It is resolved that "the officers, passengers " and crew, in number one hundred -and .thirty-five ou!s, shall rndeavor : to ;penetrate on foot, across trackless deserts, Invested by wildbeast, and cruel savages, to the "Dutch setilement at the Cape of Good Hope, with this forlorn object before them thej finally separate imo two parties, never more to' meet on earth. There is a solitary child among the passengers, a little boy of seven years old, who has no relation , there ; and . " when the first party is moving away he -cries after some member of it who has "been very kind to him. The crying of a chad might be supposed to be a little thing to men in such great extremity-'; but it touches them and he is immedia tely taken into that detachment ; from which time forth this child is sublimely made a sacred charge. He is pushed -on a little raft across broad rivers by the swiming sailors ; they carry him by turns through the deep sand and long grass, he patn-ntly walking at all other tirms, they share yith him such putrid fish as they find to eat ; they He down and wait for him when the rough carp enter, who becomes his especial friend, lags behind. Beset by lions and tigers, 4 y savages, by thirst and hunger, by "death, in a crowd of ghastly shapes, they never oh, Father of alf mankind thy name , be blessed for it 1 -forget this -child. The captain stops exhausted, and his faithful ' coxswain goes back, and is seen to sit down by his side, and neither ! of the two shall be any more beheld until the great last day ; but as the rest go on for heir lives, they take the child with them. - The carpenter dies of poisonous berries eaten hi starva tion, and the stewarf, succeeding to the command of their party, succeeds to the sacred guardianship of the child. ' .. . God knows all he does for the poor baby. How he cheerfully carrries him- in his arms when he himself is weak and ill ; how he feeds him when be himself is grisped with want ; how he folds his raggedjacket around him,: lays his little warm face with a woman's tenderness, upon his sunburnt breast sooths him in his sufferings, sing's to him as he limps along unmindful of , his " own - parched and bleeding :fceL Divided for a few days from the rest, they dig a grave 'in the rand and bury their good friend the cooper these two companions alone in wilderness; and the time comes - when they are both ill, and beg their wreched partners in despair, reduced and few in number now to wait by them one day.' They wait by them two days. , On the rnorniug of the third they jnove very softly about in making their preparation for the resumption of their journey, for the child is sleeping by the fire, and it is agreed with one consent that he shall not be disturbed untilNhe last moment. The moment comes ; the fire dying; and the child is dead. '-' " - " His faithful friend, the stweard, lingers - but a little while behind him. His grief is great-He stasaers on for a few, days, lies dowd in the . wilderness and dies. J But he shall be re-umtedin his imrnori i tal spirit who can,doubt it ? with the child, where he and the poor carpenter hall be jaised up with the words "In somuch as ye , have done it unto the least of these ye have dotie it unto mc" ' AN UNFORTUNATE 'WIDOW " Sol. fijmitb, m hiS recently ; published Theatncat, Journey-workl' by the way, an exceedingly interesting:-and amusing volume," as exhibiiing'tliear ly struggles of the drama in the west relates the following odd occurrence during' his peregrination in Georgia t Between Celeba Swamp aud Line Oreek, in th1 "alia ij- we ww'a oorisi.s erable crowd gathered neap a drinking hciusmost ofthem s -a tod ytid jimokit ff.

The first 'thing 1 noticed en aiiglni.i, wa the singular - position o! one of tlif? horses of the party. He was kneeling dpin and standing on his. binder feet, his head wedged in between the ends of twd logs' of jhe groceiy, anu he .was stone dead, haviving evidently nm ;di rectlyigainst the building at full speed,. Icausfng the house partially to fall. - A oout nve paces irom the norse lay the rider, quite senseless, with a gash in his throat which might have let ,out a thou sand lives. As I said, most of the crowd seated and smoking - ' " ' What is all this? I inquired. 'What is the matter here V . ' Matter?1 after a while answerd one in a drawling, voice,' giving a good spit, and refilling his mouth with a new cud 'Matter enough ; there's been a quarter race. s. ' . '"But how came this man and horse killed?' ! asked. . v Well,', answered the chewing and spitting gentleman, 'the man "was con siderably in liquor, I reckon, and he run his boss chuck against the house, and that's the whole on it.' ?' ' Flas a doctor been sent for?' inquir ed one" of our party., , i:1 1 reckon there : ain't much use of doctor ; here,' replied another of . the crowd. , i'Burnt . brandy couldn't save either of .'em, mail or hoss. ' " Has this man a wife and children?' inquired I. 7:1 ; , " 'No children, that I knows on.' anT swerd a femalerwho was sitting on the ground a short distance from the dead man smoking composedly. - " llle has a wife then T I remarked. Vhat will be ; her feeling .when slie learns the fatal termination of this ' most unfortunate race V Yes,' sighed the female 'it was an unfortunate race. Poor man, he lost the whiskey.' , .. u t Do you happen to know his wif.-? ; has she been informed of the mrtiarie ly death of her husbad,' were my next inquiries. -. " ' Do I know her ? Has she beeu in formed of his death ?'. said the woman. 'Well, I reckon you ain't acquainted about these paits. I am the unfortun ate widder.' u ' You, madam ? You tlie wife of this man who has oeetr.so untimely cut off!' I exclaimed in astonishment. . . , u 'Yes, and. what abmt it!' said she 'Untimely cut off!
