The miser, few ring lhat.he should soon ilie. buned all his gold in the earth, so that no one could posses.it after him; and there lies the proud ducat till this present time, and it has grown so black and dirty tbat no one - would pick it up if they saw it. J - , The farthing, however, travelled far through the earth, and came to high honor; '."and this is how it occurred. t A Istd in the mint recptfcd the farihiog in bis wages, arid the lad's little sister ad 'jairmg the bright little coin," be gave it to her.-. The child ran into the garJen to sbow Iter m Jther the farthfng, an old lame beg- - :ger cauie bmping op, and begged a piece - of breads I have none,' said the little girl. Give me then, a farthing, that I may .buy myself a bit of bread,' said the beggar. The child gave him the farthing. The beggar limped away to the baker's. j "Whilst he stood in the shop an old 'acquain tance, dressed :as "a pilgrim, with cloak, "laff, and bag, came up the street, and gave the children pretty pictures of saints and . holy men, and the children dropped pence jnto the box which the pillgrim held in his . .hand. The beggar asked, 'Where are you jgeingl The pilgrim replied, 'Many hun dred miles, to the city of Jerusalem, where : a he Lord Jesus -yas born, and lived, and 1 -died; I am going to pray at his holy grave, and to buy the release of my brother, who haa been taken prisoner by the Turks Out first, I am collecting money in my box.' 3o fake my mite, said the beggar, and he gave the pilgrim the farthing. . ' The beggar was walking away, hungry 18 he came, bit the baker, who looked on, gave the poor old man the bread he was about to have bought- l Now, thejjilgrioi travelled through m--ny lands, sailed, over sea in a little ship, and &t length reached the city of Jerusalem. "When the pilgrim arrived, he first prayed -at the Sepulchre, and then presented him rself before the Sultan, who held bis brother -captive.: He offered the .Turk a great sum s-of money if he would only set his brother dree. But the Turk required more. '1 4ave nothing more to offer thee,' spake the pilgrim,than this eommdn farthing, which -a hungry beggar gave me out of compas sion. Be thou also compassionate, and the farthing will reward thee.' ; f The Sultan put the farthing in his pock et, and soon forgot all about it. The Em peror of Germany came to Jerusalem, an J Staged war against the Sultan. The Sul 4an fought bravely and was never woun ded. Once an arrow was shot straight at his breast it struck him. but fell back a paiu without having wounded him.' The SultanVwas much surprised at lb s, and af ter the battle, his clothes were examined, sand in the breast pocket the farthing was loHrtd, against which the arrow had struck. The Turk field the farthing in great' hon or, and had it hung with a golden chain -4o the handle of hisscimetar. Later on in tho war the Sultan was taken prisoner by the Emperor nnd wns fdrced to yield up his js-orl to him And thus the farthing came wih his sword into the Emperor's posses sion. . ; ; " - ' I Whilst the Emperor sat at the table with a beaker of wine in bis hand, the Empress said she should like to see the Sultan's sword, and it was brought. As the. Em- mror exhibited it to the Empress, the far thing fell from the golden chm into the. beaker of wine. 1 he Emperor perceived this, and before he placed the beaker to his Jips, he took out the farthing. Biit the far thing was grown quite green. Then eve ry one saw the wine was poison. A wick ed attendant had poisoned the wine in or Jer to destroy the Emperor. The atten .daut .was, condemned to death; but the forth ing" was placed in the imperial crown. -"Thus the "farthing had delighted a child. IBad procured a beggar bread, had released, a prisoner, had saved the life of a Sultarr, -and of an Emporer. - Therefore it was set in the imperial crown and. is there? to-day if one could only see that trown I TORNADO.

''There' is, sa-s Carlyle, 'a perennial no bleness, and even sacred ness, in work.' Uut work, though, like fire, a servant of servants, is not at all to be chosen as a mas ter. . It must be entered upon, not narrow mindedly and with a selfish aim alone, but with the memory that we are bound by a thousand links to all our fellows, and that it is due both trrthem and to" ourselves that we contribute somewhat to lessen the pains and increase the pleasures of the world a- round us. By no means .will this properly be accomplished, though large our chari ties and little our sins of waste, if we shut up the heart forever in" the ugly casement of unsympathizing labor. Family, friends, acquaintances, our home, our country all demand a share of our exertions. 1 hen, and only then, when the spirit of generosi ty widens, and the angel of affection sanc tifies, is true, the -language of our author r 'Blessed Is he who has found his work; let him ask no other blessedness. Labor is life.' ; Tft'O WEALTHY CITIES. ? According to the late communication of the treasury of the city of Hoboken, N. J., that city is posssed of the sum of eight dol lars The sum in the treasury of Jersey City is exucliy eight dollars less than that in the treasury of Hobeken ' j SHOCKING MURDEll AND ROBBERY. ; Mrs Hannah Shingle, an old widow la dy, who resided alone in Chester county, Pa , was murdered on Wednesday night last, by some wretch, who entered a win dow, seized nn axe and beat out her brains, after which he rifled the house of every thing of value and made his escape. , THE IMAGE OF HIS FATHER. 'My son, take that jug and fetch me some beer V i 'Give me some money, then, father.' 'My son, to get" the beer with money, 'anybody can do 'hat ; but to get beer with out money, that's a trick.' So the boy took thejug, and out he goes ; shortly he returns and places the jug be fore hs father. t 'Drink,' said the 6on. . . ? 'How can I drink,' said the father, 'when there is no beer in the jug V j To drink out of a jug.' said the boy, 'when there is beer in it, any body can do that ; but to drink beer out of a jug when there is no beer, that's a trick.'
