When raising through a. narrow gorge be tween two hills, where there was scarcely room for more than one person to pa, he met a man with' jug.; The jng had no handle, but was held by im oIJ, greusj leather string;, lied around the neck.

This is a plain, . uuvarisbe l , tale, and "shows how much may be doue by strong personal efforts. " Cast thy . brad upon jhe "waters, for tbon shaft find it after many Idays." V "C.

The landlord, . who was an old acquaintance, told him that a ball was going on in the hall above. Come, Sam, go tip ; there'll be fun and -food music. .

Being young and good looking; he found as many partners as he wanted, and bad a selection from the prettiest girls . in th ' 'The other rustic beaux and the homely belles, didn't seem to like it N much. The jealous lover went so far as to say ; - I'll cot the comb of that conceited cock mighty quick, if he don't mind his eye !" Meanwhile Sam felt, that he was the " observed of all observers," and his pride was not a lit Ue elated.' . Presently there came the toot I loot 1 of -an old fashioned stige horrr in the dist ance. The coach lumbered up to the inn . the driver threw out the- mail, and went into the bnr room, it being his stopping place at the inn Lr the night.

"It was the domestic training.1 be said it was the mother who made a.Publieola, a Camlilus . and Coriolanue. - Women, protected by the inviolability of the nup tial bond, were invested with a dignity that gave authoiity to histiuclion, and made the domestic hearth the nuisery of heroes." 4 Public vjrttte he said, i ."'tell with private morality. Under Imperial Horn' divorcf S ;wcru sought for and obtained upon the most frivolous pretext, and all domestic consequence was destibycd. The inevitable confidence was the loss of all public morality, Men who had been false to ll.eir private obligations, would not be true to their public duties; Csesas divorced his wife, aud betrayed his country. "The sanctity of the nuptiat bond is, in my opinion, one of the principal, il not the chiet cause of the superior refine ment, freedom and prosperity enjoyed at the present time by Christian nations.' A HIGH-HANDED OUTRAGE. Boston, Sept 22 An outrage of an unusual aud alarming character oc curred on Sunday night last between 9 and 10 o'clock, on. the County road iti Brighton near the borders of Newlou. The Rev. Mr. Danlorth, a student at the Newtou Theological Institute, New tort, Centre, had beeu engaged .during the day in preaching at a church in Brookliu. The' night being fine, with a bright moon, he concluded to walk home, and had reached the borders ol New'ton, at a place where there are no houses, when a stout man suddenly ac costed him, apparently iu a . friendly manner. Immediately afterwards, how ever, the man stepped in front of Mr. j Danlorth, and with a threat to shoot him if he did not give up his money, presen- ted a pistol at his head. Finding there was no rne ms of escape from so form idable and desperate an opponent. Mr. Danforth at once parted will his money, amounting to every cent that he was possessed of. ,The robber then no ticed bis watch, a gold one, but. not ol great vlne, which he also demanded, and it was given np to him. He then required of Mr. Dauforth a promise that he would not sneak ol the matter for half hour, and then allowed him to de part. He arrived at his home in a state of great excitement consequent upon the suddenness and brutality of the attack. The authorities of Brighton have been notified of the outrage, and will proba bly offer a reward for the robber. The robber was apparently an American.- ' Traveller. A REVEREND. Rev. Mr. TibbeLs of Belfast, Me. mays that 'God will turn President Pierce from the error of his ways, but if he cannot do that, that he will take him out of the world."" Mr. Tibbets, at last accounts, was waxing warm upon the political questions of the day; and if the steam continued To nse as rapidly as it had commenced, fears were enter tained that he would explode. SERVED RIGHT." , The master of the American emigrant ship Isaac Webb, of New York, which was driven ashore in a. gale of wind oti ! the Welsh coast, and - afterwards towed into Liverpool, was fined 250 for hav j ing put to sea short handed, and sue- j reeded in passing the Custom House authorities by shippings full crew, some of whom were afterwards discharged. . SHOCKING ACCIDENT. The Luzerne Union stateslhat a boy named Hoffman was killed at Wilkes bar re last week by the accidental dis charge of a gun. The boy was ordered to take a gnu into the cabin of a boat on which he was employed. The gun, it appears, was covked, and the boy in going into the cabin, put the mtrzzle to his mouth, when, the trigger striking the steps, the whole load was shot into his mouth and head. , "I- ': , FROST. . - The Charlottesville Jeffersminn says that there was a heavy frost in' that place on Tuesday night, week, and presumes it was general in all the vicinity.
