As the first l.jj pntteritiK drops that fall Willi a splali on otir lattice, pane Make us shiver anil start astliey warn nsall Of a sform or of coming rain; So it is with life when we're growing old And age steals on unaware We shiver and start if the truth were told, At the sight of our first gray hair. Ve mark not the light of our n.wnulay hours. Like the first strenk the dawn doth tiring; , We hail not. the birth of the summer flowers As we tin the first snow-drop of spring; On the bleak winter wind we look not with grief Tliongl; it howl through the branches lare; But we sish when we see the brown Autumn leaf And behold Nature's first gray hair. Gray hair may come when the lieatni.ig eye Has none of its brightness lost. When the bonyant hearts we will fain deny Youth's Ilnbicoti has been crossed; Rut the ivy-clad tree looks. voting ami green, Though a sapless trunk lie there. And naught ol'tlecay on our cheeks may be see n. When we witness our first gray hair. Oh a noble crown to a noble life Is a head of silvery gray, And 'tis well if tired with truggle ami strife It finds rest at the close of day; Hut gray-heaib-d sin is a crownless curse, And the parent of dark desptiir, And il gives us a pang, oh, tl.mbly worse, Thau the night of our first giay hair. Come early, come late, like a knock at the Is Ihat ti.'st a iff, silver threa I, And it j-iins with tin sileln-e the years that w a i I Willi the years forever fled; Il silently tells us we're junnieyinj; on It silently questions ns Where? Oil, a faithful mile stone, were truth but k nown. Is seen in our first gray hair. ji a i: i lx a i nun ;. A STRANGE CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY. It miglit le snijusctl i fiat personal iden tity was a mailer lit 1 13 liable to mistake. C'hncs of pctsotiiil resemblance, such as would deceive a number id' persons at once and fur a length of time, aie vtiy rare. imdheis and sisters are sometimes so alike that they must be confronted in order to be distinguished, but we feel pretty sure that we should soon find out an impostor if we cmild catechize and ci oss-eximine l.itn. Vet.il is soinel :mes I i flic it tt In lisjose r bits of evidence adduced In favor of actual impiistois. llatflly any one of the false Diiiipliius, claiming to be the sons of Louis XVI. but had his adheieMts, and there are still hiile fragments of unexplained testi mony ntilttHl ntg against, the belief tn.il Louis XVII died in the Temple. The story of the false Maiiiti Guerre is to be found in the tiist volume of the French Coiled ion of Hie Cause L'elrbres, and seems to prove that even the evidence as to p" sot.al identity which would ajjea: most convincing shotild be received w iiti cauliuu, and that the ieiMiaMon of individuals " any ;ii I icular cast , should not be allowed to otn weigh solid proof oi any other kind. One day, towaids the close of the six teenth senility, t lie little town of Artignes, in lite south of France, was thrown into a slate of gieal exctieiii'-nl by the iiinn.ied reappearance of one of i's l.iiniur inhabit ants, who bad quitted I he place eight years be. fore, and of whom iioiiimg bad been heaid since he hail been tempicd to steal some of his father's cot n, and tied in fear of the the Ft being discovered. The old man. howevev, lefi him his heir, and l'n-t re. the young man's t'.ncle, managed the prop eity in his nephew 's a bsence. On heating of his tetuiii, every ore hurried to tin house where the wile of this man resided, a young and beautiful woman, who had passed t he tune of her lemnrary widow hood in the Kindest retirement ; and there to the sat isf.ici ion of all, was Hie missing Martin Guerre. The long parted couple were visited ami congratulated. Everyone recognized Martin. lie was barely twenty when he left A'tignes, and there was just I he change which eight "ats might have made in him, butnomoie features, voice, manner, all were the same, and ll waserv pleassu: in I he old town, w hen old planks weie icciilcd, fnitnor jests laughed ovei, and the balf-forgoi.ieii escapades of his boy ish rla brought I" memory. Martin Guerie had always leeu a fa vol it e, and had apparently come b-.ick as g'Mid a Fellow as ever. I5ei trattde, his wife, wasfnllot hap piness at hei husband's ret it in, and there weie other i hit ions foui sisteis, two ol them martied, who, w ith the brother-in-law and an uncle, I'iene Guerre, it-ceived the new-coinei without a shadow of doubt. Three years passed. IJerliande had a little, daughter, the family haimotiy was unbroken, when a soldier fiom Itochelorl passed through Arignes. ami strange so lies began lobe A'hisiteied. This man had lieeu heaid to say that Martin Guerre, whom he knew ieife:lly. was in Flanders; that he had a wooden leg ; and that the fel low who had usurped his uam and his lights was h villain and an imposter. Hut the soldier and bin motives were un known ; his tale w as improbable ; for what hindered the teal Martin Guerre from com ing home) to claim his property and his wife? Yet the story produced an eflVct on Hert rande. She secretly summoned the man before a notary, and had his deposition ta ken down in writing. It was as if some doubt had entered her mind ; but she m idi: no change in her conduct, and continued to treat the man as her husband, whom she had, for so long a time considered such. Her position was a painful one. The next, event in the Guerre family was a tremendous quarrel Indween the uncle and nephew. Three years had passed, anil I I'jerre constantly pm oit giving up mr statement of accounts demanded. High ' woids followed ; and, in the end, the uncle i gratified his vengeance by getting Martin into I I.e juisnti of Toulouse, inconsequence j of another quarrel he had got into. .

The rich man of the fa mil v, Jean Wing applied to by Pierre to advance money for legal proeeed . ings against llie impster. replied that t Martin Guerie was his relation, and, if he r advanced money, it should be todefend him against bis enemies.

He was lodged in the jail at Kietix. and it was soon known that- these insolent proceedings were taken by the wife's authoi ily, who was at last biinging an action against her husband as an im pos ter. Yet she sent money and clothes to him in the prison, ' She senilis lo have been unable to make up her mind positively ; anil it seems clear that her sic nature, au thorising the capture, was extorted by those live men against a timid woman. Xow licgan one of the st ranges! of emweH celebre. The accusers charged the oi-rti-ant Martin Guerre with being really acet tain Arnold Tilh, a native of s,agias. His defence was simple and at raight forward, lie stated that alter the quart el with his father he led a roving life, and associated with (lifteient peisons, all of whom he named, lie had been in the King's service in Fiance seven years, then had run away to Spain and made his way home as soon as he knew that hecould do so safely. Friends, sister, wife, every one in Artignes had recognized him, am! received htm with o-kmi arms. '1 hat bis w ife was on the side of his accusers was clearly because she was under ci'inpulsioti. She had lived with him hap pily aud without, a shadow of suspicion for three years. 1'ietre'a motives were only too plain ; they were revenge and self-in-leiest, and he had leen heard by people in Artignes to vow vengeance against his nephew. Th accused demanded I hat his wife should be removed from Pierre's in !liienco anil placed under the protection of unbiassed persons. This was granted, and, in addition, a monitoire was issued com manding every one who knew nny.hing of thealluirto come forwaid under pain of excommunication. The result was a most t riumphant couHi mation of every statement of (he accused. Further, his answers were completely f at isfiictory tot-very question adlressed to hi. ti. He gave c n rectly every p.n t icnlar as te his parents, his birthplace, his marriage, the priest who officiated at the ceremony, and even deseiibed the dress and conduct of some of the gnesia. IJert lantle was separately examined on all these (mints and the answers of the two ta'ilied exactly. As many as one hundred ami fifty w itnesses gave theirevideiice. About sixty declaied that the resemblance between Martin Guerre and Arnold Tilh was so re markable that they refused lo say which of the two stood before them ; from thiity to fivty said decidedly that the accused was Mai tin, and about tifiy more, equally posi tive, that he was Arnold. On Hit question of family likenesses, Martin's son was pro nounced to bear no resemblance to the piisoner, xliile Guerre's four sisters weie found each as like her supposed brother "as I wo eggs." The decision of I he judge at the close of the ti ial was against the pris oner, and be was sen'enced lo death. The prisoner appealed to I he Parliament of Ton louse, and a new trial was gi anted. As ilert ramie de Runs was to hi; a decisive wit ness, if l he inquiries into her charicter proved atisfactory, these were veiyexaetlv made. All bore test uuony to her blameless life and viituous character. Would she have lived with the prisoner for tin ee years unless she had been firmly couvine d he was her husband? The supiwised husband and w ife were confronted. 11 is manner w as frank, assured, and feai less ; her's. confus ed, fluttering, and uncertain. He boldly charged her lotell t he truth; to say w he! her lie was, or was not, her husband. He .vonld have no judge but herself, ami was ready to sulfur Die punishment if she were prepared to afiiiiii on oath that he was not Martin Guerre. She replied that, "she would neither swen:- it. nor believe it." Tii is evtisi ve reply seemed lo st rengt hen I he cause of the pt isnrer, but the judge hesita. led to decide. Another inquiry began. Eighty of the foi iner w itnesses were select ed, of whom nine or ten confirmed, and seven or eiht denied, the assertion of the accused ; the rest remained neutral. The result s ;iu increase of ierplex'it.v. There was more I ban sufficient reason for believ ing that the ptisoiit-r was Martin Guerre, and quite as much for declaiing b in an impostor. The great point to be proved by his ac cusers was that the person in question was Arnold Tilh. Arnold was irreligious Iis houesl, ti ;isri upu Ions, a diuukatd and gambler. The likeness Ix-tween him and Martin Guerre was so remarkable, that nothing was easier I ban to mistake one for the other. His apparent know ledge of facts which could only be known to Mat tin Guerre merely p-oved Ihat he had laid his plans vet y well, and informed himself ex- j acl ly ofail those paiticnlars. No one ever thought ot charging Her'.iaude Willi com plicity in the plot,. Among the witnesses who spoke positive ly to the prisoner, Arnold Tilh. wasone who siiic that he had admilte.1 this to him in confidence ; two deposed that they recog nized him. Guerre was a IJiscayan, but Ihe accused did not know the Basque dialect. The shoem ikei employed by Martin Guerre swore ihat. his niitn'jer was laelve, while that of the prisoner was nine. Then the uncle 'f Tihl burst into tears on seeing him in chains ; a strong evidence, as his recog nition nwi.st lie the ruin of his nephew. Here was strong evidence; but, sitange to say, that on the opposite side was equally convincing, and the latter witnesses had known M m tin Guerre from childhood, while the others had, for the most part, only seen Tilh at di.Teient times and in casual interviews. Tlieie were one or two of the witnesses who, at first, were not sure whether the ikjisoii was their old friend or not, and whom he convinced of Ihe fact by reminding them -f circumstances which could be k no An only tot I. em and to Martin Guerre. He addressed them all by name, and vatied his manner to Martin's intimate friends according to the degrees of intima cy which had subsisted. Could the dewi est impostor pi iy a part so faultlessly ? and whocjuid have been his teacher? Either Hertraude and she was above suspicion or Martin himself. Ami how could Mattiti have imbued him with his tastes, bis ways of thinking, ami all the little faniiliit iiies which individualize a character? The slight, personal dissimilar!! ies which had been commented on weie explaititd by the d iflVrence of age. He had grown much storter ; he had corrected his old slouch ing gait. Martin bad a peculiar growth of the n. i il of one finger, a scar ui the fore head, a blood-mark on the left eye all of w hich weie found on the pi isouer. As he left Biscay when only two months old his ignorance of Ihe language was eas ily accounted for. No one hid ever hoard M ri'- "'.. t.i tt Arnold had lived "e bince his letnin such as could hardly have been thai of a i previously wort bless and dissipated char- I acter. ! Never was evidence more equally balan ced, nor public opinion more equally divi ded. The universal exja-ctal ion w as that a favorable view of the prisoner's case would be taken, when a new actor appear ed upon thest ige, Ihe true Martin Guete, the husband of Bertrande de Hoss, witness and accuser at Ihe same time. He was received suspiciously in psite :f his wooden leg, and taken into custody. Things look ed od.L Might not Pierre Guerre have started this new claimant. His examination was not satisfactory. His answers weie indeed correct, lint, the other claimant had replied npue positive ly ; and, w hen Arnold respec fully begged permission lo question the nvi'i himself, a war of wotds ensued, in which the wood en-legged man used langjage of much vi olence, while the otbei preset ved the com posure which is supposed to proceed from a good conscience. All this may cisily be accounted for if we place ourselves in the posit ion of the tespecl ive pa. t ies ; Fresh witnesses tiow called Arnold ' Tilh's brotheis, were summoned to appear ; in court, but nothing would prevail on them to do so. Then the new claimant was con fronted with the Guerie family. The elder sister was the fitst to enter the court. For a minute or two she gared on , hi:n fixedly, then she threw herself on his ' breast, weeping passionate'', calling him by his name anj imploring forgiveness. Her brother was no lessagitated, embiaced her affect innately, ami fieely forgave her error, The scene can ied Convict ion to all. The other sisters were equally satisfied that this was really their brother ; and all the other w-iinesses, even those who had been most, positive, agreed that, they had been deceived by the extraordinary to- ; semblaure, but that this was beyond a doubt Mart in Guerre at last. And now came poor Bertrando's turn. Every one felt fov the pale, beautiful wo man, who atom trembling at bet door, as her eye fell on the stranger, for whose ap pearance she was, of course, quite ttupte- cared. Her features became convulsed with emot ion, and, with a wild cry, she fell at his feet, praMtig, with hearl-rend-intr sobs, to be forgiven. Her beauty and distress touched all heartsbut his ; he had pitied and easily forgiven his sisters, but. ' to his w ife he remained inexorable. He could neither forgive her nor believe her, he said. If was impossible for a wife til mistake a sit anger for her husband ; she, and she alone, was the eausenf the misery and dishonor w hich had befallen his house. Arnold Tilh, whose identity was fully proved, made a confession before his deal h and explained the story of his deception. He and Martin Guerre had been compan ions in arms, anil he had learned trotn him much concerning his wife, his house, and ciiCiiinstances, by which lie rietet min ed to profit, and to accept the situation when he found people addressing him as Mailin Guetie on his leturu to his old neighboi hood ; and, hy clever manage, ment, soon contrived to.know quite enough of his fiicnd's past life for the purposes he desired. On ihe 12th September, 1500, Arnold Tilh was sentenced to death hy Ihe parlia ment of Toulouse, and on the lGlh he pa id Ihe penalty of his crime. He was hanged lie fore Mart in Guerre's door, having hog ged pardon of him and his wife, with every sign of true contrition and penitence. w What to Do V"ith Ir.

At the age of fifty he man ied a gill of twentyr and when the burden of sixty yeats bore him down bis wife was only half his age. Dodsworth was noted for his peculiarities, but the climax came when he found himself on his dying bed. He waft worth about $30,000, aud he hadn't a Ii1hkI relative living, S3 far as he knew. He w anted to leave his property to his wife, as the pair had lived very happily, but yet he could not leave it w iibout displacing some of his jtcnlitiht ies in the provisions of the will. Some old men display a mean spirit when making their wil.saiid dial't in a provision cutting the w ife oil with a shilling if she man ies agitin. This old man wasn't of that stamp. His young wife was good looking, viva cious, fond ol society and it was f.dly to mipjiose she would iiioiini for her "late de ptred" any great length of time. There fore Mr. l)odsworlh turned heel on the usual custom and said in his will : "In case my wife Celia does nt take unto herself another husband within thir teen months from date of my burial all be quests otherwise made in this will are to revert to the state of Michigan, to be used for building and furnishing a home for old women." Whether Celia was plased or displeased at this provision dp me.it saith not, but the old in in h, nl. not been undi'i the sod more than six mouths when the widow was said to be Ii Miking out for another man. If it was singular for the djiug Dodsworth to urge his wife to marry again it was still more singular ihat he should desire her ceremony to be perfoimed under the fol lowing en cumstanccK. viz : "And it is made incumbent on said Celia D.hl.-iwoitli that in taking a new husband the man iage ceremony shail be pet formed in the big barn on my farm, on the II " rnad. It shall take place at ten o'clock in the evening, on the main lloor, without lights of any description, with all d,srs shut, and a free invitation shtdl be extended to all. The clergyman shall statu! in the stables and the bride and groom on the main than, and the principal parlies at the ceremony shall be diessed in black through out." The widow announced her intent vm to faithfully obey in spirit and letter, the will was probated and the twelfth month had scaicely passed In-fore she issued an invita tion tor I lit) public t attend a wedding at the big barn. Just ho the groom was to be no ono could positively as sert, as the wideiw had been keeping company with a widower, a bachelor aud two young men, and as far as any outsider could judge she loved one as well as the other. Being good looking and tah.nted and having a forluti'i behind her, it was not, strange that she should have a num'icr of suitors. She seemed to enter into the spirit of the affair with great zest, as als. did the minister: aucl to further mystify the people in attendance the biide euieicd the barn alone at one door, the groom alone at another, and no one knew that the min ister had ai lived until his voice was hi aid in tha siables. Theie were at least 200 people present, and each one understood that even the striking i.f a match would bieak the will. Many jokes were passed and cnisideiiible confusion existed, but at length the minis ter announced that all was ready. 'Ihe ceremony was gone through with, and at its conclusion, the ailtir having been a "profound suec-ss,' a iiish was made for ths bride ; she was kissed by a hundred men, and wan then carried home, a distance of a mile aud a half, in a big aitr-chair. Now comes themysteiy. When the lady was set dow n at her own door the widower, the bachelor and the two young men each claimed to be her true and lawful husband. None of the crowd could say who was the lucky man, the minister was at sea and the bride heielf seemed to have doubts. The widower aas the man of her choice, but in itiuunri nautili ' ,,lfnMon ,,e con,d ,lave f,, hustled . , , , , .Tt , . , , . w i.i ui.st Iia Hul a In rm tliut an At t e .11 1 it was made to choke him and get him out of the barn. The bachelor vowed that she had promised to marry him, as also did both young men, and each one was sure that be held the w idow's plump hand and was legally married to her. The four men had a fight, but lh;it didn't mend matlets. The crowd ducked two of them in a c;ek, but that didn't decide the question. Just how it would have terminated, had not the widower been a man of nerve, no one can tell, as the other three had already appealed to the law, when the widower steptied in and took his place as husband a.id settled with the others for f'2, 000 each. One of the young men, now over foity years old, and having all the wife he wants (she weighs 2:J0 pounds), is living in De roit. aud during an interview he solemnly and earnestly assured a coi respondent that he was legally manied to tlte Widow DihIs worth that night in the big barn. Another of the parlies lives in Clinton county, and he has lime and again asseited that he is the woman's (rue and lawful husband, so belt) him God.

After lying for four mouths, he died in great agony. Weak as he was be seemed to be jiossessed of a fictitious strength and at the t ime of his exei t ions in the paroxysms of agony to which ho was subj' ced, two men could with diffi culty hold him on the led. After young Henderson's death the case had excited so much attention in medical ci, cles. t he roti scnt of the mother was obtained to an au topsy being made upon the body. Invita tions were sent to several physicians of (he city and the investigation commenced f w hat w as to lie a cause cob-hre in toed ietil history.

TI.e assembled doctors could hardly crcV.it the testimony if tl.eii own eyes, palpable al though it was before them. By some e culiai process the cherry-stone, after hav ing become lodged in young Henderson's stomach, had actually sprouted as thrift as if it had tcen planted in the grout. d. The strange pains of the young man were now accounted for, for proceeding from the cherry stone were shoois of tibi es which had ramifnd throne h ,e inu-siims of the victim, and, lit some instances, had coiled themselves tightly around thetn. In the vicinity of the healt weie a n:i:n ler of these shoots and one of them, iat gar than Ihe rest, in piessing upon this organ, had liren the immediate cau-p ,f death.

The shoots weie so closely winded and twisted around the intestine that, it was found impossible to remove, them, and so they have Iwen presetved t science.
