And with lit#angels stand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand; There right before my Saviour, So glorious and so Gright, I'd wake the sweetest music, And praise him day and night. I never should be weary, Nor ever shed a tear, Nor ever know a sorrow, Nor ever feel a fear: But, blessed, pure, and holy, I'd dwell in Jesus' sight. And with ten thousand thousands, Praise him both day and nigbt. I know I'm weak and sinful, But Jesus will forgive. For many little children Have gone to heaven to live. Dear Saviour, when I languish, And lay me down to die. Oh. send" a shining angel To bear me to the sky. Oh, there I'll bo an angel. And with the angels -tand, A crown upon my forehead, A harp within my hand. And there before my Saviour, So glorious and so bright, I'll join the heavenly music. And praise him day and night.

Oh, we shall happy be, When from sin and sorrow free, Lord, we shall live with thee. Blest, blest for aye. Bright in that happy land, Beams every eye, Kept bv a Father's hand. Love cannot die. Oh, then, to glory run, Be tt crown and Kingdom won, And bright above the sun We reign for aye. BEALTIFUL HIYEE.

The Columbian, published at Blooms burg, Columbia county, relates the fol lowing singular case : For some time past the citizens of Williamsport have been in a state of intense excitement, arising from what seemed to be a well authenticated case of supernatural visitation. We have been at some pains to investigate the subject, not only because of its singu lar character, but because we have known the young lady who is princi pal in the affair, from her childhood. M iss Bebocca Owens, about whom all this excitement is raised, is the daughter of Mordecai and Louisa Owens, formerly of Berwick, in this county, where she was born and raised. We ri member her as a gay, laughing girl, who apparently never saw a trouble nor know a care. A few years ago her father died, and she went to live with an aunt who resides in Wil liamsport, where she became a mem ber of the Pine street Methodist Epis copal church. Ilor ago is about fifteen years. Not long since she observed that wherever 6he went singular noises followed her, or, if she remained stand ing, sounds like rapping with the knuckles were heard, and sometimes a scraping or scratching on the wall. At other times it would seem as if a heavy substance was being dragged over the floor. So frequent did those alarming sounds become that the girl, and finally the family, became alarmed, and betook themselves to prayer, lo increase their terror the spirit, it such it be, began to call her in an audible voice, using such expressions as' Becky, come with us, we want you: 'Becky, thev aro waiting tor you in hell Not only was her name used, but that of other persons. lEAWnSHPffiwsja mmEPiMisj ©S'S'syrfM'j) iPiaasso Oi) Saturday evening the pastor was called for, and at first he thought there must bo some collusion between the girl and outside parties, but investiga tion proved that she was not only in nocent, but was really suffering on account of these strange visitations. The minister, after satisfying himself on this point, called in another well known clergyman, but the 'spirits' wero not to be overcome by prayer, and mocked the supplicants. On Sunday morning the family took the girl with them to church, where the same noises wero heard and her name was again called, whereupon she got up and left. These sounds and voices were heard by all in her vicini ty. They followed her along the street, rapping and talking from the fences, from the ground, from board-walks in the street, and from places inaccessible to human beings. During her absence from the house the same phenomena were observed. At class meeting on the same Sunday the same voices and noises were heard. One of the hymns commenced about as follows: " If you want to go to heaven, You must be followers of the lord." No sooner had this been sung than the voice returned : "You must be lovers of the Devil. Or you can't go to hell when you die." A pious old lady and gentleman took her home with them to stay one night, and Miss Owens slept with the lady, while the gentleman kept watch at the foot of the bed. About midnight the ominous sounds were again heard, Miss Owens being sound asleep, but in a few moments a heavy crash at the head of the bed awakened her. This was succeeded by sounds of sweet music, which apparently came from the walls, and to which all three listened in amazement. At one time, when the calls for ( Becky' were unusually strong, the aunt said, ' You shall not have Becky;' the voices returned 'We will have Becky!' The aunt asked 'What do you want with her?' The reply came ' We want her to go with us to hell.' It is needless for us to recapitulate all the incidents of this singular mat ter. Hundreds of people visited Wil liamsport to prove the truth of the statements or rumors that were flying abroad. Many efforts were also made to detect imposture, but as yet the mystery remains. Somo assert that a gang of devil worshippers reside in that city, while others say they are only a band of spiritualists. The effect on the girl was nearly to dethrone her reason, and at one time she was taken with a fit during which many supposed her to be dead, and straightened out her limbs and bound up her jaws. However, she came to, and last week accompanied her mother, who had been sent for. to Wiikesbarre. The mother believes her to be bewitch ed. She has been offered enormous sums to expose her daughter to the view of the curious populace, but she has refused. We deeply sympathize with our young friend, and sincerely trust this mystery will be cleared up, and if she has been mado the victim of heartless scoundrels that they may be properly punished. A Snake in a Woman's Stomach. The wife of Mr. Parker, who recent ly purchased an interest in the Ana mosa stone quarry, has been made cog nizant of the terrible truth that she has within her stomach a living snake or lizard. For the past five years she has suffered almost everything possi ble for a human being, and was sup posed to be gradually dying with con sumption. Some two weeks since a German physician om Lisbon, Linn county, being in town, was requested to make an examination into her case and see if any remedy could be devised to relieve her intense sufferings. Tho physician visited her and bo came at once satisfied that there was a living animal within her stomach.— On last Thursday tho starvation pro cess was begun and continued for five days, little or no nourishment being taken. During this time the animal repeatedly movedupward and into the throat, producing terrible and almost fatal strangulation, and making it ne cessary to administer salt to drive it downward. At such times the lower part of the throat would be pressed outward in a most perceptible manner. On Monday last the attempt was made to dislodge the loathsome crea ture by placing a pan of heated milk near tho patient's mouth and permit ting her to inhale the steam.. A poul tice of onions and garlic .was applied to the stomach but, through misunder standing, the onions were cooked and their strength thereby mostly destroy ed. Tho experiment, however, was tried, but tho animal moved up only a short distance, a green slime being emitted from the mouth. I The patient is greatly prostrated by Vol. LVII.
