done for, as the whole profits (less an interest not to
exceed 6 per cent. per annum on the capital) will be re
turned to the members of the institution, without their
becoming kesponsible for any of the engagements or
abilities °film Company, further than the premiums ac
tually pald.
The great' success which thifi system has met with
wherever it has been introduced, induce's the Directors
to request the attention of the public to it, confident

TT HAS suited the convenience of - certain parties, to

patent, antitinned, with a view toobtain the preference,
by pretending that lead pipe is an unwholesome con
veyance for good 'water. This stale imposition has
been urged, with extraordinary efforts of perversion
and dishonesty, in New York, without effect, and is
now about to be attempted elsewhere.
Nature soon provides-an insoluble anti Indestructible
coating to lead pipes, (when in sec for conveying water
that is fit to drink.) farjtetfer than ally artificial pro

,This is to Certify that some two or ditch weeks

must say, with but t little hopes, bust watclerful to say,
after a few „doses, a great change Was perceptible,

this awful state of debility, was from taking a 'vary
heavy "cold," which seemedte Bxitselfupon the lungs,
which gradually grew worse,withprotime night sweat,
a hacking .iough, oppression in the breast; spitting blood
with great general debility. My . constitution seemed
broken down, and nervous system very Winch impaired

wan treatedby phySicians of the highest standing there,
but received no benefit whatever from therm, but grad

all hopes of my ever recovering, and I felt like one
who is about to pass through the valley of the shadow
of death. At this "awful juncture," I heard of your

.. I was spending an hour, not long since, in turn
ing the pages of a pleasant Miscellany, in the
course of which thy eye fell upon the following
rare, but beautiful and touching incident, • in the
history of one who was that day to become a bride.
A party; of lively and interesting cousins and
friends hail early assembled at the bridal mansion
for the purpose ef decorating the drawing room,
where the marriage ceremony was to be performed.
At length this' happy duty being, accompliAed,
they. retired, happy in contributing to the joy of
an occadon, which, while it' Would take from them
one'whom they loVed, would unite that ono Mille
object of her highest regard: The room was beau-,
tifully decorated with rich-and variegated bouquets,
and on a centre table lay the: gaily adorned brides
loaf, ari object of great importance. •
I said all had retired from the lovely spot; but
there was ono of the couShis, who, a short time
after, stole gently hack to look once. more .at• the
varied beauty of the scene, and to indulge by her
self the - hopes and anticipations of an affectionate
heart, for the . future happiness of het friend. She
gently opened tho door, and was about entering,.
when,she noticed the sofa was wheeled round to
the'precise spot where, that evening, the happy pair
were to rise and exchange their soleran vows ;'and
there the lovely bride was kneeling, so absorbed in
her own thoughts that the' ntrwiiorkot her 'friend
was'unnoticed. , That friend stood for a moment,
gazing in holy admiration at the scene; she long
ed gentlyto app nach and kneel by her side, but
the occasion :' w il4..isciered to admit of social
union, and she titia.
And what so solemn and, ahsurbing was occu
pying the thoughts of this happy being 1 Was it
the anticipations of worldly felicity That hadln cosh t
her there 1 Looking routurnpon tic beauty and
gaiety of the room; where in *it • few hours also
would giya her hand to him whom she preferred
to all uThers on earth, had she in the wildnessand
excess of her own emotion' fallen:into a reverie

a high and holy duty, ere she plighted hi:,
the object of her affections:
.There, in tir s ,
where she woisbl soon stand, and sorrendeP ° '
earthly all to her husband, she would first coast
crate herself to the Lord. The prior consecration
was due to him. On that altar she wished to 'of
fer an - earlier and holier incense: on that spot, to
make a record of , the,prior deed, which she had
given of herself, to her superior Lord. -
I know not of an earthly scene more lovely, or
of an immortal being in similar circumstances, in
an attitude more becoming. -I am sure, that if
her intended husbind had himself the love of God
reigning in his heart, and could ho have seen her
there, whatever he might have thought of her be
fore, his love would have - said—not perhaps with
perfect truth, for others, it. is to be hoped, have
done so before her--but be might be forgiven, if,
in his ardor and admiration, he had exclaimed,
"Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou
ereellest them all." : •
What a beautiful example for the imitation of
those . who aro about to be led to the hymeneal al
tar! Most beautiful, most becoming! I knout not
the subsequent history of that "lovely, bride," but
I am certain she never 'repented that act of self
dedication to God: She may not. indeed, have
escaped sorrow ainl affliction ; but if they were her
lot,•1 know thitt God would remember the kindneSs
of her youth. lie would net. forsake her. She
might, bury her husband, children, friends; she
aright suffer siekbesa,and poverty ; but in no hour
would her Heavenly. Father forsake her ; he would
guide her by his counsel, and afterwards receiVa
her to glory. Yo,uthfu 4 l ; females ! would you lay

Fan/1117UL RESULT OF A. PItACTICAL SOF.E.—
A shocking occurrence lately took 'place in the vi
cinity of Perth. - The• well known courage and
naturally dauntless teruperainent of a young noble
man of that country; 'had stimulated his compan
ions to various w,gs himself aware of
their designs against his hardihood,' and readily
joined in the sport, so far ac to give them free per
mission to test his intrepidity' by either. natural or
supernatural means. Every scheme, however,
proved abortive, and the attempt was apparently,
and, as the yoUng hero beliezd, really relinquish:
ed as hopeless. But after the lapse of some weeks
it unfortunately became again a subject of discus
sion, and one of, the thoughtless youths, his inge
nuity stimulated 'bye considerable wager, resolved
once more.to subject his friend's strength of. Mind
to a' now trial. Having.bilbed his valet to admit
him into the bedchamber of the wholly unsuapect
itig youth, his lira care \yes to withdraw the bullet
from a brace of pistols 4uspended at the head of
the bed, under which he then crept,.to await the
arrival of his Companion. who, returning 'home at
his usual hour, went to bed and fell asleep. The
concealed plotter stole cautiously forth, wrapped'
himself up.in a ti..difte coverlet, and standing at his
MIL height at the feat of the couch, began to jerk
the sheet in which the sleeper lay: he awoke; and
saw the tall white figure, and calling out, "What
humbug are you about howl" turned himself
round again to sleep. r The shee.f jerking was,
however, renewed; and the youth, htrthented' out
of his good temper, exclaimed, ,t-Ilegone foolish
fellow, 0r...1 will shoot youP' Still the white figure,
n'eitherspoke nor moved say, but continued puk
ling at , ', the bedclothe's as itefore. Either :flannel
or angry, the young nottlenran got up, seized one
of his pistols, and fired right at the 'niotionless
figure, and the bullet was rolled .baelt•harioless on
the coverlet ! • Amazed, he discharged the other
pistol ; the gaunt silent fire tossed the reeoial . .
-bullet towards him! A horrible convictionef an
unearthly visitor being before him probably Fcize:l
his , imagination, and the fine promising youth fell
back upon'his couch a corpse ! A terebrali pars!-.
ysis had depriied him instantly of life.—. English

direction where it was easy for a ninn to wateh his
movemeats.- He carried his burden to a multi
under an!"ov . el hanging rock. Here he scratched
away a Mass of dry leaves and scooped a hole, hid

so successful in his-manceuVreS. The geeso by
some accident took the alarm and flew away with
land cackling. The fox finding himself defeated,
walked of iii a direction opposite the place where
his victim was buried. The man uncovered ,ilio .
hole, put the goose in his basket, replaced the leaves
carefully, and Assisi patiently at a distance to watch
fiirther proceedings.. The sty thief was soon seed
