The scene,-the, circumstances, the faces there, are all new—new. alike jn their strangeness and ip their, oldness, The preacher has not the same spirit, the sermon the samu savor. The lost, the hurled, and the estranged of her young sisterhood, dismally endorse tho uncertainties of life and the certainty of, death, which was but the echoed cant of her earlier confessions; and the stupidest'Worldling that habitually abuses and fhlsely accuses the economy of life in his own defence, now seems to her the wisest man.' The generous trftst of her warm heart has been broken by disappointment. She has faithfully performed every duty, patiently borne every adversity, ardently striven for the fruits of well-doing, but her way has darkened, day'by day, until faith in Providence has died out, and, in .utter bankruptcy of spirit, she finds her best relief in abandonment of tho Issue to the Divine compassion, which her own motherly heart teaches her cannot bo withheld from suf fering helplessness. Tills, surely, Is not the reign of grace—the triumph of ftitb over the powers of death and hell—the casting out of all fear, and the assurance of hope! This is moral palsy; but it Is submission and humility and utter nakedness of soul, and aro not these eSafe refuge for her wretchedness 7 It seems to mo sho might so understand her teaching without the sin of wlUhl misconstruction. But the mystical spring of life Is broken, and there 4s no present salvation in such patience as can not repair it. Her heart has died within her, her beauty lias withered as the springs of life have dried which watered it; and Kosy has long, since addedher mito of woman dust to the - mother earth that feeds the generations of tho race with its own life. •S Tho .services of. the Sabbath morning were not so lengthy as to allow, of reflections so .criticarand vagrant as weliave indulged in; but our present interview requires for its pur poioto be a “ protracted meeting ” with its members. Rbsy represents but a small por tion .of tho young sisterhood,, The girl that sits beside ber is of another make and quality, and has a very different drift and destiny. Bell Archer is a girl'of bone and muscle, force and feeling, made up for aetioh, and shows her qualities too clearly to be mistaken: coarse dark hair grows low upon her broad, frill fore head; a clear dark skin, that gives a fiery rod 'ness to the cheeks; an eye that looks a polished ball of light; broad shoulders, stout arms, large hands and feet, deep chest, frill form, and Strength and tone of muscle, that altogether give her the expression of a new coach pitch ed high upon eilptio springs. With half an eye you may perceive that Bell suffers from the restraints of sex, although she strains them os much as they will bear. Her brain is too large, anil her passions too strong, for tho nar rowest limits of female liberty, and her car riage and action have in them thp air of disci pline bearing' hard upon the bit, and showing the spirit which it curbs. That girl has seen but little of the life thst tempts her fancy; she has read no novels, but she has dreamed a thousand. She is not hand some nor susceptible i of soft emotions, and lipr reveries ran not'in that vein. She has a keen intellect, a relish for the sublime, a long ing for power; but the conditions are all want ing. Sho was bred an orphan; her childhood was refractory, and her, way wariness made her unpopular,' till tho sympathies of religious ira ternity gave her a conspicuous position In the church. “Good society” is inaccessible to her, except that which the levelling spirit of pioty supplies, and Bell’s,ambition is fairly roused in that direction. She is naturally capa ble of anything but tho gentler graces of wo manhood ; and os tho religion of this region is remarkably demonstrative, sho shines with effect;, aud without offence, in the society around her.. Bell is eloquent and magnetic in emotion, and sho has .free headway under the rales of the society. In social prayer and in exhortation, indirectly practised, when she speaks upon her own cose, she is eminently effective, and so far she has a fulcrum for her powers. I mean not to impeach tho earnestness of her pretensions. There :wat nothing in her conduct inconsistent with the claims she made to .confidence. and respect ; but she may be mistaken a little herself; and misapprehended, also, by others in the elements of hor emotions. The affections and aspirations which have a much lower, drift may mingle largely with the tide of devotional-feelings, and lift it quite above Its own pitch and depth. Hay, they may even get some -culture and indulgence under cover of the sentiment which they con fuse. ' The life of that region was meagre to the romantic and spirited among its women. There was no novel reading, no system of feshioua blo intercourse, no strifes for social position to kindle competition, and Indulge it, no ready outlet for the spirit of dlspjay; nothing of missionary, or reformatory, or benevolent en terprise, to give play to strong hearts and hands. Domestic, life in Its common, course was simple drudgery, without relief for taste or opportunity for, talent; and church mem bership,, therefore, opened the only field for the activities of enthusiasm, and the indul gence and enjoyment of the ideal. Is it re markable, then; that Hiss Bell, who was desti tute of beauty, fortune, and other regular oc casions'for activity and enjoyment, should pour the currents of her robust Hfo into that channel,and shine as,a professor? If she had had adranken father, sick mother, ,and helpless brothers and sisters, hor rare 'qualities might have put on the sober livery of duty, and made her, by the standard of the place, a noble woman. If sho had been burdened with any sort of suffering or sorrow, her natural heroism wouid'havo answered tho demand; but she stood alone, and solf-service, instead of self-sacrifico, was tho only possible method of achievement. Hor heart had never .yotboen broken—how could sho bo an exem plary woman? And how was it possible for such a life as hers to be hold quiet in the inani- tiss of a commun-placo existence ? Bell, per haps, had no business to be born inst then and there; her sex was, perhaps, a blonder; cer tainly her life wee a mistake. Tho world had no occasion /or her, and site coolsl make no use of it. - Her religion, therefore, had neces sarily. a. largo share of disappointment and des peration in it, and tlio higher state of being which she conld shape to her own wants may have had a very clear and earnest adjnstment to her true' character. Her faith had more fervent feeling and fancy than devotion in it. Of. this she might be conscious without deli berate* hypocrisy in her profession; but tbcrei was some obvious untruthfulness in it, and this feeling gradually weakened its spring; .and 801 l gradually declined from her extaticß—sank into old maidenism—grew troublesome and dan gerous, then unhealthy and querulous, and finally an attack of fever finished her career; and this bis/pry is her epitaph, and, I think, the only memorial of her life. How audaciously we are driving the plough share through the characters, and turning up ■ the subsoil of the human nature we are explor ing! It is a bold thing, approaching to irrever ence, in any mood, or for any purpose, to dis sect thq socred human frame when deutii has leveled it to the rank of dust, though the feel- 1 tag that forbids is but awe inspired by a noble mint, A mde inti’asion'iuto the more sacrod mysteries ol life is really a bolder, meddling with a . still more fearful thing. But we are the lawful heirs of all things; wo live upon cac)i other—tiumapUy is the common spoil of men, and a pressing need and worthy übo sanc tion the seeming desecration.

[From the Rochester Union of geptemborS.] One of oar hitherto esteemed and influential oiiixefes was-this day arrested upon a charge of a dreadful—a diabolioal crime; and from what we gatbfcr froni officiel and authentic sources, wo bo* Hevo the testimony is vory strong, if not conclusive, as to tho guilt of the accused. The person to whom we allude 2s John B. Robert son, cashier of-the Eagle Bank. He was arrested by Chief police Oviatt, ou a warrant ißtuod by Polioo Jastico Bardirell, on the application of Dis trict Attorney Htuon. The warrant oh&rgos Mr. Robertson, with' attempting to'produce tbo death of his wife by administering certain medicines, drugs, or compounds, procured by him for that pur po*o. Some few days since Mr. Robertson applied to Dri Joseph Biegler, Ms family physician, to ad minister to Mrs. Robinson some medlolse which ■would tend to hasten her death by Increasing the .liability to certain diseases with which she was afflicted. - We understand that the disoaaea to which she was deemed liable and strongly predis posed, are apoplexy and disease of the boart. Hence, medicines which would increase tho circu lation, it is supposed, would produoe one or the oilier of those diseases. Dr. ihoglor wA# surprised that such a proposi tion had been mode to him, and at onee consulted certain oitUens whom he regarded as friendly to him, and they went with him to the District At* wrupy. Under the direction of that officer, steps ITo i o j.?r e J?» to c 9nfirm the statement of Dpotoi 1 8., and the pUtriot Attorney states that they were fully confirmed in every particular. Dr. B. gavo Mr, Robertson certain compounds, from time to time, whiob he, Robertson, supposed well designed to produce tho effect, and it is believed that these compounds were administerod. Tie arrest was m'ado while Mi, 11. was at his place behind tho counter or the Eaglo Bank And musthsvo overwhelmed him, whether guilty or in, nooent.
