THE PROMISE.
1 hear the music rising from the days that are to be,
The " glory halleluiahs , ' of a people that are free ;
And ti embling on the breezes of the Present sweeps
the strain
O'er the Southland and the Northland, from the
mountain to the main.
Through the portals of the Future, as the mists are
slowly drawn,
Opens wide the length , ning vista, brightened in the
golden (lawn ;
And the glowing panorama wraps my soul in future
time,
Visioned with the fairest promise, full of majesty
sublfhte.
Roll the rivers on forever, with their clouds of ship
ping filled,
Freighted with the dropping rlehei that the blazinb
sun distilled ;
Rise the mountains, fringed with glories that would
-shante en earlier ago,
tif the day-tide of Earth's being as it rolls across
the page.
Cities broad with tall spires shining o'er the plains
that round them roll ;
Rlains of swelling elopes aml valleys, plains or ocean
to the pole ;
While the heaven bends blue above them, and the
.sunshine tills the sky,
As the Present Wes to dimness in the light that I

Nark I I hoer the mighty music sweeping o'er our
brothers' graves,
rival the Teller of the Southland ; 'Us the anthem
of the slaves,
find the clanking of the fetters has been changed to
bursts of song,
In the rice swamp and the forest, as the time has
swept along.
Still the ringing minor music of the sabres In the
fray,
cells [row out the smoke of battle, fmin the red
:fields far away,
And the mighty bass of cannon booming at Opprcs

Mingles In the stormy chorus, with a call to "Work

Once more with hearts 'determined, we will march
on through the sea . . •
That rolls its waves of verdure o'er the forms of

And strengthens with new courage all who strike
for Truth and Right."
UHF. MILLER'S DAUGHTER.
Many years no, the, community of a
hamlet in the south of Prance, was startled
by a crime, rare, indeed, in their quiet, ag
ricultural district. A wealthy farmer was
found dead, at early morning, within one
hundred yards of his own house. He had
been laled by blows administered with a
Leavy stake, which lay near the body,
covered with blood, and all his pockets had
been rifled of their contents, including a
considerable sum of money, which he was
known to have received the previous eve
ning for some sheep sold by him in the
neighboring market town. •
'When the awe and excitement created by
this event had subsided a little,' every exer
tion was made by the authorities to ferret
out the perpetrator of the crime. A reward
was offered for the discovery of the mur
derer, proclamation of which bounty was
Made for several successive Sundays at the
church door. At last some disclosures were
made implicating a young man named La
roche—a stripling of eighteen years.
The person who brought the charge
against young Laroche was a man of the
name of Landry—a stranger in the district,
but who had lately been appointed by the
lord of the manor as one of the keepers of
his game preserves. Landry testified that
be had seen Laroche cutting a stake from
a hedge on the afternoon previous to the
murder, and that he had reproved him for
it, and, taking the stake from him, had
stuck it in the bank of the ledge at a par
ticular spot. The stake WirS the same one
that was found lying near the body of the
murdered farmer. Landry could swear to
it, because, after taking it from Laroche,
be had nicked it in a peculiar way with his
knife.
Now it so happened that the murdered
farmer bad many influential friends, while
Laroche had but few. Therefore Laroche
was convicted of the murder, and sentenced
to be banged on a certain day, at a certain
place; until which time he was placed in
the jail of the district—the third floor of
a large stone building, the lower part of
which was a mill. The prison consisted
of a single apartment, lighted by one small
'window at a height of about sixteen feet
from the floor. The side of the building
from which the 'window looked ran sheer
down to the water of a dark and deep river,
'which crept lazily by the mill, but quick
ened its pace a little lower down, until it
gradually became a rushing torrent, leap
ing wildly on to its fall over a perpendicular
ledge of rocks. Bodies carried over that
fall were said never to have been recovered,
and it was a fixed notion among the country
people that there was a force in the whirl
pool below by which everything falling into
it was carried down into the unexplored
abysses of the earth.
It was the day before that fixed for the
execution of young Laroche, and the priest
of the parish, 'Father Allard by name, had
been left alone with the prisoner, in order
to. repare him, by the consolation of reli
gion, for his approaching doom. To his
words of comfort Laroche listened with
humility and in silence, until the good fa
ther began to dilate upon his chances of
forgiveness in the next world for the terri
ble crime committed by him. Then the
prisoner electrified him by declaring his
perfect innocence of the crime—a position
'which he meant to maintain, he said, with
his latest breath.
To be brief, the youth of the prisoner,
his earnest asseveration of innocence, and
a wavering doubt of his guilt which had
all along troubled Father Allard's mind,
so wrought upon that worthy man that he
at last consented to commit himself to a
plan for giving the prisoner a chance of
escape, if not from death, at least from ig
nominy of dying by the hands of the ac
cursed hangman.
"If I die by the gallows, most reverend
father," said the younff 6 man, "a great sor
row will some day fall upon all concerned
in my death. The real murderer is sure to
be discovered, sooner or later, and then I
Shall have been a murdered man, and the
just retribution of Heaven will pursue my
murderers. Aid me to escape, rather than
risk a great stain upon your conscience.
Stand upon this chair, which I place upon
the table, thus, and then, by mounting upon
your shoulders, I can reach the window and
drop from it.
" But the river below 1"
" I swim like an otter ; and, at any rate,
it is better to be drowned than hanged."
Convinced of the young man's inno
cence, Father Allard consented to aid
him n his escape. A moment sufficed to
carry the plan into execution. The pri
soner gained the window, and disappeared.
Parading in a straggling way outside the
building, went one of the minor officers-of
justice—"stolid peasant, who. had been
placed there by way ofsentry, and who at
this moment happened to be looking to
wards the river wall of the mill. His sight
nearly left him, as he afterward ‘slated;'
when he saw a man drop from the window,
strike on to a platform that protruded from
a doorway in the second story, and, re
bounding from that, fell . into the water
itik a heavy plunge, reappearing at inter
vals, until he was carried away into the
ra ids below.
he alarm was at once given. Village
oflicials rushed to the prison room, where
they found Father Allard, alone, seated in
the chair, pale, and as if just recovering
from the sight of some supernatural vision.
To the questions put to him he replied that,
as be was admi nistering the consolation of
his holy office to the prisoner, a voice sound
ed through the apartment, accompanied by
the shadow of a mighty pair of wings, on
Which the prisoner mounted to the ceiling
lathe apartment, and was no more seen by
him. The voice, he added, proclaimed the
prisoner's innocence, and that the real cir
cumstances of the murder would soon be
tnade•manifest. It was a miracle, and the
good country people, ever ready to accept
that form of interposition, were easily per
suaded to do so on the present occasion.
Meantime, Laroche, when he leaped from
the window, bad forgotten all about the
platform. As he fell upon it, he displaced
a sack of grain, which splashed into the
dark waters of the river, appearing to the
eyes of the bewildered sentry to be the
body of the man who had dropped from
the prison window. Laroche lay upon the
narrow platform, stunned by his heavy fall.
Spiride, the miller's daughter, saw him fall.
There was no one else in the mill at the
time.' She drew him quickly behind the
sacks and great heaps of grain on the floor,.

storatives as her young experience sug

and told him to lie still.

themselves to mourning for her awful fate.
Less than six months after, this - Landry
was tried for the murder of a brother keep
er,,antl, was convicted and hanged accord
ingly. Previous to his execution, however,
lie made a clean breast of it to -Father Al
lard, confessing that lie had murdered the
farmer for his money, killing him with the
stake cut from the hedge by young La
roche, which, as he
stated, singularly
eno ugh, s uggested to him the idea of com
mitting the crime.
Two years elapsed, and Father Allard
bad been promoted to a parish at a dis
tance of some fifty miles from the one of
which he had been pastor for so many
years. •
Shortly afterhis arrival there, his duties
led him to take a journey on, horseback,
some miles into the interior of the parish of
which he had charge. Part of the road
travelled by him wound through a swampy
forest region, and, after a ride of several
miles, be came to a sluggish stream that
had formerly been spanned by a bridge,
of which nothing but the abutments now
remained, however. The priest turned his
horse's. head, and rode along the bank of
the river, hoping to find another bridge, or,
at least, a ford by whichhe could cross to
the further side; nor had he gone far when
he discerned, by hoof marks, a place where
cattle seemed to be in the habit of wading.
through, or coming to drink. The water
appeared to be shallow; so he urged his un—
willing horse into it, and got about half
way across when the animal began to plunge
and struggle violently, sinking at the same
time, as if drawn down by some invisible
power. Aware, .now, that he had fallen
into one of those quicksands which are not
uncommon in that part of France, the good
father knew that to throw himself from his
horse would be certain death, as the water
was not deep enough to swim in, and the
hungry sand at the bottom was .gasping
for him. He held his horse, therefore, and
shouted for help.
The .water was gaining upon him, as the
terrified horse sank deeper and deeper in
the treacherous stream. Up, up it came,
until it reached his saddle fiaps, and then
his knees and he gave himself up for lost;
when distant shouts came in .response to
his, which were growing feebler with each
repetition. And now a Man bursts his way
through the•brushwood on the river bank,
and, laying his axe upon a tall, slender,
young tree, cuts it clown with four or five
rapid strokes, leaning it so that it falls out
upon the water, its topmost boughs just
brushing the sinking horseman in its fall.
Grasping the boughs with all his remaining
strength, the priest was drairn to the bank
by the woodsman, fainting and senseless,
however, and with hardly a visible spark
of life. .
A. S. How:mit
When Father Allard recovered conscious
ness he found himself in a small but com
fortable room. Seeing him open his eyes,
a buxom young woman, who was bathing
his temples, uttered an exclamation of joy,
calling him by name • and now, as his
dizzy senses brightened', what was his sur
prise to recognize in his attendant the lost
Spiride ! Explanations ensued, and all was
made as clear as day, without recourse to
marvel or miracle.
Presently Laroche, who had been en
gaged, with the assistance of some neigh
bors, in extricating the priest's- horse,
came in, and the meeting was an.affecting
one between the two, each of whom had
been thus wonderfully appointed by,. Phivi
dence to preserve the other.
" My conscience is clear now," said Fa
ther Allard. " Heaven has surely pardoned
the little fiction framed by me, else why—"
"But hold, reverend father," cried La
roche, interrupting him ; "there was no
fiction in the case ; you said that I was car
ried a*ay by an angers wings, and so
was, and this is the angel that saved me !"
And he laughingly threw his arms around
his pretty wife, and hugged her to his side.
Poetical justice might now have been
well satisfied, but I have a few words fur
ther to add upon the subject.
Laroche, who was now employed as for
ester upon an estate, was enabled by the
assistance of Father Allard to return to
his native village, where, not long after,
hi obtained an appointment to the .vdry
keepership formerly held by the assassin
Landry. The mystery attending his mira
culous escape and reappearance gave him
an extraordinary influence among the pea
santry. Stories lose nothing by circula
tion. He eventually became a sanctified
personage in the community.; and a.radely
carved effigy of him is still to be seen in
the chapel of the parish, with a pair of
angel's wings hovering over him, and a
cross at his head and feet. •
CURB you SMALL-Pox.—The following prescrip
tion is vouched for by the Eastport (Ate.) Sentinel- as
a cure for the small-pox:
"Give the, patient two table-spoonfuls of a mix
ture of hop yeast and water, sweetened with molas
ses so as to bepalatable, equal parts of each three
times a day. Children under twelve years of age
should take two tea-spoonfuls three times a day.
Diet—Boiled rice and milk, and toasted bread moist
ened with water and without butter. Eat no meat.
Give catnip tea as often as the patient is thirsty.
When convalescent give sparingly broiled bun
steak, lean, without butter, ohly the juice to be
Swallowed. Give physic when necessary. If the
above treatment Is strictly. followed no marks of
small-pox will remain."
AN ANTIQUARIAN OURIOSITY.—POUtideII Friday
last, on Lot No. 2, Con. 4, township of Sarnia, about
three feet in bine clay, the fossil remains of an ani
mal of gigantic proportions. The skeleton appears
to have been nearly perfect, and measured from
bead to tall about 11 feet. The teeth are in a perfect
state of fossil, the enamel having a vitrified or
porcelain appearance. The jaw-bones are huge
looking masticators, and the appearance of the
different parts is- such as to excite a large amount
of curiosity in the geologically Inclined. A similar
specimen was found near Hamilton a few years ago,
which commanded no little interest among the
literati. The discovery was made while digging for
a cistern near the house of llar. Birds, but unfortu
nately by those who did notiFalize the value of the
object. The news was brought yesterday to B. S.
Chalmers, Esq., who at once repaired to the place
and gathered as many of the parts as were left by
boys and others, and brought them to town, where
they are regarded as great' curiosities. Mr. Chat
men sintends sending them to the Toronto University
for the benefit of the institution, and would be happy
if all who may have any part of the remains in their
possession would forward them to him, in order that
the skeleton might be as perfect as possible. The
kind of animal, its habits and period of existence,
will be spoken of Itereatter.—Sarnia Canadian.
LOCH WITHOUT A KEYHOLE.—The impossibility
of rendering a strong box altogether sate against
theft, by means of skeleton keys, has led a locksmith
on Frankfort-on-the-Main to hit upon the ingenious
idea of constructing a strong box without any key
hole at all, and which even the owner himself
cannot open. Why, what's the use of such a box 1
you will ask. But observe, inside in a clock-work,
the hand of which the owner places at the hour and
minute when be wants access to the box. The clock
work begins to move as soon as the lid IS shut, and
opens the lock from the inside at the moment which
the band 6f the clock indicates. Time, dependent
upon the owner, Is the key to the lock, a key which

PERSONAL.
A correspondent of the Herald', writing from
before Atlanta, July 29, says: A serious emente
occurred yesterday between Major* Genetal G. M.
Dodge and Brigadier General T. W. Sweeny, arising
from a difference of opinion concerning the recent
battle on the left. Contradictions were followed by
very strong adjectives; from personalities came
blows. Chesterfield was ignored, and rules and
regulations" forgotten, s e the "stars" became
more and more excited. The result was that the
superior put the inferior officer under arrest. The
latter did not give up his sword. Elliot W. Rice,
colonel of the 7th lowa Infantry, then commanding
the let Brigade, was assigned to the command of
the division, and Lieutenant Colonel James C.
Parrott, 7th lowa, to take the Colonel's place at
the head of the brigade. This morning General
Sweeny was ordered to proceed to Nashville, to.
await trial on charges preferred. He left this„af
ternOon, and Brigadier General John M. Corse, of
General ShermanPs staff, now commands the vete;
ran 2d Division, lath Corps. Ido not propoee to
discuss the Ineritsar demerits of this affair, but I
am extremely sorry that the army loses so brave an
officer at this juncture.
We find the following extract in the Monde:
"We have received letters from Rome, dated July
4th. The writer was an eye-witness of the following
circumstances; which occurred on that very day,
and which is a fresh proof of the perfect restoration
of the health of our Holy Father the Pope. Mgr.
Lynch, Bishop of Charleston, at the close of a
private audience with which he had been favored
by the Sovereign Pontiff, requested and obtained
permission to present to his Holiness several
Americans, Who were desirous of obtaining the
blessing of the common Father of the faithful
before leaving the Eternal City. Among them
was Dr. klisha Gregory, an eminent medical
man of the town of St. Louis, Mo., a convert of
some years' standing. The Bishop of Charleston
mentioned, while presenting him, the high position
doh the Doctor occupies in his native town, and
the Christian charity which fee practices there. His
Holiness asked the doctor several questions, espe
cially about his visits to the hospitals In Rome;
then, holding out his arm, he said, in the hearty
tone which is so natural to him : You are a doctor ;
feel my pulse.' With a sang frofd, truly American,
the Doctor did so at once, andias carefolly as 'if he
bad been among his ordinary patients. ' The news
papers tell me every day that I am-at death's door;
what is your opinion, Doctor 'l' The latter was si
lent; his head was bent, though his counte
nance was calm, he. seemed absorbed in deep
thought. 'I know,' contained tie Holy Father, that
I must die when God shall will it, but I don't feel
exactly' like dying . atilhe" Present moment.' At
length the Doctor rabid his head. 'Normal condi
tion t' said he; that noise is strong, and betokens
perfect health. There is not the least sign of ma
lady."'
After a painful lapse of three and a half years,
-we have at last been officially notified of the causes
which led to the death of Mr. James H. Jaiikson,
the former proprietor of thi Marshal House In this
city. In the inquisition paper returned to the coun
ty court on Thursday last, WO recorded that - “at

LITERARY.
—A correspondent at Bowdoln wiles to the Bos
ton Advertiser:
"I recently found in an old drawer a collection of
papers which turned out to be the manuscript 'parts)
of students .in the college at exhibitions and com
mencements at an early period of its history. Among
them are the performances of Hawthorne, Longfef

poet, Colonel Hllario Ascasubi, while at Paris, in
November last, read the above appeal, and made a
vow to bring from the. Rio de la Plata a willow, to

arriving at Buenos Ayres, Colonel Ascasubi sent to
the banks of Parana for a weeping -willow, which

shipped to the steamer Guyenne, and treated as a

After crossing the Atlantic, the willow was brought
to Paris, and planted, on Saturday last, beside the
tomb of the author of 'Rolla' and Les Nulls.' '1
