LET ME G0.110311E.
"Let me go home !"—'tis a'plaintive cry
On the Wayward path of infancy;
The truant is wearied and bramble-torn,
And it longs in it mother's arms to mourn,
And to feel its troubles hushed to sleep,
Wheie a mother's love itiewateh shall keep,
' , Rest, child. rest ! and never morn •
{Vender•awdy from thy father's door." -
..Let me go borne !"—'tis the exile'. prayer
0. what to him is the Grilmy air
Of the genial south, when
,farsway •
Where Whe the snows of the north ate on the track
O'erwhich the looked.for comes hot. hock !
He cameo! and brightly the earth shall burn
To light the joy of that blest return.
"Let nre'gb home !"—from the wanderer's breast
Bursta the heaving nigh of a soul's unreal:
Long bath he roamed through tountnes strange,
Breaking ties in the love of change ; •
One, long fdrsot, bath his prickeunmanned--
Ho would make his grave in his native land.
Through a ruined hall the night winds sweep
As we lay him down where . hurfather sleep.
"Lot me go twine !"--"Poor outcast, say,
Mast thou A home 1 4 ,..Ye5, a home of 01—
W/het - ever my tottering lest shall fail,•
There my. bfe shall end its mournful tole ;
And thky'll make me a home and I'll there abide,
Nor envy the homes of living pride:
Let no go home—to him who gave
Yetanother home--beyond the grave,!"
A Child's Evening Prayer.
The following . simple and beautiful lines
were -collapsed by the great poet S. T.
Coleridge, for the use of his daughte
when a child. A very little ingenuity ,
will be sufficient to make Such alterations
as may be necessary to suit the prayer to
the circumstances of every fireside : •
Ere vin my bed my limbs I lei;
God grant me grade my prayer to say ;-
0 Mel ! pretierve my mother dear
In strength . and health for many a year;
And, 0 ! preserie my father too.
And may I pay him reverence due. •
• And may Imy best thoughts employ
To be my patents' hope and joy ;
And 0 ! preserve my brothers ho
From evil doings and from s'oth;
hlay we always love each other.
Our friends, our lather, and our mother ;
And still, 0 Lord, to me impart
An innocent and grateful heart,
That after my last sleep I may
Awake to Thy eternal day I Amur. .
"Never Forget Your Itlother.l9

ferring to the death. of.the Jno. Da

poNonal suggestions and adviees of the
Ex-Goveruor, kindly and earuest.ly be
stowed in earlier years, and adds : "The
Last counsel we received from him was
charam,pristie of the man ; it was en the

could be given a lad launching forth on
"life's deceitful tide," where the chart
and compass of his young head and heart
must he his only protection from shipwreck.
Many years have passed away, and that
goo k ' man has finished the voyage Of time ;
he has disappeared adown the dark stream
of death, and, we doubt not, has reached.
that celestial haven, where the storms of

"I Caanot Pray Icor Father,'
She knelt at the accustomed hour. to
thank God for the mercies of the day, and
pray for care thiongh the coining night;
then, us usual, came the earnest "God
bless dear mother, and"—, but the
prayer was stilled ! the little hands un
clasped, and a look of agony and wonder
ihet the mother's eye ' as the words of
hopeless sorrow burst from the lips otthe
kneeling child, "I cannot pray for father
iany more !" Since her little lips had
been able to form the dear name, she pray
ed for a blessing upon it ; it had followed
close after mother's name, for he had „said
that must come first ; and now to say the
familiar prayer, and leave her father out ! ,
No wonder the new, thought seemed too
much for the childish mind to receive. 1
I waited for some moments, that she I
might conquer her emotion, and , then ur
ged her to goon. Her pleading eyes met
mine, and with i.voice that faltered ' , too
much, almost, for utterance, she said, "0,
mother, I cannotleave him all' out'! let
me say, 'thank God that I had a dear
father once!' so ..I can, still go on, ,and
keep him in my prayer." And so she al
ways does, 'and my stricken heart legirned
a lesson from the loving , ingenuity of my
child. Remember to thank. God for mei
cies past as well as to,ask blessings for the
future.--Pres(Verian. •

A day or two ago a gentleman-whose

somo three years old, and it was an inter

A Good Story.
Some of 'the students of the Indiana
State Cniversity, were suspected to be' in
the habit, of drinking, brandy. : -Where!
they obtained it-- was 0:- mystery. - -Dr.
Daily determined to ferret out the seeret.
Calling into a. small, drug store, the. pro
prietor asked him "how that sick 84140. ;
Mr. Carter, came oh I"Smellins . a rat,
Hie doctor answered in an' evasive man
uer,l and soon drew out. of the apothecary
that the students under suspicion had
been in the . habit of purchasing brandy
for a sick student by the name of Carter.;
that they said lie was quite low, and was
kept alive by ntimulanti; that the young
gentlemen seemed very much devoted to
him. Now- the secret was out.- This
Carter was a fictitious character, and the
doctor bud the secret. However, he kept
his own counsel. The next time the stu
dents assembled in chapel for prayers, he
satisfied himself that carter's nurses were
all present. The devotions' were duly;
conducted, and. then he called the atten
tion of the - students, remarking that ,he I
had a painful task to perform—as Presi.
dent of the UniverSity . it became, his duty
to announce the, death of their fellow stu- j
dent Mr. Carter. After a lingering ill-
ness of several weeks, a.portioh of which I
time he was kept alive by stimulants, ho I

Singular Case.
About eighteen months 'since, Ida, a
little girl of about four years old,. daugh
ter of Mr. M. Taylor, residing in. &nate
git, near Pearl street, complained
,very
meat of a sharp pain in the loiter part of
the left groin, and upon examination a
protrusion of hellesh was discovered as
if rupture had-occurred. Dr. Reily, one of,
our most distinguished physicians, atteu.
dod the case, and ordered a truss, the
pressure of which, however, the child
could not boar. Soon after, on , the right
side of the abdomen, a bard lump was de
tected, infismation. ensued, and a tumor
was manifest. The usual remedies were
applied for - along time, but the child grew
worse, and a' great rigidity of the system
supervened, and their seemed no probable
.relief but iu death. Suppuration, how.
ever, was in process, and the tumor was
finally lanced, when a considenOle dis
charge ensued: Temporary relief was ex-1
porienced, but the "child presently grew
worse ; complaining of something sticking
her. About two weeks since, being very
fretful, Mrs. Taylor carefully examined
the open wound. and perceiving some
thing that looked like a foreign substance
in the core of the tumor, she managed to
got hold of it, and to her utter amazement n
drew out a large pin, corroded. Dr. Reily
at once pronounced this the sole cause of
the disease, and it so turns out, for the
child has recovered its usual health, after
its long prostration, and runs about as well
as ever. The child is supposed to have 1 1
swallowed the pin, but when or tinder
what circumstances is unknown.-11a11.1 1

A young girl has stabbed herself she is
bleeding to death. Ono thousand dollars
if you save her. Come, oh, do not delay !"
and he rushed toward me as if to drag we

I hurried away with him, snatching my
instruments from the table as I passed it. I
think I never saw before sueh l convulsive
grief as this mau's face expressed. Ile was
a handsome, man, with jet black hair, clus

The lower part of his oiherwise feminine

in child-bed, was duly buried. the Cure of
the parish, whew house.. was close to the
cemetery, aftervrards hearing. moans from,
that place, called a medical min and ran to:
the, cemetery—but it was too left,. The;
unfortunate woman was found turned tm bee

but still warm: Her real death appitaied
to have been 'preceded by a severe struggle'
as the eeffin had been forced open,' and the
woman had torn her hair from her head
She' could not have been dead many minutes
before the persons arrived. This subject of
premature burials has excited the attention
of the French Governments and it is Oropc=
sad to establish dead houses, where the'bod
