heart was capable, and he returned to the
scene of his former happiness, instigated by
the sole desire—for revenge. - He skulked
about the neighborhood, lying hid during the
day time for_the most part, but watching ev
ery opportunity to way-lay and destroy his
rival.
At length they met in a wild, narrow mpUn
tain pass, a deadly and fierce struggle ensu

supposed. Daum. fled, and Ulrich 'recovered
and returned to his wife, pale, bleeding, and
faint. The officers sought for Daum in vain;
he had fled to
_England,- where he spent the
next six years of his life. The circumstance
had Passed .away from the public mind, and
the parties most interested had ceased to
think of them or to feel any apprehension of
Daurn's'return. Five years passed on, .and
the married couple, with their children, join
ed a party who were emigrating to America,
and came and settled down in the county of
Lapeer. There they resided in quiet, corn
fort, and -happiness for three years. The
wild farm had begun to assume the appear.

white-headed children playing around the
door,-the old German hound fa - Y watchfully
at the gate, and the truant sweetheart, now a
comely matron,' sang at the wheel, 'the-sweet
songs of her' 'Faderland. All was peace in
this sequestered home, when at the close of
a bright dry day in August, 183 S, a knock
was heard at the door, which was answered
by the woman, who., upon opening it, met the
face of her old suitor. -
The recognition was instant and mutual.--
Not a word passed bet Ween them; but while
the heart of one of there: sank within her
from very fear, that of -the•:Qther was roused
to a ghrenzY, which m?de itself manifest, in
a wild gleam of long gent-up vengeance..-
The„,husband was absent, having gone on
a distant hunting excursion in pursuit of deer,
and all that night, .with doors and windows
barred, a sleepless,: . tearful,lreinbling watch
er waited ttis return. .Ile came not, his step
never again crossed that threshold.- Precise

balmy Sunday morning upon the borders of
one of those' beautiful .little lakes which
lie
embossed in the flowery openings- of that

country 'found upon_ the beaCh; just within
the water's. edge, a human skull.. At a loss
to account for - its .appearance there,- he .
lowed up the steep, bold' - bank Which over - -

body to which the skull had belonged. A
jury was-at : once ,summoned to
-the-spot, and .
the, remains .were at -once ! identified by the .
half frantic iwidow;' whose ' Wounds were
••
opened afresh by Alte . ,discov,ery ,Which shut
out forever the last ray.. of hope which-had
lingered in her breast for a long,- sad *year.—
The - cause, and ''manner of the,death Of the
murdered man were obvious by an examine-.

dered man had never known w-ho or what
took his life. -,He:lay, as -he fell, upon his

side, and : upon his . . bleaching skeleton was
the hunting pouch hronght with him-from- hiS

was arrested Wand his , trial; which was Very
long and arduous - , in, , consequence of
,The ne

" A man is known by the company he
keeps„"says the adaarei---rneaning, if it means
.
anything, that while 'Purity is 'refining and
elevating, grossness is contaminating and de-.
grading—both make, their., mark upon:the:
man. If you go among dirt and dust you
will soil your person ; if you go among.im
morality, you sill corrupt your soul—and
the more'refined and 'Susceptible you are in
body and soul, the more will you suffer—as
the brightest surface is dimmed by a breath,
and the finest polish, is 'marred by the slight
est touch. •
• Now, let us reflect a moment on the amount
of grossness with which 'we are constantly
surrounded-. , Look at,the-thousands born and
brought up in, filth and ignorance, and con
sider" what a vast influence they must have
over everything and everybody. Are we not
contaminated by their presence, despite all
our efforts in our little narrow self-circle?—
Where did you get those .slang phrases:you
so frequently indulge in, and in which you
are imitated by your children Where did
your little boy learn to swear and fight ?
Did you teach it to him? Ah ! he learned
his naughty tricks and vile language in the
streets ! Well, he is not the only respecta
ble boy' who has imitated' the ugly, bluster
ing, and fighting urchins, who were born in
damp, dark cellars or dingy , garrets, where
swathed in rags, and nourished with filthy,
rottenness, they have grown up unchecked,,
amidst ignorance and- gross beastliness.—
Their parents were the victims of want, crime
and shame, and you cannot expect the chil
dren under such circumstances, I? be any'bet
ter than they are=to' be otherWisethangross
in every sense. They . have their influence
ever over 'you—you cannot go among them
without acquiring some of their baseldeas— !
without'your,s6UPs- taking in some of:their
grossness and. how,rnuch more is - this the case'
with yoUr children 1 "And these gross crea-,
tures.have a voice iniinaking the laws of the'
land, and a portion- of their girosnbss.fs

infuse their grossness into

and into the individual.- _The intellect of the.

High as the Rocky Mountains tower above

the married man tower above that of the Bach

Gentlemen, -there was a time, 1 blush to
say it, when I too was a bachelor;
,and a more
miserable creature you. ; would hardly expect
to find. Every day I toiled hard, and at night
I come home to my cornfortless garret—no
carpet, no fire, no nothing:. Everything was
in a clutter, and hi the words of the poet•,
" confusion was monarch of all I survey:"
Here lay a pair of oldpants, there apair of
boots, there a play-bill, 'and here a pile of
old clothes- What wonder that 1 took refuge
at the gamingiable and bar-room. I found
it :would never do, gentlemen, and in a lucky
moment. I ',vowed . to reform. Scarcely had
the promise passed my lips when a knock
was heard at the door, and in came Susan
Simpkins after my unwashed', clothes. '

Ueeftil Mints for Children
A frosty air does children good, if preper.:
ly protected by clothing, and they are able
to jump about and keep their blood in circu
lation. Care should be taken that they should
be so dressed as to secure the chest and bow.
els from cold. Flannel is the most impor
tant article in the dress, both of the Old and
young. The celebrated John Hunter said :
"if you wish your children to be :healthy,.
give them' plenty Of milk, plenty of sleep,
and plenty of flannel."
A modern medical writer has a word for
parents w.ho expose their children's limbs to
the cold. We commend the advice to all
who indulge in this practice : "I cannot passi
without a word to the barbarous regimen
which custom and• the ignorant conviction of
many parents have prescribed for infants and
young children. I allude to the practice of
half dressing children, which is adopted in
almost all weathers, sometimes with a view
to show off—sometimes, as is said, to irrvig
orate and harden the child. The continued
impreesion of cold thus allowed .to be made
upon the arms, shoulders, legs, and often bo
dies or young children, must result, unless
the power of .the system be very great, in
gradually establishing a congestive circula
tion, that will favor the developement of tu
bercles in the lungs, er mesenteric glands, of
dropsy of the brain, chronic diarrhoea, broil;
chitis, catarrh, and so on , to say nothing of
the multidudes of the little sufferers cut off
by croup, and other acute infla.mations. Pa=
rents should know. and not forget, that chil
dren have less power of generating heat that
adults; and "that, Consequently, in•:tool or
cold, weather, their bodies and limbs should
receive as careful .en•velepernent and protec
tion as those of grown per Sons liable to the
sarriedegree of exposure ; 'for a 7710,7*C ‘ careful

comfort and health will hardly admit of."
