In a -rave yard situated in a wild rural place, ibo;it a mile from ahtile village in this vicinity, iin Is a verv neat "rauite monument, it is ihe kiniv monument in the yard, and stands by itself. iu r a solitary grave, apart from all other graves. ite history of that monument, which is known, Wubly, to many of our readers, is interesting j SHI 1 melancholy, in ihe extreme. It marks the tun where lies buried the young wife of one of llV vouns men of the village. He was married i l, 'w vcars since, to one who seemed in every w,v calculated to make him happy. At that iiue the prospects of ihe young couple bid fair or a long hie ot happiness and uselumess. in war or two alter iheir marriage the small ti'x broke out and raged in the neighborhood, 'he vounn- wife was attacked with this dread ed disease and became its victim. I he fears f the community prevented her friends from tiendhi" her during her sickness. Her hus- anJ, her physician, and one or two attendants ere the only persons who were present lo mooihe down her dying pillow. The same ;ars took away ihe accustomed lorms of a hristian burial. A spot for her grave was minted out, in the grave yard remote lrom other raes, bv ihe proper authorities and at the dark lioiir of nisht, with none present but ihe hus- iiand, the physician and one or two fearless friends the burta look place. 1 here was no long irain of kindred to witness the ceremony ; ihe afflicted husband was -she only relative, who, n the burial, ventured to shed the last tear over, llic grave of ihe loved ami the departed. The young man found in the death of his k-oung wife, and ihe circumstances attending it, blow which weighed him down in sorrow. A hitle child though constantly expose during the sickness of his mother, escaped and remained lo lessen his grief. Time came slowly jr, of fering its services to heal the wounds of the husband ; lime could somewhat assuage his irief, but could riot heal his wounded heart. ioihing but cold oblivion could have caused htm lo forget the object of his earliest affection, I x to cease to shed Irequent tears over her mem-i ary. i Months rolled onj and black melancholy slill ooded over the young man, but stwu loosen- d its hold, somewhat. Sorrow stili remained, u; it was soon minified wilh resignation. He esumed his accustomed occupation, and scem- u to forget the past. The past was not for otten, however, nor the object which the past ad endeared to him. The grave of his wife was solitary and alone. Over that grave he resolved to erect a monument to her memory. 'I hat monument, although a blacksmith by trade, he chose to plan and work wiih his own hands. He procured the rongh blocks of granite and commenced his pleasing task, Every leisure our he could obtain was spe.nl on his favorite work. Nd other head planned and no other hand, than his own, executed. Month after nonih, alone and unaided, with no knowledge :f the art except what nature had taught him, onetimes at noon-dav and sometimes at night when others hud left their tasks, he lojled on, until his work was completed. That monu ment, which', as a specimen of art, is exceed ingly fine, and would be an ornament even in Mo:mt Auburn, now marks out the grave of his wjfp. While it serves to call to mind ihe mem ory of ihe dead, it speaks also of the constancy 5H..1 purity of affections which death and time ccjIJ not destro-. A Wretched ScEXE.-The Rev.
