Says Tom to Jem, as forth they went
To walk one evening fine,
" I wish the sky a great green field, .
And till its pastures mine,"
" And I," says Jem, "wish yonder stars,
That there so idly shine,
Were every one a good fat ox,
- And all those :sett mine."
'Where would your beard of cattle raze
" Why, in your pdsture fair." •
"They should not, that's a foot," said Tom
" They shall not, I declare 1"
With that they frowned, and -struck, and
fought,
And fiercely stood at bay,
And for„a foolish fancy cast
Their old regard away.
And many n war, on broader
Ilath stained the earth with gore,

Chief Justice Ulticit , s Eulogy
The May term of the ,Supreme,Ceurt for the
Middle District, commenced in Harrisburg on
Monday, tlni . - - ath lust. -AllAlielnattea
eat. ." Mr. B..bia, cf.i;aileaster, called Attei=
tion to the death of Judge liiiinos„ and after
briefly speaking of his high character, moved
that the Court adjourn for the day withimt
transacting any further business. His Honor,
Chief Justice BLACK, replied as follows, and
the Court adjourned
It is unnueesSary to say that every surviv a
leg member of the Court is deeply grieved by
the death of Mr. JuS . tice Gibson. In the bourse
of nature it was not to be expected that he
could live much longer, for he had
,attained
the ripe age of oeveuty•six. But the blow,
though not a'audden, was nevertheless ii:evere
one. The intimate relatims, personal and of
ficial, which we all bore to him, would have
been sufficient to account foi:,,seme emotion,
oven if he had been an ordinary mon. But
ho was the Nestor of the Bench whose wis
dam inspired the publiemiud with confidence
in our decisions. By this bereavement the
Court has lost what no time can repair k for
we shall never look upon his like again.
We regard him more 11) . ..p. father than a bro.'
[her. ~None of us ever save the Supreme Court
baffiro he was in it: and to some- of-us his
olMeneter as a great judge was familiar even_
in childhood. ' The earlithit knowledge of the
law we bad was derived in part from his lumi
nous exposition of it. lie was njudge of the
Common Pleas before the youngest of us was
born, nod was a member•of this,.Court long be
fore the oldest was admitted to the liar. For
nearly — a — quarter of a Century a wM3
_ .
Justice, and when he was nominally superse
ded by another, no the head of the Court, his
groat learning, venerable character, and over
ehadoWing reputation, still made hint the only-
Chief whom the hearts of the people would
know. In the course or his long service be
discussed and decided innumerable questions.
His opinions are found in no less than seventy
volumes of the regular reports, from 2. Ser
geant & Itawle to 6 llarris.
At the tiwo of his death he had been longer
in office than" a.ny cotemporary -judge in the
world; and in:some points'of charaoter he had
not his equal on the earth. Such vigor, clear
nett and precision or thought, was never be
fore united with the tame felinity of diction.
HBrougham has sketched Lord Stowell justly
enough as the greatest judicial writer that En
gland could boast of, for force and beauty of
style. Ile selects a:sentence and calls on the
reader-to admire the remarkable elegrtuce‘Of
its structure. I believe that Judge Gibson
never wrote an opinion in his life from which
a passage might not *be taken, stronger, as
well as more graceful in its turn of expiession,
than this which is selected with so Much care
by a most nalouifriend, from all of Lord
Stowell's:
Ilia written language, was a transcript of his
mind. it gave the world the very form and
I pressure of hie thoughts. -It was accurate be.
clause; ho knew' the exact boundaries of the
principles ho discussed„ Me mental vision
took falai° whole outline and all the details of
his case, and with a bold and steady hand be
painted what he saw; lle made others under
-stand him because hd understOod himself.

pick gold coins out from aloOng tappers. For
this reasonit is, thattheqgh he was the least
voluminous writer of thalionit, the'citatione
from him at the bar are More numerous than
from all the rest put together. '
The dignity, richness tiOintrity, of hie—Writ
ten opinions, was by no Means Ilia highest ti
tle to admiration. The metntnents of his mind
time as strong as -thefivere graceful: His
periods not only pleased Om ear but sunk into
the mind. He never wearied the reader, lint
he always exhausted the subject. An opinion
of hisivas 'an unbroken' ttilitio'n . or logic, from
begining to end. His 'argumentation was al
ways ciarnetvrieed tip great power, and some
times it rose into irresistible energy, dashing
opposition to pieces with afore e like that of a
- biliteriug ram.
,
He never missed the psiinj even of a cause
Which had been badly argued.
_Ho separated
the chaff from the wheat'almost tie soon ns he
got possession of kt.. The.,most• complicated
entanglement of fact and law would be reduc
ed to harmony under his hands. His arrange
ment was so lucid, that the dullest mind could
follow him with that intense pleasure which
we all feel in being able _to comprehend the
workings of an intellect eo manifestly supe
rior,
Vet ho committed errors. It is wonderful
that in the course of his long service he did
not commit more. A few , were caused by in
attention ; a few by want of time ; a few,by
preconceived notions whioh led him astray.—
When he did thresiliiinsay into the wrong side
of a (muse he usually made an argument which
it wne much easiet to overrule than to answer.
' With reference to his erroneous opinions,he
might have used the words-of Virgil, which he
quoted eo happily in Eakin vs. Raub, (12, S.
& It.) for another purpesti: , .

He was inflexibly honest. The judicial or
mine was as unspotted whenhotahrit aside for
habiliments of the grave, as when ha first as
sumed it. Ido not mean to award him merely
that common place integrity which it is no hon
or to - havd, but merely a disgrace to want. IF
was not only incorruptible, but scrupulously,
delicately, conscientiously free from elf wilful
wrong, either in the ... tight, word or deed.
Next after his wonderful intellectual endow
ments, the benevolence of Lie heart was the
most marked feature of Lis character. Ills was
a most genial spirit,• affectionate and kind to
his friends, and_tangnanimous to his enemies.

TUE GRAFTED APRICOTS.
And did your father make this fruit grow,
instead of bitter plums?"
." Yes, truly," said Jennie. This tree once
_bore plums just like that one on the other side
pf tho garden."'
'.:What! like .the ono which , I tasted and
then threwevir the fence?" said Maria.
" YOB, ju3t like it. — lt was a long time ago.
Fatter cut otrthe brandies, and then, making
with his knife a small bole in caoh place where
the branches were out, be put In little twigs,
he called them grafts." •
• Where did be get'thc twigs,.orgrafts?"—
eaid-Maria thoughtfully.
Why, from some free that he wished this

!"Well, how was it 1"
- As the warm weather came, the twigs be

"And did they bear aprioota 4"
"No, not that year, nor the nest, only ono
or two ; but the next but ono there wore more,
and now looli, the tree is full !" ,
Marie looked at the rich, delicate trait, and
her friend Jennie, shaVug a bough of the
thrifty little tree, the ripe apricots fell to the
ground. They nestled like balls of gold and
crimson-among-the-green--grass, •
'" It is my own tree," said Jennie, "my fath

you please with it.' So now the first that ri

and mother, and every day as long as the fruit
lasts I gather some for them; But now lam

Marla thanked her friend; but still thought
it very strange that the tree should St a age as
it were, its very' nature. So she asked Jennie
ng tin about it. Was it really the same tree
that had once borne the bitterplums.? Had
it not been out down and the apricot tree been
planted in the-same spot?
"No," said Jennie,. "-it is exactly as I tell
you. I have watched it every year sinee it
was grafted, —I remember.when it bore plums.
Itis the gory same trop ;" and Jennie went on
carefully filling her basket with the fittest of
the apricots. Marta looked on with pleasure,

sold. she thought, how strangdl
Yea, - Maria, but there is ono thing stranger
-still ; this is a mystery of nature, but there is

ofJennie's father as changed the annual crop
of bitter. plums to delicious fruit,.so, musing
and 'questioning child, nay the bitterness that

In the light of noon day, and surrounded

JUGGLING FEATS.
The author of the 'Oriental Annual,' an En
glish gentleman of unquestionable veracity,
gives an almost incredible description of ajug;
gling performance at iviiioh ho was present.—
The operator introduces into the middle of the ,
circle, a naked little girl, about eight yeari
.old, in a wyltr - baSket. The girl is shown to
all the. fectators. The operator then enters
into a :conversation with her, which soon as
sumes an angry tone ; ho threatens to kill her
with a drawn sword; she supplicates for mer
cy, and while her piteous cries grow louder
and louder, he plunges, the welpon into hot
bosom two or three times successively. The
earth is dyed with her blood, while her agon
izing-Van-a announce dissolution. ,The, spec-
tutors are ready to fall on the wretch whom
they believe to be guilty of so barbarous a
murder, when the little girl enters the circle
from without in her, usual attire and as gay as
if nothing had happened to her.
Antill more extraordinary feat was peAhrm
ed in the presence of the MoguldEmporor Jo
hangire, who.gives an account of it in Lis au
tobiography, The performer produced :a living .
man,whoso Load they, out off .iu.the instance.
They.noxt. divided the limbs from the trunk,
and the' mutilated remains lay on the ground
for some tim?. A curtain was then extended
over the spot;sand ono of the performers put-

it again in a few minutes, followed' by the in

fill with wafer. When this was done a cover
ing was spread Over' the:place, and after a
abort interval, having removed the cover. the
water appeared to be one sheet of ice, and they
'desired that some of the elephant-keepers
might be directed to lead the elephants across.
Aoeordingly, ono of his men set his elephant
upon the ice, ana the animal walked over with
as "much ease ne if it were a platform of solid
rock, 'remaining for . some time on the @prince
of the frozen pond withoUt occasioning the
slightest fracture in the ice. As before the
sheet was drawn aoross the place, and being
again removed, every vestige of ice, and even
moisture of any sort, had completely disap
peared.
THRILLING! INCIDENT.
The first settlement in Maine, found, beside
its-red-faced owners other and abuwdantsour
oes of annoyance and danger.
The majestic forests that then waved, whore
now is heard the hum of business, and whore
a thousand villages stand, were the homes of
innumerable wild and savage animals.
Often at night was the farmer's family a
roused from sleep by the noitio Without, which
told that bruin was - storming the sheep-pen or
pig-sty, or was laying violent paws upon some
unlucky calf; and often on a cold winter even
ing, did they roll a hirger log against the door,
and draw closer around the fire, as the, distant
howl of the wolf echoed through the woods.
The wolf was the most ferocious, bloodthirs
ty, but cowardly of all, rarely attacking a
man, unless driven by severe hunger, and
peeking his victim with the-utmost pertinacity.
TIM incident which I am about. to relate, oc-'
ourred in the early history of Bedford.
A man who then lived on the farm now oo-
onpied by Mr. was ono autumn en
gaged in falling trees at some distance from
his house. His little eon, eight years old, was
in the habit, while his mother was busy with
household cares, of running out into the fields
and woods around the house, and often going
where the father was at work. One day, after
the frost kad robbed the-trees of their foliage,
the father left hie'Work sooner than usual;and
started for home. Just by the edge of the for
est he saw n,ourious pile of loaves ;•witiout
stopping to think What had made it; he cau
tiously removed the leaves, when, what Was
his astonishment to find his own darling boy
! lying there sound asleep. 'Twee but the work
of a moment to take up the-little sleeper, put
in its place a small log, carefully replace the
leaves. and conceal himself among the nearest
bushes, there to watch the result.
After waiting a short time he heard a wolf's
distant howl, quickly followed by another and
another, till the whole woods seemed alive
with tke fearful sounds.
The howls came nearer, and in a few mo
ments a large; gaunt, savage-looking wolf,
leaped into the opening, closely followed by
the whole pack. The leader sprang directly
upon the pile of leaves, and in au instant scat
tered them in every direction,. Boon as he
sa* the deception, his. look of fierceness and
confidence changed tothat of the most abject
fear. He shrank back, cowered to the ground,
and passively awaited Lis fate; for the rest,•
enraged by , the supposed cheat, fell upon
tore him in pieces, and devoured him on the
spot.
When they bud finished their comrade, they
wheeled around, plunged into the forest .and •
disappeared; within five Minutes from their
first appearance, not a wolf was in sight. The
excited father pressed his chiltrto his bosom,
and thanked the kind Providence which led
him there to save his dear boy.
-- The - boy, - after playing till he was weary,
had lain down and fallen asleep, and in that
situationthe wolf had found him and covered .
him with'leaves, until he could bring hie com
rades to the feast, but hiroslif furnished the
repast.—Bedford Journal, ' -

A IMAUTIFUL THOUGHT.
A French paper relates - the following :
Monsieur D and wife were rich to him
uriance ; but they had a daughter, the eldest,
in whom . their pride bad onae centered, who,
by a sad dispensation of Providence ; was ren
dered a cripple foi life. NO marriage famed
no gay betrothoment lay before her desolate
and widowed maidenhood. But the parents,
with a tenderness worthy of nit emulation, a
toned for the lack of wooers y the eon/Annoy
and delicacy of their devotion ; and usher age
drew on to majority, they determined to sur
prise their unfortunate child with such show
of splendor and such token of their love as
should keep the smiles upon herpale face, and
lend such friends could lend to tho desolation
of her lot.
A new suite of apartments was lidded to
their rooms, unknown to her, and. furnished
with the richest of Parisian decorations. New
jow els were purchased anddisplayedapon the
delicately , wrought toilet tables.; a new por
trait of her pale face, done at the hands of the
most distinguished artist, hung upon the wall;
ind chairs and lounges ; rich with brdcade, in
vited to repose and languor. Garlands and
vases of orange flowers perfumed the air: gifts
from scores of frionds_vrere scattered arourid - ;
and everything bespoke the apparel and the
pleasures of tho bride.,
Upon the expected birthday \ ail the 'dearest
friends of the poor girl were invited toe fete;
and, by magic, as it seemed, tho'new apart , -
ments wore thrown open to hor beWildered
gaze,' and every article of luxury-was blazoned
with : her cipher.
The child turned inquiringly to her parents,
and by their caresses was tent& that the was_
her bridal day;' since now She was wedded
anew, by all these tokens, to her father's and
mother's love,' isrbloh would watch ever her In
the new and brilliant home always. lier,e too
she could invite, when and as she obese, the
friends of bar girlhood ; and if fate had Made
her fOr one of maidenly, retirement; it was'yet
qalokened with the luxurieS of_wealth, and the
better wealth of pareatal tepdornees.
