'Look, Nary,' said he ; as she entered, 'here

claimed the astonished shoemaker. 'What

out, and very little. coming in, for some of my
best customers have left me, although my
work has always given satisfaction. It I
could only have as much work as usual, and
the usual credit allowed me, I could satisfy
these claims, but to meet them now is impos
sible, and the acknowledgment of my inabili

'We must do our best and trust to Provi
dence,' was the consolim remark of his wife,
as the second knock at the door aroused the
fear that another claimant was about to ap
pear.
But the benevolent countenance of Uncle
Joshua, a rare but welcome visitor, presented
itsclf. Seating himself in the comfortable
chair, which Mary hastened to hand him, he
said in his eccentric, but fliendly manner:
'Well, good fulk4, I understand that the
world does riot go on as well with you as for
merly. 'What is the trouble ?'
'There need be no trouble,' was the reply,
'if man would not try to add to the afflictions
which the Almighty sees to ho necessary for
us. The winter was a trying one; We met
with sickness and misfortune, which we ea

now go well if those around toe wore not de

'But there lies the difficulty, friend Thoutp.•

following words

it may be set down as - an inviolable : rule

Lion, dangerous to all with whom he may be
acquaintad. Ile circulates false impressions,
and sets people upon an erroneous ecurse of
Judgment and conduct in respect to others
which may frequently be ruinous to their
prosperity. It does a general injury t o
soreiety, more than to the party slandered,
as it destroys confidence. The person, who
is guilty of circulating malicious reports
must necessarily be deceitful and therefore
dishonest , he mast be abandoned to every
principle of moral feeling. In ancient times
when a man was convicted of being a &hin

and a curse to tho whole community. In
modern times there is even a better retnetly
than this, to cease all assooiations with such

A Strange Sort of Cemetery!
Travelentil° South America Lav'e made
litany strange discoveries there—as strange;
indeed, is those occasionally repotted in , the
fabled and interesting gist. .One of the la•
test is described as a sort of cemetery, above
ground, it is in the desert, of Atacama, a
platen in the wonderful Andes, at an eleva
tion of about four thousaud feet above the
sea. The: •only evidence that men ever ex
isted there, is that human bodies, as well as
1
those of mules and horsse, are scattered a•
boot on the .waste, dried and shriveled to
43 Mammies by the par?'
ara - tr►ng atmosphere. A
recent traveler la that region gives a graph
ic acconnt.of what ho saw, from which, we
select this description of the cemetery with
out graves: •

remains of an assemblage of human Whigs—
men, women and children—to the number of
five or six hundred., all apparently in the
'laces and attitudes which the , first occu-
pied, and which they have kept perhaps for
ages. There they sit in the sand, imtnova
hie, as in a solemn counoll, gaging vacantly,
with sunken and•dried eyeballs, into the arid
waste before them. Nearly all are io the
same position, though some have fallen down ,
and are partly covered with the sand. The
hot dry 6ir has'preserved them as imperial'.
ably as embalming art of the bodies of
Egypt.

`A thousand questions may be asked but

but travelers aver that grief and despair may

is a spot on the border of this desert called
Tucuman, which in the Indian language
means 'All is lost.' Perhaps the name corn
memorates the heroic resolution of these uni•

'lt is said, too, by those who have studied
the religious ideas of the ancient:Peruvians,
that they believed iu self sacrifice for their
country; that thus dying they would be
speedily removed to a better land toward the
West.'
11EPENTANCE.—There is an old legend of
a hermit who was led by au angel into a
wood, where was an old man cutting down
boughs to take away. When he had a great
many ha tied them up and tried to lift the
burden, but could not, so he laid it down,
and added more sticks, and then tried to raise
it, This he repeated several times, to the
astonishment of the hermit, who turned to
inquire the meaning of this strange cooduot.
