In her last hoars the prisoner was vary mneh ezdted. She ate souoeiy anytliing en Sunday night, and at midnight and daring the amaH hemrs of Monday meming she was heard meaning heavily and singioK snatohea of hymni. In the momiiig,wlMn the warden entered tha cell te {urepare her for *x-Kmtlen she looked wearied and ezoltad, and »he had no appetite for snoh refreahaBents as were offered te her. With as iittle delay aa pestible the ezeoationer, Berry, of Bradferd, had lijer pinioned, and the onstemary pre- cession started fer the soafield, wliloh is erected en the sooth- wcat center of the pris- on. Heading the prooeaaieB came tiie pih- on chaplaini reading the prayera. He waa followed by the prisoner, supported by twe female warders, with twe mate whrders in the rear. As the preoaesion left the cell in which the prisoner had been confined, one of the warders took np a pesitien en the roadway a short distance fiem the scaffold, in order te see that the sentence waa pro- perly carried Into effect. A little farther aw» steed the repreaentatlvee ef the press. Sa^the tailing of the prison bell and the screaming ef the poor woman, who was iMlng led to fxecntien, nothing was seen or heard for a minnte or twe by these who were wait- ing. Aa the preoession APPROACHED THS SCATFOLD the voice ef the chaplain was drowned by the prisoner's appeals te 0«d for meroy. " Oh, Lord have meroy I" •• Oh, fergire me, forgive me 1 ' S.ie cried piteonsiy. A few mir-ntes saffijed to bring the precession aleng the covered way oonneotiag the oeUs with the scafiold, and .tise prisoner, who looked thin and pale, was still shrieking with snch yo|oe as was left to her. It waa feared there weald soon be a scene en the scaffold, bat it was not so, Aa soon as the prisoner liad been placed nnder the beam her face covered in the uanal manner, the rope was pnt round her neck, and at a given signal from the exeontloner, the two female warders let go their, held of the prisoner^ The bolt was then drawn, and in an instant the woman was hanging at the end of the rope dead. The length of the rope was seven feet. Ttie length of the drop was seven feet. The hoisting of the black flag informed the crowd outside that the prisoner had suffered the last penalty of the law. SIOBT OF THE OBIHE. The crime far whioh Mrs. Bdtlaad has paid the full penalty of the law was ef a very extraordinary character. At the beginning of the year she resided at Aahten with her husband and two grown np danghters, and near them lived Themas Dixen and his wife. A close intimacy seemed te exiet between the two families, amd Mrs. Brttland was often seen in the cem];aay ef Dlxen, amd oo one eccasloB went en a janmey te Oldham in his company. In March last Mrs. Brit- land's daughter, who was engaged te be married, beeaoie suddenly iU, and died in great agony. Early In May Mrs. Bcitland's hu^bimd died nnder similar ctrcamstanoea, and a fortnight later Mrs. Dixon suddenly became ill and succumbed. Various rumors were circulated, and on the police making OBqairies ttey found Mrs. B-rltland had been a fr4 quent purchaser ef "mouse powder," The symptoms before death and an investi- gatien ot the bodies of the deceased led to the belief that tbey had been poisoned. Af- ter the death of Mrs. DIxan, Mrs. Britland seems to have been greatly alarmed, and In a cenvertatien with Mr. Iaw, a oefiee tavern keeper, asked him ** If they could tell if a person had been paiaoned?" and ' If they could discover if the person had mouse pow- der I" The police apprehended Mrs, Bdt- land, and also Thomas Dixon, the husbamd of the deceased woman, but Dixon was sub- sequently discharged. When being sentenc- ed to death, Mrs. Britland strongly pro- tested her innocence, and said she had not given poison to Mrs. Dixon. rOB THE TflOTJGHTPUL RrtKjrion is our life, being essential te our peaot !.' mind, our support nnder the trials of life, »r.6. enr fitness for the eternal world. We ought not to leek back, unless it ia to derive naefal lessens frem past errors and for the purpose ef profiting by dear-benght experience. Unless we are prepared to assert that all goodness oniminates in ourselves and recedes from others in exaot proportion to their dis- tance from us, we must admit that our feel- Irg^ are large factors ef injustice in the judgment that we are all ef us only toe ready to form. Few oompuions are mere delightful, aa few alio are mere rare, than a sympathetic person. So many good qualities make up the ideal sympathetic natureâ€" tact, unael- fiahnets, a knowledge ef many subjectsâ€" that it is not wonderful taat such gifted per- sons should be the exoeptlons, net the role, Trials of every kind may await you, sterner and darker than any yet experienced.

Da not, as yen prize your own soul, forget that your strength for every conflict depends on your being girded fer each as It comes, and never being cweless er weary. If we find that ear time passes slowly and heavily, we may be sure there is something wrong within. £lther we have net enough te do or we work me ch an i cally without heart er energy.

Same nine months later the clergyman happening to go to Cat- tle Hill, where the drovers wwe, sawBrJugh, amd joyously laid claim te him but Ringh's new master, a drevar, refused to give the dog up, and there was a dispute. O.^ course the drovers were in sympathy with thdr fellow, and the clergyman fonnd the odds against him. The drover sdd that he had owned Rough for yeaurs the minister held to it that R3ugh waM the very Rough he had raised. Twe policemen came rnnning up, and the case was stated, " Bat how oan yon prove ownership " asked one of the officers. That pnt the minister in mfaid of something. He thrust his huid into a poc- ket, pulled out a penny, and gave it te the dog with the command, " Rough, fetch a loaf." Rough, with* the penny In his month, went te the nearest bakery, made it clear thait be wanted some bread, and seen caune trotting baok te the crowd. The olwgymaa broke off a morsel, gave It to Rjugh, and stood by while thedog munched tt. Suddenly the dergymam exclaimed, " R af{h, I believe that bread Is poken- ed " Oat the dog spat the plooe of bread, and tbe crowd crf^ '" B.-avol" There waa no longer doubt as to the true ownership, amd to the shame of the drover the dog trotted off at the m nister's heela. When William Dies.

Nat long aigo a sen- sation was oaoMd by a celebration at the Spandan armory over the completion ef the last ef the 100.000 repeating rifles for Ger- man troops. Daring the summer 2.200 men have bean employed at Erf nrth. Span- dan amd elsewherein converting the Mauser rifl-a loto a repeating arm, at the rate of 1,200 daily.

It is related that Poter the Great, strell- ing Inobgnito through the camp, came upon a party of n«n cemmiasioned efficsri amd grenadiers enacting a comedy. All at once his brow became clouded. In the piece a soldier, in the uniform of his guard, commits at a certain moment a robbery. Neverthe- less he allowed the play to proceed. The coart- martial U summoned on the stage and the thief is sentenoed to death. The specta- tors, composed of officers and men, shewed the most lively concern in the performance, amd laughed at the grotesque contortions of the condemned culprit. The amateur actor played his part very well. Here came the squad that Js te execute him, " Fire I ' orders the lieutenant, and the amatanr drop? pod down dead, his heart pierced by seven ballets. No make believe, but dead indeed. Whereupon the Emperor cbreppod his Incog- nito and addressed these assembled "A soldier of my guard who committed a rob- bery most die.

The excellent biographer ef Lord Macao- lay, Mr. G. Trevelyaa, Is of opinion that the happiest half -hour ef Zmhary Macan- lay's life was when ho heard his ^ted son make hia mdden speech en the platform of am anti- slavery meeting, a speech was per- haps never snrpatssd by am orater who was addressing am audience for the first time. One passage called forth " a whirlwind of cheers." "The hour is at hand when the peasant of the Antilles will no longer crawl in list- less amd trembling de j motion round a planta- tion from whose froits he must derive no advantage, and a hut whose doer yields him no protection but when his cheerful and volontauty labor la performed, he will retarn with the firm step and erect brow of a B.'hish dtfitan frem the field, which is his freehold, to hi* cottage, which Is his casUe." These words, delivered with the calm, re-^ bust power of the young M-ioauIay, thrill the father's heart. The nexi speaiker was Mr. Wilberferce, who dluded te the presence of his amolent ally on an occasion of so much interest te him, both as a father and as a dtlien. "My friend," sdd Mr. Wllberforce, " would doubttess willingly beaur with all the base falsehoods, dl the vile calumnies, all the detestable artifices, which have been dmed at him, to render him the victim and martyr ef our cause, for the gratification he has tlds day eo joyed In hearing one so dear te him pleahd such a cause in such a man- ner." The eld man, true to his eld-fashioned principle of conceding from his boy the pride and joy he felt in him, sat .motionless during tke speech, with his eyes fixed upon a piece ef paper held as If he meant to take notes. In talking te his son in the evening, he made only one slight allualon to the scone of the afternoon, when he remarked that it was unbecoming in so young a mam to speak with folded arms in ^e presence of the royal prince who had presided. Zwshary Maoaolay lived until 1818, long enoagh to see his son the feremesi yeung man of kis time. He was buried in West- minster Abbey. Upon his monument he Is described as one who worked forty years agalnet slaveiy, and ** redgned to others the praise amd the reward." There are hours that crown life's efforts.

He had Idd up the wall to within a few feet of the top of the well, bat waM at the bottom of the well for some purpose; all of a sudden the bricks b«gam caving in at his feet, and the entire wall set- tied downward and began tumbling In. No help was at hand. Manzhardt tried to ex- tricate himself by climbing up on the brick as fast aw they fell, and in this way elevated himself seme five or six feet. The brick fell falter and faster, and at last he was caught amd held fast. The brick then covered him up for a distance ot ten feet. As soon as the accident was disoovered workmen went to his relief. They called to him and re- ceived answers. The work of removing the brick continued over four hours. At last the man was uncovered. He was standing upright. One arm extended, the other raised above his head. He waa wedged in so tightly that he oonld not move. The most singular pari; of the mkhap was that he was comparatively nninjared. A alight braise en his face aad a little knot on his head waM the only damage. The workmen releasing him enooaraged him all they could, and he kept urghig them to work hard. He says that his sensations during the four and one half hours' imprisonment were peouliaa beyond imagination, Imt that he was net nn- oensdens fer a moment.

Everybody was smiling, aad te relieve the lady's embarrassmeqi, her friead en- qaicod tiie odor of the baby's hair. " It's tiie same odor iw mamma's," he re- sponded timidly.
