hud succeeded in leaving on their mine's.,
The lovers were again brought together under
what seemed a providential cireumstance,
and their former attachment still -remained
unchanged as on the day tliey last
met.
It was the captain's desire that the engagement
should bo renewed on the sjw>t;
and he promised, in the presence of Nfr. Lincoln,
t<> divide, equally, his fortune with Adalit:
ho dav that, sluMiecame the wife*of
William West more.
Of course the proposition was acceded to ..
with iov by all parties concerned ; and the J
day they were married Westmoro came' into t
possession of a fortune, the interest of which
alone yielded him fifteen hundred per year, *
which placed him beyond the necessity of
oiiicinUng as clerk for any man. art any price..'
Thus were the sad and cheerless prospect* 1 \
of the unfortunate youth suddenly changed j '
to. a bright hope ; and the sligld far or whichi
he found it in his heart to Wstow upon" an
other had proved like "bread c;t>t upon the
whtets," tethrftinglo him with interest up-;1
on interest, and bringing >\"ith it that feeling t
of grateful joy whicli is ever the reward of a1 \
kind action or a good deed. ; ,
The -selfish and parsimonious merchant,
learned a loasoiibv the sudden loss of bis
cheap clerk ; and a* he found it difficult to ,
stf^ply Iris plac'e, even at a' rodoubteilsalary.
his eyes were gradually opened to the great '
error of his business career, and the heart
and home of many a poor laborer was made
to rejoice from lite ellVots of that lc&on on
his future course of life. .1
It may be named that MLs Lincoln was!
really Miss Hr'7wn, bat. had adopted her (
uncle's name merely to g atify his wishes I
1 John Wilson soon afterwards married and I
aettled near his friends.
With his new associations, his gradually;
increasing wealth and his lovely wife, who :
was the light of his liouie and the dm in of
his life, William Westmoro was often through
life reminded that a kindnkss is xevkii i.ost
An Interesting Incident.
Fiikk-tiiinkkus an<J infidels often ridicule,
religion, and those who .embrace it, but there ;
is tliat within them which tells them that [
religion is reality, an 1 that those who are j
actuated, by its spirit, and governed by it-*
principal*, are entitled to conlideiice and res-j
n vd
J. .
The following anecdote was related to u$
n few day* since. it has probably been pub '
Ii.shod niid" better tlian we can toll it?but it p
wif! bear ropetiiioti.
Two men were travelling in the far wc-t :
one-a skeptic and the other a clnistian. The
former was on ovorv oeen->ion ready to floinounce
religion as an imposture, and pr? fessors
as liyjxxiites. According to Iiisj
own account of the- matte r, ho always mis- j
peetcd those who made pretensions to piety '
?felt particularly exposed in thocompany ol :
Christians?look special care of his horse
and liis pockets when the saints wore around
him.
They had travelled late cite evening, and j
were in the wilderness ; they at last drew j
near to a solitary hut, and rejoiced at the
prospect of a shelter, however humble.? |
They asked admission and obtained it. lint
it was almost as dreary and comfortless as j
without ; and then- was nothing proposes-1
ing in the appearance of the inhabitants.?
These were an eldeilv man, Lis wife and1
two sous?sun burnt, hardy and rough.?
They were apparently hospitable, and we!-1
corned the travellers to sucli homely fare as j
tho forest afforded ; but this air of kindness;
might be assumed to deceive them, and the.
travellers become scibnialy apprehensive that
evil was intended. It was aloncly place, stti-. 1
ted to deeds id robbery stud blood. Nohclp'i
was at h Jit id. The two f.iends comtv.unica-J i
ted to each other their apprehensions, audi:
resolved that on retiring to their pint of the!"
hut?.for there were tyro apartments in it!
they "Would sfcttre it as W..11 as they could I
against the entrance of their host?would ;
have their weapons of defence at hand, and
would take turns through the night in
watching, so that one of them should bo constantly
cn guard while the other slept. I
Having hastily made thtrir arrangements,
they joined tlm family, partook of their
homely fare, and spoke of retiring to rest.?
The old man raid it had been his practice in
l>etter times, and he continued it still, before
his family went to rest at night to commend i
t<? (tiu] Jilul it' llw* ufi-mM'iMat li?J nil I
objection ho would do so now. The Chris-;
tian rejoiced to hud a brother in the wilJoruess,
and even the skeptic could not conceal; .
liissatisfaction at the proposition. The old i
man took down a well worn Bible, en which j 1
no dust was gathered, though age had inaik- ]
ed it, and read with reverence a portion of ;
the Sacred Scriptures. He then supplicated i .
the l>ivinc protection, ac!:iiow!e<tfc<b the di-'
vine goodiic-s, an I prayed for pardon, gnij
dance,grace and salvation. He prayed, too,
for the strangers : that they might l?e pros-1
irered on tiieir journey and at tiro close ot
their Earthly journey, they lnight have a'
home in Heaven, He was evidently a ...an
of prayer, and that humble cottage was a
place where prayer was wont to be made.
The travellers retired to their apartment. >
According to their previous arrangements,
ihc skeptic was to lijpre the Ijrst watch of the,
night, but instead ot priming his pistols and '
bracing bis nerves for the attack, lie was for j
wrapping himself in his great cent and over- j
ing himself in his blanket, as if he lia'l never
thought of danger. Jlis friend reminded
hiin of their arrangement*, and asked l.im j
Jiow ho had l?*st lbs apprehensions of da?-|
gcr ? Tho skeptic felt the. force of the (pics-!
tion. nnd of all it implied?and ho had the,
frankness to acknowledge that he could not;
hut feel himself as safe as at a New Knglaud ;
fireside in any house or in any forest where'
tho Bible was read as the old mmi read it.

tants to the prison dining 18ot, was GO,- . '

We publish t*-dav itn interesting account
f tho life of the Empcrbr Nicholas. There
re many liot disposed to belicvo Clio report
f his recent sleuth, but tire Washiongton ,

s entertained hy the members of tho govern- ;
net it here, or among the foreign officials in !
iVashington. The account eotucs through ;
o clear a clumiiel as to preclude all doubt!
if its correctness.
At Hr*t thought- most persons will con-!
hide that the death of the Cznr will cause ,
iftico. Hut this is by no mentis certain.? !
tt the latest accounts the only dissntislho- ;
ion woitliv of mention in lius*ia was be-;
a use hostilities were not carried-on with snf (
ieieiit ferocity. Tho war party held that
sicholas had conceded too much, ??ul acted '
oo stiictly on the defensive ; therefore, if lie
vas assassinated, it was more likely with the ''
'iew of colling the young Duke Constantino
o tlio throne, and pressing the war with
jrenter furv, than with tlio hope that tlio

On the Upper Mhsouri their exists &
tract of country by the name of Mouvnises
Teircs, or bad lands, at one time probably, ,
the bottom of an immense lake, in whieli
perished thousands of animals having no
representative on earth. it appears that ^
the waters of this immense jhuk! were removed
by some, convulsion of nature or 4^ ;
other, and the sediment at the bottom became
indurated. .. " _ /
The portion of the valley thus excavated
forms a surface of ninety miles in length*
and thirty miles in breadth. Tho remainsof
animals w hich lived and breathed long;
before the advent of man on earth arc foutiul
in such abundance as to form of this tract? '
an immense Cemetery vertehrata. The- ><?
j bones ate said to be completely petrified,.
and tin ir cavities lill.il with silicious matter..
They are preserved in various degrees of integrity,
some most beautifully perfect, and!
others bioken. Two remarkable speciesof
