With the midnight, with the storra-olond, With the darkness fierce' eeowliog, Wi'h the rattling of ho rain drops, with the tempest's drear j bowling. Through our weir; hearts, in darkness, we go battling, stumbling, groping. While despair is hard upon as aud e'en covering cp our homing, And ia sadness and in silenae for a gleam of light we pray. Then we yearn and call for ooaifort, bat on comfort comes unto a, And we wrap ourselve. in sadness, aud despair goes thrilling through us. And the darkness gathers round us with its horrors half nnepoken,

And pray again for succor that the dreary spell be broken With the light of something shining be it only one ray. Then within our hearts a blossom from the dreary mold is springing. Then the birds of hope make music wiih their sweet and cheerful singing; Then, upon their great clouds gating we discern their silver lining, Until throagh the wit of darkness bursts the sunbeam's glorious shining, And our longing eyes are greeted aith the bright and perfect day.

A Lucky Presentiment.

From All the Year Round. About sixty years ago, a remarkable case was tried at the criminal side, in the county of Cork. The writer wishes to pledge himself at the outset to the literal su'henticty of the narrative, which he heard from the lips of the late eminent queen's counsel, George Bennett, at that time a junior on the Man.

' Iri-h ideas of hospitality in the peasant ranks make it a matter of obligation upon : the host tu accompany bis guest fur a part of the way. Macarthy, in compliance with ' this curteous custom, set out with the

stranger, and about a mile away from bts house thay entered a little village, whete he shook hands with his visitor, and bid him farewell. But this visitor would not part without testifying his gratitude, according to the custom of the country, by treating his kinsman to come drink, which he insisted

To ali this the stranger consented, and then, as he was unat-qu jinted with the sit uation of tbe graveyard, he asktd M.car-

The stranger arged him to driok it, arid without explaining the cause of his hesitation, he a second time raised the vessel to his mouth. Precisely the same thing occurred again. Once more the stranger expostulated, and pressed him more vehemently to drink; and again he tried it but with exactly the same result. What hails ye? and why don't you drink your liquet? Dou't you like ii?' the stranger demanded. I dou't like it,' answered Macarthy, getting up, 'and I don't like you, nor your wajs, aud in God's name, I'll have noth iog more, good or bad, to say to you.' To the devil I pitch you and it, said

It so happened, however, that the physician was iu attendance at the dispeu oary. only a few yards away, and to him lliev submitted the white powder that lay

At this poiut all turned upon tha presentimeul which had so mysteriously determined Macarthy, without any motive ot which he was coucious, agaiust going over the styie before him. Macarthy was too powerful a man to have been assailed on fair terms, with a reasonable chanoe ci' the iotendlug assassin's eucoess Wheu the trial was over, Mr. Bennett, my informant, who, though not iu the

case, aud a very junior barrister at the

time, had listened to the trial witb oeep

interest, found an opportunity of speaking to the prosecutor, and asked him some

questions upon the most extraordinary

point in the strange ooeurrence deposed to

Martha and Mary. Commend u iu our good brethren of the elergy for anecdotes of pith and delicacy. At ihe house of the late Dr Archer; in London there was a gathering of friends and among them Dr. Harris. au thor of "Mammon" and Dr. Philip, of Maberly Chapel, author of 'The Marthas,' The Marys,' eto. In tbe eourse of conversation the question was mooted which was the most amiable of tbe two sisters of

Bethany, Mary "r Marth? Dr. Archer

replied:

'I preter M .rtha for the unselibness of

her character, in being more ready to pro

vide lor tbe comfort of her Lord than

gratify herself.'

Fray, rej nned Dr. Harris, addressing

r Pnuip, what is your view? Which

of tbe two do you thiuk would have made

the best wife?

'Well really,' replied the good man, 'I'm

at a loss; though L dare say, were 1 mak

Mary '

Dr. Archer, turning to Dr. Harris, said

suiirtlv:

Pray, Dr. Harris, which ot the two

should you prefei?'

I don't care, though; the brown-eyed objot really did ory as if she hadn't a friend in the world. ' Han? itl I wish I was rioh enough to help ever poor creature out of the alough of despond. While Ralph Moore was indulging in these very natural reflections, the darkeyed little damsel whom he Lad comforted was dashing down the street, with quipk. elastic footsteps utterly regardless of tbe

basket ot unsold nuts that still dangled on her arm. Down an obscure lane she darted, between ruinous rows of houses, and up a narrow wooden staircase, to a room where a pale, neat-looking woman, with large brown eyes like her own, was sewing aa busily as if tha breath of life depeoded upon every stitch, and two littla ones were contentedly playing in the sunshine that temporarily supplied the plaoe of fire. Mary! back already? surely yoa have not sold your chestnuts so soonr Ohl mother, mother, seel' ejaculated the almost breathless child. 'A gentleman gave me a half-crown. Only think, mother, a whole half-crown!' If Ralph Moore could ttave seen the rapture which his half-crown gift diffused arouud it in the poor widow's poverty-

stricken home he would have regarded still less the temporary privation of cigars

to which his generosity had subjected him. Years came and went. The little chest

nut girl passed as entirely out of Ralph

Moore s memory as if pleading eyes had

never touched the soft pari of his heart;

but Mary Jee never forgot, the stranger

who had given her the silver half-crown.

The crimson window curtains were clo-e

ly drawn down, to shut out tbe storm and

tempest of the bleak December night; the fire was glowing cheerily in the well filled

grate, and the dinner table, in a glitter without glass, rare "'china and polished

silver, was cniy waiting tor the presence

These statements are very instructive. Farmers and workmen do not arrive to

Typhoid Fever Successfully Treated with Milk. Alexander Yale, M. D , commanieates to the Medical Times and Gaaetto the following paper: There is nothing sew about the treatment of this fever by milk. As such treatment may not, however, be the gen eral one adopted, I have been induced t offer my testimony aa to its efficacy. It stands to reason that people, suffering; from disease, quite as much require foodas those iu health, a.id much more so ia certain diseases where there ia rapid waste of the system. Frequently all ordinary food in certain diseases is rejected by the stomach, is loathed by tho patient. Nature, ever beneficent, has furnished a food that in all diaeaaos ia baoofioiat -io eoma -directly curative. Such a food is milk. In the twenty-six cases we have treated of typhoid fever, its great value wa apparent. To be sure oar number is not large, yet sometimes tbe small indicates the resultant on a large scale. The indications we followed were 1. To cheek diarrheal, .2. L'o nourish the bodvf, 3. To cool the same. With regard to the dianLoai in typhoid fever, we believe it ought, if possible, to be checked, or at least restrained; for yoa might as well think of leaving a sore throat in scarlatina to take its course (being eliminative of fever poison), or irritate it a little, as of encouraging diarrheal in ty phoid tever. Astringents were used ia all cases (with occasioial doses of ipecacuanha), diluted sulphurie acid being found the most serviceable- The acid was used from beginning to end of the fever. We imagine that, in those oases which recover where diarrhea is encouraged, the patient got well in epite ot the treatment; for we beiieve that nothiog so much tesdto extending of ulceration, to hasiuorrhage, peritonitis, aad protracted convalescence aa the use of salines or each like remedies. Who would think of healing an ulcer by irritating it by not allowing rest, for the reparative powers of Nature to do their work? An ulcer in the ileum reouirea

rest as much as one in the leg.

When diarrheal became violent, the

most poweiful astriogenta were used, aod, when the bowels were once "looked up," they were so maintained for from ten to

fourteen days, with not only no incon

venience, but witb deoided advantage. To ool the body and to nourish it were the other two indications.'

1. As TO NoUBISUalEST That the

body in fever wistes rapidly is evident; and from the accumulation of waste ma

terial in tbe blood, aod the want of pabulum to feed tbe fever, the most disastrous

results eventuate resulting in death frora the fever drying up tha very issue of life. Now, if pabulum can be afforded to repair the textures that, from the action in the fVver poison, are being used up, one great, if not the greatest, object of treatment is attained; for fevers obey, like every thing else in this world, certain Died laws. Lika an object in vegetable life, there is the seod, the bud, the unfolding,' the full leaf, the withering; away aud decadence so with fevers and their incubation, iugraveseeue, etc. Now, if the body can be sustained until the fever has gone irs course, health will result Milk, of all things, seems bast adapted fortius purpose; for it is digestible, is relished by tever patients, contains all the requisite material for tha nourishment of the entire body--tbe nervous sjetern in especial, which in fev-er is always great" affected,. Furthermore. a tever there is great thirst.

pVuents ardently long for that whiet ''.'til cool the parehed mouth. Thus, by

interdicting the use of water in loto

throughout the fever, nourishment can always be given in the bhape of cold new milk. Cold beef tea is by no means to. be despised, but is much less relished, and' not unlrequently loathed when the fever is iutense, while uiiik is then taken with much gusto. Again, cold milk, when the diarrhea ia severe, exercises a most kind--ly action upou theileae ulcerations. The rule we adopted was to allow milk ad libitum In some cases quantities, far beyond what could be absorbed by a stomach, whose powers of absorption were reduced4 to a Biiuimum, were taken, a portion, of; the milk passing in an undigested state f rom tbe bowels. This, Lowevei, far from in my mind, being an objection, was a decided boon, for tbe milk, as it passed over the infliiued and ulcerated ileum, exercised a soothing influence. 2. To Cool the Boot Now, coldmilk is an admirable agent for cooling the .

body (cold water would do as well, but 5 then now milk nourishes and qoolaat the. same time,) aad heat is a prominent ymp . torn of fever Qfcrveo, I boil) and ; a meas- .

these cases was the dilutee sulphuric acid.

Concluding General Remarks .

Such were the measures relied upon in.

the treatment of twenty-six cases of ty

phoid fever. S;x of the eases were adults, over twenty-two yaars age, ten between nine zud iwenty.two tha remainder be-., iag under these agea. Tine was given in no case during the active oontinuancev of fever, as it increased, the diarrhoea (whan tried), and promoted delirium. VTheu the fever had left, and the patient ! became exhausted a-jd sleepiest, then wine . in three cases di4 well. N.evr more thanv six ounces was required per diem, aadj , that only for a few days (in an adult),

In two cases whre there was great raiua in ileum, bieter9 applied there did good. A few doses of tartar emetic and tiocure,.
