Thursday Morning', Feb. "9, 1871.

O.VE of the editors of (he Chicago Tribune thus speaks of his brother journalists: '"The puppies of journalism are just now barking in full chorus at the heels of Colonel Wm. M. GKOSVKNOR, whose connection with the tit. Louis Democrat, as its chief editor,, has terminated." Another editor says "that's what might be called dog-gone mean."

THE "little story'' of a sensible juror furnishes a hint for other jurymen, other localities*, who niay iind themselves in danger of suffocation from :i diarrlnrtic flow of legal bosh: "On a late trial before the superior court of New York City, after the Judge had charged the jury, and considerable time had been spent in trying to get his Honor to chargc this and not to chargc thai,and the merits of the case getting into confusion worse confounded, a juryman could stnnd it no longer. "I protest." he called out to the I

the Cincinnati Times remarks that would drive all Union officers out of many sections df the State. There is no legal principle that can be sustained before either judge or jury when passion or self-interest are against it. It is a elea enough principle that no officer in time of war renders himself personally liable for acts done orders of his superiors in command and

If the history of his youth was important, it is irreclaimably lost—hidden within the arcana of the churchyard, Those who are aged themselves, tells us of the great age of thia wanderer, and say they remember him looking almost the same as at the last of his pilgrimage while they were yet only boy?. By them it is claimed that he was not less than 90 years old, and from the scanty details of their gossip we learn what we know of his singular life. When a young man he was engaged to be married, and on his wedding day he attired himself for the ceremonies, when word came to him that his affianced had been suddenly taken away by death. The blow was too much for a sensitive Organization his mind was disordered and became "like sweet

Start ing from the western part of the State of New York, he included in his regular route certain roads across the northern part of this State, and parties along the line of his chosefr path were accustomed twice a year, at the same seasons, to expect his tall and slender form, habited ever in the same suit of gray. Constant exposure to theelements and his unremitting travel wore out the fabric of his marriage suit, and he would stop and ask of those who treated him kindly for the only .article.1 which he ever begged —thread and yarn—to mend his clothes, when he would sit down in

Extraordinary Circumstancc. Here is a queer romatfee: Mrs. Abljie Citmmiftg of Westboro', Mkss., who has been married four years and has a child, was recently accosted, while waiting for the cars in Boston, by ^n unknown man, who asked her to take a walk. She accepted, and the result was instant offer of marriage, Hnd acceptance, Mrs. Cumming telling -him tba!t 8ha,waa neither marrifid nor engaged. He then took her to Mrs. McKinney's—his ttibfher's—and introduced her as his affianced, representing that they had been engaged six months. Having satisfied tlie family by a plausible story as tp her antecedents, she was affectionately "treated, and the couple, thus strangely mated, were nrarned. Meanwhile, Mr. Cumming, getting wind of hin wife's whereabouts, came on in wrath and disclosed the deceit, to their general astonishment. A brother of McKinncy wished to prosecute her for fraud, but her friends shielded her by pronouncing her insane. She is now at home with husband number one, and the matter is

THE XOBLE FISHERBOY.

A Story of Heroism in Humble Life.

From the Boston Traveller.] Our correspondent "Delta," at St." Johns, Newfoundland, famishes us the following account of an accident in the history of the Labrador fisheries, which was briefly told at the time: -The 9th of October, 1867, will long be remembered among the Labrador fishermen. On that day an awful hurricane raged along the coast. The sea rose in many places fifty feet higher than it had ever been known to rise before. Cliffs that had stood th^Luffeting of the waves without percepinK* change for half a century, gave way before the furious rush of the watery battalions. Huge bowlders that a dozen men could not move, were hurjed from their beds, and carried far inland by the mighty swing of ocean. Blinding snow-drifts and showers of hail and rain accompanied the'tempest. In a few hours thirty fishing vessels were driven ashore or swallowed up in the boiling surges. Fifteen hundred h.uman beings were shipwrecked, and about forty of these meta watery grave, or perished by cold and hunger on the inhospitable coast. The product of months of hard toil wjis swept jiway, and the poor fishermen found. themselves flung.out shelterless upon the rocks, hundreds of miles from home.

One of the fishing vessels with a large number of men, women and children on board, was caught in the storm, and tried hard to ride out,the hurricane. After a few hours of fearful suspense,she dragged her anchors and was driven ashore. With great difficulty all on board were safely landed. Drendhed with rain, blinded by the snow-drifts, shivering in tlie cuttjng blasts they found themselves on an uninhabited partof the coast, the nearest liuts being neaiTy five miles dis tant. The gloomy toight.closed in as the last of them wsts dragged ashore from the wreck. Their only hope lajr in endeavoring to reach tlie distant huts and -in the darkness afad storm"*" they 'staggered on througli the trackless wilderness. Who.can picture the horrors of that night of suffering to this forloVn band! When the morning sun shope out nineteen of them lay dead along tlie shore. A group of three women and two children, claspcd in one another's arms and half buried,in mud, was foilnrd, aU stiff and stark

!ih

the icy enlbrace of death.

During the darkness tthd confusion of landing a family of four young children were separated from their parents, who sought for them in vain, and at length gave them up for loRt. A boy Of fourteen, hearing the cries 6( these poor little ones, tfhd finding they' had no guidie or pro* tector, resolved to do what he could to save their lives. To reach the huts with them being impossible, he made the shivering children lie down, locked in one another's arms, then he set to work resolutely, collecting moss, of which fortunately there was a large quantity about, and piling this around them, layer upon layer, he at length succeeded in excluding partiallycthe piercing cold. Fortunately, too, he found on the beach the fragment of an old sail, which he spread over all and collecting more moss, he increased the rude covering until the poor little sufferers ceased to cry with bitter cold, and declared themselves more comfortable. Through all the dreary hours of that awful night that heroic boy stood alone by these children, replacing their covering when the wind scattered it, and cheering them with words of hope. He might have tried to escape with the others, hut he.would not leave his helpless charge.. At length day dawned and then Le turned his tottering steps towards the settlement to seek for .aid. When about half way he met the parents Of the lost phildren, wild with grief, coming to search for their dead bodies, as they had no expectation of finding them alive. Tbe young hero quietly told them what he had done to save them, and by his directions they found the spot where they lay. On removing the cohering of mo6s, they, found the little preatures snug and wa^rni and in.a refreSbing pleep. What wordi? could picture the wild joy of father aiicl mother at that sight! But alas! oh their way back, near the Spot.where they had parted with hito, they found the noble Doy wh'o had saved their children's live3 at the expense of. his own, lying dead". Nature was exhausted, after thefatigue and exposure' of the night, ftnfl unable to reach the friendly shelter he sank down and expired.

THE NOBILITY OF THE DEED CWJRY. History has glorified the names of those who have sacrificed themselves on the altar of patriotism, or who risked and lost their lives in the cause of humanity. With moistened eyes we have" read of the British soldier who thrust the dispatch with which he had been intrusted into his wound, caring not if he thus invited death, if only he should prevent the important document from falling into the hands,. o{ the enemy. We have all read with beating heart the story of "the: noble boy" who "Stood on the burning deck,

Whence all but he had fled and preferred death in its most awful form to a desertion of the post of duty.— And-if we sympathize with the^e deeds of unselfish- heroism, shall w,e, n0t give the tribute of our admiration to this gallant little fisherboy of: Newfoundland?—-i Picture him in that nigbt of storm, on the savage shore of Labrad.or, with the hojvl of the tempest and the rpar of the broken surges in bis garg, as they dashed themselves to de&th on the r^cks and

sands, and, all alone, struggling to, save these lielpless children,—refusing to listen to the promptings fof self-preservation, and bravely giving up his young life on behalf of others. No prospect of fame or retvard sustained him througli the dreary hours of darkness. No eye but His to whom "the darkness and ljght are both alike" marked his heroism. It was a deed of pure, nnselfish love for the children whom: he saved had claims upon him of blbodor kindred. Even his name has not been preserved but the memory of his deed survives. And yrhen, aroandi the winter hearth, the fishermen tell of the awful hurricane of ,1867, they do not fail to repeat the story of the noble bor, at times fhe tears stealing dpwn their weather*beaten cheeks while in other lands, too, let the tale be told as a "memorial of him, and a means of inciting other young hearts to deeds of self-sac-rifice.

A MOTHER'S LOVE.

The forlorn survivors of that shipwreck dug a common grave on the bleak, coast, and with bitter, heart-wrung tears, laid in it the lifelesa forms of-wives and children, of brothers and friends. No coffin inclosed the dear remains no sheet shroud enveloped any form. Reverently the faces of t'ne dead were co^en-ed, ind earth given to earth. Then rocks were piled-above to keep off the prowling beasts of prey. This was the only me°' morial to mark their resting place. The young hero, whose tale I have told, waa laid with others in .his loneljr grave'. Close beside him, as a meet companion in deaih, they laid' another form—that of a young mother who was found dead' on the Bhore, with a living infant clinging to her bosom, and endeavoring tor draw nourishment from her breast—a sight that wrung tears from men that seldom wept. With a love stronger than death* the poor mother had stripped her--self of most of her clothing* wrapping it around her babe and then clasping it to her bosom $o as to shelter it from the blast, she sank into the death-stupor. In the morning the unconscious babe was found playing with the breast of its dead mother, and, looking up, smiled into the faces that were wet w^th tears at tK^ sight.

O, mighty power of, love! that often throbs most strongly in the bosom of the humblest—those whom we in our pride

pats by or despiser—prompting to deeds of heroism that show what wondrous possibilities of goodnes slumber unsuspected in the human heart! How poor looks mam~ a deed that has been sung by poet or applauded by admiring penei ations, when contrasted.with the self-sacrifice of this poor loving mother and nameless fisherboy! Dead mother! dead boy! sleeping side by side in this rude grave— how your deed of love brighten this scene of horrors, earrying our thoughts up to that Infinite Love who gave himself for o(ir poor "lost hunfanity, rebuking our cold selfishnees, and kindling the .spirit of •self-sacrifice. O, dread mystery of sorrow, pain and death! How ve confront ns on all sides, and shake our faith in the Divine Love. But with such examples of a self-sacrificing love that has been breathed into the soul of man from the source of all goodness, we will believe, notwithstending all appearances to the contrary, that the universe is rocked in the arms of everlasting love, and that "Every cloud I hat spreads above, and veileth love, itself is love."
