Tue casements shook, bricks were heard clattering to the earth, and the thunder of the surf on the iron-bound coast shook the whole house. Dark clouds almost entirely obscured the firmament, though the moon occasionally broke through for a moment, throwing a ghastly light on the white breakers, m l on the square tower of the former, but now ruined, castle, which stood like a sullen sentinel, keeping watch on a rock that directly overhung the deep. "What a hurricane it has been." said
the young Lord. "God help the sailors, j struggling seaward. Now the light toy, if there are any to-night on this lee shore! for it seem.-d no more comparatively, J5ut hark! what was that?"

was a comparatively sheltered spot, embayed between the high headlands, on oik itf which Craigha'me castle stood:

"Xot yd, my lor I," was tlie answer, 1 ter, a lort'-lo j s 1 1 1 scaooutr '.1 da i.'eu n i th very act ol strikiu,; on a leilii of r c'is ; kuoxvnu loll, tK. wiH co,lSl, for their la-! 1 3 ... r n .1 r- 1 lal cliirdtTter, as the Lr.igs of Ueatli.

Oh! would that there j were more such instances, where men. differing in faiths, unite iu doiug Goa's work of mercy and succor. The blessing over, the volunteers look their seals; the oars fell; and the boat shot out into the raging sea. The moon had now reappeared, and the schooner was distinctly visible on the rocks, tho' bath masts were gone, and the waves were boiiing around her at such a rate, that the fishermen expecteJ momentarily m see her 0 to pieces. With intense 1 anxiety they watched the boat slowly j j as gigantic as even the enormous billows which had preceded it, was seen coming down toward the frail boat, mounting higher, and higher, and higher above it. as if first to overtop. and then bury the venturesome adventurers; but, at such tim?3, it fairly made the spectators cheer,

to see how steadily the crew pulled, and with what eye and nerve the young lord steered up the wall, as it were-, of waters Suddenly, as the anxious crowd gazed, the crest of the wave was reached, the boat hung suspended for a second, her stern high in air; and then with a rush, as if an abyss had opened bifore her. down she went, disappearing from sight. How every breath held, after that, till she emerged again to sight; breasting anew wave, but only to vanish again, on sur-l mounting it. and bring back a return 01 suspense. For half au haur nearly, the excited group at the landing waited the enl of this heroic strife, often losing sight entirely of the boat when the moon became obscured. Torches had, meantime, been brought, j and their lurid glare, lighting up the black rocks, the foaming surf, the bits of j wreck coming ashore, and the grim tower iu the back-ground, made the scene pic-' turesqui even to horror. A ided to thisj was the unceasing raar of the breakeis. , like ten thousand batteries, and the howl of the gale, which sometimes rose even above this tremendous thunder. "Gad help him. God have pity 0.1 thorn," said the priest, unconsciously giving expression to his thoughts,"I can't see them any mare, they mast be lost." Tile moon ha j, that instant, coin-i forth agiin; and, as the priest said. 110 boat was in sight. Eat one of the fishermen, celebrated for his keen sight, hastened to say that, just as the moon emerged, he j thought he lud seen th-5 bait disappear j behind the Crags of Death. "I'm not certain. For I siw it, If I saw it all, like ths flash of a sea-bird's wing, low on the horizon, gone iu a moment. Eat there's this iu its favor. They'll have to go round the Crags, and lie under their lee, to get at the wreck at all. If tha crew of the schooner have managed to get to the rock, Craigholme wiii briiiü 'em back, tint is if he hasn't gone down. All we can do is to wait for j the next half hour, and pray the Lord to j have mercy on 'em all." " j at how long that hilf hour seemed! Ofien the old priest looked at his Walch, to be assured that the specified time lud not expired, and thus to recall the Mope that lud almost died out. At last the full p.Tiod had passed. Still no bait appeared. Five minutes, ten minutes elapsed, and now the most sanguine began to despair. The wreck, within the last few moments, had gone bodily to pieces, and the waters were churning white over the spot where it had sank. Even the Crags, though not) et quite covered with the ris'1112 tide, were hidden from view by the driving spray Hut hung continually, like a thick mist, above them. "Tliev are lost." said the priest at last, in a broken voice, "they would have' saved, ns well as they who were in peril first. God have mercy on their souls." And tears chased each other down his aged checks. But, at that instant, the ken-sighted j fisherman, who had never taken his eyes from the spot where the boat had disappeared, broke forth rapturously, "I see them, I see them, the boat is full, they are coming back, hurrah, hurrah!" And he too, overcome, though in a different way, shed tears, waving his cap frantically around his head. ISvcry eye was fixed immediately on the spot to which he pointed. The clouds were now dissipating, and the moon shone with uudimmed splendo', so that even those with the weakest sight could discern the boat. On she came, her bow painted directly toward the landing, riding the surges as buoyantly as a wildduck itself. As she drew nearer, a white dress was seen among the crowded freight, proving that one female at least had been saved; and, on beholding this, the prayers of the spectators, and their anxiety, for the safe return of the adventurers, grew, if possible, more ardent than ever. Oh! how intensely the little crowd watched the struggle, which, for nearly half an hour, the light craft maintained against the angry billows, which waved around it, as if determined not to be cheated of their prey. At last the boat shot into the comparatively smooth space in front of the landing; 211 1 the moment after, was disembarking her living freight. Two females were borne ashore, one in the arms ol Craigholme himself, the other by a military-looking man, with grey hair, but still in the. nrime of his strength. "Hun to the castle, for life and death," were the young lord's words, "and have chambers prepared for thse ladies. My good father," he added quickly, in a whisper, as he caught the eye of the priest, "only think of God's mercy, in instigating me to go out to that wreck. The schooner was a yacht, lent to my Lord Mountjoy, to bring him home, which induced him to change his plan of returning by the Rhine. They would have been lost. Edith and all. if I had not cone out. See that my lord and lady, the last of whom like Edith is senselesss almost from exhaustion, are brought up to the. castle; and have Dr. Morgan sent for immediately."

As he spuke these words, Craigholme had hurried on, the priest following by his side, and the fair burden in his arms lying so still that he might have thought her dead, but for the almost imperceptible pressure, with which, from time lo time, she clasped his neck. He knew that the castle was the nearest place where any comforts could be found for the drenched and almost dead females and therefore he was hurrying forward, without pause to that destination, the emeigencyof the case aiviiiß him strength to i n,rrv i), T -i i- v 1 1 1 h ifc!, h-J ufn carry the Lady Llith a, if she had been . but a child The Other rescued persons j foWed after, or were borne along b . eager volunteers; while four or five of the lleetest villagers darted onward to announce tlitrir approach.

There were tears in her eves as she spoke, which her young bridegroom kissed tenderly away, saying, "God strengthen us both, my love, always, and under all temptations, to do our duty, for therein lies the path to true happiness." Til E I R isll MÄN"Ä N 1) fii e" PARSON An Irishman listening very attentively to an eloquent sermon, in which the minister expatiated largely on the character of the righteous; and that such persons would be raised again at the resurrection vo enjoy imw 111c om; ma. iiuiuuani, 1 Isaac and Jacob of old were such person s, and all who had such faith, uprightnts piety, &.c. Iu conclusion he very ably set forth the importance of sustaining the ministry; and that he who giveth thus to the Lard, shall receive a four fold reward, &c. Teddy concluded that with such generous proffers, he would give his only cow lo support the ministry. His wife re niaiistrated, yet Teddy was confident thai 'it would come to pass as the good man said that he would get a four fold reward.' Accordingly the cow was driven to the parsonage and very thankfully received by the minister. In a short time the cow escaped from the pasture, and returned to her former home with four of the parson's fat bullock's in her train. The providential occurrence so overjoyed ihe Irishman that he hastened to tell the tidings to his wife, siying that it had come to pass ju?t as the good man had said; that we would recave four fold reward.' In the midst of his joy, a butcher in search of fat cattle came up a bargain was made for the four bullocks. TedJy, with the cash in hand, hastened across the country to his creditor to make the last payment on his farm obtained a full tille to the same returned home blessing the good man who had "prached such a true sarmint." &c. Shortly after this, the parson in search of his cattle, called on TedJy to learn something of their whereabouts. Teddy frankly told the whole affair, at the same time showing the title to his little farm, and that it had "turned out just a you said that we would recave a four fold reward." "But" said the parson, "I did not mean temporal blessings, only spiritual blessiugs." "Ay!" said Teddy, "vou did not say so in yer sarmint; you said noihing at all, at all about spiritual bh-ssins." Well, said the parson, after much ar gument, "I am willing to leave the affair lo any three honest, judicious christian men, and whatever they may say concerning the matter, I will abide; and you may select the men yourself," Well, said Teddy, 'In yer sarmint you tould us that Abrain, Isaac and Jacob were jist sich men, aud 1 am willin to lave it to them.' P. They are dead, and have been for many years. T. O, well you said that they would rise again! 2 JSo they will, but not till the resurrection at the last day. T. Ay, indade well then I am content to wait till that day. The parson finding that he was completely cornered, left, determined that in future he would be careful to show the differeuc-i between temporal and spiritual blessiugs. rr"r"The charge of admission to the I World's Fair has been fixed at 50 cents.

W e do not allude to j annual State and county industrial fairs, as these are not attended with great ex- j pense to exhibitors, and rather serve to fit them for successful competition among the nations; we only allude to very expensive fairs like the New York Crystal Palace, which we consider any thing but honorable to our country, as it blocks up the pathway to a future World's Fair in America, one worthy of its greatness, and the genius a.d skill of its enterprising people. Let us look calmly at the case as it stands, and see if we have not good reasons, as lovers of our country, fur feeling deeply on this subject. The New York Crystal Palace is the propejty ot a Joint Stork Company composed of merchants, lawyers, and j Rtnck-iohber3. It was protected bv the ! American Commissioner to the orld s ' J A. Fair of 1S51. aud was designed for money making objects; in fact, the project has been looked upon as such an excellent speculation for paying good dividends, that the stock has been running up and down from par to seventy per cent above it. It has been represented abroad as a World's Fair a national exhibition, instead of the fair of a mercantile company, in order to make it highly successful, hence the Queen of England has appointed a Royal Commissioner lo represent her Court in the person of the Earl of Ellesmere, who has come lo our shores in a fine frigate appointed for that purpose, and will, a brilliant staff of joint Commissioners consisting of Charles Lyell Bart, and Professors Wilson, Düke, Wallis, and Whitworth &U distinguished men in the pursuits of science. These men v. ere no doubt appointed with a perfect understanding that they were coming to a World's Fair under national patronage instead of the Crystal Palace of a mercantile company. They no doubt expected to find it a fair worthy of the spirit of our people, one that would be a faithful index of our country's geuius and power; but instead of finding a magnificent and large structure corresponding in dimensions with our great population .... f twenty six millions they nave louni only an unfinished but neatly designed building, placed so unfavorably that it is dwarfed by a neighboring water reservoir, and surrounded with dust, dirt and groggeries. We hope that when the exhibition opens, a favorable' impression will be made upon these distinguished foreigners who have come here to view the handiworks of our people. At present things cannot but make a must unfavorable impression upon them but neither our government nor our people are responsible for any disappointment in their expectations. Scientific American.

A young ana lovely woman was called upon to mourn the death of her lord. As she loved him in life with all the fervor of adoration, her grief at his decease was violent and inconsolable. She filled the air with plaints; declared herself the most ,vretc!ied of women: and in the insanity Gf jlrr great grief made a vow she should wej u0 ,,ew iorj Ulltil the stream which ra i,.. ,P Wver should reverse its .AUlAwrv ' w - - - - course.

A lady on the death of her husband vowed that she would not marry snother till the grave oT her first loved, perennially moistened by her own and the tears of heaven, should have become dry.
