HENRY AND MATILDA, on THE CHILI) OF THE CASCADE. CHAPTER XI, AND LAST. Henry was in company with a number of bis fellow oHicers, who had assembled together to celebrate the glorious battle of Lakie Erie, when his servant put into his hand the letter from Matilda, which announced the request of his dying parent; and he hastily withdrew from the convivial board, to obtain permission to fulfil thai request. Thero was something in the ambiguous language of the letter that filled him with curiosity. 1 mystery was to be unfolded that would chill the blood of a warmer heart than his. What was it? he repeatedly thought to himself what mystery is this that will chill the crimson current of my veins; and again tho mysterious allusion to the infant Julia "she will be doubly dear to you," whr:t could ail this tuean? The child ot the cascade was thai dear to him; he had rescued it from a watery grave, when some inhuman fiend had supposed his work of death liniaiied. As tho preserver of its life, it was his; it wa3 entwined around his heart by bands of love and affection, as pure an 1 lasting as his existence; how then could it be. doubly dear to him? But his father was about to cbse his mortal career that father, for whose deeds of bla.-knes?, he had suffered the tortures of worse thin death; whoso un- . feeling eon luet ha 1 robbed him of every tenie r regard which a son could feel towards a par The attempt upon his life, and the violence to his Matilda, com 1 ing from the author of his being, seemed to :amp an impression upon his mind that nhnvt made Sum halo himself. Had it be ui ;ti v' o.i.i r earthlv mortal, his indig nant feelings could have been allayed, and vengeance taken its course; but he had to suppress his outraged feelings, though the tempest that rned w ithin him convulsed his frame to almost dissolution. It was therefore with melancholy thoi's that Henry left his regiment, and commenced his journey to tho residence of his father. It was 3 drecry night in September, when he reached the house, darkness clothed the face of nature in a sombre hue, and as he rode up to the door the stillness that reigned within, seemed like the g'comy silence which pervades the house of death. Suddes.ly the groins of his fa:!u r broke upon the stillness, and. he knocked at the door, and listening with iniense earnestness, ha soon heard a light tread stepping through the hHl, and as the "door opened, ho recognized Matilda Dutteri'cld. "Am Kin time, dear girl? has my father bis senses?" tenderly inquired Henry, folding Matilda in his arms. "His reason yet reigns triumphant thanks to heaven ou have arrived in time," replied Matilda, leading the way to the sick room of Gordon. Henry threw off his military coat and hat, as h.e entered the chamber of his patent, and with a firm, erect posture proceeded to the bed side, where Gordon lay in all the excruciating agonies of an approaching dissolution. His countenance, on which were pictured the paleness of death and the haggard appearance of a tortured mind, laboring in its seeming last convulsive throes, was wild, and his sunkhi eves rolled incessantly as if searching in vain for some object upon which to fix their ghts-y balls. As Henry came in view, ha started from his pillow, end stretched forth Ids arms, which, as Henry leaned forward, he folded around him, aiul Funk back, pressing his injured son t his K,mm. A moment elapsed ere he unclasped Henrv from his embrace; but tha' 1

tMit had sealed his forgiveness from

and the rnin- . L 1 -1 1 g.ed teats tlial oaitica eacu ouier f ciieens bore witness of the most powerful emotions that had swelled their hearts. That moment was an eternity of happiness to Henry his father was a penitent and was in nraver. Henry rose from I119 embrace, Ketoo O, now parent, exclaimed I he. and sunk back insensible to all around. Exhausted, he now lay with the cadave1 ... a rous hues of death stamped upon his emaciated countenance the last breath seem ed to have left his now motionless frame, and his spirit departed to the presence of its Judge. Matilda stood near, as Goidon sunk ex hausted upon his pillow, and like some ministeritifj angel was instantly by his side; and gently pushing Henry from the bed, she applied 60ra3 camphire and hartshorn. Peace be with thee, mv father," said Henry, gazing on the extended form of Ins parent. "Ho is not dead; he will revive soon, Henry," whimpered Matilda, bathing his tern pies. "Angel cf Deliverance! exclaimed Henry, taking her hand and pressing it to his heart, "Save him, if there is hopes, O save him: Matilda bathed the terapl of Gor don, while Henry staggered to a chair and gazed at her. The contending emotions that then shook Ids mnlv frame were in describable. That father whose unnatu ral conduct had destroyed his peace of mind, had at length acknowledged nis er rors humbly confessed them before his God. "Would that he might live for tne end Matilda," mentally exclaimed he, pressing his hand on his forehead, as he saw him begin to revive, Irom the restora tivo administered by Matilda. From this time Gordon gradually grew weaker. No medical aid could save him, and he sunk into the arms of death the third day after lleury's arrival. The morning previous to his dissolu tion he called Matilda and Henry to his bed-side, and atter tenderly committing to hi3 charge the care of his wife, who also was fast hastening to the tomb, he ioined their hands together, and m an at fectionate prayer besought tho Most High to protect and watch over them. After the funeral obsequies were paid to the remains of his father, Henry inlinedinrplv rprnrnri! fn his Quarters. That gloom which heretotoro pervaueu ius countenance, had vanished the calm ee- ... . 1 1 1. enitv of a mind at ease was portrayed in every feature, and he autieip3ttl that happiness which was in store for hira. Two or three week3 after ho received intelligence of the U3sh of hisjnottnV. in-law. She survived Gordon Uut a feAv days. He threw up, a3 soon as possible, his commission in the army, and returned to the residence of the ButterfiefJs. The communication, however, of his father respecting the infant Henry, made to Matilda, induced him to seek that unnatural parent in Canada, where he found him. He had been apprehended and convicted, together with one or two of his accomplices, and had been tried for his life, and sentenced to death. Henry visited him in prison; but the wretch, on being informed ihat he was the person who had so happily come to the assistance of the British officer, and mother, and daughter, was so enraged, that even though a condemned criminal, he threatened his life. He was informed by Henry of the situation of his child, but returned no answer. A few days after he was executed, l his body delivered for dissection. To deuict the iov of old Sarah and 1 Nicholas, on the return once more of their darling Henry es a resident in their hum ble mansion, language would tail, oaran "knew how it would be" she "knew he would one day or other find out the father of tho boy." V Henry will be a father to these children God has so miraculously left among us," said old Sarah to .Matilda, "and you, my dear daughter, will be as their mother, when Nicholas and myself are dead and gone." Matilda blushed deeply as she replied to her mother "Julia and Henry will ever find iu me afrieml; and, 1 trust,Jjji Henry a kind protector. The estate left by Henry's father was considerable, and that part which had been so recently occupied by him, he disposed of, and settled the whole of his affairs. He now turned his attention seriously towards Matilda, to whom a few weeks after he was united. He and the amiable partner of his bosom resided with Nicholas and the dame, until the following winter, when Nicholas, borne down by age, with its accumulated infirmities, was taken seriously ill, and after n fewdays' sickness, breathed his last, and was consigned to his kindred clay. The following spring the tido of emirrroiinn r tho western states became I ItllV tl v t w great, and Henry Gordon uisposeu 01 ms property, and with tho dame, Matilda and the two' children, moved to the west, locating on a tract of land which he had previously purchased. Here, embosomed in the western world, and retired from the dread scenes of war, and the bustling pursuits of a- less secluded life, in the "full enjoyment of health and happiness, Henry and Matilda had leisure to reflect upon the singular events that had marked their track of life, and to rejnicft together in the result cf an iKnlr triple.

From the IVt&tcm Visiter. A Sacramental Scene. 13 V JOHN NEW LA NO MAFFATT. The man of God read a hymn but be fore the voice of song kindled over it3 thrilling stanzas, he spoke of the origin of the sacramental institution then about to be celebrated. It was not once as it was now. Once, in a lonely chamber in Jerusalem, twelve sorrowful ones sat down to eat the first sacred 6upper. A cloud of glonm and agony was over them. and the bloody trials of another day seemed to be reaching back ward, and laying hold of their hearts, pained and bleeding with the prophetic augury. The Lamb of God, serene and tender and heavenly in the midst of this anticipated and alreaJy commencing woe, sits at the head of the

table, and in words that shall ring onxheKjcp forced to substitute some rhapsody of 1 1 1 r . .,. T t . 1 C .-. , !

Hastily passing by tho garden scene "Where in dark bowers, embosomed, Jesus flin;s His hand celestial o'er prophetic strings; Displays his purpb robe, his bosom gory, ilis crown of thorns, his cross, his future glory, And while the group, each hailuwed accent gleaning, On pilgrim staff, in pensive posture leaning Their reverend beards, that sweep their bosoms wet With the chill dues of shady Olivet Wonder and weep, they pour the song of sorrow, With their loved Lord, whose death fchall shroud the morow," the speaker rapidly sketched that wonder of wonders, the crucifixion, and all its nsmelers pangs; and alluded to that morn ing when Jesus pale, cold, unimpassioa ed. like those pure ones who come out of their cool graves on the resurrection day break burst open the chuly rock that had held in its silent chamber his body wrapped in the slumbers of death. Then the man of God spoke of the memorable time, alter the lapse ot lorty days, when Jesus stood on Mount Olivet, a Sabbith day's journey from Jerusalem, surround ed by Ins disciples, and talked to them of his separation. With what a mournful tenderness they each gave him their hand in a trembling farewell pressure. They tenderly asked htm, with the tears streaming down their pale cheeks "Lord. wilt thou at this time restore again Uic kingdom to Israel? We may well suppose how the eyes of these converts were fastened upon tne lace of their adorable Lord.

Gleams c brightness settles upon his radiant countenance; Ins tender smiles have -a ravishing sweetness which they trover aw before upon earth and they again fasten their eyes upon him, and their transported, ears drink in his voice of blessing. Uut lo! as he blesses them and sweetly says" am with yon ahcais, even un to tie end of the icorld" he treads on vacancy. Surprising appearances fill the heavens overhead. The clouds come down in snowy whiteness, edged wit.i gold. Celestial armies with their rosy wings, ha'f seen and then withdrawn, clus ter all the skies; and Jesus rises in that immortal pomp which dims the morning star and the early daylight which was then rollingover Bethany. He wentup with ten thousand billowy clouds around him, thick strewn with angel faces; and as he went it seemed to the gazing entranced disciples as if all heaven went w ith him. Iheir eyes were still fixed upwards. Their hands still reached out towards the heavenly vision which had now fled far out of their sight, and only now and then came back a gush of Song, the overflow ings of that celestial melody to whose throbbings the ascension car of ckrnds rose like a morning exhaltation. Two heaventy ones stoodjjy them insjiQUTjT

why stand ye gazing up into heaven: They may be supposed to have answered, "Our dear Lord has gone thither and we are now alone alone in an unfriendly world." Then said the angels, in the same grand clouds, on which has on ten thousand snowy thrones, he rolled into heaven, "He shall come again, and every eve shall see him." "Shall he come again?" cry the disciples; "it is enough, Lord, tve tvil noio return and tea it, m ardent vraxier and supplication, ihe ful filment cj thy last dear pledging promises.

The Degrading Habit of Swearinff. It is not easy to perceive what honor or

credit is connected with sweanng. Does anv man receive Dromotion because he is a notable blusterer? Or does any man ad vance to dignity because he is expert at profane swearing? No. Low must be the character which such impertinence will exalt; high must be the character which such impertinence will not degrade. Inexcusable, therefore, must be tho practice which has neither reason ncr passion to support it. The drunkard has his cups; the lecher, his mistress; the satirist, his revenge; the ambitious man, his prelerments; the miser, hi; gold: bv.t tha common swearer lias nothing; he is a fool at large; sells his soul for nought; and dntdges in tfi'j service oj tne aevu grunt. Swearing is void of all plea. It is not the native offspring of the soul, nor interwoven with the texture of the body, nor anyhow allied to our frame. For, as a great man (Tillotson) expresses it, 'though some men pour out oaths as if it were natural, yet no man was ever born of a swearing constitution Rut it is a custom, a low and paltry custom, picked up by low and paltry spirits, who have no sense of honor, no regard to decency; out nonsense to suppiy uie vacancy ui yuuu sense. Hence the silliness of the prac tice can only be equalled by the silliness of those that adopt it. Sermons hj the late Dr. David Lamont. The Two Mothers. I saw an unbelieving mother who had dared to cast away "her Bible, and to say, with the fool, "there is no God." It is not a frequent spectacle, and God in mercy grant it may never become so. She had an only child a playful babea daughter, the image of herself her pride and joy. It sickened; and for three weeks she scarcely permitted it to be taken from her arms. The God whom she denied had given her a mother's heart, though she knew not the source whence the blessing came. She wept her whole soul was in grief. She refused to be comforted. "O, my lovely Mary, dead, dead, dead! I shall never see her more. Born to die, born to blast my hopes. O death! cruel, death!" Such were her melancholy ravings. I saw a Christian mother, a confiding disciple of Jesus. Her only child was an interesting son in his sixth month. She had nourished it through great weakness, until it seemed to gather strength, and lich hope made her heart light. But suddenly it was cut down, and its little body, fair as alabaster, was laid in its coffin. The mother trusted in God that all was right. "My babe is happy," she said. "I shall meet it again in glory. It is not lost. Jesus said, "Suffer little children to come unto me anJ forbid them not." I will not forbid. Take it, Lord to thyself. I will submit without a murmur." This tmotbAr had that peace which the world rncitner give nor ia&e away. Thk Phenomenon. Jl Comet. We appearance of a strange light visible in the western horizon, just after twilight. H e perceive by the papers of Wilmington and Philadelphia that it has attracted considerable notice in those places, and all concur in the opinio. 1 that it is the tail cj a comet, making its circuit round the sun, and so near it as to preclude the nucleus or body of it from observation. In reference to its appearance on Monday night, the Pennsylvania Inquirer savs: "As soon as twilight had disappeared, a strong ray of light, from -i to G degrees in breadth, commenced from t'ie horuon at about o. S. ., and extended upward at an angle of nearly forty degrees, toward S. E. by E. Tho length of this beam of light was about forty degrees. Notwithstanding that the moon was binning, the beam was bright and well defined. Generally speakmg, it was wn.te, uui lotvaru tne uorizou, it assumed rather a dull red tinge, doubtless caused by the density of the atmosphere. It gradually sunk down in the west, the amde becoming more and more accute, until it disappeared finally at a little after eight o'clock. The nucleus or body of the comet (assuming the appearance described to have been the tail of such a luminary,) was at no time visible to the observers, the end of the beam of light being, even when first seen, below tne horizon. I his supposed tail of the comet appeared to sit in the west, exactly in tiie same manner as the sun, moon or any other heavenly "Of 504 comets that have entered the solar system, 24 have passed between Mercury and the Sun, 47 within Venus, 58 between Venus and the Earth, 73 be tween the Earth and Mars, and 3C2 be tween Mars and the orbit of Jupiter, and no casualty has occurred to primary or satellite. The comet of 1770 passed through the system of Jupiter without pro ducing the slightest effect; still many peo ple are alarmed at the appearauce ot these erntic bodies, these rail cars of the stellar regions, the mystery of whose olhce and destiny makes their astronomy of intense interest. "With reference to the danger of comets' striking the earth we here add, tliat the comet Encke, whose period is only 1237 days and nearest the earth of all the comets known, cannot come in .coilisoin short of a period of 210,0 )0,000 of years, which calculation is based on astronomical facts."
