BY WltUAM WHITFORE.
In the bleakest and most barren portion of the county of Derbyshire, England, there Uved, a long time ago, a man and his wife of the name of Pollard. The former waa the keeper of the turnpike gate, and ho had only been married some two or three months, when the circumstan¬ ces occurred of which we are about to write.^- The small toll house in which he lived was sit¬ uated at a point where three roads met, and in a place where the scenery was singularly wild and dreary. It stood in a deep hollow formed by two chains of high hills, whose aides wero cov¬ ered with nought but a continuous surface of dark brown heath, or occasional bushes of prick¬ ly goose. Not another house was to be seen for miles, and'the only evidence of life were in the few flocks of sheep which were here and there browsing along the mountain's sides; or the mail coach and a few wagons which at intervals pas¬ sing along the road. The only person who ever paid a visit to the toll-house was a butcher nam¬ ed Gonfrey, who called every Saturday, for the purpose of supplying the Pollards with fresh meats.
Mr. Pollard had lived in his present abode du¬ ring several years previous to his marriage; and being of a very courageous disposilion, and hav¬ ing been accustomed to the loneliness of his place of residence, he waa not much affected thereby; but his wife, who had ever been accustomed to living in a "populous town, and being withal of a very timid nature, now lived in a constant state of alarm and dread—more particularly whenev¬ er her husband paid a visit to the neighboring town for such necessaries as they required. And what tended to increase this feeling of alarm to a still greater extent, that part of the country was at that time infested by a band of lawless men, who almost nightly robbed and murdered some unfortunate cavalier, or broke into and plundered some lone farm-house; nor could the utmost vig¬ ilance of ..the authorities succeed in detecting them. Of these men she lived in daily dreadj lest they, discovering that her husband was pos¬ sessed of a large sum of money—the savings of former years—should seize an opportunity, when he was from home, and murder her to obtain it. She frequently pressed her husband to give up his station, and remove to some safer placo of abode; but he invariably laughed at her fears, assuring her that there was not the least danger, as none but themselves were aware of the fact of his possessing the money in question. Oneday in December he received a letter, informing him that his father was lying at the point of death, and earnestly wished to see him before that event took place- This letter gave him great uneasi¬ ness, for, apart from the grief it occasioned at his father's situation, if he went he could not possibly return beforo tho next day, as his pa¬ rents resided more than thirty miles distant, and his wife would be obliged to stay and take care of the 'gate.' He must go, however—he could not reluse his father*s dying request. When hc imparted his intention to his wife, she was seized with the utmost terror, and earneslly entreated him to forego his resolution; nor was it until af¬ ter a long time, during which ho had u.'ied tho utmost endeavors to soothe her, that he could venture to proceed on his journey.
It was Saturday morning when he started, and one of the dreariest days of the season. The snow lay thick upon the ground, and still contin¬ ued to fall heavily, causing the face of the sur¬ rounding scene to look more wild and lonely than ever. As Mrs. Pollard sat in the smnll front apartment of the house, her fears gradual¬ ly increased more and moro, as her imagination conjured up a thousand dread forebodings, and almost fancied that each sound of the wind whistling through the valley, was some one even now about to break in. Time sped, when at length, Gonfrey, the butclier, approached j the terror had attained to such a height that she de¬ termined to ask him to stay in the house with her until her husband returned.
This Gonfrey wag a tall, powerful built man, about forty-five or fifty years of age, and witii a rough countenace by no means prepossessing.— He resided in a houso, some five miles distant and which was at least that distance from any oth¬ er. He had occupied it for years, followed his preient business, and disposed of his meat by taking it in his wagon to the different families iu the vicinily.
She was unacquainted with him until the time of her marriage ; but the familiarity arising from his weekly visits to her house, and the cordiality wilh which her husband invariably received him, now inspired her wilh more confidence towards him, than from his looks sho would otherwise huve done.
*I am so glad you are come !' said Mrs. Pol¬ lard, as the  butcher  entered  her  dwelling.— 'John has gone to see his  father, who is not ex¬ pected to Uve, and will not relurn until to-mor¬ row; and I am  nearly frightened  to death, for we have got more than a hundred sovereigns in the house, and if any of theae robbers  were to com.e, they would murder mc.    Won't you stop and keep me company until John comes back V During the first part of her address,  Gonfrey did not appear to listen with much apparent  in¬ terest; but the momdht Mrs. Pollard mentioned the money, his face astumed an expression of singular import, and his grey eyes flashed quick glances from beneath his pert and shaggy brows, as though something had suddenly moved him. 'I am very sorry,' ho replied—and speaking in a low, deliberative tone—*but  I  cannot possibly 5tay—I've got to call at two or three more pla¬ ces with meat yet; and beforo I could return   it would bc past midnight.   But I tell you what I will do—there's Dash—a better dog never lived -:-I'll leave him with you; and I'll agree to for¬ feit my head if he lets any  one enter the house while he is there.'
With many thanks, Mrs. Pollard accepted his ofler; for she had often heard her husband speak of the courage and sagacity of the animal in question.
*Stay here,' said Gonfrey, now, as he looked at his dog, and pointed within lhe room with his finger,'and see that yoa don't let anyone come near.*
The dog, which was a very large one, one of -thebreed called *mastifr," answered this com¬ mand of his master by wagging his tail two or three times, and looking up into his face with an inlelligent expression; and the next moment crouching down by the side of Mrs. Pollard, stretched himself at full length upon the earth, u though at home.
When the butcher had departed, Mrs. Pollard began to caress the dog, and for a long time en¬ deavoring to attract his attention ; but in vain • he continued to Jie mute and motionless, aii though devoid of life. This circumstance raised her fears anew; for she began to think that if he dog lay thus passive now, he would do so if
any one chanced to come to the place. Again she renewed her caresses, and finally offered him a piece of meat; but still with the same success; the dog would neither appear to recognize hor presence, nor would he touch the meat.
Thc loll houso consisted of two rooms, with only one door or entrance, and which was at the front. The back apartment was used as a bod-room, and was lighted by a small wmdow at the foot of tho bed. The front one had two windows; a tolerably large one near the door, and a small lattice, whose diamond shaped squares of glass were encased within thin plates of lead. To none of the windows were there any shutters, with thc exception of the bed room.
At the usual time Mrs. Pollard retired to rest, but in vain endeavored to sleep; the dog still re¬ maining in tha same immovable position as when his master left him.
The night was moro chilly and dreary than had been the day. The falling of snow had giv¬ en place to a heavy storm of commingled sleet and rain, which the wind now blow against the casements with terrible force—almost appearing as though it would raise the house from its very foundation. Il seemed a fitting nighl for deeds of blood ! Mrs. Pollard iaid in her bed tremb¬ ling, as her terror at each repetition of the keen blast increased. Stories of robbery and blood¬ shed, which sho had hoard years ago, now rush¬ ed through her mind with vivid distinctness ;— and her imagination increased their enormity a thousand fold.
She lay thus, unable to sleep, until, as near as she could guess,about midnight,when she thought she heard the sound of a single footstep outside tho house. She partially raised herself, and bending forward listened for a continuance of the sound wilh eager intentness. Sho soon hoard the step again, and this timo distinctly. They now appeared to be quite hear. She now listen¬ ed for the dog's raising some alarm-—but not the slighiesi movertient did hc make. Her lerror suddenly''raised  to a great exlent, at the  ani-
down agin Sunday morning, got there about half past ten, and found her as dead as a herrin. I was mightily struck up. We skinned her, and snaked her out upon the snow. I then cut her open and examined her. She had what I call the overflow of the gall. I found a bushel bas¬ ket full of fox grass hay, and nothin' else, in her entrails. I found a peck more in tho manifold, all matted down and dried on. My neighbors use this kind of hay. It will do for young crit¬ ters that browse but I never seo any living crit¬ ter touch it growing. Even grasshoppers will run from it for life. I took some spirits down with me, Sunday morning. The cow having no furiher use for any, I took a dose myself,'
The plaintiff" lives in South Boston, and the de¬ fendant in Scituate, where this kind of grass grows. The doctor's testimony was quito liko that on the former trial, except that the learned cow doctor had more to say of the 'ground-work,' of his examination and his theory. At the last accounts the jury had gone out to grass, to con¬ sider the digesiive and medical properties of fox grass, a bundle of which was laken wilh them to their jury-room.

The jury after being out for some hours, disa¬ greed ; they stood 10 for defendant, and 2 for plaintiff.—Boston Herald,
Catcliin^ a fVeascl Asleep.
An individual, as well' known around —
mal's not takipg notice of the noise outside.-— Another ynoment, and she heard a sound as of some one removing the glass out of the small casement in the olher room, immediately follow¬ ed by the sharp click of the handle, which fast¬ ened it on the inside, turning round. Still, the dog gave forlh no sound or indicalion of what was going on.
Mr«. Pollard was now almost frantic with ex¬ cess of fear, feeling assured that she must un¬ doubtedly in a few moments be murdered. The perspiration streamed from her in large, cold drops, and her tongue seemed powerless to ut¬ ter a single cry.
As we said, the dog had as yet given forth no sign of recognition; but when, a moment after the noise of the handle's turning round was heard some one seemed lo bs forcing through the aper¬ ture, he gave a low growl followed by a sudden spring. A shrill cry of agony immediately echo¬ ed through the house, so keen and slarlling as almost to chill the blood in Mrs. Pollard's veins. The cry was followed by tho sound of fierce struggling, mingled with sharp cries, which each moment grew weaker and weaker, as of a hu¬ man being in the very extremest of mortal pain and anguish; and the deep mouthed baying of the dog-. At length the struggle ceased, und all became still as death.
When daylight appeared Mrs. Pollard rose and dressed, with as much speed as the weak¬ ness the terrors of thc night had occasioned would permit. She then set down by the win¬ dow, to await the appearance of the first person who niight pass, for she could not summon suf¬ ficient courage to enter the other room alone.— In a short timo a teamster approached, whom she hailed; and as soon as he had stepped near to where she was seated, lold the story of ilie I)revious adventure.
He instantly ran round to the side on. which was the lattice casemenl, and the next moment returned, with horror depicted on his counte¬ nance, as he exclaimed—'My God, what a sight I have seen.' He then got in by tho open win¬ dow at which Mrs. Pollard had been seated, and led thc way to the other room.
And what an object was then presented to their view ? Hanging on the sdl of the case ment with the head and shoulders protruding through inlo thc interior, was the body of Gon¬ frey the bulcher ! In tho right hand he held a large knife, the blade of which was covered with blood ; for he had stabbed the dog several limes during the struggle. And fierce that struggle must have been, for in his lefl hand was a quan¬ tity of hair, which he had torn from the neck of the dog. Tho latter, at thc momenl when they entered the room, was sitting erect on his haun¬ ches beneath the place where his master was hanging, gazing wilh a fixed look upon him ; and the blood was still flowing from the stabs he had received.
Gonfrey had formed the resolution of robbing and murdering Mrs. Pollard, and had left his dog with her as a menns of cfTectually warding off all suspicion from attaching to himself, never for a single moment doubting but that his dog would permit him to enter the house unmolested. The faithfulness and intelligence of tho animal was thus the instrument of punishment on his master, for the enormity of the crime he had in¬ tended to commit. The teamster dressed the wounds of Dash and then pursued his journey. Nor did Mrs. Pollard now feel any further fear of staying alone, until the return of her husband after such a proof of the sagacity of her brute protector. Dash recovered from his wounds, and was ever after kept with as much care as though he had been their child, nor could any amount of money which might have been offered for his possession, havo tempted them to part with him.
you've brought in this coniamed saw-hoss worth twenty, eh? you natral fool!' And uncle C, fairly shook with rage,
* I baulked on that, capting,' observed Seth, in self-justification; * but that 'ar tonguey cuss, Jake, thar, talked into old Bill, (the third judge,) as how a saw hoss was equal to a twenty dollar bill, and so I was overruled.' ¦
* Consarn the critters,' growled uncle C;' wall, it can't be helped Sam ; you've got into mo fair this time ; but won't you let me off", though ?'
' Eff you'll sland treat all round, uncle—jest to obleage you,' quickly answered the mischiev¬ ous wag.
Uncle C. did treat all round, and does it again when reminded of the trade.—N. O. Crescent,

BENEVOliENCE.
AinuNing CoTv Case in tlie €oui*t of Inquiry, on FriOay.
The case of James A. Maynard vs. Cummings Litchfield lo recover the value of a cow was tried again. Tho plaintiff alleges that the defendant, on flie 14th of Dec, 1816, contracted to keep his cow during the winter in as good flesh as wHen he took her, and that she died for want of suita¬ ble food and water. That the cow was of En¬ glish breed, worth $70, and that a post mortem examination was held upon her mortal remains, when some salt hay, called fox-grass, was found in her, which produced an overflow of gall and stoppage.    This defendant denies.
At the former trial the jury stood 6 to 6, and did not agree, though no less than four cow doc¬ tors gave evidence ; the teslimony of one of them. Dr. Stoddart's, is decidedly rich. It was as fol¬ lows:
' I live in Scituate, and am sixty years of age. I am a cow doclor, I have followed the busi¬ ness these forly years. I 'doctor sheep, hoga, and horned critters. I set broken bones, joints, &c. I never read no books on critters. I look the business up kind of nat'ral. I doclor in Scit¬ uate, Hanover, Hanson, and all about. Mr. Maynard and Mr, Litchfield came to me about this cow. I told them to give her a pint and a half of castor ile, or a pound of hog's lard. I went down to see her the day afore she died. I gave her a dose of thoroughstalk tea, strong. I went to sea her agin on Saturday, and dosed her agin. 1 thought if I could start her idees up a little, and kind of jog natur, she might get along She revived up a little, and I left her.    I went
as the guide-board at the cross roads, youi A B C's at school, or the church steeple, onco toted into the village inn on one of his customary horse-trading errands. Old C. was a ^hoss,' if not a 'half al/igator,' in all kind of matters hav¬ ing the slightest affinity to horse-flesh. He could see through a beast as well as you can through the bars of a gridiron. ' 'Veni, vtdi,* was his motto; and ho decided just as quickly as a wink could be made, or the fire from the limesione some where scorched a feather. He never would allow the chance of a trade to slip through his fingers iike a greased pig, but would jump at ono as readily as trout will at a fly. I solemnly aver that had he, by some providence or other, happened to live in the days of Alexander, hewould have attempted to ' cum it over ' that great' b'hoy,' and swopped him a miserable creature for his Bucephalus— ditto, had it been his fortune to fall in wilh Don Quixote, ten to one he would have ' struck a trade' with the valiant knight,and obtained the far-famed Rosinante as an equivalent for some 'bishoped* affair. In fine, reader, C.'s fame was as renowned as his white neckcloth, a la parson, and other clerical eccentricities, were well known for miles around	
Very well: C.—we were saying—once toted into the village tavern. A stranger, at his ap¬ pearance, might have mistaken him for a fallen deacon, or an itinerant temperanco lecturer, bearding the 'crater' in it's den: he looked a little liko both, only more like the former than t'other by reason of a well-dyed noso, and other marks which king 'cohol is apt to leave, as me¬ mentoes of his favor, upon the features of his proselytes.
'Who wants to trade to-day ?' he exclaimed, emptying the tumbler of ' sling,' whicJi the atten¬ tive Boniface knew was dc regie wilh C, and had consequently concocted on his entrance.-— * Got an all-fired putty hoss tew hum,' he con¬ tinued, 'fresh from 'Hjo—slicV na a. now doll«» smart as young lightnin* arter a spankin'—and will trot it like abuUgine down a greased sun¬ stroke.'
' Considerable kind of a critter, I should ex¬ pect,' remarked one of the would-be bloods of the village, calmly whiffing his long nine, and a smile of incredulity creeping quietly over his sharp .wag-like countenance-
• He's nothin' else, Sam,* assured the old man, seating himself beside the * young 'un,' and pro¬ ducing a jack-knife, which had assisted him in the perfection of scores of trades.
'Well, uncle C.,' drawled out Sam, 'seein' you're sorter anxious to trade, 'sposin' wc talk it over a leetle; for I've got a hoss I jest got, I should like mighty well to swop off.*
• That's the talk, Sam,' exclaimed C., rubbing his hands with delight, for he M'as about plunging in his element. 'What sort of a critter U he, SamV
* Nothin' very alarmin', I guess, uncle C.; but sound as a dime, though,'
' Considerable old, I reckon,' says uncle C, ' Not very ; and what mought be yourn's age, uncle C,?'
' Four, comin' five next grass, Sam. An all- killing flne colt, Sam, effi say it.'
* I ain't seen him, uncle C, and you ain't seen mine, as I know on : now let's do the thing up in short metre. What d'ye say to swoppin* with¬ out seeing, uncle 1'
' Don't care a hoe cake, Sam—soon ^ade blind¬ folded as not—no use my bein' with' eyes wide open, 'kase you'd cheat me of my eye teeth eff so be I had all the specs in crealion to help me.'
'Sho ! uncle C, you're poking fun inlo me, when you say that—me, green as thunder, think to take advaniage on you ?' And he laughed at the idea.
' Well, Sam, that's for talk's sake. Shall we leave it out to judges, Sam V
' Jest as you mind to have it, uncle C
» Who d'ye take, Sam ?—I take Seth, cause Seth's honorable,' and he called up a tricky look¬ ing soap-lock, who' was known as uncle C.'s sianding referee.
' Wall, Jake,' and Sam winked to a roguish fellow, and whispered a word or two in his ear.
The referees chose the third judge, a very simple-minded individual; and all were about leaving for the respective domiciles of the tra¬ ders, where the horses were said to be, when Jake remarked :
* I 'spose we've got lo bring in our award, whatsomever's the bosses we're going to see.'
* Sartain, Jake, sartin,* simultaneously replied the two jockeys.
The trio were absent about twenty minutes, 'and slaled that the result of their ' chating ' was that Sam should pay undo C. fifteen dollars to boot. The hat was held out, and both dropped in a cent in token of their satisfaction with the decision. Sam produced his sheep's skm, pointed up the rhino, saying as uncle C. counted the cash :
* All right, I expect, capting ?' ' I guess so,Sam,* replied the venerable jockey.
* Now let's go any deliver iheproperly.'
An inkling of tho probable result of the affair had got rumored about the room, and the specta¬ tors followed tho traders to enjoy the finale.
' Let's go to my place first,' said Sam, and thither they went, whilst uncle C. directed Seth to run to his stable and lead out his hoss.
\Vc copy thc following from the Boston Po.st.— " Absalom Bliss" is tho tj-po of quite a numerous class, and many will have no difficulty in recognizing similar IVatures in thc characteristics of some of their friends.
A benevolent man was Absalom Bliss— At each and every talc of distress
Mo blazed right up like a rocket; He felt for all hencath poverty's smart, Who were fated to bear life's roughest part- lie felt for thom in his inmost heart.
But never felt in his pocket.

For charity's donation j Bnt hc acted n.s ifhe thought railroad stocks And bouils, secure beneath earthly locks. Were better, with pockets brim full of rocks.
Than Heavenly speculation.
Vet all said he was an excellent mnn ¦
To thc poor he'd i)rcach—ibr thc poor he'd plan ;
To better them ho was willing ; But tho oldest man, who had heard him pray •  And preach for thc poor in a pitiful way. Could hardly remember him rightly to say
Mr. Bliss had e'er given a shilling.
RESIGNATION.
BY IIEXRY W, LOXGI-ELLOW.
There is no flock, however watched and tended.
Bat one dead lamb is there ! There ia no fireside, howso'er defended.
But h:is one vacant chair !
Thc air is full of farewells to the dying.
And mournings for the dead ; Tbe heart of Knchacl for her ehildren crying,
Will not bc comforted!
Let us bo patieut! these severe afflictions Not from thc ground arise, v
But oftentimes celestial benedictions Assume this dark di.sguiso.
Wc see but dimly through the mists and vapors;
Amid these earthly damps, What scoin to us but dim, funereal tapcr-s
May be hoaveu's distant lamps.
There is no death ! what seems .so is transition.
This life of mortal breath Is bnt a .'iuhurb of the life Elysian,
Whoso portal wc call Death.
She U not dead—thc child of our affection—
Hut gone unto that school, Where she no longer needs our poor protection.
And Christ himself doth rule.

A pang shot through the inebriate's heart.— " I have robbed them of the comforts of life,', he exclaimed : " from this moment the liquid fire passes my lipa no more."
Anne stood gazing at him in astonishment.— Slie could scarcely comprehend her father's words; but she saw that some change had taken place. Sho threw back her golden ringletsi rai¬ sed ber large blue eyes with an earnest look to his face—" Will you never drink any more rum?" she whispered timidly.
" A''ever.' dear Anne," her father replied sol¬ emnly.
Joy danced in her eyes. "Then wc will all bo 80 happy. Oh, father, what a happy home ours will be!"
Years passed away. The worda of little Anne, tlie drunkard's daughter, had proved true. Thg home of the reformed man, her father, was in¬ deed a happy one. Plenty crowned his board, and health and joy beamed from the face of his wife and children—where once squallid misery alone could be traced. The pledge had raised him from his degradation, and restored him once more to peace and happiness.

By guiirilian angels led, ^afe from tcmjifation, s.afc from sin's pollution
Shc lives, whom we call dead,

In those bright realms of air; Vear after year, her tender stojis pursuing.
Behold her grown more fair.

Not as a child would 1VC again behold her;
t'or when with rajituro wild In our embraces we ngain enfold her,
Sho will not be a child ;
Jint a fair maiden in her Father's mansiini.
Clothed with celestial graco ; And beautiful with nil the soul's expansion
Shall we behold her face.
And though at times, tempestuous with emotion
And anguish long siippres-^ed. The swelling heart heaves moaning liko the ocean.

"He will forgive you, Fatlier."
He stood leaning upon a broken g.ate in front of his miserable d"wclling. His tattered hat was in hia hands and tbe cool breeze lifted the matted locks which covered his noble brow. His coun¬ tenance was bloated and disfigured, but in his eye there was an unwonted look—a mingled ex¬ pression of sadness and regret. Perhaps he was listening to the melancholy voice of his patient wife ns she soothed the sick babe on her bosom; or perchance he wos gazing on tlie sweet face of his eldest daughter, as at the open window she plied her needle to olitain for her mother and the poor children a sustenance. Poor Mary! for licrself slic cared not; young as slie was,her spirit was crushed by poverty, unkindness and neglect. As tlie inebriate tlius stood, his eyes w.tndered over his miser.able habitation hefore him. Thc windows were broken, and tlie doors hingclcss, scarce a vestige of comfort remained; yet mcniory bore bim back to the days of his youth, when it was the abode of peace and hap¬ piness. In infancy he saw again the old arm chair where sat liis fatlier with tlie Bible upon his knee, and seemed to Iicar again thc aweet tones of his mother as shc laid her hand upon thc head of her darling boy, and pr.ayeJ that God would bless him and preserve liim from evil. Long years had passed away,yet tears came into tho eyes of the drunkard nt the recollection of his mother's love.
" Poor mother," lie muttered, " it is well that thou art sleeping in tbe grave; it would break thy heart to know that tliy son is a wretched and degraded being—a miserable outcast from society."
He turned slowly away. Deep within an ad¬ joining forest was a dcU where the beams ofthe sun scarce ever penetrated. Tall trees grew on either side, whose branches, meeting above, formed a canopy of leaves, where the birds built their nests, and poured forth happy songs.— Tliither the drunkard bent his steps. It had been llis favorite haunt in thc days of his child¬ hood, and as he threw himself upon the soft, green sward, tho recollections of past scenes came crowding over his mind. He covered his face "With his hands, and the prayer of the prod¬ igal burst from his lips—" Oh God! receive a returning wanderer!" Suddenly a aoft arm was thrown arout his neck, .and a sweet voice murmured—" Ho will forgive you, father."— Starting to his feet, the inebriate saw standing before him his youngest daughter, a child of six years.
" Why are you here, Anne.'" he said, asham¬ ed that tlie innocent child should have witnessed Ilis grief.
" I came to gather the lilies which grow upon tliebanks," shc replied; " see, I have got my basket full, and now I .am going to sell, them."
" And what do you do with the money.'" ask¬ ed the father, as he turned his eyes to the bas¬ ket, where among the broad green leaves the sweet lilies of the valley were peeping forth.
Tbe child hesitated, she thought she had said too much; perliaps her father would demand the money, and spend it in the way in whioh all his earnings went.
" You are afraid to tell mc, Anne," said her father, kindly.   " WeU, I do not "blame you; I have no right to my children's confidence." The gentleness of tone touched  the heart of
