Tho follow ag lines were suggested by the pa thetic circumstances attending tuo death of a youth lu Salem, Oregon, Matter Vroom who was sud denly stricken down by tho accidental discharge, of ! gun. While In tho last throw of death he iald: " Let me lay my head In mother's lap," Let me rest my head, mother. On thy lap awhile. For I would hate you look once more Upon your djlng child. Kre the darkening shadows ltklo thco from my sight, I would rest my weary head In thy lap to night. Last rrentug as I lay, mother , In a pleasant dream, Tho nngels gathered round me llow happy thoy did seem ; And, oh I such hca enly music , As floated through tho room, Mother, I pracd that I might dwell With them In their home. My teachers w ell descned my loro, And alt my schoolmates, too, Hat j on, dear mother, more than all II.ito been the one most true ; But I must bid them all farctull To Heat en I go from thee, To dwell terctcr In that home Oh ! w eep not then ror me. Farewell, farewell, dear father, And you, too, sister dear Oh, mine has been a happy life Of Joy and sunshine here ; Dut now the angels call mo From sin and sorrow free Trust on, dear mother I'll go and wait for thee. Hark I listen to the nurds, Their songs alluro mo on, Then, mother, do not bid mo stay Away from that bright home : But you will often seek tho spot And kneel beside my tomb, And pray that wo may meet again Ileyond this world of gloom. Then, mother, let mo rest my head Upon your lap awhile, For I would have yon look oaco moro Upon your dying child ; Bro the darkening shadows Hide thco from my sight, Mother, I would rest my head Upon your lap to-night. "Tin: Twin Doltoiw,1' Is tho firm nnino of ti couplo of tho most graceless nnil inhumim si'tunns Unit over linjKWtl upon poor, credulous humanity. According to a report uindo to tho Detroit Freo Press, two nionsters.stylingtlioniselveaiianbovo hrtvo been traveling in Macomb county, Michigan, practicing tho so called healing itrt In tho most atro cious manner. In one instance they attempted to .straighten tho leg of n boy which had been drawn nearly double by lnilammatory rheumatism, by binding it to a board in a position as much extended as their united .strength could extend it In this way thoy left tho youth over night, tho victim frequently fainting from tho pain inflicted. Finding in the morning that nothing had been ac complished, they proposed to sever tho cords back of tho kneo, and wcro only preventing from doing tills by tho determined interposition of tho mother of tho loy. Tito villains persisted in saying that thoy could have accomplished tho euro If left freo to mako tho operation, and in dignantly demanded tho foe, $2.r, agreed upon. This was paid them by tho father, who al.-o toltl them of ncasoof "fever soro" some miles away. To tho hoiiso of tho sufferer thoy nimlo their way. They got tho case. They wafehed tho soro with gunpowder water, burned tho center of it with a strong acid, and prepar ed a red hot uecdlo to plnugo Into it, but tho patient gavo them eleven dollars to quit the case and leave the houso. Furtheron thoy found u case of soro eyes, to which they adminis tered for$.ri, a wash, from tho direct effects of which it seems likely tho patient will Ioo his eyesight.' What other barlttritiea "Tho Twins" prac ticed are not yet recorded. They were not arrested at last accounts, but an effort to apprehend them was Doing made. Hanging wouiu seem too light a punMiment for such butch ery. And what shall bo said of thoo who wore tho dupes of tlieso rascals? How find wortls to denounce tho credulity, tho stupidity, tho Ignor nnco that makes such practices pos sible, in this land of newspapers and free schools? We give up tho conun drum In disgust. Prairie Iltrmer. When a man has no design but to sneak plain truth, ho may say a great deal In a very narrow compass. POMPEY'S CONSCIENCE. Several years ago, in n New-England village, might bo found a very flourishing Congregational Church, which was served by nn cltlcrly pas tor of great worth and of unusual ability us a preacher. It was as com mon then as it is now uncommon, for tho pastoral relation among thorn to grow stronger with age, and not un I'rcquentiy to last a Hie time. " Hut times change, and wo chango with them." tho Roman poot says ; and so our old friend tho pastor found. Ho was not at all disposed to yield up his position ; although ho know from cold looks of some, and averted faces of old friends, members of his congre gation, that ho ditl not stand so well with tlio " now set," who had sprung up in the room of their fathers. "Coming events cast their shadow before," and tho good man felt in his bones that Ito was to sou trouble cro long. Matters came to n crisis in tho fol lowing fashion: The malcontents had for some tlnio been tlndlng fault now with ills doctrines, which wcro "old fogy," and "out of date;" now with his sermons, which were "too long," "too prosy," without Are, and " not of a sort to touch tho heart ;" again witli his mannor, which was "cold." "too gravo and monoto nous" to suit the young peoplo; In fact, they had pretty much over hauled everything that could bo mado a handlo of, to get tho good parson out of his congregation. And no did not or would not pay any at tention to what at last came to his cars, through somo of tho gossips. Finally thoy resolved to "bolt." They had borno It as long ns they could. They wouldn't endure it any longer. They resolved on tho " next Sabbath " to rise in a body and leave "tho meeting." They did so, and took a pretty large proportion of tho congregation, not all decidedly opposed to tlio par son, but sovcral of tliem of that class who nro ready to follow others to good or ovil moro " wax noses." no of those wns named Pompoy, shortened into Pomp, which, lu fact, suited well with his character; for Pomp was a well-dres-ed negro on Sunday, and folt himself "as largo as any whito man." Pomp had heard tlio conversations of ills whito brethren, and had determined to bolt with them, if titer should leave tho comrreiratloii. And ho did. Ah Pomp Joined tlio rclwls on tho outside, they wero greatly taken aback. Thoy did not evidently con sider him of as much honor to their movement, ns ho judged himself. So one of them opened lire upon hint: " Pomp ! what tiro you doing out hero V" "Me, sah? I'so got tired of do parson." "Tired! What havo you to say against hlniV" "O nullln special agin do man, but I do.zent Uko his teachings. Ills sermon is too long ; I goes to sleep, vo see. I likes soinfou more 'citing like ; and, do fact Is. my conscience won't let me sit any longer under his prcachln." " Conscience, Pomp ! That's too good !" 'Yes, sah ! Can't tlio gemma n of color nai) consnuns, l'so uko to know?" " Well, I 'sposo ho can, Pomp ; hut what do you know about conscience? What is conscience V" " Consliuns ? I tink I knows what conshuns is, Conshuns.snh I alicmt" (Pomp hero drew himself up, put his hand upon his breast, witli his lin ger preyed in firmly, and with ills eyes rolled up in a sanctimonious fiHilon, said with great energy) : "Conshuns-Is dal fertln in mini:, what says won't. JhiV constuns, sah." Thero is a. great tleal In our day which is said mid done under tho sa cred tiamo of conscience, but when reduced to its truo meaning, it is nothing moro nor less limn that feel ing within of sheer self-will, which says emphatically, with eves raised to heaven, hand uKn tho breast, and finger pressed to tho heart, "I won't." It's Pomp's conscience. Church Journal. IH'DIHXUS. Con?.' Mi:ai Pitddinos.
