He appeared greatly confused and . reached toa desk near him, from whielt he . took the Bible, which had been’ used to soljpemnize the testimony. This movement was receivéd with general laughter, and taunting remarks—among which we heard a harsh fellow close by ts, ery’out—. “He forgets where he is. Thinking to take hold of some ponderous law book, he has . made a mistake, and got the Bible.” “i. The remark made the young attorney fusk with anger, and turning his flashing eye upon the audicnegsbe. convinces’. them itgasy mistake,, ‘saying : 7 “Justice wants fo other book.” His confasion was gone, and “hastantly he was as calm as the sober Judge “Spon the bench. The Bible was opened, and every ‘eye w 3 upon hint as he quietly and leisurely turne . over the leaves. Amidsta breathless silence, . he read to the jury this sentence : “Lead us not into temptation.” A minute of unbroken sient followed, and again he read: = “Lead us not into temptation. 7 We felt our heart throb at the sound of those words. . The audience looked at each ‘other without speaking—and the jurymen Law—though framed forthe protection of .

We take pleasure in relating an incident, which greatly enlistéd our sympathies, held us spell bound by its interest, and finally made our heart leap with joy, atits happy . termination. In the iy of 184—, we chanced to be spending a ¥e country town [Harrisburg] in Pennsylvania. . It was court week, and to relieve us from the somewhat monotonous incident of village life, . we stepped into the room where the court had . convened. Among the prisoners in the box, we saw a! lad about ten years of age, whose sad and . pensive countenance, his young and innocent . appearance, caused him to look sadly out of. -.membrances—and we, by place among the hardened criminals by whom . he was surrounded. Close by the box, and . manifesting the greatest interest in the proceedings, sat a tearful woman, whose anxious . glance from the judge to the boy, left us no room to doubt that if was his mother.—We turned with sadness from the scene, toinguire . of the offence of the prisoner, and learned he . was accused of stealing money. The ease was soon commenced, and by the . interest manifested by that large crowd, we . found that oar heart was not the only one in which sympathy for the lad existed. we pitied him! © The bright star of youth had vanished from his face, and now it more éxpressed the cares of the aged. His young sister—a bright eyed girl—bad gained admission to his side, and cheered him with the whisperings of hope. But that sweet voice, which before had caused his beart to bound with happiness, shame had brought upon him. The progress of the case acquainted us with the circumstances of the loss, the extent of which was but a dime—no more ! The lad’s employer, a weaithy, miserly and . unprincipled manufacturer, had made use of it. for the purpose of what he called “testing the boy’s honesty.’ It was placed where from its very position the lad would oftenest see it, and least suspect the trap. A day passed, and the master to his mortification, . not pleasure, found the coin untouched.— . Another day passed, and yet his object was not gained. He was, however, determined that the boy should take it, and so let it re-. main. This continued ‘dtiptation Was too much for the lad’s resistence. The dime was taken. A single present for that Tittle sister was purchased by it. But while returning home to gladden her heart, his own was made heavy by being arrested for theft !—the nature of which he little knew. These circumstances were substantiated by sevéral of his émployer’s workmen, who were‘also parties to the . An attorney urged upon the jury the . necessity of making this “littlé rogue” an . plot. example to others, by punishment. His address had great effect upon all that heard it. . Before I could seé many tears of sympathy . for the lad, his widowed mother and faithful . sister. But their eyes were all dry now, and . none looked as if they cared for, or expected . ought else but ‘a conviction: The accuser‘ sat ina conspicuous place, smiling, as in fiend-iked exultation, over the misery he had brought upon that poor, but oneé bappy trio. We felt that there was but little hope for the boy ; and the youthful appearance of the attorney, who had volunteered his defence; . gave no enéouratt mcht-—ds we Jeatned that . We hay e, howev. W days in a beautiful’ inland. How . added only to the grief his } . quotation carried its moral to their hearts, — Then followed an address, which, for its thetic eloquence, we have never heard ext. j led. Its influence was like magic. s We saw the guilty accuser leave the room in the fear of personal violence. The prisoner. ‘looked . hopeful—the mother smiled again, and, before its conclusion, there was not aa eye in court that. was not moist. The,speech affecting to that degree which causes tears—it held its hearers spell-bound. The little time that was necessary to transpire before the verdict. of the jury could be . learned, was a period, of great anxiety and . suspense.” But when their whispering consul; tation ceased. and these happy words, ‘Not . Guilty,’? came from the foreman, they passed like a thrill of electricity from lip todip— the austere dignity of the court was forgot. . ten, and not.a. voice. was there, that dil not ' join the acclamations that hailed the lad’s re‘ lease! ‘ i The lawyer's first. plea wasa successful 'one. He'was soon a favorite, and now rep. resents his district in the councils of the naj tion. The lad has never ceased his graceful the affecting scene herein attempted to be described, have often ; been led to think how manifold grcater is the . crimes of the tempter than that of the tempted. s—. . ae See ee EmpLoyMent.—God pity the man who has nothing to, do. Idlenecss is mother of more . misery and crime than all other causes ever . thought or dreamed of by the profenndest . thinker or the wildest theorist. The idea that. labor—manual labor—is degrading, is not only foolish, but wicked.!, Too . proud to work! Strange pride ; better do anything than nothing. Labor is the basis of wealth, of science, of art, of everything which gives comfort. to the physical, and dig. nity to the spiritual life of man. Too proud . to work! . The devil is always busy with those who are most idle. If they don’t work, he will. A mind uncultivated will run to waste, as sure asa neglected. garden will be full of weeds and croples. The physical organization requires action, work, or it. will be effemuinate and powerless. He who can lift up twenty pounds to day, by practice and a temperate use ef the physical organs, may by and by astonish the world with his Herculean performances. Look at the young man who has no steady employment of any kind. See the bad habits that are hy degrees growing upon him. Watch his progress in dissipation and-his end in crime, And should he have courage and . strength sufficient left, after years of indo. lence, to break away from the degrading habit, how much will he long to live over the
wasted hours and years—so that he might . better improve them. A Major of Militia in’ Pennsylvania, who had recently been elected, and who was not overburdened with brains, took it ‘into his: head on the morning of parade to go out and exercise a little by himself. The field selected for the purpose was his own. Placing’ himself in a military attitude, with his sword . drawn, be exclaimed—“Attention the whole! . Rear rank, three paces, march!” and he tumpled down the éellar.
