Suddenly, in a moment, he had been arrested b the stroke of death. A be ov. family, a great circle of frien s, bent over him in anguish. And I said, hold the end of worldly glory ! Vanity of vnnilics E Wliat is the funeral oftlie rich more than Iliat oftlie poor? But, as the minister of God opened his lips, I heard a voice from lieavemsaying, “Ulce- su-.l are the dead who die in the Lord." It was the death of him, mourned nnd larncnied. Miracle ofgrace !

TIIE WOLVES OI" THE AMERICAN PRAIRIES. The aagacity of wolves is almost incredible. 'I'liev will remain rousida hutitiug-camp and follow the hunters the whole day, in bands of three and four, at less than it undred yards distance, _stopping.vrhon they stop, and sitting down quietly when the game is killed, rushing todcvourtlie ofiiil when the hunter retires, and then following, until another feed is olfercd them. lfa deer or an- telope is wounded, they iinmcdiately pursue it, and not uufreqacnt- ly pull the animal down in time for tho ltuntcr to come up and so- cure it from their ravenous clutches. However, they appear to lriiow at once the nature ofthe wound, for if but slightly touched, they never exert themselves to follow a deer, chasing those only which have received it mortal blow. Ioiie day killed an old back, which was so poor, that I left the carcass on the ground untouched. Six coyotes, or smell prairie wolves, were my attendants that day; and, of course, before I had left the deer twenty paces, had coni- menced thcir work of destruction. Certainly not ten minutes after, I looked back and saw the some six hopping after me, one of them not twenty yards behind me, with his nose and face all hestneuretl with blood, and hie bell swelled almost to bursting. Thinking it scarcely possible, that t cy could have devoured the whole deer in so short a space, I had the curiosity to return, and to my nstonisli- enteally nothing left but ii pile of bones and hair. the flesh bei etri tom t at, as clean as if scraped with a knife. Halfan hour after, I killed a large black tnl! deer, and, as it was also in miserable condition, I took merely the fleeces (its the meat ere M) saying what we may come to. It is not very long since, it would have seemed as impossible to cover eighteen acres of ground tlllll glass, as to erect a pagoda of soap bubbles, yet the thing is done.

'l‘lie habit does not seem to is so pernicious in its results as that ofopiom-ealiii . is coin- menced by tultiug it very small dose, say somewhat less than hall‘ agrnin, every morning, which is gradually increased to two or three grains. ’I‘lie case of ti halo old farmer is mentioned, wliosa morning whet ufarsenic, reached the incredible quantity of four grains.

CEI.I"3'I'IALS IN CALIFORNIA. The Chinamen are pouring into California at the rate of I50 to 200 r week, and very few of them abandon the country. The majority of them steer their course straight for the mine.-, and thrive most iadustriously.

It is one of the many marvels of that marvel- be an epoch in tbeadininiutration of justice in this oountr . On that day will come into operation, the act which was ‘ last session of parliament for admitting the evidence, of the parties to them :—u change, the magnitude and rtance ofwhich, can only be estimated by those whose duties as awyere, or wlicsc misfortunes as suitors, have tnade them familiar with the course of trial which has hitherto been observed in all our higher courts; and which, until of late years (when it li:is been, by the authority of the legislature, abandoned in the County Courts), was the general rule of ourlaw.
