Norwalk (Suzette.

Tuesday, May 8. 1866.

m... the Shilling Magazine.
Destiny.
Olaf and Gonthrou, abbot's thralls,
Were hcwing abbey wood ;

Pine beams for chancel roof they sought,
And oak beams for the road.

 

Around “I'll north and South there rose
The cuckoo flowers in bloom ;

But overhead the raven cranked,
Amid the pine trees’ gloom.

Blue miles ofdrooping hyacinths
Spread where the saplings grew ;

But still the raven boded ill,
Above them out of view,

The violets long had passed away i
But where the axes rang—

Allin between the hazel stems—
The purple orchis sprang.

The wild deer eyed them down the dell,
Down from the great beech tree

The climbing squirrel turned to look,
And watched them silently.

The sunshine, barred with shadow-firs, .
' Cast gleams across the dell ;
The thrushes piped and fluted
Where‘er the sur'ibeams fell.

Woodpeckers ceased no measured toil,
Hearing the woodmen’s tread;
No merry blackbird hushed his song ;
No echoing cuckoo fied.

a
With axes glitteringkeen and bright,
Amid the fir-trees" line ; -
With song and psalm and gibe and curse,
. They hewed a stately pine.

In splashing showers the splinters new,-
Around them as they wrought f‘
Deep in the centre of the glade
They‘d found the tree they sought,-—‘

A giant mainmast,—massy, huge
Alljagg‘d with broken spars,

With lessening ledges of close boughs,
Impierceable by stars. I

They clove it slowly, gash by gash.
With ever hungry steel :—

SIowly before their stalwart arms
The tree began to reel

“Who knows“ .quoth Olaf, laughiii g-eyed,
“Thistree that soon will fall

MayProve a gibhet for some wretch
To swing and scare us all t"

Then Gontliron laughed, and bit his beard ,
And Bid, “Why Olaf, man,

Wé how the beams for the orga n-loi't
And for a shaven clan."

is

Just then, beneath the heaving roots,
They saw a brazen urn,

Brimming with coined Roman gold,
That in ads their wild eyes burn.

Theyran to it, they fought for it, .
They grappled in their pride ; —

Till wild beast Genthron struck his knife
Into fierce Olaf’s side.

On that day week the raven sat
Above the fir-treesllne,

And croaked his prophecies fulfilled
Upon the gibbet pine.

Above the spot that still was red

With murdered Olaf‘s blood
Swang Couthron-he, the abbot‘s thrall,

Who’d hewed the gibbet wood. w. e.

A NEW YORK Miss on Six Yuma—The
shortness and expansive character of the
skirt worn by this young person imparted to
her the general appearance of a ballet dan-
car as one of those evolutionary artistes ap-
pears when executing a piroustte. The ex-
pensive lace frill of the pantalettes descend-
ing no lower than just to kiss the top of the
long white stocking somewhere in the region
of the knee. The skirt, which was white,
was adorned with much elaborate fluting in
blue ribbon. Over this was worn a little
cloak of black velvet that must have cost
ever so much a yard, and all the margins of
this were studded thickly with small silver
buttons. On the fair head of the young per-
son under notice there sat jauntily, a white
jockey hat trimmed with streamers of blue
ribbon and surmounted with a white ostrich
plume. Boots of abright vermillion hue en-
cased the feet of this favored child. Her
parasol was of white silk, lined and tagged
with the same in scarlet, and she was pro-
vided with a little pocket handkerchief of
which the lace might have been worth about
ten dollars. The hair of the child was flax-
en, and would have been beautiful had it not
been crimped painfully over cushions or
wads. She had jeweled rings in her little
white ears, and, as she drew off one tiny, tau-
colorcd J ouvin glove, we could see that her
little white fingers were bejeweled also.

Mn. BEECHERS EXPERIENCE—Rev. Hen-
ry Ward Beecher told his religious expe-
rience at one of his recent conference meet-
ings in Brooklyn; He said he was a pro-
fessor of religion for some years before he
was a Christian. After graduating at Am-
herst he began the study of theology at
Cincinnati, and was still not only not a
Christian, but sceptical. The influence of
his father decided him to study. One of the
sons had swung oil into scepticism and should
another follow it would break the old man’s
heart. He did not intend to be a minister.
The study of theology would not hurt him,
and he need not go into the work when the
course was completed. Without cOnversion
and without believing in Christianity he be-
came a student of theology. . While in the
seminary some ladies belonging to the first
families of Cincinnati, connected with the
Second church, urged him to become teacher
in a Bible class. What could he do? He
who was not an experimental Christian, but
was sceptical. how could he teach in what
he did not know, and how could he teach in
what he did not believe ? He was a mem-
ber of the church and a theological student.
He accepted the trust that he could not hon-
orably decline. All he need to do was to
tell the class what the gospel contained. He
need nottcll them what he thought of them.
So he began his work. He studied and col-
lated theGospels. He took all passages,
scraps, hints and facts that bore on the char-
acter of Jesus, and his relations to guilty and
lost men. Jesus appeared to him in those
. Scriptures. He smote the rock and the wa-
_ ters gushed out. He saw the Saviour in all
his love and compassion, and fell at his feet
to addre, “Never till I get home,” said Mr.
Beecher, “will I have brighter visions of my
‘ Redeemer. I saw Jesus in all things-4n the
flowers, in the fruits, in the trees, and in
the sky, and above all in the Gospel.",‘,
——'—o«.» '
WA ludicrous and significant incident
occurred at one of Mr. Colton’s laughing gas
exhibitions at St. Louis last week. A young
gentleman whileunder the influence of the
mtoxicating atmosphere, after having ex-
pressed himself on the subjects uppermost in
his mind, burst out as follOws: " I am a rebv
cl soldier have been in the rebel army,
fought at Yicksbmg and Port Hudson, and
would like to do it ain ; but now Andy
, Johnson Is my man. y G—d, he’s the man
for me.” The audience enjoyed the fellow’s
, enthusiasm, but he looked rather sheepish
when his friends told him that he had “ let
the cat out of the bag." ‘

SEELY’S .
Patent Metallic Sole.

A NEW INVENTION.

Wetting the feet is the most prolific cause of dis-

ease and death known to humanity. It is almost
sure to bring and cold; and colds, neglected. and
often when not neglected,lcud to fevers or to con he
and fatal consumptions. It is in recognition of t is
truth that the inventive talent of the country has
forycnrs been devising some method. or attempt-
ing to devise it, for keeping the feet dry, and yet
should not give inconvenience to the wearer. Rub-
ber shoes, in one form or another, have hitherto
been our reliance; but it is well known, as among
their many evils, that while they keep the feet dr
from external moisture, they sweat them over mac
and by thus inducing an undue tenderness increase
a snSceptibility to colds rather than otherwise.—
They are also cumbersome to the feet and withal
are very expensive, The demand is for something
that shall make the ordinary Boot and Shoe imper-
vious to water, without afiecting their elegance or
durability, and, if possible, without adding sensibly
to the cost of their manufacture. These, it will be
conceded,. are most important features, and we con-
scientiously affirm that they are absolutely attained
in the invention herewith presented to the public.
. The invention consists in inserting between the
inner and outer sole, when the boot is making, athin
METALLIC PLATE, exceedingly ductile, combining
.ilexnbility with toughness verylight, and every way
adapted to the end desired, while the additional ex-
pense is merely nominal. It furnishes a perfect
barrier against the admission of wet or dampness,
though the feet may be exposed ever so long upon
wet pavements or damp ground.

To the ladies and children the METALLIC SoLss will
be of incalculnble value, as from their habits of life
and delicacy of dress, thsyearc. particularly exposed
to the long train of ills that attend upon an nade-
quate protection to the feet.

These Soles have already been tried by the best
of all tests, ACTUAL Use, and the testimonials to
their merits, freely proffered. indicate that they
must he s cedily and universally adopted by the
public. ‘lic Patent Metallic Soled Boots and Shoes
are being introduced into the leading Boot and
Shoe Stores throughout the United States, and will
supplant all forms of overshoes, except possibly for
deep mud or snow, as they become known. Be sure
to get them, and take no other. - If your shoemaker
does not hn pen to have them, he can procure them
Without di culty. If he will not, then send your-
selftp the inventor one dollar and thirty cents, and
obtain 51x pair, assorted, sizes, with right to use,
which will be promptly forwarded by mail or express
Ere-paid, and which can be made up by an shoema-

crin the country. Agencies will he sets lished in
every city and village, and supplied with Soles and
propriety stamps,at schedule prices, andliberal com-
mission allowed on sales. Also General Agencies
for States appointed on application, with proper tes-
timonials to the inventor.

Testimonials,

The undersigned have for the past six months
worn Boots and Shoes possessin Mr. Seely’s Mr:-
TALLIO Sons, and findthem an e 'eciual preventive
against dampness. and the colds so often taken
from damp feet. Most gladly do we testify to the
perfect efficiency of their service. The Metalic Sole
is not only a grand contribution to the cause of gen-
eral health, but a fiasiliué luxury, obviating all
necessity of India ubbcr shoes, exceptin muddy
weather. All ordinary dampness, and even water
upon the pavements, is completely foiled of its pow-
er of harm by this most simple and useful invention.
No one who has once used them will evei- be with-
out them avain, as they increase the cost of boots
and shoes y a sum which is reckoned among the
first conditions ol'health and comfort. We heartily
commend the "Metallic Sole” to all the sensible.

SAMUEL J. SEELI', Esq: ‘

Dear Sir—In reply to , your inquiries regarding
your patent Metallic Sole',I take great pleasure in
stating that I had them put in a pair of fine calfskin
boots, which I wore the whole of last winter in the
wet streets of Albany. Ihavehad them half soled
since, and am wearing your Metallic Soles now,wlth
full Intention never to be without them. I have
not had a wet or damp foot durin the whole timel
