One only circumstance troubled the calm and peaceful flow of the serene our - rent of hes life. A heciee grief -Some uatold sorrow -lay like a canker at his mother's heart; its ravages were un- iermieing her health, arid contracting, vette fearful rapidity, the already too little space which stretched between her and the grave. Her wan features, her secret tear, whose traces were requently visible in her swollen eyes vhein she appeared at the breakfast able, aad those unbidden :sighs that burst from leer at times, as if hec eart were full to ,breaking, caused Ednaund many a sleepless night, and any a waking hour of melancholy houghts. There had ever •been se uch of unreserved oommunication be- ne-een himself and his another, upon II things save this one, that he felt el had here no right to intrude upon lee sanctuary of her grief, because he oneluded she must have sufficient 'eason,s for drawing around it so im- ein•etrable a veil. When, however, he erceived what inroads it was making Nom a life- so dear to him, he could q longer be restramed by these den- ote considerations. A higher duty ham even the respect inspiren by filial bligationes-tbe sacred duty of his 1.aIlfn.g, which enjoined him to breathe he word of comfort over the wounded nd mourning spirit, made him resolve o seek an opportunity of tenderly ina- taring from his mother a disclosure f the affliction teat preyed thus rat- tly upon her peace of mind. 133215 ere e found an opportunity, events forced hemselves a passage. to his ear. 0;1 ,fut cututrePhe which (mused him to 30 atenrethended aS a murderer. Then, Ox it began, to be whispered in Tin- tern, that Xsaao Price,' the poacher,. was noi other than •David Morgan who bad been transported upwards, of twenty- one years ago, and who was the father oe that excelleat young mane the Rev, Edanlind Moxgon. Edmund lietened to this recital with do* attention ; and, when it was con- oluded, he exclaimed, after a short • pause, "Mather, I wil I see nisi' father. I can nothing for him in tins world, wetiole he must so WOO i•eave; but he Le not preparesi ter the next; and his eternal •soul must not perish, I win hina, in prison; talk with him; and, if eenaighly God bless my pur- Innees I Mae' beeome an instruntent, in His heads, for bringing hira to the true repentance of a contrite sinner," There was oonsolation to Vester's heart in those word e of ber eon, anti hen sorrow wae net without gladness, when she thought of the p,-oad work Whict filial piety might accomplish. The very next day. Edmund went in Monmouth, end proeured an interview with Isaac Price. He did not discloee himself; but assumed the character Of a friend of 11Ers. Morgan merely; sent by her to know if there were any ser - :sloe which she coin(' render him in his present, situation. It may be imagin- ed watt what feelings he beheld,for the first tnne, him who was his father in the degraded condition of a felon and a murderer. His appearance was that of a man between fifty and sixty with a .powerful make of body, and 11 catentemmee which inclicatea a rcug.11 and daring spirit, rather than the pre- valence of feroolous passions. His eye Was dull and heavy, and sunk deep in- to his head ; and on his right cheek there "were the, traces cat a. severe wound, wheh, it was supposed, he had reeeived in hie desperate strung -1e with the gamekeepe,r. The top of his head was entirely bald; and, when his hat was off, the bold projection of his fore- heasi gave a v,gorous and deternainecl character to the general expression of his face. Re scarcely look -ed at Ed- mund while speaking to him; but once or twice their eyes men and -it raight be fancy -but his naanner seemed dis- turbed, as if some remembered resem- blance of featuree once familiar to Jahn were suddenly awakened; for Edru.und was exceedingly like his another. To the pretended message, of which Ed /mind represented h:raself as the bear er, his answer was, that "he knew o no 'service which Mrs. Morgan, or any body else, could render han, unless sh c•ould save his neck frora the halter and, if she. would supply him wit renney to pay the lawyers well, pm hape he might get off." Edmund, wit felt deeply shocked at this eeprobat 2peech, and. at the, reckless insensibil ty it evinced of the awful Mimetic ,n which his father stood, said, 13 would undertake to promise for Mrs elorgan, that whatever money reign ba -required to obtain for him the ut mast benefit of legal assistance shout e eeady. He then endeavored., nadir otly, to lead. h:m into a convereation upon the nature of the crime wit] vhich n_ was charged, and the certain oast:nuances of h.s conviction ; but h nrtintained a sullen silence; and, a test, naanifested no equivocal symp EC,s /nether entered his room one orning 1/1 extreme agitation. "-You eye heard," said she, with a faltering oece, "of the dreadful business that ock place last week ; the murder, for it is considered, of one. of the Duke Beaufort's gamekeepers, in a scut- i,le 10.):t?,s,yeen hen and the poacher, Isaac "I have," replied Edmund, "and the retched. man will, surely be hung if e is taken." "He is taken," answered Mrs. Mor- ."anct lodged in IVIonatouth jail." -It is the law of Ceod and man," eaid delairld, "that whoso sheddeth the cosi. of another, his own blood. shell . the atonement, This Isaac.

Davisi took his nun's hands and press- ed them convulsively to his irsom ; but still he could not speak, theugh he wept as a child. In a few rainotes the struggle was over, and he was able calmly to leagn how nayeternus- ly the will of God hact1brught about his conversion by the Inliness of his own issue. The morning, dawned, and only a few hours now remained befere he would hare to suffer the brief agony cf death which no longer appalled him bee its terrors. He earnestly entreated Edmune to accompany him 12' the: scaf- fold, that he might see with how much Christian fortitude he could meet his doom. It was a dreadful task, but he shrank not from it. He walked by his father's side. As they passed through ono of the yards leading 12' the place or execution, David at pped a,nd spoke ta his. son, "It was on: this very spot," said. he, "that I first looked twee you, then an infant in the arms of your mother and she held you ti me, and bade me kiss you; and I did so.

Otte Is: France That Is 0Vcr Three macs to Length. Of canal -tunnels proper, the longest is the Riqueval tunnel, on the St. Quentin canal in Feance. It is 21 feet wide, 41 feet high and 214 miles long. The .Eloirran tunnel, which brings wa- ter to the same canal, is 71-2 miles long, but it can hardly be called a can- al -tunnel in the ordinary sense, as it is bat five feet wide and cannot be used for ordinary canal boats. Anoth- er French canal -tunnel on the Marne - and -Rhine canal is three miles long, In England the longest oanal-tunnel is the St andege tunnel on the Hudders- field caeital; it is 31-10 miles in length. Next to it comes the Sapperton tunnel, on the ehames and • Liverpool canal; it is 4,300 yards long. In these long tunnels there is gener- ally no towing prath. Through some the boats are taken by means of steam or electricity. On the Riqueval tun- nel twenty or thirty barges, each weighing 300 tons, are often taken through in a line, by means of a steam towboat working on a chain, at the bottom ot the cartel. In others men in the boats haul upon chains fastened to the wall, oa• propel the boats by pushing with poles againstethe roof. In a few the old m,ethocl of "legging" is still used.
