"It was a aad funeral to me," paid tbe speaker;
"the aaddest one I bave attended for many years."
"That of Edmonson ?"
'Yes."
"Uow did he die V
"Poor—poor as poverty—his life was one long
straggle with the world, and at disadvantage.
Fortune nocked him all the while with golden
promises, none ol which were realized."
"Yet he waa patient and enduring," remarked
one ot the company.
"Patient as a Christian—endm ing as a martyr,"
«rasanswered. "Poor man! he was worthy a better fat«. Ue ought to have succeeded, for he deterred success."
"Did he not succeed T" questioned the one who
had spoken ol hia perseverance and endurance.
"No, air, he died poor as I have juet said. Nothing that he put hia hand to ever succeeded, A
strange fatality seemed to attend every enterprise."
"I was witb him In his last momenta,-' said tbe
other, ''and I thought he died rich."
"No, he left coining behind," was the reply-
"Tha hcira will bave no concern as to the adminia"
tratioa oftbe estate."
"Ue left a good oarae," said one, "aad that is
something."
"And a legacy of noble deeds, done in the name
of humanity," aaid another.
"And precious examples," aaid a third.
"Lesaons of poliencc iu suffering, of hope in ad-
veralty, of heavenly cocfidence when no sunbeams
fell opou hia bewildered path," was tbo testimony
Ol another.
'-And high troths, manly courage, heroic fortitude."
"Then he died rich!" was the emphatic declaration. "Richer thau the millionaire who went to
his long home the same day. a miserable pauper
In all but gold. A sad funeral did you say ? No,
my friend, it was rather a triumphal procession.
Not a burial of a human clod, but tbc ceremonial
attendant upon tbu translation of an angel. Did
he not succeed! Why, his whole life was a series
ol successes. In every conflict, be came ont victor, aod now the victor's crown is upon his brow."
"Any grasping, boo 11 ess man, wilb a share oj

keeping it -, but no one in a hundred can "bravely

Ths gentleman elated the particulars of bis

•'That's all very good," eaid tbe Sergeant, "but
you want sixty pounds more to bo worth the

"For that," replied the gcnlleman, in no way
disconcerted, " I have a note ol haud of one Sergeant Davy, and I hope he will have the honesty
to settle it."
The laughter that tbis reply excited extended
even to the bench ; tbe Sergeant looked abashed,

HAVING purchased the patent right ofthe above
valuable invention, for the purpose of supply-
i tig the counties ot Los Angeles, Sau Bernardino
And San D'tego, is now prepared to execute all orders with which he may be favored.
The public are aware that it has been the Btodyof
■scientific men, architects and builders, Ibr many years
to discover an article lor Rooting purposes, that will
withstand sudden changes ot dfimate, be impervious
to water, and of sure protection against fire. The
i nventor of this rooting labored many years to coni-
Viine articles whieh would answer th<3 above purpose
aud obviate the dilUculties ot rust and decay attendant upon tin and shingles, and tho destruction by
the sun and frost of the various compositions used
("or moling. Thi--* he succeeded in doing, and now,
after six years of the severest trial we would invite
tlie careful attcntien ol all interested in such matters,
believing that they will be fully convinced of Kb
practical value both for durability and economy, in
which respects wc believe that its equal is not at
present known. This roofing can readily be applied
to roofs of every description, either sleep or flat, and
can be put on over shingles or tin, being much cheaper than the first and at half the cost ot the hitter.
Two coats of the mastic put on over au old leaky
tin roof, will mike it as good as new at one-third of

I saw a bund of brothers move,
Willi slow und solemn tread ;
Tbeir hearts are joined in ties of love,
In charity were wed j
Aud types of light illumined the ray,
Shone on the chastening rod,
And in the midst, wide oju :i Isiy
The gOSpel ot our Gok.
I o*>ked a man ot four Kcoro years
Why after them he rati!
lie mid—nnd nnslted into tears,
They feed the poor old man ;
He said, I once was sick and sad,
lly limbs were racked with pain ;
They came, they comforted and clad j
Tlie old man rose again.
I asked a weeping widow- why
She followed tbose betore T
She Raid—and wiped her weeping eyes—
Tbey came unto my door ;
They came wheu all the world beeide
Hud turned from me and fled—
They came nty wanl* and woes to bide ;
Tbey gave my children bread.
I naked an orphan boy why ho
His eager footsteps bend*!
He said—they smile on all like me,
Tbey wcrti my fnlhovs fYiind^ ;
Before lie died tliey clothed aud led,
And all onr gifts tbey gave,
And when we wept for lather dead,
They threw gifts in his grave.
And such, I .aid, are Masons all,
-Friends to the needy poor ;
Tbey never view a brother's fall,
They never shun his door,
And though 'tis said Ihey aro not "Free,"
Virtue and love are twins,
And the beat grace of Uliarity
Hides multitudes of sins.
Tbey worship in tbe Lodge of God,
Secret and solemn there ;
They bew beneath -his sacred rod,
And breathe a heartfelt prayer.
Free Masonry, like woman'b love,
Is taught by private rules,
So deep, that should it public prove,
It would be sport for fools.
(iuoil Night.
Good night I a word so often said,
The heed lees mind forgets its meaning ;
'Tie only when the heart lies dead,
Ou which our OWO was leauing,
We bear iu maddening music roll
That last "good night" along the BOul.
Good night I in tones that never die
Il peals along the quickening ear,
And tender galea of memory
Forever wait it near,
When stilled th»> voice—ob, crush of pain—
That ne'er Bhall breathe "good night" again.
Good night! it mocks us from lhe grave {
It overleaps that strange world's bound,
From whence there now* no backward wave
It calls from out tbo ground,
On every side, around, above,
Good night, good night to life and love.
Good night 1 ob, wherefore fades away
The light tbat lived in lhat dear word T
Why follows that "good night" no day,
Wby ure our souls so stirred T
Oh, rather say, dull brain, once more,
Good night! thy time of toil iB o'er.
Good night! now comcth gentle sleep,
And tears tbat fall like welcome rain,
Good night'. oh, holy, blest and deep
The rest that follows pain ;
How should we reach God's upper light,
If life's long day had no "good night ?"

Tiik Comet.—The following ie the conclusion of
lion. Edward Everett's 'Ml. Vernon Paper'' in
the New York Ledger upon the Comet:
"Return, then, mysterious traveler, to the
depths of tbe Heavens, never again to be Been by
tbe eyes of men now living 1 Thou bast run thy
race ot glory ; millions of eyes have gazed upon
thee wiih wonder ; but tbey shall never look upon
thee again. Since my laet appearance in these
lower skies, empireB, languages and races ot men
have passed away ; tbe Macedonian, tbe Alexan
drian, the Augustan, the Partial), tho Byzantine*
lbe Sarcenic, tbo Ottoman dynasties have sunk'
or arc sinking iuto the gulf of ages. Since thy
last appearance, old continents have relapsed
into Ignorance, and new worlds have come out
from behind tbe veil of waters. The Magian fires
arc quenched on tho bill-tops of Asia; the Chaldean seer is blind : the Egyptian hierogrammlsts
have lost their cunning ; the oracles aro dumb.—
Wisdom now dwels in (nrlherest Thule,or in newly
discovered worlds beyond the sea. Haply when,
wheeling up again from the celestial abyss, thou
art once more seen by tbe dwellers on earth, the
languages we ppeak ahall also be forgotten, and
science Hhttll have fled to the uttermost corners of
lbe earth, lint even there. His hand that now
marks out Iby wonderons circuit, shall guide thy
course; and then, as now, Hesper will smile at
lliy approach, and Arcturtie with his bobs rpjoice
at thy coming."
Full'.—What Ibis capital material for MdlDg
in, how it grows and where it comes Irom, is thus
told by tbcS. F. Times :
''Fulu grows upon trees, which attain an ava-
rage of about six feet. It Is a fort of Bilkcn moss,
very light and feathery, and is found in lots of
nearly a pound in weight, sticking to a bud in fhe
Qrotebwof limbs. The trunks of the trees arc
small^in fact mere sbrubB. It is Indiginons to
the islands in the Hawaiin groupe,but is gathered
chiefly upon the Islands of Hilo and Oahu. Upon
Hilo, some three hundred natives are employed in
IU collection. They receive fifteen and twenty
cents a day for their labors, and are engHged for
tbe year round. It ia collected by hand, similar
to the colton boll, and placed on mats slung from
the neck of lbe laborer. Then it is packed on
nafa■ to the sea-shore, and shipped in bags to
Honalulu, where it is shipped to every part ot the
world. There is no monopoly, excepting that ol
enterprise and the legitimate employment ofcapi-
tal to control the article; so pulu is free to the
world.
A Paris journal stated tbat a Deputy condemned lo death at Lyons bed committed ruicide,

Tiiosi* Stupid Etfunuuco.—The exiled Queen of
Oude, taking offense at Queen Victoria's India
proclamation, has published a reply, iu whicb she
criticises not only the British polities, but Rritish
Religion. Comparing her own faith with that of
Queen Victoria, she says : " That religion Is tbe
true one tbat recognizes but a single God,nml can
acknowledge none other. Rut when there are
three Gods in one religion, neither the Miibamc-
dariB, nor tbe Hindoos, lbe Jews, lhe Sun worship"
