I Ie had occasion to send a little son across the liver to the house ol a rela tion, ou an ofrntid, and as there was then no hridg'i, the river must he lorded.

He therefore passed a sleepless night anticipating with all a fatln r's feel ings what might hef.d his child in the mom log. The day dawned— the storm Had ceased, the wind was still, and nothing was to lie heard hut the roar ol the Waters of the fi ver. The rise of the rivhr exceeded even the. father’* expectations, and no sooner w an it sufficiently light to enable him to dis tinguish objects across it, than he placed himself on the Imnk to w atch lor the ap proach of his.son.
