Remarkable Foresight.
Siu: wai a remarkably sensible young lady Wbo made the request of her friends that •fter h^r decci3n she should not be buried by the Hido of a brook, whpro babbling loveu would wake her from her dreams ; nor in any prand csmeiery, whero sißbt-aeers, conninp OTer epitaphu, might dxsturb her ; but bo laid •way to her last Bleep under the counter of •orao merchant who did not advertise in tho newspapera. There, she said, was to be found a depth of quiet alumber on which neither the sound of the buoyant foot of youth nor the weary shuttle of old age would never intrude.
