Trust in God, and persevero." Sui Luveugoou and his Dad's Dorg. At tlic request ol' our t; Devil" we re publish " Sut LuveugdodV' pla? of burst i ig up a '' wuihless old bouu dorg." Jt is an old siory, but a good one, and will bear repetition : When 1 wer a boy, and my legs not longer than John Wentworth's, dad ibtch ed home a du med wurthless, mangy, flea bitten, gray old lox noun, good for nuth illg but to swal 1er up what ot ter lined the bowels of his brats. Well, I naturally took a distaste to lum, and had a sort ot hankerin arter hurtin his feelings and dis cumfortiti ov him every time dad's back wer turned. This sorter kept a big skeer allers afore his eyes, and a orful yell ready to pour cut thc first motion he seed mc make. So he larnt to swaller things as he run, and allers kept his laigs -well under himself, for he never knowd how soon he might want to use em in totin his infernal carcus beyond the reach ov a fl vin rock. Ile kuowed the whiz ov a rock in mos! un well, and he never stopt tu see wli? flung it, but just let his head fly open tu gin a howl room -to cum, and set-his laigs a gwyin the way his nose happened to bc pintin. He'd shy round every rock he seed in the road, for he looked, upon it as a calamity tu cum arter him sum day. I tell you, Georgy, that runnin is the greatest invention on earth, when used keerfully". Whar'd 1 a bin by this time ef I hadn't relied on these legs? D'ye see em ? Don't they mind you ov a pair of campusses made to divide the miles into quarters? They'll do. Well, one day, I tuck a pigs bladder ni unto the size ov a duck's aig, and filled it with powder and corked it up with a piece ov spunk, rolled it up in a thin sculp ov meat, and sot the spunk a fire, and flung it out; he swaliered it at a jerk, aud sot into gitting away fur doin it. I hearn a noise like bustin somethin, and his tail lit on top of my hat. His hean were a way down the hill and hit took a death hold outer a root. His fore legs were.fifty feet up the road makin ruunin moshuns, and his hind, ones a straddil ov a fence. Es tu the dorg his self, cs a dorg, I never seed him agin. Well, dad, durn his onsanctified soul, flung five or six hundred under my shirt with thc dried hide of* a bull's tail, and gave mc thc remainder next day with a wagon whip he borrowed from a fellow who was waterin bis bosses; the wagoner got sorry for me, and hollered me to turn my beggin and squallin into first rate running, which I cmojutely did, thanks to thes ere ham strings, and the last lick missed mo about ten feet.-Std Lnven go?d's Revelations. Not long since, a middle-aged gentle man and a young ''ady happened to be tho only passengers starting that morning in the stage for J-. They were strangers to each other. The lady was carrying a large white rabbit-a pet. Just before the stage stopped at a toll gate, the lady asked thc gentleman to hold the rabbit a moment, while she ar ranged some of her p ackages. He took it. covered it in his sha ?vi, and snugged it i a manner quite fatherly. The gatekeepe noticed it, asked if it was their child and unwell. The gentleman replied, "Yes our first-born, the poor thing!"' After the vehicle had resumed its journey, the gentleman handed back the pet, saying, " What beautiful eyes-just like its moth er's!" "Yes," responded the damsel " and ears just like its father's !" --? * ? DUST AND GIRLS.-A few Sabbath since Eda was, at her own request, allow ed to gd to Sabbath School, her first time and there she learned the startling intelli gence that she was made of dust. Li ttl Eda's mind was fulty impressed with the importance of the great truth, as was evinced by her frequent reference to the subject, in the shape of questions answera ble. This morning, however, she pro pounded a stunner, which brought down the house. Intently watching her mother sweeping, as if to learn the art she must finally practice, saying not a word, her eyes rested on the little pile of dirt ac cumulated by her mother's broom. Just as the dirt was to be swept into the street, the little -philosopher burst forth with "Ma, ma! why don't you save tho dust to make some more little girls?" GOING TO II-L ALIVE.-At a farm house recently, in the lower end of Knox county, some one at the supper table had been reading (he Governor's proclama tion calling out the militia. The old lady listened with painful attention. Dropping her knife and fork and wiping her mouth with the comer of her apron, she broke forth : u I just believe this war ain't over yet. These folks are goin' to begin to shoot one another again. I'll tell you, folks, what it is, if Brownlow don't die soon he'll go to h-1 alive." After which she finished her supper. . ? -?- ? When the celebrated Patrick Henry, o/ Virginia, was near the close of his life, f.nd in feeble health, he laid his hand on thc Bible, and addressed a friend who was with him: "Here is a book worth more than all others printed : yet it is my misfortune never to have read it with prppor sttee&ii at?! bfefy" About ti? same time he wrote to his daughter : " I have heard it said that Deists have claim ed me. The thought pained me more thau the appellation of Tory ; for I con sider religion of infinitely higher impor tance than politics, and I find much causo to reproach myself that I have lived so long and given no decided public proof of my being a Christian." <. Don't Like My Business." There is no greatet fallacy in the world than that entertained by many young men that some pursuit in life can be found wholly suited to their tastes, whims and fancies. This philosopher's stone can never be discovered, and every one who makes Iiis life a search for it will be ra ined. .Much truth is contained in the Irishman's remark : 11 lt is uiver aisy to work hurd." Let, therefore, the fact, be always remembered by tho young, thal no life-work can be found entirely agreea ble to a man. Success always lies at the top of a hill ; if we would reach if, we can do so only by hard, persevering effort, vhile beset with difficulties of every kind. Genius counts nothing in the battle of life. Determined, obstinate perseverance in one single channel, is everything. Hence, should any one pf our young readers be debating in hi* mind a change nf business, imagining he has a genius fur some other, hit.him at once dismiss the thought, as he would a temptation to do evil. If you think you made a mistake in choosing the pursuit or profession you did, don't make another by leaving it. Spend all your energies in working for and clingi.ig to it, as you would to the life boat that sustained you in the middle nf the ocean. If you leave ?'it, it is almost certain that yon will go down ; .but if you cling to it, infirming yourself about it until you are its mas ter, bending your every energy to the work, success is certain. Good, hard, honest effort steadily parserved in, will make your business br profession grow, since no one sh""ld expect to reach a period when he can feel that.his life-work is just the one he could have done best, and'liked best. We are allowed to see and feel the roughness in our own path way, -but not in others; yet all have them. -? ? *! BEAUTIFUL UIVER."-- Sabbath day is the beautiful river in the weeu of time. The other days are all troubled streams, whose angry waters are disturbed by the countless crafts that float upon them ; but the pure river Sabbath flows on to eternal rest, chanting the sublime music of the silent, throbbing spheres, and timed by the pulsations of the everlasting life. Beautiful river Sabbath, glide on ! Bear forth on thy bosom the poor, tired spirit, to the rest which it seeks, and the weary, watching soul to endless bliss! Cjrt Jbbertistr.
