Dr. Patton, a very excentric olergyman, . was traveling in England. He met a Fellow of one of the Colleges, who was anxious to make an enquiry of the Doctor, provided he would give no offence. The Doctor told hiin to "out with it," as he guessed it would not hurt much. - Fellow^-*'The inquiry is this:?Do you think that your present form of government will stand, or that your people will not soon require a king?" "Dr. P.?"Well, sir, that this is indeed a question that does not fall in with my predilections, for I am a thorough Republican. Still, I have no objootions to answer your question frankly. It is my opinion, to which I have come after much reflection, that we shall eventually have a king." Fellow.?"I am sure of it?I am sure of it!?but I have never yet seen an American who was willing to admit it. Will you favor me with the reasons on which you found your opinion ? for I have no doubt they are good ones." Dr. P.?"I think they are good ones, and will frankly state them to you. They are these: I read in the Bible that when Israel was a virtuous people, God governed them generally with judges of their own choosing; but when they became a corrupt and degragraded people, God in icratli gave them a king. As we are rapidly importing European manners, and corrupt customs into the U. States, I greatly fear that we shall degenerate until Crod will treat us as he has the degraded nations of Europe, and give us a king!" The Fellow grew suddenly red in the face, and would have fought, but the laugh of his neighbors was so hearty, that he had to join in it, and soon he managed to say, "Well, you have taught me one lesson today that I shall never forget." Dr. P.?"And, pray, what may that be? ?for it is very rarely that an Englishman will admit that he learns any thing from an American." Fellow.?^"I have learned to let the Yankees alone, and not medlle with their peculiar matters. Dr. P.?"Thank you, sir. But allow me to say that you are rather slow scholars, for we certainly taught you that lesson at Bunker Hill." Fellow.?"I see that you are incorrigible." Dr. P.?"And that's the way with your people." Worse Than That.?Some years ago as Capt. B., of the steamer Water-Witch, was j passing down the Arkansas River, they had j pressing need of an axe, and not having one ! on board, at the first landing the boat round- j ed to, the captain dispatched an Irishman to i the nearest cabin in quest of one. Pretty soon . Patrick returned with an axe; but when, after having used it, the Captain ordered j him to return it, he refused point-blauk. j "But what is the reason V urged Captain j B . 'tSure then an' I'll tell ye. When I went up to the cabin I saw a white woman, an' I! axed her perlitely for the loan of an axe, j and she telled me to ax her husband in the : corn-field. So, yer honor, I went up to the corn-field, and I saw a big black nager a! standing there, and I ses to him, ses I ?an' j where's your masther?" Ses he, "I'm the I masther;" an' ses I, "I'm afther having the ' loan of an ax for a few minutes." Ses he,; "go down to the house and get it." Well, I got the ax Captain, and as I wint by the j door ses to myself, "bejabers I'll give her a j small bit of me mind " So Ipokeamv head in the door, and ses I, "aint ye ashamed of yerself to be haviuga black nagerfor a has-, band!" Ad' ses she, "Law no! J had a sisther done worse thauthat;" an'ses I "what was that sure?" ao' ses she, "She married an Irishman." Ad, be dad, I'll be aftber spaking no more to the baste, Capting, beggin yer honor's pardon." The "CaptiDg" laughingly excused, him 1 from' so unhappy a duty. '' ~' \ A good one is told of a worthy dca- 1 con in^the city ofS., in Northern Ohio. The I ilpaenn *w#s the owner and overseer of a large ' pork-packing establishment. His duty it was to stdhd at the head of the scalding 1 trough, watch in hand, to "time" the length of the scald, crying "Hog in!" when the just slaughtered bog was to be thrown in the [ troughs and "Hog out" when the watch told three minutes. One week the press of busi- 1 ness compelled the packers to unusually hard 1 labor, and Saturday night found the deacon 1 completely exhausted. Indeed he was almost sick the next morning, when church time came, but he was a leading member, and it was his duty to attend the u9ua! sab- ( bath service if he could. He went. The ' occasion was one of unusual solemnity, as a 1 revival was in progress. The minister preach- 1 ed a sermon well calculated for effect. His peroration was a climax of great beauty.? . Assuming the attitude of one intently list- ' ening, he recited to the breathless auditory: I Hark ! they whisper; Angels say?" "ITorj in!" came from the deacon's pew in a stentorian voice The astonished audience turned their attention from the preacher.? He went on, however, unmoved? , "Sister spirit, come away!" ? , "Moq out!" snouted tne aeacou?muu four!n - - ( This was too much for the preacher and ( audience The latter smiled, some snickered audibly, while a few boys broke for the door, to "splittheir sides" laughing. outside, within full heatin?. The preacher was disconcerted entirely?sat down?arose again? pronounced a brief bendiction, and dimissed the anything else than solemn minded hearers. The deacon soon came to a realizing sense of his conscious interlude, for his brethren reprimanded him severely; while "the boys" caught the infection of the joke, and every possible occasion afforded an opportunity for them to say ? Hog in!" "Hoq out!" An Alternative.?An old Scotch tailor happened to have a helpmate of a very peevish and querulous temper. "I'm gaun to dee, Andrew," said the wife. "Are ye ?" replied the tailor, as cooly as if he had been trying the temper ot Ms goose. "Are ye??is that the way you speak, when I'm telling you that I'm gaun to leave you forever? Ye're no to lay my ba^es here amang the riffraff o' Linlithgow, but take them to Whitburm, and lay them beside my father aud mother." Andrew, esteeming a promise made to a person on the verge of time as sacred, and not wwbiflg. te put himself to the expense (which indeed, he could ill afford) waited giving any answer, but led on a different conversation. "Do you hear Andrew?" ? "Oh, yes I hear." "Weel, mind what I'm saying; take me to Whitburn, or I'll rise and trouble ye night and day; do you hear?" "Yes, yes, I hear perfectly. Is that pain iD your side troubling ye yet ?" "Ou, aye! I'm a' pain thegither; but the maist pain to me is, that you'll lay my dust here." "Oh, woman, dinna distress yourseK about that simple circumstance." "Mind, I'd no lie here; ye maun take me to Whitburn, I'll trouble yc.ifye dinna, and ye may depend on't." "Weel, weel, then, if ye maun be buried at Whitburn, I canna help it; but we'll try ye at Linlithgow first." Amusing Ancdote.?Daniel Webster had an anecdote of old Father Searl, the minister of his boyhood, whicn is too gooa to be lost. It was customery then to wear buck-skin breeches in cold weather. One Sunday morning in tne autumn, Father Searl brought his breeches down from the garret; but the wasps had taken possession during the summer, and were having a nice time of it in them. By dint of effort he got out the intruders and dressed for meetiug. But while reading the Scriptures to the congregation", he felt a dagger from one of the enraged small-waisted fellows, and jumped around the pulpit, slapping his thighs. But the more he slapped and danceif the more they stung. The people thought him crazy, but he explained the matter by saying. "Brethren, don't be alarmed; the word of the Lord is in my month, but the devil is in my breeeh'-s!" Webster always told it with great glee to the ministers. BQy A Kentucky lawyer on circuit was asked to dine with the Judge. At the table, the Judge, as is his custom, asked a blessing, and shortly after rosefroin his seat and took from the sideboard a bottle of Old Bourbou, of which he invited his guests to partake, partaking freely himself, as is also his custom. After dinner, the lawyer said : " Judge, will you permit me to ask you a question?" ?<Oh, certaisly," replied the Judge; " what is it ?" "I observed," said the lawyer, "that after you had asked a blessing, you set on the bottle. Now, I wish to know whether you are ashamed to ask a ble.ssing on the liquor, or whether you thought it was good enough without?" The Judge took the case under advisement. Satan's Mistake.?Old Bobtail was an j uncommonly good man, but in his old age : he became impatient of the world and anx- i ious to beat rest. He was often tempted to j drown himself. One morning, about two o'clock, his son j was awakened by the old gentleman's call- ' ing out: 1 "Abel! Abel! Satan has been tempting i me all night to go and drown myself in the 11 horse trough." < "Well, then, father, he must be a great i fool," cried out Abel, in reply, "for there j i hasn't been a drop of water in it for six ; i weeks!" {1 The old gentleman turned over, went to 1 sleep, and never woke till the sun wa6 two \ hours high. { ? ***** ( A young lady is charged with having ( said that if a cartwheel has nine felloes, it's ( a pity if a pretty girl can'; have one.

We find on the pages of civil history, con- t stant recurrences to the use of Wine as a an social beverage ; especially among the higher j. and partricianc lasses." At the convival meet ing of boon companions, champagne and-othcr sparkling liquids were among the pro- ^ gramme of. refreshments, and considered . indispensable to the hilarity of the evening. * When friends occasionally met, the warm _ clasp of the hand and cordial greeting must - - - - - 1 ?. be ratified by -a glass ot raoy wine; ana cyru the romantic and chivalric Troubadour, gift- en ed as he was with the sweet spirit of song, must q inspire the minstrel's strain, and fortify his fl courage by quaffing the wine-cup, before trilling his lay beneath the latticed window of his ladylove. Fashionable dinner-parties were decidedly not rccherclie, if various wines graced not the sumptuous table, with which to drink the health of friends, or the complimentary toast; and the reigning^elle jsl of the season received the homage to her ^ bright eyes, her grace and . beauty, in an mf overflowing goblet ofthe sparkling beverage, ed Even in our own happy America, many tb' pears ago, in every house of any pretensions, ^ the side-board was decorated with finely cut glass and well-filled decanters; and "mine host" wasconsidered far deficient in courtesy ai| and hospitality, if the casual visitor or friends ^ of the house were not invited to drink a glass se^ of fine brandy or daintily sip Maderia at their pleasure. But thanks to the noble Sons of Temperance, and other bands of moraii re- tei formers, this custom has fallen almost entire- Pe Ivintodisuse: and the Dure, crystal streams lc J * l ' v . ug of Temperance, now sparkle, where the flow- m) er-wreathed but poisoned bowl once presi- tri ded. But it is more particularly of the cue- be torn now so fashionable in the parlor or draw- 0 ing-room that we would speak. Alas ! that wi ladies, and especially yonng ladies, at balls, Tr parties, pic-nics, and even round the sacred ! hearth-stone, will drink intoxicating beverages in the presence of father, brother and friends, how often are refreshments brought = in accompanind with wine and other stimulating drinks, that are coyly sipped, but with evident pleasure by ihc lady-visitors; and I have seen those who refused to partake of this hospitality, frowned upon, call- w ed squeamish, puritan, and heard it asserted in their absence, that any one who is so very paticular, would take such stimulants when it could bo done secretly! Of this, I have only to suy, that " to the pure 0 all things are pure," and the purest motives can never be appreciated by thoes who have ~ no sympathy with them. But, oh ! young lady, if you have a father or brother, to say nothing of your influence over friends and acquaintance^, stop, and think before ypn drink the exhilirating but poisonous draught. _ Dearly as you love your brother, proud as you are to claim him; oh, better far see him lying before you pale and still, with death's signet on his unsullied youth, than, by your * example, lead him in the first steps of dissipation, to the infamy of a drunkard's grave. ? 3fou may think I speak warmly upon the subject, or from an overwrought imagination; but had you known and felt what I have; had you seen the hearts of those you love, crushed, bleeding and bowed before you with an agony too deep for words; and all from ( the effects of wine?oh f you would hate, Q loathe and abhor its very name. And he to whom you have given your W best affections; in the sunshine of whose love you only exist; can you offer him the winecup ? Can you lure him to ruin, to a fate ~ worse than death ? Be not angry, dear lady, but you surely do not /ore one whom you can urge upon a precipice crowned with flowers, n when the first false step will hurl him to death and destruction. You may say there is little ^ or no harm in asocial glass of wine taken occasionally, but it docs harm you; it sullies q the lovely purity of woman's moral character ?audoh! remember, your influence, your ex- j ample will bind a potent spell upon the hearts n< of those who love you. It may not lead you re to dissipation, to an excess that will intoxicate ; your woman's pride, the security and er seclusion of home may save you from such ^ degradation; but your brothers go forth to Sr battle with the world, its snares and tempta- Cc tions beset them ou every side; and if tbey ^ have imbibed a taste for wiuc at home; if h, you put the glass to their lips and bid them vi! drink, does it not follow that where it is elsewhere, and at places where it is presented to them in the most seductive form 1 And q can we wonder that gentlemen drink intoxeating beverages, when they see them sipped f; by the rosy lips of the ladies, and their merits ca and flavor commented upon with thejudg- sn meut of a connoisseur? If woman, whom ,ft they regard with homage and respect; whom n(] they look upon as an embodiment of virtue to and purity, cau thus sully her lips, can we ^ expect them to mauitain their integrity ? of It'you offer them the cup with your own fair pt hands, aod with beaming smiles insist upon ^ their tasting it, can you wonder that they f0 are often unable to refuse, and accept the pt proffered beverage, though a serpent is coiled beneath its ruby waves ? I have heard some pf gentlemen say, that though not in the habit oj of drinking wine, and opposed to its use, . their moral courage had been insufficient to ^ resist the temptation when presented to them th by a lady; especially if it was one whom p1 they had chosen as a "bright, particular star." Think of that, dear lady, remember th how great is your influence over your gentle- Pl men friends?and oh ! exert it to cultivate in .er them ennobling principles. And when you ta put the glass of wine to your own lips, look at around upon your father, brother and friends, of and dash the cup to the earth, as you would ; x< a beautiful but poisonous reptile.?National fin American. . I in by Common Beverage of Scripture.?The 1 common beverage of Scripture characters was ! water. This was the drink provided by a se God of love for our first parents in Eden.? j j5" When Abraham sent away Uagar, he gave her a bottle of water. When Rebecca re-! ha ceived the offer of marriage, she gave to ue Abraham's servant water. The Kngel that came to Ilagar, in the wildernes, pointed ; mc tier to a place of water. Gideon's three hun- J Pa dred valiant soldiaro (JraDk water. Samson ; p0; and his mother draDk water. I?jng,Suul in the cave drank water. At Nabul's feaet of sheep shearing, the beverage provided was su! water. Elijah, when fed by ravens, drank water; and when he came to the widow of Zidon, asked only for water. When an an- a jel brought bim his provisions for the journey A )f Horeb, the iiqoi^ ia the cruise was water. ch< jfood Obediah fed the one hun^rai} prophets >n bread and water. When the king of tF [srael made " great provisions" for the Sy- A, in army, the drink was wator. At the ill of Samaria, both Jacob and Jesus drank iter. Job's traveler, .went to tho stream for iter. The king of Assyria promised the !ws that, on submission, they should eat eir own viae, and. drinh the water of eir own cisterns. -The Israelites proposed the Edomites to purchase water. Daniel 1 d his pious comrades asked permission to ] ra on water. Timothy's usual drink-was j. iter; the " little wine f'* being prescribed adieinally.
