Ilttmorotts department. A NEWSPAPER ADVERTISEMENT. Some years ago, a Quaker Knight of the shears and thimble, who exercised his avocation in Canterbury, was imposed ypon by an adroit Rcoundrel, who contrived to get a suit of clothes on credit, and afterwards decamped without paying for them. The Quaker was too poor to lose the debt; but like too many others of his doth, he had apparently no other alternative. The account was placed upon his books, and .soon forgotten. About five years afterwards he was examining his old records of debt and credit, profit and loss, when his attention was attracted to this account, and all the circumstances attending it came fresh to mind. Suddenly an odd thought suggested itself. "I'll try an experiment," said he to himself ; "perhaps I may succeed in catching the rogue and getting my pay." He immediately prepared an advertisement, in substance as follows, which he inserted in the Kent Herald: "If Mr. Henry "Webber, who was in Canterbury about the month of August, in the year 1853, will send his address to the editor of this paper, he will hear of something to advantage." Having instructed the editor not to disclose his name to the rogue if he should call, but to request the latter to leave bis address, the Quaker patiently awaited the result of his experiment. In a short time he was informed by a note from the editor that the individual alluded to in the advertisement, having arrived from London, might be found at the "Rose Hotel." The tailor lost no time in preparing a transcript of diis account, not forgetting to charge interest from the time that the debt Was incurred. Taking a bailiff with him, who bore a legal process suited to the occasion, he soon arrived at the lodgings of the swindler. The bailiff was instructed to stand off a little distance till a signal should indicate the time for him to approach. The Quaker now entered the coffee-room and rang the bell; and when the servant appeared, requested him to inform the gentleman of whom he was in search, that a friend wish to speak with him. The waiter obeyed the summons, and soon both debtor and creditor were looking each other in the face. uHow dost thou do f* kindly .inquired the Quaker, in a bland tone. "Ferbafps thou dost not know me?" "I believe I have not had the pleasure of your acquaintance," politely answered our hero, with a forced smile. "Dost thou remember purchasing a suit of clothes several years ago of a poor tailor in this city, and forgetting to pay for them ?" asked the Quaker. "Oh, no!" said the gentleman, blushing slightly; "you must be mistaken in the person. It cannot possibly be methatyou wished to find. But the Quaker was not to be shaken off by this denial of his debtor's identity. "Ah, John I I know thee well. Thou art the very man I wished to see. Thou hast on at tikis moment the very waist-coat that I made for thee. Thou must acknowledge it was of good stuff and well made, or it could not have lasted thee so lone." "Oh, yes," said the gentleman, appearing suddenly to recollect himself; "I do remember now the circumstances to which you allude. Yes, yes?I had intended to call and settle that little bill before leaving Canterbury, and you may depend on my ooing so. I have come here to take possession of a large amount of property which has fallen to me bv will. See! here is the advertisement whick apprises me of my good fortune." Here he handed to the Quaker a copy of the paper containing the advertisement whose history we have given above. The Quaker looked at it with imperturbable gravity, and continued, "Yes, I see thou art in luck; but as my demand is a very small one, I think 1 must insist on payment before thou cornest in jxjssession of thy large estates." A tap at the window here, brought the county court bailiff into the presence of the parties. The swindler was particularly astonished at the appearance of this functionary, who immediately began to execute his part of the drama. "What 1" exclaimed the rogue, in an angry tone; "you surely haven't sued me." "Yes, I have," replied the Quaker; "and thou shouldst be thankful that nothing worse has happened to thee." "Come in, then," said the debtor, finding himself fairly caught; "come in, and I will pay you, if I must" The three went into the house together, and the slippery gentleman having ascertained the amount of the bill, paid it in full. The tailor having signed the receipt placed it in the hands of his late creditor, with feelings such as may be readily imagined. The swindler took it and for the first time glanced at the various items of which it was composed. He said nothing till he came to the last charge, which was "for advertising," when he broke forth: "Hallo! what's this ? 'For advertising V That's an odd charge in a tailor's bill. You're cheating me." "Oh 1 no," coolly replied the Quaker; "that is all right. I have charged thee the cost of publishing the advertisement which thou just snowed me. Here the swindler savagely demanded: "Dp you mean to say that you caused the publication of that advertisement ?" "Truly, I did," replied the Quaker, with most provoking coolness. "You told a great falsehood in it!" quickly returted the rogue. "Convince me of that," said the impertur bable Quaker; "and thou wilt find me ready to confess the fault." "You said in your advertisement that 1 should hear of something to my advantage if I would come here." "Thou art mistaken," immediately respond ed the Quaker; "I only promised that thoi okniilrlof Koflf nf 'anntpfhincr tn orlunntjnorp and is it not to the advantage of a poor tail or to collect an old debt ?" "If I can catch you in the street," said th< swindler, in the deepest rage; "I'll give yoi such a thrashing as will not leave the breatl in your body." "Nonsense, now!" said the Quaker; "i thou really intendest to do anything of tha sort, we had better step out into the t>acl yard, and finish the business at once." The rogue was completely abashed by th< coolness of the Quaker, and stood speechless and almost petrified. "Now," said the tailor, good naturedly "let me give thee a piece of advice. Whei next thou hast occasion to get a suit of clothes thou hadst better not attempt to cheatthepoo: tailor, but pay him honestly; for then w il thv conscience not disturb thee, and thy sleej will be sweet and refreshing. Farewell!" There is no doubt of the literal truth o this story, as the writer received it some tiro since from the lips of the Quaker himself. A pompous individual walked up to th< office of the Stockton House, Cape May, on day, and with considerable flourish signe< the book, and exclaimed, "I'm Lieutenan Governor of ." "That don't make an; difference," said the polite clerk; "you will bi treated just as well as the others." *9* The Utica Observer says that the Clear field fair consisted of a calf, a goose, and i pumpkin. We are told that it rained so har< the nrst night that the goose swam of?. th< calf broke loose and ate the pumpkin, and i thief prowling around stole the calf, and tha ended the fair. 19* A young man on the street, beinj charged with being lazy, was asked if he tool k it from his father.

Solomon advised lazy people to go to the z l ant that they might be encouraged to go to work. From no creature could lessons of wisdom and industry be better learned than from the little ant. There are several kinds of ants, but the habits of all are the same. u In every ant nest there are three classes of ^ individuals?the females, the males and the workers. After a certain period the males i1 and females acquire wings, the workers do not. Shortly after the males have acquired wings they die, and the females, which are destined to become mothers, lose their wings. c Some of the females go out and establish new ? colonies, and others remain in the old nest. , Ants usually make their homes in the ^ ground or in old decaying timber. They are exceedingly careful oftheir young. It seems ? that a part of the tribe is appointed to act as nurses. In favorable weather, these may be v seen carrying the young ants called larva, ? into the sun and taking them back on the . return of 'evening. Whenever any accident happens which destroys the nest the nurses . never for pet to save the vounsr. ? " * ? m Y| Ants sometimes go a great distance in search of food. They have been watched running ^ along their little path for more than a quarter of a mile. Late and early they were at work. Although the path was literally alive ^ with these little laborers, no two ever got in ^ each other's way. There was no detention, ^ no quarreling, no contrariness. The motto of ^ one and all was work, and work to advant- q age. t Not only children,-but some old people & may learn lessons of wisdom from the little q ant Children and old people, too, are sometimes very contrary. They want to do as they ^ please and their way pleases no one* else. To ^ such Solomon would have said, go to the ant ^ and be wise. V * [Original.] V MOSQUITOES. j, We need not inform our readers that the mosquito is a native of this country. Every T year with the approach of summer it makes its appearance. It warns us of its arrival by a peculiar buzzing soui^ which, when fully understood, is anything else but agreeable. The mosquito belongs to a class of insects ' called dipteray that is, double-winged. Its birth place is pools of water, marshes, riven, 8 creeks or any and every place where there is 1 i m? i . 1 1 l] water, rne iemaie mosquito rays ner eggs , in some of those moist places just mentioned, 8 which are hatched by the warmth of the soil ? and atmosphere. It is not, however, a young ^ mosquito that creeps out of the shell, but a v creature that has no resemblance whatever to f it. In fact several changes have to be gone 1! through before the little creature assumes its e proper form and becomes a pest to men, wo- ? men and children. The first thing that makes 4 its appearance after the tiny egg is what is a called the larva. The word larva means mask. r It may be said of the mosquito, that in this state of its existence, it is masked or disguised. ^ During the summer months thousands of the t larva may be seen in stagnant pools. Some ^ people call.them "wiggle-tails." No doubt, 1 ' from the fact that they are continually wig- 0 gling about in the water, mostly with their c heads downward. The larva consists of nine [ segments or pieces somewhat resembliiig c joints. Each of these segments is furnisb'i: ^ with a small tuft composed- of4rsub^at^||p| which resembles hair. This tuft is called e cilia. On the eighth segment there is a small 1 tube through which the creature breathes. I The breathing apparatus is usually placed in 1 the head ; but in the larva of the future mos- 4 quito it is in the tail. This explains why ^ they come to the surface of the water tail foremost. ' The next change this little creature makes in its progress to a full grown, buzzing and 8 biting mosquito, is into the state called the c nympha. There is little difference now in its 4 general appearance from that of its former f state. In making this change it seems to 1 t have bettered its condition, however, conside- * rably. It can now move about in the water ! briskly. Whilst in the larva state the tail * was made to go foremost, now it is different 1 By contracting its tail first to one side and 4 then to the other, it throws itself forward * nrnidlv. Up to this time it breathed through 8 AW * i a tube fixed in its tail, now it breathes through 1 the same kind of an apparatus. Instead of e one tfibe, however, it has two, and instead of I being in the tail, they are in the thorax, the 8 t second segment from the head. During all * , this period of the creature's existence, it eats 4 nothing, nor can it eat anything, for it has * neither mouth nor stomach. It lives on air I ' and water. The last change is a critical one indeed in c 1 the mosquito's journey through life. This . period having arrived, the creature stretches 1 itself at full length upon the water. Soon ( the shell in which it has been living, is rent * ' along the back and the well formed and veri- 1 . table mosquito makes its first entrance into 1 ' the world above the water. Its condition is * ' that of extreme helplessness. Its legs are ^ . feeble and unable to bear its weight, and its 1 i wings are moist and unprepared, as yet, for * flight. In this condition its stands upon its 1 " old shell until its legs and wings dry, and ' then away it goes to suck the blood and dis- 1 J turb the sleep of weary mortals. All these l changes take place in the course of about one 1 month. f Mosquitos are exceedingly fond of blood, t They are provided with a sharp bill which 1 1 resembles a lancet. This they insert into the 1 flesh and suck out the blood, and at the same ' time distil into the wound a poisonous liquid 1 which sometimes causes mncn pam. i Father Knows.?A gentleman was one i day opening a box of dry goods. His little r son was standing near, and as his father took 1 the packages from the box, he laid some of 3 them upon the arm of the boy. A little friend and playmate of the merchant's son 1 f was standing by looking on. As package q after package was laid upon the arm of the i boy, his little friend began to fear his load was becoming to heavy and said: e "Johnny, don't you think you've got as b much as you can carry ?" 1 1 "Never mind," dear little Johnny answered t in a sweet, happy tone, "father knows how 7 much I can carry." < b Brave, trusting little fellow! He did not grow restless or impatient under the burden, heavy though it doubtless seemed. There was no danger, he felt that his father would lay a J load on him too heavy for him. His father knew his strength, or rather the weakness of 0 that little arm, and would not overtask it * More than all, his father loved him, and therefore could not harm him. It is such a spirit of loving trust in him , that God desires all his children to possess. \ He says: "Except ye be converted, and bee come as little children, ye shall not enter the 8 kingdom of heaven." Little Sins.?A little hole in a ship sinks y it ,* a small breach in a sea-bank carries all t away before it; a little stab in the heart kills t a man. A little drop has been many a man's ruin?every drunkard began with one glass. | Reading foe the j^ahhatb. CONDUCTED BY lti:V. ROBERT LATHAN. [Original.] THE NEW COMMANDMENT. God gave Moses the moral code which conists of ten precepts. Our Saviour said unto is disciples: "A new commandment I give nto you ?" This new commandment which be Saviour gave us is simply "to love one nother." Every precept of the law of God 5 broken by every individual member of the uman family, every momeqt of his existence; ut none is more disregarded than this new ommandment The unihristian treatment f Christians by Christian* makes the piety of bousands to be of the lowest type. The Christian world is divided into clans and ribes which cherish very little love for each ther. The object of most of us seems to be o propagate the peculiar type of piety which re possess, and to destroy every other aspect f religion. The Jews, in the days of their egeneracy, thought they, as individuals, were be only pious persons in the world. This ras especially true of the Pharisees. They bought they were right and every one else ras wrongi Unfortunately for the speedy rrtwn.1 rtf tha millpnial nerind of the church. here are many Pharisees who are not of the sed of Abraham. All Christians ought to love one another, .'hey are the sons and daughters of the same ieavenly Father. They have been bought iy the same precious blood, and quickened nto life by the same spirit. They are jourleying to the same heavenly home. All heir hopes are the same. There is one faith nd only one; there is one baptism and only ne; there is one heaven and only one. What a blessed world this would be if the ew commandment was obeyed. Many a ear would be saved; many a sigh would be ushed and sorrow would flee away. The horn and thistle would die, and our God irould bless us with peace of conscience and oy in the Holy Ghost Angels would look [own upon this world and envy the bliss rhich its inhabitants enjoy. -?-?-? [Original.] THE CHARACTER OF GOD. It is generally admitted that the belief in he existence of a Supreme Being, is natural o man. The way that this is proven, is by ,n appeal to facts. So far as history informs is, no nation of people, however degraded, las ever been found who did not worship, in ome way, something wbich by it was regarded supreme. It matters very little, so ar as the character of God is concerned, whether all men by nature are so constituted s to believe in his existence or not. There 3 do difficulty in discovering innumerable vidences of the existence of God. Intelligent men in all ages have differed respecting he character of the Supreme Being; but .bout the fact of his existence there has been 10 dispute. The character of God may be learned from tis works and out of his word. The revelaion of God's character, as exhibited in his forks, is perfect; but in our present condition t cannot be fully comprehended. The works f creation and of providence, and the word >f God do not contradict each other, in that ?od is exhibited in the two former to be a lifferent being, possessed of other and conlieting attributes, from that which he is nroI_p?J^rinj;fte latter. The Bible may IxniDitail things more clearly to view than hey are seen in the works of creation and irovidence; hut it would prove its want of livinc origin if it taught principles contradictory to those demonstrated in the works of Jod. One of the characteristics of God, as manifested in his works and claimed for him in lis word, is wisdom. There is nothing that is o insignificant as not to exhibit evidence >f wisdom in its physical structure. Every hing, from the smallest to the greatest of jrod's works, testifies that a wise artificer is ts author. The smallest insect that creeps >eneath our feet is curiously made. The rings of the butterfly are not only beautiful, >ut they afford striking evidence of consu innate wisdom in the maker. The instincts of he ant and the bee evidently were implanted >y none but by infinite wisdom. From the tructure of the bodies of animals, we may earn lessons of wisdom. Every creature was svidently made for some purpose, and all the >arts of every being admirably adapted to iccomplish that object God could say truthully on the completion of the work of creaion, that all was "very good." The whole ras complete and perfect in all its parts. No iart was wanting, and every part was finished. In the works of creation we can also dis:over the love of the Creator for the creature. Everything in creation is so constituted and irranged as to be conducive in the highest legree to the happiness of the whole. , In the leasts of the field no appetite has been implanted for which no provisions have been nade to gratify it. Moved by a love which ills the mind with wonder and astonishment, He created the ant and the bee with instincts which enable them to make ample provisions 'or winter. With admirable propriety, Solonon exhorts the sluggard to go to the ant and ae wise. The love of God for his creatures is seen in all the dispensations of providence. He garners in clouds the vapor which rises from the surface of the earth and fronputlw bosom of the great deep, and sends it down to water and refresh the earth parched by the mn. The eyes of all things look up to God for protection and support, and in due season he sends their food. God's eyes are full oi pity. He hears the groans of the dying man and pities the fallen sparrow. From the works of creation we can learn that two of th? characteristics of God an wisdom and Io7e. From the same source we may learn that God is almighty in power Human ingenuity has been puzzled to under' 3tand how the pyramids of Egypt were built Huge rocks were raised to a great height ir some way which has never been satisfactorily understood.

In the Bible we find the same at tributes ascribed to God that we see manifest ed by his works, hence we conclude that th< God of creation is the author of the Bible.
