tumorous gcprtmcnt. A Nonplussed Attorney.?At the trial of a breach of promise case in Albany, N. Y., the plaintiff was a young lady of rather delicate nerves, and although, by the aid of her counsel, Hon. Lyman Tremain, her case was looking well, yet when she came to be cross-! examiued by the opposite attorney, Hon. Henry Smith, she quailed before his searching examination, and finally fell down in a swoon. The sympathies of every one were aroused, and Mr. Smith saw that he must do sofnething. The young lady's face was of a purple-red during her swoon, and so when the next witness was called, (a middle-aged lady), Mr. Smith said : "Witness, you saw the plaintiff faint a short time ago ?" "Yes, sir," said the witness. "Well, people turn pale when they faint, do they not?" The witness hesitated for a moment, then said, "No, not always." "Did you ever hear of a case of fainting where the party did not turn pale.'" "Yes, sir." "When?" "About a year ago." "Where was it ?" "In this city." "Who was it?" " ' Twas a nigger !" The plantitf won the case. Tiie Professor's Salary.?The following story is told of Prof. Snell, of Amherst: Years ago, his salary was only eight hundred dollars a year. After the war, however, when wealth began to roll in upon Amherst College, the trustees concluded to raise the salaries of the professors to twenty-five hundred dollars. Snell was sitting in his study when his wife came in to announce the good news. He was poring over a well-thumbed mathematical treatise. "Ebenezer!" said she, "what do you think? They've done it!" "Done it!" said he; "done what? who?" "Why, the trustees ; they've raised your salary to twentyfive hundred dollars a year!" Suell's face became radiant. "Thank God, Almira !" said he, "now we can have a codfish!"?Ex. ZDS?0' The following story is told in connection with one of the matrimonial agencies of Paris : One M. X. applied at an agency for an elligible spouse, aud was offered and accepted by a damsel of tweuty-seven, whose name was 011 the books. The agent, writing to the lady, told her frankly that M. X. was not an Adonis, but that he possessed more sterling qualities than beauty. At the same time he sent her a carte-de-visite of the gentleman, as he supposed, but by mistake, slipped into the envelope a vignette portrait of a t\ , -vr * * 1 iavorite ape. j>ext morning ne discovered the error; before he could rectify it, however, he received a note from the lady, saying, "1 accept the husband you offer me. It is true that he is not precisely handsome, but theu he has such a distinguished air." ? ? Pretty Good.?An Irishman, driven to desperation by the stringency of the money market and the high price of provisions, procured a pistol and took to the road. Meeting a traveler he stopped him, "Yer money or yer life!" Seeing Pat was "green," he said, "I'll tell you what I'll do?I'll give you all my money for that pistol." "Agreed." Pat received the mouoy, and handed over the pistol. "Now," said the traveler, "hand back the money, or I'll blow your brains out." "Blaze away, my hearty," said Pat, "niver a dhrop o' powther ther's in it at all." Borrowing a Frying Pan.?A soldier on picket reserve went to a fann-house, as he said, to borrow a frying pau, but for what his comrades could not imagine, as they had nothing to fry. Preferring his request to tin good dame, who answered his knock at the door, the pan was duly transferred to him. He took it, looked iu it, turned it over and looked on the bottom, and then turned it over agaiD, and looked into it very hard, as if not certain that it was clean. "Well, sir," said the lady, "can I do anything more for you ?" "Could?could?could you lend me a piece of meat to fry in it, ma'am ?" and he laughed iu spite of himself. He got it. A Fair Answer.?A clergyman was conducting a specimen exercise with a class of very young scholars, teaching a lesson of the International Series. He had been over with the little ones the story of the Israelites making brick with straw in Egypt. As he came to the oppression of Pharaoh, in demanding the same tale of bricks when no straw was supplied as before, he asked the question, "What is meant by the tale of bricks ?" At once a bright little fellow put up his hand and answered, "A piece of straw sticking out of a brick !" That certainly was a fair answer for a juvenile commentator. ?? A Decisive Tkst.?A person attending the Mardi-Gras festival of Memphis, gave out, with some empressment, that he was a Chicago Alderman. This statement having heen called in question, an official of the Phoenix City was interviewed by telegraph on the subject, accompanied by a description of the gentleman who claimed such exalted eminence. "Is he drunk or sober?" came back over the wires. "Drunk." "He's the right man, then, and is worthy your confidence," was the reply. ? In tiii: Penitentiary.?A member of the Ohio legislature recently visited the penitentiary, and while there chiseled the .State out of twenty-five cents by having his hair cut by the penitentiary barber. While undergoing the tonsorial process, a party of lady and gentlemen visitors looked in, and Mr. Blake was made happy by catching such remarks as "Ugly look about the eye3," "Vicious mouth," "Looks capable of any wicked- j ness," "Wonder what he did ?" etc. PIis Time.?Said a member of the Mississippi Legislature: "Mr. Speaker! Mr. Speaker ! Mister Speaker! ain't I 'titled to de fio', sah ? I got up, sah, next after Mr. Smith, who was next after Mr. Johnson, who was next after Mr. Brown, who came next to Mr. Burrus, who was next to Mr. Bates, who was next to Mr. Ball, who was next to Mr. Blue, who was next to Mr. Barclay, sah, and have stood here until they all got through turnabout, and now it's my time." The Best Part of Tiiem.?North Adams has a tailor long known for his keen, pungent wit. Not long since a well-known clergyman called at his shop with a pair of pantaloons, and asked him if they could be repaired. The knight of the shears unrolled them, held them up in a most artistic manner, carefully examined them, and replied, "Yes, yes ; the knees are the best part of them." The reverend geutleman saw the joke, smiled blandly, and gracefully bowed himself out. 4 A newspaper clerk some time ago sold fifty papers to a negro, who promised faithfully to pay for them very soon. The other day the clerk encountered and dunned him. "Look here, you freedman, when are you going to pay for those papers ?"

SSf A lady having the good fortune to have her husband hang himself on an apple tree, the wife of a neighbor immediately came to beg a branch of that tree, to have it grafted into one in her orchard. "For who knows," says she, "but it may bear the same kind of fruit." ? ? fttaT" "What comes after T ?" asked a teacher of a small pupil who was learning the alphabet.

Some children think that it is smart to give impudent answers, and to say impudent things to strangers. This is a fearful mistake. When a stranger asks a little boy or girl a question, and receives an inpudent reply, he concludes that the child is the offspring of low and degraded parents. If is easier to be 1 polite than to be impudent. By politeness ; we make ourselves friends; by impudence we cause people to look upon us with feelings of disgust. A smile is much easier made than a frown. The former draws friends to ; us; the latter drives them awav. [Original-] GOOD MANNERS. Iu our journey through life, there is nothing that is of so much real value to us as good ' manners. The ability to conduct ourselves with ease and propriety, iu all kinds of society, is worth more than gold. The individual who has made this attainment, can wend his way through this world comfortably with very little property; and the individual who has not made it, to some considerable degree, will find this a troublesome world, no matter how much he is worth in money. The first thing to be attended to iu order to make this noble acquisition, is to conduct ourselves kindly toward every one. It costs nothing to speak in a gentle tone to every one we meet. This may seem to be a very small thing ; but is the base of one of the noblest fabrics in the world. A smile wins for us the good will, if not the love, of all with whom we come in contact, and a frown drives every one from us. We have high authority for saying, that "a soft answer turneth away wrath." The contrary is true. Nothing is clearer than that a harsh word makes foes bitter and uncompromising. It is a part of good manners to advocate our own opinions with gentleness, and pay due respect to the sentiments of others. Even if we are absolutely sure that our opinions are correct, and the opinions of others wrong, the worst way that we could take to correct the errors of others, is by abusing them. No man likes to be called a fool, and every man will hate the individual that does it. If good manners consist in any one thing more than in another, it is in gentleness. [Original.] SPIRIT. It is said that a spur in the head is worth more than two on the heel, or one on both heels. It takes more than muscles and braius to make a successful man. That boy who wants spirit, 110 matter how strong or how smart he may be, will never be anything but a drone. He may be as strong as an ox, but if he is lazy, his strength will not advantage him much. A spirited individual of small body and weak muscles, will do more work in a month than a lazy giant will do in a year. A boy may be gifted by nature with good intellectual endowments, but be destitute of the pluck that prompts him to try. Such a boy will soon find that he is left by his spirited classmates. Such a boy will find all through life that he is behind, and every thing goes wrong for him. Some boys get into a spiritless way of doing things that sticks to them for life. They drawl out their words when talking or reading, as if they were afraid the syllables or words would fight I if they got close together. When they walk they drag along as if they were sick. They set their feet down on the ground as if they were afraid they would hurt the ground, and when they get their feet on the ground they raise them so slowly that one would think they had a heavy weight suspended to them. They talk slow, ,.alk slow, work slow, play slow, and think slow, and are slow all over. All that such boys need, is spirit; they have contracted a slow way of doing everything, which if not broken up, will increase on them as they grow old. HONESTY. One day the Duke of Buccleuch, a Scotch nobleman, bought a cow in the neighborhood of Dalkeith, in the neighborhood of where he lived. The cow was to be sent home the next morning. Early the next moruiug the Duke was taking a walk in a very common dress. As he went along, he saw a boy trying in vain to drive a cow to his residence. The cow was very unruly, and the poor boy could not get on with her at all. The boy, not knowing the Duke, bawled out to him in a broad Scotch accent: "Aie, mun come here, an' gie a han' wi' this beast." The Duke went slowly on, not seeming to notice the boy, who still kept calling for his help. At last, finding he could not get along with the cow, he cried out in distress: "Come here, mun, an' as sure as ony thing I'se give ye half I get." The Duke went and lent a helping hand. "And now," said the Duke, as they trudged along after the cow, "how much do you think you will get for the job ?" "I diuna ken," said the boy, "but I'm sure o' something, for the folks at the big house are guid to a bodies." As they came to a lane near the house the Duke slipped away from the boy aud eutered by a different way. Calliug the butler, he put a sovereign into his hand, saying : "Give that to the boy that brought the cow." He then returned to the end of the lane, where he had parted from the boy, so as to meet him on his way back. "Well, how much did you get ?" asked the Duke. "A shilling," said the boy, "and there's half o' it to ye." "But surely you had more than a shilling," said the Duke. "No," said the boy, "sure that's a' I got; and d'ye no think it plenty?" "I do not," said the Duke ; "there must be some mistake ; and as I am acquainted with the Duke, if you will return I think I'll get you more." TU. !.? knll x nuj vtuiit uuvtt. x uu iuh^ tuv> uvu and ordered all the servants to be assembled. "Now," said the Duke to the boy, "point out the person who gave you the shilling." "It was that chap there wi' the apron," said he, pointing to the butler. The butler fell on his knees, confessed his fault and begged to be forgiven ; but the Duke indignantly ordered him to give the boy the sovereigu and quit his service immediately. "You have lost," said the Duke, "your money, your situation, and your character, by your deceitfulness ; learn for the future that honesty is the best policy. The boy now found out himself who it was that helped him to drive the cow; and the Duke was so pleased with the honesty aud manliness of the boy that he sent him to school and provided for him at his own expense. Helping a Brother in Teourli:.?A swallow got his leg fastened in a piece ol string, the ball of which was fastened on the roof of a tall house. His cries and flutterings I brought a great crowd of his bird-kin. After j sitting together 011 the roof, as if consulting about it, they began to fly at the string, one I at a time.

Notwithstanding tlio fact that the creeds of the pious differ so much from each othci in many instances, the heart sentiments of all the truly godly are alike. Their hopes and their fears, their joys and their sorrows, arc the same. The object of their faith is t he same Jesus, and all their cares and trouble! and anxieties end in joy and peace in him. God in Christ Jesus is all in all to all pious men. Christ crucified is the chiefcst among ten thousand and the one altogether lovely to every traveler to the New Jerusalem.

The means of grace are the same in all sections of the world. There is one God and one Saviour, Jesus Christ, and one sanctifier, the Holy Ghost., One faith, one baptism, and one heaven, and all the pious are Christ's and Christ is God's. Christ and God are one, and the prayer of the Saviour is that believers may be one, even as he aud the father are one. . ... * ? ? ? [Original.] INTEMPERANCE. The wide spread misery which is daily inflicted upon our country by the abuse of intoxicatingspirits, is, to all humane individuals, distressing. In what we have to say upon this subject we desire to be truthful. We have no desire to run into extremes. In itself, or as the learned would say, the simple use of intoxicating liquors is not per se, a sin, neither are we prepared to say that drunkenness is the greatest of all sins. The proper use of anything cannot be a sin, aud the irreverent use of God's name is a more heinous sin in the sight of God than beastly drunkenness. Drunkenness is, however, a sin, and a most heinous transgression against both God and man. Perhaps there is no sane man who would deny this statement. The drunkard himself feels that by his habit of drinking, he is sinning against himself, against society, and against the God of heaven. He is aware that he is bringing upon himself infamy and shame, and inflicting upon the innocent members of society much misery ; and if he has been raised in a Chris"? * 11- V I * 1 tiau community, and nau ms mum srorcu with Bible sentiments, lie l'eels that he is jeopardizing his soul. The evils of imtemperaiice are too glaring not to be seen by every one, and it is a cause of lamentation that these evils are so common as to be felt by nearly every member in society. An old Greek philosopher said long ago, that drunkenness is a minor madness, Really, it seems to partake of the nature oi insanity. One of the characteristics of the insane is to fear what is harmless, and rush headlong into the midst of imminent danger, It is not meant that drunkards are all intellectual dwarfs, or uncultivated monsters, For, although, intellectual imbecility and barbarous monstrosity, are the almost invariable results ordrunkeuness, still, multitudes, possessed of the most brilliant minds and favored with the most refined culture, are on the broad road that leads to a drunkard's grave. Drunkenness may be attributed to a multitude of causes; hut it clearly has its origin in man's sinful nature. It is one of the works of the devil. The taste for intoxicating liquors is an acquired one; hut when once the habit is formed, it is barely possible to break it up. Reformed drunkards are exceedingly scarce. The abating of the evils of intemperance is worthy of the efforts of the philosopher, the statesman and the Christian. Drunkenness / saps the foundation of society in all its phases, as well as retards the progress of the i i n r\ i Ti _ a i _ _ 1 __ x ? | cnurcn 01 urou. ns tendency is not simpiy tu I drive godliness from the land, and shut men out of the kingdom of heaven ; but it also drives peace and quiet from the world and destroys the brightest trophies and rarest triumphs of civilization. The heart sickens at the bare contemplation of the ravages of j iutemperance. The catalogue of its attendI ant crimes is endless. That drunkenness is common in our coun| try at this time will be admitted by every one. ! It docs not matter whether it is more general j than at any previous period in our history or ! not. The fact is clear that drunkenness exi ists, and it is causing much distress, grief and agony of both soul and body. The question then, is, can this evil be abated ? Surely it can. There will be, no doubt, drunkards as j long as the world lasts; but certainly their ; number may be greatly reduced. Drunkenj ness, it is firmly believed, is the work of the j devil, and drunkards are so far under the control of the devil. How, then, is this work of Satan to be destroyed, his schemes defeated and his captives ransomed ? We answer, by 1 the grace of God. The individuals by whom, j as instruments in the hands of the Holy I Spirit, the good work is to be accomplished, | arc God's professed people of every name, j All that is necessary in order to abate this ; evil is for God's people earnestly and importunately to plead with God that this work of the destroyer of souls may be abandoned. The making men sober and the abolishing of inebriety, is the work of the Holy Spirit, j Without the sustaining and sanctifying power of the Iioly Spirit, any man may become a I drunkard. Sustained and supported by that Spirit, every man will live a sober life, God grants his Spirit to them that ask it. Not ' only does he grant his spirit to the individual asking it, but he hears prayer in behalf of others, and grants them blessings. The people of God can, if they will, live and pray j drunkenness out of the land. All they have ' to do is to live sober lives and to pray that . others may do so too. The granting of such a petition would advance God's declarative glory, and be conducive to the good of thousands of the human family. For this reason Christians are warranted in praying to God that lie would abate this evil, and they have a right to look up and expect an answer to their prayer. Shall God's thoughts be surpassed by man's thoughts? God's giving by man's asking? Clod's creation by man's imagination? No. Let us climb to the height ol our Alpine desires ; let us leave them behind us and ascend the spear-pointed Ilimtnalays of our aspirations; still shall we find the depths of God's sapphire above us ; still shall we find the heavens higher than the earth, and his thoughts and his ways higher than . our thoughts and our ways. . , ... ? ? s &/)" The relations of Christians to each othci i are like the several flowers in a garden thai ' have upon each the dew of heaveu, which be; ing shaken by the wind let fall the dew at >: each other's roots whereby they are jointly - nourished, and become nourishers of one another.?BiMyan.
