The Pin and the Needle.
A. pin and a needle being neighbors
in a work basket, and both being idle
began to quarrel, as idle folks are apt
to do.
"I should like to know," said the
pin, "what you are good for, and how
you expect to get through the world
without a head?"
"What is the use of your head," rcJdied
the needle, rather sharply, "if you
uive no eyes ?"
"What is the use of an eve,' said the
pin, "if there is always something in
it r
"I am always active, and can go
throught more work than you can,"
said the needle.
"Yes, but you will not li e long ?"
"Why not i"
""Becauseyou have always a stitch
in your side," said the pin.
"You're a |?oor crooked creature,"
said the needle.
"And you are so proud that }*ou
cau't bend without breaking vour1
back."
"I'll pull j'our head olY if 3*011 insult
mc again."
"I'll put out your eye if you touch
me; remember 3*our life hangs on a
single thread," said the pin.
While the3* were thus conversing, a |
little girl entered, and, undertaking to j
sew, she very soon broke of the needle !
at the eye. Then she tied the thread
around the neck of the pin, and at j
tempting to sew with it, t>he pulled it* !
head oti, and threw it into the dirt by
the side of the broken needle.
"Well, here we are,', said the needle.
"We have nothing to fight about
now," said trie pin.
"It seems misfortune has brought us
to our sensee."
"A pity we bad not come to tliem
sooner," said the needle.
. "How much we resemble human beings,
who quarrel about their blessings
till they lose them, and never find out
that they are brothers til they lie down
in the dust together, as we do."
Count Them.
Count whati Why count the mercies
which have been quietly tailing in
your path through every period of your
history. Down tliey coine, every morning
and every evning as angel messengers
from the Father of liglit, to tell of
your best Friend in heaven. Have
you lived these years, wasting mercies
treading thcin beneath your feet, and
consuming them every day and never \

but who has heard you rejoice'

these morc'm*? Ask tbe sub beam, the

What is health, strength, friendship,

just as well pluck sweet flowers, and
eat pleasant fruits I Yet we have seen
enough of men to know that they have
a morbid appetite for thorns. If they
have lost a friend they will mnrmnr at j
the loss, if God has given them a score <
of new ones. Aud somehow, everything
assumes a value vrlicu. it is flpne,
which man would not acknowledge
when he had it in his possession, unless
indeed, some one wished to purchase
it.
IIappy is he who looks at the bright
side of life, of providence, and of rev- <
elation. Who avoids thorns, and
thickets and slonghs, until his chris
tian growth is such that if ho cannot
improve them, he may pass among
them without injury. Count mercies
beforo you comolain of afflictions. i

''Niggora" vs. White Folks.
Dklta, the New York correspondent
of the Cincinnati jLnquirer, writes i
the following:
Last Sunday the Rev. Mr. Beecher.
after the sermon, brought up a good
looking mulatto girl in his pulpit and
made ft speech over her, in which ho
got the women all crying, and so magnitized
the men as to get Ids hand into
their pockets. He told n pitiful story i
about the girl being 6old into 'slavery"
and her becoming the victim, of the
tust of some Ilaley, and all snob horrible
stories, and said ho most lulvc
the casli on the spot. The men under
the impulse of the moment, emptied,
their purses on the contribution plates,
and 'Sarah, was bought out of'slavery, i
to have her virtue put to the test by
beingfree to do as she pleases. But is
it not a strange and indeed a pitiful
sight to see a whole congregation of
white people dissolved into tears over
such stories. The women present, who
were so mnch excited over the possible
fato of this iculatto girl?an evidence
herself of sin and beastliness of the
lowest description?think, nothing of
the positive fate of t wentv thousand of
their own sisters?their flesh and blood
?who, within the sound of tho hell of
Plymouth Church are every ten j^ears
going dow to graves of sin* pollution
and rottenness. When in the name of
Heaven, will the interests of the white (
race again becoming as important as
those of the black? A white person ,
has to exert himself tremendously now
a days to be as good as a nigger.'

"And will you be so kind as to rade

"To l>e sure, sir," said the accommodating
postmaster.
He opened tho eristic and rpad,
with a good deai ofuiincuiiy, three interesting
pages concerning Dennis
folks and ailuirs in old Ireland, the

the same side of the saddle, listened
all the while with becoming meekness
and gratitude.

A SlXOl I.AK Pit ay Kit.?On tlie eve
?t 1 he battle of Btteiin Vista, while o?u>
vuiiaiii in tie army of lour thousand
was anxiously awaiting the approach
nt Santa Anna ami Ins forces, a tall
Jonathan Slickical sj>ecimen ot the
New England horao, having become
frightened at the idea of fighting five
to one, sneaked behind a stump and
offered up the following prayer :
"Oh, Lord! wo arc rImhU to engage
in an awful battle. Santa Anna, with
his wooden leg, and an army livo times
as largo as wo are, law conic against us;
but with the help of Thy all-powerful
hand, \rc will scatter the enemy as
wheat is scattered by tbe band of the
sower. Wilt thou nssist us, O, Lord!
to do this 1 But, O, Lord, if you can't
help us, don't for Heaven*8 sake lielj:
them. Keep cool, and wo will show
you some of the gosh darndest fighting
yon have ever seen. Amen."
"Have you heard that story about
number 288?" inquired the facetiout
Mr. C. addressing his fun loving neigh
bor 11.
"No, I have not," replied B., "let
us have it."
"It is too gross," remarked C., hesitatingly.
"Oh, never mind, I can stand ; lei
me have it, by all means," eagerly exclaimed
B.
"I tell yon it is too grose."
"All tbe better, it will just snit me;
i like gucii jokes; just shut the dooi
there and let me ' ?
"Can't do that, tor G. stands there
listening to hear me sell you."
"Well, if you're going to sell me, J
should like to know how you're going
to do it. Let's hear what your 288 is
that's too gross."
"You have heard it twice already,
replied 0., with a grin. I tell vou 2?>8,
being twice 144, is two gross."

IN issuing the Prospectus of the twrofjrsecond

the iiigh character of the work, and
chalcnge the patriotism of all who value sterling
literary merit. For Twenty one years

been alone among the monthly periodicals
of America in defence of the peculiar Institutions

our eueinies arc employing literature aa their
most potent weapons of attack, the Southern
pe ?p!o will surely not withhold their encouragement
from a work whoeo aim it shall
be to t-trike blows in their defence.
The Messenger will, as heretofore, present
its readers with Reviews, Historical
and Biographical Sketches, Novels, Travel,.
