My wife was (-itting inside the i house, near the door, the children wore < playing about her, and I was without, near the house, busied in doing some- 1 thingvt? m wagon*-when suddenly, though it war mid day, an enormous < lion appeared, came up, and laid hi in- i aelfitlown in the shade,.upon the threshold of" the door. My wife, eft per frozen with fear, of * ware of the danger, | attending any attempt to-fly, remained .1 motionless in her place, while the chit- I .1 u a iik T>? . tlicil luuk iriiign in Bfr ?1J(. 4 11*1 CIV I I hey uttered* nltratled my at tent ion, atid I 1 hastened towards the door; but my i Astonishment may be well conceived, t wheu I found the entrance to it barred i in such it way. Although the animal i had not seen me, unarmed as I was, es- t cape seemed impossible, vet 1 glided genfly, scarcely knowing ihat I meant I to do, to the side of the house, up to ! tho window of my chamber, where 1 < knew iny loaded gun waa standing. < I3y a most fortunate chance I had set < it in the corner close to the window, ao I that I could reach 1t with my hand ; for < as you may perceive, the opening is too ? email to admit my having got in; and still more fortunately, the door of ? the room was open, ao that I conld see < the whole dangi-r of the scene. The I bon was beginning to move, perhaps | with the intention of making a *pring < There was no longer time to think ; 1 1 called softly to the mother not lo be 1 alarmed and Invoking the name of the Lord, fired my piece. The ball passed I over n>y boy's head, and lodged in the ' forehead of the lion, immediately above bis eyes, which shot forth as sparks of fire, and stretched him on the grofind, 4 so that he never stirred more." Indeed. I we all shuddered as we li-tcnod to this ' relation. Never, as he himself observ* r ed, was a more dangerous attempt haz ' arJed. Had he failed in his aim. moth* 1 er add children were all inevitably lost; r if the boy had moved, he bad been " struck; the least turn in (be lion, and c lire shot bad not been mortal to liiin. c To have taken aim at him without, was impossible; while the shadow of any 1 one advancing in the bright sun would v have betrayed Ljin. To consummate 1 the wjioje, the head of the creature was 'j jn some soi t j>fvff.cled bv tho door post.

" VV-eli, my dear sister I{oger?," said <5 Mhe venerable examiner, addressing our "vcnersWe friend, "pli-juo relate your A ^experience."

Mr. Kegel*, her husband, rose to bis l feet and said: " I've been bearing it all, sir, but It's news to me !" ? Iler exi lenre, however, was admitted without the endorser, and she waa taken in. \t a Sunday school in Tuscola three iittl<> girls repeated four hundred and seventy-three verses of Scripture ?

Tbe bog, in its domestic state, ie the nosi s sordid and brutal animal in naure. The awkwardness of its form eein-s to influence its appetites, and all la sensations are as gross as its shape is nftMghtly. It seems possessed onlv of an insatiable de-ire of eating; and ?eem? to make choice only of what other animals And the most offensive. By .nature, it is the most stupid, inactive, and drowsy ; if undisturbed, it would sleep half its time; but it is fre; rpien'.ly awakened by the calls of appetite, which, when it had eatisfied, it.goes to rest again, its wbo'e life is thus a round of nlpcn dirt nlnllnnu ?, 0 ?-?r | plied with sufficient food, ii toon grow* unlit even for its ow n existence; it* flcf.li becomes a greater load than its leg* are ible to support, and il continue* to feed lying down or kneeling, a lielple** in lance of indulged sen*ua)ily. Most of the disease* of (Ids aniiual arise from intempemnco;.measles, post h time* and scrofulous swellings, are reckoned among ibe number. The fle?h of swine was expressly forbidden to the Jews, by the Levitical law, (Lev. xi. 7) on account of it* tilihy character, a* some think, a* well n* be:au*e the flesh, being strong and ditfi:ult to digest, afi'oided a very gross kind of alimeut, and was apt to pro Jncecu'.aneous, scorbutic and scrofulous lisorders, especially in hot climate*. Maimonides say*, "The principal tea on wherefore the law prohibited the iwine wa*. because of their extreme filthine**, and their eating so many impurities; for it is well known with what care and precision the law forbids all Mildness ami dirt, even in the field* and in the camp, not to mention the citius. Now, had swine been permitted, the p;?l>lic plaee?, and street*, and house*, would nave been made nuisances." Jr? the time of IsHiah, (chap. Ixv. 4) lie ea.'ng of swine's flesh is enumorald among -he abominations that had leen adopt* d by the tlegenern'e lie brews; and K,*'r punishment is dolounced in the u"*1 chapter.

The tnore dangerous act of iinpru ence with its fatal re-nlt, is placed lirsl nd last, so as to make and to leavfc he deepest practical impression. To nst pearls before -wine, is to place (lie ore and elevated morality of the gos?l before sensual and besotted wretches. To give that which is holy to the og?, is to produce the deep truths of llirutianity before the malignant an I irofane, who will not fail to add injury o neglect?who will not only hate the iiKimie, oui persecute Hie teacher.

Ilow futile often are our endeavors to secure a happy, prosperous, or independent future for those we leave behind ns. In fact, it often seem* that extreme caution in this regard defeats itself. The best legacy to children is Self rielp; bank stock Is nothing to it. That may take wings ; hut the energy to v hieh disaster-is only an incentive to effort, that is of h?elf a fortune. Wo look with tender eyes upon those we love, and sigh to think we may, perchance, not be on the shore when they launch their little barks, for getting Him who holds the winds in Ills hands and regards the fall of the sparrow.
