Newspaper Page TextAnecdotes of a Western Pioneer. A very pious, yet rather eccentric mnn, a Mr. P , was remarkable for hi? trust iu God in all tho a Hairs of thia life, and bis strong leaning to tho old Puiitan sentiment, particular Juith in prayer.? 8ome circumstances in tho life of this man would seem to provo that in special ami rare cases the particular mercies sought for may bo granted. On removing from his native country to tho West, Mr. P. awl soino others made a purchase of land and paid the money. It was soon discovered that tlip eeltor wns not tlio owner, ar.<1 consequently that the title wns worthless, and tho money lo*t. Mr. P.'s loss wns greater than he could well bear. The other purchasers had j rocourso to law, and advised him also to " employ counsel."' "I have read in the Bible of a wonderful Counsellor," was the faint reply, "and my application shall bu to j biro." lie thereupon made it a matter of < earnest and repeated prayer; not, wo pr>> sumc for a specific restitution of the money, ; but that by pome providential interference | this serious loss m'ght bo made up to him, j or that he might be duly reconciled to it, ' and eventually none the woist fjr it. The J prospect of a specific nnswor was v.-iv small, for the man who obtained the monev had ndscondod both from the neighborhood ' and from his family. But as Mr. P , j was passing near this man's house some- j time after, a child running up to him bagged him to come in. As he did so, the ; wife handed him tho identical bag which J contained the identical dollars, explaining i I JlA Kt rn nnri? ??#. >/ >>? " > ?- ' "When my luisband wont away, ho i charge J nie to c:v<? (his money to yon, for. j said lu*, I'm afraid the man will pray me to j death." Thus Mr. P.'s wish was gaineJ ; flu- i others, it is said, never got anything. Another instance, more mltsiitc i ' _ i therefore more to tho point, wo tak*: from ! ono of his letters. Mr. P ? ? > i timo a poor student of divinity, and Li- ! courao of study having greatly lessened hi- j means of living, ho regarded with mort!.'i<*n- j tion bis napless worn-out hat, not fit lo ap pear at Presbytery. But as it was of sufiicient importance to give him concern, it was a fit subject for prnj'er, and so he write"; to his wife as follows:?' In retirement for ppecial prayer yesterday, the Lord let me talk familiarly with him about many things, i particularly about a hat, and he made williogly to go Presbytery with my old one. I j came away with a pleasant hope, and well j pleased with his government, nnd this day j there was one bought for a guinea, sviH to j me a present by ' A. L.'" A _ 1 * a scuooi master m.iv with all dignify ! pray for tlic prosperity <>f his pchool ; and he may make mention of the lost pen-knife, without which he cannot mend tlie children's pens. " For want of a rail tho shoe was lost, for want of a shoe the hnrso was crippled ; the messcuger was delayed, ar.d the city obliged to surrender." It was a backwoods settlement, and his tlio only p?*nknife in it j if the knife was not found, tinpens could not ho made, the writing must stop, and the school must break up. Mr. P carried his trouble to the accustomed place, and spread it out in plain terms, a last resource, for it bad be? 11 buntad up and down to no purpose. Truly nil the searching in the world will not find it, for it lies buried under the winter's snow, along some rend or bridle-path, dropped first and snowed on afterwards. What thereupon happened might indeed have happened without prayer, and it might n?.t. As he was riding along, the hot.?e's hoof, lifting up a cake of snow, turned up something else while a slight jingle. It was an answer to his requests. This same Mr. P . the man of prayer, was also remarkable for fearles-nesa in doing what ho judged to be duty. One an eodole among many which might be to!.I, will suffice. As regularly appointed distributor of the Bible along the landings of a western city, ho was of course subjected to much expense, and as his own means | Were limited, lie was obliged to make coilfctions where he could to defray the charges* I'd such a cause, then in its infancy in the West, he felt as if he had a claim on any citizen who could spare a dollar. In one of these collecting rounds ho was met by an acquaintance, who saluted him thus : u Well, father P , what errand are yon on to-day ?" M I'm going to the man who keeps {.tore orer there, to get a dollar for my Bible distribution!" " Why, certainly you would not go to such a man as that; an open infidel, and a scoffer.; you'll not get a cent from him ?" "Yea, I will; I'll get a dollar; come long and see." Tber walked in'" ' m ...? tun m.uru me oici gentleman wm not welcome from tbo first, but upon opening bis request was treated with jfceitive scorn.

Some people! irlose their shutters against it. Geoige III, ' Consulted his household physicians' scperntely, as to the modes of life condm ive to ; health and longevity; as to thu importance , of caily rising, there was full coincide nee.? i D!d people, examined as to the cause of tho'r j longevity' all ague tout I hey have been in ! the hahit of tfoing to bed early. In debilitated people, a decree of fever, or something resembling it, corner on towards evening; Cjoing very early to bed is of great consepience to them. Rising an hour or two L-arlier than usual often gives a vigor which nothing else can produce. Manv people, at ivaking, feel a disposition to rise; they lose it by indulging a lethargic state, or lolling iwhile. Wo lose vigor by lying in bed in lealth, longer than for sleep; the mind is ess tranquil; the body is less disposed lor efreshingsleep; appetite and digestion nre essoned. After long or late mental exerion sleep is a watch; the thoughts continue ihemselves, effecting useless fatigue. Some people cannot go to sleep ; others wake loo arly. Without spirit to rise, they hope to ind refreshment in an additional nap; anither, and an another, leaves them more languid ; they fancy themselves unfit for exertion until they have taken a breakfast, vliicli tlioy make no effort to merit. Nolh- j up breaks up the strength sooner than want j if'bleep at the hour nature obviously designed or repose, marked, as well by the regular eturn of day and night, as by our own feeing*, if not prevented by artificial habits.? ?abor, which is light in the day, is burhensome in the night. The accumulated timuli of the day are sufficient for the terntornry exhaustion of the system : the rest of ight is requisite to recruit us for each sucessive day.
