SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.

When / was at Turn in 1880 says the
Rev. Mr.. Dutens, the following scene passed
in e church. 1t was the beginning Of Feb
ruary, when the days are short, a very
popular preacher, who was accustomed to
give sermons of an enormous length, expa-
tiated one day after dinner SO long on his
aubject, which was repentance, that he had
trespasscd full hour in the night. before
he had included. Scarcely had he finished,
when one of his audience raised his voice
and requested to be heard. All listened;
and the stranger continued, that the holy
mans pathetic discourse had made so lively
an impression upon him, who WAS misera-
BILE sinner, that he had forthwith resolved
entirely to change his course OF life; and TO
give sincere proof Of his contrition, he would
instantly, before all the congregation, freely
confess his crimes He then declared him
self to be an advocate oy profession, and
opeGly avowed that he had abused the con
fidence of his clients, and told their secrets,
and sacrificed their interests to 1.-THE adverse
party; he acknowledged himself to be a
faithless husband, bad father, and an un.
grateful son; and having followed this uI
with an enumeration of various offences he
had committed, he offered, he said the
last proof of sincerity in declaring his name
and concluded by saying he was such an ad
vocate, living in such place. Immedatel,
another voice was heard from another par
of the church, calling out that the penten
was an impudent lmposter; that he was th
advocate named, and that he could not re
proach himself With any of the faults so ca
iumniously imputed to him. He besough
the audience to secure the villain; but i
vain, for the mischievous wag had slippe
away during the moment OF surprise whe
the real advocate began to speak; and not
withstanding the most diligent inquiry, wa
never discovered.
