Surprising circumstance it is,
Now at the present day,

And then forget to pay.
Now Pm obliged to sweat and toll,
And wear my strength away,
For those who, when they get tho work
Forget to bring the pay.
What vain excuses men will plead,

And many think that promises

Then they forget they owe cent,
And so will never pay.

The following is communicated bv a
worthy and venerable member of the
Friends Society:
a singular Sermon, delirered at Frank.
ford, (7enn,) By James Simpson, a
fen months before his death.
What am going to relate, is but a
simple story, and it is probable some of
you may have heard me tell it before,
but 1t has taken such possession of nv
mind, that | thought would Just drop It
Tor your consideration. When was n
young man, there lived in our neighbor-
hood Presbyterian, who was uniyer-
sally reported to be very liberal man,
and uncommonly upright in his deal
ings. When he had any produce of b;s
farm to dispose OF, he made it an invaria-
bic rule to give good measure, over good,
rather more than could be required Of
him. One of his friends observing his
frequently doing so, questioned him why
he did It-told him lie gave too much,
and said it could not be to his advan-
tage. Now, my friends, mark the an
swer of this good Presbyterian:-"God
Almighty has permitted me but one
Journey through the world, and when
gone, cannotreturn to rcctify mistakes"
Think OF this, friends; but one journey
through the world-the hours that are
past are gone forever, and the actions in
those hours are never to be recalled.
DO not throw it out as a charge nor mean
to imply that any of YOU are dishonest:
but the words of this good Presbyterian
nave often impressed my mind, and I
think in an instructive manner. But one
Journey through the world we are al
lowed but one journey: therefore let
none OF us say, "AIy tongue is my own,
III talk what please, my time is my
own, LII go where please: can 90 to
meeting, or if the world calls me. I'll
stay at home" Now this won't do.
friends. It's impossible for us to live
as we list aud then come here to wor-
ship, as 1T IS for lamprto burn without
OIL. Its utterly impossible. And was
thinking what droK.5 composition man
ls;--he IS a compound of bank notes,
dollars, cents and newspapers and bring
ing, asst were, the world on his back, he
comes mere to perform worship, or at
least to have it appear so. Now friends.
Just drop it before we part, for your
consideration. Let each one try him
self, and see how tits with his own soul.

character and esteemed sound Minis

FLOUR
Hovard street Four.-The receipts this week
are comparatively more full. Although there has
been fair demand. it has not kept pace with the
supplies, and reduction IN prices has consequent
ly followed. During the first three days OF the
week, sales Of parcels from stores were made at
SIS 624 per Bal On Thursday sales we're made
at 564 so, but chiefly at the latter price,
and one lot was sold at small fraction less. -
To-day some sales from store have been made at
5 so per brl. which price may be considered the
fair store quotation at present. The VaSon price
opened OIL Monday at so per brl. and continu-
ed at that until Wednesday On Thursday it
fell TO ST. per brI. aud the price appears to be
the ruling wagon rate to-day. Three loads have
been taken this morning at > rs, and some of the
dealers are unwilling to pay more, but the fair
rate, as we have already said, is 57a.
Ciy NILS Fyom. "A sale of 500 brls erfra
was made this week at ST.. A parcel of 800
brs standard quality was sold this week at So,
deliverable on the first Of December. We hear
of no transactions in standard for immediate de-
livery--and it Is impossible 10 give true quota

it could be obtained for less.

Although the supplies of the week
have been quite moderate. decline In prices Of
several cents per bushe has taken place, owing
to the heaviness Of the Flour market aud the IN
disposition of mllers to buy at the previously pre-

The markets. There is no alteration in the
state of the Flour or Gram Market. Another
parcel Of Alexandria Wheat has been sold at
i16a cents. Southern Flour still dull. There
is an evident unfavorable feeling in regard Cot
ton; there are no purchasers, though some par
cells are pressed on the market, showing strong
desire to seil. Coffee and Sugar quite inactive.
There is a scarcity Of money, which it IS appre
hended will increase. and to which is ATTRIBUTED
the backwardness Of dealers in mahy articles, to
buy.
