{ Talents IN a Napkin.-A gentleman once in

youth of great promise, and as likely to do hon

''but he is shy" added the father, and idle, and

Hill, sat all the corners and there is nothing In

Useful custom-At Munich there prevails a
singular custom. Every child found begging in
the streets is arrested and carried to charitable
moment he enters the hospi-
tai, and before he is cleaned, and gets the new
clothes intended for him, his portrait is painted
in his ragged dress, and precisely as he was
found begging. When his education is finished
in the hospital, this portrait is given to him, and
he promises by an oath to keep it all his life, in
order that he may be reminded of the abiect con-
dition from which he had been rescued, and of the
obligations he owes to the institution, which saved
him from misery, and gave him the means by
which he was enabled to avoid it in future.
A Roman Catholic priest making one day a
tedious sermon in praise Of saint, in the heat Of
his dlcourse asked with great emotion "Where
shall l place my saint?" A wit, who happened tc
be one OF his auditors, and tired of the preach
ing cried out in loud voice, "Here, sir, you
may have my room for him. for l shall stay nc
longer"
Observation-Disclosures the late Marquis oil

not promote merit? "Why" cried the Marquis.

of his discourse on small slips Of paper, which he
placed on the bible before him, to be used in sue
cession. One day, when he was explaining the
second head, he got little warm in the harness,
and came down with such thunp upon the Bi-
BILE with his hand, that the ensuing slip fell over
the edge of the pulpit though unperceived by him
self. On reaching the end of his second head,
he looked down for his third slip; but alas! ii
was not to be found "ThirdIy," he cried, look
ing round him with great anxiety After little
pause" Thirdly" again he exclaimed, but still
no thirdly appeared. "1'hirdly, l say, my breth-
gen." pursued the bewildered clcrgy lyman; but no.
another word could he utter. At this point,
while the congregation were partly sympathizing
in his distress, and partly rejoicing in such de-
cisive instance of the improperly of using notes
in preaching, which has always been an unpopu-
lar'hing in the Scotch clergy, an old woman rose
up and thus addressed the preacher eff Pm
