A THANKSGIVING STORY.

" Come Charles, my son." said Deacon
Allwolthy, "take one of them turkeys, and
carry itup toparson Moody for Thanksgiv-
ing"
d" No father, l don't do that again, I tell
you"
"Whst DO I hear now, Charles These
five and-twenty years have sent the par
son turkey, and Joe has carried them, and
Tenn, without ever before refusing. What's
the matter nowl''
"Why, father, he never thanked me for
bringing it TO him, besides, he took me to
DO awhile ago, because started out of meet
lngtoo soOn."
"Well, son, you know it is the custom
for minister to 60 out before any of the
congregation starts; this is done as a mark
OF respect"
"Respecs or not, he's nothing but man,
and as for creeping 70. him won't do it,"
"Well, let it all pass, and carry him the
turkey, and If he don't thank you | will"
Charles shouldered the fowl, and in a
short time was at the house of the minister,
whe was seated in the parlor surrounded by
number OF friends who had come TO pass
thanksgiving with him. The lad entered
without knocking, and bringing the turkey
from his shoulder heavily upon the table,
said, "Mr. Moody, there is turkey faith
er sent to you; if you want lit, you may
have it-if you don't, I'll carry it back a.
gam"
al shall be very glad Of it," said the
minister, "but I think you might learn lit
tie manners. Charles, can't you dc an er-
rand better I"
"How would you have me to do 4"
said Charles.
"Sit down in my chair," said the parson,
- and will show you"
Charles .oek the chair, while the divine
took the turkey and left the room. He
soon retrrned--took off his hat, and made
a very low bow, and said-Mr. Moody,
here is turkey which my father sent you,
and wishes yOu TO accept Of it as pres
ent."
Charles rose from his seat, and took the
fowl, and said to the minister, " 1t is very
fine turkey, and feel very grateful to your
father for it. In this and numerous other
instances, he has contributed to my happi-
ness. If you'll just carry it into the kitch-
en- and return again, will send to Mrs.
Moody to give you half dollar"
The parson walked out Of the room--his
friends laughed at the joke, and made up a
purse for the lad who ever afterwards re.
ceiyed a reward for his services.

old ObigGtion.-The Duke of Rogue
laure was one of those who, as Madame
Sevigue says, " abuse the privilege that the
men have to be ugly" Accidently finding
at court very ugly country gentleman, who
had suit to offer, the duke presented him
to the king and urged his request, saying he
was under the highest obligations to the
gentleman. The king granted the request;
then asked Roquelaure what where those
great obligations. "Ah sir, if it were
not for him, should be the very ugliest
man in your dominions. This sally excited
the royal smile, while the gentleman, with
plain good sense, affected not to hear it.

The nations wreath Is lit with stars,
A bright and glorious number;
Aad DER them Freedom q eagle keeps
A watch that knows no slumber.
In every gem that garland bears,
Fair beauty hath dwelling;
Yet beams old MAssAcHusErTs' star,
With lustre fer excelling.
A halo gilds Virginia . name,

New York hath Saratoga's fame, Il
And Jersey, Monmouth glory;
Points Delaware to Brandywine,
And La Fayette, the finger;
And still Ger Cardinals fields
Doth Eutaw's memory linger.
Vcrmont9ma boas. Of Bennington,
And Pennsylvania wonder
Ger unforgotten Valley Forge,
And Red Banks fatal thunder.
But o, t is Massachusetts tells
Ut Bunker's fame, ne 'er ending,
And guards their dust who earliest died,
Their Unborn rights defending.
Az; on her 'scutcheon, blazoned high,
Read Lexingtcn's invasion
Where cannon-peal and rolling drum
To freedom woke nation
Those messy walls, whence death-shots fell,
Like hail, upon the foeman,
Speak prouder things than Grecian fanes.
More glorious than the Roman!
They heard the knell Of Britain's power,
When first in thunder given;
They first caught freedoms 'larum-cry,
And echoed it to heaven
They saw the bloody fountain ope,
To seal her priceless charter;
And heard the latest anguished prayer
OF Freedom earliest martyr.
Time.honored Massachusetts, thou
A sacred trust art keeping;
For there the dust of pilgrim sires,
And patriot, is sleeping:
Their names are whispered on the hills,
And murmured by the fountain;
And tireless echoes fling them back,
From valley, rock, and mountain!
And never shall thy sons forget
The shaunted air they re breathing;
Bold hearts shall guard the altar-fres
Their fathers died bequeathing.
While Bunker lifts its awful height,
And Boston lives in story,
Shall Massachusetts, guard her trust,
And hand it down in glory.
