SINGULAR PRAYER.

The following story, the late Sir Walter
Scott used to repeat with great JUNCTION, but
he has omitted it in his amusing journal OF
the voyage he took amongst the northern
islands of Scotland, in the lighthouse yacht.
Il appears that the island. of Sanda is one OF
the worst situated for navigation, aud the
best for wreckers, of and amongst the Ork
neys; and the story goes that a worthy min
lister of that dangerous Isle,
"Whose b rren beach with frequent weeks is
strewei,'
sympathized so deeply with the interests Of
his flock, that in winding up his prayer for
mercy and safety to all mankind, he added
