A meeting. in connection With the Bible
Society, Was recently he'd in Paris. at which
a gentleman appeared who had been sent
over from England by the committee Of the
Bible Society in London. This representa-.
tive had been chosen we understand, for
his superior knowledge of the French Ian.
guage. In his return. he addressed the Pari-
ian assembly with great fire and energy;
but when he expected to see them beaming
withe enthusiasm or melted into tears, he OBJ
served a smile on every face, and heared
from every quarter. the sound of suppressed
laughter. This occurred so often, that there
was no installing it for any casual eject, and
the gentleman was. no doubt, nightly aston
ished at such a display from the people so
well. bred as the French are generally allow
ed to be. When he had finished his grafton,
he asked friend what could possibly have
created so much laughter while he was
speaking. He found, to his utter dismay,
that, in his eagerness to impress upon the
assembly the necessity of taking the ira
ter Of life 1.-THE scriptures) to the poor hea-
thens, he had unconsciouslv been expatiating
with all his might on the virtues of brandy,
(eau-de rie) exorting the multitude 10 enable

their fessow-creatures were perishing Tor the
