SINGULAR COINCIDENCE.

When quite young, in &oyish days, \
bad watched some sparrows carrying ma
terisIs 10 build their nests, I'm the usual
season, J under the caves oil a cottage ad II
joining our own; and although s'1et orr
ders had been issued that none Of us
should climb up to the roof Of the houses,
vel birlsT eggs formed a temptation too
powerful TO be resisted. and self grafifica-
1ion was considered rather than obedience.
A favorable opportunity presenting Itself.
the roof Of the house was assembled,
and not only the nest pillaged, but seized
and carried away II vas soon stripped Of
IFS unnecessary appendages, that i might
appear as neat as possible. Among the
erternals thus removed, was piece Of
paper. which had been pageiof one Of
Dir. Watts hymn books. and which. thrown
away, bad beenstaken by the poor bird for
strengthening the nest or increasing the
warmth. A word or two caught my eye,
and uniolded the paper. Need say
that, boy as | was.I read these verses with,
TO say atleast curious feelings:
'Why should deprive my neighbor
VI MS soCuS against MS VIE.
/ Hands we're made for honest labor,
/ ~ Not 10 p!under or TO steal.
| Guide NY heart, o God Of heaven,
LestI coyet what's not mine,
Lest take what is not given.
Guide my hands and heart from sin
Had The bird been able to read aud res-
son, it could no. have selected text more
appropriate for reproof and instruction
than this. What was contriyed and done
in secret, was thus condemned from the
housetop. At alteve pts, il can do your
readers no harm to remind them that
when they do wrong. God sees them. and
can&send them reproof, even by means
OF bird. I have not forgotten the les
son presented to me by The leaf Of pa
per which had been fixed to the nest Of .
