There arc many PrOtesianis who would
DO well to take a lesson from the Irish
milkmsn, and not LEI Others deal out Bible
truth 10 them IS they may think best.
The following aneciOie was related in Lii
yetpool, by gentleman fIom Cork,
A short time since a Romish priest OF
the county Of Kerry received information
that member Of his congregational
milkman-was in the habit or frequently
reading the Scriptures. and paid him pas
toral visit. On arriving a: the humble ca
bin, he found poor Pa: employed in his
domestic affairs, and thus addressed hi:..:
Why. my good fellow, am inform
ed that you ara in The habit al reading the
Bible; is my information correct!''
Sure, il is true, phase your reverence.

"that il is very wrong 70 read the Scrip
lures. An ignorant man like you has 10
right to do So"
Z" All" replied Pat I" but you must be
after proyin' that same, before | can con-
STINT 70 lave il off,"

The priest Immediately tool M the Pi-

Of Peter, ii. 2. As new borr babes, desire

priest, .you are wrong TO read ihe Scrip
lures yourself; you are only babe; AID
you are Cnjoihed to des;.. the sincere
milk ofthe word One who understands
what the sincere milk really is; must give
II you, and tend you."
Pat listened atientively to the priests
aaIholltative address, but in no way at a
loss TO reply to what rnight have puzzled
wiser heads, said" All, but be aisY. vour

The priest thus finding himself defeat
ed, and DESTROYS that the mischief should
spread no further, said, in a conciliatorv
tone" Well, Pat. | see that you are |
little wiser than thought you; and as you |
arc not quite babe. you may keep your
Bible bot don't lend it or read it to your

Pat, cycling his admonitor verv cunning

pc:sia. The Book referred TO is the Me
moirs ID a Babylonish Princess purportng
10 be written by herself, and giving history
oi The manners. morals. and private customs
orthe East. The title Of the work reads
rery much like the suggestion of the fancy
but the volume is vastly entertaining one,
whether written by an oriental princess, or.
rs We suspect, by an English tourist. But,
NC were going to tell a parrot story rather
than to give notice Of the WORK itself so 10
return 10 the harcm of fhe Sutdna- She had
parrot it seems, which had been taught di-
verse sentences from The Koran, and had ar
rived at such proficiency in his pious ex-
crcscs rs almost to rival the Mollah him
self in his devout CALCULATIONS. II is The lol
of the faithful TO undergo trials: and accor-
dingly it 50 fell out enc day that an irreve-
rent hir! Of prey happened TO espy the feath
cred devo'rc. y no, absorbed, no doubt, in
PiUus meditation, and wholly unconscious of
danger, was wandering at some distance from
lis cage. Not having the fear OF Mahomet
before his eyes, the il-omened bird, who, if
h"t ii uoNuWflSnl western kdDr, must HAVE
been either shiah or yezidi, no sooner espied
the wandcrer, than without the smallest
ceremony, he pounced upon the laquacious
friend Of the beautiful Sultana, aud assembled
some distance with her into the air, with the
fullintcniion OF making a hearty meal; when
the parrot forthwith exclaimed, in loud ac-
cents, La illahoun lila Allah W, Moham-
med rasul Allah There is but one God and
Mahometis his prophet
Upon hearing this, the bird ofprcy hogan to
have ms misgivings; but when the parrot
continued, in the same pious strain, 'all the
rest vanity ofvanities,' it became clear to
ms mind that he had got himself into an
