CoNscIENCE.-A decayed
old gentleman, who ended
his days in Gainsborough
workhouse, being on his
death-bed, and having some
thing which hung heavy on
his mind, desired the vicar
of the parish might be sent
for. On the reverend gen
tleman's arrival the mystery
was cleared up, by the pau
per telling him that, "once
upon a time, passing over a
certain common, he saw two
men putting down a direc.
ton post; and waiting their
departure he went and turned
the post in an opposite direc-
lion, and it had always been
a heavy burthen on his con-
science TO think how many
unfortunate travellers he had
sent the wrong way"
