A REAL CONVERSATION

"Sir," said a poor, ragged and rough look
ing man, upon whose countenance traces OF
sorrow and extreme suffering were visible,
10 an individual whose sleek and seemly en-
ssmble betokened plenty and happiness, ''sir,
| am furnishing. Will you assist me ! will
you give me the means Of procuring food
and a nights lodging 2"
$50 along, my man, | have nothing for
YOU. You can 20 to the almshouse, | sup
pose. I'll give you a line to the Alderman"
"Sir,'' said the poor man, "I'd rather not
90 TO the almshouse. | only desire a tempo
FAIRY relief. | expect work in a day or two"
sob! well, scratch along, my man; you
are not so badly off as one would imagine"
81 am absolutely starving. I'm sure you
won't miss a quarter of a dollar"
"Bles, my soul, do you think l gather my
money from trees? Go along-don't be per-
t~inacious now do take yourself off, there's
a brave man."
"You W me money, sir; | would not
remind you of the fact, sir, only that hunger
makes me desperate"
lowe you money !" exclaimed the sleek
man, stepping back a pace or %" You
are mad"
"No: seven years ago 1 worked for you!
You failed"
"Oh ! ah an old score. Oh, that's quite
another matter. Did it ever occur to you
that | have taken the benefit of the Act
gone clean through Z creditors are no one
now 1-can't touch me ~
"Yet, sir, l earned that money by hard
labor. You reaped the benefit of that labor,
are rich-while ] am tho poor wretch you
see. You owe me that money, sir, in spite
of all bankruptcies"
81 never do any thing illegal. What is
legal is honorable. The law says l don't
owe you a cent"
"Honor says you do; and of the two
honor generally tells more truths than the
law" replied the nendicant, evidently dis
pleased.
"You are getting wearisome. Will you
be kind enough to step out of the way :"
You call yourself a Christian"
" an a Christian-I latter myself a dea-
con-"
"You are esteemed a pious, honest, trust
worthy gentleman"
g am as good a one as can be found in
the whole religious community"
"Then The dominions of tho Evil One can
boast of purity when compared with such
communities, and the society of thieves is
cemented by more real honor. Your respec-
liability, honor, piety and justice are com-
prised of your broadcloths and fine words,
and go no further. Keep your money. I'd
strive before I'd touch a copper of it,"
Some time ago the above conversation ac-
tually took place in Broadway, near the
American Museum. A short time ago, tho
mendicant now a stovedealer, in tolerable
business-employed his oppressor, reduced
to want, as q porter and after deducting tho
amount of the dishonored bill from his wages,
when he had earned the amount of the bill.
generously presented it to the fallen Phari-
see. This is an absolute fact. Every day
life teens with such remarkable transactions
and singular reverses. Retributive Justice
sooner or later overtakes the evil doer, and
the ingenuity of man knows not how to
avert the merited and never falling punish
ment.

Now, as with I,ishmep, so with other men.
Gentleness of persuasion will generally con-
troll them, where rudeness of %reproach would
only i~nfuriate and make manageable. We
have often seen this principle of human ma
ture illustrated by the management Of our
Policemen, who too often overlook it. We
say this not without thinking Of the trying
circumstances Of such a profession, and there
fore in a spirit of due allowance.
Let, then, the law of Force give way to the
law of Love! Did our laws and their PEN
alties, and our personal bearing, once come
to conform to the promptings of Right rather
than Might, glorious would be the change
The pistol and the bowie knife would become
memorials of the past-cnriosities for exhibit
tons in Museums, on which Posterlty will
gaze with eyes of wonder.
A new order of things is surely approach
ing, and blessed is he whose moral vision
shall be permitted to see the day of its bless
ed advent. In gloriously inspiring language
now finding a joyful response from Arostook
10 Texas, Slightly modified, let us sing;
There's a good time coming, boys!
There's a good time coming;
We may not live to see the dav,
But Earth shall glisten in the Ray
OF the good time coming!
Pistol balls may aid the truth,
But LovE's a weapon stronger;
Wen win OUR battle by its aid
Wait a little longer!

A PICTURE For TIE PEOPLE.

Henry G.. Wright, in a letter from Scone
in Scotland, in the last Biberator, gives the
following picture of a Sunday performance
there:
"rhis is the first day or Sunday. Scone
is two miles north of Perth. | am now at
the Castle, so famed in Scottish history as
the place where her kings and queens were
crowned. 1t is a beautiful spot, on the left
bank of the Tay. Nothing can exceed the
loneliness of the place. In the forenoon, |
attended a meeting in Perth, and heard a
tipping DID. preach a man in theory and
practice hostile to the glorious abstinence re-
form. Twenty of his church members sell
whiskey. Every now and then he accompa-
MES one Of his members to a drurkGrd'S
grave, praying over the corpse, and improv-
ing the occasion to the spiritual good Of his
hearers and to oppose total abstinence, and
to treat with insolence and priestly scorn
those of his members who are trying to get
him to stop drinking.
His meeting was on this wise first, he
read a psalm, and the whole congregation
sung. While singing, the ID. ID. took out a
large silver snulf-box-opened it. Just as
singing was nearly done, he took a large
pinch Of snuff between his forefnger and
thumb of his right hand, then raised his left
hand to his nose, took it by the end, stopped
one n%ostril, and gave three hard pulls at the
snuff into the other nostril. | was in the
gallery, and saw it. This was to prepare
his spirit to say a prayer. Then he arose
and prayed, and during prayer, or speech, he
took out his handkerchief four times to wipe
away the ~droppings of his nose, caused by
the snuff. During the service he prayed
three times, and before and during each
prayer he went through exactly the same
process. His sermon was saturated with
snuff. 1t is a common practice among the
Scotch ministers to take snuff, and drink
trine and ,Chiskey tOddy. The cause of prac-
teal righteousness and reform is as %effectu-
ally excluded from the religion Of the pulpit
and the church, on Sunday in Scotland, as it
is in America. The heaven which this re-
ligion promises, has nought to do with per-
sonal character. By some theological twist,
it promises heaven to the ~tipplers, whiskey
dealers, and men guilty of every crime to
man.

CLEANED on a haurhty forehoad

Cleaned on a naughty forehead
That worshipped not, nor bent;
Then on a careless w%hisperer
Its searching radiance sent.
On the fair lips of beauty,
On woman's glorious brow,
| read Weighed in the balance
And wanting found art thou"
Thou dost not praise Jehovah
Thy sweet lips pour not forth
The words of peace and holiness
That purify the earth
The brow meant as the temple
OF calm thought and serene,
A chamber Of vain imagery,
An idol shrine has been;
While all the deep affections
Lavished on thee by heaven,
To purely human interests
Have hitherto been given.
| passed a rich mans mansion
Who gave to all the poor;
Although a beggar blessed him,
"Tekel" was on the door.
His gifts were all Of money,
No heartfelt love gave he;
Nor time, nor self-denial,
Nor prayer for charity.
His bounties made men wonder,
Men weighed their magnitude;
God weighed his means and motives
Nor called it doing good.
Pray God, for Jesus merits,
And for his sacrifice,
And for His own great mercy,
That on our dying eyes,
The fearful word may glare not
Nor, as upon dark scrolls,
Be written at the judgment
"Tekel" upon our souls.

A Musical BED.-We find the following
in several of our exchanges:
From Germany the latest novelty is a mu-
steal bed which receives the weary body and
Immediately laps it in EIysium.' 1t is the
invention Of a mechanic of Bohemia, and is
SO constructed that by means of hidden me-
chanism, pressure upon the bed causes a soft
and gentle air of Auber to be played, which
continues long enough TO hull the most wake
ful TO sleep. At the head is a clock, TIE hand
Of which being placed at the hour the sleeper
wishes TO rise, when the time arrives, the bed
plays a march Of Spontini, with drums and
c~y.nbals, and in short, with noise enough to
rouse the seven s~leepers. This unique bed
becomes therefore the ne Plus ultra for the
wakeiul as well as the sluggish.
Were we to point out a person, and say,
"There goes a man who has no vice." he
would not be- noticed but exclaim, g that
man is worth five hundred tho sand dollars"
and he will be stared al till out of sight.
