A Rich Joke.

A ludicious scene recently occurred in small
chapel situated in one Of the secluded valleys
for which West Cumberland is celebrated. The
minister. who was a man by no means adverse
TO the enjoyment of the good things, ,of this world,
was engaged in carechlsing The juvenile portion
of his flock, and on putting the usual question.
What isl thy name? to the glr that stood highest.
a s,rapping girl of thirteen the only daughter of
the village Boniface. received no reply. 'Whar
is thy names' said the minister in more Pc
remp,ory manner. Gul---'Nin o yer fun, par
son We kna me neame vera wee. Duont you
say, when ye're al our house on meet, Bet,
bring me another pint o'yeII - IL is needless
to say that, notwithstanding the sacred narure
of the place in which they were assembled. the
congregation was on broad grin. His rever-
ence looked daggers.

Treatment of a Contrary Horse.

When horse gets in the way of being contrary
and will not 60 forwad at all, it is common 10 ap-
ply the whip freely. Solomon says "a whip for
the horse," but he may not refer TO ceses Of this
kind. At any rate, it is often, where thus used of
no benefit, only the qualification of the enraged
driver. method which we have known more
successful is to treat the animal very kindly
His contrary disposition is usually the result of
having been fretted in some way, and kindness
Smay overcome it. Make much Of him at all times.
Speak gently to him, and so often that he will be-
come accustomed to your voice.
When he stops when attached to a carriage or
a lead and will not move, approach him 10 the
same manner. Stroke the name and put the hand
frequently on the head. Means of this kind will
have powerful tendancy to overcome his stub
,ocness, as brutes feel the power of kindness. We
believe from what we have seen that young hol ses
especially in nine out often may be success
1ully cured of contrary habits in this way, while
the application of the whip would only increase
the difficulty.

A Hard Case.

The Bostor Saturday Rambler tells the fol-
lowing good one
"A poor jolly weaver, in this city, not many
years ago, had fortune left him by distant
and wealthy relative, who went off The handle
rather unexpectedly. When the news came To
the poor fellow, as he sat chcket te clack at his
loom, he stopped sill, and SAID
Swell, suppose must spend the money
straight"
The fortune, some twenty odd thousand dol
lars, was duly realized and duly spent. For
Two brief years did the poor weaver travel, make
merry, and riolupon all The luxurles of he land,
But two years did the job, and he returned to
his loom as poor church mouse, bu, as
merry as cricket. and worked away again for
his daily bread, perfectly satisfied with the
6 good lime he had had while his fortune lasted
His friends called him green, but he laughed at
their gbes, and worked The harder. In Il
,welvemonlh's time off popped another rich rel
alive. and the news, post haste, came to the
Jolly weaver that he was again the possessor
of handsome fortune. Stopping his loom and
looking sorrowfully on the letter, he despond-
ingly said:
Good heavens is At possible that must go
through all that again.

And the sky be blue above.
For the earth hath been dark, dark home,
With but few bright sunny gleamss

With the radiance Of their beams +!
And when / die-may the sky be clear,
That my spirit may float away,
To the farthest realms where thought can 60
Unfettered by mortal clay /
And there where grief can never come
In those pure free fields of air,
Away from earth and its heartess ones
Its fever and its care.
The spirit may find no spell to turn
All happiness to woe,
And feel the bliss above the clouds

The Republic of Liberia.

The existence of an Independent Republic
of Free Blacks on the continent OF Africa. COM
prising population of $4,000 souls, including
natives who have been incorporated lntO the
Colony, is one Of the most remarkable phenom-
ena of modern times. The above estimate
of population is given by Governor Roberts, in
his Inaugural Address, Jan. g. S4S, and is no
doubt essentially correct. In this growing
Colony, which now extends 800 miles along
the coast, the English language is that which
will ultimately prevail, and is already spoken
to a great extent. The free calored men of the
United States, and even their white Abolition
brethren, after abusing the Colony without
mercy, for many years, are beginning TO look
upon j, with a considerable degree of favour,
and will probably become in due time its fast
friends. Why should they not! They profess
to be the friends of the cOored man-and the
world does not afford another example so hon
orable TO his character and so cheering TO his
hopes. They profess to abhor the slave trade,
and this much abused Colony has done more
TO repress that trade. than the combined Ma
vies of Eangland, France, and the United
States. They profess lsome of them) to love,
The religion Of The Gospel, and this Colony Is
doing more TO spread that religion, in its purify
