PURITAN RELIC.

The Springfield Gazette publishes a litcra
copy of II letter written one hundred and
til irty-tour years ago, by Rev. Lawrence Co
ma mt, giving an account Of the ordination Of
he first minister ever settled over the Old
South Parish in Danvcrse. The letter is a
curious relic of the olden time, as the reader
will not doubt when lie has perused the fol
lowing extract;
aye Governor was in yc house, and her
Majesy's commissioners of We customs, and
they set together on high seat by yc pulpit
stairs. Ye Governor appears very dcvout
and attentive, although he favors Episcopacy
and toerates ye Quakers and Baptists, bat is
a strong opposer of We Papists, lie was
dressed in a black Velvet Coat, bordcred with
gold lace, and bluff brccchcs with gold buck
les at We knees, and white silk stockings.
There was a disturb apcc in yc gall cries,
where it was filled with divers negroes, mu-
lattocs and Indians, and negro called Pomp
Shorter, belonging to Mr.. Gardner, was c; He'd
forth and put in We broad aisle, where lie
was reproved with great caretulness and So
lemnity. He was then put in We Deacon's
seat, between two Deacons, i'll view Of ye
whole congregation; but We Sexton was or
dercd by Mr.. Prescott to take him out, be-
cause of has levty and strange contortion of
countcnance, (giving grave scandal to We
grave Deacons) and put him in ye lobby un
der yc stairs; some children and a mulatto
Woman were reprimanded for laughing at
Pomp Shorter. When We services at yc
house were ended, ye council and other dig.
nitaries were entertained at ye house of Mr..
Epes, on We hill near by, and we had boun-
tiful table, with bears meat and VeniSon, the
last of which was fine buck shot in We
woods near by. Ye Bear was killed in Lynn
Woods, near Reading. After ye blessing was
craycd by Mr.. Garrish of Wentham, word
came that ye buck was shot on ye Lord's
day, by Pequot, an Indian, who came to Mr..
Epes with lyc in his mouth, like Anannias
of old; we council thercupon refused to cat
We Vension, but it was afterward agreed that
Pcquot should receive 40 stripes save one, fer
lying and profaning ye Lords day, restore
Mr. Epes the cost Of We deer; and, consider
ing this just and righteous sentence on ye
sinful heather, and that blessing had been
craved on ye meat, we council all partook Of
it, but Mr.. Shepard, whose conscience was
tender on we point of Vcnsion."

WORKING AND Observation-Disclosures
wept because he had not another world to
conquer. Poor Alexander! Happy enough,
doubtless, so long as he had plenty Of CON
quering to do; but wretched even TO tears,
when it was all done, and nothing remained
to vanqnish. There is endless philosophy
here, if we will but look at it. Alexander's
case had nothing peculiar i'll it; it was the
human nature of which he was made that fell
into trouble as soon as it was out of business,
and now, as then, employment is enjoyment,
while to be destitute OF it, is the most unmi-
tigated misery. Had Alexander, surnamed
the Great, been a modern mechanic, he need
not have sat down TO blubber like u BOBBY
because he could not get another job World
after world would have arisen before him, in
wiling perpetual conquest. He need not
then have complained that his work was done
before the common allotment of life was half
past. The lachrymal pumps and tear ducts
OF humanity are put into operation by va
riety of causes, in this vale oftears; but there
are few so common as ideness, or having
nothing to do. When we hear young man
of the severity of his fate, in be-
ing compelled to labor, or a young woman
singing:
81 wishI was married with nothing to rue,
With plenty Of money and nothing to do"
we remember the cause of the great Alexan-
1er's celebrated crying spell, and turn cheer
fully to our work.-HpduStrtaI agent.

EAST BosroN, May 23d, 1SH.-Mr S. w. Fowle: ;
Sir, have seen so much of the virtue of Wistar's
add my testimony in its praise. My son about II
years of age, has for the last ten months been at-
hcted with a severe cough, pains in the side and
body, and gradual wasting until ne was put
mere living skeleton. had had the advice of three
Physicians, but none of them could give him any
relief. and gradually yet surely he seemed to be
sinking into the tomb. Happening accidentally to
see some of your Free Alnanacs" we felt us
though the Bnlsam would help him, as there were
some cases that had been cured when they were as
bad as he was. therefore procured Il bottle of Dr.
Kidder, the Agent in this place. and before he had
used all Of it he began to grow better, and by using
three bottles bis cough was all gone and he is now
enjoying good health, for which he is solely indebt-
ed through the blessing Of God to Wistar's Balsam
Of Wild Cherry. WM. DIXON.
