THE CUP OF COLD wATER-A Young

THE CUP OF COLD WATER.-A young
English woman was sent to France to be ed
uca ted in Paris A few evenings before the
fatal massacre of ST. Bartholomew's Day,
she and her young companions were taking a
walk ia some part of the town where there
were sentinels placed perhaps on the WALL
and you know that when soldier is on guard
he must not leave his post until he is relieved;
that is till another soldier comes to take his
place. One of the soldiers, as the young la
dies passed HIM, besought them to have the
charity TO bring him little water, adding
that he was very i'll, and that it would re as
much as his lie was worth to go and fetch it
himself. The ladies' walked on. much often
ded OF the man for presuning to speak to them
all but the young Eng ishwoman, whose
compasslo was moved, and who, leaving her
party, procured some waller and brought it to
the soldier. He begged her TO tell him her
name and place OF abode; and this she did.
When she rejoined her companions, some
blamed and Others ridiculed her attention to
common soldier; but they soon had reason
to lament that they had not been equally com
passionate for the grateful soldier cont rived
on the nj ht of the massacre to save this
young Eng lshwolnaiI. white all the other in
habilants Of the house she dwelt in were kill

LOVE AND DERr.

There is very little d ference between the
man in love and man in debt. Both the
debtor and the lover commence operations by
promisory notes; the former giving bills 10
his creditor, aud the latter sending billet doug
to his fair one. The lover by promising 10
cherish. IS honored wtha place in the lady's
good books; and he debtor, BY promising 10
pay, winneth admission into the creditors

and debt hoIdeth no reckoning. The man
who oweth money is in need of brass, aud
