man, bending his shoulders to the sun, and

A Thrilling Incident.

On Sunday last, says the Pittshnrg Des-
patch, the Third Church was crowded by
an audience, curious to hear sermon from
Rev. Charles |, Parsons, years ago popu-
lar with our citizens as q Tragedian Of no
small reputation. AT the close Of IN excel
lent DISCOURSE, Mr.. 7. remarked that he
would relate aninc,lent which had occurred
within his own observation, fur the purpose
of showing how small a circumstances ap-
lparently, may be instrumental in doing
good. Some ten years since, young man
far gone in the paths of sin, was induced.
tpanly by curiosity and partly by bsiter mo-
tives, occasionally TO attend diYns seryice;i il
so happened, that he was ia attendance on
one OCCASION, on the morning OF Commun-
ion Sunday; at the close Of the regular SER
vice, the pastor announced the hour of the
Communion, and affectionately invited ali
the congregation to be inaitendance, nj least
a. spectators to the ceremony. The indi-
yidual Of whom he was speaking, returned
TO The church ut the hour appointed, and
found himself the sole spectator Of the i'm
posing scene--and the circumstance pressed
upon his mind the question, Shall il always
be thus with me---at the last great supper,
shall be merely spectator' With such
ovcrpowering force did the question press
upon him, that the impression could not be
eiiaced: be became Christian, and is now
engaged ia the ministry.
"My friends" said Mr.. p, "tbat scene
occurred in this building; this dear friend"
he remarked, turning to DIR. Riddle, 'gave
that invitation, aud the young man who ac-
ceptod il, is now. addressing youW The
effect was electric; uot an individual in the
house, bat was moved in sympathy with the
emotion which seemed struggling in the
breast Of the preacher, as he related this in
tercsting portion Of bis own history.

The REsPoNsIBHITY.-Afe few evenings since
we heard young gentleman from Virginia de-
liver an eloquent address, in which he related
the following thrilling incident. A young friend
of his had become sadly incorporate. He was
a man of great capacity, fascination and power,
but he had passion for brandy which nothing
could control Often in his walks he remonstra-
ted with him, but in vain; and as often, in turn
would his friend urge him to take the social glass
in vain. On one occasion, he yielded to him,
and as they walked up to the bar together, and
the bar-keeper said, Gentlemen, what will you
have ~ wine, sir" was the reply. The
glasses were filled and the two friends stood ready
to pledge each in renewed and eternal friendship,
when he paused and said to his Incorporate
friend-'Now if drink this glass and become
drunkard, will you take the responsibility ?"
The drunkard looked at him with severity and
said, est dorm that glass" twas set down,
and they walked away without saying a word.
o. the drunkard knows the awful consequences
of the first glass. Even in his own madness for
liquor, he is not willing to assume the response
bility of another's becoming drunkard. Now
