The Titl3Fi9aS Little BOy.

I had The following auecdo;e from gentle
man Of yeraci,y:
little boy in Connecticut, Of remarkably
serious mind and habits, was ordinarily en-
Pioyei about mechanics shop, where nearly
all tho hands were addicted to the common
use o. intoxicating liquors. The lad had
iublbe1 temperance PrhCi les, and though
often invited, could never be induced to par
take with any Of the shops crew. At length
his teacher in the Sunday choOl, in conversa-
ton on certain non-resistant texts OF scripture
had awakened his mind that subject, and
he very canscienuously avowcd his de.er.ui-
nation to Try to live in accordance with this
great Christian doctrine three or four Of
the harder drinkers in the shop, somewhat
piqucd at such precious plety and scrupu-
lousueSS Of conscience, resolved to humble
the lad, or at least put his new notions 10 the
test They resolved to force a dram Of ram
down his throat by some means. Seizing an
opportunity when he was left alone in the
shop with themselves, they invited him TO
drink. He refused. They then told him
they should compel him. He remained calm
and unmoyed. They threatened him with
violence. Still he neither seemed angry nor
attempted to escape, nor eyinced the least
disposition u yield; but insisted that it was
wicked, and Ae could not do it. They then
laid hold Of him, a manat each arm, while the
third held the bottle ready 10 force ti inio his
mouth. SNil their victim remained meek
and firm, declaring That he had never injured
them, and never sAcu d, but HAT God would
be his friend and protector, however they
might abuse hIn. be man who held the
fatal bottle, up to that moment esolute in
his evil purpose, was 50 struck by the nom
resisting dignity and innocence Of that lad,
that, as he afterwards confessed almost with
f,lf
