What a vast difference educate

What a vast difference education,
association, and habit, make among
men of all sorts and sizes, trades,
grades and professions How very
few are the evils of society which are
regarded by all; how much OF every
thing, especially of opinion, takes
its color from the eye Of the obser-
YER, without reference TO the real
nature Of the thingl But we don't
intend to write an essay, but mere
ly to tell an anecdote 10 illustrate
what we have been saying-an an
ecdote which has at least the merit
oI authenticity, and a small piece
Of drolIery. Several years ago two
English clergymen Of the society OF
independents" as the congrega-
tionalists are termed in England,
came as delegates from the home
churches to the churches in the Uni
ted States, for the purpose OF inqui-
ry respecting the religious condition
Of the new world. Both OF them
were persons eminent for piety, but
neither Of them had ever known
any thing Of temperance organiza-
ton per Sc, and, though OF good per-
sonal habits, they were by no means
"tetotalers"--being, in short, very
much in this respect like the Ameri-
can clergy thirty years ago. One
OF them stopped some weeks with a
distinguished Presbyterian divine in
Philadelphia, strong total abstI-
nence man, and violent bater ol
groc in all its forms. The English
man getting nothing "to drink" al
the table OF his host. and feeling the
need of something, went out one day
to the nearest gin-shop and helped
himself. On returning TO the house
of his friend, he addressed him as
follows: any dear brother, what
sort of a shop, may ask-whai sort
of house is that about the cornerP
al don't know what house you refer
to-" said the other. "Why, SORT
-of ale-house, you know, just about
the corner" "Why, sir," said the
Philadelphian, looking rather sur
prised at the question, "why, sir
that's the lowest grog shop in th'
cityr" "Indeedr' said the phlegmat
ic EngIishman, swell, | thought so
from the bad quality of the brandy
they keep there" 81 am astonished,'
said the other in unleigned amaze
ment, "that you should visit hous'
of that description" "Well, fol
that matter, so am |, rather" replied
the EngIishman, "but, being a stran
ger in town you know couldn'
readily find a better; but of course
with the knowledge | have Of thei
villainous brandy, | shan't soon g
there again, though to say the truth
the tavern looked we'll enough. tC
have been a respectable house." Thr
Philadelphian saw at once the maj
would never understand him-gav,
a deep sigh-and turned the dis
course upon other matters.

to San Francisco. The report is,
that lhe barque, owing TO the sick
ness OF some of the crew, arrived at
Manila short handed, when Captain
Gardiner applied TO the American
Consul TO obtain more seamen, that
he might continue the voyage. This
was found a very difficult matter, no
good hands being disengaged in that
port; but finally, and after much
trouble, two men, one a Portuguese
and the other English, were induced
to ship. These men were Of noto-
rious bad character, and known as
such TO tho Consul, who cautioned
Capt. Gardiner to keep sharp look
out for them. The barque sailed
from Manila, and on the third or
fourth day out, the Captain ordered
one Of the new recruits TO 60 alOft
