Bills reply was stopped by the clergy
man, who, after having listened with an
interest that apparently absorbed him,
and touched him and his family to the
quick, broke out and said, "May God bless

There was an expression Of mingled
grief and hope in the good clergyman S

persons so strangely brought together,
parted, to meet no more in this world.

Running down the Coaster.

A country fellow who was once boast
ing about the swiftness of his horse, de-
clared that he could out-run anything
which went upon four legs. A neighbor
OF his disputed it, and said he had a. mule
which could beat him.
"a mule 2" said the boaster. ell
bet you hundred dollars of that
"Done 2" sail the other.
Done" said the boaster.
"Now cover that" said the owner of
the mule, laying down a hundred dollars
The boaster began to be frightened at
this. He thought there must be some
thing more about the mule than he was
aware of, otherwise he wouldn't plank a
hundred dollars to run him against a
horse. He began to hitch about uneasily.
He put his hand into his pocket; he pull
led 1T out again; and at last he said: Il
don't know, SNOW, about the tarnal
mule: he may be the devil and all to run,
for what know
DO you back out then p
Yes, back out and treat" So say
ing, he called IN the liquor; but declared
that his horse could beat anything which
went on four legs except the mule.
Why said the other, Give got a
jackass that will beat him.
I'll bet hundred dollars of that"
said the boaster.
Done! !" said the other.
And "Done!" said the boaster.
"Cover that ~ said the man, again
putting down.
Cover that ~ exclaimed the boaster.
" So will, plaugy quick" taking out his
pocket book.
"Well cover it if you dare-and I'll
put another hundred atop it. Why do
you hesitate! Down with the dust,
say"
" don't know, faith! l never saw
that jackass of yours run" said the
bOaster, beginning to hesitate he may
be the devil and all on race for what I
know"
"Do you funk out them
Eyes, l .fummur this time but, by
lingo, there's nothing else you can bring,
except the jackass and the mule, but what
my horse can beat"
:. Are you certain of that, my good
fellow 2"
II think so, faith ~
''Why if you are not quite certain, I'll
bet you something that I've got niggar
that will outrun him."

Yes, my niggar Tom will beat him. -

something over four hundred thousand DOL

for issuing passports (atter paying secre-
taries) he pockets cool S;24 eco, and for
appointments in his gift the trihing dona-

Ibis, he exacts three golden ounces ($5D
for every limb Of native African ebon i'm

OF the past six years places this source of
