A LONG BET--One summer evening last
year, we were costly seated in one of those
arm chairs at the Clinton Hotel, smoking
one Of the proprietor's best cigars, conyers,
ing with friend p, Of Long Island.
when he asked US whether we ever heard
Of bet that was once made by two young
gentlemen who were seated on former
occasion in about the same place which we
then occupied.
NO. we replied 'what was the be,?'
sThere were two young fellows made o
bet, and just then Mr.. Hodges, who kept
the hotel at that time, was coming down
Beekman street, one of them said:
MIR. Hodges we have just made bet.
which we will leave 10 your decision. The
bet amounts only to two bottles OF cham
pagn. which we will drink to-day at dinner
provided you will charge it TO which ever
YOU viii decide has Iost--and you shall join
US in drinking the wine.'
Il am agreed replied Mr.. Hodges.
You understand the arrangement dis.

Ties to which ever loses!
yes, that's it; and we will pay you as
soon as you decide the bet, which had bet.

had joined them at the table. became some

JOHN QUINCY ADAMS.
he Editor Of the New York Daily Times:

/
Ia the latter part ol the week, previou:
to the melancholy day on which Mr. Adam.
fell from his seat in the Hall Of Represen
tatives. .eXcIaiming, "This is the last q
earth" spent an hour or more with hin
at his own house. lie was feeble in health
but his mind seemed especially bright snd
active. The time passed in familiar con
versation on several subjects. Among 9th
ers the war with Mexico was named. lie
deplored the contest, but observed:
''if the progress Of our armies will open
The way for the admission of the Bible,
Mexico will, after all, be infinitely gain
er; for,'' he added with great earnestness,
''.he Bible, is the only true liberator and
reformcr Of enslaved and degraded ma.
tons"
| replied that enlightened statesmen, both
in England and America, seemed to be
more and more alive to this great truth,
and that il might be counted among the
propi,ious signs Of the times; but that !
hoped our public men would not forget the
value of the Bible TO themselves as sinners
before God, while they owned its iinpor-
tance to the nations Of the earth.
Mr.. Adams Immediately answered:
"Ah, there lies the great value Of the Hol,
Book. |, brings salvation through Re-
deemer, to sinful, lost men. am nrre
aud more charmed with the simplicity Of
its teachings as a revelation Of forgiveness
from COP; and love to sit down in the
spirit Of little child, and gather up its
messages Of love as they apply to my own
case, when standing at the threshold Of an.
other world" He was much moved and
so was !, though neither OF US foresaw the
memorable event which day or two was
10 bring forth, aud after had expressed
my qualification in hearing him declare So
unequivocalIy his cordial reception Of
these gres, Gospel truths, he added
"Alen may speculate on such matters il
hey will; but after all, the main question
narrows itself down to this one point-
what kind Of Savior do need, as sinful
man? The Bible tells me, summing itself
up, as il we're in one sentence-.Ihis is >
faithful saying, and worthy OF all accepta
ton, that Christ Jesus came into the world
10 save sinners Now when have looked
INTO the Bible and into my own heart, |
learn what are tho evils which surround
me and lie before me as an offender agains,
God, and from which may hope TO be saw
ed This somewhat prepares me to 81,
what kind of refuge | need. What should
be the character and work of Him whom
should trust 10 be my Savior" Then rails
ing his sutfused eyes to Heaven, he conclu.
ded with the remark, "Where am to look, /,
ind where must 60, If may not rest my
soul on the atonement for sin rendered on
he cross by the crucifed Redeemer."
have always believed that Mr.. Adams
spoke in this touching interview from the
feelings Of a con'ri,e heart; and it was With
no small pleasure that ! recalled to ms
mind both what he said and the manner Of
saving, when few days atterward saw
him an inmate Of his coffin.

Round the mansion where he lay,

Like the fleeting hopes Of man.

And tia, mighty heart grew stll.;
Yet the soul, its Cod adoring,

Ger the body's ruin soaring,
Mingled with the infinite.
Where he sleeps, that man ofglory,

And his weeping coun'ry's story,

But the love that deepest listened,
Caught such balm as Heaven can give;

The editor Of the temperance Battery
has been perambula,ng upper Missouri
lately, aud writes thus to his paper from
Hannibal:
FoR A QUART OF I.loUoR.--Judge GORE,
ofthis city QIannibal MOI related to u
the following as coming under his own OBJ
serya,on. Ton Nc. was confirmed sol +;
had made perlec, beast Of himself, with
the help of the grocery keeper. tn one
occasion Ton went to the grog shop. out
Of money and credit too, and begged for
some whisky.
The s.og seller promised him quart,
upon consideration that he would take ten
llshes upon his bare back, with raw hide,
and all the while keep his thumbs in two
auger holes bored into the wh.pping-pos,
Mac. at last agreed 10 the hard bargain,
stripped off, and received eigh, severe lash
es without finching; the ninth was very
hard, and The poor fellow jerked his thum'
out ofthe auger hole. BY the terms OF his
bargain he must Iose the whisky or take
The ashes over sgain. He stood up to il
again, but at the ninth lash again tiInched
Jerking his 'hamb ont Of the nuecr hole
The proS seller was inexora ble--he would
not aba,e one Of the lashes. And nov
poor Mac determined TO try it again, and
fixing his two thumbs in the auger holes
apparently with a death grip, he stood il
this time the whole ten, making in al
twenty-eight Iashcs, laid on by the strong
willing arm Of the grog seller.
Then the poor fellow having nothing
else into which The quart Of whisky could
be put, was obliged by the heartless gro.
Gerry keeper, to receive il in his old felt hat,
| in which he carried it of--the price Of his
own blood. After this, the same poor
drunkard went toa young doctor in this
ghborhood, and begged for whisky
The doctor, 10 satisfy himself Of the truth
Of what he had heard respecting the great
strength ofthe mans appetite, proposed to
give him the whisky upon conditions that
Mac. would suffer the first joint Of his
thumb to be cut off. TO this he agreed
And the doctor took ont his knife, and cut
through the skin and flesh, clean to the
bone.
This satisfied him that he would really
submi. to the ampu,a,ion, rather than lose
the whisky, aud he bound up the wound
aud le, him have the quart ofliquor. An.
other time the same man applied to Judge
GORE for a dram--he begged "only one
glass" The Judge at last consented ft
Ie, him have it, provided he would swnllo"
with i, such proportions Of tartar eme,ic
ipecacuahna and assaietida as lie would
put into il. Mac. consented, and doctor
drugged the gill Of whisky with the above
articles to the exten, that he supposed was
safe. With full knowledge OF the fact
the miserable man tnrnod off the nauseons
draugh, a, single swallow--and was Of
course made violently sick.
