A clerical friend, who is sssettled'' away
"Down East" tells us that he is often amused
at the shrewdness of certain parishioner of
his who is fond of reading his Bible without
note or comment, and guessing out any obscu-
rites which he may encounter. He came to
his pastor one day, and asked him what in his
opinion was the reason why the Jews who went
out to meet Christ when he was riding into
Jerusalem seated ON an ass colt, took branches
of palm trees in their hands. He was told
they intended to honor the Savior etc. "Hoa-
on him. said he ssthat's all humbug, Idon't
believe word of it. Wasn't they thirsting
for his blood A plaguy sight of honor they
meant to him. No, no, 1 tell you them pesky
Jews was awful cunnin' critters, and they
wanted to break his neck and so they took
them branches to s6eer the colt 80 Our cores

SHAMEFUL DIsHoSEsTY.-As a proof of the
extensive adulteratioD of liquors in this coun-
try, il is stated that more Port wine is drank
in the United States in one year than passes
champagne is consumed in America alone
than the whole champagne district produces ;
that Cogniac brandy costs four times as much
in France, where it is made, as it is retailed
for in our grog shops; and that the failure of
the whole grape crop in Madeira produced no
apparent diminution in quantity, nor increase
in the price of wine.
