ANECDOTE.

A soldier in the American army in the last
war, being unfortunately surprised at game Of
cards by Il serJeant who owed him grudge, was
carried before the colonel of the regiment, that
he might be punished for gaming, against which
general orders very severe. The soldier,
being asked what he had to say in his defense,
replied, that having been religiously educated,
and well instructed in the Bible by his parents,
and that his pay small, that with the
greatest economy he had not been able to save
enough to buy one, he had purchased a pack Of
cards of one If his comrades, which not only
served him for a Bible, but made most excel
lent almanack besides. Then taking out his
cards, he proceeded thus:
When see one, il reminds me that there is
be, one God, the two Father and Son, the three,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost four calls 10
my remembrance the four evangeists Nahew,
Mark, Luke aud John, a FIVE, the five wise and
five foolish virgins, six, tnat in six days God
created the heavens and the earth, a seven,
that The seventh was t. he kept holy, an light,
the eight righ'ous persons that were preserved
from the food, viz N"ah his wife, his three
sons, and their three wives, nine, the nine un.
grateful lepers cleansed by our Saviour, a ten,
the ten commandments A Queen reminds me
OF the Queen of Sheba, who came from the ut
most pa is Of the ear to hear the wisdom Of
Solomon, end the king, the Great King Of
Heaven"
The Colonel told him he had forgotten the
knave.
"That," replied he, "psed to represent Judas,
hut from this lime, when | see the knave, /
shall always thluk of The serjeant that brought
me before your honor.
81 don't know interrupted the colonel, smi-
ling, ''whe ,her he is he greatest knave OF the
two, but am sure he is the greatest fool"
The soldier then continued follows:
"Wben ! count he number of spots on pack
Of cards, find 365, so many davs there in a
year When | count how many cards theye are
IN pack, find SO, 50 many weeks are there in
year. When count how many pictured
cards there in pack, find ~, many
months are .here in year. Waen reckon
how many tricks there are in pack, find
thirtee n. this reminds me of the duty | owe the
thirteen united and independent States Of Amer
lea, thus they serve for both Bible and aman-
ack
The colonel called his servant, ordered him
to treat the soldier well, and dismissed him,
saying he was yegy clever fellow.

ALEXANDER COLLEGE.

Mr.. EDITuR In compliance with your
suggestion, have prepared the following brief
account of the exercises which took place on
Friday last in this city, at The close of the second
term Of Alexander College:
Most of the day was occupied in an exarnin
alton of the classes. There were present the
students and their friends, the trustees and many
others. The review proved highly satisfactory,
afording indications, that the system of mental
discipline pursued is highly efficient, and cal
culsted to produce the most desirable results
The proficiency displayed in the various branch
es of mathematics, in history, the languages
&c, would have done credit to the training OF
any institution OF greater pretensons and more
wide spread fame. Nothisg but the utmost a.
siduity of both teachers and pupils could have
produced such results, and 1 am warranted in
saying that the hopes and expectations Of all
interested were fully realized,
In the evening an extensive auditory were
further entertained by Rotations, defamation
compositions &c. Various were the subjects
d"et upon by embryo statesmen, poets, phi.
iosoPueGs, ofdtorS ana tnOralstS, IN Oreek LatIn,
German and plain English. In some instances
the youth Of the performer lent an additional
charm to the exercise, as with easy bearing and
fluent utterance he articula,ed some strange
idiom.
President Phelps, presided during the eye
ming, and seemed to share largely in the general
satisfaction as well he might. Al the conclusion
the nev. } Guernsey and Judge Clark, each
made short and appropriate address The
Judge dwelt particularly and with great force
upon the advantages to be derived from the es-
tabishment OF institutions of learning in our
midst

the Synod of Iowa. Ample provision will no
doubt be made for its endowment and support,
and it may be considered as permanently loca-
ted l has now about seventy students Al the
close of another term its first collegiate year
will have been completed, and then the summer
vacation will take place.
