The Deacon's Order.

A pious, bu, ilIiterate deacon, in a certain
town adjacent To Worcester, Mass, gave to
the coachman slip Of paper, upon which, he
said, was written the name of couple Of
bouks, which he wished him 10 call for al Dir.
As book store. The driver called at the
store, and handing the memorandum to clerk,
said
There's couple of books, which Deacon
Is. wished you to send 10 him
The clerk after a careful examination of the
paper, was unable 10 make head or tall' Of il,
and passed il I" The book-keeper. who was sup
passed to know something Of letters; but to
him il was also Greek The proprietor was
called and he also gave the thing up ia des
pair and it was finally concluded best 10 send
the memorandum back to the deacon, as il was
supposed he must have sent the wrong paper.
As the coach arrived at the village inn, the
driver saw the deacon waiting or the steps.
'Well, driver said he, did you get my
books io-dayr
Books no; and good reason why, for
there couldn't man in Worcester read your
old hen tracks.
Couldn't read 'rien Let me see The pa
peri
The driver drew it from his pocket, and
passed il to the deacon, WIN, taking out and
adjusting his glasses, held the memorandum al
arms length, cxcIaiming, as he did so, in
very satisfied tone:
Why lis as plain as the nose on your
face TO SAM Blu 1.-Two psalm
books - guess his clerks had better 60 to
school awhit!'
And here the deacon made some reflections
upon the ignorance Of the tiues,' aud the
want of attention to bucks by the rising gen
eraton,' which would have been all very well,
if said by somebody else.

ADVANTAGES OF PAYING FOR A NEWSPAPER
IN ADVANCE. One Of the facts put In evidence
at the trial in the Supreme Court, to sustain
the will Of the late William RUSSELL was,
that only few days before he made the will,
he called at the Office of the Democrat and paid
for his paper year in advance, thereby say
ing fifty cents. This fact was dwelt upon at
length by counsel, and commented upon by
the Judge in his charge, as one of great i'm
portance. The verdict of the jury would seem
10 sustain the position, that man who has
mind and memory enough to pay for his news
paper in advance, is competent to make his
will.-FrankGn Democrat.

A ShreWd Minister.

i minister had travelled tar to preach to a
congregation. After the sermon, lie waited
very patiently, expecting some of the brethren
to invite him home to dinner. In this he was
disappointed. One and another departed,
until the house was almost empty. Summon
ing resolution, however, he walked up to an
elderly looking gentleman, and grayely said ::
Will you go home with me to dinner to-
day brother!'
where do you livc!'
About twenty miles from this
No. said the man, coloring, but you must
60 with me-.
Thank you will, cheerfully.'
After that time, the minister was no more
troubled about his dinner.

sian soldiers.
*The sakli' 10 the habitatiuu OF the Eastern
Caucasus. II is constructed of unhewn stones.
cementsd with clay instead of mortar.
IA tuft of horse hair is commonly inserted
by the Circassians in the heels of their pris-
oners, in order to create such degree of
lameness as to prevent their escape.
THE simplicity of many of the Russian
soldiers is almost touching in its childishness.
Il is against the Car that VIC are making war,
not against these unfortunate beings.
