A Steamboat Incident.

We are informed of laughable affair which
occurred on recent trip of the steamer Bos-
ton from Bangor to this port. An elderly
gentlemen of this city wished to retire to rest,
but discovered that his berth was not only oc-
cupied, but contained two persons a
liberal supply for steamboat berth. He
made application at the clerks Office for the
expulsion of the intruders. The request was
promptly attended to, and To- the occupants
were Jonathan and his wife, from away down
east The lady was shown to the ladies'
cabin, closely followed by her spouse, who,
true TO his marital rights, also entered the
bower Of beauty, and commenced preparations
for retiring. His operations were speedily
put stop TO by an expulsion from the room.
The affair caused some merriment among a
number of the stronger sex, who were deter
mined to, and did, see the termination of it

INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY. The moment
a man parts with his moral independence the
moment he judges of duty, not from the in
ward voice, but from the interests and will of
a party; the moment he commits himself to
leader or body, and winks at evil because d.
visions would hurt the cause; the moment he
shakes off his particular responsibility, be-
cause he is but one Of thousand or million
by whom the evil is done-that moment he
parts with his moral power. He is shorn of
the energy of single-hearted faith in the right
and the true. He hopes from mans policy
what nothing but loyalty to God can accom-
plish. He substitutes coarse weapons, forged
BY mans wisdom, for celestial power.-ChGn-
ming.
