Yankees are not the only people who talk
Tor BuncOmhc. High sounding phrases and
powerful Phillipcs can be found in other
presses than the American, and heard in
other legislative assemblies than the Amer
lean Congress. The recent crisis in
England afforded a magnificent, arena for the

language, and the vlccilation Of public men.

of the nation.
In reviewing the recent - crisis we think
that among all the satircs of Dickens there is
nothing more true than the following from
Bleak House
" England has been in a dreadful state for
some weeks. Lord Coodle would go out, Sir
Thomas Doodle wouldn't, come in, and there
being nobody in Great Britain { to speak of
except Coodle and Doodle, there las been no
Government. 1t is a mercy that the hostile
meeting between those two great men, which
at one time seemed inevitable, did not come
off because if both pistols had taken effect,
and Coodlc and Doodle had killed each other

that if in the heat of debate he had said that
he scorned and despised the whole ignoble
career OF Sir Thomas Doodle, he had merely
meant to say that party differences should
never induce him to withhold from it the
tribute of his warmest admiration while it
as oppurtunely turned out, on the other hand.
that Sir Thomas Doodle had IN his own bosom
expressly booked Lord COodlo to 60 down to

observed by Sir Leicester Dedlock) to weather
the storm and the marvellous part of the
matter is. that England has not appeared TO
care very much about it, but has gone on
| eating and drinking, marrying and giving in
marriage, as the old world did in the
days before the food. But Coodle knew the
danger, and Doodle knew the danger, and all
their followers and hangers-on had the clear
est possible perception of the danger. AT
last Sir Thomas Doodle has not only con des-
cended TO come il. but has done it handsomely
bringing in with him all his nephews, all his
male cousins, and all his brothers in law. So
there is hope for the old ship yet"

The Black.Eyed Boy,

Two or three years ago, l went into a
town in the State Of New Hampshire, to give
temperance lecture. There were good
many persons in the town who drank intoxi-
eating liquors. But many came to hear me
and noticed, just as commenced speaking,
little black-eyed boy, just about seven
years old, who came into the hall ana sat
down near the door. lie listened very atten-
lively; and when spoke of the cruel treat
ment of wives and children, of Incorporate
men, | saw him more than once take bis
handkerchief and wipe away the tears.
told them the pledge would prevent all this,
and make them kind and pleasant and told
the children to sign it if they would prosper
and be happy in the world This little fell
low was almost the first to put his name
down; and when asked them who he was
they told me he was called black eyed Joe,
and that his father was one of the worst
drunkards in the town.
1t was his custom every morning to mingle
rum and sugar with water, and pass II round
to every one of the children, who took little
as well as their father and mother. lie
would drink again at eleven O'Clock and at
supper time, 50 that 1T evening he would al
WAYS be intoxicated cruel and revengetul.
Sometimes he would beat his wife. and some
times his children, or shut them out IN the
cold storms. 1t was this that made Joseph
veep when told cf the cruelty to children,
and it was this that induced him to sign the
pledge
lie went home from the meeting and deter
mined to keep his resolution. The next
morning as usual his father took out the
brown Jug, mixed the pitcher OF poison and
handed it to Joseph first. He shook hishead,
and declined taking it,
Drink Joe I" said his father.
81 do not wish any again sir, replied
Joseph
His father looked at him moment, and
then said roughly Did you go to that
| temperance meeting, Joe ~
Yes, sir, he replied.
+" Did you sign the pledge
"Yes, sir. ="
What did you do that for, Joe ~
:" Because, father" said Joe hesitatinGl y
4" If ever | am a man, do not want to be a:
you arc"
His father blushed, turned pale, stood
confused moment, and then opened th'
door and dashed both jug and pitcher int
pieces saying
You shall have a father you won't b
ashamed to be like"
From that hour he has never taken any
thing that can intoxicate and is happy hlm
self, and renders his family happy besides
and | will venture to say that Joseph vii
have On answer ready for any one who ask
him, " What good will it do to sign tn
pledge

that when he uttered the following sentence,

general restlessuess
"And verify, religion and politics do seem,
nowadays, to be as thoroughly divorced as

desire. In other departments of life, com.

be destitute of these qualities. But in poll

now upon principles and objects for which he
