Ruse of Revolutionary Tory Lady.

A gentleman residing in Kingston,
r. l., writes the following revolutionary
anecdote to the Boston Traveller :--"In
l77S, while our country was Al war with
England, the tories, as they were called,
unwilling to espouse their country's
cause, {" left their country for their
country's good" Among a number
who thus lett for the British dominions
in Nova Scotia, was my aunt r,
with her tory husband. During the
war, an American privateer was seen ap-
preaching l., whore my aunt and
other Americans were located. At tho
approach of the ugly looking stranger,
all the Americans fled except my aunt,
who kept small store at the place Of
entry. Having secured what she could
from the shop, she FASTENED to her house
to secure her valuables there, also but
the officers were too close upon her heels
to allow her to secrete much. They
came upon her just as she was entering
a chamber which had previously been
left in confusion. Seeing the officers SO
near her she turned instantly, and with
her usual quickncss Of invention-for
she was always ready for a turn-said ts
the leader, IL hope you will pardon
the appearance of my room, as we have
just had the small pox in it, and have
not had time to put things to rights since
the patients were carried off," 1t was
"a word and blow" as we say. In his
haste to escape, the officer turned upon
his heel, and in turning fell over the
staircase, and rolled down two fights Of
stairs into the street, dropping from its
scabbard on elegantly mounted sword,
which he left behind as prize to my
aunt. Picking himself up as best he
could he was joined by his comrades,
and very soon the privatecr had her
sails spread, and was out Of sight and
out of danger, leaving my aunt to laugh
over her well timed stratagem, and to
hunt for her money box, which was
found some months after among the our
rent bushes in the garden, just where
she placed it herself when she took it
from the shop"

She was a pretty, little brown thing,

and generous heart Chcrry-ripe lips,
often parted to reveal two rows Of pcarly
teeth, as the merry laughter burst gush
ingly out--6gure rather petite, but full
and GRACEFUL foot and hand of fairy

satin--such were some of her outward
attractions Add pretty gay, coquet'

INGENIOUS REvENGE.--The Paris
correspondent of the New York Times,
says the following anecdote of Horace
Nernet, is amusing the Parisians The
artist was coming from Versailles to the
City in the cars. In the same oompart-
ment with him were two ladies whom he
had never seen before, but who evident
ly we're acquainted with him. They ex-
amined him very minutcly, aud COM
mented upon HIM quite treely-upon
his martial bearing, his hale old age, his
military pantaloous, &c, The painter
was annoyed, and determined to put an
end to the persecution. AS the train
passed under the tunnel of St, Cloud,
the three travellers were wrapped in
complete darkness. Vernct raised the
back of his hand to his mouth and kissed
it twice, violently. On emerging from
the obscurity, he found that the ladies'
had Withdrawn their attention from him,
and we're accusing each other of having
been kissed by man in the dark. AS
they arrived in Paris, Nernet on leaving
them, said" Ladies, | shall be puzzled
all my life by the inquiry, Which o.!
these two ladies was it that kissed me-! y

The Tragedian Booth and the Bible

A friend tells US an anecdote of Booth
the great tragedian, which We do not
recollect baving seen in print. 1t oc-
Cured in the palmy days of. his fame
before the sparkle Of his great mind had
been dimmed by that bane of genius
strong drink.
Booth and several friends had been
invited to dine with an old gentleman
in Baltimore, of distinguished kindness
urbauity and piety. The host, though
disapproving of theatres the theatre-g go
ing, had hoard so much of Booths re-
narkable powers, that curiosity to see
the man had, in this instance, overcom,
all his seruplcs aud prejudices. Afte
the entertainment was over, lamps light
ed, and the company rcseatsd in tn,
drawing room, some one requested
Booth, as a particular favor, and one
which all present would doubtless ap-
prcciate, to read aloud the Lords Pray
er. Booth expressed his willingness to
afford this qualification, and all eyes we're
turned e1pectantly upon him.
Booth rose slowly and reverently from
his chair. 1t was wonderful to watch
the play of emotions that convulsed his
countenance. He became deathly pale,
and his eyes, turned trembling upward,
were wet with tears. AS yet be had
not spoken. The silence could be felt.
1t became absolutely painful, until at
last the spell was broken as if by an
electric shock, aud bis rich toned voice,
from white lips, syllabed forth, Our
Father who art in Heaven" ETC., with
pathos and solemuity that thrilled all
hearers.
He finished. The silence continued.
Not a voice was heard or muscle NOV
cd in that wrapt audience, until, from a
remote corner Of the room, a subdued
sob was heard, aud the old gentleman
their host, stepped forward with stream
ing eyes and tottcring frame, and seized
Booth by the hand.
Sir" said he, in broken accents
you have afforded me pleasure for
which my whole future life will feel
grateful. am an old man, and every
day, from my boyhood to the present
time, thought | had repeated the
Lords Prayer, but l have never heard
it before-nerer ~
You are right" replied Booth -
"to read that prayer AS it should be
read, ha, cost ME the severest study and
labor for thirty years, and am far from
being satisfied with my rendering Of that
wonderful production. Hardly one
person in ten thousand comprehends
how much beauty, tenderness, and gran
deur can be condensed in space so
small and words so simple. That Pray
er of itself sufficiently illustrates the
truth Of the Bible, and stamps upon il
the seal of divinity"
So great was the effect produced
(says our informant, who was present,
that conversation was sustained bat Z
short time longer in subdued monosylla
bles, aud almost entirely ceased ant
soon after, at an early hour, the com
pany broke up, and retired to their sever
/ al homes with sad faces and full hearts

Nay all eternal life, its worth more keenly feel.
A jus, command to seek life at Thy Throne,
Where all who will may have it ss their own:-
That all may yet escape the evil snare.
Oh! God, protect US from world of care.
To all who read Thy word and truly feel
The light Of Heavens love, to such reveal,
And grant that victory over death be ours.
This aching heart, Lord, free from earthl,
powers,
For the days Of man while journeying here,
Are less of happiness and more severe;
And though sorrow surrounds us to the tomb,
Thy faithful few in paradise will bloom;
"Thy faithful few THE number, Lord, in
crease,
And many fettercd now by sin, release,
Our faith so weak, grow strong and stronger,
Till Gabrels trump sounds, Time is no longer
Then Christ, subjected to an unholy kiss,
Be praised throughout an eternity of bliss.

Texas in OIdem Time.

An old inhabtant of Texas relates the fol

early days of that State:
lie once had occasion to make a Journey of
some thirty or forty IN les, and his wife

should have to camp out.) among which were
some nicely baked saleratus biscuits-shc
having by some chance obtained small sup
ply Of flour, and retained sufficient recollcc-
ton of the luXuries of former days to enable
her to do them up brown'-he started very
early, and the way being lonesome, he rode
fast for some time, until he emerged into II
large prairie, when be observed some person
on horseback u mile or two ahead. lie
spurred up his horse to Oyertike the traveller,
keeping his eye upon him all the time when
he saw him 90 down into the bottom of Il
small creek, at the crossing. lie rode ON
very quietly, expecting each moment to see
the traveller = head appear above the horizon,
until more than sufficient time had elapsed
for him to emerge from the bottom, when

had shot him with an arrow. So lac stccrcd
