"KEEP OUr THE BlACR HUJL There ia
a good moral to the following anccdotc:
Rev. Mr. Bukley, of Colchester, CT, was
famous in bis day as clsuist and sage
counsellor. \ church in his neighborhood
had fallen into unhappy d.ysiou, and con-
tcntions which they were unable to adus,
among themselves. They deputed one of
their number to the venerable lkley for
his advice, with request tLat hc would
send 1t to them III writing. The matter,
were taken into serious consideration, and
the advice with nnch consideration commit
ted 10 writing. 1t 50 happened that Mr..
Bu,k'cy had a farm in the eXtremc part of
the town, upon which he intru,trl the ten.
ant; and to whom he must have b.cn about
transmitting letter at the same time; in
subscribing the two letters, the one for the
church was directed to the tenant, aud the
one for the tenant to the church.
The church was cou?Cnci TO hear the ad-
vice which was to settle all their disputes.
The Moderator read as follows: "Xou viii
see 10 the repair Of the fences, that they be
built high and strong, and YOU will take spe-
cial care Of the Old black bull" This mysti-
cal advice puzzled the church at first, but an
Interpreter among the more discerning ones
was found, who said, Brethren, this is the
very advice we most need the direction {,
repair the fences IS to admonish US to take
good heed in the admission and government
Of our members; we must guard the church
by our masters laws, and keep out strangs
cattle from the fold And we must in par
/ tcular manner set a watcufI, guard over the
UerA the old black bull who has done us so
much hurt Of late All perceived the wis
dom and fitness of Mr.. Buikiey's advice, and
resolved to be governed by it. The cOnse.
/ qucnrc was, All the animosi,cs subsided, and
/ harmony was restored TO the long afflicted
church What the subject Of the letter sent
/ to the tenant was, and what good effect it
! had On him, the story does not tel.

The Butter TREE.-On the banks Of the
Niger, in Africa, they have tree called the
Shea, from which excellent butter is oh.
tained. The tree is like our oak, and the
fruit somca hat resembles the Spanish olive
The kernel of the fruit is dried in the sun
and then boiled, and the butter thus oh.
taincd is whittier, lirmcr and of richer flavor
than that produced from the milk Of cows,
besides keeping sweet a year without salt.
The growth and preparation of this article is
one Of the leading objects Of African indus.
try, and it constitutes a main article of their
inland commerce. If present prices con.
tnuc, we suggest that our dealers import a
supply vegetable butter from Africa. Or

time since, story going the rounds of the
press that negro boy in Caddo Parish in
this State, had lately had u pair Of horns

not notice it, like many other statements
which go the rounds OF the press. The
Cadlo Gazette, however, contains a state
mcnt signed Thomas Adams, from which it
would seem that the rumor is certainly well
founded. Mr.. Adams says:

ing a regular and steady custom every Carriage is
built so that he FEELS no fear in selling them to his
best friends and customers He offers Carriages of
