"SEARCH THE SCRIpTuREs.n- Some forty or
fifty years ago there was telling sermon
preached in the "Old Bay State" by famous
minister, in which occurred the following droll
passages:
"My dear brethren, God works in q mysteri-
ous way, and amt above using the humblest
means to bring his critters to their senses, when
he sees them slothful in business and a-gong
down to hell lwith his eyes shut; and here's a
case in point, which II affords solemn warning
to all who neglect this great duty. Some time
ago, knew man down at Marblehead Point
IA fisherman-a desperate, wicked man, pro-
fame swearer, drunkard, who never darkened
the door of a meeting house, or took delight in
holy things. He had family--a wife, three
sons and two daughtcrs-all bad as HIMSELF all
a-going straight down to hell as fast as their legs
could carry them. But at last they were brought
to their senses in this wise, and from limbs of
Satan transm0grided into children of light
Once upon time there was great trouble in
the heads of the family. II was long since they
had moved or raked, and so to speak. there was
varmin in the grass. They all got desperate
uneasy, and to come to the point at once, ther,
was o loud cry for the fine-tooth comb. But my
friends, nobody knewwhere it was. 1t couldn'
be foundl And SO 1t went on from bad to worse
Scratchin' wouldn't do-'twas too bad for look
in. They hunted every where for the fine -tootl
comb-from garret to cellar, and from cellar t
garret. They ransacked every drawer, but i
couldn't be found. Here the preacher pause,
and looked around, then went on in low sol
emn, and emphatic tone: "at length it wa
found, to the great joy and everlasting saliva
tion of all that family. And, my friends, ,cher
do you think they found it? say ,ohere do yo,
think they found it ? A long pause-"the,

They found 1t in the old family Bible, (in voic
Of napsder) and the dnst lay so thick on it tina

scene I'm a Ladx,s Chamber.

One warm night, one of the warmest Of the
season, young lady at the "West End was
excessively frightened by little circumstance
which transpired about the hour OF midnight.
This young lady, whose beauty Is only equaled
bv her mOdesty; and whose "eye's dark charm"
has caused more than one waistcoat to palpitate,
had retired to her chamber, where, after laying
aside the greater portion of her wearing appa-
rel, she committed herself to the tender embra-
ces of Morpheus whose soothing influences were
aided by the gentle breath Of zephyr, who came
in at the open window and famed her cheeks
with his feathery wings. In word, she was
snoozing finely; or, to use the language of
modern bard
'tSleep on her velvet eyelids lightly pressed,
And dreamy sighs upheaved her snowy breast,
While starbeams thro the window softly creeping,
Stole to her couch and trembling there stood peepng
1t was, as we said, about midnight, when the
young lady was aroused from her delicious
slumbcr by hearing noise at her window.
Half unclosing her eyes, she was startled by the
sight of corpulent FORM apparently struggling
to gain admission to her chamber through the
open window 1t struck her at once that the
intruder had been caught by the rear of his un-
mentionables by nail or some other sharp
instrument, as he seemed struggling with firm
determination TO enter. Her first thought was
to faint-her second, to give the fellow push
her third, to jump out Of the window as soon
as he jumped in--her fourth, to scream, which
was Immediately carried into effect. The whistle
of the locomotive on the Iron Mountain road
when ii gave its first snort on the 4th of July was
but whisper to the screams of the young girl
The whole house and half the neighborhood
were awakened by the outcry.
The old folks, three famale servants, and two
big brothers, rushed to the rescue, and broom
sticks, mop-handles, and boot-jacks flashed in
the gas light as the household entered the
chamber of the frightened beauty. An exami-
nation of the figure in the window dspelled the
fears of oil, and changed the screams of the
young lady into shouts of laughter.
The imaginary ''fat man" was only her own
darling hoped skirt, which she had hung near
the window, and which the wind had inflated
and set in motion. There was no more sleeping
in the house that night
The happy termination of the adventure pnt
the family into such good humor, that they
laughed and talked until breakfast time
Young ladies should be careful about the dispo-
sal of their hoops when they go to bed.-&.
