He "MusT BE MADE TO SlNG.'-.John
Abel was a native of England, at the time OF
the reign of Charles the second, and was cele-
brated for his fine countertenor voice. ne was
sent for at court but evading to go by ieign-
ing some slight excuse, he was COMMANDED 10
attend. At the palace, he was placed IN a
chair in the middle of a spacious hall, and SUD
denly drawn up to q great height, wfen the
king and his attendants appeared In o gaiiery
opposite to him. At the same time a numner
of wild bears were turned into the hall. Inc
king bid him choose whether he would sing OF
be let down among the ferocious beasts. Abel
chose the former, and declared afterwards thai
he never sang so well on any occasion before
From this circumstance originated the saying

Whole PART1cuLARs.-A good story is told
OF all old lady who had received q letter from
her son., u sailor, on board o merchantmen,
which ran thus:
"Have been driven into the Bay of Fundy
by a pampoose right in the teeth. 1t blowed
great guns, and carried away the bowsprit ;
a heavy sea washed overheard the binnacle and
companion ; the captain lost his quadrant, and
couldn't take any observation for fifteen days;
at last we arrived at Halifax"
The old woman, who could not read herself,
got a neighbor to repeat it to her three or foul
times, until she thought she had got it BY
heart. She then sailed out to tell the story
ooh, my poor son!"
"Why, what's the matter, mother? L hope
no mischief" .-ts-.l
"Oh, thank God, he's safe! but he has been
driven into the Bay Of Firmament by, a bam
boozle right in the teeth--it blowel grea'
guns, and they carried away the pulpit
heavy sea washed overheard the pinnacle o
the tabcrnacle-the captain lost his conlura
tion, and couldn't get any salvation for titee,
days-at last they arrived safe at HalleluJah.
la, bless us what a wonder they WASH,
beat to atoms. WE'LL, l wouldn't be a sailor.
