Mrs. JORDAN AND THE METHODIST
PREAcHER-Whilst the celebrated Mrs.
Jordan was performing, once. at Chester,
her laundress was arrested for debt of
eight pounds sterling, which Mrs. Jordan
paid. Walking out in the afternoon of the
same day she was compelled to take shelter
from shower of rain under a porch,
where she was espied by the liberated
widow, who fell upon her knees and
blessed her-the children, distressed at
the position of their mother, contributing
to make up very affecting scene. Mrs.
Jordan could not conceal the tear of feeling
STOPPING to kiss the children, she slipped
some money into the hands of the mother,
saying, "There, there, it's over; go, good
woman, God bless you; don't say another
word" This interesting episode was
witnessed by another person, who had
taken shelter near to the spot, and who
now came forward, exclaiming, with deep
sigh, "Lady, pardon the freedom of a
stranger! but would that the world were
all like thee!" The penetrating eye of
Thalia's votary soon developed the profess
sion of her new acquaintance, whose coun-
tenance and attire declared him to be a
Methodist preacher. After listening to a
brief sermon on the sisterly love that had
been evinced, and of the fulfilled command
to feed the hungry and relieve the dis
tressed, Mrs. Jordan interrupted the dis
course, by observing, "Ah! you are a
good old soul, dare say; but you'll not
ike me when I tell you that ANA play
er." The preacher, with complacent
countenance, remarked, "The Lord bless
thee! whoever thou art; and as to thy call
ing, if thy soul upbraid thee not, the Lore
forbid that | should" Thus reconciled
and the rain having abated, they left tn
porch together, on the way to Mrs. Jor
dams dwelling. The offer of the preach
er's arm was accepted, and the old street
of Chester beheld the serious disciple @
Wesley walking arm-in-arm with the fe
male Roscius Of comedy.

The Spiritualst controversy in Boston
wakes hot and interesting. Willis, the
student expelled from Harvard University,
AS humbugger, has found host of cham
pions who insist that the marvels which
are executed in his presence, are through
supernatural agency. Prof. FELTON, offers
five hundred dollars, for demonstration
of the alleged power of "the spirits to
move tables, play musical Instruments,
etc., independent fcarnal or obvious phys
ical agency The n. Y. Tribune says it
holds this proposition is remarkably
fair one, and that the Spiritualists must
lose ground if they fail to meet it triumph
antly. 1t may be very true that the desig-
mated judges are prejudiced against the
Spiritual hypothesis-it may be that they
would not be persuaded though one rose
from the dead-it may be that their stub
born skepticism, or some of the conditions
which will be exacted on the skeptical side,
will obstruct the so-called manifestations;
but if Prof Agassiz and his associates are
not forced to admit that tables, &c. are
moved by some power unknown to their
philosophy, then the star of Splritualism
will grow dim in and around the city of No
tions." The Spirtualists must come up to
the scratch, or say no more. Let them
show a committee of sharp-sighted, scien-
tific men that tables are moved and mu
sical instruments played-in day light,
where the mediums" can have no contac
with them, and where there will be moth
ing to prevent clear look into the opera
tion-by som power viewless and unac
countable when the Spiritualist hypothesis
is excepted, aud there will be basis o
fact to talk about-Cin. Com.

Charles Fenno Hoffman
His disease is of peculiar form, and, DR..
Corwen tells me, presents the only instance
he ever met with of halucination of fire
senses-touch, taste, sight, smell and
hearing. The most distressing indications
of his disease are exhibited in his fancies
that somebody is touching, or pressing.
or pinching him, or that he sees persons
and objects, which trouble and disturb
him.
A trace of the alteration is apparent in
his reminding me that our last meeting
was many more than sixteen years ago.
and with sudden turn, forgetting the
lapse of time, to make polite inquiry at
ter young lady's health, as if he had
parted with her but yesterday. The cas-
rlal visitor will fail to detect traces of in
sanity in Mr. Hoffman, but will ordinarily
be pleasantly impressed by his elaborate
politeness and courtly demeanor. His
intervals of perfect tranquility are rare.
but he is rarely much excited, and never
violent. I hear, with much regret, that
there is almost no hope of any permanent
improvement in the case of Mr.. Hoffman.
and that our best expectation for him can
reach no higher than that he may long sur
vive, bathed in pleasant delusions Of the
memory, to do the honors of the house,
and sadly to remind the visitor, that be-
tween the towering intellect and insanity.

A good clergyman wishing to be
rid Of his horse, and try for better
one, directed his old negro man to
sell bis beast for what be would fetch,
or to exchange him for another, add
ing at the same an anxious caution
not to deceive the purchaser, and
even enumerating the faults of the an.
imal. lest one should be overlooked.
Remember, Pompey, he has four

Pompsy jogging along. and con-
ming over the list to himself, as the
old lady did her luggage, "big box, lit
tie box, band box, bundle" was over
taken by man On horseback, who en-
tered into conversation, and among
other toplcs, made some inquiries a.
bout the horse.
Pompey told his story; said that
his master had charged him to tell the
horses faults to the purchaser. with.
out reservation.
SWELL, what are they?" said the
stranger, who had a mind for a swap.
"Dere is four, massa," said Pom.
ipey, "and don't remember 'em all
very we'll just now, but

BEL" said the other.

:Why, when be comes to a brook,

"What next?"
Il can't anyhow remember de cd.
ers, said Pompey, peering up into the
clouds with one eye, rraectingly.
The stranger concluded to strike
barg lin and exchange bis own horse,
which hid not quite so genteel an air
AS the par,on's. for this nearly unex-
animal. 1t was not long
before tue clerical steed stumbled and
threw his rider into a ditch. Picking
himself up as well as be could. he ex-
anlined his new purchase little more
closely, and discovered that the horse
Was entirely blind.
Finding Pompey again without much
difficulty. his wrath burst forth in .
torrent Of reprOaches: /

mean? This horse is broken-kneed

Getting Rich by Trading.

! A newly married couple in the Ole
Bay State = before the revolution,
commenced the world with no other
paIrimony than a barrel Of rum. On
this they determined to commence
business for living. Accordingly,
they opened what they called a shop
or store, and advertised for sale at re-
tail-but as wary and cautious mer-
chants, they resolved to forswear the
credit system, and to sell not dram
but for ready mo Iey. A dram was
soon sold, and James had groat for
it. This was good capital to begin
upon. The next day James became
thirsty, AMI arranged with his wife
to pay her the groat for which she
dealt him out a dram. But why
should'not the trade be reciprocated :?
Why should not Betty have rights as
we'll as James ? And so the next
day she purchased dram Of her hus-
band, and paid him a groat for the
Same. Thus, shrewd plan of mutu-
al exchanges having been devised, the
cash kept constant circulation be-
tween james and Betty, till the bar,
rel was empty, and they both became
confirmed drunkards Much of the
benefits of the trade in this country
are we'll illustrated by the anecdote
of james aud Betty. 1t is mere
passing Of the groat around-a busi-
ness that aids in the oxlravagancs and
consumption Of the people, but neith-
er adds to nor encourages the produc.
ion of any means Of subsistence.

A Spendlhrift Election.

A London correspondent of the
National Intelligencer, allueing to the
recent elections throughout Great
Britain, says that great improve
ment has taken place within the last
half century. He says that in 1868,
a contest took place, which was known
as the spendthlift election. The pol
icy lasted for fourteen days, and the
candidates were Lords Halifax, North.
ampton and Spencer In proof of
the corruption, it is recorded that,
though the number of real electors
did not exceed $50, no fewer than
ll49 persons voted. !. The almost
princely mansions of Horton, Castle
Ashby and Althorpe, were thrown
open to all voters, and when the eel
lars at Horton were drained Of all
the old port, and Lord Halifax had to
place his claret before the carousers;
they declared they would never vote
for a man who gave them sour port,
and went over in body to Lord
Northampton at Castle Ashby! The,
election was referred to scrutiny Of
the House of Commons; the inquiry
lasted for six weeks, during which
sixty covers were daily laid at Spen-
Ger House for members, whose names
were taken down each day. 1t re-
suited in the number of votes being
declared equal, and was finally decided
by a toss-Lord Spencer winning and
nominating the member. The elec-
ton cost Lord Spencer 100000,
and each OF the other lords fl5N, 600
almost incredible sum-. when they
are doubled, to express their present
value; about S4,000,000, represent.
ing the total expenditure in money of
this day! Lord Halifax never recov-
cred the blow. Lord Northampton
cut down his trees. sold his furniture,
and w,nt abroad for the rest of his
life. dying in Switzerland. Thtre is

We miss thee at home. yes we miss thee,
Since you sloped without bid ling aiieu;
Aud prayers have since daily been offered
That somesohere you'll get your full due
That to wish you might ever be haunted,
With visions your conscience could trace;
Would be usel ess, for Williams like you, sir,
Don't have that invaluable grace.
And the friends that once kindly availed thee,
Of ''means'' all thy wants to supply;
Never dreamed of thy acting the scoundrel
But they've now found different reply.
The shadows of evening are gathering,
o. where is the wanderer now;
The hail-stones like hens eggs are falling,
Let us hope they may visit thy brow.
But bear on thy bosom this message,
Well watch thee where'er thou mayst roam
And if ever you want good fiogging.
Just make your appearance at home.
