4 DISCREET CLERGyMAN.---A Boston
correspondent of the Salem Gazette re-
lates the following anecdote:
" At the house of an eminent though
not aged d, D. in Boston, there was
visiting a lady of brilliancy and accom-
plishmcnt. A carriage drive before
dinner was proposed for the clergyman.
his wife, and the lady guest. The wife
of the clergyman was prevented from
being one of the party, and chaise ride
for the clergyman and the strange lady
was concluded on; whereupon, by diroc-
ton of the clergyman, two chaises drove
up at the appointed hour, into the hinder
one of which the clergyman seated the
lady, and handed her the reins, and then
took his seat in the forward one; and
thus in grave procession the two chaises
proceeded each with its single occupant
through the streets of this and neigh
boring city, till they reached the open
country, ard after short and very re-
freshing drive, returned to the clergy
mans house in the same demure and un-
Improbable order. Suffice it, that such
u careful minister in long pastorate
does notincur reproach of certain kind"

Dun HOMES What is their corner
stone but the virtue Of woman and where
does social wcll-being rest but in our
homes! Must VIC not trace all other
blessings of civilized life TO Che doors Of
our dwellings,? Are not our hearth
stones guarded by holy forms, conjugal,
flial and paternal love, the cornerstone
Of church and State, more sacred than
either, more necessary than both? Let
our temples crumble, capitols of State be
levelled with the dust, but spare our
homes. Let no socialist invade them
with his wild plan Of community Man
did not invent and he cannot improve or
abrogate them. A private shelter to
cover in two hearts dearer to each other
than all the world high walls to exclude
the profanc eye Of every human being
seclusion enough for children to feel that
mother is holy and peculiar namc-this
is home and this is the birth. place of
every secret thought. Here the church
and State must come for their origin and
support. Oh spare our homes The
love we experience there gives us our
faith in infinite goodness; the purity and
disintorestedness Of our home is our
fortaste, our earnest Of better world.
In relations there established and foster
ed do we find through life the chief So
lace and joy Of existence.
