A Curious WnL.-The Worcester (Mass)
Transcript gives the substance of the will OF the
late Jesse W. Goodrich, of that city, well known
as q strong advocate of the temperance cause
The document itself covers 80 folio pages, and
there is codicii containing 63 double columned
pages of printed matter Among the bequests
are copy of the Holy Bible to each of his
brothers, sisters, executors, &C., sixteen in all
Each successive owner of the volumes is to sign
family teetotal pledge that they will neither
make bug, sell, gips aacay or use any kind of al
cohoic or Intoxicating liquors, either for drink
ing, culinary, ,medicinal surgical or sacramentaI
purposes, nor use any tobacco, for the purpose
either of chewing smoking or snutfing, and that
by precept and example, and in all other suita-
BILE ways, at all times and places, to discounte-
nance all such uses" Other provisions of this
curious will are thus given:
HE then orders his executors to subscribe for
one copy for each Of themselves and his relatives
of some good temperance paper, advocating the
disuse of tobacco, and legal and moral suasion
combined,' for the suppression of liquor, thirty
copies in all for twenty-one years.
He then bequeaths 5000 to each of his living
sisters, provided they, each of them, within one
year, sign the family and teetotal pledge
"He then divides his property, subject to all
other bequests, among his relatives, payable ev-
cry fifth. tenth, fifteenth, and twentieth year,
provided that at the expiration of each period
they make affidavit that they have kept the an
ti-liquor, antitobacco pledge in its full extent"

AN INCIDENT OF BALTKLAvA.-When the light
brigade was preparing for action, the butcher
of the 18th lancers who had just been perform
ing his office, slaughtering sheep and oxen, made
his appearance in the field, without coat or
wascoat, his shirt sleeves rolled up, and face and
arms smeared with blod-a grotesque and terri
bic figure He mounted, a powerful charger,
and rode up to his troop. lie had no business
there, but the prospect of q bloody fray
was too strong to be resisted. He seized two
sabres, deliberately examined the temper and
edge, selected the sharpest, and threw the other
aside. He then, with equal GOODNESS, took out
a short black pipe, charged it, lighted it, placed
it in his mouth settling hmselfi in the saddle, and
rode with the "six hundred" into the VALLEY
of the Shadow of DEATH" This man was seen
amongst the Russian batteries, sabering the gun.
ners right and left, Staying with his own hand
at least six of the enemy, cutting his way in the
retreat through the swarms of Russian cavalry
which vainly sought to intercept the remnant Of
the gallant band, and wonderful to relate, he
rode back, still smoking his pipe as coolly as if
nothing had happened, without having received
q single scratch.-Dublin Freeman's Press.

MERIT AND PosITloN.-The difference be-
tween man of merit and man of position is
this: the latter is the man of his day, the for
lner is the man after his day.
There was King in England when Shaks-
peare lived there, and doubtless every child
knew his name familarly, but how many OF
them knew the name of the poor play writer 3
But now, almost every child who speaks the
English language knows of Shakespeare and his
writings-how many of them knows of James
and his writings? Very few. Thus the man
of high position died with his position and his
day; but the man of merit only began to live
when he died.
The author of "Don Quixot"e is known by
his works through the world, but who can
tell about the man of position, the king-if a
kng-or the mobiles, or fine gay ladies who liv-
ed when Cervantes was writing the adventures
of the Knight of the Ruful Countenance."
Who was Governor of Virginia when Patrick
Henry fired his fellow men with his eloquence 2
Yet every American boy knows of Patrick Hen
ry. And yet we think that the governor must
have been better known in his day than the or
ator.
Thus it is-position is q thing of to day, while
merit is thing of all time, and when joined to
that rarest of things, an upright, blameless
Christian life, it becomes star in eternity-a
never-endng light in the eternal sky OF truth.

sIN FAVOR OF THE HoG."-John Smith was
tried in Alabama for stealing hog worth one
dollar and half The theft was proved beyond
the shadow of doubt. The jury retired, to
make up ther virdict, to an adjacent grove of
trees and were not out long before they return
ed with verdict of ''guilty of hog stealin' in
fust degree" The ejudge told them that the YER,
dict was proper, except that they had omitted
to assess the value of the property stolen,
and that there was no degree to hog steal
ins, and to retire again and bring in their
verdict in proper form" Again they retired,
with pen, ink and paper, but rather nonplussed
with regard to Storm" They pondered long
and deeply over what he meant by torm Al
last old W. jim Turner, who had had been a
Justice of the peace in Georgia, with bright
countenance, and sly wink, as much as to say
Look at me boys-I understand thing or two"
wrote the verdict and returned to the court
house. One after another they filed in, old Jim
handed the verdict to the clerk, with anxious
pomposity, and sat down. Judge of the laugh
ter when the clerk read the following: I'VE
the jeurey pusilaaimously Jfnd the detsndsnt gil-
ty, in the sum Of dollar and 1-2 in Jau0r Of
the h00"
