An Incident.

A touching case was presented lately
to the consideration and charity of one Of
the Good Samaritans, who now take care
of the sick, relieve the destitute and feed
the starving. A boy was discovered in
the mothing laying in the grass of Clsi-
borne Street, evidently bright and intelli
gent, but sick. A man who has feeling
Of kindness strongly developed. went to
him, shook him by the shoulder, and ask
ed him what he was doing there.
Waiting for God to come for me, said
he.
what do you mean?' said the gentle
man, touched by the pathetic tone Of the
answer and the condition Of the boy, in
whose eye and blushed face he saw the
evidence of the fever.
God sent for father and mother and
little brother said he, and took them
away to his home up in the sky, and mo-
ther told me when she was sick that God
would take care of me. | have no home,
nobody to give anything, and so came
out here and have been looking 60 long
up in the sky for God to come and take
care eff me, as mother said he would. He
will come, won't he? Mother never told
lie.'
yes. my lad said the man, overcome
with emotion, He has sent me to take
care of you
You should have seen his eyes flash
and the smile of triumph break over his
face as he said ..
Mother never told me lie, sir, but
you've been SO long on the way
What lesson of trust, and how this
incident shows the effect of never deceiV-
ing children with idle tales. AS thep
mother expected, when she told her son
; God would take care of him, he did, by
touching the heart of this benevolent man
with compassion and love to the little
stran ger--New-OrleanS Delta.

An Election Anecdote.

The following aneCdote comes in very
well, at the present time, and our resders
will probably think Of several old soldiers
in this vicinity who have done their full
share of suffering
The story is told Of revolutionary
soldier, who was running for Congress
Itappears that our hero was opposed by a
younger man, who had never been to the
wars, and it was the wont Of revolution
ary' totell the people Of the hardshps he
had endured. Says he
Fellow citizens, | have fought and bed
for my country--I helped whip the Brit.
ish and Indians. have slept upon the
field Of battle with no covering but the
canopy of heaven. l have walked over
frozen ground till every footstep was
marked with blood
Just about this time one Of the 'sover-
eigns, who had become very much affec-
ted by this tale of woe, walks up in front
Of the speaker, wiping the tears from his
eyes with the extremity of his coat tail,
and interrupting him, says
Did you say you fought the British and
the Ingines!
'YeS,' responded the old revolution
ary.'
Did you say you had slept on the
ground, while serving your country, with.
out any kiverP
Yes, sir, did,
Did you say you had followed the en-
envy Of your country over frozen ground
till every footstep was marked with blood?'
Yes exulantly replied the speaker.
We'll, then,' says the fearful 'soveT'
eign,' as he gave sigh of painful emo
ton, iii be hanged if don't think
you've done enough for your country,
and III vote for the other man.
