Gratitude-Thanksgiving.

Accent history informs Us of a certain sol.
dier, who, being on board vessel, which
was wrecked By violent storm, was cast
on shore. A man. who had his house built
nesr the sea, happily was at the place. and
witness of his distress and danger. With
al humane and charitable tenderness, he
wen. to the relief of the dying stranger.
He carried him to his house, and laid him
on his own bed, revived, nourished, com fof-
ted. and fof fotty days supplied him freely
with all the necessaries and conveniences
which his languishing condition required
The soldier, thus rescued from q terrible
death vas ineesseut in the warmest express
ions of gratitude, & promised his benefactor,
that as he himself could not reEder him the
reward his extraordinary benevolence mef-
tied, he would represent his conduct to the
king. with whom, on account of important
services rendered him. he had some iufu-
ence, from whom, he assured him, he would
feceive retufns somewhat propor:ioned to
his humanity. Having entirely recovered,
and expressed desire to return to his home,
bis benefsctor supplied him with motley,
ana dismissed him with blessing from his
hospitsble dwelling. Sometime after the
soldier presented himself to the king; he re-
lated the disaster that had befaleh the ship,
he recoun.ed his tt1isfoftunes, stating that
he had lost everything and almost life itself.
And now, having filled the ear of his Roy /
Auditor With the tale of his own sufferings,
you are ready to hear him speak in glowing
terms of the extraordinary kindness of his
noble deliveref. But he says not word in
his praisei he asks not for single favor;
and had his baseness gone no further than
this, it had been well. But it did. He had
looked with a covetous eye upon the poss-
essions of the man who had preserved his
life, and was now 50 destitute Of oil sense
of gratitude, as to request the king to be.
stow Oh him the estate upon which he had
SO tenderly treated. The king, without ex-
mination, granted his request, and this in
CRATE returned to his presenter, and requite
his goodness by taking forcible possession
if his properly, leaving him and his family
on a state of utter disolation.
The injured man, astonished and provoked
by such unparalleled ingratitude, determin-
ed, instead of submitting to his wrongs, to
seek relief; he accordingly wrote to the king,
and represented his own and ths soldiers
conduct in lively and affecting manner.
The hing was fired with indignation; he
ordered that justice should be done without
delay, that the possession should be imme-
diately returned to the man whose charit-
able offices had been SO horribly repaid. and
having seized the soldier. caused these
words to be brande d on his forehead" The
UNGRArEFyL GUEST"
How many, in our land, living upon the
bounty of kind Providence, are exhibiting
daily the character f''the ungrateful guest,"

How Mr.. Beecher came into
the Church.

Rev. Henry Ward Beecher lectured on
Tuesday evening to an immence audience
"a perfect jam-in his own church, in
Brookin. on "The Bargain Makers" in the
"Plymoru Course" The edfic was throng-
ed in every part. He was introduced by
Mr. Theodore Tilton, of the Independent,
with the following remarks Mr.. Tilton
said:
The lecturer insists upon being ifitro-

the other day from Lteh6eld. BY the side
of an old house in that old tod stood birch

Great laughter At all events, it has been
hinted that it was the birch thatfrst brought
our friend into the church. [Applause and
lsughterl-but having been thus vigorously
coaxed in, he fourd the church SO good q
place that he built his nest IN it, and has
been singing like robin ever

THE CAMELs.-We visited Parsons Wharf
on Tuesday, to witness feat of strength
performed by one of Mrs Watson's camels.
OF which there were near dozen on the
wharf, of all sizes and ages The camel
loaded was one of the largest. Upon the
word OF command being given, the camel
lay down, ready to receive his load, which
consisted OF five bales Of hay, weighing in
the aggregate over l,400 pounds, which were
hrmly bound to the pannier placed upon the
animals hump. Upon the utterance of COM
mand by the native keeper, the huge animal
rose, without any apparent effort, to his feet.
and walked off in a stately manner along the
wharf and through the city. We were in
formed that the same camel had had 1900
pounds placed upon him, with which enorm-
Gus weight he easily rose.
The animals are all exceedingly tractable.
and seem to possess much affection for anv
one who treats them kindly, as an example
Of which Mrs. W. informed us that one of
them, pretty white one, which she had
petted, would always kiss her, when she
went within kissing distance, which fact we
really thought proved the animal to possess
an excellent taste, as well as an affectionate
disposition. In their native country the
average load for full grown camel is some
eight hundred pounds, with which they per-
form long journeys over deserts, with but lit
tie food or water
We doubt not that with the abundant for
age found in all parts Of Texas, and full
supply Of water generally, the camel will
improve in strength and general appearance,
and be able to transport larger loads, at a
more rapid pace, than in his native country.

Mrs. Cora l.. Y. HATon-AN IMMACULATE
CoNcErrtoN.-At the Cooper Institute, on
Friday evening, Mrs. Cora L. V. Hatch de-

1t was metaphysical not theological one,
and to do her justice, We will say, whether
through her own agency or the agency of the
spirits, she played her part well, better pro-
bebly than if her husband (who, like an old
Bluebeard, had laid aside three wives before
he had an affinity for herr was present. By
the way, Mrs. Hatch charges Dr. Hatch with
taking the proceeds of her lectures, and de-
voting them to his own use, leaving her pen
niless-hence she separated from him, and is
now sueing for divorce. Judge Edmonds
has decided that the Doctor was an unfit man
for young and delicate female" to live
with; whilst the latter declares that tine es-
arrangement of his wifes affection is owing TO
IAN inversion of her conjugal feelings pro-
duced by a too frequent entrancement"-
How a man of the Doctors experience in
wives could have made such n statement, es-
pecially when he was ihe party who benefit
ted most by her enhancement" we are at q
loss to know But il is not on account of his
melnness or i'll treatment that Judge Ed
monds decided the Unmatched ought to sep-
arate but chiefly because he is land the
truth Of the charge is admitted by himself) }

A CURIOUS CASE IL TENNEssE EE.-A new law
in Tennessee Furnishes the crime of obtaining
money or goods by false pretenses, as peni-
Tertiary ohense. Some time since, poor de-
graded female Of that State was arrested on
the charge Of a grog seller, of whom in better
days sha had been u liberal customer, that
she had defrauded him Of 25 cents worth of
liquor by false representations. The jury be-
fore whom she was tried found her guilty,
but recommended her to the mercy of the
Court The Court, disregarding this recon-
mendation sent her to the penitentiary for
three years. To remedy such an act Of in
justice, the aid of the Supreme Court of the
State was invoked, and the Judges of that
Court expressing the opinion that the law in
question was never intended to include cases
of such petty character, reversed the iudg-
ment and passed an order that the woman
be set at liberty
