Jones is probably the most influential. and
certainly one of the ablest, Democrats in
Tennessee. He was President of the last
Democratic State Convention which sent
delegates to Charleston. His voice will he

1t was almost hopeless attempt but it was
all that he could do. And here the little hero

heart yet large measure of calmness aud

tempest had all at once rushed under the multi.
tude of wings, the whole flock rose simultaEe.
ously into the air, aud before the king could
recover from his surprise, they were careering,
with loud screams towards the rich meadows,
bordering the lake, over which they quickly
spread themselves iu all possible directions.
AT the first outbursts the royal herdsman
called "halt," with all his might; he bran
dlshed and tried hard to crack the whip, but
extracted no sound which could intimidate the
Court Gardener. He then ran to and fro, un-
I'll, teemiDg with perspiratioD, and yielding TO
adverse fate, he reseated himself on the tree
stump, and, leaving the geese to their own de-
vices, quietly awaited the return of his mes
senger.
"The boy was right, after all" said be to
himself: it is easier to govern couple of
millions of men than a flock of plaguy geese
and court gardener can do deal OF mischief
Meanwhile the boy had reached the bench,
found the book, and sped back IN triumph, little
dreaming of the discontinue his substitute had
experienced. But when, on coming close up
10 the king, he looked round 10 vain for his
charge, and still worse, when their vociferOus
cackllng led his eyes in the direction of the
forbidden meadow, he was so overwhelmed
that, letting fall the book, he exclaimed, half
crying with grief and vexation:
"There we have il! knew how it would
be Did not say from the first you understood
nothing2 And what is to be done now can
never get them together by myself You must
help, that's fact"
The king consented; the herdboy placed
him at one corner, showed him how to move
his outstretched arms up and down, whilst he
must shout with all his might; and then the
boy himself set out, whip in hand, to gather in
the farthest scattered Of the flock.
The king did his best, and after terrible ex-
ertions, the cackling runaways were once
more cUngregated on their allotted territory.
But now the boy gave free vent to his indig-
nation, rated the king soundly for neglect, and
wound up all by declaring: "NeVer shall any
one get nay whip from me again, or tempr me,

No; not to the king himselfF'
You are quite right there, my fine fellow"
said the good.natured Macmillan, bursting in

the boy. in high dudgeon.
"Well, look ye nOw," said the monarch,

The king quickly took up his book, saying,
as he handed four additional swanzigers to The
astonished lad; " Don't be angry with me, my
boy give you my word, I'll never undertake
to herd geese again.
| The boy fixed doubling gaze on the mys-
terious donor of such unexamped treasure,
then added, with wise shake of the head -

which has for its object complete restoration
of harmony. AS long ago as October, 1858, a
standing rule was adopted in the Local Preach
ers' Association, at New York, prohibiting
the discussion Of, any sectional subject" The
next meeting was held in Baltimore, last Octo-
Der, when The rule in question was religiously
observed. The meeting of 1850 will take
