AN UNEXPECTED ANswER.-An
English paper states that young dam
sci who is engaged and will shortly be
united to gallant son of Neptune,
lately visited the Mariners Charch.-
During the sermon the parson discussed
eioquently and with much earnestness
OF the dangers and temptations of the
sailor. He concluded by saying, " Is
there any one who thinks anything of
HIM who wears a tarpaulin hat and blue
Jacket, Or trousers made of duck p
In short, is there any one here who
cares aught? A little girl, a sister Of the
damsel, jumped up, and looking archly
at her sister, said, in tone loud enough
for every one to hear, g Yes, sir, our
Becky does.'

A BOY Attempts TO Murder his
Sister
LFrom the Memphis Argus.

= AOhl tuO 4ACAhp4IS III
We heard This morning of domestic
dispute which nearly ended in terri
bic tragedy. The son of resident of
tn S city, not more than fifteen wears
old, but full of the vices of fifty, has, it
seems been for sometime in the habit of
stealing into his fathers room at night
and stating from his pockets portions Of
whatever silver they might contain
Lervant after servant was suspected.
watched, charged, and sold, till finally
the boy was detect ed by an elder sister,
who met him coming out frcm his faith
er's room AZ two in the morning, with
bis handful Of quarters, dimes, etc.
She told him she would be obliged to
inform her father, and he coolly drew
knife from his pocket, and threateningly
told her that if she did he would ssstick
her" So earnest did he seem, that the
girl, actually frightened, said she would
not tell If he would promise to steal
no more. He did promise, but soon af-
ter returned to his old habit, increasing
the amount of his thetts till he one
night took from his fathers pocket book
a ten dollar bill. At breakfast yester~
day morning the father spoke of it in
anger; said he was satisfied that the
thetts were not perpetrated by the SER
wants, but by member of the family,
and asked the girl, who knew all about
1t, whether he did not supply her with
fare share OF pocket money; out came
the whole tale from the alarmed sister.
The boy, seeing his fathers eyes upon
him, tearlessly and rapidly drew a
knife, rushed on his sister, exclaiming,
Il told you if you told father I would
stick your The girl ran from him, the
father caught his son, who kicked and
bit at him, and was only mastered by
main force. He is now locked in
room, in which his chief pastime is
swearing vengeance on his sister. That
boy is likely to reach an elevated posi-
ton in this world.

a@ Beecher says of Blondin: cit is
very small thing for that fool to walk
across a cable with the roar Of Niagara
under him, carrying some BOBBY like
himself on his back, though ten thous-
and other fools go to cape and stare at
him. But for a man to walk across the
thread of daily life, carrying, not anoth-
er fool, but a soul with Immortality in
every faculty, potent, wonderful in
scope, and power, and susceptibility, so
as to keep it in balance, is not a small
thing. 1t requires him to be wide
awake-that is, to qodtch."
