A Yankee Trick.

week or too ago four creditors started from
Boston in the some train of cars, for the purpose
of attaching the property of a certain debtor in
the State of Maine. He owed each one sepa-
rately, and each was suspicious of the object Of
the other, but dared not say word about it,
So they rode, acquaintances all, talking upon
every thing except that which they had most at
heart. When they arrived at the depot at Far
mington, which was three miles from where the
debtor did business they found nothing to 'sput
them over the road" but a solitary cab, toward
which they all rushed. Three got in and refus-
ed admittance to the fourth, and the cab startM.
The fourth ran after and got upon the outside
with the driver. He asked the driver if he
wanted to sell his horse. He replied that he did
not want to-that he was not worth more than
$50, but he would not sell him for that He
asked him if he would take 500 for him.
eyes" said he. The fourth man quickly paid
over the money, took the reins and backed the
cab up to bank-slipped it from the harness
and tipped it so that the door could not be oper-
ed, and jumped upon the horses back and rode
off while the ''insitlers" were looking out of the
window feeling like singed cats. He rode to
lawyers and got a writ made and served, and
his debt secure, and got back to the hotel just
as the "insiders'' came up putting and blowing.
The cabman soon bought back his horse for
$50. The ''sold" men offered to pay the sum,
if the fortunate one, who found property sufi-
cient to pay his own debt, would not tell of it
in Boston,

Can Won Eat Crow 2"

Lake Mahopac was at the season so much
crowded, or rather the hotels in its immediate
vicinity were, that the farm houses were filled
with visitors. One of the worthy farmers resid-
ing there was especially worried almost to death
by boarders. They found fault with his table
this thing was bad, and that wasn't fit to eat

boarders.

"Bet you a hat"
The bet was made, a crow caught, and nicely
roasted but before serving up, they contrived
to season it with a good dose of Scotch snuff
Isaac sat down to the crow. He took a bite,
and began to chew away.

their most faithful and tried members, after
undergoing due probation, take charge Of
their religious interests in a manner some
what similar to the customs prevailing among
the Society of Friends in our own State
Their whole number in Syria has been es-
timated to be about 10000. Having at
different periods been prosecuted by the
Mahommedans, engaged in many wars with
their rivals, the Maronites, and repeatedly
called to take up arms in self-defence, they
are essentially warlike race, and every boy
becomes, at an early age, expert in the use
Of the lance, the dagger, the sword, and the
gun. They have been, if possible, more
tenacious in preserving their peculiar reli-
gion, even when completely surrounded by
the influence Of other sects, than the Jews.
The Maronites are also a warlike people.
every man being almost constantly armed,
and ready to defend himself or country from
attack. They are a sect of Eastern Chris
tians, first formed, it is supposed, about the
conclusion of the seventh century. They
differed from the church of that era, by con-
tending that the Saviour although he might
be supposed to have two wills because he
had two natures, had, in reality, only one
will, because it was absurd to suppose there
should be two free wills in one and the same
person. This heresy fell under the condem-
nation of General Council in $50, because
it was supposed to destroy the humanity OF
Jesus Christ, depriving it Of will and opera
tion
The Syrian mountaineers having embrac-
ed it under the teachings Of an ecclesiastic
named John Marc, the name of Maronites
has ever since adhered to them. In the
twelfth century they renounced their former
distinctive faith, and then became subject
to the jurisdiction of the Pope, for whom
they have great reverence but their priests
still marry, as in ancient times, and they
elect a local religious ruler, with the title ol
batrak, or patriarch of Antioch

1T SEEMS BUT YESTERDAY.
1t seems but yesterday, my love,
Since chattering side by side,
We oft were wont to stray, my love,
At mellow evcntide;
And careless pluck the closing flowers,
Or watch the setting sun.
Scarce dreaming in those blissful hours,
Life's battle had begun;
For yet no thorny cares or fears
Had cross'd our youthful way,
Though fled since then have many years,
1t seems but yesterday, my love,
1t seems but yesterday.
1t seems but yesterday, my love,
Though many years are gone, .
Since loved ones heard us say, my love,
The words that made us one.
We now our childrens children see
Go forth to seek the flowers,
Reminding us of days when we
Oft WANDERED forth with ours,
When thorny cares and anxious fears
Began to cross Our way;
Though fled since then have many years,
It seems but yesterday. my love,
1t seems but yesterday.

A DOUBLE CoMPLIMENT.-An action was
brought in the Bristol County Court to recover
the value of two casks herrings supplied in
1854, and on the judge asking the reason of the
unusual delay, the plaintiff said he had lost sight
of the defendant for some time and when he did
find him he could get no settlement. He re-
peatedly asked defendant for payment, and the
latter at length told him to :;go to the devil,
upon which the plaintiff said, II thought it high
time to come to your Honor" a remark which
was received with roars of laughter, in which
the learned Judge Joined.

RW You say a horse has no reason, but only
instinct, and that instinct is only word to COW
er the humiiating fact that you don't know
what you are talking about. Ignoble caveat
Why not be bold enough to say that when a
horse chooses between corn and fodder, it is
mind inpels him, and that he is as immortal as
yourself. May be you think this would be con-
descending. May be the horse, on his part, ap-
prehends your conclusion, and thinks you are as
great simpleton as himself with an additional
touch of vanity.

RSW Woman is like ivy-the more you are
ruined the closer she clings to you. A vile
bachelor adds: "Ivy is like woman, the closer
it clings to you, the more you are ruined" Poor

A BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.-The following
beautiful verse contains sentiment which
many Of our readers will recognize in feeling
they have no doubt experienced, but never knew
how so touchingly to express:
s'Oh never breathe lost ones name,
When those who loved that name are nigh;
1t pours lava through the frame
That chokes the breast and fills the eye;
1t strains chord that yields too much
Ofpiercing anguish in its breath,
And hand of mercy should not touch
A string made eloquent by death.''

sca'e? The Poet had the true idea, when
boldly declared

boldly declared,
Gone to destroy is murder by the law
And gibbcts keep the lifted hand in awe:
To murder thousands takes spccous name,
Wars glorious art, and gives immortal fame. !"
Thus by a very easy process of logic we reach
the conclusion that no real glory can attach to
the names and deeds of those who, to achieve
renown or to win the imperial purple, have
waded through a sea of human blood. All such
characters, who have fought against the cause
of right, deserve nothing but the eXecrations
and curses of humanity! Their fame is fnfamy.
But how is it with the self-conqueror Has
he just cause for war with himself? Most un-
doubtedly he has. Constituted of moral sense,
reason, judgment, and will as to his nobler ma
ture, and endowed with appetites, emotions and
passions as to his lower, the former; of necessity,
must rule the latter Their subordination to the
law of his reason and judgment is as necessary
to his happiness as is that of the subject to the
ruler in order to good and wise government
The sensual or emotional nature must thus yield
to the mastery of the intellect and moral sense,
because rational enjoyment of life and its bles-
sings is impossible without it. All men have
the right to be happy; but unless self is conquer
ed, happiness is impossible; therefore the right
to be happy involves the necessity and duty of
self-conquest! Hence the moral hero has Just
Cause /W tCu Will nllllSelI IL is tue price vi HIS
happiness. He must ''conquer q peace" by con-
quering himself
/ The COST of these two species of war is an
other item for consideration in making up a
true verdict. What dtd the h1umphs Of the
great warriors Of history cost Who can an
swer that question! How much treasure and
blood How many millions did they say to
secure to their names and deeds the eulogy Of
history and the Immortality of song? Alas
that there should be solitary niche in human
annals, or any place in the noble creations of
poetic genius for such crime stained spirits =
Human figures, by no conceivable combinations,
can cipher out the cost of these bloody wars!
| But how different and more glorious are the
triumphs of self-conquest They cost neither
blood nor treasure No ruined cities, or wasted
countries, or desolate homes, or crushed hearts
follow in their train. 1t has been said by an
able writer that s'a rational conquest is more
honorable to a rational creature than brutal
one. 1t is victory that does no body any harm
no lives and treasures are sacrificed to it"
Considering, then, the character of the enemy
conquered, the just reason for the conflict, the
nature of the victory achieved, the moral is in
comparably superior to the military hero
Bringing to the issue brave will, heroic action
and reliant trust in God, such spirit is without
a compeer in the annals of martial heroism-
Upon that battlefield on which self is slain, ht
wins what never historic chieftain won-a gooC
conscience, an honest fame in the world, an6
life everlasting after death
