A BRAND FROM THE BURNING. The
Gospel Herald has D communication
from Mr.. D. Briney, giving an account
of the conversion of woman of such
great age, that it is doubtful if another
instance of the kind will occur in O
whole generation. Mr.. B says:
"Agnes Brown, aged one hundred
and ten years, who lives near Hillard,
who was one Of Colonel Slanghter's
slaves in the Revolution, was recently
converted and united with the church.
and was baptised. This is the crown
ing glory f my whole ministerial life.
Perhaps no person, at least for the
last hundred years, has been the feeble
means under God of the conversion of
a person so very old. One hundred
and ten years old. Only think Of it /!
How many millions would be lost, if
they did not repent until so late an
hour Many thoughts crowd my mind
when think of this conversion but
! viii close by saying that an uncon-
verified man told me, at the waterside,
that her baptism had impressed him
the most deeply of anything he had
ever seen. The Lord grant that it
may be the means of his conversion. =

A THURINGIAN BUTCHER An ex-
ira ordinary affair is related In
Frankfort journal: "a female, after
being twenty years in the service
of butcher at FrankenhPusen, in
Thuringin, left him few evenings back,
taking with her sum Of two hundred
thalers, which she had saved up. At
ter walking some distance she met two
gendarmes, and after telling them that
she had the money in question in her
pocket, expressed fear that, as night
had set in, she might be robbed in
wood through which she had to pass;
but the officers told her that there was
no danger, as they had just been in
the wood and had seen no suspicious
characters. A few minutes, after, one
of the gendarmes, acting underan i'm
pulse for which he could not well &C.
count, returned to the wood to see if
the woman had passed through it SAFE
ly; and to his horror, he found her "
ing in a pool of blood. Near her was
large knife, with which the crime
had evidently been perpetrated; and
as it was one of those which butchers
use, he conceived the suspicion that
the murderer might be the woman's
master. He accordingly, rode at once
to the butchers house, and, seating
himself at the table. asked to he allow
ed to cot his supper AT the same
moment be placed the bloody knife be-
for him, and one of the butchers chill
dren cried, That is our knife Two
or three minutes after the butcher him
self entered He turned deadly pale
on seeing the knife and officer. When
accused of the murder he could not
deny bis guilt, and gave up two hum
dred thalers which he had taken from
the woman. He has been ordered for
trial.
