TRADE IN FRoGs AND SNA1Ls.-There
are one or two articles Of commerce in
Switzerland which we are sure no Eng
lishman or American ever thought Of

made profitable perhaps, for the marsh
es bring forth as abundantly there as
here. Catholics not being allowed to
eat meat on Fridays and various other
days in the year, and Catholics being
many in the land, all manner Of fish
are in great demand. Frogs and snails
belong to the genus fish, and are COL
lected in great numbers for cloisters,
monks being among those who preach,
but do not practice, fasting. It is not
necessary to enjoin the peasants to
deny themselves meat, as they seldom
eat it except on Sundays. Snails are
fattened in gardens on certain kinds of
leaves, and one may hear the chatter
ing Of their teeth as they eat, in passing
by. From Zurich they are exported
to Italy in the autumn. 1t is only
frogs legs that are eaten, and formerly
they ussd to catch them and cut off
their legs, leaving the animal to die a
painful ard cruel death. In period
Of four years, the cloister Rheinau dis
posed Of forty thousand snails, and
thirty-six thousand pairs Of frogs

GY-An aged clergyman, speaking of the
solemnity attached to the ministerial Office,
said that during the whole term Of forty or
fifty years that he had ofioiated therein, his
gravity had never been but once disturbed
in the pulpit: On that occasion ho noticed
the railing Of the gallary with something in
his hand which he soon discovered to he a
huge chew of tobacco, just taken from his
mouth. Directly below sat q man fact
asleep with his head back and his month
wide open. The man in the gallery was in.
tensely engaged in raising and lowering his
hand, taking an exact observation, till at
last, having got it right. he let fall the quid,
and it went plump into the mouth Of the
sleeper below! Tho whole scene was 80 il.
discribably ludicrous that for the first and
last time in the pulpit an involuntary smile
forced itself upon the countenance of tbs

nDThe following, which I copy
from memory, appeared in print some
years ago as a curiosity.-It is said to
delineate briefly the character of gen.
tleman residing in the vicinity Of Bos-
ton, and strange as it may seem, is
equally satisfactory to his best friends
and bitterest enemies, as expressing
their sentiments in relation to his char
acter:
He is an old experienced MAN in vice
and a0ackedness he is never FOUND in
opposing the workers Of sniquity he
takes DELIGHT in the downfall Of his
,aeighbors he never RELIGIONS in the
prosperity Of his fellow creatures he is
always PLEASED when the poor are in
distress he is always ready to ASSIST
in destroying the peace and happiness
Of society he takes no PRIDE in serving
the Lord he has been uncommonly
D1L1GENT in sowing discord among his
friends and 0cquasntances he never EN-
CAGES in relieving the distresses Of the
poor he has not been NEGLIGENT in en-
deavoring to stigmatize all public
teachers he lends no AID to the support
Of the gospel among the heather he
contributes LARGELY to the friends of
the evil adversary he pays no ArTEN-
TON to good Odvice he gives great
HEED to the devs9 he will never 60 to
heaven he will 90 where he will receive
just recompense Of reward.
