SHERIDAN AND THE STORY TELLER.

Those who are in the habit of telling prodirious
stories ought 10 have good memories; but fortu-
nately for the world. their memories are generally
short ores. Sheridan used 10 deal with these
mendacous pests in "a manner peculiar 10 himself
lie would never allow himself to be out,ione by
verbal prodigy; whenever monstrous story
was told in his presence. he wouli outdo it by
one OF his own coinage. and put the narrator TO
the blush by falsehood more glaring than his
own. A gentleman in his hearing once related
sporting adventure 81 was fishing ore day,
in a certain cold spring full of delicious trout
and soon caught a large mess But what was
really surprising not foot from the cold spring
there was one of boiling water, SO that when YOU
wanted To cook your fish, all you had TO do, after
hooking them from the cold spring, was TO pop
them directly into the boiling" The company
all expressed astonishment aud ncredurv at this
mOnstrous assertion, with exception of Sheri
dan. :" know" said he. " OF a phenomenon vet
more surprising. was fishing one dly, when
came to place where there were three springs.
The first was a cold one stocked with fish, the
second boiling spring. and the third natural
fountain OF melted butter and parsley. Melted
butter and parsley" exclaimed the first story
teller; impOS>ible" ~ beg YOUR pardon. "
said Sheridan cOolly, =" l believed your story, sir
YOU are bound TO believe mine" "Another
incident occurred TO me-" continued the gentle
man. Il was out shooting once, and spied a
brace OF birds. l was out OF shot but thre v
the ramrod into the barrel Of tie gun, fred. and
brought down both birds" A more singular
occurrence happened to me-" retorted Sheridan
Il had promised a friend OF mine in London ball

distant horn OF the stase-eoach which was to take
my game tn London. Irushed into nv preserve
and IN the hurry OF the moment. forgot nv shot

Earih's Devils.

The Rev. Henry Ward Baechcr, in a recent
discourse, thus draws picture of that large class
of men who delight in tempting to ruin the limo
cent and unsuspecting:
1t is not the Indian aloue who loves to carry
the scalps he has taken in the battle; there are
thousands of beings, male and female, who love
10 carry in sight the number of victims they have
seduced or corrupted, TO count them over and
boast OF their crime There are men who love
TO corrupt the young, who love TO teach them
fallaciOuS vices. and seduce them irtO evil com
piances. to put to leaven OF pcrditioa into theii
souls, and wait till it begins 80 ieaven the whole
lump. They seem 10 have a horrible gloat Of
pleasure in doing this. They resist all the efforts
Of their victims to break away; and if he doe
get away, they pub him down again; aud God
let's such men live!

A report has lately been made to the Society
OF Acclimation a. Animals in London, of new
breed Of sheep, or at least animals resembling
sheep, eycep' in SIZE, found in countries ada
cent To the Pun laUb. These animals are called
Purik sheep and are the most diminutlve OF the
osis family, the full grown ones being not larger
than lamb OF few weeks old The Purik Sheep
has suiail bones tlashy carcase and the mutton
is excellent and Yields three pounds year oi
very fine s0ol. The eve. generally give tSO
lambs year. The great advantage OF this oyeE
other breeds is its domestic ha,its-lving around
the cottages as quiet as house dog, and feed
inc upon all sorts o: waste garbage, scraps Of
fruit, vegetables, crumbs Of bread, shreds thai
are frequently wasted; eating them from the
hands ot any oDe who offers. IL IL thought thai
the Purik Sheep would be suited to the climate
Of e gland, and exactly adapted TO the wants %
many cottagerS Ii so, it would also suit many
in th, Country. II would be great object 10 Ce
All animal 10 consume the kitchen garbage. le-'
objecioial than tie hog, aud the ti.sh OF which
would afford a more wholesome food TO Ii,
common people, TOO many of whom 1--we, 50 fl

Ii is supposed that this kind Of sheep woul,
make rather Interesting pets, Of wSich ehildreI
would be particularly fond; and We approve o
anything that would be likely u displace worth
less dogs in their affections, and at the sam
time adj TO their happiness.
