says Philadelphia friend, ''has
some divines whose sermons are
more noted for their length than
depth. One of them, DR.. Bull,
happening, some eighteen months
since, to pass the Sabbath in a
small town in New Jersey, not
far distant from this city, was in

invitation, and spoke for an hour
and a half from the text, 'Remem-
Der Lots wife 1t is said that
the church bell had to be rung, at
the conclusion of the sermon, to
rouse the hearers. This report,
however, needs confirmation.
Last month the doctor was in
the same town, and was again In
vited to preach. He announced
his text, Remember Lots wife.
AT this juncture, a staid old far
mer, sitting halfway down the
middle aisle, was observed pick
ing UP his.hat and things, and as the
injunction, Remember Lots wife,
was a second time sounded in bis
ears, he rose, and in a voice dis.

fact and tokens in accordance with
our own inclinations and habits of

(French.) In Latin sermon on
widowhood, by Jean ,Raulin, a
monk of Cluny, Of the fifteenth
century, there is story which
Rabelais has told again in his
own way. Raulin's version is this:
GA widow consulted her parish
priest about her entering into a
second marriage. She told him
she stood in need of a helpmate
and protector, and that her Jour-
neyman, for whom she had taken
fancy, was industrious and well
acquainted with her late hus-
bands trade. Very WE'LL said
the priest, you had better marry
him. and yet, rejoined the wild
ow, 4 am afraid to do it, for who
knows but | may find my servant
become my master We'll, then
said the priest, don't have him.
!'But what shall | do? said the
widow; 'the business left me by
my poor dear departed husband is
more than | can manage by my
SELF Marry him, them said the
priest. .'Ay, but suppose he turns
out a scamp said the widow: 'he
may get hold of my property and
run through it all Don't have
him. said the priest. Thus the
dialogue went -on, the priest al
ways agreeing with the last opin-
ion expressed by the widow, until
at length, seeing her mind was
actually made up to marry the
journeyman, he told her to con-
suit the church bells, and they
would advise her best what to
do. The bells were rung, and the
widow heard them distinctly say,
do take your man; do take your
man. Accordingly she wen t
home and married him forthwith;
but it was not long before he
thrashed her soundly, and made
her feel that instead of his mis-
tress she had become his servant.
Back she went to the priest, ours
ing the hour when she had been
credulous enough to act upon his
advice. Good woman, said he,
Il am afraid you did not rightly
understand what the bells say to
,iyou.' He rang them again, and
then the poor woman heard clear
! ly, but too late, these warning
words, DO not take him; do not

the rein, and taught to tremble
and stand still at the voice of man!
Hold, thou brutal teamster, and lie
merciful tor once May the lash
ings of thy conscience be more Sc
we're to thee, than those unmerciful
goadings are to thy horse.
The noble horse, like man, lies
down in the prime of his strength,
and age, and dies. His agony is
sometimes terrible. Before, he
was gentle as the lamb, and guided
by the little child. Now, he is
writing and plunging in pain,
and Lis feats of agility and strength
are prodigious.
We would call your attention,
kind reader, to the fact, that more
horses die of diseases caused by de-
rangement of the digestive or
gans than anything else. From a
careful analysis, we are prepared
to say that more die from cholic, di-
arrhoea, and other diseases of the
stomach and bowels, than from
bolts. Hence we think there is
no wonder why we would attribute
the cause of his many diseases in
the major part, to his food. A
great many doctors, you know,
tell us that not a few of the dis
eases common TO man originate in
the improperly of his food taking,
and unquestionably they are
right.
The wild, unfettered horses of
the desert-free to select their own
food-free to select the "grass or
the thistle, which they may think
most conducive TO appease the
cravings of their nature-are COM
paratively free from those diseases
to which our restrained horses are
liable. OF course we find great
many of the ailments of the horse
In his i'll misunderstanding,
lacerating, over-heating, over.
straining, ETC., but we know that q
horse may do a certain amount OF
work daily, and with proper care
thrive and live to a great age.
We will simply state that we be-
lieve much wrong is done to the
horse by the manner of feeding
and the kinds of food fed him.
A horse should never be fed oats
or corn while hot, nor allowed tc
drink cold spring water in that
state. A little hay, or few car
rots, would do him no harm then
Regularity in food, and drink, and
quantity, are as necessary to the
horse as to us, and he who drives
or works his team beyond the
time when the rest and food are
usual may be doing an injury
which he cannot repair. So mucl
for the manner. of feeding the
horse.
But the kind of food. In one
section of the country it is oats
oats, oats. In another corn, corn
corn, We have repeated it be
cause these are the courses thrice
daily. Some consider a regular
mixture of oats, peas, corn, ane
wheat, Gerry nice for o constant
feeding and call it provender; bu
what are the results? The pos
virulent meat advocate in the
world fails not to advocate the fire
quent use of anti-scoaGutic veget
ables, and for the same reasons w
would advocate the use of a daily
mess of carrots or turnips for tn,
horse in order to neutralize TIT
the scorbutic effects, of the oat
meal which contains a larg,
amount of carbon; Tradition it i
well known that the formation
of muscle requires something Of
that kind in large quantities.
