but all that | can say with regard to its au.
ihority is 81 non e zero, ben h0Uat0-if it be
not true, it deserves to be true for the sake
of both master aud pupil Some parrot fan.
cierS had agreed to meet in years time, when
each was to show a bird for prize, profcieu-

great criterion of merit Ga the day appoint

On being asked why be had not shown one &C.
cording to the agreement, he said that he had
tried to train one, but that he was such stu

This excuse was held to be nadmsSble All
the others insisted that, stupid or clever, he
must be produced, ano his master accordingly
went off and returned with him. No sooner

whistle and exclaimed, ." My good gracious,

mules which he had found in a stable in the
suburbs, the house to which he first went
having been shaken down He seated me
on the mule and though we had still great
difficulties to contend against, in the form Of
clouds of dust, heaps of ruins, and occasional
gaps in the ground, we gradually approached
the outskirts of the town, which we ultimate
ly succeeded in passing through, and finally
found place of refuge in shepherds hut,
which an earthquake might swallow up. but
could not shake down, from its being built ex-
cept few stones heaped up round the lower
part, of stakes, wickerwork, and dried sheep,
skins with the wool on them.
We did not return to Nanhuisalco till pril.
1860, some month after the catastrophe, wheu
we found that traces of the earthquakes still
remained, in the form of deep chasms, which
gaped in way that forciby recalled the hor.
rors we had seen on that occasion.

4 WISE REBuKE-The following anecdote

Gurney, of Earlham, By one of his family cir
Gle:
"One night, / remember il well, / received
severe lesson on the sin Of evil speaking.-
Severe thought it then, and my heart rose
n childish anger against him who gave it, but
| had not lived long enough IN this world to
know how much mischief child'S thoughtless
talk may do, and how often it happens that
takers ran off the straight line of truth. S.
did lot stand very high in my esteem and I
was about to speak farther Of her failings or
temper. In few moments my eye caught
such lock of calm and steady displeasure
that | stopped short There was no mistaSae.
the meaning of that dark speaking ere. Il
brought the color to my face. aud confusion
aud shame to my heart l was silent for g.
few moments, when Joseph JotA Gurney ask
I'd very gravely: .J5.
"' Dost thou know any thing good to tell Us
of her 2" .... "a
did not answer, and the question was
more seriously asked
:" Think, Is there netting good thou canss
tell us Of her ?''
=" Oh ges, knoR some good things, but
v ould il rot have been better, to relate
those good things than to have told Us that
! which would lower her ia oar esteem? Since
there is good to relate, would it not be kinder

| not at inquty."
