MISCELLANY.
A Thanksgiving Turkey.

The country clergyinen make great reck-
oning on the donations which their people de-
light to pour In upon them IN the fall of the
year. The intrinisie value of the barrel of
apples, the bag OF potatoes or tnrnips, the pot
OF butter, or the tub OF lard, is good deal,
since they must otherwise come out of a sala-
~ that very few other professional men would
be willing to live on. But the kindness of
heart that dictates the gift improves the favor
and doubtless the value. b-a
A clerical friend of ours was settled over
grateful and appreciative congregation on
Long Island. Along In October one of his
4parishioners, not OF the NEST liberal reputation,
stopped after the morning service, and taking
the pastor aside, whispered in his ear that he
must not buy Thanksgiving turkey, for ne
had hne one that he was fattening especial
~ lor MS use. Our friend expressed Inc graz
ltuoe ne felt, for it was relieving nun OF quite
an item of expense, and then 1t showed mat
his Manifestations were not unacceptable. Sew
eral times on passing his benefactor's house,
he was slammed and the noble bird, whom tue
children ali knew was the ministers goDDler,'
pointed ont. The last time the farmer told
him that he believed he must invite himself
and family to dine with the minister on Thanks
b Giving day. and have good time together ov-
ar fhe delicate tit bits the fowl would furnish:
which invitation, OF course, our friend cordi-
ally pressed, though he could not help think
inc. when he remembered the number of
young mouths thus suddenly called in to as
sist in dispatching the plum.puddlngs and
minneapolis, that the financial motives of graf
itude in view of the arrangement had disap-
peared. The long -looked-for Thursday morn
ing came at last, and farmer Tight came with
It, turkey in hand. e
Isn't it a fine one? Isn't it plumb? and so
tender too! assure you there will be fine
eating here was his dissatisfied assurance,
more than once repeated. To which our
friend tried to match expressions of admir- a.
ton equally enthusiastic.
