Western SImpIicIty.

Western simplicity-not greenness, but
genuine candor and character-are to, be
seen in the following incident, furnished
some time since by Western correspond
ent: ,-.-. .-,
In the wild Western neighborhOod the
sound of church-going bell had never
been heard; notice was given that the
Rev. Mr.. A., a'distinguished Presbyte-
rian divine, would preach on certain day.
The natives, who consisted mainly Of
those hardy pioneers who have preceded
civilization, came to hear him. They had
an indistinct idea that "preachin'n was
something to be heard, and all attended to
hear it.
After the service had begun, araw-boned
hunter, with rifle 10 hand, and all the. .ac-
coutrements of the chase about him, entered
and took the only vacant seat-a nail keg
without either head. The current of the
preachers thoughts led him into
q description of heaven and its
inhabitants. With great power he
had drawn picture OF the habitation Of
the blessed, and7was assigning each of the
p1triarchs, apostles and prophets each his
appropriate place. His Calvanistic ten
denotes led him 70 reserve the Apostle
Paul for his climacteric. With his eye
fxed upon the highest point, and with an
upward gesture that seemed to be directed
to gthe lOftiest attitude of the heavenly
places, he said: -''l-l l-
"And where, my brethren, shall we seat
che great Apostle of the Gentilesp where,
Isay. shall we place the Apostle PaulPnlI
Then pausing, to give the imagination
time to reach the elevation designed for the
Apostle, he fixed his eyes upon our hero OF
he rifle. He, therefore, thinking the ad-
tdress personal, rose instantly " and replied
.If he can't do no better he can take mF
seat.n yre lTeT Tr-Fa 81 q TT
1t is needless to say that that climax was
never reached. oiidIq 2gioHsrtE gaaffe5J

MARRTAGE,

Reflect that sound mind and body are the most
necessary requisites TO promote copnUbid happi-
ness. Indeed, without these the journey through
life becomes a cary pilgrimage the prospect hour
with despair, and filled with the melancholy rehnc-
ion that the happiness Of another becomes blighted
with our own.

EhterFrise 0f n French Reporter.
One day when the Place de Pantheon
WAS the scene Of riot Dongel0t installed
himself In the midst OF shower OF stones
and other missiles, pen in hand, to:note the
Incidents, as "a faithful reporter. RI Amid
the yells and groans of combatants, and the
clatter of cavalry over the hard pavement
into the ranks of the seditious, a friend es-
pying the indefatigable reporter, hailed
him. as.tj E.e riI.p
"Manl are you mad ?" he shrieked; "run
from there or you will be killedl' '''' Gag
-qDOngelot, without needing his advice,
retained his position, watch in one hand
and his pen in the other, recording minute
by minute, the aspect of the conflict. oo
"Do you not hear me ?" cried the friend
again, lit Is certain death to remain
there." koRr .......-.,r .a f-tH lHtl

One hour after the adventurous reporter
was struck by q stray ball. He was con-
vevpd to house, and surgeon hastened
to his relief.
g "Are you wounded? l-i'J '..'
"les, rephed Dongelot, "and seriously;
for am not able to write"
"You positively do not think Of writing"
said the doctor, brusquely; lit will excite
you too much. You must rem ain quiet"
"That is not the most important tling at
present" rejoined the journalist gasping
for breath. Each one to his task; mine is
to chronicle this affair. Give me your as
sistance for one minute. Write for me at
