that during forty years that he had ofliciated
therein, his gravity, in the pulpit, had never
bee but once disturbed.
On that occasion be had noticed man di-

which he afterwards discovered to bo a big
chew Of tobacco, just taken from his mouth.

mouth of the sleeper below! The whole
scene was so indescribably ludicrous that foc

the Postmaster General, Attorney General.

valuable privileges. In many portions of the

from the misfortunes that would result from
