A BIBLE-READING FRESHMAN.
Irishman had taken to reading the
Bible.-The priest came and told him
he had heard that he was reading the
Bible.
And indeed it is true, and a blessed
book it is.
But, said the priest, you are an ig-
norant man, and ought not to read the
Bible.
Well, said Pat, but your reverence
must prove that. before I'll give up
reading the Bible.
And so the priest turned to the place
where it reads: AS newborn babes de-
sire the sincere milk of the word.
There, said the priest, you are n
babe, and you ought to go to some
body who can tell you what the sim
cere milk of the word is.
Pat was milkman, and he replied,
your reverence, / was i'll, and employ
ed man to carry my milk, and he
cheated me-he put water i'll it; and
how do know Saving your river
ence)but the priest may do the same
The priest was discounted, and
said:
Well, Pat, see you are not SO
much of babe as thought you were.
You may read your Bible, but don't
show it to your neighbors.
Indeed, your reverence, says Pat,
I've one COW that know gives good
milk, and while my neighbor has none,
sure I'll give him part of it whether
your reverence likes it or not.

A WoRD FOR NEWSPAPERS. clip
the following article from an exchange.
1t is true, and we commend it to every
man who has an interest where he
resides:
Nothing is more common than to
hear folks talk of what they pay for
newspapers, advertising, etc, as so
much given in charity. Newspapers,
by enhancing the value of property in
their neighborhood, and giving the
localities in which they are published.
reputation abroad, benefit all such.
particularly if they are merchants or
real estate owners, thrice the amount
yearly Of the meagre sum paid for
their support. Besides, every public
spirited citizen has laudable pride in
having paper of which he is not
ashamed, even if he should pick it up
in New York or Washington.
A good looking thriving sheet helps
to sell property, gives character to the
locality, and in all respects is desira-
BILE public convenience. Ii from any
cause, the matter in the local or edito-
rial columns should not be quite up to
your standard, do not cast it aside and
pronounce it OF no account, until you
are satisfied that there has been no
more labor bestowed upon it than has
been paid for. If you want good
readable sheet, it must be supported
And it must not be supported in
spirit OF charity, but because You feel
necessity to support it. The local
press is the power that moves the
people,"

A Strange Specimen OF Humanity.
Where did Ii come From?

Twelve years ago family named
Sawyer, living in the neighboring
town of Westbrook, were surprised to
find that very superior new milch
COW, carefully kept in her stable was
"drying up This continued until
Mrs. Sawyer discovered, sometime af-
ter, the prints of human fingers III the
soap grease barrel in the stable.
Communicating this discovery to her
husband he procured help from the
neighbors and a thorough search of
the stable followed. An examination
of the hay-mow disclosed small hole
which being followed up by pitching
away the hay, led to a sort of den like
place in the interior of the now
Here was found strange being-a
man apparently of about "a years, half
clothed in rags, shockingly filthy, and
having no feet. One foot was missing
just above the ankle; the other WAS
gone little higher up-the stump
terminating in an oblong way and in
manner showing it was not the work
of a surgeon when lost. His face and
head were of average intelligence, but
not word could be got from him.
He had lived there number of weeks
subsisting on the milk of the cow and
the grease. He was turned over to
the town authorities and placed in the
poor house, where he now is and has
been for the past twelve years.
All attempts to solve the mystery
concerning this strange being have
proved futile. No one has been found
yet who ever saw or heard of him, and
during the whole twelve years he has
never uttered word. Various expe-
dents have been tried to loose his
tongue. On one occasion he was given
bottle containing a pint of whiskey.
He seemed to understand exactly what
it was, for he placed it to his lips and
drank the whole at n draught, but it
had no perceptible effect upon him.
In manner, habits, etc, he is like a
wild beast. In the summer he is kept
in sort of wooden, cage-like structure
in the yard He is very shy of stran-
gers and will hide his head i'll his
blankets when they approach. His
quarters are comfortable, and it is i'm
possible to give him better for sanitary
reasons.
Where the creature came from is
certainly mysterious matter. He
could not have walked from distance
as he crawls very slowly. The only
theory attempted is this: A few weeks
before the man was discovered, the
steamer Sarah Sands arrived Mt this
port from Liverpool with large num-
Der of emigrants 1t is conjectured
that this being might have been bur-
den to some one over the water--M Mr..
Sawyer (since deceased hauled load
home from the steamers wharf at that
time, and it is reasoned that the man
might have been clandestinely added
to his load Gas there were opportuni-
ties and from thence have crept into
his stable. This hypothesis is decided
ly vague and unsatisfactory however.
The appearance of the man is not that
of an idiot, but of one who has lost his
mind. He seems laboring under q
great fear. Portland .A,gus.
