has already been obtained for most of the
road This looks like work, and our enter
prisng citizens north Of US, have our best
wishes for their success in this great enter

A STRANGE LoRD.-In 1774
Burke's Peerage, Or its Predeces-
sor, if it was not eXtant at that
time was better understood in the
English Parliament than the Bible.
In that year DR.. Webster was
popular preacher of the Kirk of
Scotland in Edinburg Business
brought him to London, and one
day while passing the House of
Lords, his curiosity induced him
to make an effort to stop and see
them. None were admitted, ex-
cept Noblemen's servants. Web
ster being ignorant of the rule, re-
quested admittance.
"What Lord do you belong to?'
asked the doorkeeper.
"To the Lord Jehovahi" replied
Webster.
'To the Lord Jehovah p quer-
led the doorkeeper, 81 have kept
here seven years, but have not
heard Of such a Lord"
"Jack," said he to his fellow
keeper at the front steps, "here is
a fellow who says he belongs to
the Lord Jehovah, do you know
such a Lord 2"
"Never heard of him." said
Jack.
"But," said the doctor, "there
is such Lord
"Pass him in" said Jack, III sup
pose its some poor Scotch Lord"
This occurred at period when
there was not one in twenty OF all
the manufacturing and rural dis
tricts in England who could read
the Bible or write his own name.
Sabbath schools were introduced
in 1773.

"that the last cold spelr' very Sc

"These trees" it adds, care not SO

very susceptible to atmospheric
.capriees. Given a cold shock, and
then suddenly a few days Of gen.

CRYING WoMEN.-We have
heard of women laughing, singing.
dancing, and even talking, for
amusement, but never before have
we heard of. women crying for the
enjoyment of themselves and 9TH
ers, till informed of the fact by an
English missionary who has recent
lily returned from New Zealand
He says:
"The chief amusement Of the
females was, and still is, the tangi,
or crying. The ladies pride them
selves on their doing this in the
most affecting way, SO that a stran-
ger would be deceived, and not
think it possible that it could be a
mere mockery of woe, and yet ii
lis nothing more; tears are shed in
abundance, and the hands are
wrung as if suffering the most
poignant grief, while the most
heart-rending cries excite the
sympathy of the company. The
ladies have their heads adorned
with fllets of leaves, or of dogs
hair, and SO much joy do they ex-
perience in this exciting amuse-
ment, that they look forward to a
good crying with the same desire
that fashionable young lady does
to dance or ball"

Banking and Exchange.
The mystery of banking and
is here very cleyerly

The mystery of banking and
exchange is here very cleyerly
shown: e74ssA
On the banks of the noble Sus-
duehanna, stands the pleasant vii
lage of Clearfeld, Like all places
ofits kind, it has its merchants and
its banker, and naturally enough,
the merchant deposits his funds in
hand until his necessities require
them. An instance of sharp prac-
tice in this connection occurred
there a short time ago, which Is
worthy of mention. Mr.. M,
a merchant, being on the eve of
starting to Philadelphia to pur-
chase goods, called upon Mr.. I
his banker, for a large amount of
funds, which he had from time to
time deposited, and which he now
would have occasion to use
Having to travel some distance by
stage, Mr.. H was advised by
Mr.. F. not to risk carrying
the money, but to purchase adrafl
on a banker in the city. Although
exchange was worth one per cent,
yet Mr.. F. kindly agreed tc
charge five-eights, whereupon the
draft was accepted. The next
morning, as M was taking his
place in the stage, he was hailed
by F. with, ~ say, M,
have small package ! wish you
would carry to Philadelphia fol
me-" M willingly tookc charge
Of the package, and finding it ad
dressed to the same party upor
whom the draft was drawn, made
no delay in delivering it upon hi
arrival in the Quaker city. Great
was his surprise, however, wher
the gentlemanly banker proceeded
to cash his draft by coolly opening
the package he had himself car
ried, taking from thence the
amount of his deposits at home
less fve-eights per cent, and hand
ing it to him with polite 'sgooc
morning, sir" M thinks
Clearfield greet on banking, anC
F--"s ome" on exchange.
