-A~.GsErsaBsn-fhe following very novel
incident was related to us yesterday by gentle
man of Portsmouth, Of a jocnlar turn OF mind, as
having actually taken place IN one OF the church
es in this CITY :.ft1 r.
A plain, uniettered man, from the lower part
of Chowan county. N. c., came to Portsmouth
several year ago, and on Sabbath went early to
church. He selected a seat in convenient pew,
and awaited patiently the assembling Of the con-
orega,inn. Presently the music of a fine toned
organ burst upon his astonished ear he had never
heard one before. AT the same time, the gentle
man who owned the pew came up the aisle with
his lady leaning on his arm. AS he approached
the door of the pew, he motioned to give place
TO the lady. This movement the countryman
did not comprehend. and from the situation of
the gentleman and lady, associated as it was in
his mind with the music. lie must have concluded
that cotiIion, country dance, or some other
dance was intended. Rising partly from his seat,
he said to him. Excuse me, sir-excuse me. if you
please. don't dance "-NorfoH journal.
