The African Judge.

Alexander, of Macedonia, came, one day, to
distant province Of Africa rich in gold. The
inhabitants went to meet him, carrying baskets
full of gold and fruits.
"Do you eat these fruits 2' said Alexander
81 am not come to view your riches, but to
learn your customs"
So they led him to the market, where their
chief judge held his court. Just then a citizen
stepped forth, and said, go, Judge l bought
of this man a sackfull of chat, and have found
in it a considerable treasure. The chaff is
mine, but not the gold; and this man will not
take it back. Speak to him, o Judge, for it
is his.''
His adversary, also a citizen of the place,
answered, "ThOu art afraid lest thou should'st
retain something wrong, and / not fear to
take it from thee. / sold thee this sack, in
Guiding all that it contains. Keep thine own.
Speak to him to this effect o Judgel"
The Judge asked the first if he had son.
He answered, eyes" He asked the other if
he had daughter, and he also answered,
eyes" "Friends," said the Judge, "you are
both honest people; unite your children to
each other, and give them the newly-found
treasure for marriage dover. This is my
decision"
this sentence.
"Have l judged unrighteously," said the
Judge of the distant land, ''that thou art thus
astOnished ?''
"By no MEANS" answered Alexander ''but
in our country it would have been other
wise"
"And how ?" inquired the African Judge.
''The disputants," replied Alexander,
'would have lost their heads, and the trea-
sure would have come into the hands of the
King"
The Judge smote his hands together, and
said, "Does the sun shine with you, and does
Heaven drop rain upon you l'
Alexander answered, eyes"
"Then must it be,'' he pursued, 'On ac-
count of the innocent animals that dwell in
your land for over such men ought no sun to
shine, no heaven to rain"
