Booth and the Lords PRAYER.

ln the palmy days of Booth (the father of
Edwin Booth the great tragedian, together
with several friends, was invited to dine by n
person who was opposed to theatres and thea.
tre-going--and yet had curiosity enough to
wish to see something of the lion of the day.
During the evening, somo one requested
Booth, as particular favor, to read the Lord 3
Prayer lle expressed his willingness to af.
ford tile company this qualification, and all
eyes turned expectantly towards him. Slow.
~ and revercntly ho arose. AL were aston
lshcd at tue play of emotions that convulscd
his countenanee. His face became deathly
pale, and his eyes, tremblingly turned upwards
were wet with tears. The silence could al
most DC felt it became absolutely painful be-
tore his rich.toncd voice from the death hucd
lips iudcscribably syllablcd forth, "Our Faith
er who art in Hcaven," etc. Every heart
was thrilled with the pathos and solemnitv of
the OCCASION. After he had finished the ST.
lcnco continued, until subducd sob from
remote corner of the room broke the spell.-
The host stepped forward with streaming ewes
and seizing Booth by tho hand, said "Sir,
you have afforded me pleasure for which nv
whole future life will feel grateful. am an
old man, and every day from my boyllood to
the present time thought had repeated the
Lords Prayer, but never heard it before,
ne,e :"
Booth replied "To read that prayer as it
should be read, has cost nc the scvercst.study
and labor, of thirty years; and am far from
being yet satisfied with my rendering Of that
wonderful production. Hardly one person in
ten thousand comprchcnds how much beauty.
tenderness and grandeur can be condcscnd, in
al space so small and words so simple That
Prayer Of itself sufficiently illustrates the
truth of the Bible, and stamps upon it the
seal of Divinity"
So great an effect had been produced by
the reading, that after a few minutes of sub.
dued conversation, the company broke up and
retired for the time at least with full hearts.
