WEE DAVIES ABBOTT.

A Scottish gentleman, more famous
in sports than in morals, often sacrific-
ed truth when boasting of his horses
and hounds; priding himself that mo
man north of Edinboro' could show
the like in a chase" When visitors
were gone, and no better listener was
present, he would repeat to his wife
the marvellous feats of f"Bonnie Bride"
rs he rode her down on the deer, cheer
ed by the pampered hounds "Flash"
and "Sly," both of them he declared
understood every word he uttered to
them.
And these wild boasts he felt neces-
sary to seal with a round Highland
oath, they were so hard to be believed.
One who was ignorant of the powers OF
horse flesh, or who was wise enough
uot to wound his prideby contradiction,
was sure to hear tales which threw
Munchausen far into the shade.
Now, the wife of this man was a
meek, gentle, truth-loving woman;
and so far as she dared to do so, she re-
buked both his lying and profanity.
Often, when she could do no more, she
would touch his shoulder and say, re-
provingly, to shield her boy from sin,
"Hush, dear, wee Davies aboot!"
1t is probable that the little High
lander had heard this caution more
times than his parents were aware of.
One day after the ladies had left theta
BILE and the winefiowed freely among
the guests, his fathers tongue stirred
by it's powers, gave fabulous history
of "Bonnie Bride" and her ancestors.
He vowed that he bought her of agyp-
sy, who stole her from the Duke of L.,
who had purchased her mother of an
Arabian Prince, and that lately the
thick headed Duke seeing and admir-
ing her the more for her resemblance
to his lost one, went up from the mid
land counties of England, and offered
him five thousand pounds for her!
While he ran on thus, all unconscious
of the winks and smiles passing round
the circle, his boy, who had fingered
in the dining hall, stepped up softly be-
hind him, and laying his tiny hand on
his shoulder, said, softly,
"Hush, father, wee Davies aboot"
The roar of laughter which followed
the innocent reproof startled the boas-
ter SO as to destroy the effect ofthe wine;
and he blushed deeply as he saw what
a fool he had been making of himself.
This simple sentencef from lips beloved
did more for him than the kirk, the
Assembly's Catechism, or the pure
hearted wife had been able to do. There
is mighty power in words uttered from
the instinct of child.

A WIDE awake minister, who found

3a We continue our extracts from the recent
debates in Congress on the government and
reorganization of the Southern States. The
short speeches of Messrs. Stokes and Arnell,
Of Tennessee, which we give below, exhibit the
grounds of objection on the part of Southern
Union men, to the military bill as amended
by the Senate. Even with the provisos added
by the House, we believe this hastily con-
cocted and rashly adopted measure gives full
satisfaction to nobody. If the President
should veto it, we predict that it will be lost
If he pockets it, nobody will be sorry and we
hope nobody will complain. If he signs it,
the prevailing dissatisfaction will become gen.
