"A Good Story.

They tell a good story of how the Rev.
DIR. Bethune-now dead-a wit, scholar
and an eloquent divine-was once put In
queer position by an intimate friend.
-ss7 The doctor at the time was settled over
congregation in Brooklyn, and was very
popular. A Connecticut congregation
gave him a call, land "called' thousand
dollars per annum better than the Brook
lyn people. But he had formed a strong
attachment to his parishoncrs, and, think
ing that his sphere of service could not
be changed to advantage, he was not
tempted by an increase of salary. so
he remained, to the great delight OF his
people.
All of the doctors Pensioners. were
mot saints. There were few SINNERS
among them-else why preach the gos1,
pei? And among the last was a JovlaI
pew.holder, fond Of lush, and apt at oil
times to get more than be could conVen-
ientiy carry. Neither vas he particular
at. what time, of the day he got drunk.
He snited his inclination, and had no
method in his cups.
Bilkins-well, that was not his name,
but it will do-Bilkins heard of the doc
tors refusal, and he was delighted. In
tsthe.very height Of his pleasure he crossed
Fulton Ferry, carrying about quart OF
brandy
DIR. Bethune crossed in the same boat,
carrying an umbrella.
The brandy carrier happened to catch
sight of the umbrella carrier, and at once
staggered towards him, exclaiming in his
loudest tones:
"How do you do, DR.. Bethune? Let
me take -hic-hand, my dear sir-r-r.
!. / am proud to testify-yi-yi my respect
for you, sir.''
aSpeak little lower, if you please, Mr..
Bilkins,; murmured DR.. Bcthune.
eYes-s-s-s, sir! you've stood by our pull
pit like a, man. Them cussed nutmeg
grinding, ham-carving Yankees-wanted
to take you away Grem us-ofercd you a
thousand dollars year more-did they?'
;sBySthis time the attention of the crowd
was fixed on tho couple. DR.. Bethune's
face was always forid, but it was now on
fire.
His interlocutor continued:
ssOur people have got to make up that
thousand dollars-gOt 10 Ii Lney uon
.I'll do it myself. S-s-ssee if don't ?"
"But, my dear SIR, demonstrated the
doctor, ssspcak a little lower. You are
drawing"
stYes.s-s," interrupted the other, aI
know what you said. You spurned the
offer. You s-s-said you wouldn't go-not
an inch. You told them, as a good and
pions clergyman ought to, that you'd see
'em id frst.'

: 4 VIVID IMAcISATI1oN.-Aw well known
merchant of Warren, Mass, wears false
teeth, as is his inalienable right. He
missed his pearls one morning last week.
and shortly persuaded himself that he had
swallowed them in his sleecp. The Disaster
played upon his mind so much that he be-
gan gan to experiece violent pains in the
neighborhood where the teeth were sup
posed to be, and finally consulted.a physi.
elan for relief Two or three days passed
without relief;. he made up his mind to
die, and actually prepared his last testa-
ment before he found his teeth in the poeSc;k- %;
ct of discarded pair Of pantaloons. The
merchant himself, his physician and all his
neighbors firmly believe he would have
died from, hypochondria if the teeth had
not been found, and regard the case as q
new and curious Illustration Of the power
Of imagination.

Plant Grain.

AS the time has arrived for sowing
grain, it may not be amiss to urge upon
our planters the necessity of sowing large
.ly of small grain. The experience Of the
present year. in paying exorbitant prices
of corn to raise cotton, will, we trust, not
be allowed to pass unheeded, and cur
country still moro impoverished by Il
repetition Of, that worse than false theory
of political economy. 1t has been clearly
demonstrated, by practical men, that we
cannot afford to raise cotton, as an article
of export, while labor and provisions COM
mand their present prices, unless cor
responding price for cotton can be OBJ
tained. 1t is also clearly demonstrated
by facts, greatly to the dctrimcnt of our
section, that the cotton raised in the
South no longer controls the prices Of the
staple in the European markets
The production OF cotton has been
stimulated in the British Provinces, until
at least two-thrds of the supply demand
ed is drawn from them; and tho article
produced is almost equal in texture to
that raised in the Southern States
Cotton is no longer King, and the sooner
our people realize the tact, and change
their mode Of farming, to meet the emer-
gencies of our own impoverished section
the better it will be for us as people,
Depend no longer on cotton, but raise your
own supplies at home! By sowing large
ly of grain, the expenses Of the farm can
be reduced at least ore-haf, and you are
relieved to a great degree from your for
mcr dependence, upon an unreliable free
labor.
Under the present status of political af-
fairs, with combinations of freedmen
against the owners Of the soil, to extort
higher wages, they will be more unrelia-
bic and arrogant than ever, and he who
has the least to do with them, the coming
year, will show hs prudence and sagacity
Plant that which yields the largest in
como for the labor required, and the least
capital expended. Raise grain and stock,
and let your cotton lands rest, until we
have reliable labor which can be made
remunerative in the production of cotton !!
and the government ceases to load it with
illegal and ruinous taXation.-CoUtngton

The Great Myste1y.-The body is to die
No one who passes the charmed boundry
comes back TO tell The imagination visits
the land of shadows-sent out from some
window of the soul over life's restless waters
but wings its way YEARLY back without a
live leaf in its beak, as a token of emerging
life beyond the closely bending horizon
The great sun comes and goes in the heay-
ems, yet breathes no secret of the ETHEREAL
wilderness. The crescent moon cleaves her
nightly passage across the upper deep, but
losses over board no signals. The senti-
nal stars challenge each other as they walk
their nightly rounds, butw catch no sylia-
bic of their countersign which gives pas
sage to the heavenly camp Between this
and the other life there is great gulf fixed,
across which neither feet nor eye can travel
The gentle friend whose eyes we closed in
their last sleep long years ago, died with rap
ture in her wonder-sUriken eyes, a smile Of
inefable JOY upon her lips, and hands fol-
ded over a triumphant heart; but her lips
were past speech and intimated moth
ing of the vision that enthralled her.
