Anecdote of Bishop BascOm.

Mr. Bascom travelled two years in the noun
famous region of Kentucky. The country was
rough, and the people generally poor But the
romantic wildness of the country was congenlal
with his feelings, and he enjoyed the rude hos
pitality of the ncere-hearted foresters.
He used to tell, with much apparent pleasure
of dinner he enjoyed with particular satisfac-
ton. He was preaching on one occasion in
cabin which was at once a church and dwelling.
The people were listening with seriousness and
deep attention to the truths of the gospel, when
in the very midst of his sermon, his host, who
sat near the door, suddenly rose from his seat,
snatched the gun from the wooden brackets up
on which it lay against the joist, went hastily
out, fired it off. returning, put the gun in its
place and quietly seated himself to hear the re-
mainder Of the sermon.
The whole affair had hardly consumed as much
time as it requires to read this account of it, and
in very few moments all going on as
smoothly as if no interruption had occurred. At
ter service was ended, Bascom inquired of the
man the meaning of this strange conduct.
Sir" said he, I'VE entirely out of meat,
and | was perplexed to know what we should
give you for dinner, and it was preventing me
from enjoying the sermon, when the Good One
sent flock of wild turkeys this way; happened
to see them took my gun and killed two at a
shot, my mind felt easy and [ enjoyed the re-
mainder of the sermon with perfect satisfaction"
