first heard you preach, and the SER
mon was well worth while remember
ing. You remarked that some peo-
pie are very squeamish about the
manner OF clergyman in preaching,
but you then added, "Supposing
one is hearing will read, expecting
to receive legacy, would you employ
the time in criticising the lawyers

tain if anything were left to yourself,
and how much. Let that, then, be
the way in which you listen to the
Gospel"

EpIroR ARGUs,--Mr, Walker was poisoned
this morning. He will be buried tomorrow, at

which it is. But from the fact that Mr.. Isaac
T. Walker married Mr.. Hartmsn's daugh-
