recently related to us the following anec-
dote: lie was sailing before the trade
winds when h's vessel was followed by an
immense shark for fifteen days in succession.
which fed on wbsIever garbage was thrown
over the vessel. lie became so familiar
With his mode Of feeding that he would torn
up his body and catch the food as Il was
thrown to bin. Bot there vas fear among
the crew as there always is. that IL any one
should fall overheard he would at once be
hevoured by the shark. and means we're de-

"Dat Ish Me 20

Jews are all first-rate citizens, all
business men, but keeners on 8
trade. Sharper than lightning, there
is nothing allowed to stand between
them and a trade. They seem to
take as naturally to the clothing bu.
siness as a duck does to water. Not
long ago a gentleman, wishing to
purchase q fine blue cloth indigo
dyed coat, called upon a Hebrew,
sin whomesthere is no guile," and
looking over his stock, found that
which appeared to suit him.
The purchaser was very particular
to impress upon the seller that he
wanted an indigo, not logwood-dyed
cloth, the smell of the latter being
offensive to him. The coat was Sc
lected and tried On, when our He
brew friend commenced his encomi
ums:
"Now yust look at dat, 1t vas

A gentleman tells of an acquain-
tance in North Carolina, who was
noted for mendacity. He relates the
following:
Said some one to the liar; "Do
you remember the time the stars fell,
some years ago ?"
EYES," said Mendax.
"Well," remarked the other, "I
have heard it was all deception-that
the stars did not actually fall"
"Don't you believe it 2" returned
Meendax, with q knowing look "they
fell in my yard as big as geese eggs.
I've got one of them yet, only the
children played with it so much that
they have wore the shiny points Off"

The Terrible Whispering Gallery.


Could all the forms of evil produc-
ed IN the land by intemperance,
come upon us in one horrid array, it
would appal the nation, and put an
end to the traffic in ardent spirits.
If in every dwelling built by blood,
the stone from the wall should utter
all the follies which the bloody traffic
extorts. and the beam out of the
timber should echo them back, who
would build such house and who
would dwell in it? What if, in every
part of the dwelling, from the Gel
lar up ward, through all the halls and
chambers, babbling, and contortions
and voices, and groans, and shrieks,
and wailings were heard, day and
night2 What if the cold blood ooz-
ed out, and stood-in- -dHoas- ut,vss tifc
walls; and preternatural art, all the
CHASTITY skulls and bones of the vic.
tins destroyed by intempe-ance,
should stand upon the walls, in hor-
rid sculpture, within and without the
building, who would rear such a
buildingp What if, at eventide, and
at midnight, the airy forms of men
destroyed by intemperance were dim
ly seen haunting the distilleries and
stores, where they received their bane
following the track of the ship en-
gagged in the commerce-walking up
on the waves-flitting athwart the
deck-sitting upon the rigging, and
sending up from the hold with
in, and from the waves without,
groans, and loud laments, and wall
ings Who would attend such stores?
Who would labor in such distilleries?
Who would navigate such ships
Oh were the sky over our heads
one great whispering gallery, bring
ing down about us all the lamenta-
ton and woe which intemperance cre-
ates; and the firm earth one sonorous
medium of sound, the whom COM
merce in ardent spirits had sent thith-
er these tremendous realities, as
sailing our sense, would invigorate
our conscience, and give decision to
our purpose.--Dr. Lyman Beecher.

Little Readers,

Does God see you, know all 20,
10 and say, every secret thought
it be good or whether it b
,vil ?
God reigns in glory, and on high
Sits on his throne of majesty; :;
Yet from that glorious throne he bends.
And even to child attends.
Asleep. awake, by night, by day,
Where'er go, whate'er say,
Although the Lord caLnot see,
His eye is always fixed on me.
He hears me when pray or praise,
He also ponders all my ways;
May | SO live as God approves,
May be one whom Jesus loves.
o may try to praise him still,
To know. and love, and do his will;
Then will my Joy and gladness be.
That Gods own eye is fixed oil me.
