Anccdotc of Webster.

Daniel Webster was firm believer in
Divine revelation, and close student of
its sacred pages. On one occasion, Il
small company of select friends spent an
evening at his house. Tea over, the BIZ
bic, and the relative beauties of its several
parts. became the topic of conversation
Each one of the guests had preference.
When the turn came to Webster, he said :
1.-The masterpiece of the New Testa-
mcmt, of course, is the Sermon on the
Mount. That has no rival, no equal. As
to the Old Testament writings, my favor

vori'e verses, chapter iii: lis: cal

of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall
yield no mcat-the flock shall be cut off,
and there shall be no herd in the stall-yet,
will | rejoice in the Lord, and JOY in the
God of my salvation" This, continued
Webster, Il regard as one of the most
sublime passages of inspired literature
And often have wondered, that some
artist, equal to the task, has not selected
the prophet and his scene of d, ISOLATION as
the subject of painting.

tinued Mr.. Webster, Il received an ac.
count of French intidel, who happened tc
find in. drawer of his library some stray
leaves of an unknown volume. Although
in the constant habit of denouncing tho
Bible, like most infidcl writer's, he hat
never read any part of it. These fugitiv,
leaves contained the above prayer of Ha.

he was captivated with its poetic beauty
and hastcned to the clubhouse, to an.

BOHEMIA MANOR.

Earth hath her beauties, and Eden's
prototypes, oasis-like, stud surrounding
landscapes, but few places exist more wor
thy of note than BOHEMIA MANOR. AT
this season of the year when young Spring
laughs most bcwitchingly at the rctreating
footsteps of hoary Winter, and voluptuous
Summer with joyous train prematurely
heats by radiant beams the robe of her
lovelier sister, the place is surprisingly
beautiful. Grand old trees, waymarks of
extensive forests, lift their budding boughs
to heaven at almost every step, dotting the
lands of different owners, while neat farm
houses, embowered by blossoming shrub
berry and dark cvcrgreens, diversity the
scene.
BOHEMIA MANOR is vast extended
plain of fertile territory, tenanted by
thrifty farmers, where honest praiscwor-
thy rivalship exists to outcrop by thorough
workmanship and strict attention to agri-
cultural pursuits, successful neighbors.
No land is more susceptible of improve
ment or better rcpays the husbandman for
his toll. Although fine farms and situa-
tions abound on each side of the road lead
ing from the Kings Highway towards the
bay, Town PoINT, the terminus of the
Manor true, must in regard to scenery
and surroundings wear the laurel.
That which lieth before me is an exhil-
Grating picture, lovely and picturesque.
Terminating in a promontory the Manor
is laved on the northern side by the Elk,
while the glistcning waters of the ripping
Bohemia skirt the southern. Stretching
out illimitably, dotted hithcr and yon by
the white wings of commerce, Town Point
can behold the blue waves of Chesapeake
Bay Jagged by numerous headlands, in
dcnted with inlcts, breaking the monotony
of the wide waste of waters. The music
of trolling birds and the glccful laugh Of
children float on the air, accompanied by
strains of a boat-horn, mellowed and soft
ened by intervening space to Eolian
sweetness. Afar off where the heavens
bow to kiss the earth, strained vision dis
Germs the curling smoke of solitary
steamer, while on the sleeps of the foreign
shore apparent residences of charming as
pcct reward the gazer from Graham's
| Hill. Taste and neatncss denote that ele-
gance and refinement preside in the domi.
ellis of those who outside are so elaborate
with their domains, while health and GOOD
feeling float on the very z:phyrs of Town
Point.
That hospitality which Maryland as {
Southern State grasps as an heirloom
rules dominant here; though the custom
of Dutch Pennsylvania is not adopted O

GREAT Snow STORMS, The greatest
snow storm recorded in Russia occurred on
the steppcs of Kirghccz, in Siberia. in
1927 destroying 2S5 COO horses, 0,GCO
cattle, LOCO, 600 sheep, and IL, 900 eam-
els. The greatest recorded in England
is that of 1914, in which, for forty-eigbt
hours, the snow fell so furiously that drifts
of sixteen, twenty, and twenty-four feet
were recorded in various places. In the
south of Scotland, in 1920, there were thir-
teen drifty days, which killed nine-tcnths
of all the sheep. On Eskdalo Moor, out
of twenty thousands only forty-iye wer,
left alive, aud the shepherds everywhere
built up huge semi-circular walls of the
dead creatures, to afford shelter to the liv-
ing till the gale should end. An inch an
hour is thought to be the average rate of
deposit, though four inches are said to
have fallen during the severe storm In
New York, Jan 3, 1859, and Professor
Thatcher asserts positively that seven and
a-half inches fell during the storm on the
10Th of January last. .t..ty

QuARRELING.-If any thing in the world
will make a respectable sensible man feel
badly, it is a quarrel. No man worthy
of the name ever fails to think less of him
self than before. 1t degrades him in the
eyes of others, and, what is worse, blunts
his sensibilities on one hand, and increas-
es the power of passionate irritability on
the other. The truth is, the more peace
ably and quietly we get on, the better.
In nine cases out of ten, the better course
is, if man cheats you, cease to deal with
him; if he is abusive, quit his company;
and if he ISLANDERS you, take care that no
body will believe him. No matter who
he is, or how he misuses you, the wisest
way is to let him alone; for there is no
thing better than this cool, calm, and qui-
ct way of dealing with the wrongs we
meet with.

Moose Hunting I'm Canada.

The chase of the moose deer, or carl
boo," in the forests and plains of British
America, especially in New Brunswick
and Lower Canada, is one of those manly
sports which beguile the long winter of
that region. and call into exercise the
spirit OF adventure, the courage, skill, and
fortitude of its ardent votaries among the
colonial populations. The noble animal in
question, sometimes called the American
elk, is rather larger than horse; it has
a short, thick neck, which, as well as the
withers, is clothed with II heavy name the
head, which is very long and narrow,
bears huge pair of horns, often six feet
wide, and weighing fifty or sixty pounds
and to its throat is attached a pendulous
gland, which gives it rather peculiar as
pect. Its tail is but four inches in length.
Though it never gallops, but strides OR
stalks along, holding its nose up, and its
horns laid backward, it runs with great
speed. Its habits are solitary while feed
ing, and its acute sense of hearing makes
it very difficult for the hunter to approach.
1t is usual to look for the foot-tracks of the
moose in the snow, and to follow its course,
but with extreme caution. making as little
noise as possible till near enough to get a
shot. When the snow is deep, the hun
ters are accustomed to wear the long and
broad snow shoes of the country, in which
they can walk upon the surface without
sinking.
