CLERICAL ANECDoTE.-The Rev.
Samuel Clawson, Methodist preacher
OF eccentric manners, sometimes called
the wild Man." was very popular in
Western Virginia some twenty years
ago. He was cl oss- eyed and wiry made
and very dark-skinned fora white man.
AT times he was surprisingly eloquent,
al ways eXcitable, and occasionally ex-
travagant. He once accompanied n
brother minister, Rev. Mr.. r., Il prom
inent pastor, in visit to co lored
church. MFR. gave the colored preach
er the hint and, of course Clawson was
invited to preach. He did so, and dur
ing the sermon, set the impulslve Afri-
cans to shouting all over the house.
This, III turn, set Clawson to extrava.
CANT words and actions, and he leaped
out of the pulpit like a deer, and began
to shake the hands of the colored breth.
ren and mix in quite happily. He wept
for JOY. Then, pressing through the
crowd, he found brother X. and sitting
down beside him, h threw his arms
around his neck, and with tears stream
ing down his cheeks he said:
"Brothcr r., | almost wish | had
been horn niger. These folks have
more religion than we have"
"Weil, we'll" said brother r., "you
came 50 near it that you necrn't cry
about it,"

Tho Drunkard's Remorse.

remember, remember.
When in chlldhoods happy days,
AS knclt beside my mother,
Angels said, "bohold he prays,"
remember that loved image
Santed mother here no more
But seem TO hear thy message,
Whispereda as in days OF yore
remember when my father
Took me gently on his knee,
Pressed me to his heart In prayer.
That from sin might be free;
Told me many pleasing stories,
Pointed to a Savlors blood,
Showed me scenes of endless glorlcs
They shall see, who honor God
remember ties that bound me-
Ties of purity and truth,
Dearest friends that locked around me.
In the halcyon days Of youth,
One among them remember
Deep esconced within my heart,
Dearest purest truest ever,
Death alone from me could part,
remember days of gladness,
Prospects bright, and hopes so high.
Days without n shade OF sadness,
Nota cloud obscured my sky.
Wife and children then did bless me-
None did rue our plightod vow,
Angel forms did then caress me
Who're are those bright angels now?
Where's my wife my father7 mother?
Darling children, where are they9
Where the friends that round me satherede
All from me are torn away.
Where are those sweet days of gladuessY
Where the hopes and prospects bright?
Buried In the gloom OF sadness
Lest In thickest, blackest night.
In the giddy round of pleasure,
once tho siren lured my soul,
Bade me taste the insidous poison,
From the fascinating bowl.
But one sip,-she said @ atreating
For the fnshion-that is all,
Once tastcd-shc exulting,
Grasped inc In her iron thrall.
Now hear my mother pleading,
And my father-beSt of men!
Wife and children interceding,
Father do not drink again."
CraZed with wine, madly scorned them,
Tramplod on their earnest prayers,
Raving, revilcd and spurned them,
Laughed and Knocked their burning tears
have slain them-cursed murderer!
Can.like, both my hands are red,
Reeking with the blood OF mother,
Father, wife and children--dead!
behcld them broken hearted,
Every look my soul did chide,
Oh those ghastly forms departed
See! they haunt me--hide me! hide!
Gracious heaven! my brain is reeling,
Angels mock me-devlls deride-
Men despise-all earth is jeering,
Crawling worms my soul do chide.
lIells deep thunders round me muttering
Thrill my hcart-Im sad, I'm sad,
Reason from her throne Is tottering,
Omy God, I'm mdd! I'm MAD!!
Black despair her mantle drawing,
In its folds enshrouds me quite,
Hope has fed my soul forsaking
To the gloom of endless night.
Not for me is heavens sweet story,
am wrecked, and tempest tossed,
D1nkdrds shall not taste Of glory,
am loa!O God, I'm LosT!!
