II BGCEsUO0ds venture,

A Virginia banker, who, was chairman
of a noted infidel club, was once travelling
through Kentucky, having with him bank
bills to the amount of about $25,O0O.-
When he came to- a. lonely forest where
murders and robbcries were said to be fire.
quent, he was soon lost, through taking the
wrong road. The darkness of the night
came quickly over him. and how to escape
from the threatening danger he knew not.
In his alarm he suddenly espied in the
distance a dim light, and urging his horse
onward, he at length came to wretched
cabin. He knocked, and the door was
opened by woman who said that her
husband was out hunting but would soon
return. The gentleman put up his horse
and entered the cabin, but with feelings
that can be better imagined than desert
bed. Here he was with large sum of
money, and perhaps in the house of one of
the robbers whose name was a terror to the
country.
In short time the man of the house
returned. He had ON a. deer-skin shirs, q
bear-skin cap, seemed fatigued and in no
talkative mood. All this BODIED the infidel

pockets, and. placed them SO as to be
fc~ey Az IhSIuut use lie man asked the
stranger to retire to bed, but he declined,
saying he would sit by the fire all night.
The man urged, but the more he urged the
more the infdel was alarmed. He felt as
sured that it was his last night upon earth,
but he determined to sell his life as dearly
as he could. His infdel principles gave
him no comfort. His fear grew into perfect
agony. What was to be done2
At length the backwoodsman arose,
reaching to the wooden shelf, took oiown
I'LL old book, and eaid.
well, stranger, if you won't go to bed,
will, but it is my habit to read chapter
ofthe Holy Scriptures before I go to bed"
What change did these words produce.
Alarm was at once removed from the skep-
tics mind. Through avowing himself an
infiidel, he now had confidence in the Bible
He felt safe. He felt that man who kept
an old Bible in his house, and read it, and
bent his knee in prayer, was no robber or
murderer. He listened to the simple pray
er of the good man, at once dismissed all
his fears, and laid down in that rude cabin,
and slept as calmly as he did under bis
fathers roof
From that time he ceased to revile the
good old Bible. He. became sincere
Christian, and often related the story of
his eventful journey, to prove the folly of
inidelity.

IRISH AND ScoToH LoyALTY.-When
George ~. went to Ireland, one of the
"pisintry," delighted with his affability
to the crowd, said to the toll-keeper,
as the king passed through, "Och, now an
his majesty, God bless him, never paid the
turnpike; how's that?" ooh kings never
does; we lets 'em go Free" was the answer.
"Then there's the dirty money for ye,"
says Pat; at shall never be said that the
king came here, and found nobody to pay
the turnpike for him." Tom Moore, on his
visit to Abbotsford, told this story to Sir
Walter Scott, "there ye have just the adj
vantage of us; there was no want of enthu-
siasm here; the Scotch folk would have
done anything in the world for his males
ty, except to pay the turnpike"
