In a late number of the Christian Union
Henry Ward Beecher gives delightful pic
ture of the friendship between his father and
Nathan Taylor:
The globe and the universe, to their think
ing. hung upon distinctions finer than spi-
der's thinnest film. We see them now. in the
old Litchfield sitting room, come home from
some meeting, sitting down round the fire,
and after a little family chat, begin to edge
toward the discussion that had broken off at
their last meeting They laid down their po-
sitions cautiously, like two knights riding
round each other, in survey, before the real
struggle begun. Soon they went at it.
They grew earnest. They stopped each other.
Now one seemed pushing the other with
an irresistible analogy-but in little time
some lucky turn gave back the advantage, and
all the lost ground was regained and some
steps beside. Some explosion of wit would
set them both into roar of laughter, and re-
fresh them for the next wrestle. The hours
flew on. 1t was II o'clock in the town where
the folks went to bed at Git was midnight
it was l oclock-and back and forth the ar
guments flew, sometimes while they walked
up and down with their arms over each 9TH
er's shoulders, sometimes Beecher sitting on
faylor's knee, sometimes sitting face to face,
arms going in gestures, the forefingrr pointing
out the line of argument. At length a tall
and pale form at the head of the stairs calls
out, "Father, father! Do you know what time
it is?" "Well, Taylor. stick pin there, and
we'll 20 on tomorrow"

A GOOD STORY is told of the late Count
Montalembert which deserves to be recorded
as an instance of the difficulties foreigners
find in apprecating cur insular humor. The
distinguished Frenchman, with Thackeray, a
certain learned professor, and well-known
literary peer, formed a party of four, many
years ago, to go to the Derby by road. On
their return, they passed a van-load of drunk
en- sailors with their trulls, upon which Mon
talembert observed, in his cynical way, 81
tars? "Not at all" replied Thackeray; "thev
aro only EPSON salts" 1t is said Lord Ii.
was occupied the whole way from Sutton to
London in trying to explain the joke, but
without success.
