Pats Message,

Pat O'Hara, or q" Old Harry" as we used to
call him, ran a email one-horse wagon in old
mining times between Blue Gulch and Copper
City. He wsss Hibernian, pretty well advanced
in years, and his two prominent characteristics
were-frst, a most remarkable volubility, which
rendered any communication with him a matter
of time and patience and secondly, his utter
inability to do anything correctly, provided
there was any possible way of making a blunder
Repeated experiments had demonstrated it to
be utterly futile to attempt to send any verbal
message by Pat, as witness the following exam
pie Msjor Fitzgerald had died Of pleurisy fe-
yer ; snd as Pat was Just starting for ;he Gulch,
a message Was given him to deliver there to the
Majors friends that " when nearly well Of rleu-
risy he was taken with something Of relapse,
and dropped of very suddenly"
Arrived at the Gulch, almost the first man Pat
met was the Majors brother-in-law, who, having
heard Of his illness, was Of course anxious to
know how he did

IuE CLERGY AND LAIrY OF SwEDRS.-The
pessau-ry Of SWenden are great church goers-
not So the upper ciasses-and among the former
there is very little Dissent from the national re
ligion, which IS Lutheran n doctrine snd Epis-
copalizn in form. The church government Is
simple and admirable. The clergy are usually
the sons Of wealthy peasants, and Mr. Lloyd
gives thea credit for attending diligently TO the
religious instruction Of their hocks and for res
pect2bility a. q body, though he says they
are not noted FOR learning. refinement or exsit-
ed views" Their minis,rztions smoug the
peasantry are all the more successful, DO doubt,
IN consequence Of the common bond u com
mon origin The clergy, until 4 recent period,
formed one Of the four estates Of the Swedish
parliament, but they are now deprived Of that
privilege, and ozly meet once in Eve years, at
church diet, for the discussion Of exclusively
professional matters
Church discipline is very strict, anil in mat
tiers Of form there is much exactnets Thus, the
people are obliged by law 10 stand up while the
Epi.te and Lesson Of the day snd the Apostles
Greed are being read. The Swedes were for
merly very intoerant ir religious matters, ut,e--
y prohibiting Jews from residence in Norway;
ant in SWeien restricting them to two or three
Of the principal towns, while they were debar-
red altogether from holding landed property
There is much indi1ererce in Sweden, but little
Dissent. The peculiar Lutheran doctrine Of
cousubstantiati0n' is held very firmly and,
until 1864, biAsphemy against the sacrament
was punishable with death Attendance At pub
lie worship wss slso enforced under penalties
Roman Catholics, Bsptis-s, Mormons. and Swed-
enborgians exist in Sweden, but in very small
numbers.

uood to both Of them; good to both of
'hen. As the clergyman parted with Jack
and went home in the moonlight, his heart
overhowlng with its sense OF the mercy the
night had brought him, he wondered how he
could ever hope to be sufficiently thankful.
But Jack was to die. Love and skill were
exerted, but they did not save him. In a

he had wished to 20, death came to him
calmly and peaceably. Septimus and his
wife were there; and the child was solemnly
given over to them.

ENGLISH PosrAI REFORMS A very few
months since tEo important reforms we're intro
iucei in the English po.tsl service. Newspapers
were admitted to the post for one half-penuy
each, reduction Of one-hslf, and the system Of
postal cards, to be carried for half-penuy, was
adopted Nos Mr. Monsell, the new PostmAster-
General, has announced two other changes, also
Of great advantage. The unit Of weight for all
letters and parcels, whether open or closed, is
rlisei from half sn ounce 10 an ounce, and the
charge FOR all such letters is one penny. An
additional ounce Of weight aids only one hs'f-
penny to the postage and above two ounces the
aiiiti1nal charge i but bali penny for each
two ounces The rate for = letter weighing
twelve ounces, the limit for that class Of postal
matter Is therefore only flurpeuce In the
Uaitei States It would cost seventy-ts0 cents 10
send such letter. The other change was IN
the rs'es for money orders. Sums under ten
shilliuss cs1 hereafter he sent by mouey-oriers
for one penny, one pound FOR tuo-2ence, and
then Al addition Of one penny for etch additional
pound up 10 ten pouuis, FOR which one shilling
is .chsrgel These rates are not much lower
thsu those iu the United States for the same ser
vice. except ths. the minimum charge with us is
ten cents, which is the price Of all orders
Of twenty dollars or less BY the English stand
