CoNuCAL CONDOLENCES. s.--Dr. Doran tells of
a comical coincidence of which the rector,
curate and congregation of a Western viii
lage were the victims. The rector and his
curate both returned to their duty, after a
long absence, upon the same day. The curate
took the morning service, and preached so
well as to astonish his hearers. Ia the even
ing the rector, who had ofticiated in a neigh
boring parish in the morning, assembled
the pulpit, and rather surprised his flock by
giving out the same text as the curate
had chosen in the forenoon. Their sur
prise became puzzled wonderment when
they found it was not only the same
text but the same sermon; and one
can imagine the horror of the listening
curate. The fact was, rector and curate had
each purchased some Autographed sermons
and were so unlucky as to inaugurate their
return home with the same one. Good as
this story is, it is capped by the misadventure
attending three young candidates for a Scotch
ministry. The first one put upon his trial.
while putting on his robes, happened to
descry an ancient-looking, well-worn roll of
paper, which proved to be a sermon upon the
text, Jacob was q plain man, dwelling in
tents" Seeing that the old sermon was
much better than his new one, the aspirant
to pulpit honors took possession of it, de-
livered it as his own, and then returned it to
its old resting-place. The sermon was a good
one, and pleased the hearers, although they
would have preferred one delivered without
book. Great was their astonishment the fol-
lowing Sunday when preacher number two
treated them with the same sermon from the
same text; but it was too much for Scottish
patience when a third minister, falling into
the same trap, commenced his sermon by
announcing that "Jacob was plain man,
dwelling in tents" and one old woman re-
lieved the feelings of her fellow-sufferers by
exclaiming, 'Deil dwell 'um. Is he never
gaun to fit ?'-O Chambers J0u7naE
