A TOUCH SroRY.-The Pine Grove CORES
pondent of the Rochester Democrat, says that
he attended church in the little place one
Wednesday evening, saw the contribution box
passed, and when most of the congregation
had retired, heard Parson Wilks, Deacon Am
ory and John Wiley quarreling about the pos
session and amount Of money deposited by the
good people. Seeing that it would take some
time to settle their little disagteemonts, they
adjourned to q neighboring tavern to count the
money. :.
First the parson counted it, contriving to slip
8 fifty cent note up his coat-sleeve during the
process, and reported six dollars and forty'two
cents. Then Mr.. Wiley, unsatistied with the
telIef's report, took the matter in hand, but
could find only six dollars and seventeen cents.
Then the deacon went for it, but his hands were
30 sticky that he could find but five dollars and
seventeen cents.
''Truly this is STRANGE" said the parson; "let
me count it again we ought to make it agree"
but when he looked at it he could discern but
four dollars and ninety-two cents, which Wiley
found to be too much, for, on recountiug it he
could find but four dollars and eighty-two
cents.
And 30 the precious trio continued to count,
TIL Parson Wilks said:
"This money seems to- be- enchanted; ie ta'
keith unto itself the wings of dove and fieth
away" and the deacon proposed that as there
new seemed to be but three dollars left they
should each take fifty cent as remuneration
for their arduous services.
They agreed, and the deacon signed receipt
for one dollar and fifty cents.
