A rrckLIsH QUESTION in ETHICS

In speech made by the colored orator,
Frederick Douglass, in Nyrth Carolina,
during the late canvass, he gave some
funny incidents of his life as a slave, and
among others. the following: l was hun
CRY once, very hungry indeed, and had a
little conference with brother slave on
the subject of helping myself to a turkey
that saw tluttering in one OF the out
houses. told Sandy (for it was Sandy
Jenkinsl that was hungry, wanted some
thing to eat, but that had religious scru-
pies against helping myself to that tur-
key. knew that he was a praying man,
!, God-fearing man, and wanted his adj
vice on the subject. He told me that it
was rather a tickish question In ethics.
There was some risk about it. but so far
as the act itself was concerned, it was per-
fectly legitimate. He said you are your
masters property? Yes, said l. That
Turkey is your masters property? Yes.
If YOU put that turkey into you laugh
ter that turkey does not cease to be the
property of your master, but only adds to
the value OF the property in another
form. Laughter SO it was simply a
question of removal. said that it stood
to reason, the whole thing was clear to
reason, and I helped myself. [Great
laughterl.

WHIPPING An EDIToR.-EditorS, like
other shrewd men, must live with their
Eyes open. A good story is told of one
who started q paper in Western town.
The town was infested by gamblers,
whose presence was a source OF annoy
:.nce to the citizens, who told the editor
if he did not come out against them they
would not patronize his paper. He re-
Piled that he would give them a.good
~-smasher " next day. Sure enough his
next issue contained in full the promised
-.smasher.' and on the following morn
ing the redoubtable editor, with scissors
in hand. was seated in his sanctum, when
IN walked large man with a club III his
hand and demanded to know if the editor
was in. ''No, SIR was the reply; ''he
has just stepped out. Take seat and
read the papers: he viii return in a min
rlte" Down sat the indignant man of
cards, crossed his legs, with his club be-
tween them, and commenced reading
paper In the meantime the editor very
f,rietly vamosed down stairs, and at the
riding he met another excited man, with
;, cudgel in his hand, who asked if the
EDITOR was in. Yes, sir, was the reply:
you will find him seated up stairs, read
in. "a newspaper The latter, on enter
ing the room. with fearful oath, com.
in need n violent assault upon the former,
which Was resisted with equal ferocity.
The fight was continued till they had both
rolled to the foot of the stairs, and had
pounded each other to their hearts con-
tent.

Bensaxh the low-hung night cloud
That naked her splintered mast
fhe good ship settled slowly.
The cruel leak gained faBt.
Over the awful ocean
Her signal sfhs pea1ed out.
Dear God Was that thy answer
From the honor round aboutf
A voice came down the wild wind,
lilo ship ahoy I" its cry:
..Ouf stout Three Bells Of Glasgow
Shall stand till daylight by:"
Hour after hour crept slowly,
Yet On the heaving swells
Tossed up and down the ship lights
The lights Of the Three Bells
And ship to ship made signals.
Man answered back to man,
While oft, to cheer and hearten,
The Three Bells nearer ran:
And the Captain from the taffrail
Sent down his hopeful cry.
Take heart! Hold ON I" he shouted,
1.-THE Three Bells shall stand by!"
All night across the waters
The tossing light-shone clear;
All night from Keeling tsfrail
The Three Bells sent her cheer
And when the dreary witches
OF storm and darkness passed.
Just rs the wreck lmched under,
All souls were saved At last
Sail on, Three Bells. forever,
In grateful memory sail
ring on, Three Bells of rescue
Above the wave and gale.
A thine, In night and tempest,
hear the Masters cry,
And, tossing through the darkness.
The lights Of God draw nigh!
