HOW A MINISTER LOST A THOU
SAND DOLLARS.

The Lehigh Valley GA Gazette pub
fishes this: A wealthy Williamsport gen.
tloman became so much attached to cler-
gyman Of that city, that he asked him to
preach his funeral sermon no matter where
he might be. The pastor promised that
no matter what the distance that separated
them, of the difficulties that might be plac-
ed between, he would, when informed of
the death Of his old friend, drop all else,
and hasten to the spot that was to be the
resting place of his mortal remains. The
pastor afterwsrd removed from that vicin-
ity, and short time ago received the sad
announcement that his friend was dead.
Instead Of keeping his promise, he replied
that he was unable to be present, IS he
cncld not close his church, etc. The flu
neral took place in due season, but the
pastor was cot there te perform the last
sad rites over the body of his departed
friend. The ceremonies, however, were per-
formed by another, and afterwards, when
The will was opened, it appeared that tho
old man had been faithful i'll death as he
had in life, and hequeathc1 $1,000 TO his
old friend, prove ed he preached his fu-
cral sermon. His feelings Can better be
imagined than described, We suppose.

shopkeepers, artisans, laborers, and cult

ion of their efforts, in order to provide for
the needs Of their families. There are we'd
ded couples who labor and serve heroical.
ly for years, in order to pay the expenses
Of their marriage festival.
There is one rather amusing custom,
however, whereby this excuse may be avoid
ed. A couple of respectable people have q
daughter. who is acquainted with good
young fellow who would be an excellent
husband for her, except that he lacks the
necessary means to give her that custo
mary welding presents and keep free
table for week for the two families. The
parents, coming home from the bath ono
fine evening, do not find their daughter at
home. They enquire i'll the neighborhood !;
nobody has seen her, but all the neighbors
offer their services in assisting to find her.
The parents accept the offer, and the pro-
passes from street to street, until it reach
es the dwelling Of the lover. The latte-
protected bv his closed screens, in vain
pretends to be dead; he is at last obliged
to yield to tho demand of tho crowd. He
opens the door and the lost daughter, in
tears, thru VS. herself at the feet of her pa

Then the ,endsr-hearted neighbcrs, NOV
ed by the scene, lntercede the mother re-
Tents, the father remains naughty and mex
orable, the intcrcession Of the neighbors
increase in eloquence, and the young man
Promises to be the most faithful of sous ill.,

is overcome, he pardons his daughter, par
dons the lover and calls the latter his son.

in the presence Of sufficient number Of
witnesses. and the police enters it upon his
list the next morning.
