Old Father Brayne, of Syracuse, was
very popular camp-meeting leader. lie
used to tell 10 meeting the following sto-
ry: While conducting carnp-meeting
in Western New York, messenger ar
rived at the camp to inform him that the
wife of the chief deacon had died that
morning. Father Brayne delegated bis
powers to another and started home tc
comfort the bereaved widower.
On entering the house he shook the
widower by the hand and sat down in 81
lence. By-and-by he began to condole
with the bereavcd mau and offered him
all the consolation in his power.
''Its very heavy grief you've got 70
bear" said the minister, "but you mus
bear up like a man"
"Yes." the deacon responded, ct;
4 kind o rough. Lets take a walk round.
Father Brayue thinking the widowel
felt i'll and depressed, and that the fresf
air would do him good, readily asscnted
The deacon led him TO his barn and sta
bles, and showed him over bis farm. AT
ter they had gone around the whole farm
the deacon said
s.Now, minister, We sec everything
in fine order. What would you adyis
me to do-bring my daughser and hui
band here TO manage the place or to 9

HAIR WHITEHEAD BY FRIGHT.

Numerous instances have been record.
ed Of sudden rights changing the color
of the hair. For the following authentic
incident we are indebted to the Rev. j
A. Brindle, Of Newark, who was long
intimately acquainted with Mr. Jones.
The Hon. Isaac d. Jones. Of Baltimore,
late Attorney General of Maryland, is q
son of the Mr. j referred to, and cor
roborates the statement Of Mr.. Brindlo
Some fifty years ago Mr.. Benjamin ]
Jones then Of Somerset county, Nd.
with the view OF purchasing home in
North Carolina, mounted his horse and
started on his Southern trip, with up
wards Of three thousand dollars about his
person. Late one afternoon, while rid
ing through swamp said to be infested
with robbers, and of which Mr.. Jones
had been previously cautioned. suddenly
a man sprang out offs dense thicsct, and
presenting a pistol at Mr.. Jones head
said ''Your money or your life" He
said he felt as If every hair on his head
stood on end, and was about to give up
his money, but, recovering somewhat
from the sudden shock, he denied having
anything but some loose change that he
proceeded to exhibit The robber, eyi-
IDENTIFY believing the statement, expressed
surprise that the stranger should be 50
well mounted and yet SO poor in purse,
when Mr.. Jones said he was q preacher
of the Gospel, and was consequently poor
The highwayman, apparently satisfied
with the explanation, said; "Well if
you will 90 with me to my home in the
woods and baptise my children, yop will
do my wife great favor, for we have
not seen preacher for a number Of
years, and | shall return you to this place
again" Mr.. Jones Of course accepted
the proposition, but not being a preacher
he had some lnisgivings as to his being
able satisfactorily to fulfill his engage
ment. Having no form Of baptismal SER
vice at command, he improviscd one for
the occasion, gave the robbers children
a passport to the Christian world, made
his wife happy and was returned in safe
ty to the country road and went on his
way rejoicing.
Mr.. Jones was then in the prime Of
life and when he left home his hair was
black as coal. When he returned, after
an absence Of four weeks, it was white
as snow. and he always attributed the
sudden change in the color Of his hair to
the fright given by the highwayman.

INDIAN SUMMER.

Just after the death Of the flowers,
And before they are buried in snow,
There comes n festival SEASON.
B When nature is alllaglow--
Agow With u mystical splendor
That rivals the brightness of Spring
Aglow with a beauty more tender
Than aught which fair Summer could bring
Some spirit akin to the rainbow
Then borrows it's magical dyes,
And mantles the iar-spreading landscape
In hues that bewider the eyes.
The Sun ION his cloud-piowed chamber
Smiles Oft on vision so gay,
And dreams that his favorte children,
The flowers, have not yet passed away H
There's luminous mist on the mountains,
A light azure haze in the air, .
As if angels, while heayenward soaring,
Had left their bright robes floating there;
The breeze iss soft, so caressing,
1t seems q mute token of love,
Aud floats to the heart like blessing
From some happy spirit above
These days SO serene and 50 charming,
Awake Il dreamy delight
A tremulous, dreamy enjoyment,
Like soft strains Of music at night;
We know they are fading and heeting
That quickly, too quickly, they'll end,
And we watch them with yearning affection,
As at parting we watch a dear friend.
Oh, beautiful Indian Summer
Z Thou favorite child of the year,
Thou darling, whom Nature cnrches
With gifts and adornments 50 dear
How fain would we WOO thee to inger
On mountain and meadow awhile,
For our hearts like the sweet hannts of Nature
Rejoice and grow young in thy smile.
Not alone to the sad fields of Autnmn
Dost thou lost brightness restore,
But thou bringest world-weary spirit
Sweet dreams to its spirit once more
Thy lovelIness fills us with memories
OF all that was brightest and best
Thy peace and serenity offer
A foretasIe Of heavenly rest.

A story About a bishop.

4 Respect for the body ecclesiastical does
not prevent the travelling of this small
story through the English papers. The
Bishop Of Litchfeld hath a taste for
walking, and on one occasion, some time
ago, he walked from a church in the
Black Country to the railway station
where he was to take the train for home.
On the way he happened TO observe a
group of men sitting together on the
ground, and Immediately resolved to
SAY word in season TO them after
the fashion ofthe Calip Haroun or the av-
erage district tract distributor. well, my
good men, said his lordship incognito
what are you doingY The response OF
one of them was not calculated to please
and encourage the amisble prelate. We
bin a loyin'," be said. Lying said
the Mortified Bishop, what do you
mean2" why, yer see" was the ex-
PLANTATION, lone of US fun a kettle, and
we bin a trying who can tell the biggest
lie TO have il" Shockingl" said the
Bishop, and straightway improving the
occasion he proceeded to impress upon
the soldiers the enorTity of lying. he
informed them that he had been taught
that one of the greatest sins was to tell
lie, and in fact, so strongly had this
been urged upon him that never in the
whole course of his life had he told a
lie. Would that we might relate how
those wicked men were moved and
charmed by the recital of such saintli-
ness. Alas! no sooner had the excel
lent Bishop made this announcement
than there was gleeful shout, 3" Che tn
