There is no sadder spectacle in this
world than shat of broken down cler-
gyman, with all the responsibility and
prestige of his profession gone from
him. Here is warning to the craft
not to dabble in specnlations-money
speculations, we mean, and not the the
illogical sort. At Birkenhead, England,
lately clergyman was arraigned on a
charge of vagrancy, as he had been
found asleep in field in West Kirby.
Upon his examination, the sad story
came out that he had been rector of
Lu kington, and had suffered from bad
luck. He wanted to be rich, and, dis
regarding the warnings of the Gospel,
he put seven thousand pounds into min
ing speculations, and lost every shilling
of his money. Compelled to flee from
his creditors, he went abroad On his
return he could get no employment, and
finally became a homeless wanderer,
having nowhere to lay his head, and no
lodging except on the cold. cold ground.
The judge instead of kindly locking
him up told the poor man to go about
