A CLERICAL JOKER,

The late Elder JokE Smith, of Ken
tucky, who died recently at an advanced
age, was one of the most eccentric wits
south of the Ohio rivera true gen.
,leman. lie was Familiarity known
throughout Kentucky as "Raccoon
Smith" While still in the Baptist
ministry, and attending one of the
annual meetings of that body, tall,
lank, green specimen of humanity pre-
scented himself before the assc cation as
candidate for the ministry. He was
not regarded rs being of entirely sound
mind, and labored under the hallucin-
alton that he was especially "callcd
to preach" and kept constantly i'm
portuning the association to grant him
the necessary license. In addition to
his particularly unbalanced mind, young
Meeks was the possessor of as huge
and ungainly pair of feet as ever trod
shoe leather. Tired of his importuni-
ties, and not being disposed to grant
the license, the association handed him
over to Smith, with instructions to make
an end of the case; and between them
took place the following conversation:
Snith-So Brother Meoks, you think
you have special call to preach
. Meeks--Yes, the Lord has called me
to the work, but the association refuses
me the license.
Sniith-How do you know you are
c,lled?
Meeks-I know it! I feel it in my
heart of hearts. / want my license.
Smith-Do YOU believe the Bible,
Brother Meeks?
Meeks-Certainly do, every word
of 1t.
,':nith-If 1 can prove by the Bible
thai you are not called to preach, will
YEA lie satisfied to drop the matter,
and not importune the association for n
license?
Hyother Mecks assented to this, and
!;scaoon Smith deliberately opened the
'hr New Testament at Romans X, Is,
,."l in grave tone read: How beau
,iul are the feet of them who preach
the Gospel of peace etc, and then,
CHANGING at Meeks' large flat feet, he
remarked: You see, Brother Mccks,
that the feet of the preacher are beau
tiful. You, sir have the most mon
s.rously ugly feet of any man in the
State of Kentucky; therefore, by this
Bible, it is clear that you have not been
especially called"
As Smith finished his remarks, the
en.;re association went off into par
oxysm of laughter; and Meeks, really
concluding that he had not been
"cAlled," bolted from the meeting
hous,, and never after annoyed tho as
ISOLATION for license.

members on Puget Sound. Four of
the house Of Rev. G. +. Whitworth, on
Feb I, 1873, and the subject of an as
sociation coming up, the present was
doomed an opportune moment for an
organization. Without further delay,
Rev, G. +. Whitworth was called to the
cAair md Rev. John Rea to the pen.
The choice of n name was then made
" The Puget Sound Ministerial Assoc
alton" Rev. &. F.. Whitworth was
chosen chairman, and Rev. Jno. Rea.
Secretary, to serve for period of
twelve months. On ma tion, the Ruling
Elders of the various fully organized
churches were declared eligible to
membership and Office in the Associa-
ton. The names of the absent Presby-
ters were enrolled, and the Secretary
authorized to notify them of the organ
ization. 1t was further resolved that a
cordial invitation be sent to Rev. S. G..
McGregor, of Victoria, V. l., and Rev.
Mr.. Jameson, of New Westminster.
b. c., of the Established Church of
Scotland, to unite and cooperate with
the Association in its work of strength

that Ssoker committed suicide in the

THE CUBAN QUESTION.

But little further authentic informa-
ton respecting the murder of the crew
of the "virginius" has been received
since u last. A large portion of the
crew have been killed, and the balance
will doubtless be as soon as the form OF
a trial is gone through with. The "war
spirit, seems to be aroused throughout
this country. numbers of regiments hav-
ing been rendered the President from
different parts of the country. The
prospect of war is not great, however.
The dignity of the country will be
preserved-and, If it is desirable.
the Cuban island acquired-by peaceful
negotiations, avoiding the waste of
precious blood and treasure. English
Journals look ~favorably on the project OF
nnnexing Cuba to the United States, hut
the why or wherefore is not so readily
understood. The populace of theisland
are warlike and FESTIVE, and their char.
acter would probably more than over,
balance the good of liberating her slaves
and acquiring her rich territory. Presi'
dent Grant is determined to take eau
tious steps, and act only on reliable in,
formation, that no backward steps need
be taken by our Government.

A Means to an End.

Is there not a great deal of our pres.
ent system of instruction that is useless.
time spent on that which is of little or
no value to the pupil, now or hereafter,
because of the failure to carry a means
to an end? Take, for example, gram
mar. as it is generally taught. What is
the object to he obtained in teaching
grammar? If it is TO teach the child
to speak correctly; that is. TO use gram
NAUTICAL language in his conversation !;
then we fail almost in tOtO. For that
end can be accomplished much better
than it is under the present system with
comparatively little time and. labor.
However. we do not believe that the
study Of grammar, merely to speak the
language correctly, is the principal OBJ
.ject 10 be obtained, though that is very
c~ommendablc in itself if we We're sue
cessful: but, as a means preparatory to
the study of the English classics and
higher literature Of the language. Aud
in this we also fail. by not continuing
the study to its proper end. AS soon
as the pupil has knowledge enough of
grammar TO pursue the study of En-
glish literature to an advantage, this
branch Is dropped to give place to the
dead languages, or some other branch
of study. TO be pursued with no more
practical results. Hence the failure:
the means itself is made the end. with
ont accomplishing the object for which
it wa. intended.
