SUNDAY BEADING.
Anecdote OF two Arabs.

Lamartine, the French poet, relates the
following anec6ote:-" There was horse
the name Of which was spread far and near
in the tribe of Nagdeh; and Bedouin of
another, by name Daher, desired extremely
to possess it. In vain having offered for
it his camels and his whole wealth, he hit
at length upon the following device, by
which he hoped to gain the object of his
desire. he resolved to stain his face with
the juice Of an herb, to clothe himself in
rags, and to tie his legs and neck together,
so as to appear like lame beggar. So
equipped, he went to wait for Naber, the
owner of the horse, who he knew was to
pass that way.
"When he saw Naber approaching on
his beautiful steed, he cried out in a weak
voice, Il am apoor stranger for three
days | have been unable to move from this
spot to seek for food. am dying help
me, and Heaven will reward you p The
Bedouin kindly offered to take him upon
his horse and carry him home; but the
rogue replied, Il cannot rise: have no

distress, dismounted, led his horse to the
spot, and with great difficulty set the
seeming beggar on its back. No sooner
did Daher feel himself in the saddle, than
he set spurs to the horse and galloped off,
calling out as he did so, 1t is I, Daher
have got the horse, and am off with
him
"Naber called after him to stop and
listen. Certain of not being pursued, he
turned, and halted at short distance from
Naber, who was armed with spear, you
have taken my horse, said the latter.
Since heaven has willed it, wish you
joy of it; but l do conjure you never to
tell any man how you obtained it, "And
why not p said Daher. Because" said
the noble Arab, another man might be
really i'll, and men would fear to help him.
You would be the cause of many refusing
to perform an act of charity for fear of
being duped as have been.'
"Daher, struck with shame at these
words, was silent for moment, then,
springing from the horse, returned it to
its owner, and embraced him. Naber made
him accompany him to his tent, where they
spent few days together, and became fast
friends for life."

Resides Roof.

Resides patent roof was bad failure.
The shingles leaked, and so he covered
them with concrete to the depth of three or
four inches. In winter time it was elegant;
but when the hot weather came, the stuff
81. ftened, and the Deighbors used to stop to
look at the thousands of long black strings
of tar which dripped from the caves to the
ground. And early in the summer Reside
an6 his wife began to be annoyed by the
animated discussions of cats in the neigh
borhood. The more he "shooed' them
and flung his boots at them, the more
fierce and awful were their yells. Night
after night 1t continued to grow more ter
rifle, and day after day Mr.. Reeside observ-
ed that the mysterious caterwauling con-
tinued through the daylight.
At last, one moonlight night, the uproar
became so outrageous that Reside arose
from his bed and determined to ascertain
precisely, the cause of the disturbance. 1t
appeared to him that the noise came from
tho top of the house. He went up to the
garret and put his head out of the trap
door. There he found one hundred and
ninety-six cats stuck fast knee-deep in the
concrete. Some of them had been there
eleven days and when they perceived
Reside, the whole one hundred and nine
ty-six doubled up their spines, ru filed their
back hair, brandished their tails and gave
one wild, unearthly scream, which shocked
Resides nerves so much that he dropped
the trap-door, and fell down the ladder
upon the head of Mrs. Reside who, oour-
ageous and devoted woman that she was,
was standing below dressed in thing with
q fr!ll on it and armed with palm-leaf fan
and bed-slat, resolutely determining that
nothing should harm Horatio while she
was by.

Professional Amenities in Court.

Judicial proceedings in the remoter dis
tricts of the Union are sometimes charac-
terized by an absence of conventionality
and an exuberant nai0ete that recall the
golden age. AS, for instance, at Muston,
in North Carolina, where, not long since,
Judge Cloud thought it incumbent on him
to fine VIM. D. McGill for contempt of
court. Instead of flying into a passion,
and firing pistols and things as an ill-regu-
lated person might have done, Mr.. McGill
cutting court and cheerfully observed eff
you were not an old man, would pull your
nose, you black old scoundrel." The
Judge responded to this affable salutation
by ordering the jovial William to Jail for
sixty days. AS he left the courtroom in
custody of the sheriff, this irrepressible
prisoner again expressed his opinion of the
presiding dignitary in terms much more
precise than flattering. For this fresh ex-
hibition of candor, Shirty days more in
jail, and an additional fine of $3.50 were
added TO his sentence. Still Mr.. McGill
preserved his temper, until on the way to
Jail he passed his horse in charge of ne
gro. Then he produced his revolver, re-
quested the Sheriff to stand back, vaulted
gracefully into the saddle, and rode gaily
out of town, leaving his compliments fol
the Judge, with the assurance that "he
would come back and pull old Clouds
nose.n

Luther and Melancthon.

On certain occasion messenger was
sent to Luther to inform him that Melanc-
thon was dying. He at once hastened to
his sick bed, and found him presenting
several signs of the nearness of death. He
mournfully bent over him /; and, sobbing,
gave utterance to sorrowful exclamation.
This reused Melancthon from his stupor
he looked into the face Of Luther, and
said, go, Luther, is it you? Why don't
you let me depart in peace?' "We can
not spare you yet, Philip" was the reply.
Turning round, he fell upon his knees, and
wrestled with God for his friends recovery
for upwards of an hour; he then went from
his knees to the bed, and took him by the
hand. Again Melancthon said, "Dear
Luther, why don't you let me depart in
peace?" "No, no, Philip, we cannot
spare You yet from the field of labor" was
again the reply. Luther then ordered
some soup, and when Melancthon declined
to take it, saying, Dear Luther, why will
you not let me go home and be at rest ?'
"We cannot spare you yet, Philip" was
still the reply. He then added, "Philip,
take this soup, or win excommunicate
you" The sick man took the SOUP soon
commenced to grow better, regained his
wonted health, and labored for years after
wards in the cause of the Reformation.
When Luther returned home, he said to
his wife, with abounding joy, "God gave
me my brother Melancthon back in direct
answer to prayer"

@ That's Me.n

A poor Hottentot in Southern Africa
lived with good Dutchman, who kept up
family prayer daily. One day he read,
"Two men went up into the temple to
pray" The poor savage, whose heart
was already awakened, looked earnestly
at the reader, and whispered, "Now I'll
learn how to pray" The Dutchman read
ON, "God, l thank Thee that am not as
other men," "No, am not but am
worse" whispered the Hottentot. Again
the Dutchman read, "I fast twice in the
week, / give tithes of all that possess"
"I don't do that. 1 don't pray in that
manner. What shall doa" said the dis
tressed savage. The good man read on
until he came to the publican " standing
afar off, "That's where am" said the
Hottentot. "Would not lift up SO much
as his eyes unto heaven" read the other.
That's me-" cried his hearer. " But
smote upon his breast, saying, God bo
merciful to me sinner p "That's me |;
that's my prayer y cried the poor crea-
ture, and, shifting on his dark breast, he
prayed, "God be merciful to me a sinner!''
until, like the poor publican, he went down
to his house saved and happy man.

A Rich Story.

The following story is too good to be lost
and as it must have been told by lawyer,
of course the profession will take no offence
at our reproducing it. An old lady walked
into lawyers Office lately, when the fol-
lowing conversation took place:
Lady-Squire, / called to see if you
would like to take this boy and make a
lawyer of him:
Lawyer-The boy appears to be rather
young, madam; how old is he?
Lady-Seven years. sir.
Lawyer--He is too young, decidedly too
young; have you no older boys9
Lady-oh yes, have several, but we
have concluded to make farmers of the
Others told the old man thought this
little fellow would make first rate lawyer,
so / called to see ifyou would take him.
Lawyer-No, madam, he is too young
yet to commence the study of the pro-
fession. But why do you think this boy
any better calculated for lawyer than
your other sons?
Lady-Why, you see, he is just seven
years old to-day. When he was only . he'd
lie like all natur' when he got to be six he
was saussy and impudent as any critter
could be, and new he'll steal everything he
can lay his hands on.

A SLIGHT Mistake.

A gentleman of unquestionable respecta-
bility living on Franklin street went home
late at night. The moon was shining
brightly, after entering the gate, and in ap-
preaching the house, he was surprised to
see fignre of man rise suddenly and
face him. The circumstance was well cal
culated to make any one tremble. Burglars
and robbers were in the city it was rea-
sonable to suppose this was one. But the
gentleman had always understood that in
such emergencies it was best to put on a
show of courage, even if you didn't feel
any.
To this end he put his hand in his pock-
ct and then Withdrawing it, extended it
toward the supposed outlaw as if he had a
pistol in it and meant to shoot him. The
man did the same. Now the gentleman
was only making believe he had pistol,
for he had none but he was not certain
the intruder was equally deficient in fire
arms. On the contrary, he thought he was
armed, and the steely glitter of a pistol he
was sure was flashing before his eyes, His
hair bristled with horror and he cried out :
"Stop, you rascal don't shoot, don't
shoot ~
But still the arm was extended, and the
fear Of death was heavy upon the gentle
man. He shouted murder thieves, and
robbers
The cries of the frightened citizen arous-
ed his wife who came rushing to the door
terror-stricken, inquiring the cause of the
alarm.
"Why, that rascal is going to shoot me F"
"What rascal, my dear?" inquired the
lady.
"There don't you see him ?" pointing
to the still silent figure.
"Why, my dear, that's your shd9oo"
"Whatp p''
"Your shadow ~
"Blessed if it isn't! thought it was a
man."
"No, my dear, 1t is only the reflection Of
brute, and very tight one at that"
And the salubrious citizen was conducts
ed to his couch.
