Sermon by n Clown.

The following sermon Has preached
by clown, ina circus thas vas es.

good deal of bitter truth in it: ~
"My friends, we have taken TN
about six hundred delMrs-here to-1ay;.
more money l venture to say, than
any minister of the gospel in this town
will receive for a whole years services
A large portion of this money w;ts
given by the church members, as a
large number of this audience is com.
posed of members of the church. And
yet, when your preacher hsks you Ecf
money to aid in supporting the gospel
you say YOU are too poor to give any.
thing. Yet you come here aad pay
your dollar to hear me talk my noa-
sense. lam a fool because Iain paid
for it: l make my living by it. You.
profess to be wise, and yet you sup,
port me in my folly. But, perhaps
you say you did not come to see the
circus, but the animals. All now
this is allan excuse. If you came sim-
ply to see the animals, why did YOU
not look at them and go away? Why
did YOU stay TO hear my nonsense?
Now, is this not Il pretty place for.
Christians to be in? Do you not feel
ashamed of yourselves? You ought to
blush with shame to be caught in such
II place as this!

BENJAMIN rRASEhN.~ ruR,ry,


The Rev. DIR. Hawks, of New
York, as historian Of the Protestant
Episcopal Church In America, has
discovered s0ffie documents which
ought to be Of interest In Philadelphia
about the one hundredt1 anniversary
of American Independence. The
documents referred to are the private
diaries Of Bishop White, of Pennsyl-
vania, who relates in one place con-
versaticu that lie overheard between
two gentlemen at a tavern in n re-
mote country parish. The speakers
we're a father and son, one of whom
had been Tory during the revoIu-
tionafy war and the other a Patriot.
Each had decided all his property to-
the other, and, as the war was now
closed, the son; who had been the
Tory, wished to have his share: back.
The father. who seemed to he y
thrifty soul, refused to part with any
thing in his possession. Tho next
day the Bishop asked the landlord
who were the occupants of the room
from which the conversation had pro.
ceeded, and was informed thar they
were Benjamin Franklin and. his son.

unable Nithuut titssramant aid to
construct the Northern Railway; much
less are the Southern people now, or
will they be able without Government
aid, TO construct railway with ffees
cessary connections, which shall link
their destinies and interests more
closely with the Pacific coast, as well
as the whole country of the Union.
We have borne, and will continue
cheerfully to bear, according to the
measure of our ability, the common
resume Of debt contracted to build the
railroads of the nation.
The people of the South appeal TO
their fellow-countrymen North, and to
the Government of the Union created
by the common blood and treasure Of
our forefathers, which is dear to our
hearts, and we hope will continue to
be so, to bestOw on the people of the
South such favor and substantial aid
as will enable them to construct rail-
way which shall unite US Oh the one
side with the great country of the
West, and on the other with the rich
and prosperous sountry of the north !;
and, in view Of this do We make APP
peal, fully assured the aid may be
bestowed in such a manner as will not
increase the debt of the Government;
and to that end We resolve, that we
ask the Congress of the United. States
to grant the credit of the National
Union to aid to accomplish the con-
struction of the Texas and Pacific
Railway, from its eastern terminus at
Shreveport, in Louisiana, TO the coasts
Of the Pacific, at San Diego, or other
suitable place on that coast; and also
to aid and accomplish the construc-
ton of such railways, as will connect
the Eastern terminus with the city Of
Memphis, Nicksburg, and New Or
leans with such conditions and provis-
Ions, as will effectively secure to the
lines of the roads. leading to those CT.

along the line of that railway, abs6-
lutte equality as to themselves and as
to all other railway connections and
intersections in the advantages of ia
cilities for the transportation Of freight
and passengers, and all other uses to
which the Texas and Pacific Railway
aud its branches may or can be APP
piled, and with provisions and eondi-
lions that shall compel the construc-
ton of Il road from the point of its
present completion in Texas, to the
Westernterminus on the Pacific coast.
And further resolved that the Presi-
dent of the Convention appoint n COM
mittee of ten persons, who shall be
charged with the duty and power to
take such measures as may hereafter
be deemed proper TO promote the OBJ
iects Of the foregoing resolutions.
