Webster and the Driver.

On one occasion Mr.. Webster was
on his way to his duties at Washing
ton. He was compelled to proceed at
night by stage from Baltimore. lie
had no travelling companions, and the
driver had a sort of felonious look
which produced no considerable alarm
with the senator. Il endeavored to tran
quiize myself" said Mr.. Webster,
.'and had partly succeeded when we
reached the dark woods between Bla-
densburg and Washington "a proper
scene for murder or outrage) and here,
l confess, my courage again deserted
me. Just then the driver turned to
me, and with a gruff voice, inquired
my name. l gave it to him. Where
are YOU going! said he. The reply
was to Washington. Lam a Senator.
Upon this the driver selzed me Ter
vently by the band, aud exclaimed,
'how glad am. have been tremb-
ling in my seat for the last hour; for
when looked at you | took you to
be highwaymau.' OF course both
parties were relieved.
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Woodstock, Vt.) 1845-1913, 1876-11-08

Ask your purse, not your pride,
what you shall buy. Let not desire
to excel your peighbor in display run
you into lavish expenditure. There
is no folble so attractive for the time
as extravaganza. People call it liber-
ality, nobleness OF spirit, and enlarged
views; they look on with admiration,
as they do at a brilliant display Of
fireworks, but the fire once spent,
then comes the reaction.

Indignant Mrs. Myers.

Early Monday morning woman
about fifty years old, having a large
bundle under one arm and u sachel,
with both handles gone, under the
other, appeared at the Central depot
and asked what train went to the Cen
tennial.
"Going to Philadelphia, eh p asked
one of the depot officials.
"Thats where Pm bound for, my
son, she replied "Yes; going right
down there to see the old hoss pistols,
old shoes, big machinery and Mr.
Krupp's cannon .
She went aboard the Canada South
ern train, waited patiently until the
cars moved away, and at the lower
end Of the depot she waved her hand
at the expressmen and called out:
Going right down to see the hull
caravan -
About mid afternoon she was seen
again in the depot, having just de-
scended from the way Car on freight
train. Two or three persons who had
seen her rolling away in the morning
halted her as she toiled through the
long depot, and one Of them said
What back again ;"
II seem to be here, dont't p she
grimly answered.
"But thought you started tor the

the ardor of his own feelings, nc rose
from his seat, and taking from case
that stood in q corner Of the room, a
well,wom violoncelo, he saug to It's
accompaniment one of those immortal
chorals, so dear to every Christian
heart, and especially to every Scotch
man. Possessing rich, full voice,
and no little skill in the management
of his favorite instrument, he poured
out such flood Of harmony as had
seldom greeted the ears of his spell
bound listeners.
The stern old men we're conquered !;
conquered by the very weapon they
had come to condemn. As the pastor
returned the instrument to its accus-
toned place, the elders arose and
erasped his hand, and without allud-
ing to the object of their visit, they
babe him good BY"
Meanwhile, as time wore away, the
remaining elders, who were anxlousIy
awaiting the return Of their commit
tee, somewhat doubtfal, perhaps, OF
the result, became impatient Of thell
protracted delay, drawing no very
favorable augury theretrom. AT
length they entered and resumed then
