There are times when bOldness, even when

A SLIGHT MIsTAKE.-A wag walked into
saloon in New York lately, where three men
were sitting around freless stove. AS he
entered all eyes were turned toward him.
Apparently taking mental review of the
number of people in the room, the new conner
stepped up to the bar, and blandly ordered
four glasses of beer. The boots that had
adorned the top Of the stove now sought the
floor, three men cleared their mouths of to-.
bacco, and all looked at the barkeeper as he
filled the glasses and placed them on the
bar. When everything was ready, the three
loungers rose, and the stranger paid for the
beer. Then, starting with the glass furthest
from the door he emptied all that the barkeep-
er had filled, and very quickly left the saloon.
The three chairs were then resumed.

Rev. John G. Law,
And must tho farewell be spoken?
Parting always gives such pain,
Yet take from mo is parting token
sk IL. -

anu must tho 10roWell DC 6p0kenI
Parting always gives such pan,
Yet take from mo til is parting token
Bear it with thee Ger the main.
'Tis thus we feol MS with sad heart and tear
dimmcd eyes we say goodbye to our beloved
turn with his tender boncdction lingering in
our ear. For ono happy long to bo romom-
bored week it has been our high privilege to
sit under the ministration of this gifted man,
and listen as he told in his own immaculate
style the olden story, now, Of Jesus and
his cross. Tho deep solomnity and unwavor.
ing attention of his congregation bore unmiso
taxable evidence of tho high appreciation
which his profound scholarship, hiph-toned
and received Mover have we seon moro
entire conservation to tho work; coaseless and
untiring aro his lubors in tho Masters SER
vice. Day after day, night after night, he
stands pleading with tho wandering sheep of
''lsreal' to como baok into tho fold; pleading
with oil the boldness Of Petor the zeal of a
Paul and tho iapturo Of John. Gliding all
he touches with the magic wanl of genins,
like unto golden harp swept by skill(ul
hands, making sweet music in tho Christians
soul which time nor tide cannot cfface. Truly
ho is u man who has few equals and no supe-
riors, q crown jewel in tho South Carolina
Prospytcry, and we trust tho day is not far
distant when we shall hayo tho unqualified
pleasure Of welcoming him again to our vii
lage, once moro to sit Mt Gamaliels feet aud
learn of him tho Flaw and the prophets"
Till that auspcions day tho prayer which
rises in our hearts and to our lips is that his
life may be long, useful aud happy, that the
beloved Master whose he is and whom he
serves may crown his every effort with perfect
success and his harvest Of souls bo abundant.
Then when looaed from the moorings and
laying down tho chart and compass of life he
drifts out with tho tide may he near the starr
gcmmel diadem of eternity and have glori-
GUS anchorage.
Just beyond, whore tho streets all golden,
Await the weary feet,
Where tho angels glad hallclujahs
