GRIMsLyY LAUGHED.

GkIMSLEI LAUtHED.
II is related that on a summers day In the
long ago Barnett Grimsey,. the eloquent.
was preaching at one OF his country
churches. At the end Of the centre aisle
the front door opened out into the yard.
There before him Mr. Grimsley saw man
sitting on the step fast asleep, with
his head rising and falling as regu-
larry as o "baby- jumper" The preacher
noticed a goat also. not many feet
away from the step, which was
very intent upon the motions of the
sleeper's head. That goat looked cross,
eyed at that man, paved the grass. and
shook his horns and whiskers every time
that Morpheus caused the head OF the
aforesaid sleeper TO nod. His olllyshlp
finally concluded that the man YVES pam
tering him for butt, and 1t dld not
take him long TO decide upon what ne
should do. The goat shook his mighty
beard once more, gave his head a
twist, ran at the sleeper and butted nun
squarely of the steps. Although Mr..
Grimsley was in the midst OF bis sermon;
he not only smiled but laughed. and
laughed heartily. We believe that the
chairman of the faculty of Richmond Col
lege even, under those circumstances
would have had his risibles completely
overcome by that goat.
