An Editor S Luck.

An editor in Chicago recently or
dered a pair of trousers from the tail
or. On trying them on they proved
to be several inches too long 1t be-
ing late on Saturday night, the tsilors
shop was closed and the editor took
the trousers to his wife and asked her
to cut them off and hem them over.
The good lady, whose dinner bad per-
haps disagreed with her, brusquely
refused. The same result followed an
application to the wife's sister and
eldest daughter. But before bed time
the wife, rslenting, took the pants
and cutting off six inches from the
leg, hemmed them up nicely and re-
stored them to the closet. Half an
hour later her daughter, taken with
compunction for the unflial conduct,
took the trousers and cutting of six
inches, hemmed and replaced them.
Finally the sister-ln-law felt the psngs
of conecience and she, too, performed
an additional surgical operation on the
garment. When the editor appeared
at breakfast on Sunday the family
thought a Highland chieftsin had ar,

IAN religion Sellm renouneed Mohsm-
mechanism, professed his desire to be
disciple of the Lord Jesus and became
very anxious TO return to his native
land and tell his friends about the
dear Saviour be had found.
His new friends, Capt. Dickinson,
Pastor Craig and others, endeavored
to dissuade him from going back to his
fathers house in Algiers.
He was so determined, however, to
return that no persuasion wouldavail,
aud so Mr. Craig furnished him mon
ey contributed by himself and others
and sent him on to Williamsburg with
letter introducing him to Hon. Rob-
ert Carter, of Westmoreland county,
but at the time resident of Williams
burg. Mr.. Carter genero sly did all
that was requested Of him, furnished
Selim more money and secured pass
age for him to England.
A few years thereafter Selim re-
turned to Virginia in demented con-
dition with lucid intervals During
snch intervals he would tell that he
had gone home and was gladly well
coined But when his father learned
that bis son had renouuced lslamism
and had professed to be a Christian,
he was disowned as a son and driven
off to be ever dislnherited
From Williamsburg he made his
way to the old home near Windy
Cove. Bath county, Va, thence he
wandered to the Warm Springs,
here he met a young miulsternamed
Templeton, who made him a gift of a
Greek Testament, which Srlim priced
highly and ever read 1t with great de-
light.
From the Warm Springs he went
to Mr.. Carter's residence in West
moreland county, and wherever be
went he elected the sympathies Of all
that came to know hi- history.
While a member of Congress at
Philadelphia Governor Page took Sc
lin to that city and had him sit for a
portrait in the studio OF Peale, the re-
nowned artist From Philadelphia
Selm went home with a South Caro-
lima gentleman.
He paid one or more visits to friends
in Prince Edward county, Va, where
be learned to sing Watts hymns.
For while he was a patient in the
Williamsburg Lunatic Asylum but he
finally died in private house, where
