I lia,l once the misfortune to be a bookseller, an itinerant one, I mean one of those who go throrjgh the coun try (that's iliclr story) not because they like the business, or that "it fays" but for the benevolent purpose of en lightening the world; for the especial benefit of their fellow "human beings." That's the Idnd of a mission necessity called upon me to go on, and I went. A carpet-bag, a blue, cotton um brella, several 'specimen conies of works too stale to find :stale, without the in the bookstores, a small, leath er-batiked blank book to receive sub scribcrs' names, and I was accoutered for the "tramp." . .. . I? t.cccmpanied by the above . men tioned accompaniments, . accordingly, one autumn morning, mounted the vil lage post-chaise) a clumsy, ricketly veliicle, which plied, weekly between Beanville and a portion of country commonly known as the "uncivilized regions," to vrhich I, with the very best motives, directed my course. After rolling, rumbliDg - and turn bling over "corduroy" roads for about fifte n miles, I got out, at a very smal town, bid my gruff friend the coach driver a rather brief adieu, and struck out into the eauntry. - - -I soon brought. up to a farmer's house, surrounded with stables and pig-stys in rather close.; proximity amcnjT which I found the old fellow feeding his hogs. "Good morning," said I, with a bow. ' . . : After staring at me for about ami nute, he managed to mutter "mornin!' and then went to punching the larger "porkers" to prevent their taking the advantage of their smaller brethren. "lias nromise oi a tine dav, l re marked. ; ' ' A shrng of his shoulders was my only answer; accordingly I changed the subject. "Got some fine hogs there," I ven tured to say. - " "Footy good," was his reply as he left off List admonitory exercise, sat doivnliis slop-pail and looked in my face rather inquisitively. "Weigh about three hundred." - "Guess . they .'will, stranger," he chuckled, "mighty fine hogs, thern." , "Specking of hogs," wouldn't you like to buy a boot on 'live stock V " "A look) stranger; I never know'd you could fatten the 'critters' with books or newspapers cither." . "O, yes I I returned, "books arc valuable assistants ia farming general ly, and keeping stock, in particular. "Feed 'em whole, or- chopped up, was his query i "You are mistaken in my meaning, I repliccL "You clo not feed your books to youf stock, but from1 their pages learn the proper method offeed- inz ilicm on (Train." "O, bother to your nonsense," he grovrlingly remarked as he moved off. "Jist as if I warn'! the oldest stock raiser in these parts. And," continued he, "I ain't a goin': to have my 'xperi- ence made fun of in that way neither'- : ,. I went out at the gate, but prompted by mischievousness turned, as he reached his porch, and hallooed, "Say, old fellow, better buy a book on geese ' "Here Ti:rer! Here Pomp!" shout ed he, as he dropped his pail by the door, and at his -call two ferocious ani malsa mixture of hound and cur responded with their immediate pre fence and confounded hcicls. -' "Look there !" said he, pointing" at mv swiftly vamcsiE fcrm "nail him! w ake him ! 7 . The voracious brutes insfantlv obey- ed, and before I made ' three hundred ; yards from the house the tanral var mints came so close upon mc that wr.s obliged to "tree," which I facsti ously accomplished by" swrnging my self "into the fork'of a' friendly (Dr pling near by, taking my carpet-sack with me and all, just in time to escape he gnarling "incissors" of 4Tiger." .The way they "caved" around that ree was beautiful, leaping and yelling, yelling and leaping till the focra drop ped from their jaws in prodigious drops, and I, the. while kindly assisting them by flinging down upon their irritated backs squads of green, hard walnuts. For the first half hour the fun was all on my side, and I enjoyed ii; huge- y; but presently the walnuts became scarcer, and in proportionate ratio the owls pi en tier, until only . The fear of something that undiscovered country' cept me from precipitating myself on "icrra fcrma" right "in their midst." After reasoning the 'matter ' in my own mind for some minutes, I finally settled down - on my perch, with as much dignity as under the circum stances I could command," persuading myself it was quite a romantic posi tion after all, and determined to "take things as they come." The infernal hounds done the same, seating . them selves quietly on the ground, one on each side of the sapling, and from their upturned snouts an occasional whine burst forth. Noon came on and I began to grow hunCTV. " A similar feeling seemed to be prompting my guardians, for their anxiety ivas evidently increasing every moment; ; They again circled the tree howling and tearing the"bark from the trunk and leaping in the air in th vain hope of tearing me from my asylum. " The old farmer returned from his field to dinner I saw him come down to the crate in the direction of head- quarters."- I felt relieved; I felt cef tain he would call away his dogs, "and let me go. "Sic him Tige sic him Pomp I" shouted he, and waving his straw - hat over his head several times, accompa nied with a couple of stentorian yells he quietly returned to the house. , The dogs, as a matter of course, pitched their tune from C to A and kept on. O, how . I wished ". for a Sharpe's rifle, a Colt pistol, the old "fuzee" I shot birds with in days -gone by, or even, the "sross-bow" ..of my. juvenil ity. . . ,: - . xlthoughno cannibal, I could with gravity almost have drunk the blood of them, 'tarnal curs-r-provided I could have got it I was, at any rate, awful hungry, and thirstier than hun gry, and madder than thirsty. In about an hour the old straw hat came down so the ate again, accom panied by its owner, but instead of halting and going through with man euvers, the two came on leisurely to ward Gur (my and the dogs') station. "Got any books trcatin on geese', to sell here, hey ?" said the old fellow, as he came up. I hadn't a word to say for myself. "See here, stranger, you must be puriy good game, or them 'ere dogs wouldn't stick to you so close. Now Tve got a bit of a bargain to perpose to you. If you'll throw me that carpet-sack o' journ, books and all down here, Til take these dogs away and let you go home and go to weedin' corn for your daddy or some other sensible 'mplovment.

Seein"- no other alternative I pitch- Prl "valnables" "scese works", and all at him, which he seized instanter nr.fl nnrr.hpd off with , "Tirre" and "Pomp" at his heels. I shed no tears; not that I loved the carpet-sack I bui feared these curs nwrc ; and when thfi o-fitft closed on thoso bipeds, I slid from my perch and doped.

We quote the following, written by Rev. H. W. Beech eh, from the N. Y. Independent : God's pity abides, even as He abi des, and partakes of the divine grand eur and omnipotence, lhere is a whole eternity in it, for substance and "duration. As God himself cannot be measured with lines of latitude and longitude, but is boundless, so is His every attribute. His pity is infinite, moving with equal step to all the oth er attributes of liod, and holdms his course and path as far forth as omni science doth; it passes with omnipre sence along the circuits of infinity ! .tor as heaven is high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that fear Him. As far as the east is far from the west so far hath He re moved our transgressions from us ! God's pity ia not as some sweet cordial, poured in . dainty drops from some golden phial. It is net like the musical water-drops of some slender rills murmurin down the dark sides of Mount Sinai. It is wide a3 the whole cope of heaven. It is abundant as all tho air. If one had art to gath- j er up all the golden sunlight that to day falls wide over all this continent falling through every silent hour; and all that is dispersed over the whole ocean, Hashing from every wave; and all that is poured refulgent over the northern wastes of ice, and along the whole continent of Europe, and the vast outlying Asia and torrid Africa ; if one could in any way gather up this immense and incalculable outflow and treasure of sunlight that falls down through the bright hours, and runs in liquid ether about the mountains, and fills all the plains, and sends innumer able rays through every secret place, pouring over and filling every flower, shining down the sides of every blade of grass, Testing in glorious humility upon the humblest, things---on stick, and stone, and pcbhle; on the spider's web, the sparrow's nest, the threshold of the young foxes' hole, where they play and warm themselves that rests on the prisoner s window, that strike radiant heam3 through the slave's tear, that puts gold upon the.fldow's weeds, that plates and roofs the city with burnished gold, and goes on in its wild abundance np and down the earth, shining everywhere, and always, since the . day of primal creation, without ialtenng, without stint, without waste or diminution; as full, as fresh, as over flowing to-day, as if it were the very first day of its outplay! if one might gather up this boundless, endless, in finite treasure, to measure it' then miht he tell the heigh! ccc depth; and unending glory of the pity of God! In light in the sun, its source you have Ixod s own figure of the immen sity and copiousness of His mercy and compassion. - - This divine party applies to U3 on account of our weakness. God looks upon our littleness, as compared with His angels that ' excel in strength, much', it may be supposed as we look upon little children as compared with grown-up men. . . . ' 1 Divine pity is exercised in view of our sufferings, both of body and of mind. . Wc sometimes fear to brinz our troubles to God, because they must seent so mall.to llim: who sitteth on the circle of the earth. ; But" if they arelarre cnouh to vex and endanger our. welfare j they are large enough to touch LLis heart of love; For love doe3 not . measure by a. merchtnis scale,-nor with a surveyor's chain. It hath a delicacy which is unknown in any handling of material substance. It sometimes seems as if God czrred for nothing. The wicked are at case. The good arc vexed incessantly. The world is full of misrule and confusion. The .darling of the flock is always made the sacrifice." - Some . child, in the very midst of its glee, becomes suddenly silent as a music-box, its spring civinfr way, stop3 in the midst of its strain, and never plays oat the melody. The mother staggers, and wanders through day and night, as if these were mingled into one, and that shot t. trtmnh with nrctci-natural influ- - W m,m- w w , - If ' enc ceofwo; But think not that God's silence is coldness or indifference.- : When Christ stood by the dead, the silence of tears interpreted hi3 sym pathy more wonderfully than even that voice which afterwards called back the footsteps of the brother from the rrrave ' and plant id th Cm in life ariin!

By-and-by, when you gather their fruit, it will be time to judge His mer cy. Now "no afHiction for the present seemeth .to be joyous but grievous; nevertheless, afterwards, it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised there by." Trouble is like any other crop. It needs time for crowincr, blossoming growing, and fruiting. T7ILL IT A YAHNING t " A. correspondent of - the. .Boston Journal savs that the wife of Hunting ton, the forger, has been stripped of her home and her all in one hour. The sheriff has sold her house over .her head. Her jewels, valued at 15,O00; are with the Beldcn3. What has been done with the vast sums Huntington had, none can tell. But this is true, that want, like .an armed . man,. has come into his family. And .to keep herself from absolute want she has been compelled to par; with her clothes and her little ornaments and remnants of better days. So the career of crime has one more beaten4 set iip in the pathway of life one more family has been hurled from the summit of high position and honor in a moment one ... ?p- 'rf lx :? 1- v ' more vne anu moxner to . gainer up her little children, on whose heads dishonor has been e tamped, without their fault, black as the brand of Cain, and go out from a comfortable home, to meet want, and scorn, and brave the cold, glassy eye of the world, and feel the hot breath of its sneer one more example is given to us to teach how the same talents which led to high crime and the prison, employ ed aright could confer honcr and per manent success on the possessor, and be a blessing to the land., Like a con vict who falls from a ship, Huntington has parted and agitated the waves for a moment, and gone down beneath the surge, and the rolling flood sweeps over his place, and the tide cf life waves on forgetting that he ever lived. But who will be counselled, warned, saved by his end? Who will believe the lesson that thousands of years have taught, that integrity and honor are the only paths to permanent svz cess? Phil:. Times: ZISS 02 FIGHT. : - There are few married men who are not averse of seeing their wives kiss ed. But an exchange relates the parti culars of a case . in - which - a newly wedded Benedict felt-himself insulted because his wife wasn't kissed. : The bridegroom in question was a stalwart young rustic who was known as a for midable operator in a "free fight." . His bride was a blooming and beautiful country girl, only sixteen yclrs of age, and the twain were at a party where a number of young folks of both -sexes were 'enjoying themselves, in the good old-fashioned, pSwn-playih' style. Every girl ih the ropni was called out and kissed except Mrs. B., the beauti ful young bride aforesaid, although there was not a youngster s present who was not dying to taste her: lips they were restrained by the presence of her herculean husband, who stood regarding the party with a look of sul len dissatisfaction. They mistook the cause of his anger, however, for sud denly he expressed himself. Rolling up his .sleeves, he stepped into the middle of the room, , and in a tone of voice that secured marked at tention, said : "Gentlemen, I have been noticing how things have, been, work ing, here for seme time', and I ain't half satisfied. I den t want to raise a fuss, but" ' "What s the matter, John ?" inquired half a dozen voices. "What do you mean ! Have we done' any thing to huTt your feelings?" , "Yes, you have; all of you have hurt my feelings, and I've got just this to say about ifc. Here's every girl in the room has been kissed nih a dozen times a piece," and there s mv .wife, who I consider as likely a3 any of 'cm, has not had a single one to-night; and I just tell you! now; ij; the don't get as many kisses the balance of the time as any gal in the room, the man that slights her has got to. fight thaf s all.

The accounts, however, a 3 in all fab les, do not agree. One version is this: When Jesus wa3 led to death, oppres sed by tho weight of the cross, he . wished to rest himself a little near the ate, before the house of a shoe maker named Ahasuerus. Tms man. however, sprang forth and thrust lirn away; Jesus turned towards bib; saying, "I shall rest, but thou shah move on until I return' And freni that; time hchas had no rest, and i:i obligcd incessantly to wander about.. Another version is that given by Ma thias -Parisicsaisj a monk 'of the thir teenth century : When Jesus was led from the tribunal of Pilatus to death; the doorkeeper, named Cartafilius, pushed him from behind with his feet, saving : "Walk on, Jesus, quickly, why dost thou tarry V Jcsxis looked at him gravely, and said : "I walk or., but thou shall not tarry till I comcj-' And this man, still alive; wanders from place to place, inconstant dread of the " wrath to come. . A third, legend add:?, that this wandering Jew falls sick ev- cry hundred years, but recovers; and renews his .strength ; hence it js flat, after so many cent-rics, he does not look much older than septuagenarian. Thus for the legends. Not one of tho ancient authors makes eveii meiiticri of such an account. The first who reports some such things is a monk of the thirteenth century, when, as is known, the world wns'nlled to di?gusi with pious fiction. However, the sto ry has rprca 1 far, so that it haj becomu . a proverb "He. rrs3 about like a wandering Jew." There are not per sons wanting who "assert to have seen the wandering Jew. But when th?ir evidence is examined by. tho test . cf historical credibility, it is found thc:V some impostor has maae use. cf.
