A loquacious young man came to Iso- a crates to learn the art of oratory. Ibgrates asked him double price. "Why c lrge me c double t" asked the youth. Isoctates re plied, " Because I mast teach yog two sci 'aces-the one, how to be silent; the other, V how to speak." A young man was tried on the chrge of E having murdered both his fatherand mother. d The crime was fully proven, and the judge, before passing sentence, asked the criminal 6 if he had anytjing to say. "Nothing," he answered, "except to beg your honor t remember that I am an orphan."

At a theatrical fund dinner, Mr. Buck stone once gave as account of a remarkably appeeciative audience be had once had at Duomfries. Esp~eially was hedelighted ]by the occupants of the dress circle, who twere more uproariously hilarious than even the galleries, taking every point instantly, and greeting it with shrieks of laughter ana obstreperous applause. At the close of the play, the comedian could not refrain from congratulating the manager on having such an excellent audience, especially in the boxes. "Yes," said the manager, " they did enjoy themselves amasingly. They are all mad folks." It is the system of the asy lum doctor here to amuse his patients, and he took pretty nearly all the seats in the ress circle to-night.'

The young Tobias was r ed at his good fortune in meet ng a tanger so qualified and willing attend im; he introduced him to his thr, who was equally pleased with the doand friendly promises of the come ,h tht be would conduet his son to at ]Rag and bring him home again. uder the rm and name of a tra velling raelite, jphael began to direct thetep if youn Tobias with peculiar care, whidhbas always looked upon as a specimen of that care which our guard tan angels Ie'e o er us. They travelled together till tihe, red at Rages. When they came w I C of the town, his guardian in lab that they must lodge with one et, and that he should demand his onl laughter is marriage. Tobles was a t he ropoal, for he knew that shbe been already gve to seven different bas , one after anoth er, who,. through t eaiice of the devil, had been all killed very first night af ter their marra.e r easoned away his fears, by telling that those who married with good in need not fear the devil's power. The ung Tobas, so ppdin to the angel's on, went to el's house where he with a friend ,y welcome. When dbann was ready, To bias made his proposals to , and de aared that he would neithe nor drink in his house unless he would t promise to grant his daughter Sarah marriage. Raguel, knowing what had pened to her former husbands, knew not hat an swer to give. As hbe stood n sus cial Providence his daughter had , re served for Tobias, and, therefore, one hitherto could have her. Raguel ha no farther doubt. The matrimonial con t was then taken down in writing; t made merry and blessed God. At nigh Bagnel expecting nothing loss than the death of Tobias, ordered-hkl grave to be prepared, but, surprised in the moruing.to find him safe and sound, he filled up the grave, and gave free scope to the trans ports of his joy. The good parents of To bias were all this while in great anxiety about their son, whose absence began to seem very long. His mother went every day to the top of the hill, to see if she could descry him coming; she at last per ceived him, and ran with grat haste to im part the joyful tidings to her husband. The old father, who was blind, rose up, and'giving a servant his hand, ran stumb ling on to meet his son. They eagerly em braced each other; they. poured drt the. tears of gladness intoone another's bosoms, and' when they had -adored and-given thanks to God, they sat down together. As the angel told him, e produed7 the gall of the fish that dlrted from tBTigris to de vour him, rubbed his father's eyes with it, and immediately rpatored, him to sight. As a reward to the-faithful guide, to whose service they.attributed their good fortune, the family of Tobias offered half of their propry. 2 nlhe angel then thought it was time to let them know whohe was ; he told them that his name was 'Raphael, one of the seven spirits, that constantly attended before the throne of God ; that he bhad been command ed by Almighty God to accompany the son in that visible manner, and that "when old Tobias prayed with tears, and did bury the dead, and did leave his dinner, and did hide the dead by day in his house, and bury them at night, he offered up all these prayprs and fastings and alms-deeds to the Lord, and that they were acceptable in His eyes. Then the angel gave them his bless ing, and vanished out of sight.-Young Crusader. A BRAVE Boy.--The city of Lyons wit nessed in 1825 a striking instance of brave ry and humanity in a boy, of fourteen. There was a soldier on the bridge across the Rhone, who appeared to be in state of . great agitation. Suddenly he stopped and remained motionlets for some time, look ing over the parapet of the bridge into the water, and presently threw himself into the river. A lad named Vigoreaz, who saw the af fair, said to his younger brother who was with him, "Come, let us save him," and immediately they plunged into the river and succeeded in dragging the unhappy soldier tothe bank, but not without much risk and difficulty. "There," said Vtgoreux to his brother in high *lee "I knew we could save him if we tried.'; A crowd of people gathered around them, and collected a good sum of money to re ward the boys for their bravery, who re ceived the recompense with much indiffer ence; but the interest of the Scene was greatly increased when the boys were seen to five the money they had received to the soldier, and a shoot of applause saluted their eans. It was ascertained that the soldier sought death in a fit of despair because he had lost in gambling the money he had re ceived to pay his expenses to a distant place, besides other money intrusted to him by a comrade. STayn NOTES ON IRELAND.- Distant about seven miles from Westport and rising over the southern margin o0 Clew SBay, stands Oroagh Patrick, the notable Soonical bill before referred to. Its height is 2520 feet, and from its top a view of rare bbeauty is obtainable. But what gives it chief interest are the old traditions of St. Patrick which hang about it. In the life of Sthat saint, by Jocelin of Furness, we find I recorded an act of the saint, having for its I scene the same mountain-top. "Even from .the time," says Jocelin, "of its original in habitants, did Hibernia labor uuder a three a fold plague; a swarm of poisonous crea Stures, whereof the number could not be a counted; a great concourse of demons visibly appearing; and a multitude of evil Sdoers and magicians. * * * And the most Sholy Patrick applied all his diligence unto s the extirpation of the three-f_ plague. 1 And at length, by his sal try..oje and fervent prayrer, he relieved Btiberni of the Zin :sdae usebeie Tbeqfare ha, .mos exigent~ lamerbore en h0. ! the staff of Jesus, a, btbh he gathered egetbee o as ptt Sisland all the peilso m s o r$e plae Then compelled bete a a tC high promontory whleh then was C m-Atlgs, but now Creachan SPhadoig, and by the power of hisb wor be Sdrve the whole pestilent swarm fees the t precipice of the mountain headlong ipto a the ocean." At certain seasons we may a o.ften .asctolitary peasants, who pase from o statio toatation on the mountain, pausing Sin earnei prayer at each, In prati eof a e time-honored pilgrimage, dating back for u origin to long ere Dane or Norda. eursed e thii land. Very beautiful, indeef,.. the i view which breaks upon the delighted eye of him who has mounted to Craig-Patrick's g top. We suppose a clear day and the Stime chosen towards sanset. Let us try e and picture the scene. Beneath his feet, half a mile almost sheer dow*, the mighty o swell of the great Atlantic is rolling in e upon the shore those waters which have boomed along no other land since last they ebbed from off the. New World's strand. r Clew Bay, with its hundred isles, many of these clad in Nature's loveliest vesture, covered with green trees, spreads its ide waters far in upon the land. Hill-topnd mountain ranges are scattered on all sides a round, and all this glorious scene of water tree and aill bathed In the golden light of a departing sun. The watcher on tpe height will gladly linger until the shades e of evening have put an end to all the lovely Seanges on the face of nature that witching Shour brings out.-lrish limes. What are we to think of the following y just geported at Chicago I Mrs. Milia wi o dow and keeper of a genteel bnarding r house, "went for" Mr. Knapp, a Methodist Sminister, beaesuse he had asked another o lady to go with him to hear Nilsson. , She Sassulted him in bed with snuff and a raw hbde, and being sued for the assault was flood fifty dollars. Now why should Mrs. | Mills enjoy such luxuries at a lower rate . than Miss Thompson t It is true that Mr. Knapp had been a suitor for the affections of the outraged widow-had indeed pur sued her with importunity for more than - a year, and conquered her heart by dint of - persevering entreaty-and the original of f;ense of inviting the other lady to hear a Nileson may~have been set off against the o regular price of a Chicago horsewhipping; 't but then it is also true that Mr. Knapp bas a wife alsaedy,and wasonly "conditionally engaged" to Mrs. Mille, the condition e being not wholly unconnected with a pros 1e tive divorce from his present spouse; o not even a Chicago court can pretend 1e th a widow has an exclusive claim to the _ at tions of a married minister-a claim, . that of a' nature to be enforced with raw-hi s. We can only conclude that o editors i Chicago are rare and extremely , precious a cles, and that Methodist minis i ters are very little thought of indeed. INSURAXCE COMPANIES.
