There lived in a certain neighborhood, ?"t far distant fr m here, a roystering, rowdy bully, named Jim Blanker. Jim was -sum ? iu a fi-ht, a kind of pugilistic Napoleon." Many and Woody were the affairs he had ' * Al } ii*. - * ar.d as invariab'y came oiT first bt-et. J;m not only considered hmioelf invulri. rable, bat all the figUtfng characters :a c'!e surrounding country cormeded it was no u-.e lighting Jim, as he waa eousiiere 1 to .be a patent ..ttreshing machine that could not be improve! on. In Jim's n igh b. rhood and f elii d quite a nu'nher of Qua kers. From some .cause or otji?r, Jim haled the " a had bailies," us he caned them, with hia entire heart; he often declared, :.bat to whip or e of th'31 inoff nyive people would be the crowning gluiy oi' his life. For years Jim waited for a pretext. Quo of Jim's chums overheard a young Q j-akev speak in disparaging terms, of hi. The report soon came to Jim's ears not a Utile magnified. J.m made desperate threats what he was going t> do with Nathan, the meek follower of Per,a, on sight, besides the vari u ? brusc3 and contusions he meant to iutiijv on nathan s body, iu his chaste lan guage, he meant io gouge out b)th eyes and chaw off both earn. Natbau heard of Jim's threats; and properly kept out of his way, hoping that time would monify his anger. It seems, however, that this much desired re-rait d;d not take place. One day Math in was out riding, and passing through a long lane, j when about midway, he espied Jim entering the other end. Nathan might ha?e turned , and 3eJ, but his flesh rebelled at recreating. " 1 'iil pursue my way peaceably," su l j the Q taker, "and t hope the better sense ! ot the mm of wrath will not pernjit him to j molest u\oy or allow him to do violence to my person." , Nathan's calculations as to the lamb like q t dities of hi-j ad versa ly, were doomed tv) j be disappointed "Oh hoi" thought the bully, as he re cognized Nathan, "1 have him at last N w I'w m.isf mi .ee meat of shai be.ly ! I will salo and pickle him too? ' saint Jioi seizing the bridle of Nathan's h <rse, and mimick ing his siyie ; " my heart yearned above all t iingj to give you the biggest mauling that ever a m m received." ?? Friend James," replied Nathan, 44 thou muit not molest mc, but let me go my way in peace. Thy better judgment will surely tell the that thou cannot possibly be benefit ted by personally injuring mo." "Get down in a moment!" thundered Jim; "get down, you canting, lying, mis chief-muking hypocrite. I'll drag you d^wn if you don't dismouut." 44 Friend James, I r/monstrate against thy proceeding and against tay language," . p.iCvl Nataan. 44 My re':gion 'caches me siacerily. I am neither a liar, a mischief m : !<- r, uor a hypocrite : I am no coward, but a man of peace ; I desire to pursue my way quiet y?let me' pass on." " Get down persisted Jim, 44 down with you ! I want to beat some of your religion out oi'you?I must give you a flogging be f. re I ;eave you. I think by the t'.me I am ifyough withjou, you will pass for a tol a-able honest, man. I will teach you, i.i h short and easy lessen, the importance of minding your own business, ana the risk y< u run in slandering your neighbors." 44 You won't won't you?" said Jim, "then here goes," and he made a desperate lunge to codar the Quaker. Nathan was on his feet in an instant, on me opposite side of the horse. Tae Quaker, although of much smaller proportions than his persecutor, was all sinew and muscle, and his well knit ferm denoted both act;rity and strength. His wrath was evident y enkindled. 14 Friend James," he impIoreJ, 44 thy per tinacious persist inee in persecuting me is exeeudiagiy annoying: thou mast desi-t per ad venture, I may so forget myself as to do thee some bodily harm." 4413y snakes!" said Jim, coming towards Nathau, " 1 belie vie there is fight enough in Broadbrim to make the affair interesting. I wieh some of the boys were here to see the fun. Now," continued Jim, " friend Nathan, I am going to knock off the end of your nose?lo?k out" Suiting the action to the word, Jim, after various pugilistic gyrations with his fista, made & scientfic blow at the usual formation ef our Quaker friend, but Ton Hjer could not more scientifically have warded it off. Jitn was evidently disconcerted at t!-:e ill success of his first attempt?lie snw lie had undertaken quite as much as lie w;ts likely to accomplish. Jim s, however, str.ujht ened himself out, an I approaching Nathan more cautiously. The contest b gun again. ! Nathan stood his ground final/, and skil ' fully warded off tho shower of blows which James aimed at him. I 44 Friend James," ar id Nathan in the heart I of the contest, 44 tlrs is mere < hild's play. ; It grieves n;e that thou hact forced me into i resistance, but I must defend myself from | _ : bodily harm. I see there is but o:;c way of ? bringing this scandalous afrVr to a close, and that is by my conquering ; m or i der to do this, I yvill inflict a heavy biow betweeu tllne eyes, which wi'l prostrate thee." Following out the fitig fatten, Nathan ! struck Jim a treaie .dous^bl nv on Lis f,re j head, which brought him scaselc's to the ground. "Now," said N ithan, 44I will teach thee : a lessen, and I hope it will be a wholesome | lesson, too. I will seat myself a-straddle ? of thy bieas'?I will place my knees upon | thy arms, thu?, a? that thou cannot injure ' nu when thoa returacst to consciousness. I hope I way be the humb'e instrument ot timing thy liorce and warlike nature, and making a better and more peaceful man of thee " As the Quaker concluded, Jim began to phow some returning signs of lifj. The i first impulse cf Jim when he fairly s iw hif? condition, was to turn Nathan off. lie ' struggled desperately, but he was in a vice?his efforts were unavailing. ''Friend, thee must keep still until I am done with thee," said Nathan. '*1believe I am an humble instrument in the bands of Providence to chastise thee, and I trust when I am done with thee, thou wilt be a changed man. Friend James, does thou not repent attacking me V* '?No, said J m, with an oath, ?'?let me up and I'll shew you." \ "I wi'l not let thc^ up, thou impious wretch," replied Nathan. "Darcst thou profane the name of thy Maker. I will cheek thy respiration for a moment." Nathan, as good a:? hi3 word cVu'ched Jim by the throat. Ho compressed his grip?a gurgling sound could be heard? Jim's face, became distorted?a tremor ran thro' his frame. He was evidently under going a process of strangulation. The Quaker relaxed his hold, but not until the choking process had suffi neatly, as be thought, tamed the prcversed spirit of Jim. It took some moments for Jim to inhale tuKieient air to address the Quaker. 44I knock under," said Jim, "enough! let me up." * 44 Nay, thou hast not got half enough," replied Nathan. "Thou art now under going a process of moral purification, and thou must be contented to remain where thou liest until I am done with thee. Thou just profaned the n\me of thy maker; con fess, dost thou rep2nt thy wickedness ?" 44 No, banged if I dj !'' growled Jim. 44 Thou perverse man," replied Nathan, in on imploring tone, 4' aly that thou r^pont est thy wickedness." ?'I'll b3 hanged if 1 da," said Jim. 44 Wilt thou not," replied the Quaker; 44 must I u>:e compulsory means ? I will compress thy windpipe again, unless thou give me an answer in the affirmative?eay quick, art thou sorry ?" 44 No, I?-I?yes," shrieked Jim in p gurgling tone, as the Quaker tightened his grip, 4'Yes, i am sorry!" 44 Is thy s irrow Godly sorrow?" inquired Nathan Jim rather demurred to giving an affirm ative answer to this queftioa, but a gentle squeeze admonished to him that he had bet ter yield. 44Yes," replied Jim, 44 my sorrow is a GocT.y sorrow." 44 A godly sorrow Icadetb to repentance," replied Nathan; 44 we are progressing finely. Thou said but just now that I was a cant ing, lying, cowardly, misihief-making hyp ocrite. Ttou wronged me in asserting those things, and slandered my persuasion. I Dost thou recall thoee assertions?" 44 Yes," replied Jim, 44 uow let me go." 441 am not done with thee yet," said Na than ; 44 thou hast been a disturber of the peace of this neighborhood time out of > mind?thy hand has been raised against every man?thoa art a brawler. Wilt thou promise me that in future thou wilt lead a more peaeeful life, that thou wilt love thy neighbor as thyself?" "Yes," answered Jim, hesitatingly, "all but the Quakers." I -M. *4 t_ -?*? #22 -*? j i ^ "Thou must nuke no exceptions," re r litd Nrtthan; *'1 insist oa an aChmative answer." A ig^'e hot ensued between the two, b it -Tiiii hud-his ma*cli. " Thou mast vied, James, I insist on it," Kai'.l Nath 11, and he again jrr.-.spe i Jim b\* the threat* *? i will choke thee into ti?ii mission; thou mast answer aair.aativelvr: say fifltr me. I promise to love iuy noi^hWi as myself, it; Ru ling the Qu ;kor." 441 won't promise that, I'll be curse 1 ii' I do," iep'ieJ Jim. " I will check thy respiration, ii thou don't.* Wilt thon yield? ' " No I w.-tt't, 1 11 be blasted if I do/' an swered Jim. 44 Thee hid better give in; I will choke tl.ee av-uiu, ii' thee ^.o s not; see, my tig! tens," replied Nathan. And N ithan (I'd compress his rra~p, ur.0 the choking process went on. Jim's lac ? f.rst become'distorted, then pv'.rp'.e; his tongue lolled out, and hi* ejea protruded iVcm their soekcts ? his bo.ly writhirg liko a dying man's Nathan persisted in hold ing his grip until Ji n became entirely pas sive, he then relaxed his hold. Ji:n was slow in recovering his speech ati hit* senses; when ho did, h i b :gged Nathan for mercy's sake to release him. " When ts.ee wi 1 make the p.romi-:e I ex act from thee, I will release thee, but no sooner," replied Nathan. Jim saw he was powerless, and that the Quaker was resolute. lie felt it was no use to persist in his stubbornness. 441 will give in: I will promise to love my neighbor's myself," he r<-plie I. 44 Including the Q ;ukers," insinuated Na than. <4 Yes, including the Quakers," replied Jim. 44 Thou mayc3t arise, then, friend Jame?: and I trust the lesson thou hast leameJ to-day will make a more peaceable citizen of thee, and I hops a better msn," answered Nathan. Poor J.m was entirely humble; he left the field-with his spirits completely cowed. Not lorg after this occurrence, the story camc bruited about, lie soon after the scene of his mary triumphs, and hi* late disastrous defeat, emigrated to the Far West. The last I hei^rd of him >.e was pre paring to make another move. Being press ed for his reasons why he again emigrated, he said a colony, of Qaakers were about moving into his neighborhood. Ho was under obligations to love thorn, but bo was of an opinion that distance would lend strength to his attachment. [-V. Y.
