By and by the congregation will get ahead of him, and then it must have another new skipper. The priest holds his own pretty well; the minister is coming down every generation nearer and nearer to the conimon level ot the useful citizen—no oracle at a , but a man of more than aver- t age moral i stincts, who, if he knows any - thine, kno s how little he knows. The ministers are good. talkers, only the struggle between nature and grace makes some of 'em a little awkward occasional- ly. The women do their best to spoil 'em, as they do the poets ; you find it very it very pleasant to be spoiled, no doubt; so do they. Now and then one them goes oyer the dam.: no wonder, they're always in the rapids. . By tlais time our three ladies had their faces all turned toward the speaker, like the weathercocks in a northeaster, and I thought it best to switch off the talk on to another rail. . How about the doctors f—I said. • Theirs is the least learned of the .pro- fessions, in this country at least. They have not half the general culture Of the - lawyers, nor a quarter of that of the min- isters. 1 rather think, though, they are • more agreeable to the common run of people thin the men with black coats or the men ,with green bags, Peopte can swear before 'em if they want to and. they can't very well before the ministers. • I don't care whether they want to swear or not, they don't want to be on their good. behavior. Besides, the minister has a little smack of the sexton about him; he comes when people are in ex- tremis; but they don't send for him every time they make a slight noral slip,—tell a he for instance'or smuggle a silk dress through the custom house ; but they call in the doctor when a child is cutting a • tooth exegete a splinter in it finger. So it closehit mean much to send. for him, only a pleasant chat about the news of the day; for putting the baby to rights doesn't take long. Besides, everybody doesn't like to talk about next world; people are modest in their desires, and find this world as good as they deserve; but everybody loves to talk physic. Eveiybocly loves to hear of strange cases; people are eager to tell the doctor of the wonderful Car38 they have heard of; they want to know, what is the matter with somebody or other who is said to be suf- fering from "a'complication of diseases," and above all th get a hard name, Greek or Latin, for: some complaint which sounds altogether too commonplace in plain English. If you will only call a headache a Cie' phalalgia. it ,acquires a dignity at once, and a patient 'becomes rather proud of it. So I think doctors are generally w8lconee inmost companies. In old times, when people were more afraid of the devil and. of witches than they arenow, they liked to have a priest or a minister somewhere near to scare 'em off e but nowadays, if you could. find an old woman that wpulde ride round the roora on e. ibroothetick, Barnuin would build an amphitheatre to exhibit her in; and if he could come across a young imp, with hoofs; tail, and budding horns, a lineal- -descendant of one of those " diemons " which. the good people of Gloucester fired at, and were fired. at by "for the best part of a month together" in the year 1692'the great showman would have him at any cost for his muse- um or menagerie. Men are cowards, sir, and are driven by fear as the sovereign motive. Men are idolaters and want something to look at and kiss and hug, and throw themselves down before ; they always did, they always will; and if you don't make it of wood, you must make it of words, which are just as much used for idols as promissory notes are used for values. The ministers ha-ve a hard time of it without bell and. boce and holy water; they are dismounted men 'M armor since Luther cut their ,sad- dle -girths, and. you can see they are quiet- ly taking off one piece of iron after an- • other, until some of the best of 'em are fighting the devil (not the zoological Devil with the big D) with the sword of the Spirit, and precious little else in the way of weapons of offence or defence. But we couldn't get on without the spiri- tual brotherhood, whatever became of ous special creeds. There is a genius for religion, just as there-_ is for painting en. sculpture. It is half-sister to the genius of music, and has some of the features whieh remind us of earthly k ve. But it lifts us all by its mere presence. To see a good man and hear his voice once a week would be reason enough for build- ing churches and pulpits.—Froni "the Poet at the Breakfast Table" in the At- lantic for May.

The lawyers are a picked lot, "first scholars," and. the like, but their business is as unsympathetic as Jack Ketch's. There is nothing humanizing in their re- lations with their fellow -creatures. They go for the side -that retains them. They defend the man they know to be a rogue, and eot very rarely throw suspicion on the man they know to be innocent. Mind. you, I am not finding fault with them; every side of the case has a right to the best statement it admits of; but I say it does nottend to make them sym- pathetic. Suppose in a ease of Fever vs. Patient, the .doctor should side with either party according to whether the old mise e or his expectant heir was his em- ployer. Suppose the minister should. side with the Lord or the Devil, according to the salary offered and other incidental advantages, where the soul of a sinner was in question. You can see what a piece of work it would inake of their sympathies. But the lawyers are quick- er witted than either of the other pro- fessiens'and abler men generally. They are good-natured, or, if they quarrel, their quarrels are above board. I don't think they are as accomplished. as the ministers, but they ha-ve a way of cram- ming -with special knowledge for a case which leaves a certain shallow sediment of intelligence in their memories about a good many things. They are apt to talk law in mixed company, and they have e *ay of looking round when they make a point, as if they were addressing -a jury, that is mighty aggrivating, as I once had occasion to see when one of 'em, and a pretty tamous one, put me on the witness - stand at a dinner party once. The ministers come next in point of talent. They are far more curious and widely interested. outside of their own calling than either of the other profes- sions. I like to talk with 'em.
