The following little story is a touch- ing one, and the hero thereof is a well ke7own young gentleman of this city: He has been somewhat wild in his ,hab- its in the past, but for four months he had abstained from drink and spent his eveniugs at home. Orie eveniug, three weeks ago, he went out .calling, and some oue gave him a glass of wine. This aroused the sloesPing fiend, and he went ou a grand carouse. For three days he lost all Mastery over himself, and scarcely knew where he was. On the morning of the fourth clay he was comparatively sobered up. Ile wander- ed into the readiug-,room of One of our hotels,. where ho was well known and sat down and stared moodily into, the street. Presently a little -girl of about ten y08.1.13 ectiae in, and looked timidly around the room. She was dresead in rags, but she hacl a sweet, intelligent face that could. scarcely fail to excite sympathy. There were five persens in the room, and she went to each, beg- ging. One gentleman gave her a. five - cent piece, ana sho then went to the gentleman spoken of and asked hirk for pennyadding, " I haven't hadany- thing to eat for a whole day." The gentleman was all out of humor twd he said, crossly : " Dou't bother ; go away ! I haven't had anything to eat fur three days." The child opened. her eves in shy wonder and stared at him for a moinent, and then walked slowly toward the door. She turned the knob and then, after hesitating a - few seconds, she turned quickly and walkede straight up to him who had alpoken so ill-naturedly, and gently lay - In the five cents she had received on his knee said, with a tone of true girl- ish pity in her voice, -"If you haven't had anything to eat • for three days, you take this and g� and buy , some bread. Perhaps I can get some More some- where." Tho young fellow •blushed to the roots of his hair, and lifting` the rniniatare Sieter of Charity in his arms he kissed her two or three times, in de- light. 'Then he took her to the persons in the room and to thoee in the corri- dors and the office, and told the story and asked contributious, giving himself all the money he had with him. He succeeded in raising over forty idol- lars, and sent the kindly -hearted one on her way rejoicing.—Pittsbu,reh. Tele- graph. One -Half to the Triformant. • An" Old Doctor" contributes to the Charlottesville (Va.) Chronicle the fol- lowing ainusing story : . " In Colonial times, Velaps Col. Archi- bald Cary was a magistrate, living at Williamsburg, a man who was much disliked by his neighbors on account of, his vindictiveness and general mean- ness, came before the Colonel aena in- formed him that his neighbor, Jan Brown, had violated the 'game law by killing a deer before the 1st of Septem- ber. Now, although Brown was a good, honest, poor man, much esteemed by his acquaintances, Esquire Cary was bound to issue a warrant for his arrest, and, when Brown appeared before him, he confessed that he had , killed the deer, knowing at the time he was vio- lating the law; but that his wife had a great longing for veniscsn, and, knowing that the deer daily frequented his corn field, she gave him no peace. He had begged her to wait a little while, till the 1st of September, but ,she vowed she would not wait. So he killed the deer. The old niagistrate, seeming full of com- passion, said: " Brown, the law is explicit; you will have to pay the fine, which -is. five pounds.' " Bless your heart? Col. Cary,' said Brown, all I have ou earth would not sell fel: five pounds.' ; " Well, then,' said the Justice, turn- ing to the law and readiug, without pay - ins, strict attention to punctuation or the exact position Of the words: Who- ever shall be gui•lby a shooting, snar- ing, trapping, or in any way killing a deer within this, His Majesty's Colony ef Virginia, at any time between the 1st • of May and the lst of September, shall pay a fine of £5, and, if he is unable to do this, the punishment shall be award- ed by 39 lashes on the I bare baelt, well laid ou, one-half to be given to the in- formant and the other half to the King.'

Beau Nash and Tohn _Wesley. -We have always thought Wesley's re - centre with Beau Nash; art Bath, a fair • illustration of his quiet and almost obe scurely sarcastic method of quite suffi- ciently confounding a troublesome per- son. Preaching in the open air at Bath, the King of Bath, the Master of the Ceremouies, Nash,' Was so unwise as to attenapt'to put down the apostolic mau. Nash's character was bad.; it -was, that of an idle, heartless, licentious dangler on the skirts Of high society-. He appeared in the crowd, and autherita- tively asked Wesley by what right he dared to stand there. The coner„ egation wp.s not -wholly of the poor; there were a number of fash- ionable and noble persons present, and among them many with whom this at- tack had been pre -arranged., and. who expected. to see thedisComfiture of the Methodist, by the courtly and fashion- -able old. dandy. I. - Wesley replied to thequestion simply and quietly, that he steed there by the authority of Jesus Christ, conveyed to him "by the present Archbishop of Canterbury, when he laid hands on me, and. said, " Take thou authority to preach the Gospel !" • • Nash began to bustle and. to be tur- bulent; and he exclaim:ed— " This is contrary to . Act of Parlia- ment ; this is a conventicle." "Sir," said Wesley, "the Act you re- fer to applies to seditious meetings: here' is no sedition, noehadow of sedi- tion -; the meeting -is not, therefore, con- trary to the Act." . . Nash stormed, "-I say it is; besides your preaching frightens people out' of their wits." "Sir," said. Wesley, "give me leave to ask, Did you ever hear me preach ?" " Howethen, can you judge of what yOU have never beard?" "Sir, by common report." - "Common report is not enpugh," said Wesley; again, give me leave to ask is your name not Nash ?" "My name is Nash." • And the reader must inaagine Wes- ley's thin, clear, piercing . voice, cutting through the crowd— _ "Sir, 1 .dafe not judge of yoa by com- mon report. There does not seem muchin it, but the effect was overwhelming. • To Accommodate the Lady. Writing while on the • railroad Mr. Burdotte• of the Burlington Ilawkeye says :. how, or other, I am always the victim in cases of this delicate nature. Just as I; expected. She' speaks, fastening .lier commanding gaze upon me. • " Sir, would itobe asking too much if I begged you, to let myself and my little. girl have that seat? A gentleman can always find a. seat so much more easily than a lady." And she smiled. Npt the charming - est kind of a smile. .It was too tri- umphant to be very pleasing. Of course I surrendered.. I said: "Oh, 'certainly, certainly. . 1 could find an- other seat without any trouble." She thanked me, and I crawled. out A W01118.11 With three bird cages and a little girl has just got on the train.

I was so bad that I could hardly get my breath. I sought for a quick remedy, and seeing the " Shoshonees Remedy" so highly recommended, I procured a bottle, and am happy to say that by the time it was taken I was entirely well, and have remained so, although I was much exposed through the winter in travelling." Rev. F. B. Stratton, Dem- orestville, writes: "1 have found your re- medies particularly beneficial for liver complaint, dyspepsip. and bronchial affections, and would advise all similarly affected to give them a trial." John Finlayson, Athol, says: When travelling one of my feet got sore and broke out. I could not cure it, and had to return home. It became better and afterwards much worse. I finally pur- chased a bottle of the Remedy and a box of Pills, and before they were half gone I commenced to - improve, and before they were finished my foot was completely cured. It is now 17 months since, but have had no further attack." Price of the Remedy in pint bottles, $1.
