Ile showed the publishers that by this system of contracting they were giving lower rates than they gave their own home customers or others equally as prompt and good customers; that they were selling one portion of their paper to be used to compete with and underbid the other columns; that the owner of the space'thus sold couldcome right in and beat the pub lisher's prices and take his business away front him ; that • f the publishers, fully understanding this, still wished to continue so irregular and dubosiness-like a system he (Pettingill k Co.) ithould of course cease trying to get ad vertising for the papers at their regular rates and go into the other system of contracting—which he could stand If the printers could."

On Turkey river lived Amass Barker, a worthy itinerant minister of the Methodist church. Besides being s fisher of men, he was a fisher of fish, and also delighted in the pleas ures of the chase. To him one fine Saturday night came another son of Nimrod—Jack Waters. Jack woke up the minister by calling to him from the outside. The parson put his head out of the door and recognized his friend at once. "Mr. Barker," says Jack, "fine night for 'coon hunting. Qin you come out and have a shot 2" A muffled protest in a fethinine voice waa faintly heard inside the house ; but the good minister was too ardent a hunter to yield even to petticoat influence. A moment later he ap peared at the door in hunting trim, and the two men started off, although the protest was repeated more strenously, accompanied by the apparition at a window of a head incased with a ruffied e night Lap. Spite of the fine night, however, and the skill of the two hunters, luck was against them ; and several hours had passed before they met with anything worth taking home. At last the parson descried a fine coon in a tree. Being a sprightly parson, and agile, he climbed up after the animal, following it to quite a height. At last, getting a good' chance, he levelled his gun. "Why don't you fire ?" hoarsely whispered Jack, after waiting several minutes, daring which the parson remained suddenly transfix ed, neglecting to pull the trigger. "I say, Mr. Waters," he replied, "what time is it ? Remember this is Saturday night." "No it isn't," says Jack, looking at his watch, 'it's Sunday morning. Just five min utes past twelve. Now, fire quick, you won't have such a chance again." "No, no," replies the minister, "it won't do, Mr. Waters. Too late now ; we must come another time." "But just give the coon a crack," urged Jack. "Can't do it," said, the minister, slowly de scending. "Recollect what the command ment says : Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy—'coon or no 'coon," So the virtuous Sabbstariaus weatjkome A CHRISTIAN POIJOKMAN.—The following incident occurred some years since. We know the policeman well, and he is still en gaged in his Christian works of mercy while faithfully discharging his duties as a public officer. On the side-walk of a broad avenue, where thousands rush unheeding and unheeded, a policeman stood musing with himself what he should do to relieve several cases of severe suffering very recently witnessed in the dis charge of his official duty. Just then a car riage rolled along, whose owner and occu pants were utter strangers. Moved by some unseen influence, he stopped the carriage, and inquired of the lady within if she would like to relieve the distress of those known to be worthy. 'She replied in the affirmative, and he gave her the address of three parties great ly needing immediate aid, and asked her to drive to their door and judge for herself.-- He directed the driver to pass on, and return ed to his duties with a burden rolled off.— When he again called upon the widow and fatherless,' in whose behalf he had thus ap pealed to a strahger, he learned that the lady had complied with his , request, visited and promptly relieved theirnecessities, an act for which their hearts were overflowing with gratitude. The good man thought that an angel guide had sent him to that carriage, and so he had good reason to think long after wards. That little act—unpremeditated and seemingly unreasonable—touched a spring that has since proved as s fountain in a desert, and has been to the good man a 'pleasant comment upon the words, "Make you His service your delight He'll make your wants His care." Armen Bsiarrnnn..—At a festival party of old and young, the question was asked, Which season of life is most happy? After , being freely discruned by the guests, it was referred for answer to the host, upon whoni Was the burden of four-seare years.

And when the summer comes, and covers the tree with its heavy .foliage, and singing birds are all among the branches, I think, How beatttital Is summer!

HERBERT NEWBURY WHOLE NO. 3476 TUE MUNN:OLT ESTIMATION p They tell a story ofhow the Rev. Dr. Beth une, now dead—a wit, a scholar and an elo quent divine—was once put in a queer posi tion by an enthusiastic friend. The Doctor at the time was settled over a congregation in Brooklyn, and was very popular. A Connec ticut congregation gave a call, and "called" a thousand dollars per annum better than the Brooklyn people. But he had formed a strong attachment to his puishoners, and thinking his sphere of service could not be changed to advantage, he was not tempted by an increase of salary. So he remained, to the great de light of his people. All the Doctor's parishoners were not saints. There were a few sinners among them—else, why preach the gospel ? And among the last was a wealthy and jovial pew holder, fond of his cups, and apt at times to get more than he could conveniently carry.— Neither was he particular as to what time of day he got drunk. He suited his inclination and had no method In his cups. Bilkins—well, that was not his name, but it will do—Bilkins heard of the Doctor's refu sal,and he wasdelighted. In the very heighth Olds pleasure he crossed Fulton Ferry,carry ing about a quart of brandy. The brandy carrier happened to catch sight of the umbrella carrier, and at once staggered toward him, exclaiming in his loudest tones : "How do yon do, Dr. Bethune._ Let me take your—laic—hand, my dear sir-r-r. I am proud to testify-y -y my respects for you, sir." "Speak a little lower if you please, Mr. Bil kins," murmured Dr. Bethune. "Yes-s-s-s, sir; you have stood by your pulpit like a man. Them ens-G.-Bed nutmeg grinding, ham-m carving Yankees wanted to take you away from us—offered you a thous and dollars a year more—did they ?" By this time the attention of the crowd was fixed on the couple, Dr. Bethune's face was always florid, but it was now on fire. His interlocutor continued : "Our people have got to make up that thousand dollars—got to I If they don't, I'll do it myself." "But, my dear sir," remonstrated the doc tor, sotto voce, "speak a little lower, you are drawing"— "Yes-s-s-s !" interrupted the other, "I know whist you said. You spurned the offer. Yon s-s-s-said you wouldn't go—not an inch. You told them as a good and pious clergyman ought to, that you'd s-e-s-see'em damned first." Purtnurv.—How heedless and unconcerned is mortal man as to how It will go with him in the future. How seldom does he leave his thoughts rest upon his latter end—the time when death shall end his existence here— when all that he so highly prized upon earth will have to be parted with. He knows that many whom he bad loved have passed away . from time to eternity; tior would he for one moment doubt the fact, that so it will go with him sooner or later—that his body will also return to the earth from whence it came, and that death is no respecter of persons, but that it takes aefay the young amidst all their hopes and prospects, as well as the old whose grey hairs and feeble step denote that their earthly allotment is almost ended. Yet he goes on :with bright and glorious hope for the future —of gaining great riches—of receiving great worldly honors and high and exalted positions in life, and many other things, not remember ing that future time is in the bands of a wise Creator, who for some good purpose has not permitted us to see into it. Perhaps if we knew what was to befall us in the future— what disappointments and sorrows we would have topass through, it would so weigh us down and discourage us as to entirely unfit us for the performance of the necessary duties of life, and eventually sink us down to the grave. Therefore Nve should ever remember the lines of the Christian poet, in which he says; "To-morrow !—mortal, boast not thou Of time and tide that are not now But think in one revolving day How earthly things may pass away !" And we ought also ever look unto Him who has all time in His mighty hand, and who only knows what will be best for us at present, and what will be our fate in the dark and mysterious futurity. G. S. SATURDAY Mawr.—Somebody gets off the following beautiful paragraph on the closing night of the week. There is a volume of truth and sense in it. Saturday night makes people human ; sets their hearts to beating softly - , as they used to do before the world turped them into war drums, and jarred them to pieces with tattoos. The ledger closes with a crash ; the iron-door ed vaulbt come to with a bang ; up go the shutters with a will; click goes the key in the lock. It is Saturday night, and business breathes free again. Homeward, ho ! The door that has been ajar all week gently closes behind him ; the world is all shut out. Shut out ? Shut in, the rather. Here are his treas ures, after all, and not in the vault, and not in the book—save the record in the old family Bible—and not in the bank. May be you're 'a bachelor, frosty and forty. Then, poor fellow, Saturday night is nothing 'to you, juntas you are nothing to anybody.— Get a wife, blue eyed or black eyed,but above all true eyed ; get a little home, no matter how little, and a little 'sofa, just to hold two or two and a half, and then get the two, or two and a half in it, of a Saturday night, and then raid this paragraph by the light of your own wlfe's eyes, and thank God and take courage. One day after the late horrible catastrophe on the Dijon Railway, an old man who hatl escaped by a miracle from the crushed cars, presented himself at the place of the disaster. A. workman t 'Arho was collecting the debris and clearing the track,inquired what he want ed. `Monsieur, I am one of the victims." The workman looked up, and seeing a man without any injery, inquired, "Whom have you lost, then—your wife, your child, any . friends" "No, liOsideur, I have lost my umbrella." • The workman searched among the broken cars, and by a singular chance found the um hyena. • "Thers" said he, giving .it to the peasant, "you are lucky to get out of the scrape In this wity," - • "Yon call that lucky ?" returned the man ; "look here--they have broken two whale bones."

' One day they got into a friendly dispnte with each other in the presence of a Fiche of high . aulk sato their respective dexterity in the ttee of • the sword, each claiming superien skill. The Pic* after hearing their discandao, gravely informed them that he wished to put their pretentlons to the test, and that as there were three criminals to be headed oa the following morning, in pursuance of a sentence of the court, he would request that each of the oM cers should demonstrate what he could do with his sword by beheading one of the condemned. Accordingly on the morrow at an early hour they repaired to the place of execution, where they found the Pacha and his staff waiting for them. The first criminal was brought for ward with his arms pinioned and made to kneel. The Englighmlin was notified it was his, time to display his skill. He advanced, drew his sabre, and with an exhibition of great strength, cut off the herid of the victim. The Pacha, duly - commending the English man's feat, ordered the second criminal to be brought forward in the same manner, and inftirmed the - Frenchman. thrit there was his man. The Frenchman first went up to the knetling cuipiit and tied a piece of bine rib bon around his neck, then stepping back and bowing gracefully to the Pacha and his suit, he drew his sword, and after sundry elegant flourishes in the air, executed 'a most beauti ful but, 'severing the head from the body of the victim and splitting the ribbon precisely in the middle.' The delighted Pacha, atter complimenting the superior grace and dexter ity of the Frenchman, ordered the third crim inal, to be brought out, and ordered the American to proceed. The American, - after requesting that the culprit might be allowed to stand on his feet,' stepped forward, and making a single quick but apparently careless cut, returned his sabre to the scabbard, and turning about resumed his place, leaving his victim apparently- unharmed. Observing, however, that his competitors and even the dignified Moslems were laughing at his suppo sed failure he remarked in a quiet tone to the culprit. "Spit, if-you please." And when the criminal leaned, forward to complytwith this request, to the surprise of the spectators, his bead tumbled off. Cduacu EruturrrE—ls MEMORIAL—It flied to pizzie us, before we understood the origin of the custom, to account for the peculiarly American idea of church etiquette which com pels a gentleman to step into the aisle, allow a lady to pals in before him, and re-seat him self in the most comfortable place In the pew. The European certainly must be at a loss to account for the custom on the'principle that the laws of etiquette are founded on- the gen eml rule of making others as comfortable and happy as possible. But we cannot join with the many who wish this custom, troubfesonie though it may sometimes be, abolished. It is a relic of the olden time in America when men went'to church with their muskets, and had their children and wives take the Inside of the pew, so that they might rush foto the aisle at the first signal from the watchman that hostile Indians were r ifear. The custom comes to us with the sacked memories of the trials and courage and hardships of our forefathers. It tells of hard-earned -homesteads in the Wes tern wilderness ; of men and women who laid the foundations of a great nation among scenes which called for nerve, and energy, and-brave ry. Surely the preservation of this custom as a token of respect to their memory, is not too great as burden for sirfashionable sons and daughters of to-disT, who owe them so much of their present prosperity and wealth. The people of Batitiland undergo every form of in convenience !lather than give up time-honored customs, and we laugh at them for it. 'We care too little for these things. - The American motto is "Let the dead past bury the dead." A better motto is the golden rule, "Do unto others as yOu *mild that others do unto you ;" bow will it be when we are dead ?—New York Gazette. LOST TREASIMEB.-At a large hotel in an Atlantic city, one day, a lively conversation arose over the fish at dinner, and several of the guests related some extraordinary stories a bout finding pearls and other valuables in the entrails of fish, when an old - man, who had been quietly listening to what was passing, broke forth with the following: "When I was a young man I was employed in a large im porting house in this city, and, as usual with most persons of my age then, I fell in love with a certain young lady, and in due course of time wits engaged. About two months be fore our marriage was to take place, I was suddenly sent to Europe on very important business, occasioned by the death of one of the firm in Europe. I took a hasty and af fectionate leave of my intended, with the pro mise to hear from each other often.
