There lived in the city of P—, a gen.

by industry *id economy, had amassed a
large competence, sustaining in all the
work of life a character' above suspicion.
vial the head of A fine family,, and
npted fur his eccentricities and his peculiar
style of dress. He was stoop-shouldered,
limped'a little, and for ten years previous

with age.

a cloudy, dismalday hrlifirch, 18—, when
an old man entered one Of the banki of en

payment. The cashier took it and pithi
over to tho man $lO,OOO, and he descended
the steps into the street.
In less thin five minutes after he bed
left, the cheek was discovered to be s for

Modiately notified by the cashier who
were then a description and, presenting
White pe cashier, asked if that was the
man.
"That is the man; I cannot be mis
taken," he replied. Ele eyed him a little
closer (being near sighted) and throwing
up his hand, he exclaimed,'"Mr. Rawlins,
(the gentleman alluded to in the opening
of the earrative,) can it be possible that
you have committed this forgery ?"
The old man protested his innocence,
but to no avail; for he was led away to
prison, to await the sitting of the court.

obetinsbely retbsed to accept a release, and
lay in jail three =oaths. ' •

TAM Aj CORN MIL,
A man had been In the habit of steal
ing coin from his neighbor, who was a
Quaker. Every night he would go softly
to his crib and fill his bag with the eats
which the good old Quaker's toil had
placed there. Every morning the old
gentleman observed a diminution of his
corn pile. This way was annoying, and
must be stopped—but howl—Many a one
would have said, 'Take a gun, conceal
yourself, wait till he comes, and fire."
Others would have said, "Catch the vii
ban, and have him sent to jail."
But the Quaker Was not prepared to 'en
ter into any such severe measures. He
iranterl to punish the offender, and at the
same time bring aboht his reformation if
possible. Bo he fixed a sort of trap close
to the hole through which the man would
thrust his arm in getting the corn.
The wicked neighbor proceeded on his
unholy errand at the hour of mid-night,
with bag in hand. Unsuspectingly
thrust his hand into the crib to seize an
ear, when, 10l he found- Idinself unable
to withdraw it! -In vain he tugged, and
pulled, and sweated, and alternately cried
and cursed. His handwita'nutt, and every
effort to release it cooly mute it more se

breast measurably subsided. He gave
over his useless straggles, and began to
look around him. All was silent and
repose. Good men were sleeping coni-
Amiably in their beds, while be was com
pelled to keep a dreary, disgraceful watch
through the remainder of that long and
tedious night, his hand in constant pain
from the pressure of the clamp which held
it. His' tired limbs, compelled to sustain
his weary body, would fain have sunk be
neath him, and his heavy eyes would have
closed in slumber, but no, there was no
rest for him. There ho must stated and
watch the progress of the night and at
once desintand dread the return of morn_
ins. Morning came at asst, and the Quak
er looked out of tie wiestra, and he found
that he had now "caught his man."
What was to be clone? Some would

the Quaker.. Stich a muse would have

to release him. "I'm sorry that thee has

The man looked most Wen, and, beg

retreat. "Stsy," said his persecutor—for
he was now becoming_ such to the offen

YOUNG AIIVIZICA. AT THE WIISEL.—A
wall-known clergyman was crossing Lake
Erie, some yews ago, upon one of the lake
ateasners, and, seeing a small lad at the
wheel steering the vessel, he accosted him
as Mows:
"My son, you appear to be a small boy
to steer so large *boat."
"Ye., sir," was the reply;
see I eau do it, thougb."
"Do you think you understand your

"Yes, sir; I think I do."
"Caa yen box the compass?"
"Yes, sir."
"Let sae bear yett'hox ft."
The boy again did as requested, when
the minister said:
"Well, really, you can do it!

"Yes, sir."
"Let the hoar you."
The boy again did as requested, when
the minister remarked:
"I declare, my soul You do seem Loam

The boy then took his turn at question
asking, beginning

"Do you underat.ind your business?

The clergyman did so, repeating the
words in a very ferient manner, as though
trying to make an impression on the lad.

conclusion, "you do know it, don't you?
Now say It backward."

The notion pleased him immensely.--
Both descended the ladder, and the keeper

to do such an act; because it was a good
chair—one of those good old-fashioned
ivirdsor chairs, which was an heirloom in
his family; and he knew he never could
replace it —never; and he wept afresh.
The minister excused Mop:4 and went

ern Pacific Bonds Are far more likely to
go above par in price than to fall below.
