ATTEMPT ON A KING'S LIFE.
The news that an attempt lias been
made to destroy the principal King of Si
am, has reached ua bv way of Calcutta.
The facts will be learned from the follow
ing narrative, forwarded from Rangoon to
a Calcutta cotempomry :—" The King of
Siam was invited, about two months ago,
to an entertainment by one of his richest
subjects, on a very grand scale. The
King at once accepted, though it was not
in accordance with national custom for his
majesty of Bankok to accept hospitality ;
at the hands of any subject; yet the grand
scale of the preparations induced him to
commit, on this occasion, a breacit of roy
al etiquette. The king's brother however
had his suspicions about this grand enter
tainment, and advised the king not to go,
feeling certain that it was intended to do ■
eomc grievous bodily harm to him. The
king, having accepted, did not like to be
trav symptoms of distrust, perhaps with
out cause; so he resolved on an expedient
which was to send, dressed in his usual
royal attire, which may be presumed as
prescribed for such an occasion, would be
so bulky and extensive as to greatly con-'
ceal the person, a courier who very* much
resembled the King in height, rigure, and
face. The hour tixed for the King to go
to the assembly was about midnight; the
pseudo king accordingly, followed by the
regal retainers and men of the court, ar- (
rived at that hour, and was at once con- .
ducted to a throne prepared for his majes
ty. No sooner had he seated himself than |
the whole 3tTair blew up, destroying this
man who had been uufortunate enough to
be like the ktng, and seven other persons
who stood near the throne. Thus was
the King of Slant's life saved by the aga
ei'.y of his brother; and a valuable life is
his, for he is a very enlightened man for
an Asiatic, and cart write a letter himself
in English. Whether this narrative, which
is believed to be strictly true, lias appeared
in the Calcutta or other Indian papers, the
writer of these Fines knoweth not."
r§""nie words, - out of," are the worst
of the language; when one is out of pa-'
tience and out of money ; when his wife
says site is out of sugar one day. out of
coffee the next, out of flour the next, and
finally out ot sp.rits. i'he words are verv
gvJ when or.e is out of debt, out of trouble
3nd out ol jail. If a man has a smoky
house in J a scoiding wife, out of doors is
no bad ace.
LP* A EKIeJ politician was recently (
caught by z firiend in the act of perusin?
the Scripture*:. Upon asking him what j
particular ]orj;n cf the good book he had
selected for examination, he replied: "I
am reading the etorv about the loaves and
fishes.''

ral and Christian character in the school.
