    The Broken Saw.
A boy went to live with a man who was
accounted a hard master. He never kepi his
boys; they ran away, or gave notice they
meant to quit, so ho was half his time with
out or in search of a boy. The work was
not very hard —opening and sweeping out
the shop, chopping wood, going errands, and
helping nrdund. .At last Sam Fisher went In
live with him. “Sana’s a good boy,” said
his mother.
“I should like to see a boy now-a-days
that has a spark of goodness in him,” growl
ed the new master.
It is always bad to begin with a man who
has no confidence in you; because, do your
-best you are likely to have little credit for
However, Sam thought he would try ; the
wages were good, and his mother wanted him
to go. . Sam had been there but three days,
■when in sawing a cross-grained piece of
wopd he broke the saw. He was a little
frightened, knew that he was careful, and he
knew lie was a pretty gnod sawyer too, for
a boy of his age; nevertheless, the saw
broke in his hands.
“And Mr. Jones will thrash you for it,”
said another boy who was in the wood.house
with him.
“Why of course 1 didn’t mean to, and ac.
cidenls will happen to the beat of fu.'ks,” said
Sam looking with a very sorry air on the
brpken saw.
“Mr. -Jones neter makes allowances,” said
the olher boy ; I never saw anything like
him. That Bill might have stayed only he
jumped into a hen’s nest and broke her eggs.
He darenl tell of it; but Mr. Jones kept
suspecting, and suspecting, and suspecting,
and laid everything out of the way to Bill,
whether Bill was to blame or no, till Bill
couldn’t stand it, and wouldn't.
“Did he tell Mr. Jones about the eggs?”
asked Sam.
“No,” said the boy ; “he was ‘frnid to—
Mr.. Jones’ got sach an awful temper.
“I think he’d belter own square up,” said
Sam.
“I reckon you’ll find it better to preach
than to praclice,” said the boy.- “I’d run
away before I’d tell him;” and he soon tur
ned on his heel and left poor Sain alone with
hi? broken saw.
It was afier supper, and he was not likely
to see Mr. Jones that nighl. The shop shut,
and his master had gone to some town mee
ting. The next morning the would gel up
early, go into the wood-hou-e, and then see
what was done, for Sam would never hide
the saw.
The poor boy did not feel very comforta
ble or happy. He shut up the wood-house,
walked out in the garden, and then went up
to his little chamber under the eaves fie
wished he could tell Mrs. Junes, but she
wasn’t sociable, and he bad ruber not. , “O,
my God,” said Sam, falling on his hues',
“help me to do the thing thai is right.” He
had always said his prayers but he had not
put his whole heart into his prayers as he
did tint night ; that night he prayed.
1 did not know what lime it was, but when
Mr. Jones came inio 'he house the boy lizard
him. He got up, ciept down sours, and nv
Mr. Jones in the kitchen. “Sir,” said Sam,
“1 broke your saw and I though’ I’d come
and tefiyou ’fore you saw it in the morning.”
‘•Wha’ did you get vp up to tell me for
asked Mr. Jones ; I should think morning
would be lime enough to tell me of your
carelessness.” -
“Because,” said Sam, “I was afraid if 1
put it off [ might be templed to he about it.
I’m very sorry I broke it, but I tried to be
c ireful.’’
\ Mr. Jones looked at the bov from bead to
font, then sirpto.hmg nu' his hand, “Tlvtp.
Sam,’ - he said heartily “give me your hind.
SlitVke hands. I’ll trust you, S tm. That's
rii;ht\ That’s right! Go to lied. boy.
Nevet\fear. I'm "lad the saw broke ; it
shows the mettle in you. Go to bed.”
Mr. was fairly won. Never were
belter friends after that than Sam and h».
Sam thinks justice has not been done 10 Mr.
Jones. If the.bnys had treated him honestly
and “above board,’’ he would have been a
good man lo live with. It was Ilnur conduct
which soured and made him suspicious, i 1

Jackson’s Duel with Dickinson.
To the Editor of ike JS. T. ISeirsi Sarne
lime ago I saw in your paper a statement
about the duel between Gen. Jackson and
Dickinson, fought boforelhe year 1800, wind)
account was erroneous in several particular*.
Desirous of eorrecling Ihese errors, I offered
to furnish you an account of the duel, told
me bv Gen. Jackson’s biographer and inn
mate friend, John H. Eaton. He and 1 were
once traveling together, and I enquired how
be obtained si|ch accurate information about
Gen. Jackson, for that many circumstances
contained in his book I knew myself to be
true. He said he frequently visited General
Jackson, and they used lo sit up late talking
over events, and on bis return lo his bed
room he committed lo paper what the Gpne
ral said concerning himself.
The following is Gen. Jackson’s account
of the duel, to'd Gen. who related the
same to me:
Jackson settled at Nashville between the
years 1790 and 1600, and began the practice
of law. Dickinson was already there, fol-,
lowing the same profession. He was a great
duelist, having killed several in duels, and al
most certain to kill at the fire. Mis mode of
firing was uncommon. Instead of raising
his pistol from his side 10 fire at Ihe word, he
would bring it down until he got it at the
proper level, and then fire. All of the mer
chants in Nashville hadUickinson retained in
their behalf, and he being the only lawyer
there until Jackson came, no redress could
be obtained by the opposhe side. Gen. Jack
son refused to be retained by these merchants
to the exclusion of all other parties. The
consequence was ihat he issued sixty writs
to the first term of the court at Nashville.
He issued writs against the merchants',
who until then had gone scot free. This it
ritated them, and they being desirous of get
ting Gen. Jackson out of the way, incited
Dickinson to provoke ti duel. He began by
acting on trials offensively to the General.
He remonstrated with Dickinson, and plain
ly told him he would not stand spch disre
spectful treatment.
Dickinson persisted, and Gen. Jackson
challenged him. The lime and place for the
combat were fixed upon, and the news.spreud
for miles around. There were at leas! two
thousand persons on the ground, and bels
were mode ns if it were a horse race.
Dickinson himselt bet that he would kill
Jackson at the first fire. Dickinson fired
first, and his ball hit Jackson on his right pap
and peeled his breast. Ho had a callous
lump there until the day of his dealh. As
soon as the smoke of the jpistol blow away
he saw Gen. Jackson still standing, and he
exclaimed—“Havn’t I killed the damned ras
cal yeti” Gen. Jackson told Gen. Eaton
lhal until then he meant to give him bis life,
but on hearing these words, he raised his pis
tol, fired, and killed Dickinson instantly.
What Great Heart Did. — l saw Great
Heart one day in a railway train. He was
well dressed, and appeared to be reading,
through his spectacles, the morning paper.—
A poor woman sal opposite with six little
children, the eldest scarcely a dozen-years
old. The husband was a stupid, hard-heart
ed wretch, and administered blows unsparing
ly to a wearied tilde thing who showed his
discomfort by crying and fretting as the hot
dust swept over his face. The mother’s
countenance wore a look of patient despair
and continual anxiety, as the li'tle restless
company sat crowded together in the loaded
car. Not one of them looked shabby or un
lidv, though very plainly dressed. When
the engine slopped for foel the poor woman
look out from a basket some bread, and
cheese, which she. distrtbutedsparingly among
the little group. Great Heart had watched
their movements all the morning, and as a
boy approached the carriage with a basket
full of berries, he bought up boxes enough to
go around, and gave them to ihe hungry chil
dren, whose eyes glistened as they saw such
a rare dessert spread before Ihem. One lit
tle girl perhaps five years old, was nearly
sick, and tried to rest in her mother’s lap;
but the tired infant disputed vigorously her
right, and she was obliged to yield the claim.
Great Heart had been gravely considering
the company, and he did not hesitate to lake
the poor child tenderly in his arms, lay her
head in his lap, and then fan her with his
paper until she sank into a peaceful slumber.
When we slopped for our dinner we saw Ihem
all seated by a bountiful table, loaded with
luxuries to which they seemed total strangers,
yet which they knew very well how to ap
preciate. We knew it was Great Heart's,
and we menially blessed Ihe kind, generous
nature that had ihus shed sunshine on the
hard pathway of the humble snangers.—
Christian reader, in caring for Ihe souls of
the poor, do not forget lh Jl ir bodies.

has recently been invented, which promises to su

tensively for washing clothes, and possesses* ihe re
markable property of extracting dirt without boiling
the clothes and without the use of the rubbing board.
The process of washing requires less than half the

Patent Soap. This article Is peculiarly excellent,
and superior to any thing else called Soap; because
while It saves lime and labor, it never rots or in
