Whit edr Opponent* lay.
Our readers, wh o do not like a Locofbco paper,
-®*7 bsve a natural cariosity to know what the
oppoaiuon papers say of the siren 57 conduct’of
toany Whigs, at the late election. We will cry
.ud grtlify theta, and at tho same time minister
to their amusement., We will begin with the Post,
tho legitimate organ of Locofocism in this county.

“One question, has been decided. We refer to
too sbriff. The people hare tpoien against the

A&reoijr* the other oppo&tion print aaya
•Tbcw aw other cause#, however, by mean* of
which the greatgaia of the democratic party may
besaiufactorily explained. Tne whig* have befe.
toere mauua,ned enormous • majorities in this 1
county; not because of the attachment of the peo. j

tne faUacy that the whigs nj«ul be regarded as the .
exlf friends of protection. We have dcmocstre- 1
ted the.lmpropriety or making the uriff a party
question.« We have instated upon the duty of
Doth parties going bifare the country upon their
respective principles alone.” '*
That is, the people of (his county were not
Wfcigvbut only-Tanjf men,and es the Mercury
has asserted that the Whig party is nor the only
Tariff party, and that Democrats are as safe on
toatquestions*the Whigs,the LocofocoVotc has
been Increased thereby, and the preatuit tiling off
in thd Whig vote is rather an evidence of-attach*
Umnt to the Tariff than otherwise.' Thi s. from,
the Uie election, the sapient editors ofiht opposi
tion dresses, draw exactly opposite com lusions.
That neither are worth a straw, every >easible
politician will eee v j
The self gratulation of the editor of the N ercury,
is quite amusing. Our neighbor mutt irel ex*
ooediggly comfortable' in the contempiati: n of hit
great successes in "defeating" the design 1 of the
Whigs; and those Whigs who have been striving
to build up the Mercury to break down t ;e Post,
must feel comfortable 100. We wish then all joy
of their successes.
• But we must continue’ cur quotations. The
Post further says:-*
“We take)! that the people have olso decided
that there Isjdo honesty iu tho ami siuvVry pre*
tensions of tho Taylor men. And further, has not
the conduct of.tho present Cnief Magistrate of
Pennayhranta been indirec-ly rebuked? Ha has
wantonly disgraced his office by hrs lack of d'g
nity on several public occa •ions, and tii>! eves of I
toe people have been upon Lira."
The Mercury editor does not differ quito so
widely from his step brother Of tho Postl in this, as
In toe Tariffmalter. Their Locoioco icitincte lead
them together on every other question. ) The Mer
enryaay*:—
"Has the administration forfeited the confidence
even of Its supporters? We art in,luted to Mine
jo— and this has been one of the causes why many
members of (be whig party have taken littlo or no
Interest in the late contest,'’ -
There, ye lazy, good for nothing Whigs, wbo
Jfere so sore all woold go ou just as well without
your vote, do.you *eo the consequences of your
■conduct! While you are'ontheßtooiofrepent
axtee, and jiroteaUng; that you are exceedingly
lorry, that yaujhs'd no idea-of each a result, and
that you will never Tie napping again, the
Mercury is heralding it all obrbad that your works
•how that you have lost confidence in ‘‘Old Znc±.’> :
and his cabinet, and that that i» the rea«oa you
remained at home, Nour, you need not fume and
(ret, and say that it is all a Lacafoco slender, ttat
you meant no such thing, and that vour confidence
’ la unshaken jn the glotlcos old soldier, and Ihe
excellent Whig Cabinet, because your conduct has
‘ given occasion to such.remarks, and iberelsno
Other way to mend the matter than to do your
doty ho all occasions iu future. But, or the same
•object, the Mercury further say?:—
“Looking’ however,' at the general result, seeing
that in a locality where General Tuylor hod a ma
jority of the Whigs have now obtained only
• majority varying from', fcOO'lo’lOOO, we regard
too result of this election as .conveying n severe
condemnation of tho policy of the AdmioisUaiioo,
end as an approval 4y tho people of this county of
the course which the Mercury has pursued.*
' What vast and important results tbc Whigs bad
in view in neglecting to vote in tho late election!
According to tbc saga conclusions or qur self*
important neighbor, they were two fold:- -first, to
administer n a sevtre condemnation of the p ilicy” of■
the Whig Administration nod, second, to give
tomr "approval of tks course the Mercury hes K pur~
. Med!* . The latter,' we presume, in the opinion of 1
our neighbor, is the more important of 'the two;
and had the most refinance! How comfortable
and consolatory to Whig delinquents. l ! 1
AH this; however, is mere talk of the weakest,
and, on the part of the Mercury: of the vainest
kind. About , fire thousand voters did not torn
: out. Of these less than a thousand are Locofocos.
At least four thousand Whigs neglected to come
to the polls. That 'there persons meant thereby
to oppose Protection, as the Post says, oi favor it
•a a uo party question, as the Mercury ns itm; or
that they meant to show their want of co ifidence
in a President and administration which t >ey have
just pot in power, and have scarcely tried, as both
•ay; or that they meant thereby to show their ap
proval of the course of the Mcrcury f in its work of

: why the Whig vote was not oat at.the list elec
* tbs. besides, there were various local reasons
:• in this connty, which added their effects jo those
of n more general character. -1
We have not the least doabt that the WiAg party
to as strong in this county now, as it was,
and jast as strongly attached to our principles.
They are jast as much opposed to the' British
Tariff of *4 fl, and as anxious for its repeal as ever.
They have jast at little confidence that Locos'
fooo party will ever do any thing for the relief of
cor industrial, interests, as, they had when they
Toted for Johnston and Gen.TayJar. They
know the nostrums of the Mercary cannot-care
their ills, and they no more intended to express
their "approval of it* coarse” than they did of the
tnuhorfal|ity.o]r,{bo doctrines of Joe Smith.
We hope, however, that the result of the late

biapatienta told me that be was for aomo ume un
der Unde Josh's core with an attack of biliona fe
ver which entirely prostrated hip, and left him
ü be supposed, by a small chance lor life. One
morning Uncle Josh came into Jils room, and stood
by his aide watehing his : disturbed sleep; Soon
as be^waked Unde Josh asked him how bo felt
"I’m going to'die, doctor—to die.”
'"Who said any thing about dying? Answermy
question, will you? how are you?"
"Very ill; verv 111, indeed!"
“Foh! poh! You make as much furs about
being ilick, as if nobody had over been sick be
fore.” (
‘‘Pm i very df-rjust holding on by a single
strand!”
“A-strand of what?"
U A strand ot thread—a hair!’ 1
Get out, win vou! Yon know Nothing.about

Hia patient told me that his confidence in the
judgment 6f Dr. Gray raised his spirits imtsedi
nuly, while a sudden fit of laughter at the idea of
a three inch cable, contributed to hia speedy re
covery. ,
‘Doctor! docter?>exclaimed a yonug lady to him
one day as he waa passing. *Oh, my tooth* my

‘Whtt’g the matter with your toothr

‘Just the way with these women! Chock full

own way. and always get it. Let’s aCe your
tooth.’ t
Heaawthc tooth, and laoced the gum very
(deep. But what'was be to take a out with ? Very
1 unlikely waa it htat Uncle Josh should be puzzled
upon this bead long. He suddenly recollected
that be had he came in, a mallet and a
melet ehissL were his tools. lam rela
ting the aimplolrnth. He leaned her head back,
and placing the edge of the chisel against the ca
nons part of the tooth, with one stroke of the ma!»
let drove the tooth ioto her lap.
‘That’s well done,’ bo exclaimed. ‘Nothing
like a mallet and chisel to draw teeth with !* '
One of hia beat friends lost hia wife* When
Aunt Betty told him that Mrs. Jones was dead, he
started off at once to mingle bis tears with those
of her bereaved partner; and. as he said, “to of
fer n word of consolation.” Hefound the hasband
very much distressed. They shook hands,' and
both sat down in silent grid
“Mrs. Jones ia gone, I’m told,” said Uncle Josh,
after the first bunt of grief was exhausted.
''She’s gone' and left me behind.”
“Solace. Why didn’t you go with her 1 She's
up io heaven—a great deal bettor off. You’ll meet
her up there, won't you? Da, now.”-
“I’ll try.. I’ll endeavor to live as she taught ms
to live,”
“That’s right. Go to the Lord, and tell him all
aboutit It’ll do you'good. But, mao, don’t take
on this wayl Don’t now—you'll break ray heart!”
and the big tenn rolled down bis furrowed checks
as though his heart would break.
“I can't help it, doctor. It’s a great relief to
cry.”
“So it la! so it is! I know that. Cry away as
hard you please—l won’t stop you. Jesus wept.
He did so. But then,” said Unde Josh—and his
countenance, as he brushed away his tears assum
ed a look of deep and solemn thoughtfulness, as
though he bad upon his mind a sentiment of weigh
tv import— u bta then, after all, u's a very eovtvum
thing fir men to lost thetr trews."
He stepped in one. day to see a mother whose
little one had just died. He was much attached
to'the family, and usually called the infant his “lit
tle pus*."
“We!k Annie, little puts has gone to heaven,
hey! I'm glad of it!” _
*Ob, doctor! doctor’ don’t say so!"
“I will say so! I wijl! I’m glad of it!"
The poor mother's heart was almost bursting.—
She wept bitterly, and Uncle Josh wept with her.
He was grieved beyond mearure to hear her cry
ao, and he consoled h£r in this wise.
"You women ore the queerest, beings in the
world. All men in creation can’t make .me cry;
and woman! you;—yon —make rnyheartbreak.—
Now, jnat lonk here” —and ho brushed uway hi*
tears—“suppore vour littio lamb out yonder was
drawing, .wouldaH you take it out if you could,
and nurse it, and put it in the clover patch'"
“Oh, yes; to bo sure I would.”
“So would I. And you wouldn’t pnt it back
in the water again?”
"No, no; never!” ~
“Welt, then. I toll you wbaJi-iar Ikpow all
about it, j our baby teas most drovned • hen, and the
Lord has tahzn it trj* to Heaven?'
One autumn there hapjwned to be a plentiful
supply of-applet in Uncle Josh's orchard.. He
was, of course, delighted with the prospect; and it
was a pleasant employment for him to walk round
his orchardjwo'or three'times a day-looking up
on his apples—on one of which peregrinations he
was overheard talking to himself. “Aim they fine?
Aint they beantie* ? Who say* tbev nint ’ They
are, I eav 1 , they are !’’ The apple* wete oil gath
ered in doe sonaon. and IS prime order, and were
snugly put away for the winter. Uncle Josh,
grateful for all hia mercies, was not unmindful of
hia apples. One evening he remembered his op*
pies atfamOy worship, bat was somev/bat at a loss
to know hpw to bringlhem into his prayer. Bat it
wts cot often that be was in a quandary long; so
he proceeded to say “how thankful they all were
that the Lord had given them so rnanv apples that
season—”j
He paused a,moment, for a sudden thought oc
curred to him. It was bat for a raomeot, however,
and he added—
“But last season we hadn't any aIaJL- Wouldn't
it bo beUtr kertafter to divide equally, and 'give tu
half rat year and half another *"
Now, uncle Josh said thin id tbs sincerity and
simplicity of his ■ heart. He thoaghl so, and
was not conscious-of any wrong in thinking ii;
and though'’it sounds strangely in oar ears, to
those who knew him it seemed nothing extra*
ordinary. .' ! '
T had on onq or'casion preached a sermon, and,
the same day,.called on • Uncle Josh. My text
bad been the words, “He will not break the bruis
ed reed, he[ will not quench the smoking flax,-”
and the subject of the discurse was “the gentleness
of Jesus.” 1 Uncle Josh was much affected. 1
reached theparlor door, and with my hand upon
.lha knob, was arrested by the voice of earnest
prayer. Tbere'waa nn mistaking the supplicant.
It wassoliko Uncle Josh, that had the voice been
different, I should certainly have allotted the prav
er to him. It was perfectly unique. He .had til*
most finished the prayer, when it suddenly occur
red to him that be had sald'nolhing about the ser
mon. He seemed distressed at this; and giving
expression to something that distantly approached
j a groan, he commenced praying for the blessing of
I Heaven upon the sermon, and strove to introduce
i the text. “Thou, wilt not quench the broken flax;
Tboa wilt dot break the smoking—no, no; that's
wrong—l nay Thou wilt not&rrsZ: tbo broken flax
that’* not right! Thou wilt not break the b raised
reed; Thou wilt not quench the smoking flax
Thftta’a ill I've got it now!” and ho continued in
n similar strain jo the close of his brsyer, which he
finished off" by nraviog that they might “sfl be de*
livered from siupSatsu, and the devil!”
. I have intimated that'Uncle Josh did seme
tbioga of rather doubtful propriety.’thongh no one
questioned hi* good intentions. He was sent for
on one occasion to see a young friend of his
who was suffering under a severe attack of ague
and fever. He found him in bed, shaking v/ith
the fever. j
“Torn, what are you shaking there for?”
“I ea*n-ni fiety-'p it,” chattered Tom.
A sudden thought crossed Uncle JoshVmlnd.—
He pulled ouj hid watch, and exclaimed.
“What are in bed lor at thia time or day?”
“You tolldmeju> U i e down.
‘Get up, Isay. Getup, and dress yourself this
minute.” j
Tern,'however! who was very sick, refused.
"Bring me my horsewhip,” called Umile Josh to
one oftbe negroboys. “Bring me my h orsewhip.
If you don’t get up right strait and drea a yourself;
I’ll flog you!” -
TomjumpedfrorahU bed quick as thought, and
was dressed a little sooner than ha had' ever been
before, and Uncle Josh stood over hint with hi?
whip.
"Now run for; it! ni give vou just ibe length
ofthia room—and if I catch you, ni flog till you
can't stand. Run, I Bay!”
And run Tom did. He dashed down stairs and
mto the lot adjoining, scared half trot of his unsea,
and Uncle Josh after him. cracking his whip.—
Away they went.around the lot, round and round,
until poorTcm unk down from pure e xbauition.’
Uncle Josh picted. him up as gently as if he had
been Mi own son; and carrying him into tbo honsc
laid him down in bed, and covered him with blan
k«li and comfortables. A profese p ersuiratiod
broke out all over Tom, and he soon Aank into a.
genie sleep,’ from which he awaked neve-r to know

of hirrocovery.

there s nothing like the horsewhip for tho ague> *
He was returning one afternoon front n visit to"
a distant patient, and as be trotted gently along
side the garden of an aged female, whom every
% toTe «’ t , Qd J* rh ° m « ve nr body knew as th«i
t Widow Brookes”—her more common at.pcfcatiotf
beiog ‘*Consm.Nancy”—he saw her very busy
fixing somq flowers in their places. He gntded
his horse so'gehtly up to the fence, that oho did no t
know of his being near. Uncle Josh sat witching
her proceedings for some time, apparently with
much Interest in her work, but wuhoo.t saying a
word. Cousin Nancy fixed the last flower, and
then, standing up paihed back her sun bonnet
upon her heid;and putting her arms a k-jnbo, sud
denly caught sight ot Uncle Josh.
“Ha! ha.’ ha!” exclaimed be; “didn't know I was

“Can’t stop. Tat In a desperate hunry. Aunt

“Now, Dr. Gray, do tell me; what d oe* Aunt

“Out of the garden? - * Why, I eaal find a single

greens, that's the way we da”
. ‘'Well, now, I declare! What an.old
fool I am. Here I’ve been wishin 1 and within 1
for firceot, and I’ve got lots of ’em close by
me. How does Aunt Betty cook ’em Dr. Gray!"
“Just like any other greens. Just the same as
cabbage. Put 'em in a pot of water, with some
salt, and a piece of nice faldjacon, and token
they're boiled enough they’re first rate—nothing
better."
Deliveriaghimself of which important piece of
information in the matter of cookery, Uncle Josh
rode homewards, leaving Cousin Nancy reproach
ing herself as “an-old fool” for not knowing all that
before, aod wondering how she could have man
aged to remain ignorant of it ao tong. Supper was
ready, but'Cousin Nancy must needs go to her
corn patch, and cut some "suckers’" that Andey,
her colored girl, might washltbem at once, ready
for cooking next day; feeling as if *o much of the
preparation being made, her morrow's dinnei was
so much nearer at band. Andey opened her eyes
and mouth wide, when her ..listress brought in the
corn suckers and told her to wash them clean far
boiling to morrow.
“Why, Wsaus, they ain't fit for nothing,” she
exclaimed.
"Yes' yes! Andey, and m> I thought once, but
Doctor Gray's just told me that Aunt Betty uses I
theta lor greens, and has nothing else." 1
Andey gave a qaisl chuckle: and Cousin Nancy I
went in to her supper. Andey had prepared a I
right nice supper, but Cousio Nancy’s thoughts i
were upon her to-marrow’s dinner, when she ex
pected to feast off her “greena”—a dish which she
fnocied a k ; ng might envy. Aa soon as her sup
per waa over,ihe went into her corn patch, and
eounted'the “gutters," to see how many meals
*be could mahVoff.of them. This grave question
.being settled, she look up her knitting, though her
thoughts were on the morrow's “nice dinner.”—
Now, to eat bacon Cousin Nan
qy looked upona* n specie* of heresy.' She had
never done to, and it would have been next to
impossible for her to do it now; and so long had
"he been without her favorite dish, that abo dwelt
in imagination ou her morrow’s dinner, as though
it would be the grandest event in her life. The j
morrow came, and good as Andey wa* nt cooking
all manner of dishes, Ccuum Nancy felt that in a
matter of so much delicacy, it was due to' herself
to give the bacon nnd greeni her persons! super* .
intendoacc. So, examining the corn-suckers with
extreme care, she put them into a pot of water
along with a pjeco of nice fsl bacoa, and her mouth
watered at the prospect which her imaginations .
opened out before her. She r -took up her knitting,
and seated herself before the fire, watching the pot
»* it boiled, chatting a little witu Andjy, and ev*
ery now and then peering intc/the pot, to see if
all was right : Tbo pot had been on nearly four
hour*. With exemplary patience had ahe watch
ed the bacon boil almost to “death;" but it seemed
to her, as if the more she boiled the corn-suckers,
the more the'ylnever would get soft. She Bad the
bacon on one;dish, nnd the rockers on another.
and sal down to. dinner.' The first mouthful
of the auckerg. was enough. No mortal had
ever eaten surh a dish. Poor Cousin Nan
cy! It waatad to havcall her hopes dashed: thus
to Bulsoitwa*. Thecom-suckerswsre
not fit to Cat, sad her.dmacr'was spoiled.'
“Maybe Aiint Betty has some way of cookin’
’em soft,” suggested Aqdoy.
“Maybo she has,” replied Cousin Nancy, “I’ll
go to town thig afternoon and ask her.”
To town the went.' She found Aunt Betty
alone in her sitting room, and she drew a chair*
alongside ofher.
“Take off your boonel and shawl.now, and stop
and take an early tea. You are very warm and
tired. Qco ortb? bot* shall take you out in the ■
carriage this evening
"No! no! I can't, I’ve got something to ask
you.” And here she lowered her tone to aa audible
whisper,- “Aunt Betty, how do you boil corn-suck
er* so as to make ’em! toft?"’
“Boil corn-suckers?/ Why, child, you’re out of
your sense?' ' Why, I never heard tell of *uch n
thing." . I ■
‘Did ever T exclaimjfd Cousin Nancy, with the
mart woe-begone expression of cqunlenauce, .why
now, Ido declare if it don't bent all! Why Doctor
Gray tofd me that ymj boiled era every day for
greens; and I boiled florae ti-dsy, and t boded,
nnd I boiled, and they never wonld come soft.
Aid ro 1 came in to tl*c if you wouldn't tell me
how you boiled ’em, and now it turns out that
you never had any at all?'
. Aunt Betty puzzled herself to contrive what
Doctor Gray could hare meant; and was just try
ing to make some explanation, when In came Un
cle Josh himeell.
'DoctorGrey,’raid Aunt Betty, ‘what on earth
did yoq tell Cousin Nancy that wo boil corn stick'-
‘And here, I went, and boded, and boiled, dad
boiled the com Buckets till the bacon all boiled to
pieces, and tho com suckers were as hard as bal
lets;’ chimed in Cousin Nancy, with the most do*
lorous accent).
‘You didn’t do it right. There's a right way
and a wtobe way. Aunt Betty, you tell her how
’yon «b it You know nil about it.’
‘ Why, Doctor Gray ’ I never beard o( such a
thiag. Yon know we never had a corn-eockea in
tho boose. They aintfit to eat. What did pos
sess yonto teliConsin Naocv sucbastoryT
‘Wasn’t a story .was it ? [ don’t remember
much about it; bat I just'happen to laink now os
yoi mention it, that i did bear,her. say something
about‘greens,’ and 1. suppose I thought what a
pity she couldn’t cook corn suckers. Bat I don’t
remember reach about it.’ *
•But you told me A<w> Aunt Betty cooked ’em.,
‘Did l? Well, that wjs a mistake. I meant
that vsu the teay eheiooutl coot 'em if the could.'
It doe to Unde Jcsb and Aunt Betty to aay
that they made ample amends to Cousin Nancy.
Uncle Josh gat together a fine lot ofturnip greens
and ordered Jim to have the carriage ready at the
doer sLeix o’clock They jwrioaded her to stay
to supper, and when she went home »be carried
alongwilh her au abundant supply of good thlcgs.
.One day, meeting Uncle Josh, in the street, I
told him tharf should be at his house that even
ing on a pastoral visitation, un i requested him to
inform Aunt Betty, in order (but every thing might
be in readiness, Accordingly, taking with me a
clerical friend, who happened to be in town, I
Called at Doctor Gray’s at the appointed hoar. It
so happened, however, that Uncle Josh had for
gotten all about ray appointment, and of course
had said nothing to his family about it. A little
knot of members of tbe family bad gathered to
gether, and one whose powers of enlehainment
were duly appreciated kept the company con
vulsed with laughter. Unde Josh—in a happy
forgetfulness of my pastoral visitation—was per
fectly at home. He.stood upon the door, with
his bands down deep in his pockets, and shaking
all over with laughter, his little grey eyes twink
le hnp r with Inexpressible enjoyment. His pretty
f ceice Bcefeed to feel it a real pleasure to 1 entertain
. her uncle?and on she wetil, keeping the whole
company in a continued roar. There stood Unde
Josh, the tears rolling down bis chocks, and he
shaking'al! over with laughter.
But the moment he sight of us his coun*
tenancc fell to its utmost length, nnd he looked like
the most wretohed being in the world. He said
nothing, but, crossing to the opposite ndc of the
room, he stink into n seat at the end of the side
hoard, and commenced groaning with great vigor.
Louise, hia niece, in ignorance oflbe object of otir
visit,was not to belnterrupted ofcoursejn her story;
and soon as we were seated resumed the thread
where we bud broken it. On nbe went, and we,
who came there on a pastoral visit, wondered nt
the strangeness of the preparation. Uncle Josh’s
groans became the louder and deeper; and (be
pretty Louise, grew wtuicr nnd wittier. The sto
ries multiplied,and Uncle Josh grew more distress
ed. Tho company laughed, and Unde Josh seem
ed as if the preservation of all earth depended on
his groaning. His deep distress caused Louise to
Kop fur n moment, when Aunt Betty, struck with
(be sudden change that bad come over him, whis*
pered-to her,
“What on earth’s the matter with Dr. Gray 1 I
wonder if he has'nt tbecholie?”
No, Dr. Gray bad not ibe cholic. He wns dis
tressed to think that be had lorgotten to tel! Aunt
Betty that he had appointed a pastoral visitation
at bis house; and now we had come, arid in«'rß«
of having Bible and Prayer Book all ready, uerd
the whole family prepared, here they were, laugh
ing away with all their might; It was this distres-
secThira. But finding now a pause in Louise’s
atone*, he peeped slyly from belling thq sideboard,
and called oat, so t-e to ha heard by us ail.
•Mr. Johnston, wait do vou think ot toe doctrine
o guinrat'on?
‘Think of wbal, sir?’
“Pratpertitv gentralion, sir. What do yon think
of it-?’
The question was pUI to our friend, who an
•wered, Bomewbat abruptly.
“I know nothing abbut it, sir.”
ft waa a hard matter to keep our countenance
straight. Aunt Betty look a great many pinches o f
snuff, and Louise enjoyed the scene richly.
“You don’t?” exclaimed Uncle Josh, io great
astonishment, and coming out of bis hiding place,
his bands down deep in his pockets; “you’ve
studied theology, haven't you?”
“Yes, sir, 1 have; bnt 1 never studied that."
‘ Well, then, sir, I tell you what, vou’ve got some
things to learn yeU The education of yoong
ministers is very deficient, air, very, if thiy don't
ptud? that question. Now mind mo, sir”—pnd.
Uncle Josh shook his head with great solemnity;
“now mind me, sir, 1 tell you that question’s going
tu shake ibe church to its centre. It will, sir, 1 tell
von it will. If it don’t, then my not Joshua
Gray.” !
Aunt Betty suggested thaUhq didnTknow any
thing about it himself, and firept: so for as to hint,
. in rather plain terms, that he had not even so much
as beard of iu Louise asked When he hod studied
theology, and when he was to jprcach, and hoped
it would be right soon. To all* which depreciating
observations Uncle Josh replied, that be “hadn’t
ruad bis Bible for nothing;” “and I lei! you ail,
now bear mu witoesa," and be brought his hand
dawn with great force upon ihe.tnble, ''that doc
trine's not inside the Bible! It aiht; »io, not ovl*
tido Mithff/ ’ On the deliverance of which Im
portant piece of information Aunt Betty took a
great many-more pinches of snuff than was ne
wwj; Hannah, ibe waiting maid, went out to
report that Uccle Josh had grown awful wise,
“he’s got the Bible by heart inside and out!” Louise
•oggei4cd that ‘-it waa funny doctrine that was
neither in the Bible; nor out ot it;” sod the rest of
the .company sought relief in a singular kind of
cough,, which suddenly caoo upon them aiL—
Uficta Joth told Looije that abe was bed a child*
ud. that then doctrtses were myttsries'vlueh the
be expected to comprehend; and woaud
op with a piece of gnrre adnee to read her Bible,
with prayer for light, but never to 1 attempt toon*
denland each a doctrine as this of irttich be was
•peaking. To ah. which Louise responded that
he had only made ber curiosity the more awaken*
ed, to u htow whereabouts Uncle Josh had picked
ap doctrines that were nowhere at alL n|
- At length, when the company had aoberedtiown
a little, 1 ventured to assert that Unde Josh had
made a slight mistake in. the doctrine. It was not,
as I apprehended, ihe j doctrine of “prospective
generation," but that ofjngmsiptjustifcatton.
*'That’s it! Thai's ill" exclaimed Undo Josh,
snipping his fingers with great glee; and launched
at once into a diacussioh to prove that they both
meant the same thing." :j
• Time rolled on, and aßUctioa came heavily upon
the family of Uncle Josh. Aunt., Betty Was smit
ten with a sickness, that was unto death. It was
my privilege to minister to her in her dying mo
menta. I heard her dear and beautiful testimony
to the goodness of her saviour, and I closed her
eyes in the sore and hope of ber glorious
resurrection lrotn the dead. Poor Uncle Josh nev
ever recovered from this stroke. Hit life and an
imation all left him. Hd was humbly submissive;
bnt, to Aunt Betty he |'owed, under God, all hia
hopes of heaven; and now she was taken away.
His health failed him daily. He paWed much of
his time in prayer, and in reading the Bible; and
one day, while sitting ia|hia arm chair before the
fire, with his Bible on hifi knee, bo paushd, raised
his bead, and said, J f
* I see her! She’s witp Jesus! • I’ll co to het ! n
His family gathered arpund him, bnt be was,al
ready gone to meet Aun| Betty in heaven.

Diseases or mt Lipjx.— When the celebrated

thus accounted for. The enuse of their conduct,

in a diseased state of the UMr,. No organ in the hn*
