In the town of A-, up among the

His remarks for "the honor conferred" in

• lAlthougn a stranger in the city, he dis

,ieople Would think hire greed; so; after
Natiderin,,o about for.some time his eye at

building in question,. So he boldly walk
ed in and seeing a man. at a desk busily en

'Fine morning, :stranger."
''"Yes," was !the response.
"Say, mister, I -!have a leetle business
with you," in 'alone slightly ,riled at 'the
iconic response.
"Well, what is it?" said the Clerk laying
down his pen. '
"Sir, 'ti- this_ I suppose I am' entitled
to a Seat in this ere building, and I would
like . fOr you to show_ me the way to where
the rest of them are."
"What dO you take this to be!" asked
the clerk, a §niile playing round his
mouth. I
"The State House, to be sure."
"The State HdtisA ! I fear you are slight

Old Steve gave one look in the face of
the clerk to make, sure that he was not jok

street, and gave tbe first person he met a

That night he returned to beg the clerk',
not to tell of his Mistake; but it was too
late. It. had spread far and' wide, and to

Thomas Say, who lived a - century ago,
was a member of the society of Quakers.

the work in que- Con:— .
the ninth day, between the hour ,
of four and five, I fell into a trance, in which
I remained till about three orfour the :le
morning. 'After my departure from the .
body—for I felt that I had left the body—
my father and mother, together with oth -
.ms, among whom was Susannah Robinson,
who were watching with me, shook me anti

remaining life in Dr. 'Kearstey, wh , -
Awl; attended me; was sent for, and in Fit ,
manner examined me and pronounced Int

turned back, saying that something im
yelled . him to try further. After applying
a glass to my mouth and fin ling a
moisture upon it, he said that if I was no;

;poke; and those who were sitting up with
tie were very much alarmed; the secon
iime I spoke they all rose from their seats'
the third time they all came to me. l‘b
father and motile . queStioned me about u:,
add I told them that I though
that I had died; and as I left the body and
rose towards Heaven my ears were greeter
with voices, the music of which threw in,
into transports of joy. The prospect. arounc
In ' as I floated along, was arrayed in th ,,
frost beautiful green. I cast my eves back
towards the earth and saw that three mei
of my - acquaintance had died. Two of
these looked white and guns; he other wa
:lot so. The three rose from their bathe!,
is I hid done from mine. There appeared
before us a transparent opening. I an,i
one , of these men came up .to it and he
paSsed in; but at the moment when I at
tenipted'to enter I Came out of the trance.
On my return to consciousness I said t:
flay Mother, •Oh that I had made one step
further, and not returned to earth again
I desired them to say nothing to me, for 1
still heard the music that bad- so ravishe,.
;ne; and while I heard it I felt no pain, bur
when it ceased the pain returned. I told
those who were with me of the death of
the three men, and they sent to see if i ,
was SO. The Messenger returned, saying
that they were dead. One of these was
negro named C,uffee. belonging to the wig

kitchen. When they we-e laying him on a

were no hindrance to my sight.
:''After my- recovery the widow Icearne
sent for me. I told her that I had seen

she ;questioned me as to where he died.

tiyeen the jamb of the chimney and the
wall,' and mentioned the circumstance of
his lien slippihg from their hands. She
replied that was right; and asked
further if I coald tell where they laid him.
I replied that _hey had laid the body be

Ask a member of that highly-polished
guild what heiunderstands by the phrase.
"Polite Society," and he will tell you that
signifies a select, ate. iation of ladies and
gentlemen by whom he. laws (prescribed
14 courtesy ari , ( good breeding are strictly
ohserved. Hi will ma say that obedience
to the polite code of n involves deliberate
treason to truth and. ndor. Yet so it is.
- .
Put the same uestioi to a synical despis
er of etiquettei and h will insist that "Po
lite Society" iS tieith:r more nor less than
a! congeries of com i entional hypocrit e=. governed by rules - Which forbid th 4 bold
utteiance of unpleasant truths and sanction
the use of tlat,erin . o. falsehoods. The cyn
ic's though somewhat harsh, A%it
•
be found, upon the whole, correct TO be
courteous, in the true, Christian sense of,
the worth—for courtesy is a Christian ivir
tue—it is not necessary to be mendacious.
To revile a person whom we happen to
difilike wou'd be unnecessary and ungentle
manly; but to flatter and compliment him
im s piece of unmanly meanness. " "Polite
Society" when otf parade, and resolved
hack into its domestic elements,• is even
-More bitter and accrimonious than the -n
-pOlished vulgar. It indemnifies itself be
hind the scenes for the part it plays in pub
lie,. by satirizing, abusing and condemning
very people to whom it has recently
rendered homage. It is an artificial sys
tem, founded on the gran.' mistake that it
iz impossible to be at once courteous and
sincere. Depend upon it, there is very
little Christian charity in what is called
"Vol4te Society."
