MUSCULAR 'CHRISTIANITY
• In, the autumwof 18.57 L _spent a few
days in a country parsonage, and ou the
Sunday morning at breakfast, the pas
tor's---wife received a letter, which her
tittering told us must be a tit-bit. • "Ali,
uncle," exclaimed she, "here are (deli
cle doings exactly. to your taste."' The
writer, a*lady iu a distant country,
narrated that the had 'lately come in
to' the next parish a new vicar--a very
flue young man, wilo at school had no
superior either in tilreekor in his box ing,-
and whaatoe,nuiversity won honors
for his classics and silver cups for his
boating. He Wa.s beginning in • earnest
theAVol.k. of au evangelist among a long
neglected, vicious and brutal people.—
He had a plan and a will; but many
worthy folks were fearing that his zeal
was without knowledge—or wisdom, at
any rate. One" of his first measures
Was to open a school in a remote part of
the parish and get the room licensed for
week-day preaching. But all the drunk
ards rose against such unheard of pro
ceedings. They 'would run after •him
cursing -and- hootinc , , and discharging
volleys; of sods- _mid - . other missiles.
Finding remonstrance vain he adopted
-another course on the - Wednesday even
ing in the week befOre I heard the story.
Making a stand in the middle of the
road at the entrance of the hamlet just
as the storm arose, and looking the
savages in the the.', ,he addressed them
thus in a firma, quiet voice which coin
,
Manded ' their attention: "My good
fellows, I have borne this patiently for
some time but now I must put, a stop to
it; .and I'll do so in your own way.—
Choose your best man, and we'll tight
it out. If - I beat, you'll give up you
know." They looked at him unbeliev
ingly ; but throwing his coat on a. bush
he added, " I am in earnest; send your
man," The radians laid their heads
together; and then a burly , riant step
ped forth and stripped, and made a
furious dash at his reverend challenger,
'who quietly parried the unskillful blows,
and played with them for a few seconds.
But, then, a fist was planted in the
peasant's chest, and he lay at full length
on the ground. Quickly gathering him
self _up, however, he skulked away to
his companions. "Now send your next
best and I'll go through the lot of you."
Again their heads drew together and
another and 'another threw down his
ineket ; going. to work, however, with
a,nore cautious energy. But at owe a
stomacher stretched him_On the road.
"Your next." Once_ more a conglome ,
rate of dense pate Ff was formed. " Bill,
thee teck him." Bill eyed. the hero
askance, and '-hook his head. "Thee,
Jim;" a shake of the head from Jim
also. " Dick, thee'l teck th' parson?"
a shake more decided, and a stiff "Nay,
nay; Pse see thee hung fast." ' And
now the first one who was vanquished
stood forward and, like a brave man,
'called out, "I say, parson, ya're a rare
young un, yo ar,. I'se tell thee what;
we're going to hear you preach." And
they all followed him along the little
street, said the writer,' and heard the
Word quietly, adding; it retintins to be
seen what will become of the fight.-
- What, did,come of it I heard, a long
time afterward, that front that day the
Men doffed their hats„ and the women
courtsied, and the children looked awe
'stricken, when they Met or passed him;
that.the church and schools were filled
that the beet-houses Were nearly -all
shut up, and that a _great moral and. re
ligious reformation was in progress.—
That' gentleman `had previously been
the-instrument ofa like- change in an
equally demoralized parish. I May add
that a few years back he was deemed
the fittest clergyman in the church to
go out as bishop tuft scene of great per-,
sonal danger in a heathen country.
A DEAF CRIER.—An old court-crier,
who had grown grey in -the cause, - and

Jeff again conspireth again! t Abra
ham. And it came to pass that. Grant,
one of the chief captains of the host of
Abraham, had beseiged a stronghold of
one of the southern provinces and Jeff
was exceeding wroth thereat.
And Jeff, being tempted by the devil,
sought again the life of Abraham.—
And he called together his chief coun
selors, and said unto them.
" Inasmuch as the armies of Abra
ham are more powerful than our own,
and have laid waste our country, and
he himself hath freed our bondmen,
and taken captive many of our fighting
men, now let us, I pray thee, wilily and
craftily, destroy his life, and the lives
of his chief counselors, and of his
chief captain ; then will doubt - and dis
cord, grow up amongst them,' and there
shall be none left to direct his people ;
and we will rise up and possess the land,
and be rulers over this nation." •
And the saying pleased them. And
they said with one accord, "let it be,
Oh Jeff, as thou bast said."
And he sent abroad his devices
throuehout the revolted provinces, say
ing, " - Unto the man who will take,
forme the life of Abraham, .1 will give
more than-thirty pieces'of silver; and
he shall rule over the half- of thy king
dom, and sit next me at my 'table; and
be called nv, cousin."
And the saying pleased-many; and
they sought how. they might. destroy
him.
_ Now there dwelt, in - the-chief city of
the northern provineeg, tr young man,
by profession an actor; and- he played
before the people,, and-;got much gains
thereby, and his tiame,was Booth; and
with Booth -dwelt wickethaese, and the
devil entered Auto him, and he sought
in his heart . -how -he- might betray the
chief ruler : - - •-
And he said unto Jeff, "Oh Jeff, live
forever, Illy wisdom,-and- tlw counsels
shall preserve thee, - and thy kingdom
shdil be built up, to be moved nb more
forever, for will take Plr thee, the life
of Abraham."
And Jeff-an - swered- and said, "Do
thou Oh- littioth, a thon—hast said, and
thou shalt receive much-hoilur, and thy
exceeding-great rewurcLu-._-::
. Now Booth went his wajr + and con
spired wifh=many othenr,-- . Who vowed to
assist him in escaping from the wrath
which he knew woniri be kindled
among the friends of Abraham.,
After these thingS. Booth came unto
Abraham and said unto him : "Come
thou this night to the entertainment
that I shall give ! for the-benefit of th 3
soldiers, snit bring -with-d:4 thy chief
captain t ;" - and= tee• - prdirered much
friendship to Abraham.
And Abraham went; - And lo! when
he was seated, Booth Itew_him and fleet.
And his fiends-helpe4 him , to escape,
and were hanged therefor, befdre many
days.
A nd - the oldiars of Abraham pursued
after Booth' s - and overtook him, and
slew him.
And other of the conspirators sought
the life of - Abraham's chief counselors,
and maltreated them, and wounded
them sore; and they also were hanged.
Nov with this thing: Jeff was well
pleased; mid -- the - - men of liberty,
mourned the loss of Abraham many
days. _ _ ,
