A DIFFICULT CIIUUCII. —The faculty of
one of our largest theological seminaries
received sometime since a letter, in
which the inhabitants of a small town in
Kansas applied to them for a young cler
gyman to take charge of their spiritual
education. The long and formidable ar
ray of qualifications which the minister
must possess, and the extremely meager
salary attached to the position, threw
the good doctors of the faculty into
something akin to despair. After much
thought, one suggested that the reply
run thus: '-The only man of whom we
know who could satisfy yon is our rever
ed college president, now dead some
few years, and who, having accustomed
himself to heavenly food (air), eoufd per
haps eke out a bare subsistance upon the
salary which you propose." This after
due deliberation was rejected and the
next proposal listened to : "We know ol
no one, except the Apostle Paul, who ap
proaches to your standard of piety; he
might preach of a Sunday, and get his
living by sail-making on week-days."
This was at length also rejected, and the
following reply dually hit upon and dis
patched: "We know of no man upon
earth good enough for you, or who could
possibly live on the salary you mention.
We therefore advise you to make an effort
to secure the angel Gabriel, who could
board in heaven, and comedown Suhdays
to preach."— EDlTOß'S DRAWER, in Har
