—ln a certain parish in Yorkshire,
not long since, an old clergyman, who
had got a strong-lunged curate, observed
that one of his hearers wis becoming
rather irregular in his attendance at
church. Os course, the divine felt it his
duty to visit the backslider, and be ac
cordingly went to the house, but the
gudeman was not in. He inquired of
the wife why John was so seldom at
church now. “Oh,” she replied, with
out the least hesitation, “that young man
you've got roars sue loud that John
caimnsreepsae comfortable as lie did
when preaching yerself sae peaceably.”
—ln New York recently a respecta

street- —and nearly choked with sobs,
and with a white handkerchief employed
in wiping the tears from his eyes, in
formed the lady that his dear wife was
dead and that he desired the best coffin
in the store. She showed him a num
ber, and at length, when his grief had
somewhat subsided, he selected one at
the price of $2.5, which he directed to
be -sent to a certain number in Henry
street. He took.out a well tilled pocket
book and handed Mrs. Newman a SIOO
bill. Not suspecting that a man who
was laboring under such a misfortune
could be a rogue, she changed the bill,
giving him $75, after which he depart
ed. It was soon after discovered that
the $lO6 bill was counterfeit, and that a
coffin Was hot at present required at the
house designated by the imposter.
