Mtai farther exploration for contraband goods was
to be a prifound secret.
Jlnt a new view of the case arose. Jonathan
now had a commodity in his cargo which might
really be adjudged subject to seizure, and lie was
tud at all aware whether bo was able to pay the
duties which might be imposed nn this new kind
of stock. Prudence dictated a retreat, and by n
road which was not much frequented. Jonathan
was no» long in giving free reins to his horses
over a corduroy or log road, which took him to the
American lines, in a drjve of about litre** miles,
and although it was very rough, the poor Collect
or, as he was jolted over the logs, suffocated by
the saw dust, concluded that it was a little dusty.

The Collector was released on parole, and

Joaquin, the Mexican Robber.
The Nan Francisco Herald gives a romantic
account ol Joaquin, u»e Mexican robber. He re
cently stopped on tlie S.tlina*« Plains, and the ow n
er ul the house asking him, in the course of the
conversation, if he had heard of Joaquin, the per-

Without any furtiicr ceremony, and perfect
ly unexcited, the robber went on to relatu the rea
son ol his conduct in Ins late career. He said that
becoming disgusted with the frequency of Mexi
can revolutions, he had come to California to end
his d.i v in \>■•*ce, as an American citizen, but
that he lud txv.i op*weased, robbed* and persecut

George Johnson snatched my ball, and I got an

playing, Charley Smith struck me, anil before 1

bow bard I try, I esn’t be good. It ia so esav to
get angry, and bad words come out bo quick.—
What’s the reason, ina, that we can’t be good
[when we want to be ?”
I Mrs. Wilson thought a minute, and then said •
“Doyou remember, Tojwny,riding downhill on
your sled, last witttor ?”
O yes, mamma, the hill was covered f with
snow, and it was beat down until it was almost
smooth as ice, and we went down so fast (that
it almost took away my breath t”
|“Well, my son, but did you go up as fast ?”
“Onn,ma!” It was slow, hard work)getting
i. We would slip at almost every step’and we
couIJ'ni get up at all tn the place where we *Ud

where the snow was not worn *" smooth and
slippery!”
“Then, it was easierto go down than in go up,
was it ?”
“O yes: it’s always so with hills.”
“And theoltener you went down on your sled,
the smoother the snow got, and the faster you
could go?”
“Yes, mama.”
“Well, Tommy, when God made Adam and
Eve, und put them in the garden, it was as easy
for them to do right as to do wrong. It was like
alking on level ground; they could go one way
s woll as the other. But they chose to do wrong,
and ever since then the world has been like the
'side of a mountain. It is up hill toward heaven
and it is down hill towards hell. I cannot tell
you, my hod, why it is so, any more than I cun
tell you why God made a hill out there instead of
|a level plain; but every body fiuds it so. And
then by doing wrong we make the down-hill more
and more slippery all the time. Our evil habitH
like your sleds; they smroth the way, so that
go faster and fatter. Its hard work even to
slop doing wrong, just as hard as for you to stop
your sled when half way down, and going like a
|race horse. And it is still harder to go up. We
nil the time slipping back. We find our old
h tbits tripping ns up at every step l** -
Then, ma, we might as well give op trying,”
said Tommy, in a sad and bitter tone.
|“I>idmy little boy nay so last waiter, wheu
f was climbing up the bill to ride down ou his
falcd ? He slipped a great many times, and once
or twice fall quite down in the snow; but lie
scrambled up again and kept on trying, because
he wanted to have the pleasure of riding down
Viftly over the smooth snow. Will Tommy
more for a few minutes’ sport than for being
good and going to hqaven ?”
Tommy fell ashamed of what lie had said.—
lie laid hi* head in his mother's lap and what ins
[thoughts were l cannot telk Rut after a while
lie looked up, us earnest as a hero* nisi said:
•Mh, Fve hem a r >oli>»ii !x>y. I Untight I
mould be good right «*ft| anJ with hardly any
trouble. But I see now that it is not so, and I
mean to try with all my might; and I know, ma,
that I shall he happier even while i am trying ;
and God will help me, won’t he, ma ?”
|Yes, my son, if you are humble and do not
|think that you cun be good of yourself without bis
help. You have learned to-day how weak your
own strength is ; and I hope that you will pray
every day, and often every day, for*God to watch
over you, and keep you 'from falling, and raise
you up when you fall: no ! ;|itt you will watch
yourself, my dear boy, m, **t to overcome all

hill slippery world tliis is, and ilia.* we must ex
pect hard work in getting through it to heaven.—
But dial heaven will be worth aJt the efforts of a
thousand such lives as this!”
And Tommy followed his mother’s advice, and

liers that Monday, when he thought it was
hard to be good, and the hill and the snow, ami
