The subject of tortuucTcnuig was in troduced. Several of the “ angels” pleading guilty to the soft iinpeaoh- ’nient of having wHtten to Mailain This and Madam That to furnish them leaves in their future history. In stances were mentioned of some very remarkable developments in a certain ca*e hereabout*. Old R was asked for bis opin ion. lie replied : “ So far as I am personally concerned, I know more about myself than I wish to. I don’t think any good comes of these tilings. I had a friend who dressed himself in lady’s clothes, and called upon a cele brated prophetess, lie did not lielievc she would discover his disguise, but lie heard what made him unhappy.” Here the old reprobate ceased. A lady much interested asked, “ What did she tell him?” “She told him lie was to marry soon, and become the mother of ten children !" How They Love Fish.—A yoltug gentleman in this city, in whom we have the most perfect confidence, gives us the following conversation which he overheard between two colored citizens the other evening ns ho was returning from prayer meeting: “ Sam, does you know Jonah ?” “Jonah, what Jonah?” “ Why, Jonah that swallowed de whale, don’t you know him?” “ Why, damn his big-mottfed sole, was lie from Firginny?” “Of course lie was from Firginny.” “ Well, de Firgininns always was lull for fish.”—Jfurymlle lhdldin. Beware of the Lames.—Word was sent by Mr. II , a defeated candidate, to a married iady, who was supposed to have changed the expected vote of her husband on election day to the opposite {tarty, to the following effect: “ Go and tell Mrs. that I will send her, by the first opportunity, a pair of pantaloons for her political services.” “ Go tell Mr. II ,” was the re ply, “ to send them along at once. Don’t forget to tell him that I want a new pair—not a pair that his wife has half worn out.” eiiilKsr, 1874.* Se|*t, noth—*; F.

Willie Ray was the only son of a poor, but highly respected widow, who lived in au humble cot on the outskirts of one of those extensive pine forests, so common in eastern Virginia.— Willie was an industrious and du tiful hoy, beloved by all of bis companions, and much osteenped for his frank and upright conduct.: Often during the summer months; when no , lio'tter..employment'of fered, Willie would busy himself in picking the tine, large, blue huckleberries, which grew so abundantly a mile or two from his mother’s residence. The berry ground was an' extensive plateau of alternate moor and forest, call ed in eastern Virginia a p<teuton. These poeusons, besides a heavy growth of oak and pine, are usual ly covered .with n dense .'mass of green briars and tangled under growth, with here and there moors, or ponds, which are clear of hushes, except around the bor ders where the hueklelierrv ap pears to enjoy its favorite habitat. These ponds arc generally dry in summer, hence, there is no diffi culty in walking over them.— These pocosqus, take them all in all, are wild, .weird localities, re fused by the agriculturist, and are fit (intuits for deer, wildcats, aud snakes. > . - • • .On a summer afteruoou, in the latter, .part of June, Willie,had gtmcrqis Ugual, to the liqeosqn to {lick his allotted quota of berries, which he’desmucd faking (hi 1 hext day to the village market. He had been more than usually suc cessful, and aller all his baikeffc Wero filled, lie had tarried awhile to satisfy his own. berry-loving propensity. In the meantime, he had not observed, or tho umbra geous forest had hid from view, the gathering storm in the west; but now tho distant mutterngsof the thunder warned him that no time was to be lost in making bis way back to bis home. Having wandered, in his search for ber ries, much farther into the forest than he had intended, l o soon found that the storm would be upon him long before he could reach home. The first drops of rain were already falling, and find ing a large hollow log, Willie eon- eluded to crawl into the open' end of it, far enough to shelter him from the rain. He thought that the rain would soon be over, and he would then make his way out of tlie forest. "Willie's improptu house served the purpose of shel tering him from the ruin admira bly, but it came near proving liis grave also. An opening in the log in front of him disclosed to Willie that he had a companion as dangerous and deadly as the hideous Cobra. A huge rattle snake displayed its slimy coils to the horror-struck boy ! Tlie rage of the elements without, the thun der’s crashing peals, and light ning’s Hash, were enough to have appalled older hearts; but now to be cooped up with a deadly rattle snake darting its forked tongue within less than a yard of his face uo wonder the poor hoy was palsied, and rendered incapable of extricatiug himself from his peril ous situation. Willie felt its sub tle ga/.e fixed upon him—felt that he was charmed, with uo power to break the fascination ! Every moment the serpent’s influence was growing stronger, he was more and more completely mas tering his victim, his coils were enlarging, and his fiery, venomous tongue was drawing nearer and nearer to the helpless boy ! An other moment and he is near enough to strike, and the hideous reptile is about to fix. deep his poison fangs in the very cheeks of the widow’s only earthly stay and comfort! But—thanks he to that God who never forsakes His chil dren in their hour of greatest peril—just at that moment a large limb, severed by the wind from its parent tree, fell immediately across the log. - It frightened and broke tho serpent’s charm, 1 which, uncoiling itself, passed quietly down over Willie’s'back out of the log. The poor boy, uiorc dead than alive at the shock his system had sustained, after a fer vent prayer of thankfulness for his remarkable deliverance, hastened to leave his shelter, aud lost no. time in making the best of his, way out of the gloomy woods, to his home and the arms of his mother. The widow had been much distressed at her son’s ex posure to the storm ; but oh ! who can tlcserilie her feelings when she learned of the dreadful danger from which lie had escaped. The shock to her was scarcely less se vere than it had been to Willie. That night, tlm lowly couple, poor ip this world’s gootl^, hut rich in faith, around their little family altar, poured out their whole hearts in gratitude to Him who holdeth and ordeyeth the lives of all Ilis subjects.
