We do not vouch for its truth: * OomMtAY Find the Verdict.—At a re cent sreSioft of one of tho courts of South Carolina, an entire negro jury wns empan- nelcd. A case was hroWght before them, the witnesses examined, and the nttoflleyt* made their resprcllvu ariruments. The judge, after laying down the law and recKpitWlaliBg the tostimy, gave the papers into the hands of the foreman, a ratlier intelligent looking darkey, with In- structionR pa soon as they Ihttttu a vetdiet to bring Vt ill Without fail. Thirty minutea or morn elapsed, when the jury returned, headed by the foreman, and* stood before the judge. As the foreman appeared to hesitate, the judgo enquired: “Afr. Foreman, have you found a ver- dlct?” “Ko, Massa Judge, wo haben’t found ’em no how,” replied tltc ehrtllV juryiAan. *Tt’« a very plain ense,” said the judge. “Can’t help It, mnssn, eouldA’t see it,” replied ebony again. “Oti what grounds?” enquired the judge. “We didn’t look into tho grounds, Mas- sa Judge,” replied the foreman, “do ossi- fer he did take us into ft room and locked us in, nnd told us when we found do ver dict ho would loll* us out. So wo pognn to And do verdict, and search ebery nook, corner, crevis, and in eltry ting (Tore was in dnt romp, hut we found no verdies—no nuffin ob do kinc dhr.” Not for Joe. A young man living down town, with out the fear of his sweetheart's parents be fore his cyes^ulertook to “hook” the ob ject of his adoration from a second story window in her father’s house, on Friday night Inst. The old man hearing the “mss,” went out in his night clothes, look ing like the ghost of Hamlet, nnd espied Joe going up the ladder. The old ntau caught hold of the foot of tho ladder and let something drop. It wns Joe. Crab bing him by the collar, he lifted him to his ibetaud nearly shook bun out of his clothes, after which he led him into the house and lectured him as follows: Look here, you cussed sneak, whenever you go and learn a decent trade, nnd kin make enough money to pay house rent an’ raise a family, yon’kin come here without a ladder, walk hi the frontdoor nit* marry my darter, an’ not till then. D’ye hear?” And the ferocious old man led Joe out of the house, and told him to “git.” The young lady has signified her willingness to wait for .Toe. I piny of the proprietors of our manufactories are colled upon to-day or to-morrow by a young man who wants to learn a trade, take him in—that's Joe.

Yet still l know Heaven’s plains are fair, And the soft light fall on the sea of gold, And white wings wave in theamhoralr, And the Father smiles as He shilled Of old, V hat Will You Tnlte? “Wlmt will you take to drink?” asked a waiter of a young lad who for the first time accompanied Tils father to ft public dinner. Uncertain wlmt to say, and feel ing sure that he could not be wrong if he followed Ids father’s example, he replied, “I’ll take what father takes.** The answer reached his father's c'rtf, ftnd instantly the tell responsibility of his po sition Hashed upon him. If he said, “l’H take ftle,” as he had always said before, his son would take it also, aud then? And the father shuddered ns the history of sev eral young men, once as promising as his own Wight lad, aud ruined hy.drink, start* ed up in solemn warning before him.— Should his hopes also be masted, and that open-faced lad beeomo a burden? But for strong drinks they would have been active, earnest, prosperous men; and If it could work such rum upon them, was his own lad safe? Quicker than lightning these thoughts passed through his mind, and in a moment the decision was made. “If the hoy falls he will not have me to blame,” nnd then hi tones tremulous with em’dtmri, and to the astonishment of those who knew him, he said, “Waiter, I’ll take wa ter;” and from that day to this strong drink has been banished from that man’s tabic nnd from that man's home.

A lover could then tell whether his love weighed one hundred and eighty or seventy-live pounds; could tell at a glance what she was. But now they could not toll whether the girl wns made by the divss-mnker or by God; they lookod her over, nnd were not suro she was not half cotton; touched her head, anddidu’t know whether they felt nature’s hair or a musty waterfall. Twenty years ago wo were all better, looked better, and were bet ter Christians. We had progressed for the worse., and as we cautiiuied so would the boys follow.” A Good One. In an article upon the probable scarcity , of ice during the next summer the Hart ford Fast tellstho following story: “A godfl mnH.y years ago, when tec In slimmer was a rarity in cities add fth un heard of thing in the country, a good dea con of a rural church was charged with haviug got decidedly fuddled one 4th of July in Ncw Yorlc. lie was arraigned for his misconduct. With tears In luS eyes he confessed his fault, but plunded in pallia tion that it was a prodigious hot day. and ice in the punch ltd look so cool and invi ting thnthe couldn’t resist the tchiptdlion, and he supposed he did actually drink to intoxication. A tew browed brother on a back seat listened attentively but Incredu lously to the defence, nnd nt Its cc arose. “I lmin’t no objection,” said ho, to a man’s getting drunk if he own up to it and is sorry for it. That’s a thing a man’s liable to, and p’raps, sometimes h'e can’t help it; hut when tlio deacon comes in here and undertakes to excuse himself in any such way as that—talking about seeing ice in July—I go lor jerkin’ him outibr lyln.” Boor or an Iron Still Dcinollslicd—Thlr* ly Bon Under tho Rnlus.
