Readers of Shakespeare have al ways enjoyed the wit of Portia, in the Merchant of Venice, by which ■ho snveil Antonio from the knife ofShylock. The pretended judge »lii r tried the right of Shy look to hie pound of tleeh, but added, ahnilld a drop of blood be shed in tuking it, his life would Ikj forfeited. A California judge has shown equal wit. A hard character, well known j us a thief, was indicted for entering a miner’s tent and stealing a bag of gold dust. The theft waa proved. He had been seen to cut a slit in the tent and reach in and take the : bag. A bright thought occurred to the counsel for the defense. “How far did he get when he took the dußt ?” “About half way in ns he reach- . cd over,” said the witness. “May it please your honor," said the shrewd lawyer, “I shall demand j the acquittal of my client. The inditemeut is not sustained. lie did not enter the trnt. Can a man j enter a house when one-half of bis body is iu and the other half out ?" The jury and judge were equal to the emergency. The verdict of the jury was: “Guilty ns to nne-hulfof; his body, and not guilty ns to the other half.” The sentence of the judge was : Imprisonment, for the guilty part, of two years. The prisoner may leave the other part behind, or take it with him.” The ■harp lawyer .was outwitted. A Touching Incident. An English nctres», paesing along jt street one day, heard singing.— She looked in at an open door upon >a little prayer-meeting, and caught .the woids Depth of mercy can there be, Mercy still reserved tor me? She entered, listened awhile, nnd then went away, hut the hymn went with her. She became a Christian, and determined to leave the stage; Gut the manager would not release her from fulfi'ling her j engagement. The last night she played with unusual brilliancy and at the close was called before the curtain. Her contract was discharg ed ; she had no master now but Christ. Standing there with clasp ed hands and streaming eyes, she sung : Depth of mercy can there be Mcrey still reserved for me? Call my (lod his wrath forbear Me, the chief of ■timers spare? Tho audience was melted by the pathetic confession and plea, and many sought the same mercy. Hope. A young lady had been spending the day with a batchelor minister and his sister. The young ludy : whose name was Miss Hope, had been much gratified with the kiud ly treatment received at the go6d old man’s, and on leaving, express ed her thanks for the kindness of tha minister, making at the same time the remark that sho had not . yet hoard from him in the pulpit, j but she continued, "I will he over on the Sabbath to hear you.” “1 shall be very glad to see you, Miss Hope, and, under the very in teresting circumstances, you might j suggest a text for the occasion, and ! I will do all the justice to it I con.” ' “I will, he glad to do that, sir,” re- j plied the lady, “How would this ' one do—“ Lay hold upon the Hope i set before you." Tho (.'harm of Sympathy. The story is told of a famous la- j dy who once reigned in Paris soci ety, that site was so very homely, that her mother said one day, “My poor child, you are too ugly forany one ever to fall in love with you.” From this time Madame de Cir court began to be vtry kind to the pauper children of the village, the servants of the household, even the ; birds that hopped about the garden j walks. She was always distressed if >he happened to be unable to reader a service. This good will to- i ward everybody, made her the idol of the city. Though her complex- I ion was sallow, gray eyes small and ■unken, yet she held in devftion to her the greatest men of her time. Her unselfish interest in others made her, it is said, perfectly irre sistw.de. Her life furnishes a valu able lePSOa. The faith that looks forward is far. .Sober than the experience which iov.k» baekwatd. I You Will not be .Sorry For being courteous to all; For doing good to all men ; For speaking evil of no one ; For hearing before judging ; For thinking before speaking ; For holding an angry tongue ; For lieing kind to the distressed ; Fcr asking pardon forull wrongs; For being patient toward every ' body ; For stopping the errs to u tale | bearer; For disbelieving ino»t of the ill | reports.
