The greatest rogâ€" I ularity and attention to my interests, markâ€" | ad his business habits, and this without disâ€" | play, for his quiet and bhumble depoztmenti was from that time remarkable. ; "At length finding his conduct invu‘i-‘ ably marked by the utumost openuess and plain derling, my confidence in him was so far restored that on a vacancy ocâ€" curring in a position of greater trust and emolament than the ome lic hud hitherto filled, [ placed him {a it, and never had I | the siighest reasou to repent of the part I had acted toward him. ~Not only had the pleasure of reflecting that I had in all proâ€" bability saved a fellow creature from & conâ€" tinued course of vice and cunseqneut misâ€" ory, and afforded him the opportunity af | becoraing a respectable man and usefal member of society but I had gnined for myself an indefatigable seryantâ€"a faithfal and constant friend.. For years he served me with the greatest fidility and devotion. His character for rigid, nay, even serupuâ€" lous honesty, was so weil known that "as |, Ll::most as Smith" became a proverh among his requaintances. Ono morning I inissed | hi from his accustomed place, and upon |, injuiry lenrued that he was doetained at ( home by indisposition. Several days elapeâ€" ed, and still he was absent; and upon callâ€" 1 ingat his house to engnire after him, I found | 1 the family in great distress on his account. | ; His complaint had proved typhus fever of a very malignant kind. . From almost the + commencement of his attack he had, as | j his wife (for he had been sometime marriâ€" ; ad) informed me lain in & state of total unâ€" ' "I eannot now," he continued, "prove how deeply your forbearance has touched me; time alone can show that it has not been misplaced." He left me to resume his duties. The poor fellow was deeply affected. In a voice almostinarticulate with emotion he acknowledged his guilt, and said that havâ€" ing frequently seen me roceive the money without counting it, on being trusted with it himself the idea had flashed across his mind that he might easily abstract some without incurring suspicion, or at r.\_ll events without there being sufficient eviâ€" dence to justify it : that being in distress, the temptation had proved etronger than the power of reistauce, and he had yielded. J i "Itis vain" I replied, to attempt to imâ€" | pose unpon me or to endeavour to cast susâ€" | picion upon one whose charncter, for the | strictect honesty and undeviating integrity is so well established. Now I am perfectly convineed that you have taken this money, avd at this :moment it is in your possession j but I think the evidence against you would Lbo thought anfficient to justity me in disâ€" missing you immediatly from my service, but you are a very young man ; your conâ€" duct bas keen hitherto perfectly oonect,} and I am willing to afford you an cpporsunâ€" ity of redeeming the past.

"It is atrange," said I looking steadily at him. "Bat this money is iocorrect, and it is the first time T have found it so," He changed countenance and bis eye fell beâ€" fore mine ; but he answered with tolerable composure, "that it was as he had received "From whom" said I did you receive this money ?" He replied "From Mr. â€"â€"," naming my confidential elerk. "‘In the outset of my business career," said he, "I took into my employment a young man to fill the position of under clerk ; and according to & rule which I had laid down, whenever a stranger entered my services his dutics were of a nature to inâ€" volve »s little responsibility as possible, until a sufficient time had elapsed to form a correct estimate of his character. ‘This youug man whom I shall sall Smith, was of a respectable family. He had lost his father, and had a mother and sisters in some way dependent on him. After he had been a short time in my imployment it happened that my confidential clerk, whose duty it was to receive money from the bank for the payment of wages, being prevented by an unforseen occurrence from attendiug at the proper time, sent the sum required by Smith. My confidence was so great in my head clerk, who had been long ’ known to me, that I was not in the babit | of regularly counting the money when ' brought to me ; but as on this occasion it | had passed through other hands I thought ! it right to do so. Therefore calling Smith back as he was leaving the counting house I desired him to wait a few minutes, and proceeded to ascertain whether it was quite | correct.

The Latest bl Josh Billings. My friends, I am an old man. During a 'lung and eventful career in business, I have had intercourse with almost every , variety of temper and disposition, and with many degrees of talent, but have never found reason to swerve from the principle } with which I set out in life to temper justâ€" ice with mercy. _ ,Such was the story of our friend. And I beheve there was not one out of that comâ€" pany but returned home more disposed to judge leniently of the failings of his fellow creatures, and, as far as lay in his power to extend to all who might fall into temptaâ€" tion that mercy, which under similar eir cumstrances, he would wish shown to himâ€" self, feeling shat it is more blessed to give than to destroy."

We are told that there is â€"more joy among the angels of God over one sinuer that repenteth than over ninety and nine just persons that need mno repentance. With such a joy as we may imagine theirs did I rejoice over poor Smith, as I closed his eyes, and heard the attendant minister in fervent tones exâ€" claim : ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the | Lord ; yea, saith the spirit, for they rest| frowm their labors and their works do follow | them." | _ "That" eontivued the kind old man, looking on us with glistening eyes, "‘though mixed with sorrow, was one of the happiest moments of my life.

Tlnn! turning to his fumily he said : "My beloyâ€" j ed wife and children 1 entrust you without , fear z0 the care of that heavenly parent who said ; "Leave the fatherless children unto me and I will perserve them alive, and let thy widows trust it me."

As soon as he perceived me he motioned for me to approach near him, and taking my hand in both of his, he turned toward me his dying countenance full of gratitude and affection, and said, "My dear master, my best earthly friend I Lave sent for you furnishes t 4@ +4 are trying to git to wife but he the ; 2. The ingenious interrogatory of lawâ€" , | yers.â€"From a lack of intellectual resources § there are lawyers who fail to take in all _ | the aspects of a question, who sLow little , | or no skill in the examination of witnesses , | on it and who never go boyond what lies , | on the surface or what is inere comtmon place. The great lawyer on the contrary, | possesses the power of fertile invention in | the examination of wituesses,subjects them | to a series of searching questions and ferâ€" | rets seerets out of them, notwithstanding | their effort to conceal them. He is besides wilty in the examintaion of witnesses.â€" On one occasion the noted criminal lawâ€" yer of Hartford, the late Charles Chapman, was trying a case in which a Baptist minisâ€" ter, whom he kuow, appeared as a witness. | On taking the stand Mr. Chapman asked him to state his name. After it had been given h« inquired what his profession was. ! The divine replied in a tone of affectation : "An humble candle of tke Lord." "Ah ‘ ] a dipped candle, I presume, sir," remarkâ€" ed Mr. Chapman, convulsing the court and spectators with laughter, Here the repartee of the lawyer was piquant and told with great effect against the poor theologian ; | but the weapous, which he uses to worn | evidence out of witnesses,sometimes recoil back on himself with great force.â€"A wellâ€" known barrister at the criminal bar who prides himself npon his skill in erossâ€"examâ€" ining a witness, had an oddâ€"locking genius upon whom to operate. "You say, sir, ‘ that the prisoner is a thiel?" "Yes, sir, ‘enuse why, she confeés=cd it." _ "And yon ' also swear she bound shoes for you subseâ€" ; quent the coufession ?" "I do, sir.";, "'I‘lwu,"";vinu a sagacious look at the 4 court, "we nre to understand that you emâ€" ‘ 1 ploy dishonest people to w ork for you, even P after their rascalities are known ?" “0[|' course ; how elso conld I get assistance | P tr in a Iawyer?" ‘The barrister said, ] $ "stand down." ; What the repeated interrogatories of the examining magistrates had failed to elicit from the murderer was forced from him by the eloquence of the barrister. "‘There," he cried, "sat your father, quietly reading the paper, near the window. He could not see who came into the room. You paused oue moment, and then raised the hatchetâ€"" *Yes, yes!" cried Benoit, "that‘s it; that‘s how I did it !" him. M. Chaix d‘Est Ange resolved to emâ€" ploy one of the most startling and dramatâ€" ic figures of rhetoric ever used in a court of law. Turning to the prisoner he placed the scene of the murder in vivid and strikâ€" ing language before him. sion even from the criminal himseltâ€" Monsieur Chaix d‘Est Ange was one of the greatest lawyers of France and his greatest trinmph at the bar, and one of the greatest trinudphs ever obtained at the bar, was achieved in the case of a man callrd Benoit, whom he was prosecuting for parâ€" ricide.

Brimstone kills every specie of fungus in man, beast and plant in a few minutes. Instead of spitting out the gargle, he recommened the swallowing of it. In extreme cases, in which he had been called just in the nick of time, when the fangus was too nearly closing to allow the gurgling, he blew the sulphur through a quill into the throat, and atter the fungus had shrunk to allow otf it, then the gargling. He neverlost a patient from diphtheria. _ If a patient cannot gargle, take a live coal, put it on a shovel, and sprinkle a spoonful or two of ilour brimstone at a, timme upon it, and let the suffsrer inhale it, holding the head over it, and the fangus will die. If plentiâ€" fully used, the wholo room may be filled almost to suffocation; the patient can walk about is it, mhaling the fumes, with doore and windows shat.
