THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: -SUNDAY, MAY 17, 1874 PROF. SWING. fir, Koyes Closes His Argument for the Defense, prof. Patton Closes for the Prosecution. He Reiterates that Prof. Swing Does HNot Stick to the Confession of Faith. 2 And ;]!beret‘ore the Presbytery Must Find Him Guilty. The Prosecutor Out of Temper. MORNING SESSION. e Chicago Presbytery reassembled in the Tirst Presvyterian Church, corner of Twenty- first street aud Indisna avenue, the Rev. Arthur Mitehell in the chair. Tho attendance, 88 usual, o e. “;[:_ g,;:": counsel for Prof. Swing, resumed his srgument. He regretted that he should be obliged to occupy Tore time than he intended to st firet, but it wes necessary, in viewof the man- Ser in which the prosccator had presented the Jocumentary evidonce, having asked the Pros- prtery to adjudicate npon the case upon the srgumert, snd not upon the evidenco. Tho prosecator had cast ridicale npon Prof. Swing's P mone, ana, whilo be read in s dignified and yespectful manner from James Frooman Clarke's work, his manner in quoting from Prof. Swing A CONTEMPTUOUS AND ECORNFUL. Howsa reminded by this courso of a clergyman in Maeeschusetts who, to express his contempt for the Governor, in reading & thanksgiving Jamation from the pulpit, read: **John Emith, Governor. God save the Common- yealih (" [Laughter.] That expression showed dlearly to bis mind the manmer in which the Jocumentary evidence was presented to the Court by the prosecutor. To the garbling of it Dere and thero be had already referred. FAITH. The epesler then read from “Traths for To- Das,” to shorw the views of tho accused on Faith snd other doctrines, and that certain of them were assumed or bricfly stated, esying that, if bis teachings were heretical, there was moro tban one berctic in the Presbytery, and submit- ting whether the extracts quoted Ly the prose- outar were not misleading, and his inferedices to- taily anworty of o professor of theology. 'he Interior, unless they could gay that it, too, wea vagne and ambiguous, asserted that good works were the purpose of Faith, which was purslic] to the charge that Prof. Swing taught that Faith saved because it led to = hoiy life, because ho (Swing) spoke of morks s the des- tiny of Frith. What was the Inlerior coming t0? 1f they could not trust it, what and whom could they trust? [Laughter snd applause.] Prof. Swing used the word * Faith” in the re- formed sense of the term, and did not deny the doctrine of justification by Faith, as held by the Reformed Churches, as alleged by tho proseca- for. His rtatements in regard to God's sover- cignty were strong, mnequivocal, and uuam- biguous. THE DOCUMENTART LVIDENCE. ter buving read sbout two hours from #Jruthe for To-Day” and “David Swing's Sermons,” Mr. Noyes said he might extend tho resding indefinitely, but he felt that the docu- mentary evidence he had ‘precented was over- whelming, snd that, if there was any one. in the bodv who was not satisfied with it, neither would be be if one arose from tho dead. [Laughter.] He asked them to consider this evidence—to give it that weight to which it.was entitled, on sccount of the clear and upequivocal state- ments of : EVANGELICAL DOCTRINES which it contained. He knew that the Court Lad not fsiled to find i the passages read, the Evaogelical doctrines, snd thas ihey would not, in making up their verdics, be infln- enced by any fear of Prof. Patton's contempt or their inteiligence, for he had warned them 1a advance that, if thoy did find ‘evangelical doc- trinen in the sermons, he would believe that they did not know what these doctrines were. He (the speaker) had snswored, he thought conclu- sively, the challenge of the prosecutor, wherain be detied counscl for the defensa to point, in the sermons of Prof. Swing, to any clear and un- equivocal statement of ovangelical doctrines of the croes; and ho in return challeuged him (Patton),—deficd him to point to any passage in the sermony which, if eubmiited to an unpreju- diced 2nd intellizent maun, might ndt ba con- etrued by him, casily and haturally, as in con- formity with the doctrines of the croas. The opening statoments of his argument had been, as ho belioved, =bundantly proved by tho oral sand documentary testimony. Thore was othing in ibe indictment, from begioning to’end, o far es the specifications wers eoncerncd, except the inferences of the prose- cutor. Take these away, there was nothing left of the_compiaint and thoy ought never to have been sdmitted into the indictment atall. The eomplaint, on the very face of it, was defective throughout, either in substance orin form. The form was vague, and the substance was only ehadow caet by tbe dark thoughts which the prosecutor had entertained of Prof. Swing'e Ian- gusge. THE. ORAL TESTIMONT. Tho speaker theu briaily reviewed the oral tes- timony. The prosecutor had sbeolutely none, aud iu thiy respect the trial on his part was a farce. Dr, Pattorson’s testimony was distinct and emphatic to the effect that Prof. Swing had expleined to him his uso of the word “eclecti- cifm™ as an ** eclecticism of use;” yet the prose- cutoreaid {hat that was not ovidence, and at- tempted to impeach the verscity of the wit- Dezs. The ono aseumption upon which, as 3 basis or foundation, the prosecutor bad reared tho whole eplendid superstructure his argument, was that the respondent was & sz, To keep thefoundation nnder, and prevent ths argument from tumbling down into a Rhape- less ruin, 2ll risks were taken. The prosecutor bad undertaken to impeach the testimony of the Elders of the Fourth Church. Well he might, ginco it boro overrhelmingly ageinst him and hiscese. Ou hin (Patton's) theory, that they Bad heen fed on the porson of falso doctrine, he thought that Prof. Patton himself must admit that they ehowed themaclves to bo pretty eound 8ad healthy Christiane. It was bardly worth “?‘uh.- 10 be fed on the pure milk of religion, if {also teaching could make suca orthodox mem. Laughter.] ° Tho sermons from which Prof, atton eucked only the deadly poisons of false doctrines were the ones from which these plain, uncavilling men ex- traced tho foney of - trathe [Appisuso That which was deadly to him, was nourishing 1_‘: them, That which filled bissoul with trouble, dlled theirs with light and peace and joy in the Holy Ghoet.

Whero was tho bitterness of which tho prose- fator complained? It must te n him, and not In tho fountam of whose waters ho persisted in iking 80 copionsly. [Laughter.] The oral lesimony of the eldens hence be- ©o very strong, and, takem in _cou- dection with the documentars evidence, Anounted tot an absolute aemonstration. 1t Ehowed the impressions they reccived from the ‘;'A‘mflns. 82d it appearad that their impressions Jéze totally different from those Which Prof. 4atton received from reading them, or rather reading garbled portious of them. Where 728 the common-sense man who did not know that the best way to test the nourishing qualities of roast boof was to eat it, andnot'to anaiyze it ?

He did not egard it 8¢ generous on s pactof the prosecator to attempt to break 0wn the testimony of the elders by attempting B ebow thay they wwera incompetent as witnesses 2 sooounf oF prejlidise. There was no proof to - cuiated this slander upon support that allegation, and s it was utterly un- true, should not-be entertained s moment. 4 ! SHUFELDT.

Between the opening of the discussion in the Inferior and bringing of the charges, the prosecutor did not g0 to Prof. Swing and try to bring about a fra- ternal and doctrinal agreement. He had mot even felt moved to seek a conference with the elders of his church when he found himself wrestling with doubts 28 to Prof. Bwing's ortho- doxy, or ot a later dsy when he found his beart burdened with the fear that this loved pastor (Swing) was ot beart an unbeliever in evangel- ioal doctrines and a dangerous tencher. Every metns of private modiation should have been tried and exhausted bofore such a prosecution was entered upon. . TUE PEOEECUTOR'S ARGUMENT. Bfr. Noyes then tonched the prosecutor's ar- gument, saying it was sunpar&d by asgump- tions ond not by facte, and did mot challenge vory serious considoration. Tho sermons of Prof. Swing naturally and resdily admitted of a1 evangelical meaning, and they were full of Gospel teaching; and would not convey sny other than an evangelical meaning, except by torturing and perverting the language. Thers was not » minister in that or any other Presbytery who would stand for a moment the teat to which the prosecutor had subjected Prof. Bwing; not one of them who had not time and time. again uttered paragraphs substantially the eame in phraseology as those which any Unita- rian, or any person who beld to the Darwinian or Spencerian theory of development, might ut~ ter. Prof. Patton said he believed the Gospel. The Freo Religionist sxid the same. Wero they therefore allke? God forbid! And yet they Were, if using the same terms made men alike. It was asserted that Prof. Swicg used equivocal and ambiguons langusge. Strange, in all but one or two instances, the prosccutor knew what he (Swing) meant! [Laughter.] The counsel then referrcd to the principles which governed the reudering of a verdict, urgiog the jurors to make it up upon the evi- dence, aod not the arguments, with their minds unprejudiced aud uninclined to one side or the other. The Court then adjourned until 2 o’clock. e o AFTERNOON SESSION. TUpon meeting at the hour named, Prof. Patton not being prosent, other business was called for. MISCELLANEOUS. ) Mr. Wisnér said that, inasmuch as it had been amply proved before he Presbytery that the English langusge was a dangerous and inade- quate medium for communicating-thought, he moved that Gorman be substituted for it, and taught in the public schools, as it had no such dofects. [Laughter.} 3fr. Blackburn moved that & committeo be appointed to recommend the most desirable plan for taking & vote, when the proper time came. . This provoked somo skirmisbing, and Mr. M. Ely putled off his coat and proposed to offer & substituto and argue the question. The talk, however, was happily arrested by the appearance of Prof. Patton, the motion be- ing then lnid on the table. Mr. Noyes then went on with his argument, reading from the defendant's declaration to es~ tablish that he had, notwithstanding the prose- cutor’s claim, given distinct expression to his views on the doctrines of the Presbyterian Church. THE ISSUES INVOLVED, To say that the trial did not involve iesues be- tween the Old and New Schools was to say what every intelligent person know to be the reverse of the fact. It did bring them up, and those jgsues woro the only ones beforo the body and, under s deep sense of his responsibility to God. he would say that, if the rospondent wero to bo condemned on the platform which he (Swing) had laid down before them-—while he d not spoak in the language of threat, but only in the language of sorrowful foreboding and prophesy—he believed it would rend asunder again the Chureh which had so recently and so happily boen renuited. He.then quoted from Dr. Musgrave on the question of Liberty, showing that differences of opinion must of necessity be tolerated in the Church. IN CONCLUSION he called sttention io the principles which ehould govern the Presbstery in adjudicating the case. They must regard the rules that the more favorable rather than the Jess favorable construction should be put mpon the words of tho respondent, and that it was not right to charge any man with sn opinion which he dis- avowed. They should judge also by the defend- ant’s declaration which was that he did roceive tho doctrines, and the testimony of the elders which went to show that ho preached them. Some_discussion followed as to limiting the timo to be allowed the prosecutor to make his answer. A motion to adjourn until balf-past 9 o’clock Mondsy morning was lost, #s was one to Ppostpone the argument until the same time. [Applause.] THE BEPLICATION. Prof. Patton then commenced his replication. Ho said they should not lose sifht of tho ques- tions involved. It was whether Prof. Swing bad been faithful and diligent in maintsining the truths of the Gospel, and whether he sincerely received and adopted the Coufession of Faith 03 containing the syatem of doctrine ia the word of God. He affirmed in reference to both charges that he did not, in_despito of the argumeut for the defense, and 21l the more in view of the two declarations of the accused. Tho prosecutor proceeded to show that his po- sition was right, reading extracts from the ser- mons, and poloting out paseages which ho claimed showed that he did not preach the doc- trine of the Presbyterian Church. CONSIDER THE SOURCE. After reading one sentimen:, he remarked that if that had been uttered by Mr. Young (a Presbyter) he would know it was sound, because he knew bis theology; but uttered by Prof. Swing, he did not consider it sound, because he knew what his theology on other points was. [Laughter and bisses.] He admitted that ho (wing) dia uso Janguage which in some instan- ces had an orthodox sense; but taken in connec- tion with the context, and knowing what ko lieved with respect to the doctrines, ho should not believe, until Prof. Swing told bim squarely, that it was fto be understood in the Presbyterisn scnse. Not a single passage had been shown by the de- feneo which showed that Prof. Swing made use of unequivosal language respeoting tho person and tho deity of Jesus Christ. There was nothing in his sermons which warranted him in believing that Christ was God. TEMPER. Mr. Noyes interropted the speaker, and re- quested that in reading particular passages he also read the context. 5 Prof. Patton said he would not be interrupted. The Court could either hear him or adjourn and fet him go home. Mr. Carden wanted to know if the Moderator was not gomg to prevent spectators from hisving. ‘The Moderator said ho waa & very small man. [Groat lsughter.] . Barber romarked that tho Presbytery could holda sccret session, and be hoped that tho andience would control their expressions of sympatby or disspproval; it they did not, the Court would bo obliged to exercise its suthority and exclude them. : The prosecutor then conticued : He called the Court to witness, thut giving the passages of Prof. Swing's sermons, which were certaiuly equivacel to eay the least, tho most favorablo construction, oven allowing in certain passages thers were certain things which seemed to as- gume the doctrines of Pardon and Atonement, and Sacritice and_ Iegeneration in the sense in which Presbyterians understood them, it still remained true that not s kolitary passage had been produced which proved that %he cardinal doctrine of Faith was Leld by Prof. Swing. WHEREIN FAITHLESS. | The accused had been aufaitbful in thorespect that he bad given his approval to tho doctrine hich was commonly called a **modal _trinity ;" ond Mr. Noes, vith ail bis mgfiq\llt%r, )1:;51 not e allegation. @ (Swing) bad cir- set asido th leg! t.iw RS teian Chuzch and the Council of Nice, and gono so far as to put the sign of his spproval upon adoctrino which was invented to eave the Trinity and st tho samo time get rid of what wes called -the 4 contradiction.” Prof. Swing had said that he believed in Salvation by Faith. So did the Unitsrisn. Tho question he wanted suswered was, ‘Do you believe in salvation (justification) by Faith ss it is onder- stood by D'resbyterians ?” Tho generic ides of salvation in his (Swing's) ides was goodness. His preachiog meant nothing but that the effica- cr of Faith consisted in the fact thatit led a man 0 be hoiy personally, and led him to be holy a3 no other grace could ; snd it iwas, therefore, of all others entitlod par excellence to be called tha saving grace. They were saved by faith because it meant holiness. They were justified by holi- ness because justidcation meant holiness ; and, ginoe Faith made men holyin o sense in which pothing clse could, they were therefore justified by faith. Did Brother Barrett [the tempo: O{erk] believe that ? g REE ANOTHER HERETIC. Brother Barrett remarked that he did. [Laughter.] Prof. Patton said he wns not sound, as that was . not what Presbyterians believed. If the view of Prof. Swing of Justification by Faith was accopted, the whole fabrio of the doctrines of Grace would be capsized. His sermons on +“ Faith " and * Good Works * were no more in harmony with the Confession of Faith, that was the theology of the Council of Trent, or the the- ology of Dr. Horaco Bushnell, which was that Jesus Christ came into the world to show his sympathy for men. INEPIRATION. . He was not satisfied with Prof. Bwing's posi- tion on the subject of the Inspiration of the Scriptures. They did not believe that | in some ‘way inspired Mloscs _and David and others, but that the Bible was the infallible word of God—the only rule of faith and practice, and that it was infallible be- cause God sEuke throngh the mouths of those who wrote the books—that what they eaid God 8ud ; 80 thst they could eny with oqual propriety God wroto tho 109th Pealm or David wrote it. But onca let the people believe that they conld take achapter here and a chapter there out of the Bible, and say that this is not inspired—set up a standard os to what was wrd what was not in- spired—the Bible was to ail intents and purposes thrown to the winds, and Rationalism estab- lighed as the baels of faith. It was 1o be expected that men would differ in respect to some of the minor doctrines of tho Chaurch, but they ahould not differ as to the car- dinal doctrines—the authority of God's word. He maintained that Prof. Swing had made nt~ terances in his sermons which he cootra- dicted, the tendencies of which were to shake the faith of the people in tho authority sud in- fallible inspiration of the Bible. He had said that he believed in the ** Inepiration of the Beriptures,"—that God conld make s bad law, and that He did make & bad psalm, If they believed that, ho would not give a fig for thair ipspiration. They lost confidence in God when they imputed to Him the iden that He made a bad law and a bad psalm. Prof. Swing had not answoered the question, *‘Do you believe in the Plenary Inspiration of the Scriptures ?” and bad not eaid & word sbout tho Apocalypse. He had mado mo_such avowsl, and, until he did, he (Patton) would bold that he bad uttered statements and eutertained views respecting the Bible which were not in keeping with his ordination vows. A motion to adjoarn was lost. A WORD OF WARNING. Prof. Patton went on. He did not 886 how the Prosbytery, haviug promised to cefend the truth of God, whatever persecutions might arise on account of it, conld be loyal to the Church if they allowed Prof. Swing to continue in a conrse which, to say the least, was dangerous, If he (Swing) said he did bolieve in the doctrines, as they were taught in the Confession of Faith, the ackuowledged symbol of the Presbyterian Church, tho second charge would be disproved, but it still remained that he had taught false docirine, and it was the duty of the Presbytery to express ita decided disapproval of that teaching, and to require of lLim & retraction of those statements, a disavowal of the errors which it was alloged they contained, and en_avowsl of the doctrinos alloged to bo impugned; and for the Court &lso to expreas its sentimenrs on the snbject of his past unfaithfulness. LBT HIM LEAVE. There was no Old School theology or Now School theology, but there was the theology of the Confession of Faith. The distinction be- tween the actual Church and the historic Ckurch was adistinction which the Presbyterry, or at all events the Presbyterian Church, would never recognize even if there were such a distinction. Prof. Swing bad no right to call him- self a Now School Presbytertan, becaues tho New School Presbyterian Church nover belioved the doctrines which he hold, and never omitted to believe the dectrines which e had repudiated. Prof. Swing, having departed from the doctrines which differentiated the Proebyterian Church from other churches, would in logical consist- ency find a better home where bhis theology was more in harmony with his company. That was &, frank, honorable position for him to take, and there could bo no other. Another motion to adjourn was lost. Mr. Young hoped that as Prof. Patlon's wife and his friends were anxious lest he suould break down that the Court would consent to sn adjourn~ ment. BOGND TO FINISH. Prof. Patton snid he had talked eleven hours, and could hordly stand up, but as his friends had desired an adjournment on_account of his health, and it bad been denied, he would not take it now, but would close his argnment before he sat down. He had been brought up as an 0ld School Presbyterian [smiles and *“ Ah!” on the left) but he had been pastor of a Naw School church, snd the theology of the people he preached to was his theology. [Smiles aud “*Ah!” on the right.] The issno now on trial had never before existed in the Presbyterian Church, aud to assert the contrary was to assert Wwhat wos uotrne. Ho would admit that the Presbytorian Church wes not commit- ted to the ipsissima rerba of the Confession of Faith, but tho question was whether Prof. Swing held a theology wiuch was consistent with the Calvinistio system. Could be be coneidered as holding to that system when he had distinetly told them that ho had left behind him some of its leading doctrines, u2d his teaching showed that he had departed from Justification by Faith, which was the foundation of the system. If so, an atheist conld be considered as in good sand regular standing in the Christian Church. Ie did not wish it understood that he was saying that the Presbyterian Ghurch would not tolerate any- body who would ot admit the federal headship of Adam. The Presbyterian Church wonld not and could not live as an organization if its min- isters did not lovs her doctrines enough to stand by thom _and require one another to adhere to them and love them. TIE IESTE. The case was a typical on: nd, in settling it, the Presbytery must gire ity judgment upon the iteue whether the Presbyterian Church had a creed or whether broad-churchism without liaut wus to be the policy of the foture. In deter- mining it, they should leave Prof. Swing sud Prof. Patton ont, and view ihe evidence alone. The eyes of the Presbytorisn Church wore upon them. Never liad tliero been a time in her history when men looked more auxiously upon & judical proceeding than they did upon this one. Presbytorians thronghout the laud were asking Whether, when tho trial came, the Church would bo true to her staudards; whether the flag of Presbyterianism would be kept at the mast-head, and not brought to the deck. Every man in tho Presbytery was oxpected to o his duty, and whatever pain it might cost them, nod however ont mixgt be the struggle, if they found that Prof. Swing did not_believe the doctrines of the Confession of Faith, it would be their daty to eny, though they said it in grief, tlat he could not be a minister of the Presbyterian Church. Prof. Pattou having conciuded, the Presbytory adjowrned till Alondsy morning at 9:30. ————— The Origin of Some of Longicllow’s Poetry. From Lecture by James T. Fields. Itis slways interesting to know under what circumstances & poet has framed an immortal poom, or sonbet, or song. As I happen fo know something of tho origin and_birth of many of Longfellow's pocms, let ma divulge s few secrets in regard to them. The ** Pealm of Lifo” came into cxistence on a bright summer morning in July, 1838, in Cambridge, as the poot eat betwecn two windows at the small table in the corner of his chamber. It was a voice from' his inmost heart, and he kept it somo time in mannuecript, unvwilling to part with it. It expressed bis own feclings at that time, whon he was rallying from the depression of o deep aflliction, and be hid the poem in his own heart for many months. He was sccused of taking the famous verse, “Art is long and time is fleeting,” from Dishop's poem, but I heppen to kpow that was not in bis 1nind, snd that the thought came to him with 84 much freshness aad originality as if nothing bad been written before, * There is = reaper whoso name is deatt ™ eryetellized at once, withont effort, in ths poet’s mind, and be wrata It rapidly down, with Tears filling his cyes 2s ho composed it ** The Light of the Stars” wns composod as the poot looked out upon a calm and besutifal summer ovening, exactly suggestive of the poem. Tho moon, & little strip of silver, was just setting bohind Moot Auburn, and Mars was blazing in the South. That fine ballad, * The Wroex of the Hesperus,” was written in 1832. A violent storm had occurred the night before. and as the poet at smoking his pipe about midnight by the tire, the. mckes Hesperus came sziling into his mind. Ho weut to bed, but the him, snd ho could not elecp. He got np and wrote tho celobrated verses. ¢ Tho clock was striking 3,” ho said, *when I finished the last stanza.” - It did not come into his mind by lines, bat by whole atanzas, hardly csusing him an of- fort, but flowing without let or hindrance. One of the best known of sll Longfellow's shorter poemsis **Excelsior.” The word hsp- pened 1q catch bus eye lato one autumn_evening in 1841 on a torn piece of mnewspaper, aD straightway hus imagination took firo at if. Taking the firet pieco of paper st hand, which happened to be the back of a letter received that pight from Charles Sumoer, Longfellow crowded it with verses. As first written down, @ Excelsior" differs from the perfected and pub- em had geized lished poem; but jt shows in its oriinal con- ception a rush and glow worthy the ticme and tho author.

Hawthorne did not quite coincide with the idea, and handed the themo to Lougfellow, who saw at once all the essential qualities of & deep and tendes idyl. - Plnin Speaking. Bome interesting reminiscences of & famons family have becn unearthed in Paris, of which a correspondent of the Pall-Mall Gazelte writes as follows : Aun intoresting salo of sutographs has just takon placo horo, One of tho most curious let- ters disposed of was written oy Mme. de Com- Pan in the year VIL of tho Reptblic, to Josoph Bonaparte. It couteined such extraordinary Passagos as this: “ The citoyenne Leclerc en- tered my house six months 250, and bas made astonishing progress ; she can now read and write.” The lady in questton was Nliolann's sistor Pauline, who first married Gon. Leclere, who perished in St. Domingo, and who was after- wards better known as the lovely and rather dissolute Princess Borghese. It is strange Lo learn that the sister of the first captain of tho 8ge was, perhaps, unablo to sign her marriage contraet. Another Bonapartis! leiter waa quite s woll worthy of notice aa tha above, being ad- dressed by Lucien Douaparte to big unclo, Car- dinal Fesch. Tho Iauguage is not such as ehould have been used by & nephew to a prince of the Church. The Cardical, most likely prompted by Napoloon, had advised Lucien, who always exzhibited nn oxtraordinary amonnt of indopendence, to put away his wife, and Lucien replied: “I have been outraged you once more in o menner of which I hardly con- sidered you capablo. I bave enswercd mamma in detsils, being willing to suffer anything - from her. As for you, ceage this want of rcepect. Bo consistent nnd have somo noble fooling ; at leest have tho good sense not to assimilate mo to Jerome (father of tho present Prince Napoloon), nnd epare yourself the shame of your useless nnd cowardly advice ; i 8 word, leave off writing to me until reli and honor, which you tread under foot, Liave dissipated 'your blindnees; and, if you are dostined to remain such 2$ vou sppear in yoar lotter, at least hide the baseneas of your senti- ments under the purple, and make your way in silence along tho road of ambition, ~ Thess are my last counsely; they aro worth'more than yours, and I wish you cnough houor aud judg- mont to profit by them.

Sunday the clergyman, during his sormon, had occasion to iutroduce a quotation, and, a8 it was :Pme long, ho brought the volume with him, and when the time came he picked up the book and began to resd it. Wesalways sing the Old Inndred Dox- ology aftor sermon at our church, and Mr. Col- lamer. soeing the pastor with the book, thought tho time had coma, 80, while the minister was reading, he opeued his Lymn-book af the place. Just as tho clergymau laid the volume down, the msa sitting nest to Lr. Collamer bogan to yuro, and Mr. Coilamer, thinkiog he was about o sing, immediately broko out into Old Hundred at the top of his Yoice. As the clergyman was just beginning * Secoudly,” and 88, of course, thera was_porfact silonce in the ehurch, the effect of Mr. Collamer's vociferation was very startling. Dut the Eood old man didn® notice that anything wns the matter; so be kept right on aud sang the eniire verse throngh, When he concluded he observed that overybody clso seemed to be_quiet, excopticg a few who wwere laughing ; so ho leaned over and said out loud to the man who yawued, ** What's the matter with this congregation aayhow ? Why dou't they go home?” The man turned scatlet, and the perspiration broko out all over 1um, for be folt that the eyes of the congresa- tion were upon him, and Lie knew that ke would bavo to vell to make Mr. Coltamar hear. So he touchod his 11ps with his finger 03 a sign for the old man to keep quiet. But Mr. Coliamer mis- anderstood tho motion, ** Going to sing another bymo, boy? Allright!" and he began to fum- bie his hymn-book again. Thon the seston sailed up the sislo, and explained matters out lond to Mr. Collamer, and that gentleman sub- sided, while the minister proceeded with his dis- courso. The elders have written Mr. Collamer 2 noto roquesting him in the future not to join in the sacred harmony. The effect is too appar- ent upon the ribald boys in the gallery.—dfax Adeler. —_— ‘An Irish Legal Decision. The following story comes from Ireland : Trwo men baod @ quarrel in a lignor-shop. They ad- journed outside to settlo the dispute. The first Taan, being from Connaught, immediately seizod alump of stono and let fly at the head of his opponent, who dipped his hond and missed the stone, which went through au oxpensive plate- glass window, and did much damage. A Magis- trate was culled upon next morning to determine which of tho two shonld pay the cost. The evi- dence clearly showed that the aim wasa good one, and that if the second man bad not dipped his head ho would have been struck. *There- fore," snid the Magistrate, ** he must pay the damages, as it ia certain the first man dida't in- tend to injure the window, aud the window would not have been injured if it had not been for tho act of the secoud man.” Kleber and Bonaparte. The hithorto unpublished memorandum book in’ which Gen. Kleber daily wroto the thongbts and reflections which arose in his mind during the expedition to Egypt i appesring in the col: umns of & French nowspuper, Lonaparte is not over tenderly baudled by bis lioatensnt and un- fortnnate succesror in Egypt. *Is B. loved?" soys Kleber. *‘How could he be? He loves no- body. Hedoes not know Low to orgnnize or maoago; and, nevertheless, wishing to doovery- thing, he organizes and mansges. Henco con- fusion and waste, which reduc us to sbeolate waut in the midst of plenty. He has never any fized plan; all goes by akipaand jumps; the day rales the affawrs of the day. He pretends to be- lievo in destiny.” g —As two children wore playing together, littlo Jane got angry and pouted. Jolnny eaid to hor, “TLook ont, Jane, or I'll take s scat up thero on your lips.”" * Then.” replied Joue, quite cured of her pouts, “I'll laugh, and you'll fall off.” e AMUSEMENTS.
