Catechising

A clergyman up-country who had appointed a day for the catechising of some of his congregation, happened to receive an invitation to dinner for the same day, and, having forgotten his previous engagement, he accepted it. Just as he was mounting Ms horse to depart he perceived the first of his class entering the garden, and the remainder coming over the hill, and at once became aware of the mistake he had made. Here was a fix. But the minister's ready wit soon came to his assistance. " What have ye come for, John ?" he asked, addressing the first comer. " Oh dee ye no remember sir, ye bad us come to be catecheesed?" " Oj> a y > weel, no to keep ye going further John, was it a horned coo or a hummel coo. that Noah took into the ark ?" " Deed, sir, I canna tell." " Weel, turn back and ask the ither folk the same question, and if they canna answer it bid them go home and find out.'

I Among sereral excellent speeches at th« dinner to Mr F. W. Chesson recently by members of th« National Liberal Club, perhaps the most striking wm Mr Stanley's little homily oa the "manhood** of England, from a Ciceronian text. "Now," he said, "that London is crowded with thousands of ** Cotoaiaifi." my thought goes back to the spectacle ef a few hundreds of people, poor, anxious, often even to despondency, apparently useless members of soetety, with nothing except a spark of faith left, crowded between the decks of emigrant ships. Then I tee," said Mr Stanley. " their little white tests spring up in some unknown and lonely pacts of the world; these gradually give way to log huts; then come the frame houses, and at last the towns which we call Melbourne, Ade« laide, Wellington, Cape Town, Toronto, Winnipeg j So now, when I want illustrations of greater than Roman " man* hood." I turn towards the English Colonies."
