FROM THE zarronronr.
THE BEGGAR AND BANKER.
. “Stand otit of my way,” said a rough, stir-
ly voice, under my window one day, as I sat
inusing over the bristling scenes below me, at
my . lodgings in Chesnut street.
“ Your honour will please to recollect,” re-
plied a sharp and somewhat indignant voice-—
“your honour will please to recollect that I
am a beggar, andhave as much right to the
road as yourself.”
“ And I’m a banker,” was retorted still
more grufly and angrily. '
‘Amused at this strange dialogue, I leaned
over the case, and beheld a couple ofcitizens,
iii the position which a pugilist would proba-
bly denotninate squared, their coutitcziatices
S()Ill(3\"l‘.2ll£ menacing, anti their persons pre-
senting a contrast at once ludicrous and in-
. structive. The one was a purse proud lordly.
mannered trian——app-arelled in silk, and pro-
tecting a carcase of nearly the circumference
ofa hogshead ; and the other a ragged and
dirty, but equally irnpudent and self-iniportant
personage ; and frotn a coriiparisoti of their
countenances, it would ltave puzzled the most
profound M. D. to deterrriine which oftheir
rottitidities was best stored habitually with
good victuals and drink. .
. Upon a close observation, however, ofthe
countenance ofthe Banker, I discovet'ed, al-
most as soon as my eye fell upon it, a litre be-
speaking something of humor and awakened
curiosity, as he stood fixed and eyeing his an-
tagonist; and this became more clear and
eotispicuous when he lowered his tone and
asked—“ How will you make that‘ right’
iippear.” “ How,” said the beggar, “ why
listen a moment, and I’ll learti you.—In the
first place, do you take notice that God has
given me a soul and body jtrst as good for all
the purposes of thinking, eating, drinking,and
taking my pleasure, as he has you—and then
you may remember Dives and Lazarus just
as ive pass. Then again it is a free country,
and here too, we are on an equality—for you
must know that here even a bcggar’s dog may
look a gentleman in the face ~‘with as niticli
indifference as he would a brother. land
you have’ the satne corrinioti master, are e-
qually free; live equally easy ; and are both
travelling the same journey, bound to the
same place, and both have to die and be bu-
tied in the end.”
“But,” interrupted the Banker,“ do you
pretend there is then no difference between a
beggar and a banker.”
, 1“ Not in the least,” rejoined the other, with
the uttiiost readiness ; “ not in the least as to
essentials. You swagger and drink wine '1
company of your own choosing—I st
and .drink beer, whichl like betterltha
-wine, in company wliicl-il like better
your company. You make thousands a
perhaps--I make a shilling perbaps—if on
are conte_nted,I atn—-we’re equally happy at
night. You dress in "new clothes ; I anijust
- as comfortable in old ones; and have no trou-
ble in keeping thcrii frotn soiling ; ifI have
less property than you, 1 have less to care a-
bout; it fewer friends, I have less frietidsliip
to lose ; and ifI do not make as great a fig-
ure in the world,I make as great shadow oti
~ the pavement ; I am as great as you. Besides,
my word for it, I have fewer enemies ; tiieet
with fewer losses ; carry as light a heart, and
Msiiig as many songs as the best of you.”
“ And, then,” said the banker, who had all
along tried to slip a word in r-dgeways, “ is the
. contempt of the world notliiug.”
" The envy of the worl,d"is as bad as its
contempt ; you have perhaps the one,and I a ‘
share of the other. We are matched there
And besides the world deals in this triat-
ter equally unjust with us both. You and l

But several years have since passed away ;.
and now both ofitliesie individuals have paid
the last debt of '_nature. They (lied as they
, lived, =tlie‘9ne a Banker and the other a Beg-
gar. I examined both _their graves-, when I
uoxtivisited the city. They were of Slmllilf
length and breadth; the grass grew equally
green above each ; and the stin looked down
as ‘pleasantly on the one as on the other. No
honors, pleasures, or delights, clustered round.
the grave ofthe rich man. No finger ofscorn
was poitited to that of tliepoor man. They
were both eqttallydesertetl, lotiely and forgot-
ten ! I thought too of the destinies to which
they had passed ; of that. state in wlii‘ch tem-
poral distinctions exist not ; where pride and
all the circtirnstauees which surround this life
never find admittance.‘ Then the distinctions
of time appeared indeed as an atom in the
sunbeam, cotnpared with those which are
made in that changeless state to which they
both had passed. ‘
The Entail.—A German Baron had in his
family ati entailed estate, which was to pass
into the hands of ariothct' person, if he should
not be married before he attained the age of
twenty-five years. The young Baron led a
very gay li_fe in Vienna, and did not trouble
his head about the Email. Amusements fol-
lowed in rapid succession, and ready cash be-
came more and more scarce with him ; btit
.ari ustiriotis tnoney-letider relieved his wants
from time to time. One day the latter came
to him in great alarm. “ Oh dear ! I suppo-
sed your lordship to be rich ; but I liavejust
learned that you are ruined, ifyou do not save
your entailed estate by a speedy marriage.”
“ Oh, confound the entail! Iliad entirely for-
gotten it.. Well, but how much time have I
left P” “ Ah! your lordship will be twetity-
five the day alter to-rriorroiv.” “The day af-
ter to-morrow ! How the time rutis aivay,iri
this charming city of Vienna! Well, it is
itnpossible for me to be married by the (lay
after to-morrow, so the estate mtrst go to the
devil.” “ But,your lordship, consider; what
will become of your bond? Your lordship is
acquainted with so many youngladies—surely
yoti might find one who ” “You dou’t
undcrstatid these matters, Isaac: some of
these young ladies would not suit me, and the
rriatrinias ofotliers would want time to consid-
er. So, good byeto the estate.” “Ah! your
lordsl.ip,I have sonietirnes seen two pretty
young girls peeping out ofthe window ofthe
house opposite otir hotel, perhaps something
may be done.” 'I‘he Baron, smiling, “ truly,
Isa-.rc, you are never at a loss ; the advice is
not so bad. Iwill rttn over and ask the mo-
ther foroné of her daugliu-.rs.” No sooner
I said than dotie: our Baron runs across the
street into the house, ascends to the Ed floor,
and rings the bell. The widow opens the
door. “.VIadam,” begins the Baron, “ per-
haps you know me.” “ We ktiow tliatyou
lodge in the hotel opposite.” “ You have two
dau§£litei's,l believe P” “ Yes.” “ Is the eld-
est at liberty ?” “ She is engaged.” “ Ah !
Itrcrrible !—and;the youngest P” ‘‘ Is notyet
engaged.” “ Heaven be praised ! Madam,
you tiitist give her in marriage to me to-mor-
row, and save my estate.” The lady thought
the young man was a little cracked ; however
he explained iii a few words the singttlzirity of
his situation. The lady was, in fact, flattered
by the proposal ; she begged only the day to
consider and to niakejinquiries ; and the next
morning the Baron led her daugliter to the
altar: and, espying Isaac, on his return from
the church, called otit to him, “ Be comforted,
Isaac : the estate is safe.”
flnecdotc 0f.lIr. Wcbsfcr.--\Ve once witnes-
sed a striking effect produced by Mr. Daniel
I’Vebstcr.. In the trial ofan important catise
at the United States Circuit Court iti Boston,
a shuffling witness fell into theliatids oftVlr. \V.
for cross examination. After eudcavoring in
vain to bring liitn to a direct answer, and while
he was exhibiting the utmost effrotimry, and
parrying the questions of the counsel as if for
his own amusement, Mr. Webster paused, and
fastening his eye on that of the witness, who
seemed paralysed by the look, he exclaimed,
“ witness, the oath of (iod is upon you l”—
'I‘he man sunk upon his seat as ifa dagger
had passed through him, and alrriost immedi-
ately rising, exclaimed “I will tellalll” And
he did tell all and a very different story frotii
the one he had before told.—I’rovidence Jour.
A higliwayiiian, named Bolland, confined
in Newgate, sent for a solicitor‘ to know how
he could defer his trial ; and was answered,
“ by getting an apothecary to ninke affidavit
ofliis illness." '1‘liis was accordingly done iii
the following manner: “ The depouent verily
believes, that if the said .I'.inie.=. Bollatid is o-
bliged to take his trial at the ensuing sessions,
be will be iti imminent danger ofhis life.”-
which the learned Judge on the bench an-
ered, “that he verily believed so too! I”
Gratitude to Heaven.--At a late meeting of

argtinietit with the lollowing- illustration :-
“ lfyou look to the hens, they never so much
as take a drink of water without raising their
bills to Heaven in token of gratitude ;” and
then added, “ Oh l that we were all hens!”

./Ilrdenf Spirits and Tobacco.——-The follow-
ing Anecdote was comtnunicated for the A-
merican .’l‘ract Magazine by a Clergytnan
iti Massaclitisetts. '
About eight or nine years ago, I procured
for distributiori among mypeople, one hun
dred of Rush’s Treatise upon the “ Effects of
Ardent Spirits.” Among those to whom they
were distributed, was a female of colour, who
was often observed to be under the influence
ofintoxicating liquors. She was a person or
Iuncoriunoii slirewdness, and had a great in-
clination for readiuu. Sometime after slit-
received this Tract, she called at my house,
'in my abseiice, and left with my wife a tract,
which she requested that lwould read, and
give my opiriioti as to its correctness. It wax
" Adam Cl~arke’s Serious Address to Chris
I I~(‘".§“‘-
bacdo, lint if she could be magdeto belie
wasgsinful, as Mr. Clarke represented{i,L
she would certainly lay it aside. ,-4’I‘of‘ ‘l
h_e’r;'thiri‘d, she wished for the opgingion“
ti"ii‘t‘iist‘er,-in which she professagl to r _
tire’: confidence. W ll8ll:[lte‘Irj_i'.!.i:1 was present-
ed to me on my return, with_t'h‘e .a‘ccbr‘n_pany.-
ing message, it was not difiicultto tiriderstarid
the meaning. I niyselfhad been in tliehabit
of using tobacco for many "years, bo_tli by
chewing and smoking. I had already expe-
rienced many struggles in’ my own mind in
relation to the practice asyproductiveof evils,
and not very seemly for a Christian minister;
but like most others‘ indulging sitnilar liabits,
had not been able to come to‘au effectual res-
olution to desist. - I read Dr. Clarke’s address
ti ith great attention, and pleasure, and in ftill
view ofthe matitier in which it had come into
my hands. In addition to the convictions
to reflect, that it was presented td trie by one
who acknowledged my kindness in furnislting
her with arguments for reformation as to the
use ofardent spirits ; that we should undoubt-
edly meet at some future day, when the sub-
ject ofthe Tracts which We .lld(l excltanged
would be cuuversed upon ; and ifl had not
quttted a practice which I cotild not but ac-
knowledge to be a bad one, after attending to
the argtiuieuts of Doctor Clarke, the inquiry
would come with ill grace from rue, whether
she had been benefitted by the Tract on Ar-
dent Spirits. Iaccordingly took my tobacco
from my pocket, and threw it out of my wiri-
dow, and have never used a mite since. I am
happylo add, that Dr. Rttsh’s Tract was e-
qually effectual npon my African friend. She
declares, and I believe with truth, that she has
drunk no ardent spirits since reading Dr. R.
I feel myselfunder great obligations for the
very appropriate return ofa Tract which [so
much needed. . In consequence ofthe use 0“
tobacco, I had been foryears iii a low debili-
tated state of health. Tobacco destroys the
inclination for food— causes indigestion and
costlveness, especially to those who are accus-
tomed to a sedentary life.

plaiuing of debility, faintness at stotnacli, &.c.
upon whom Ihave charged the sin ofthe ex-
cessive use of tobacco, and I have generally
received an acknowledgenient of the fact.
The subject ought to be brotight before the
Christian conimuuity in a serious mariner.-
'l‘liousatids like myselfonly need to meet pro-
per retnonstrances, in a proper way, and they
will no lotiger defile their pockets with this
poisonous weed. 'Wlienevera rriinistcr who

Breach of Proim'sc.—At a Court of Com-
ntoti Pleas, lately held at '1‘aunton, Massachu

gainst the Rev. Augustus B. Reed, 37.’) dollars
for breach ofproniise of marriage. Our sober

their gallantry even ifoccasionally conipelled
to lay a small tax upon the public teachers of
constancy, virtue and religion.
Lord .N'urlmry vs. .’V"ewspapers.——-On the
opening ofthe Assizes for one ofthe Irish
counties,_Lord Norbury, it is stated, actually
congratulated the grand jury that no newspa-
per was printed in their county ; and hoped
they would use their iufluerice to prevent any
being established. To this circumstance be
attributed the tranquil state of the county ! l
The English and Irish currency are to be
assitiiilated by act of Parliament; a measure
frotn which very beneficial consequences for
Ireland are expected.
FOR"1‘XIE c.szr~:'r'rr:.
"We have heard it said,arid often reiterated,
that the Church is persecuted by the world;
that the riiore zealous and sincere is the chris-
tiati, the more obiioxions is the man ;that the
service of the Lortl is flouted, and that reli-
gious people are oppressed. Now it appears
very plain that public opinion pays all defer-
ence to religion, and religious teachers. IVho
are more honorable than those who ttiitiister
at the altar? None. Where is the individ-
ual actually exhibiting the graces ofthe chris-
tian character, by his patience, meekness, and
littrriility ; who passes by provocation, injury,
and contempt in silence, and in this way
briugeth forth the fruits by which the Lord
reqttires it to be manifest before the world ;—
where shall we find such a person, who is not
exalted in the estimation of society? No-
where: and so it ought to be. '
