' Tho adnntuges claimed are as follows: saving of weur and tear of ropea, im. proved ventilation of whip, and in creased speed. Qircker voyages may bo made, in conseqiionce of a vobsuI fitted with these musts being able-" to sail closer to tho wind.

God, because he al ways existed. What is,the most beau tiful ? Tho. world, because it is the work of God. What is the greatest of all things? Space, because it con-, tains all that is created. What is tho quickest of nil things f Thought, be' cause in a moment it can fly to the end of the universe. ' Whut is the strongest? Necessity,' because it makes men face all the dangers of lifo. "What islhe most difficult? To know yourself. What is the most constant of all things? Ilope, because it still remains with mun after ue has lost everything else. A traveler called lately, at night-, fall, at a farmer's bouso in Alabama; tho owner being from homo, and the mother and daughter being alone, they refused to lodge the traveler. .- " How far, then," said he, " is it to a bouse where a preacher can get lodging?" Oh 1 if you are a preacher," said tho lady, "you can stop here." , Accordingly ho dismounted, depos ited his saddle-bags in the house, and led his horso to tho stable. Mean vhilo the mother and daughter were debating tho point as to what kind of a preacher he was. "He cannot bo a Presbyterian," said one, " for be is not well dressed onoueh." 11 He is not a Methodist," said the other, "for his coat is not the right cut for a Molhodist." "If I could find his hymn.-book,'r said the daughter, "1 could Boon 'tell what sort of a preacher bo is." ' - And with that she thrust bcr hand into the saddle bags, and pulling out a flask of liquor, she exclaimed, " La! wothor, he's a hard shell Baptist." ' MiinmonN. In Justice's Conrt, before B.
