One of our churches has a some
what eccentric parishioner, who
often affords the congregation much
amusement. He lias a habit of ex
pressing his thoughts aloud w’hen
very much in earnest, never mind
where he may be. His entire
unconsciousness of having thought
aloud is irresistibly funny. Last
Sunday a late comer at church—a
young lady with voluminous skirts
—sought to pass him to get a seat.
As she did so she carried the gen
tleman’s hat, which was on the
floor, some distance. It happened
during a pause in the service, when
there came, slowly and distinctly,
and with an earnestness worthy of
the preacher, that unconscious ejac
ulation : “ Now—where—in—the
name—of—the—Lord—is—that—
girl—taking—^my—hat ?” — From
a Newport letter.
S oo K ish C haracteristics , by Paxton
Hood.—He must be a bold man who
will undertake to portray the character
istics of a Scotchman. He has gener
ally been found too hard a case, one who
could always hold his own against all
comers, and finally turn the laugh upon
his critics. If, however, the work is to
be done at all, there is not a man in
Great Britain, who is so well fitted for
the task as Paxton Hood. No man
knows them better.
He was near
enough to them to Know them intimate
ly ; he was far enough away to be able
to take in tlieir „grand proportions of
character. His wit, humor, sarcasm,
which abound in all his writings, are
apparently couoentrated in this. Some
of the anecdotes we have seen before,
but Mr. Hood tAlls them in such a
quaint way that we find a new interest
in them. The old as well as the young
will be amused and greatly edified.
