TOOK JACK. The following account is given by the Rev. Leigh Richmond, as having been related by a minister in a meelinir in the British and Foreign Bible Society: A drunkard was one day staggering in drink on the brink of the sea. His little son by him, three ) cars of age, being verv hungry, solicited him for something to oat. The miserable lather, conscious cf his poverty, and of the criminal cause of U, in a kind o! rage, occasioned by his intemperance and despair, hurled the little innocent into the sea and made off with himself. The poor little sullerer, finding a floating plank bv his side in the water, climii to it. " The wind soon wafted

him ar.d the y hv.s.i into tne se A Rrsth discove red man-of-war, passing o . the eiank and child! and a sailor at Uie. r.. oi m o ;i no. , ed into the se;:, and brought him 0:1 board, lie could inform them little more than that his name was Jack. They gave him the name of poor Jack. He grew up on board that man-of-war, behaved well, and gained the love of all the officers and men. lie became an officer of the sick and wounded department. During an action of the late w ar, an aged man came under his care, neaily inn dying slate, lie was all attention to the suli'eiing stranger, but could not save bis life. The aged stranger was dung, and thus addressed this kind young officer, 'For the great a' tent ion you have shown me, I give you this only treasure that 1 am possessed of. (Presenting. him with a Bible, bearing the. t;imn ol the British and Foreign Bible Society.) It was given me by a lady; has been the means of my conversion; vnd has been a great comfort to me. Read it, and it will lead you in the way you should go." lie went on to confess the wickedness and profligacy of his life, before the reception of his Bible: and, among other enormities, how he once cast a little son, three years old, into the sea, because he cried to him for needed food. The young officer inquired of him the time and place, and found here was his own history. Reader, judge if you can, of his feeling, to recognise in the dying old man, his father, dying a penitent under his care 1 And judge of the feelings of the dying penitent, to find that the same young stranger was his own son, the very son whom he had plunged into the sea; and had no -1 . i -i r : ! ; . . ?' i-1 r. J idea but that he had immediately perished. A description of their mutual feelings will not be attempted. The old man soon expired in the arms of his son. The latter left the service nnd became a pious preacher of the Gospel. On closing this story, the minister in the meeting of the Bible Society bowed to the chairman, and said, "am poor Jack" SINGULAR STORY. A young nun in France, who had been some time enamored of a gaycavalier, resolved on scaling the walls of the convent to be united to her admirer. Love is violent, even in the breast of one who wears the veil, and the young lady contrived a most ingenious scheme to accomplish her wishes. She acquainted the cavalier by means of a communication through the gra ting, that she had resolved upon break ing her bonds, and enjoying liberty wu, mm, x,e tuppoteu inai mat i e resolution was never likely to be reahzeu, inasmucn as mere appeareu to many difficulties thrown in the way. But what will not love effect'' She . pointed out a spot, through her letters, wheieshe would meet the cavalier on -n certain night, directing him to have swift horses in attendance, and leave all the rest to her care. She acquainted him that she would execute her plan, and no one would ever know that she had relinquished a religious life. It appeared to him a 013 story how she could bring this about, and lie was anxious to know the scheme she had in agitation; but of this she declared he must remain ignorant until it was completed. One of her companions having died about that lime, and hav ing just been interred, she boldly entered the tomli where the body was placed, and conveyed it to her own cell, where she placed it upon her own couch, having first put upon it some of her clothing. She then set fire to the drapery of the room, and by means of a rope ladder escaped from the convent, and joined her lover at the appointed place. The fire soon alarmed those who were in the convent, and the cell was presently crowded with the sisterhood, who contrived to put out the (ire but not before it had so disfigured the dead body, that no one suspected it to be any rjthor than lhat of the nun who li e) contrived, to escape. They mount-

ed her unhappy fate, supposing that she had died by the tire, and prayers were offered op for her soul's repose. This ingenious but dangerous scheme succeeded, and her honor was unsullied. The cavalier engaged himself as a merchant, and acquired considerable property, having previously married his intrepid admirer.
