One day, driving the missing horse's male, he went to a stable where horses were sold at auction. As he wee driving up to it, bnt still some distance away, his horse grew nneMV and gave a loud whinny, which is moment after wm answered by a whinny from the shiblo.

My horse is in that stable! ezelaimed tlia man. He got out of his wagon; went in, mid there to he snre was his stole horse. The animals seemed overjoyed to meet tacit other, whinnied back aud forth, rulbril each other's nesks, and indulged in all the demonstrations uf eqnine affection. Now, how do you suppose the horse nuliidc knew that his mate inside that stable Was it scent, or instinct finer than tlmt with whjcli human being are endowed We mii not tell. Christian Register.

THE LORDB PRAYER. The following iuterMtfng anecdote is told of Mr. Booth, the American Tragedian: Booth anil acr-eral friends had been invited to (line with an old gentleman in Baltimore, Maryland, of distinguished kindness, urbanity, and piety. Tho host, though disapproving of theatres mul theatre going, had heard so much of Booth's remarkable powers that curiosity to sec the man, had, in this instance, overoome all his scrnplca. After dinner wm over, lamps lighted, and the company reseated in the drawing ronm.somo one rcinested Booth a a itariiculur favor, and one which all present would, doubtless, appreciate, lo rtml tihiHtl Tit LcnTs I'rngrr." Booth expressed his ready willingness to afford them this gratification, mul all eyes were tn rmal expectantly upon hint.

Booth rose slowly anil reverently from hie chair. It was wonderful to watch the play of emotion that convulsed his countenance. He became deathly pale, anil his eves, turned tremblingly upwards, were wet with tears. As yet he hail not apoken. The silence could bo felt.

It be- came absolutely painful, until at last the f)iell was broken if by an electric shock, as the rich-tom tl voice, from white lips, syllabled forth, "Our Falhtr hick art iu Amiys, with a pathai and fervid solemnity that thrilled all hearts. He finished. The silence continued. Not a voice was hesnl nor a musole moved in his utomsh- ed audience, until, from the corrrr of the room a suld ted loh wan heard, and the old gentlemin(their host) stepiKil forth with streaming eye and tollering frame, and seizing Booth hy the hand, 'said lie. in broken nerents, yon have afforded me a pleiure for which inv whole future life will feci grateful.

They were loathe to hare the clear waters of tie river- i-nius'il in the fruitful little valley that waa hemmed in by hills and mountains. Well they kner that the lime was drawing near when inexorable fate would oomnel them to turn tlieir backs on lhelr old Iii.iius and trndgo toward the vetting siiii, but they dreaded to make the change. The lime came, however, when the westward movement was ilpioat lmieruiivo. It was decided that the tribe should migrate to the headwaters of the stream, full fifty miles beyond the limit of white aet-tleinent.

But few friendly Indians, who were an tip best of terms with the whiles, refused to heed the uamniaiid of the chiefs to move westward. This bred venge' ful feelings on the part of their kindred. The advance line of civilization at this time wm the mouth of Lycoming creek, now within tic limits nf Willinmsport. At the bate of thr mountain lived a young Indian named Fleet Foot, who made a fair living by hunting end fishing, assisted b) the handiwork of his young stpiaw, lio made handsome baskets that were sold to thr settlers- Both Fleet Font and his wife, Minnawaqun (Sparkling Water,) were remarkably flue trpps of tic Indian of tliuse days, hut they hail a little papoose that wm a wonder and a delight to all the whites in I lie sparse settlements.
