Michell conducted to The Trials and Final Reward of an English Curate In the Eighteenth Century. Extracts From a Diary Which Tell a Diémal Tale of Privation. A great deal is heard from time to time about the underpaid clergy. It has been recently said_by an English writer that ‘‘there are many clerks in holy orders who receive less than clerks in linen draper’s shops.’’ This is especially true in Europe, where the clergy, or at least the curates, are paid such miserably poor stipends that but for the generosity of the parishioners they. could not live. In the United States, too, the clergyman, usually a college bred man of talents and refinement, receives a salary “altogether out of proportion to his calling and his ability. This remark does not apply to the clergy in the large cities, to many of whom are paid very large salaries. In New York city, for example, it is said that there are 100 ministers who receive salaries of $10,000, and many of them have rectories or parish houses free in addition. But in the country towns, east and west alike, the minister who gets $2,000 is a rare exception. Many, perhaps the majority, do not receive as much as $1,000. While the.reflection may not prove of tangible benefit to these underpaid servants in the highest of callings, still it is interesting to know that in a social respect consequent upon these conditions, the clergyman of. today is vastly . better off than the chaplain or curate of acentury ago. In point of abject poverty there are no vicars of Wakefield today, nor anychaplains who figure as jesters or buffoons, as did many of the more fa¥ored ones of Goldsmith’s day. ‘ : The following extract from The Gentleman’s Magazine of 1766 shows how poor was the lot of the curate of that time: : ‘*Monday—Received £10 from my rector, being one-half year’s salary; obliged to wait a long time before my admittance to the doctor, and even when admitted was never once asked to sit down or refresh myself, though 1 had walked 11 miles. _{tem—The doctor hinted he could have the curacy filled for £15 a year. q ‘Tuesday—Paid £9 to seven different people, but could not buy the secme-as-a great bargain, my wife want-_ ing a petticoatabove all things,-and neither Betsy nor Polly having a shoe to go to church. : f ~ “*Wednesday—My wife bought a petticoat for herself and shoes for her two daughters, but unluckily, in coming home, dropped half a guinea through a hole which she had never before perceived in her pocket and reduced all our _cash in the world to half a-crown. [tem—Chid my peor woman for being afflicted at the misfortune and tenderly advised her to depend upon the goodness of God. Fe Z “Thursday—Received a note from the alehouse at the top of the hill, informing me that a gentleman begged to me on pressing business. Went and found it was an unfortunate member of a strolling company of players, who was pledged for sevenpence half penny. In a struggle what to-do. The baker, though we had paid him but on Tuesday, quarreled with us, to avoid giving any credit in.future, and the butcher gent us word that he heard it whispered how the rector intended to take a curate who would do the parish duty at an inferior price, and therefore, though he would do anything to serve me, advised me to deal at the upper end of the town. Mortifying reflections these, but a want of humility is, in my. opinion, a want of justice. The Father of the universe lends his blessings to us, with a view that we should relieve one another, and we consequently do no more than pay a debt when we perform an act of benevolence. Paid the stranger's reckoning out of the shilling in my pocket and gave him the remainder of the money to prosecute his journey. ‘‘Friday—A very scant dinner, and pretended therefore to be ill, that, by avoiding to eat, 1 might leave something like enough for my poor wife and children. . told my wife what I had done with the shilling; the excellent creature, instead of blaming méfor the action, blessed the goodness of my heart and burst inte tears. Mem.— Never to contradict her as long as 1 live, for the mind that can argue like hers, though it may deviate from the more rigid sentiments of prudence, is even amiable for its indiscretion, and in every lapse from the severity of economy performs: an act of virtue, 6uperior to the value of a kingdom. “‘Saturday—Wrote a sermon, which on Sunday . preached at four different parish churches, and came home excesno more money than twopence half penny in the house, but you seo the goodness of God! The strolling player whom . had relieved was a man of fortune, who accidently heard that . was as humane as . was indigent, and from a generous eccentricity of temper wanted to do me an essential piece of serv: ice. 1 had not been an hour at home when he came in, and declaring himeelf my friend put a £50 notein my . band, and the next -day presented me with a living of £300 a ORR An Indian's Diplomacy.

Pocket FOSTER’S FORECAST. Cold Waves. St. Josspu, Mo., March, 2.—Foster’s last bulletin gave forecasts of the storm waves to cross the continent frem March 7th to llth and the next will reach the Pacific Coast about the 11th, cross the western‘mountains by the close of the 12th, the great central valleys from the 13th te 15th “and the Eastern States about the 16th. This will be a dangerous sterm, and will probably develop tornadoes. ‘The aurora will make an unusual display and telegraphic lines will have difficulty with electric storms, © A warm wave preceding the storm will be unusually warm and following it a drop in temperature from twenty to. forty degrees may be expected. The. warm wave will cross the western mountains about March 11th, the great central valleys about the 13th and the Eastern States about the 14th. Thecool wave will cross the western mountains about-the 14th, the great central valleys about the 16th, and the Eastern States about the 18th. ‘Lhe Leavy rains of tais storm will notbe extensive but concentrated. «Rains will be more general the first and last ten days of the month than during the intermediate ten days. Died From His Injuries. Harry, infant son of William and Sarah Green, died this forenoon, death being the result of injuries-received yesterday by falling into a tub of hot water.

The Orleans on a Paying Basis— New Mill. Grass Valley Union: That the Orleans mine wiil develop into one of the best paying mines in this distriot is a certainty. Acting Superintendent Brockington informs the Union reporter that five stamps of the Em-/} pire mill are constantly working on ore from the Orleans, Tne reck pays over $25 a ton, which is very sdtiafactory indeed. The mine is paying its own way, and should the company feel disposed after this month’s clean-up they could declare a divideud. This } will not be done, however, for the reason that the money will be expended in building a five-stamp mill—to which five stamps will be added as soon as they are found necessary. The Powning, or main chute, is now being worked. it’s “a Curious World. We find the following in the Stockton Mail: A while ago an evangelist remarked in~ the course of a sermon delivered in Grass Valley: ‘Man isa failure. Ged said so.” It follows, of course, that the Almighty should be more careful about the quality of the work He does, and. not make so many b'unders, What a preposterous idea it is! What & conception he’who uttered it must have of the One who ‘‘huldeth creationin Hishand! ” Consider such a fellow going-about and posing as a religious guide and moral _philosopher! Let a thinking being once believe that “man is a failure,” and nothing remains for him but atheism, fora God who errs and blunders and makes failures is no God; he is . simply a big stumbling, preposterous man. Yet people listen to such non-thinkers as anything else but reason and thought. It’s @ curious world. z w@ee ~~ Will Start Tomorrow. Telegraph: The Granite.
