THB CONFIDING PECCARY

From London Truth,)

When the Lion had a Difference of Opinion with the Peccary, the latter, before he dared hia Qgponnnt to mortal Combat, sent first to his Friends the Bear, the Eagle, and the Fox, soliciting their Aid.

And these Answers were returned by them ?— By the Bear ; • Right o * Pn» with you!' By the Eagle ; ' Back you 1 Rather 1 Won't I just!' By the Fox: • You're the Facof* dpna for my money. Get yoar Snout in and win !'

Deceived by these Assurances, the simple, thongb pugnacious, Peooary went for the Lion, and a deadly Com bat ensued, But the Peccary's three Friends did not more than come anil > look on at a safe Distance, encouraging * the little Porker with frequent Shoott of • Go it,' • Bravo,' Well done !' while they called the Lion every bad Name they conld lay Tongues to. At length, daring a Pause in the Oombat, the Peccary, who lay on the Ground gasping and half-dead, ex* claimed, reproachfully, to his Friends : • You promised'me your Aid; Bat you have merely looked on and watched the lion settle me, A Nose Ring for such Friendship ! I would I had never relied on it' .

• Oh, my dear!' replied the Bear, raising his paws in unctuous Remon strance. '• I have given you my vootl Support, What more, as a reasonable P< ccary, could you want ? Sorely you never expected me to pat my Head within reach of that rampageous Crea ture's Olaws I 1 fJt me, to run the Gauntlet, of bis Fary with my beet Tail Feather* I" expostulated the Eagle. | "Or me, to expose my beautiful sleek Bkin to his savage Teeth"! added the Fox. "But be sure yon have our deepeib Sympathy in your Trouble," they all chorused together, blubbering and sniffing. . Turoing aw«y from them in indig nant Scorn, the Peccary said to the Lion, I chuck. Do what you will with me. It ie better to throw one's eelf on th« Mercy of a declared Foe like your self than to rely on the'fair Words of sach Friends ac those,

Then, addressing himself once more to ths 6'jbbing Trio, he idded : "Awfully obliged, Bat your Sym pathy h quite useless to *ne. Pray take it,, and yourselves also, to«— aheai! the Kegent'a Park, with my OompH tneate,"

Morftl—Put not your trastin the Great Powers,"—• Psalais cxlxi., 2 (revi-edversion.)
