A littb; girl, nine years ol age, was offered as n
vvitne.ss ajjainst ti prisoner who was ou trial tor
ielony coniiuittt*d in b«*r fatber’s liouso
‘•Now, Etiiiiy,” r>aid the counsel lor tiie pris

liire to untlerstiind it you know the nature of au
oathi'” '
••1 don’t kin)w wbat you iu(*an;” was the sim
ple answer.
‘‘There, your lionor,”said the eounsel, address
ing tlie court, ‘‘is anything larther necessary to
demonstrate the validity of uiy objections'' Thi.s
witnesis should be rejected. She does not com
prehend the nature ot un oath.”
‘‘Lot us see,” said the .ludge, “come here, my
daughter.”
Assured 1 y the kind tone and manner of the
Judge, the ctiild :-tepp(‘d tow;uds him and looked
confidently up in bis face with a calm, clear eyo,
and in a manner .-o urtlc.ss and frank that it went
straight to the heart,
“Hid yon ever take an oatiil'” inquired tiiu
.I'uilge.
The little girl stepped back with a look of hor
ror, and the red blood mantled in a blush all over
her f:ice and neck, as slie answered, “No sir ”
Slie tb'iught be iiiteiidtnl to ini(uire if she had
ever blas{iherned
“1 do not mean that,” said the Jutlge, wlntsaw
her mistake. “*l aiean were you ever a witness
before?”
He banded her he Bible open.
“Do you «now that book, my daughter';'”
She lookeil at it and answered “Vos, sir, it i.-*
the Bible.”
“!>o you ever read it'” he asked.
“Ye.s, .sir—uvery evening.”
“Can you tell iw wbat the Bibie is?”
“It is the word ol the great God,” she answered
‘‘Well, place your bantl upon this Bible and
listen to wbat } say,” and he repeated slowly and
solemilly tb.j oath usually administered to wit-
ne.s.5Cfe.
“Now,” said tlie .ludge, “you iiave been sworn
us a witness—will }0U tell me what will befall you
il you do not tell tbe truth.”’
“I shall leshut up in the St;tte jirison.” at*
swered the ehiM.
“Anything '‘Is;.!' asked the.ludge
‘•I shall ii.'ver go to heaven,”
“How du you kno«''” asked the .ludge again
The child took the Bible, and tifrning ra[>idl^
to the chapter cuniaining the eouimaudnient.s,
pointed to the injuiK'tion, “'I’hou sbalt not bear
