IDEAS OF C oAoE AND CO wAaDICF Courage and Cotverdice were not ilowd until -after Adam's-fatbu the latte'iri, for Mloses, says Gene. '9'at Adiidhhi from his Creator amongst the ireia offtlie garden, aller he had .eaten of the forbidi den fruit," and assigued as a reso'n 'se :o doing, that he was afraid,. Fear tchet fore, appears to be connecteri totra:Isgref sion, and as Adam begat in iis-owtn Jile nebss; every dgscendant 'of him, js;byria ture, a coward: It is a well' known fact: that every infant isteasily 'terrified, whih is no blighi testibnouy qf the truth oif that scripture, viz: I was afraid.. Before the erusifixion of our Lord, his Discipl.Qs said, that though jhey should die. with him, yet would fthuv not deny him; but whende was betrayed they all forsook him and led, and Peter denied him with an oatih bur Lord's Deciples, prior to thedayo.d Peuticost, were not oinly cowari'ly ;ut :ruel also, for i hen on their way to Jeru taleim, as they arrived st '$amtaria, and were refused iodgings, they requested ir Lord to call down fire from Hearedn.d )n tamaria, but he rebuked them -in hese words, "The sod of titan caine not' o destroy men's lives, but to safo tfierrnJ .oil ardice and cruelty result frotn mai's all. But from the day .of Penticost, on vhich they were truly :onverted, the De. :iples were no-longor susceptible of fear.. Jowardice or cruelty. for there is neither 'ear nor cruelty in God. neither io those ossessing his spirit. Bitt, it is sai.d that ufidels possess no fear, for it is written; here is no fear of God before their eyes ; >ut to inform the reader, we say it is-be ause the God of this world has blinded heir eyes io a sense of thei danger; bat ben the great day o' final retribution. thall come, and:their eyes shall be opded,. hen their cowardice shall appew; for 'iheyr. hall call on the rocks and the mountains: o fall on. irhe.n and .hide them frotm& the. Krath of the Lamb. -lBut this fctitious ourage which is ihe property of man, it s degenerate stite, has to be frequeny mnetai'ed by cretiing faith int he abilityf ts poss,essors; forinstaine, Generals.. wthes ti.i.suuto,. ngage-ine war,- rdVuitinti to thd.ir: outipsieflmaiba(te's 8i alid , vith whiclithey insire thIm, so.it rheir ourage. Thus, Bona1:arte * intsired his roops n ith courage at Waterloo, in, per taps the following words : We have seven y live thousand tmen in the field, eaeh as ;ood as any Britisi 'soldier, and any rwo jftihe allied powers. -The British. then, tad but thirty thousand of their own troops ad forty thousand of the allied powers, which forty thousand* were 'equal only (igreeable to IHenaparte's assertion) to wenly thousand French, consequently thI-, thirty thousand Britons had to contend with fifty five thousand French, which. must have created in the French, hopes )f certain victory and courage accordingly. Fear, courage, or caution, which-soever 'he reader miay be' pleased to turnm it, was the result of transgression, and intended to prepare mlan to shun danger auJ death, to which he then became liable ; but more especially to flee the wrath to come, for it is writtan: "The fear of the Lord is the beioing of wisduon." Were it not for fear the Devil's title ti the human race would he good ; is not courage thou in I'al len man, the conseqluence of a corrupt ed-' uration, an invention of Satan, designed to counteract fear or caution, and blind~ild man to a sense of his danger that hiemay drive them into the hottomless pit, as a General, by blindf'olding his cavalry hor ses, drives them, not seeing'their danger, on the destructive linmes of a hostile infan try. -Courage is not hereditary, fear is, for Adam begat in liis own likeness, be ing a coward. Therefore no individual ptossesses courage except him who is born of God;t who possesses perfect love ; (the imnage of Godl) which casts out all f'ear, is a means of' man's sailvaiou; without which, as a free agent, he could not he saved;t for without fear, what itnfluence could the thtunderings of Sinai have on tho Jews. or the plhagues of Egy pt in procotr issa lheir emanicipmation ? Wlas niot tman by nature a coward, the horrora of the uda ,ned, and the pains of hell, ii as weal be portrayed to a post with the nope of amenment as to him; motreover, without fhear, what infiuensce could :he penal lawsof o'atiotss' have on man's conduct ? WVhat protection could they afford.to the person or property of the6 weak ? Wans not mats by nature a cow ard,.our earth should bena terrestrial hell ; but, fortunately, f'or the peace of 'society sow,. but more especially for the caunt of ma~i's salvation hereafter, pnd that he might he urged to flee the wraibh to come. Feair was providentially (in order to defeat bfe Devi,) copnnected to origitialItransgres. sions. Agaim-every man is 'cowardI by nature ; for if he is not afraid ~f his fellow mans, he is of thelIightnitng-th~ boisterous ocean-the plague-the peusilnce or the famnige; and wilhdepart-speedil 'g~pssib!e, the place of its situation or visii~sn: Il you would terrifya marine, lock- hirmbpi' a wooden house its a hirricanq ;'for irs his opinion it must overset, because it CUdno move with the wind as ships do, ;o , if yot would test 'the courageofa landlubber, (d the marine calls a landserrian.) place himn oi board a. ship in the midit ofthir'esan whore the wa vis rise muniaillig;,ab he will think ihat evory.pltiligshe aiak intn the. valleg or trough of lisinia' he - he would give all his posses, aeedonlhnd 'i-have known light any thing in luman .10k189 runaway- horse they I have known others raised esO, -ibaA t~i horse could ter ude IlIeaitha:i CuIrage in fallen ihiseducation, no man coarage-who is not born ol ""fly au stand unmoved when Sa lappear in confusion.

A Good Rule.-Lrd Erskin was distin guished through- life 'for indepsodence of principle, for his scrupulous adherence to the truth. He once explained the rules of his conduct, which ought to be deeply engraven on every heart. He said, "it was a first command and -dusel of my earliest youth, always'to do what my con cience told me to be'a duty, and'lenve the consquentces to God.' :1 shall carry with mne the memoryan~d trust the practice, of tis paternal lesson to the, grave. - have hitherto followedl it, and have no reason to cum plain that my obedience tto it has been a temaporal-sacrifice.

New England Railroads..-The Boston Courier of Tuesday, in its Money 4rticle. has the following statement respecting the high estimation in *hich Railroad invest mente are held in that quarter. In tl-ese times of doubt and distress they have be come the leading securities. The Cou rier says "A fair demand exists for the solid divi dend securities; the railrcads' takink the lead, as'tliey are considered safer, and less liable to loss, trodble in negotiation, and other contingencies, thdn'any othrer class of recorded property: Similar stocks in England take tlhe same rank. -They con stitute reservois for the rich, savings banks for the less fortunate in pecuniary affairs, audca be relied upon for liberal and im proving returns at stated periods." The Courier adds that the following, being the latest quotations, show ihe enor mous advances which has been reached by some of the popular raillwvay stocks in Gre'at Britain : Great North of England, ?231 sig. for ?100 stg. paid. - - - - " - Birmingham and Gloucester, ?129 sig. for ?100 seg. paid. - ' - - -' Edinbugh 'and Glasgow, 975 sig. for ?5tj stg. paid. --' Great Western, ?152 sig. for ?85 stg. pad. 1H ad Shelby ,?107 stg.for:?50atg nancheste" and Blirmitgham, 488-s', for ?40 stg. paid.

Some of these railways were partly built with borrowed capital, at a low rate of interest ; consequettily 'all the nett ue plus Is ftii' the benefit of the shareholders. These'roads- -have been very successful; the dividends have been large, and as a naturat consequeuce the: prices have ad vanced in sOtne instances, to one hundred and thirty per cent. United States Senate of 1847.-The N. Y. Globe has the following statement and esitnate of the probable political standing of the United States Senate, commencing on the 4th of March, 1847. "Of the Whigs whose terms expires in 1847, successors have been elected to Evans. of Maine ; Cilley, of New Hamp. shire, and Barrow, of Louisiana. The gentlemen elected are James W. Brad bury, John P. Hale; and Solomon U.

"If the above statemect prove corrects, and the whigsacarry Georgia at.the next election, and lowa and Winconsn -come into the Union' 'with demnocratic -Senators next winter, the Senate will stand on the 4thof'March, 1847, 40 democrats to 20' whigs."
