GETHSEMANE. The darkness of night shrouded the sleep ing city. No moon gilded with silvery light the spires and domes that by day had re flected the fiery brightness of a torrid sun. No star sent forth its mild and cheering' heams to relieve the gloom and desolateness that like a pall had fallen on the earth with the setting sun. The night wind moaned hoarsely among the dark cedars and mourn ful cypresses of Gothsemane-sad, desolate, wild was the scene. There was a vague oppressiveness and gloom in the very still ness that reigned over that spot. But see! A figure clothed in white glides slowly like a spectre and kneels on the cold, damp sod. Why is he here? Long since has sleep sealed the eyes of the thousands that daily throng the streets and marts of Judea's Capitol, and even his most faithful followers a little way off overcome by fatigue and heaviness are wrapped in profoundest slum ber. But hark! how clearly and sweetly rise his mournful accents on the still air of night. 'Tis the voice of a son pleading with a father-'tis the voice of the long promised Messiah-the Prince of peace-the Saviour of Israel. For long years had he borne the murmurings, scoffingsand persecutions of the stubborn Jews. "He came unto hisown and his own received him not." Wearily had he travelled on his mission of love, healing the sick, giving sight to the blind, waking the deaf to hang with delight on the melting accents of his own gentle voice, and calling the dead from the icy embrace of the tomb. He felt that now the hour of sacrifice.was approaching, and sank in agony beneath his father's frown. He heeds not the chilling blast, too intensely bitter is the anguish of his spirit. All the 9nergies of his soul are concentratea and absorbed in the str a le against the gloom and agony that crush m to the earth. And from his brow, clammy with the night dew of heaven, large drops of bloody sweat trickle to the ground. See! th2 anguish and woe that is depicted upon everyeiineamest of his lovely face as he cries, "Father, if it be possible let this cup pass from me." Legions of shining angels, unseen by nortal eye, gazed with intensest sympathy on the scene, and bright seraphs hoverimg on noiseless wing with mingled awe and sadness watched the fearful conflict. Nor were the black fiends of hell uncon. cerned spectators of the struggle that was to test the weakness of humanity and the omnipotence of God. As Nature failed, Deity came to his aid and with a smile of resignation he exclaimed in sweetest accenV, " Not my will but Thino be done." Hell's dark legions fled aghast and angels with ten fold rapture turned their golden harps be fore the Throne of the Eternal. Comforted, resigned, he arose and awoke his drowsy followers to meet the embrace of the traitor and to suffer the death of the cross. The moon- threw off her canopy of cloud, the stars one by one appeared in the firmament and nought remained to tell of that scene of agony and sorrow. Calvary received its bleeding-victim. Fire, famine, sword and pillage bowed that (evoted city in the dust. Not one stone of its magnificent temple re mained to iall the tale of its departed glory. And the fulfilment of prohetic vision sent Israel an- outcast among the nations of the earth. Centuries have rolled away, and Gethsemane still remains in its gloom and loneliness, a perpetual memento of the an guish of the "man of sorrows." RNEN. The Bible says but little about the scene that will open before the Christian- after death, and that little is in language very gen-. eral and figurative. But what of that? i he believer surely can trust his God. Why should he krish to know fully concerning those things which 'eye bath not seen, of which the ear bath not heard, and of which the mind of mortal man cannot form per fect apprehension? Inquisitiveness must be restrained. We must be satisfied to know that in heaven perfect and eternal happiness will be experienced. Yes, fancy may paint before us the purest pleastire and the most exalted joys, and they will be more than re alized. Hope may expand to her utmost limit and faith soar to her loftiest heights, and there is no danger that the heart willibe disappointed. Disappointed in heaven ? No! Sweeter bliss than the most fertile im agination can conceive, purer and more per. feet enjoyment than the Christian can antici pate, await him there..* All past evil will be forgotten, and the future be entirely free from sorrow. Every blessing which a holy and intelligent being could desire will be provided. The society of all the good that ever inhibited earth, and the angels who have never sinned, and, what is infinitely more desirable, the fellow ship and love of God the triune, will be en joyed. Oh! how ravishing the anticipation. To sec the great white throne, the fountain gushing frodi beneath it, the river of life, the tree of life, the glory of the Lord; to wear the crown and bold the palm of victo ry and strike the golden harp; to hear the anthem of angels and all the redeemed, and see the smiles of Jesus; to join the song of triumph, to have unfolded to our view the great mysteries of redemption, and learn more and more the wonderful nature of God, and the astonishing perfection of his works-to do and experience this and yet be so constituted as to feel no weariness ; to behold eternal day and need no night to bring repose; to see eternal sunshine, and require no shadows to make us better ap. preciate the full splendor; to eat but never to feel satiety ; to drink, but never become intoxicated; to glide along on a calm sea that never has a rilple; to sing with mail lions, and not one note of discord, and all the while the voice becoming attuned to higher and sweeter strains, the ear accus tomed to-drink in more delicious melodies, the mind expanding to comprehend riicher truths, and the heart developing to the ex pression of purer and fuller love ! Perfection, and going on to perfection! Glory, increasing glory ! Praise, higher praise ! 0! this is heaven. This is what the poor, toiling, careworn, sick, disconsolate, dying believer will experiernce wihen be has crossed the ril of death, and reaches the celestial city. FAiTH, HOPE 10 CHARITY. The paths of life are numerous-right and wrong--pleasant and easy-intricate and be tween with thorns. Who journeyson through the maze of circumstances which infallibly present themselves to mortal view, having faith at his right hand, may succeed in gain. ieg the open road and travel therein unto the end. And he whose heart pulsates with hope sinks not easily ; his mind, fortified under its influence, succumbs to no ordinary obstacles ; lhe has a friend by his side full of might and courage-a cheerful compan ion, who encourages, assists, and. even when one hgemountain of trouble is overtuned, attacks another, should It he pre. se= ye em Ininag cnnsiant to the end of life's journey. Yet antoher friend would fain lighten the heart of man, and cheer him on his way through life-a sweet, consoling, sympathising friend, whose saim pie name is Christ. Would that man listen to har precepts and exercised them more fully among his fellows! What heavenly peace surrounds and accompanies through life the mortal who acknowledges and obeys her dictates! What biekerings, jealousies, hatred, anger and strife, would not the full exercise of this heavenly firtue remove! Charity, thir sister! thou art the mainspring of all virtues, there is a holy influence in thy name; it is a purification to nature; it is a balm the angels use; an inexhaustible fount of peace and love, and good will to wards men. In all things, Charity, keep Faith at thy right hand; let Hope be the pole-star of thy mind. But Charity is a priceless jewel; bind her to thy heart with the virgin gold of love; she asks no other sustenance than tears.-Fanily Friend. MARY AND HER MOTHEL "Mother, why do you read the Bible so much?" said little Mary ; "haven't you read it all through?" "Yes, my dear, a great many times," said her mother. " Well, then, you must know all there is in it by this time, and yet you read it every day." . - "Do you remember, last summer, Mary, when you were away at Miss Brookes' School " "Yes, mother." "You told me that when you got a letter from home, you used to read it over and over till it was almost worn out." " And so I did, mother." " Well, what made you read that letter so often ? you knew all that there was in it. " Because it seemed a pleasure, and made me think about home, and you, and faither." "So, my dear, I read over some parts of the Bible that I have read hundreds of times before, for the same reason, that it reminds me of my home, of my heavenly Father, and my Saviour, and of what he wishes me to do; and therefore I love to read it." " Is heaven my home too, mother?" said little Mary: " shall you take me with you when you go ?" " I cannot tell you, my dear; I cannot give you leave to go to heaven, but I know who can." "Ah, you mean Jesus Christ, mother." "Yes, my dear, you must ask him; and you must read and learn to understald this Book, which is like a letter from Him to us to tell us all about himself and heaven. When you can, I hope you will love to read the Bible as much as I do." TuE TRIAJ.S OF LAFE.-Lif4 is not entirely uiade up of great evils of heavy trials; but the perpetual recurrence of petty evils and small trials in the ordinary and appointed exercise of Lhe Christian graces. To bear with the fhilings of those about us-with their infirmities, their bad judgment, thei ill breeding, their perverse tempers-to en dure neglect when we feel we deserve atten tion, and ingratitude when we expected thanks-to bear with the company of disa. greeable people whom Providence has place~ in our way, and whom He has perhaps pro vided or purposed for the trial of our vi,tue -these are the best execises of patience and self denial, and the better because not chosen by ourselves. To bear with vexgtion in business, with disappointment in our ex [peetationls, with interruptions of our retire mnent, with folly, intrusion, disturbance-in short, with whatever opposes our will, con tradicts'our humor-this habitual acquies eenee appears to be more of the essence of self-denial than any little rigors or inflictions of our own imposing. These constant, inev itable, but inferior evils, properly improved, furnish a good moral discipline, and might, in the days of ignorance, have superseded pilgrimage and penance..tHannak Moore, READY-MADE CLOTH I1E.
