Ti* human for the soul to err, Beguiled by \Wons fair; Thei crush ;t net with words cl scorn. Nor drive it to despair. I When some frail son of earth shall pass Beneath misfortune's cloud. Be thou a lijjht to guide the glooin Of error's sable shroud. 1\ rchance if yon desert him now, Bees use he's gone astray, No other friend ntny fling a smile Ot sunsbiLe o'er his way. There's many a heart that strays afar From virtue's beaten traek, Which, like the dove unto tho ark, Will ere long wander back. One gentle word of kind rebuke, May call the roauier home ; No inore in paths of vice and shame, Ilis waywaid feet may ronto. But, oh, one harsh, ill-spoken word, 1 May chill the erring soul, And drive the victim far beyond The limit* of control. To see tho friends of happier days In coldness turn away, Oft proves the bane that madly drives i . The sin sick soui sway. j When you upbraid the faults of youth. Let not your words be void ; For chilling tones, like melted lead, Soon harden in the mould. But speak in accents soft and kind, The wayward to reclaim ; And thus you'll dry the turbid stream 1 run whence hi* errors came. Wipe off tne penitential tear Th..t glitters on his cheek ; And bid 11iin turn to virtue's paths, And there foigivnes? seek. IT upon ns conscience, nick with sin, 1 Jm- balm of comfort pour; And, like (lie Saviour of mankind, Bid >iita "go, :m<l sin no more !" ^mikij H\eoiluuj. I PORGOT TO PEAY. "Don't touch iny books, Kdilj," said little Small Wiliiix, iti a p'-evisli tone ol voiie. "I >on't tout h tliein at all. 1 |>i let I tlieui up just as I want ihctn to a:a ." "1 hoi atratd my little daughter does not feel quite pleasant this morning," said a pan, but svveel-faced lady, who sat in an easy chair near the fire. "Ciiirw to me, Sarah, and let me nsk you a question." '1 lie little girl slowly approached bet mother, who pm her arms around her, and naked her it she had prayed to Gtal, and asked him to make her kind and pleasant through the day. "No, mother," aui 1 the litiie girl, "I forgot t<? pray." "Forgot to pray, Sarah ! I am very aorrv vou have then forgotten to thank (rod for keeping you alive ami well through the night. You have forgotten God, I ' fear, entirely ; but I seo that he has never forgotten you for ot.e moment." "How do you see that he has not forgotten me, mother?" said the child, looking upas if half summed, to tlm PuK-' face. "Why I see that lie is watching over you and taking care of you every minute now. If lie should forget or neglect you, your lips would cease to open, you could not hear or see, and your little form would become cold and still in death." Sarah looked seiious while her mother ! thus was speaking, and when she had i tiniohed, she said *. "l'ray for me too mother. Pray to j God to forgive me for forgetting to thank ' him, and ask him to make mu a good girl aii the day." "I will, my dear; but you must prav for yourself. I would go into your little room now, if I were you, a.*d offer up a simple prayer to your kind and heavenly Father." So Sarah left the room to follow her mother'* direction.

Until this shall be the case, the Christian religion will l?e deprived of one of its iivjst important and powerful ele ntenis of success. "The l*Hiitv of a holy life," says Dr. Chalmers, u constitutes the inost eloquent and effective persuasive to religion, which one human being can address to another. j We have many ways of doing good to our ( fellow creature*; hnt none so good, so efficacious as leading a virtuous upright, ( and well ordered life.

D1 Two men used to work in the fields to- ^ jcther. One of tliein was cheerful and j iappy, but the other w*s always full of vim, and miserable. The fearful one tJ* would say to his. companion, "W'liat would dii iiecotnc of my children, if I vreio to die ?" ; '"? \nd tbe other would try nod persuade liin to be thankful that lie was yet able tor o work, and 10 earn bread for tboin ; but wo ie could not comfort bim. ?r" Now in the fi"UI in which titer were at l,H' work, they spied two nests in one bush, 8}s and they used to watch the old wirdsgo- 03 in j; in and out all the day long, with food J for their little ones, And they often spoke . to each otber about the love of these birds "I" for 'tieir young. llut ono day, just as one i lo of tbe old birds was living to her nest, a ' s,n hawk pounced down upon him, hiuI car-1 s,r ned him awav. And now the poor man J who had been miserable before, became j ten limes more miserable. lie could I C!U hardly s'cep all nigbt for thinking first of' the poor little birds that bad no parents to j 'ea feed them, and then of his own children; , ^ul w ho w ould have no one to w ork for thein ; n,f if he should die. Kn In tlio morning be went softly to the ! l'" bush, and looked in at the nests, for he i w' thought he should see the young birds in ' ',u one of the nest\dying. Hut be was as- j Pr' tonisbed to see they were alive in both ! nests, and chirping as merrily as if no 'al hawk bad ever come near them. He could not tell how it culd be; so be sat '"l down close by to watch them. Presently j ro< be saw the old birds, belonging to one. of j '''' tbe nests, fly in, and tliey fori the little ones | in one of tliein. ami then they wont away | and came back with focd to the littleoru-s ' u in the other nest; and so they went all tbe m' day long. And he called his companion, ri and almost wept for jay ;? > he showed hun ' this thing. ca So they said lo each other, that thev s" would imitate the birds and work as well I ' ' a? tliey could, each for his own family, so (:l long as lie was able: and if either of lliem I ,l should ?lie. or Ihj unable to work. then the j 'n other would ero on and labor for both f:ini i dies. j ns What a blessed thing it would have been , "* for that poor, fearful man, if lie bad known 1 the kind word* the Savior spoke; "Are not ' five sparrows sold lor two farthings, a u' i ' j not one of them is forgotten before <?c t Fear not. therefore ; ye arc of more vi!tn than tunny sparrows."
