INFLUENOV OF. 1uW Paesa.-In a sermon -on ThanksAiving Day, by the Rev. Mr. LIaen, Rector of TrinIt (Episcopal) Chnrchl Baltimore, he'Baidy "I shall ros;ive the remainder of my re marks to a subjept which,is rarely 'alud. ed to in the pulpit, but vhich is exercis. ing a moil importatt influence apon every State, city, vi lle, confty,*d family of our Uniod. -1 refef to the pre-the newspaper-which -trim tho smallAt beginning, a luxu to the fa. #ored few, has become indispensableito millionp, and whose power in forming public lentiment is uearur4ble.

Onr young ster, however, took no heed, and on again offending was put in the cask. which was headed up, leaving a large bunghole for the admission of air. That night the ship encountered a violent storm, and, in a sudden lurch, the ask containing the boy rolled over into the sea. Fortunately the cask struck bng. ,up,- and floated about thirty hours,'when it was thrown upon the beach at ?t. Blas. Here the boy made desperat ef. forts to extricate himself from his prison, but without stccess, and, in despair, gave up to die.
