V?'' THS yo*C3 OP TRUTH. O A gentleman was once naked in comp'i- ? ny, what led him to embrace trie truths of il the Gospel, which formerly he was known j t to have neglected nnJ despised ! He said, j r *4 My call *nJ conversion to God my Savi- j s our, were produced by very singular means; t ? a person put into my hands " Paint's A?e i t of Reason." 1 read it with attention, and i s was much struck with the strong at.d ri j t culous represents ion he made of'many pas- j 1 sages iethe-Bible. I confeas,to-my shame.: < I had never read this Bible through ; but : . from what f remembered to have beard at j , Church, and accidentallyon other occasions,' I could not persuade myself that Paine's re- I port was quite exact, or that the Bible was quite so absurd as he represented it. I re- ! solved, therefore, that 1 would read the Bbie j regularly through, and compare the passag- i, es when I had done so, that I might give j 1 the Bible fair p'av. I accordingly set my- j j self to the task, and as I advanced, 1 was ) struck with the majesty which spoke, the j j aw fulness of the truths c ntained in it, and (j the strong evidence of its divine origin, j < which increased with every page, so that 1 j' finished my inquiry with the fullest satisfacticm of th? truth as it is in Jesus, and my , heart whs penetrated with a sense of obliga. tH>n I had never feir befio'e. I resolved j henceforth to toko the sacred word for my j guide, and to be a faithful follower of the j Son of God. v -1 danger op delaying repentance. However, if you fiud it so hard a thing to ; get from the power of one m nster.sin ; if an ; oldadulterer docs dote, if an old drunkard i he further from remedy than a young sinner, J if covfcteouswss grows with old age, if am- | bitioo he still more hydropic and grows j1 more thirsty for every draught of honour, j you may easily tesolvc that old age, or j your last sickness is not so likely to be pros, j perous in the mortification i f your iongN j prevailing sins. Do not all mni? desire to ! end thctr days in religion, to die in the arms of the church, toexp're uud r the conduct of n religious man ? When ye are si? k or dyp>g, then nothing but prayers and sad complaioLs and 'lite groans of tremulous ro. j pentance, and the* faint labours* of nn a).

That which is true then, is true now ; and, there, fore, to prevent so intolerable a danger, mortify your sin betnne, for else you will hardly mortify it at all.

Two men had a dispute which should re- j pair a particular fence separating their fields, j and through which the calile found their ; 1 way. After the usual preliminaries of do- j limiuaries of demands, refusals, threats, and mutual recrimination, they resolved to try the glorious uncertainty of the law. Th? y tvere, persuaded by their friends to the more | amicable mode of submitting the question 1 to the final defermioaiioo of h very worthy and intelligent neighbor, who was forthwith conducted to the scene of trouble, i Here, after hearing the arguments of both !, parties, he told them that the subject de- ; mended great deliberation?and, as it 1 would take time to decide, he would just 1 clup a few pieces of boards over tin; holes ; and in ten minutes time, with his own hands j he effectually closed every gup.

Dr. Orphcy ofDubfio declares that intern- , perance on wine is worse than iutcmpcr- j j ance ou any otl>er article. Biindness. par- J t tial or total, is found to a most alarming e*- : ? tent, in wine growing countries. Medical |f men aflribuje it to the use of wine. France 1' and Italy furnish illustrations of this remark, j j Tfiis will readily be credited by those, who i ( Ua\ c been accustomed to tbc redness ofeyes among the cider topers of Now l?ng- j* load. ' 1 ? ? r The following anecdote relating to Lords i ^ Mei bourne and Broughum, is taken from a , late English nap?T: i Meeting with a Scottish Baronet at Tours last Hummer* we learned the following cir- ; curnstnnoe illustrative of the "ancient intimacy" which existed between Lords Bough- [ am and Melhorne. Upwards of thirty veers ; < ago, Sir George S. Mackenzie of Coul in ; 1 Ross-shire, was waited upon at his house ?: one day by a messenger frotn the inn (or j change-house) to tell him that two get k men . were at the said hos lery, and wore desirous j of peak'nti with him. The Baronet re- ; j poked to the spot, and on enter ng the cot- J t ige saw to his surprise his college ac. 'T qunintance, Mr. Henry Brougham, dretstd. \' in a Hit, silling with his feet upon a pail of j water, and by his side Sir William Lamb, j 2 BDnaronilv verv tired and woebegone.? j , I / / # W . 1 After the usual congratulations, the travel- j lers stated that they were on a pedestrian c excursion in tl?e Highlands, and were con. ^ siderably fatigued. The gentleman pres s sed them to go to his house, but this they ^ declined. Some whiskey wu? culled in, and j after the glass had circulated a short time,! q and many a pretty remark and lively sally j h.id hoen made, the two strangers, linl? j _ dreaming, we dare suv, that one was to be j f Prime Minister and the other Lord Gi.ai cellor of England, slung their knapsacks on | ? ,heir backs and d^purled. It is a pity that : ^ courts or debates should come between n|^ friendship so old standing, and cemented by ti kindly thoughts and offices thirty years since w utnong the Highlund hills. The energy h and perseverance of Brougham at this time j led all who knew him to predict his fu;urc j greatness , and one gentleman in Glasgow, j AIr? Jardir.e, a merchant bet ten guineas t?> i t '* ? v; mo that Brougham would be n Cabinet 'Imish r. The joerchant did not live to see tus realized ; but so firm was his convicion that it would fake place, that lie left a] Memorandum in his will, stating that the *irioeas were to be paij over to the Gins[uw Infirmary. This was actually done afer L ?rd Brougham's elevation to tlie woollaokl Mr. JurJine's son (who told the :ircumstaiic< ) wash a Scottish advocate, or larris rr, and is now a slierfF in Ccotlrnd.

'Wlio wakes two blades of grasegrow where one grew before, do?s more tor his. country, than an Aloxander or a Bonaparte." At the solicitation of many friends, the sub teriber has consented to bo the editor and pubisher of a periodical exclusively devoted to Agncnlturc, <*Hideniug, and the eth r branches of Husbandry in gener.il. Its object will bo, in [dain style, to commnnieate useful inlonnation to the cultivator, whether of the vine 01 the Bower* of vegetables or plants, of fruits, grapes or trees, as tho mulbc.ry and all kinds ofoiohard trees, with the bo*t manner of planting them , furnishing suitable hints for tho improvemeitt of the various soils, breeds of cattle, and olbor stock, with the treatment of the diseases to which th y are liable, and the management of bees and silk worms. The editor will endeavor to illustrate the importuct principles* upon which tho art and science of agriculture is founded, and *0 introduce an econiinical system of tho labore, in the field, meadow or cocoonery, that" may be best adapted to tho seasons, climato and latitude in which we reside, and which in most respects, diffkr greatly from the Middle, Northern and ?astcrn States.

The publication shall contain a full account of all those that are likely to bem-rit our part of the country, and increase intelligence, virtue, happiness and prosperity at every hearth in the Southern States. It shall be free from all sectarian or political views, wholly governed by. Southern feeiings and principles, endeavor will be to reoder it serviceable to the young and the aged?to "Heaven's last best gift to man" even in her teens, and to th-'sturdy Fanner?by informing themofthi properscason, which from experience in our section of the Union may have been found most conger ial to commit their seeds to the soil-to prune tln-ir vines aud trees?to transplant their tender shoots and flowers?to engraft, iuoculite or bud their shrubs and trees, and turn the "maiden's blush" in'o the charming "moss" or "monthly rose," with the best manner of harvesting and preserving their crops and produce. We shall by no means overlook the great Southern stapfes, Cotton and Rice, for upon these, little information can be obtained from Northern publications. From the kind promises tendered by friends to the undertaking, valuable orig-nal contributions may be. anticipated; and other correspondents are respectfully solicited to communicate any information that may be interesting or beneficial toothers, relating to their mode of culture; as facts collected frem the tillers t>f cur own soil, with their observations and remarks wilt be highly appreciated by the 1 *?- -?1 ?'
