THE DYING MOTHER'S PR AVER.
Tho wile of a clergyman in Connecticut wai
smitten with a languishing and fatal disease
She was the mother of threo children, the
youngest a babo of only a few months old
Whenever the came near her bedside, it was
observed that she was commending them ir
pravcr to tier covenant C?od. Submission to hi:
will seemed to gain tho ascendency over the ardoi
of her earthly affections, so that she peacefully
surrendered to him the objects of her foudesl
regard. She ollcn repeated with emphasis,
44 'Tisjoy enough, my all in all,
Tlius at thy feet to lie;
Thou wilt not let nic lower fall,
And none can higher fly."
44 It makes but Jittlo difference," she said
44 when or where wo leave this little sped
called earth,'if vc are prepared to go. I know
in whom I have believed, and am persuade*
that ho is able to keep that which I have com
rnitted unto him against that day. I content
plate lying down in the grave with composure
and peace, and joy." She had early know:
and loved her Savior, and tho reward of her con
pistont piety, was such a richness of f.iith ai
took the sting front death. At the age of sover
she was deeply impressed with the important
of religion, and at fourteen became a member o
thochurcli. When about to pass down into th<
dark valley, with all the serenity of one win
carried cjucnchles light within the soul, she lai<
her cold hand upon her little sou, and praycc
audibly, and earnestly for his salvation.
I heard the voice of prayer?a mother's prayer?
Adying mother for her only son?
Young was his brow ami fair.
Her hand was on his head?
Her words oi love were said?
Her work was done.
And there were other voices round her bed,
Sweet, brid-like voices?for their mother doai
Asking with mournful tear.
Mi! hv whose hand shall these sad tears ho dried

Ilers must be pulseless laid, low with tlu

And tho ho irsc d.isii of Jordan's swclllinj

Alone she treads?Is there np earthly hold,
No friend, no helper, no strong arm to save
Down to the fearful grave,
In tho firm courage of a faith soreno,
That meok one prrst;
And as she drew tho rord
That hound her to her Lord,
Moro closely round her breast.
The white wing of the Availing angel spread
More palpably, and earth's bright things grev

Even fond affection's wail
Seemed like the fir-ofF sigh of spring's for goiter
And so that mother's prayer.

In agonizing love,
Itose to high praise of Cod's paternal care :
On hisstrnog arm her infant charge she laid
And with a trusting eye

Confiding in her blest Redeemer's said,
She taught tho much loved band,
Who round her couch of pain did stand,
How a weak woman's hand
Wresting with sorrow and with sin,
Might from the king of terrors win
Tho victorv.

THERE IS FORGIVENESS.
A Mr. Davies, being under religions im.

many who make use of the expression are
iware of. I, myself, preached some yea rs,
while I had but very little. if any acquainaneo
with access to God through Christ,
.iDtil the Lord was pleased to visit me with
;ore affliction, by which I was brought to
;hc brink of the grave, and under which
my mind was filled with horror and I was
some time in the depths. But it pleased
[iod to relieve my soul by a powerful application
of Psalms 130?4. 4 But there is
forgiveness with thee, that thou mnyest be
feared.' From this text I received special

. THE WINE QUESTION.
A discussion of no ordinary interest
ins been carried on in some of the middle
md northern States., in New-York partiMilnrly,
upon the subject of Wines and
ermented liquors generally as a beverage.
ft has been found that tic old pitdge; as
i it is called, which has respect to distilled
I liquors alone, is not sufficient to accom- jwp
,! |>lish the objects contemplated by the JL
.! Temperance Reformation. Many who 1 pare
s! have long since given up the use of Rum, j 'Jat'
J Brandv, &c. now get drunk upon Wine, I en
11 Beer, and Hard Cider. These persons' r
,1 have only changed the instruments of their! ?:
r | intoxication, their intemperate principles j ?
' remain unchanged. In view of these j HT
L j facts, the question, in a great many places | j
j has been discussed, Whether it is not the . n0?
i duty of the real friends oj Temperance, to j com
! abandon at once, and for ever% the use of j the
j ALL INTOXICATING LIQUORS. The New- j .
: York State Society at its last meeting, j v.jtj
\ I took the affirmative of this question, arid mos
11 we are told that the cause ne*cr was more j ostl,
. j prosperous in that State than at the pre-;
-' sent.
' j Now, as Total Abstinence from all that j i,
] j can intoxicate, is about to become, as it j ^
, I certainly ought, the great ruling principle j
> j of the Temperance enterprise, we most j thin
1.1 cheerfully adopt it as our own, and we ^
3 j sincerely invite all the friends of the cause j "'cc
j to adopt it, as the only efficient course to j ^
1 ensure complete success. There are two -?
1 considerations particularly, that point out j
this course as a proper one.
First: The old pledge which interdicts
| the use of distilled liquors alone, has been :
i found to operate unequally upon differ-1
' rent classes of society. The poor man,!
I who perhaps seldom drinks costly wines, i
j is persuaded to abandon his Whiskey,
j because it is doing hint a serious injury. |
ri Hut the rich man, vho probably never
, i drinks distilled liquors, and therefore j
[ makes no sacrifice, still continues the use \
j of I Fine. Thus the sacrifice, according i
i to the old scheme, is altogether upon one '
: side. The true aspect of the case has !
I j been as follows: The rich man who has . ^
' i been disgusted at that sort of intoxication sg
t O :
J which is usually prouueed by distilled j
; liquors, lias lectured his poorer neighbor j
! and said to him," Vou ought to quit that J ^
j filthy Whiskey which makes you such n j
tool, and which is working the ruin of j ?
| yourself and your family: Yes, you ought I p
: to quit it?conic, join the Temperance I and
. 1 Society?be yourself-?bo a man !" But | Coti
j this very man, has turned away fiom j anil
i giving this lecture, and quaffed with no Pr0I
1 | had relish, his rich, delicious Wines. In a?e
| this way the grosser kind of intemperance
) is attempted to he broken off, whilst that A
j which is more retiring, and a little more
j delicate, is retained.
Secondly: It has been ascertained by a
' I long course of experience that the use of
' Wines and other fermented liquors, often M
; revives a thirst for drinking, in those who ?^
haveattordcd conic cnccnng promise oi w*
! reformation, from habits of intemperance. *
A man for instance, who lias long been y
' accustomed to drink stimulating liquors, ?
I feels a temporary pleasure under the c.\- i A
j citement produced by their cficct; he j
j joins the Temperance Society, and seems, i cjosi
'i for a time, to have overcome that burning ;
[ thirst for stimulants, which once urged j _?f
. | him on in a course of shameful in-.
j cbriafion; but at length he ventures, '
. perhaps upon the solicitation of a friend,
to take a little TFiite, and behold, all the 710
incentives of his old depraved appetite, at al,ot
j once exert their inllucncc upon his feelings
and conduct! Like a torch applied to
dry stubble, Wine will inflame the quondam can
inebriate, and plunge him anew, into a Dud
state of profligacy and drunkencss, his sor^
i recovery from which seems almost hope
! less. Many arc the instances in which !
persons who promised well, have been in- j
duced to go back to their cups, by the i
use of that red, enticing liquor, which !
j Solomon calls a deceiver ! j scril
But notwithstanding the principle above !
: stated seems to be the most consistent reaei
and the most equitable, there arc many stocl
that oppose its adoption. The ground of
' their opposition is, that it is inexpedient at j1^ 0
present to adopt it. Now, we acknowledge j.*au
that we nre-entirely unable to comprehend 30th
this kind of casuistry. A principle is or $
right-?it is consistent?it is safe, but it is the 1
<5 ^ mart
inexpedient! And \\hat are the circum- ^
stances in this ease, that produce this in- mart
expediency ? Is it that some are unwilling : grati
to give up their Wines ? Is it that they !
i have considered the abandonment of dis- ,j.lv
j tilled liquors, all the sacrifice which they tion
I arc called upon to make for the good of Habil
j the community ? We do hope these per- tor 1
j sons will reconsider the subject, and that j
