All who take any inter; e.s: in evangelizing the world, regard it j as an indispensable auxiliary. It has, ! with great propriety, l>een called the mod' em Gift of Tongues." By it not only can the missionary address millions whom he j cannot personally reach; but truth, present; cd to the eye as well as the ear. carried to the retirement and pondered, makes a deeper lodgment in the mind. The press too, i under the blessing of God,*seems indispen: sable for giving religion permanency among | a people. "The world," as was eloquently said by a member of a foreign missionary Board at a late meeting, "was once conquered in fifty years by viva voce preaching ! but then there was no press, no stereotype { no steam, no Bibles tor ftftv cents, no j 1 Tracts by the million. If Paul and his j companions had had such munitions as God j J has put into our hands; if he could have : | fortified as he went, and secured what he ! j won, we never should have heard of Ma- ; hornet, or the man of sin, or the dark ages. ! ' ? . -1 i i j ' The sua ol divine truin wouiu nuvu risen to his meridian and stood still, and continued to pour down brightness upon the world in one continued Hood of millennial glory." ; Trusting in the guidance and blessing of i I 1 God, the Committee feel that this engine of ! power must be wielded against the strong-, t hold ot'sin; and while he is opening access al. i I most throughout the habitable earth, they j i are pained to propose for the current year, no larger amounts than arc above specified tor respective fields; and will gladly increase them if sufficient contributions shall be made. j ; They beg to remind the friends of Zion, j j that besides the object now presented, the i j Society is sustaining a great work for sup- j plying the millions of our oicn country, on J land and water, with Tracts and volumes, j and exciting the people of God to prayerful and faithful labors for the souls of men in j connexion with their distribution; that all the i Society's income since the commencement ; of the current year, has been employed to i meet immediate claims; and that without i j more than the accustomed liberaUtij, even I the sum of 835,000 cannot be obtained and 1 j remitted to the foreign field before the So- | eiety's year shall close. They invoke the ! I prompt and liberal co-operation, of Pastors, churches, Auxiliaries and individuals, male. \ j and female, in this heaven-born work; and : ! their continued prayers, that God will take j it, in all its departments and bearings, under i : his holy keeping, and add the sanctifying ! I influences of his Spirit, without which every i effort is vain. j By order of the Executive Committee of j | the American Tract Society. JAMES MILNOR, Chairman. | William A. Hallock, Cor. Sec. O.

This duty is not only enjoined in the sa- j cred scriptures, but we are also pointed to j it by the light of nature. Accordingly the ! ancient heathen had their Lares and Pefti ates, or household Gods. These were | kept, and worshipped in every family by j i the Greeks and Romans; and idols, if not i ! of the same name, yet of the same kind are ! | worshipped by most of the heathen at the i present day. Such were also the gods of ; Laban which Rachel stole from him, anil I the graven and molten images ot -\iican ! I which he kept in his house.* It is true that. these were idols, but notwithstanding they ! show that nature dictates the propriety off God's being worshipped in every family. For: I what reformation would a reasonable and ; I pious man suggest to the idolatrous families ? i I Would he urge them to cast away their ; | idols and substitute nothing in their room ? I j or would he advise them to renounce the | vain worship of images, and take up the j i proper worship of the only living and true : God ? Undoubtedly the latter. I Reason plainly teaches that God, who is : infinitely excellent, is worthy of all the hom-! ! age which his creatures can give him. j i And because he lias created them and ! hourly upholds them, because it is in Ilirn j they live, and move and have their being, he is not onlv worthy of their homage i > t o i but has the strongest claims to their services. Their ability is the only measure of I their obligation, and therefore they arc j hound to worship him in every capacity in i which they arc capable. As individuals this obligation is never denied. Every man i feels that he is dependent upon God, and | however negligent he may he to acknowledge his dependence, and serve his proprie. j tor and benefactor, yet his conscience teaches him that it is his duty to worship j i ls\il l?iv nintror Hut tlio cninn nrmiments , viirvi) mo iiiuiwi A-'Mfc ?i?v vv?...v ?n . I which enforce personal and individual du. | j ties, also establish the propriety of family j I worship. Families arc of divine appoint-j ; ment. God is the author of the relations of i ; husband and wife, and parent and children. ' : lie is also the author of our sociable natures j j which induces us to seek these relations, ' and which capacitates us to receive and i enjoy social blessings. He is thesupporj ter, and benefactor of our families, as well j i as of our persons, hi the capacity offam- 1 j ilies we receive mercies, we need favors,, ; and require comfort and support which can ' alone come from God; we are guilty of I nnl.n/Mi.loilrrn tirhiph finfi nrflV fid1 j IU UL[\ II VJ M I^U^Vy *1 IJIVIIy 1UIU J/? V* 7 *v/? | ; pardon can only be done with becoming ' : propriety around the family altar; and we j J are exposed to danger and temptations, for j ; deliverence from which the united prayers j ' of husband and wife, and parents and chil- ' i dren should ascend to God. The same | j reason therefore which induces an individu al to pray for personal blessings should lead I a family to a throne of grace to receive do- j i nicstic mercies, and so also in every part of j ! religious worship, the acknowledging of' ! sins, the rendering of praise, and thanks- j j giving, and the humble, yet sincere dedica- i cation of soul and body to the service of j ; God. If any one denies the truth of this let him put his denial in words, and he cannot but i shudder at the impiety which they express, j Such a denial would be in some thing like j 1 the following language. " I acknowledge j ' that God is worthy and has a strong claim 11 i *?.wi ?t /-?in i ' IU till lilt" liUUJil^U cWIU ^L'l > UII1VII X V1%M | rentier him. I own that he is the proprietor ami constant supporter of my family. But, my family as such shall have nothing to do j with him, as an individual I will serve him, j hut as a parent, as the head of a family, I j owe him no worship, and I will pay him none." Strange and wicked as this language | appears, it is spoken by the conduct of eve-! ' ry parent who professes to be pious, and j vet neglects to prav in his familv. M. S. R. j * (Ten. 31 : 34. Jud.

Among the many reminiscences of my j early days, there are some which, I trust, I j shall never forget; and among these I would j class the vivid and delightful recollections \ which I retain of the manner in which the j Sabbath was observed in my father's house. \ Judicious writers on the sanctification of! the Sabbath, have not tailed to point out J the beneficial influence which a preparation for its important exercises, and delightful j enjoyments invariably produce. Hence, in very many cases where the day is observed : as it ought to be, the Saturday evening is | ' "" " rtf nivirv'iMtidi) ilir it. 1 llllUi'OVCU US ?l St-ilSUJi UI piv|/uiuuuu | by leaving oil'at an early hour all attention ' to the business of life, and by endeavoring j to draw ofl'the mind as much as possible | from this world, in order that it may become i tranquillized, and have nothing to engage ; its attention in the morning but the medita-1 tions and exercises which it is calculated to ; call forth. Such was the manner in which , the Saturday evening was observed in my father's house. The boots and shoes were all cleaned?the Sabbath day's suit for all i was looked out?the conversation of the J evening turned pretty much on the expectations and improvement of the coming day?and the devotional exercises around the family altar?whilst the Ebenezer was gratefully erected for all the blessings of the week?had a special reference to the ordinances of the sanctuary, and the preparation of the heart for them which comes from God. On the morning of the day itself; "Whose young dawning rays beheld our rising God," it was no unusual thing lor the younger branches of the family to he awoke by the1 sound of prayer from the soft sweet voice of their mother, whose usual custom it was lo ^ay wva voce. When they arose, there was no hurry, nor noise, nor confusion ; and though all wore a serious look, yet it was such seriousness as indicated that the Sab. was a delight to them. When they had gol up, the closet was visited by all in succession. It was a room appropriated lor the purpose, and was usually, as a matter o course, visited first by our parents ; and, aj I think of it, I cannot but regard it as a hallowed spot, and ardently do I wis! that every family on the face of the earth had such a place appropriated to such ex ercises. Breakfast was soon despatched and worship, according to practice of pious families in Scotland, was reverently gom through?that is?the presence and assis tance of God was first implored, in a shor address at the throne of grace; four ver ses of a nsalm were then usually given out I . w which all united in singing; a chapter wa.? then read, with the practical Reflections ir Brown's Family Bible, which was followec by a simple but earnest prayer suited to the day, and the expression of a heart that was intimately acquainted with the Scriptures and no stranger to the delights of commu o o nion with God. After this, all began to pre pare for public worship and if any time re maincd, it was usually occupied in looking over the passage that was to form the sub ject oflecture, which all knew, as the ven erable man of God who was then our minis ter, lectured regularly in course. Whei o ? the ringing of the Parish bell announce! that the hour had arrived when we shouh go up to the house of God, all were ready and glad to go. None stayed behind, am none wished to stay, unless detained by sick ncss. The public exercises of the day were usu ally highly instructive, and deeply imp res sive; and, as evening services then, excep on Sacramental occasions, were exceeding ly rare, they were generally over, about < o'clock, P. M. About 5 o'clock the famil; was again assembled for worship, and ti implore the blessing of God on what the; had heard, and on the means of grace ti all, that the seed which had been sowi might take root, and in due season, in ver many instances might hear much fruit. Ai early tea then followed to recruit the ener gies of the body, and no sooner was i over than all began to attend to the ap propratc duties of the evening?the pa tr? npriKo some of their favorite au , _ thors, anil the children, to learn the * * * * * Catechism. Between 1 and 9 o'clock, the father commenced ask ing the Questions, in the answering of whicl the mother?tor the sake of example a well as for her own improvement?joiner with the children, and the whole of it wa thus gone through every Sabbath evening A few words, in the way of address froi the father, closed this exercise; for, hk Abraham, he ceased not to "command hi children after him, to keep the way of th Lord." All then betook themselves to read ing such works as were suited to their age and the state of their mind, with which th family library was pretty well stored. Sue as the works of the Erskine, of Bostor Guthrie, Halybu.ton, Rutherford, Wilsor Trail, Flavel, Durham, some of Owen'; &c. etc. Between 9 and 10 o'clock, a again assembled for family worship, an -*1 rnct Mc.h afrain in sc WU.-U ,.0. cret commending himself, and all the mem hers of the family, to the care of the Sheji herd of Israel. Such was the Sabbath i: my father's house. It was literally a da spent in religious exercises, or in gainin. religious knowledge,or in seeking the gract or in cultivating the dispositions, which wer to lit us for the Sabbath of heaven, wher some of the family have triumphantly gone and whither the rest, it is hoped, will all ii their appointed season arrive. When I look around me, and see how th Sabbath is generally observed now, even ii families professedly the followers of Christ I cannot help exclaiming?it was not so ii mv father's. The religious arrangement O D of the age, seem to me more calculated fo the outward show of religion, than for tlx cultivation of that piety which has its sea -i? Unft o,\rl whirh norvades Ul>'L'[J III lllU ului uuu ?* J and purifies, and blesses the most inter esting of all earth's associations?the domestic circle. And, with regard t< the almost universal desecration of tin Sabbath?a subject which is justly exci ting so much alarm m the mind of ever friend ofZion?I c;Jftpt help fearing that; no inconsiderable pc^PKi of it has taken it: rise in the trilling manner in which the da; is observed in many families prolessedl; Christian. And until a remedy is appliei here, and the Sabbath in the family at homi becomes more like what it should be, n< great change in the public observance o the day, can reasonably, in my humblt opinion, be expected to take place.
