RELIGIOUS.
~ EARLY PIETY.
.Samuel Wyke Kilpin, when a little boy,
ran up to his father who was working in
the garden, exclaiming, 44 Papa, papa, I
want to ask you a question-Where was my
soul before it came into this body?" -'Mv
dear boy," I replied, 44it would be better
for you to inquire where it will go if it
were now to leave the body?" "O papa,"
said be, with an inexpressible look, 44it will
go to heaven, that is sure, that is settled."
"Alas, my dear boy, I wish it may he os
settled," I rejoined, "that would be of
much greater importance than to know
where it was before it entered the body.
What led you to propose such a question?"
"I don't know," the dear boy replied,
"but it is just entered my mind." Then
! ?.?- I
till" ho mm. Ifecause iiic nine uoy was
young, and had not committed many sins,
he thought lie should surely go to heaven.
Hut, by and by, his mind began to be in a
tumult, occasioned by a new change of
feelings. He began to be conscious that
it was not so certain after all, that he
should go to heaven. Leaving his father
? O
and mother, he made a sudden retreat from
the room; when; with his heart all emotion
and big with sorrow,he shut himself in a
dark parlor unperceived by any one in the
family, ilis mother accidently went into
the room some time after, with a candle,
and found the young penitent on his knees
in earnest. She wasalarmed and disturbed
him; covered with confusion at being
caught in that position, he effected an ini-otro-tt
tn Iiic nun rnnm. Like Saul
of Tarsus he had often presented the
service of the lip to his Maker; he had
been taught with his first lisping voice to
address his Saviour; and I believe the
child-like forms were never omitted, morning
or ming.
Oh! how often had I entreated mv God,
that whilst my child was on his knees repeating
the words of prayer, he would be
pleased to breathe into his soul the spirit
of prayer. My language, was, O that the
Lord, the Spirit would make this child,
like Samuel a spiritual worshipper! He
had feared the Lord from his infancy; but
now behold the lad at seven years o!d,
whose heart the Lord had opened, prostrate
as a poor sinner at the foot of the
cross, pleading for mercy through a crucified
Saviour- His mother had permitted
him to enter his room alone, but kept her
station near the door; his groans and sighs
increased her alarm; she sent for me; I
hastened to him and witnessed a sight that
can never he forgotten. Yes, I beheld
my petitions answered in the agonizing
prayers of my only child. With hands
clasped together, he sat on his bed, bis
eyes turned heavenward; tears plentifully
bedewed his cheeks. I heard him with
indescribable anguish imploring the mercy
of our Lord Jesus Christ. His affectionate
mother at a little distance from him,
sat weeping. Convulsed with different
feelings, I approached his bed, when taking
my hand he exclaimed in agony, "O,
papa, papa! your sermon to-night has
shown me that 1 am a lost sinner. You
said that those persons who had never
gone forth weeping, would never return
rejoicing; and alas! till now I never knew
what sorrow for sin meant; therefore I have
no scriptural right to peace or joy. O,
papa, papa, what shall I do?"
"lie calm my dear," the case is not a
lost one." "But I am lost," he quickly
replied. Clasping his hands, and with a
heart-rendir.g groan said, "I have no right
to joy, if destitute of real sorrow for sin.
I teel that sin is a burden. Oh! I have
been deceived all these years! what an
awful tiling is self-deccption! U ttiat tlie
Spirit would witness with my spirit that I
m born of God."
Earlv the next morning he entered the
room where his father was, and, with his
usual bow and salutation, said; "Good
morning papa!" "Good morning, my dar?
ling, how are you? Come to my arms, I
wish to ask you a question or two. When
at your door last night I heard you exclaim
with great eagerness,?40 that the Spirit
would witness with my spirit that I am
born of God/ Did you mean that the
great and blessed God would speak to
you, a poor sinner, with a voice from
heaven?"
With a look that now rends my heart
lie said," "No, papa, I should be ashamed
of such a thought."
"Well, my child," I replied, "I am glad
that you had no such desire or expectation.
But tell me, what you did mean."
"I meant/, he said, with the firmness
of a man fifty years old, "that I wished
the Holy Spirit would work in my heart
what he has written in the Bible, and then
let me see it?"
"And do you now desire that your whole
heart may be sanctified and devoted to
God?"
"Yes. nana," he replied witli strong
emotion, "I do."
"Cleave then to the Saviour, my dear
child, praying for his mercy, and it shall
be granted,"
lie did so, and in a short time found
peace in the Lord Jesus Christ.
He had experienced that great change
of heart termed by the Redeemer being
born again, and destitute of which all other
changes would have been ineffectual to
his salvation. Without this soul-transforraing
change, with all his amiable qualities,
he would now be the oompanion of different
beings from those with whom he associated
on earth. Tremendous thought!
Parents, be not satisfied with superficial
religion for your children. Be not hasty
to pronounce their state safe on slight evidence;
but wrestle mightily with God, till
'Christ be formed in them the hope of glory
Li/e of Kitpin.
A serious mistake.?A correspondent
in one of our exchange papers writes?"I
hope Heaven will forgive me for voting for

answi-r t V
, We do not no.iec this as a novel express-!
; ion, but as indicative ot the low sense, which i
| many have, cf their personal unworthincss
11 in the sight of God. In their feelings and i
j conduct there is no reference to his glory, j
and of course, they are yet 'dead in tres-, j
| passes and sin." The natu'ral affections j
J however cultivated, and however lovely in J
' i their exhibition, are not holiness; and the j
! strictest morality of conduct,where the heart j
i is estranged from God, is not religion. |
I When weighed in the balance it will be !
i found wanting, and .vill avail its possessor, j
, if he have rested upon it, no'hing.
How often do we hear men appeal to {
j ''Heaven's high chancery" in vindication of;
! their conduct, or of the purity of their !
j motives; forgetting that in that court, they !
j are "already condemned." The whole 1
i tenor of their conduct and conversation!
I shows that they are the children of disobedi-1
| cncc, "upon whom alidcth the wrath of
! God." On this subject many arc strange.
I ly ignorant, and fatally misapprehended,
" 1 'i .. c ii i..

I to Christ lor refuge, will perish, lie canot,

who cat/W his death ought surely to be
most severely punished.

j PROPOSED DIHLE CONVENTION. '
j -1 Circular prepared by direction of the Charles.
j ton Bible Society.
Charlestlik, May 1637.
Sir:?The Managers of the Charleston Biblo
Society, have appointed the under?igned, a com.
1 mittec to prepare and send fortli a Circular, inviting
the several Bible Societies in the Stato to (
unite with them by their delegates, in a Conven- ,
tion, to be held at Columbia, on Tuesday the 5th
I December 1637.
The objocts to be secured by such a Conven,
tion. are to ascertain what has been done in this
I State for the last four or five years in giving
I circulation to the Bible; what factsmay be col.
J lected, which will throw light upon our yet rc!
tnaining destitutions; whether it is expedient, to
ngage simultaneously in rcsupplying the State
i with the Word of Life upon a plan siivilar to
{that which was agreed upon in Columbia, several
! years ago; and if so, by what means and by what j
agencies the plan can be most fully and thoroughly,
and jcdiciously carried into effect, so j
that our entire reading population, have free ac- i '
j cess to copies of the Holy Scriptures in their '
J own possession. And finally to deliberate upon
any other subject connected with the diffusion
of the Bible, whether at home or abroad, in
Christian or in heathen lands. 1
The general fact is known, that districts of '
' country, which have been thoroughly supplied
I ono year have contained many destitute families
| he next; and what is true of one district is true
I of all the rest, as the same causes operate to ereate
the want, viz: the formation of new families,
! the immigration of others, and the wearing out of
i the Bibles themselves* In most cases where a
re-snpply has been uader-takrn, after an interval
of four or five years, the destitution has been
found full half as great as at tho period t>f the
original supply, and in some cases greater, from
i the causes already assigned. Wc allude to this (
I fact becauso it was one of the principal motives j .
j which induced the Managers of the Charleston ]
| Bible Society to propose a convention.
The Committee regard it as superfluous tourgo
i tho subject upon your consideration by any fur.
j ther remarks, as all the reasons for a Convention,
I which wc could submit, must be farmiliar to your j
I mind. All that wc have so solicit, is, that you
would call the attention of your society to the j
proposition, that should they deem it expedient, J (
delegates may be appointed to represent your So. j (
ciety in the Convention.
Wc have the honor to subscribe ourselves, in (
name, and by the appointment of the Managers j j
of the Charleston Bible Society your fellow la. j j
borers in the Bible cause. I (
