THOSE WHO ARE IIEARRERS ONLY.
Those who are hearers of the word only, :
Sr. James com or. res to a man beholding his i
4 t . j
riafur.il Uce m a glass : perceiving on it i
Kpo s ut.d blemishes which should be remor. !
ed. but when he turns from the view, his
mind is so pre-occupied with other objects
uud oiiei thoughts, that he straightway forgot
eth what manner of man he was ; and
suffers these deformities to remain, without
adopting ary measures for their removal.
And why is it that the word of truth, which j
is able to save the soul, do k not produce its ;
designed effect on all ? Because all will not j
took into this mirror, for the purposes ofcon- i
viction and instruction in righteousness. J
Few indeed vo'uitarily turn to it. Few
hear more of" the word of truth" than is
obtruded upon their attention by the differ- {
ent services of God's house, to which cus. j
torn brings them: and thoy come to it with
iniinis so unprepared, that the seed sown
cannot strike root ; with hearts so pre-oc. <
cupied by worldly interests and affections, \
that die word preached cannot profit them, j
The most awakening, impressive, and off
ecting declarations of" the word of truth"
strike upon hearts which have been made a
hard aod beaten thoroughfare to the world )
and its vanities, and can make there no im. j
press ion. They can hear Christ himself j
declare in his v.or" Except ye repent ye i
shnll perish : unless a man be born again "he j
cannot see the kingdom of God." " They
can hear that word of truth declare, that
u i hout holiness no man can see the Lord :
and not only do these awfully awakening
declarations tail in bringing them to exam,
ine whether :hey have been themselves, the
subjects of tfios'j mportant charges, without
which this highest and most infallible au.
tboriv has pronounced that their desiny
shall be everlasting perdition, but they fail in
. i
exciting even a transient curiosity to *uuw
what those mysterious, and to tbem unintelligible,
charges mean, winle yel they aie
pronounced thus essential to their salvation.
Ir is true that ihey ihus escape all painful
convictions of sin, all the horrors of a disturbed
conscience, all distressing fears about
the future : but oh ' remember that ths
apathy of soul is but as the dead calm of
nature which precedes the bursting of the
earthquake or volcano ; that it is but the stupor
of moral death ; that it is out the awful
wtillness and the dark clouding of the gathering
tempest, from which the thunders of
an angry heaven will shor'ly burst, and
which will enwrap the wreck of a desolated
soul in the blackness of daakness for ever.
But there are some in whose minds the
hearing of*4 the word of truth" awakens tran.
tent convictions, which yet are as the grass
growing upon the house-top, that withcreth
afore it growcth up. Instead of studying to
cherish und deepen these impressions ; converting
every couvi.-tion into a prayer for
per>cvering grace ; reducing every good lo
practice, s? that it may become a habit of
mind and life, they return into the world,
dissippate tarery serious feeling in levity and
worldmess. Thus they live on, now convinced
and repenting, the next moment unconvinced
and sinning ; each flowing wave
whLh the world pours in upon their minds
obliterating the faint characters, whie'1, during
its ebb, " the sword of the Spirit" had
traced upon their hearts. There are but few
minds formed of sucb firm materials as to
retaiu an impression through unfavourable
and opj)osing circumstances. To most, the
last speaker, who speaks with power suffi.
cient to impress tiiero, gives the tone and
character. And, therefore, it would
be wise, as it is but decent and seem
ly that in our meetings for public worship
the last speaker should be the minister of
God ; the last voice which each hears in the
house of God that which has implored upon
him the blessing of the sacred Trinity : and
that the spirit in which he returns :o his home
should be that calm serenity, that holy peace
that unworldly spirit of communion with
God. with which u?e minister of God dismis
aed him. Instead of this, it is too generally
the case, that greeting and salutations, the
news of the day. the business of the morrow,
cares or pleasures, levity or world iness in
whatever guise, dissipate the impressions
which the services of God's house were designed
to produce. Upon a meeting in
which God has promised Hisespeci.l presence,
another meeting is grafted by Satan,
in which every man preaches vanity to his
neighbour; and, like the fowls of the air,
picks up the good S'-eii sow n i his heart, lest
he shou d believe and be sat ed. When our
public services have closed, all should separate
as soon as propriety permits. Each
should return to Ins respective home, and
seek to earry with him the spirit and the
impressions which they produced. He
show Id retire to his closet, and shut to the
?g&j|&4|oort nd meditate upon the word spoken,
^Jppand pray o his Father which is in secret.
Ho should plead w ith him His own promises
for a blessing upon Hisown word ; and
in the strength of litis spiritual meat, he
should enter upon his daily walk of life with
renewed vigour, and with renewed purposvs
of patient and active obedience. Then
will he be, not a hearer only.?not a forgetful
hearer, who lias trifled away opportunities,
and sinned away convictions; who has
res sted, grieved, and quenched the divine
Spirit, until at length he has been abandoncd
by a long suffering God, and given over
to a 1 undiscerning and unfeeling mind : but
he will be one of 'hose of w hom the Apostle
proceeds to speak, who 44 looketh into the
fiifi n/>r(flAt I .tit nArthttii/if K
%..w jr uwv-i taw ujvi auu vuu.iuu^iu
therein ; he not being a forgetfultfu! hearer,
but a doer of ihe worJ and of whom he
pronounces thatM this man shall be blessed
jn his deed."
RESURRECTION.
Many think to avoid difficulties urged by
cuvilers against the doctrine of a resurrection,
by denying the identity of the risen
body with that which died, and by introducing
the figment of u merely special, or airy j
vehicle, or othc.ria! casement, or if they do, j
/lot exclude every thing material from the j
i-.oscd body, yet they think it indifferent
h t|ft ( ojic'r i'**oi ; i;i9 * '
the old body or not, and so tiiey make the I
resurrection to bo a new creation. Thus i
hey remove every objection by sacrificing
the doctrine. Against the resurrection ]
which they teach, there is plainly no room I
for caviling. Against that which Paul taught, i
y his own confession. Thr re is nothing ! j
more evid nt from the Sorip'ures, than t at j
the resurrect on is represented to b<- a j i
change, and not a creation. 4* These vi!e | I
bodies shall be changed, and made like to . i
Christ's glorious body." The very same i
44 which is so wn ic dishonor,'' is to be ,4 raised i,
in glory." The very same '* that was sown j i
in weakners, is to be raised in power." 1 lie i
very '4 coruptible is to put on incorruption," i
and" this identical *4 mortal is to wear im- !
| mortality." If the raised bony shall not, ,
be, in a measure, the same with that which
uJlV i? it nulieda resurrec- ;
j we now ? ?
lion of ilie body, and not the creation of a \
body/ Why "are the graves to open, if j
nothing is to come out of them 1 Why are ! i
the cnr:I? and the sea spoken of as delivering i_
up their dead, if this theory be true ? Such j
modes of expression as thesejust referred j
to, must be a Jmifed to teach indentity at tlie i,
two grand points of death and the resurrec? i
[ sion. If any curiously ask the puzzling i
quostion?" Whrein consists this in identity,"
! I reply," If you please, we will let this ie.
main a puzzle until tho morning of the resurrection.
But if not, will you tell us where- I
in consists the identity of the body you now I
possess, and that you had twenty or thirty ;
years ago ? And if you cannot tell, why j
then, do you call it the same ?" Yet all j
men do thus think and speak. As to the
I difficulty of find:ng, and recognizing, arid
re-animating tho par;ides, it is enough to
ask?" Is any thing too hard for God ?"
' Why shoulJ it be thought a thing impos-.
iblc with you that God should raise the j
dead V*

LETTER FROM LORD BYRON,
TO JOHN SHEPPARD, ESQ.,
In answer to a letter communicating a copy
of a prayer, written by the deceased wife
of the latter gentlemen, and evidently in
behalf of Lord Byron.
Pisa, Dec. 8. 1821.
Sir,?I have just received your letter. I
oeed not say, that the extract which it contains
has atF< ct< d me, because it would imply
a want of all feeling to have read it with
indifference. Though I am not quite sure
that it was intended by the wri er lor me, yet
the dale, the place where it was written, with
some other circumstances which you men-!
tion, render the allusion probnble. But, |
for whomsoever it was meant, I have read I
1 it with a'l the pleasure that can arise !
! from so melancholy a topic. I say 1
\ pleasure, because your brtef and sini- j
| pie picture of the life excellent person j
I whom I trust that you will again meet, connot
be contemplated without the admiration
due to her virtues, and iter pure and unprctending
piety. Her last moments were particularly
striking ; and I do not know, that
in the course of reading the story of mankind,
and still less in my observations of the
existing portion, I ever met with any thing
so unostentatiously beautiful. Indisputably,
the firm believers in the gospel have a great
advantage overall others,?for this simple!
reason, that, if true, they will have their re. j
ward hereafter ; and if there be r.o hereof- ^
jer, they ean be but with the infidel in his j
eternal sleep, having had the assistance of !
i an exalted hope, through life, without sub. i
sequent disappointment, since (at the worst j
for them) " out of nothing can arise," not
even sorrow. But a man's creed does not!
j depend upon himself; who can say, I will i
I believe,?this,?that,?or the oilier ? and, i
least of all, that which he least can rompre.
hend. I have, however,observed, that those
who have begun life with an extreme faith,
have in the end greatly narrowed it, as
Chillingworth, Clarke, (who ended as an
j Arion,) Bayle, and Gibbon, (once u Oath- i
i olic,) and some others ; while, on the other 1
| hand, nothing is more common than for the !
j early sceptic to end iu a firm belief, like
; Maupertius, and Hcrry K'rk White.
! But rny business is to acknowledge your ,
i letter, and not to make a dissertation. 11
am obliged to ycu for your good wishes, i
| and more than obliged by the extract from j
i the papers of the beloved object whose qua I. j
ties you have so well descr.bed in a few
words. 1 can assure you that all t e fame
which ever cheated humanity into higher nolions
of Jts own importance, would never
weigh in my mind against the pure and pious
interest which a virtuous being may be
pleased to take in my welf re. In this point
of view, I would not exchange the prayer
of the deceased in my behalf for the united
glory of JHomer, Ccesar, and Napoleon, j
could such be accumulated npon a living
head. Do trie at least the justice to suppose,!
that
''Video meiiora probo que,"
however the u Deteriora sequor" may havt:
! been applied to my conduct,
i have the honor to he,
Your obliged ar.d obedient Servant. .
BYRON.
P. S. I do not know that 1 am addressing
a clergyman but 1 presume that you will not
be affronted by thomistnke (if it is one) in
the address of this letter. One who has so
well explained, and deeply felt the doctrines
of religion, will excuse the error which led
me to believe him its minister.

THE CHRISTIAN TO BE IMPROVED BY SUFPEfi. |
IXC.
I am pr ne, in my s arc of weakness, fo !
several tilings which I condemn. Some- J
times I am fretful at my sufferings, and;
feeling myself to be only a useless being. I
! burdensome to myself and to others, 1 am j
j impatient to die. Sometimes, when I am j
I a litt'e more easy, I feel anxious to live :
| and more frequently 1 am so occupied with '
my infirmities, or with the remedies which
I am obhged to employ, that I enn think of \
scarcely any tit ng else. All t!<i i ii wrong ; i i
,,, ?}>.< hrw-M'!'.)? strmc * * n\* '"'* 1
lave much to do. Weakness and pain are
not only to be endured but to be improved, y
They are to make me more conscious that
[ am a feeble and helpless creature in the
liana's of an omnipotent God, and therefore .
more humble, and more dependent: they j
are to penetrate my mind with a stronger ;
conviction of the demerit of sin ; they are to ;
make me live by faith on the care of God,
through J< sus Cnrisl ; they arc to detaon
mv affections from the things of earth, and to j
make me think much of eternity ; and they 1 .
are to break down my self-will, making me !
like a little child, in the hands of God,?
submissive, docile, and contented to have
no will but his. For this he lias appointed
them: "For whom the Lord loveth lie
ehnstenrfh. and scounreih everv son whom !
he receiveth?not for Mis own pleasure, but 11
for our profit, that we may bo partakers of j j
his holiness." 1 will, therefore, with the j
help of God, try to improve every hour of j i
me.t'cness and suffering. VVnat are my suf- I
feriogs compared with wlia* might have J
been justly inflicted on me ? Never may I 1 '
be impatient again ! If I think how much j ('
good I may d-.rive from them, this will ake j i
them even sweet. If*I keep mv mind fixed ; <
on that spiritual improvement, I ahull uiot j '
fail to secure it. And so this "light utflic- ! ,
tion, which is but for a moment, will work j <
out for me a far more exceeding and etern-1 (
al weight of glory." |1

OF THE
AMERICAN SILK SOCIETY
AND
RURAL ECONOMIST. I
At a Convention which met at Baltimore on
bo 11th of Dccomber la6t, composed of a great
lumber of gentleman from- various parts of the
[Jnion, distinguished for their public services, I
latriotism add practical intelligence, the follow. I
ng resolutions were unanimously adoptedResolved,
That it is the deliberate opinion of j
his convention that Silk may be grow n in all j
Lhe United States not only for domestic purpo. !
(os, but as a valuable article of commercial !
;xport?thereby giving an employment to Amcr- j
can labour, and retaining millions of dollars in
Mir couutry that are annually sent out of it for
.ho purchaso of silken goodfc.
Resolved, That a National Silk Journal ought
:o be established under tho auspices of the Ex. I
jcutive Committee and all the funds over and
lbovc tho support of said paper ought to be do.
iroted to the advancement of tho silk cause in
the United States.
Under the latter resolution, J. S. Skinner, of
Baltimore, was invited to become the editor of
the Work, and has consented to do so?as far as
nay be consistent with the strict performance
cil his public duties.
In the course of the discussions which took
placo in the Convention, all the difficulties which
lave been encountered, and which may yet bo
lpprehendcd, in the prosecution of the silk culture
13 a great branch of American industry, were
fuily considered ; and the result was an univer.
sal conviction that, now in the words of the
resolution, 'Silk may be grown in the United
States, not only for domestic purposes, but as a
yaluablo article of commercial export.' The
suitableness of our soil and climate to the growth
mi health of the worm, and the trees which
supply its food ; capabilities, the habits, and
rjeuius of our people for conducting the business
Ihruogh its whole process, and the price of
American labour as compared with that of silk,
produring countries, all were fully convasstd
and the most sceptical became satisfied. The
fact is, that oar unrestricted freedom in the en.
tcrtainment and discussion of various and
discordant doctrines religious and political, has
imparted to us, as to our English ancestry, an
omnivorous appetite for knowledge, and a capacity
to learn in a few years what cannot be
acquired in ages, where all is dull conformity
to routine of thought and of action! Thus
has it hippenod in manufactures, as in other
things, American; ingenuity, unrestrained by
prejudice or law, has triumphed over difficulties
apparently insurmountable! IIow long may it
be asked after our first cotton spindle was put in
motion before Yankee Lowell's were sold at a
profit in China ? So will it be with silk. The
only question is as to how long it shall take us ?
With a monthly j mrnal to co contrate and
diffuse every ray of floating light on the subject
it was tho opinion of the Convention that we
may Jrealize and enjoy in our own day, the
boqp which indolcnco and want of concert may
procrastinate, but which nothing short of
Turkish apathy can finally defeat.
Let all who inay feol any concern as culti.
patriots willing to offer suitable occupation and
bread to the unemployed and the helpless, come
forward in support of a work to be faithfully and
honestly devoted to these objects of private hap.
pincss, and of national independence.
Though Silk, and every thing connected with
its production, and all improvements in machinery
for its preparation and manufacture, will consti'"'a
