From the Life of Martin Boos,
TBS FARMER'S WIFE.
A woman of the name of Klambaur had
often flood at the clergyman's door, for the
purpose of pouring out her heart to him,
but a certain fear had always driven her
down the steps again. At length she took
courage, went to hitn, and thanked him with
many tears for all his sermons. Boos, who
knew from her confessions, that she was
stiii distressed and uneasy in her conscience
told her to her face, that although she took
pleasure in hearing his sermons dn faith in J
Christ, and now had thanked him for them;
yet Ire was afraid she did not really believe
what be preached.
She said Oil yes, I believe all that you
preach."
* Boos. 1 doubt it. I perceive by your
nneasjness and the distress which you carry
about with you ia your heart, because of
your sins that unbelief stiii lodges within you
and that you cannot fully believe that God
has also forgiven you your sins, for Christ's
sake, and is willing to send his Holy Spirit
htto your heart."
She now began to weep, and said, "Yes,
I am certainly still defective in that respect:
I am too great a sinner ; it if not possible
that God can forgive me everything."
uBqps. Klambaur, I qm a greater sinner
than you, yet was not only possible for God
to pardon me, but also the sinner at the feet
" " ' C
of Jesus, the woman 01 ounidnu, him.
Faul, the thief on the cross, dir. it will
therefore be possible for him to pardon you.
See, how you offend God at this moment
by your unbelief. Shame upon you to sin
in this manner before me. your pastor.
She w< pt more and more, and could not
reply for wiping. She was terrified, and (
did not venture to repeat that she wrs too
great a sinner, and that it was not possible
ibr God to pardon her. Boos now convinced
Iter from many passages of Scrip'ure,
that God pardons the greatest sinners
through faith in Christ, that righteousness
is attained, and received, not by works but
by faith; and that in this respect there
was tie difference between a farmer's wife,
a clergyman, and u mulefactor. (Rom. iii.
*2,36)
"Therefore have the goodness, Klamhour,"
continued he, "and accept of n truly
great gift, for the many alms which you
have given to the poor, and to my chaplains
who dine with you when they have to
8? to n distance. Brieve me, that God, f
our heavenly Father, loves vou so much,
that he is not only willing, to present you
with a darge sum of money?not merely
heaven and earth, but something even still
greater?his only-begot:on Son with all
his righteousness and holiness, as a free
gift. He is also willing to forgive you all
your sins, and you have nothing more to do
than to believe, and to open your hands and
heart, your mouth and ears to receive the
mighty dona-' ion. Do you believe this V*
Amidst a flood of tears, she answered
' " L - 11 ?;? J
W1U1 'I IUUU VUlt'oi "4 ViUIUNJl uu uuivi n im,?
1 must believe!"
"Blessed art thou," said Boos, "that thou
canst not do otherwise " Go in peace, !
thy sins are forgiven thee?thy saying that
thou mu*t believe has, saved thee."
"Kkimbarir. But I cannot go yet ; I feel
as hnppy as if i were in heaven; if you
will pormit me, I will stay a while lon.er.
I never felt so during my whole life!" She
stayed till the evening, and took home with
her the peace of God wh ch pnsseih al! unstand
i hg.
But thr?*e days after, she came again
despoading and weeping, saving, "All, I
have lost my peace, it is all over with me.
1 shall scaro ly be saved."
"Boos. But why not ?"
uKlambaur. Oh, because I am n farmer's
wife, keep an inn, have a drunken husband,
and am the mother of many children ; I
have too many temptations d's'ractions, and
occupations ; it will not do for me."
Boos smiled and said, "I nnt now sure
tliut the faith you expr-ssed three days ago
is a true and real faith, since it is already
so violently assaulted. Only take courage,
let not your confidence fail. If there were
any station in life, in which people could
rot believe in Jesus, and live and be happy
in hiin. Jesus would never have commanded
the gospel to be preached to every creature, j
be would have been obliged expressly losny j
Except to brewers, and inn keepers, and to i
women who have drunken husbands, many
children and much company?preach it not
to them, they cannot believe, and have not
time to bo saved. But Jesus has .said no
such iliing. Therefore go boldly forward,
keep your footing and cry, Stuud back, Satan
!n
"Klambavr. Well, then, I must try it
one? more; but I really thought I could not
possibly be saved." And again she departed
with the peace of God she had pre
viousljr felt. But she afterwards frequently
expressed the wish to be permitted to leuvu
her husband, children, and inn.fmeping, and
retire with this faith to some desert place,
or little room in peace.
Not so," said Boos, "remain where you
are, and where God has placed you. The
npostfea and primitive Christians retained
their faith, their love, and inward peace in
the midst, of the world, and they were, men
hke you and me." She therefore went on
her way boldly and joyfully, and held fa.st
her faith. Herself s:?v< d by faith, she
sought also to save others; and she really
succeeded with her female servai.t and her
daughters, her sister, and some of Iter neighbours.
In the year 1814, her husband died/
she might then have retired into a little
room. But now she said, "I have lived
happdy itj faith for five years, whjlsi following
my occupation ; I .will therefore not
: retire from it. My children are still young,
. and their labor ihu present year thirteen or
The great want of faith in God'e ability to
pardon their individual sins, is not regarded as
in by the generality of sinners, but even as virtno
and humility. They are ignorant that
God is honoured by faith and dishonoured by
mistreat and unbelief. Hence at the beginning
of their conversion, they all say, 4God cannot
possibly forgive rae ; my sins are too heinousAll
conversions begin with this unbelieving sortow.
Hence it is necessary to show them that
very nj>belief ia a great sin.
I will bring them up as Christians, and God i
will be a husband to me, and the lather of J
my children." I
She was afterwards not so generally beloved
as before; she had many enemies,
without knowing why. No Abel without a
Caio. To be a Christian, and to be hated <
without a cause, belong together. Go boldly j
forward !
HOW TO REFORM DRUNKARDS.
As the Secretary of the American Tern- '
perance Society was passing in tho puWic ]
stage from Baltimore to Washington, a genteel
looking man accosted him, saying, 1
1 How does the Temperance cause prosper
now V * It goes well/ said the Secretary,
* they do the needful work; it will not go
without labor.' * It is making great pro. '
press,' said he, in our part of the country.
It is most surprising what it is doing. It is
saving many even of drunkards. There
has been a case of a man in my employment,
that has interested me very much. Ho was
a mechanic of the first order, married into
a respectable family, and was once a man
ofpropeity. But he lost it, and became a
drunkard. He had a large family of sons 1
and daughters. The mother struggled long
and hard to support them, and sustain the 1
family but it was too much; she sunk under
if. For more than a year she had been i
confined to her room, the greater part of i
the time to her bed, and she was evidently <
sinking to the grave. Not unfrequently <
they were entirely destitute of provisions ; i
what was earned both by the father and <
* * ** * !! *l?nt? Citnb c
sons was expenaea ror liquor, mi m-/ ???..? t
so low that nobody could trust them; and <
the boys seemed to be stupid, and in a inen. j
sure to have lost their minds by dissipation, f
They were often idle, and uhon they work- \
ed, they would undertake a job as quick for i
a shill.ng as they would for a dollar. They a
seemed hardly to know the difference, and 8
when they got it, they would spend a dollar c
for liquor as quick as a shilling# They sometimes
worked in a factory, but they \
were so stupid that they could not be trus- t
ted to mend a band, or oil a gudgeon, or s
to do any such thing. You could put no c
confidence in them ; and the mother being
sick, and no one to see to anything they,
were most wretched, and seemed to have
no resolution, energy, or desire to do anything,
except just to get the means of imoxu 1
cation. I met the doctor one day, as he
left the house, and asked him what was the j
matter with the woman he onswered, noth- j
ing ,* sho has no disease upon her; it is 8
trouble, nothing but trouble, and their desii- *
tute, wretched condition ; and that will sink *
her to the grave, if she cannot be relieved.
So I thought of it, and resolved thut I would t
make one more effort to savo them. I 1
knew that there was not u m m in the country
who could do better in my business than
he, would he but keep sober and not drink j
anything. One day, when he was sober, I ^
went to him : you know, said I, thut yon ure *
exceedingly wretched, and so is your whole *
family. Your wife is sick nnd will undoub. f
tcdly die, without speedy relief. The great c
cause of her illness is trouble, and your con- *
dition never c.?n bo butter until you relin- 1
qnisli the use* of spirits. If'you will do that, (
I will take you into my employ. IM give ?
you so much, and pay you every week ; t
and in such a lime I will raise your wages. 1
You may yet be a respectable man, support *
your family, and be comfortable. But it r
is all on the condition that vou do not drink (
intoxicating liquor ; and if you do, I wiil 1
have nothing more to do with you. You s
know that I have no such thing in my es- j:
tftblimhment.?The man thought of my offi-r,
and seemed to be affected. I treated him
very kindly, and he finally accepted it, and i
came to the resolution lo drink no more *
from that day. The ensuing day he went J
vt,rt,U nnd lw? rvinducii*] llimttftlf with i
?v " VI ?f uuw I*v .
much proprie ty for ahout a month. His i
boys likewise began to show more interest {
in their own welfare, and trcnted him wiih '
more respect, and one another with greater
kindness. But at the close of about a
month he came to me and said hucoulJ not
get along ; Ins creditors were calling upon ,
him daily, and he could not pay his debts
and support his family. 11 s endeavors
were fruitless and he might as well give up
first as last. His creditors, you see, to
whom he was indebted for liquor, and
whom he before had been unable to pay,
now that he was earning something, were
oonstnntly calling on him for money. I
told him to k< ep to work, he was doing
well, nnd promised to raise his wages. Whenever
credilors call on you again, said I,
send them to me, 1 will deal with them. Me
again went to wo?k. They soon began to
huve things more comfortable in their fam.
ily ; the mother began to recover, and the
boys improved wonderfully. Tliey began
to feel that they had some character, and
being better fed and belter clu.lied, and trea.
I ted with respect and kindness, it hnd a won.
! derrul effect upon thern. The family were
| soon all clothed so as to attend pubi c wor*
| ship, the children were fitted out to the Sabbath
schools, and the younger sons and
daughters sent to schoo during the week,
i wont to the house last autumn, and found
! it well stored with provisions ; they had a
large pile of wood, enough to last them
through winter ; the mother was ahout the
house, and comfortable ; you cannot conceive
what a change there was in the ap|
pearance of things. The father and mother
and the oldest son had become hopefully
pious, and are members of the church.
The third, a few rays ago, bought his time of
his father until he becomes of age giving him
8350 ; and if he continues to do as well as
he is now doing, he will earn tho money,
support himself, and gain several hundred
dollars beside. And those boys, who were
so stupid that they were scarcely capab.e
of domg any thing, arc now the most active,
and en:crprizing, ingenious and capable
youth 1 ever saw. They can do almost
anything. I have a case of few things in ,
my pocket, which ih'*y manufactured. See i

which they had wrought, of the most beautiful
proportions and exquisite workmanship,]

"And here I cannot avoid a passing re- j
Terence to the fact, of the very happy in flu- fj
ence of a due and fervent attendance upon
religious exercises, public and private in
bringing the mind home to its starting
points, and in its recovery of that clearness 1
and freshness of perception, and of that 1
well poised self-control and easy appliancy
which are lost in a course of severe appli- .
cation. 1 am prepared to aflirm that, to
the studious especially, and whetheryoung- f
or or older, a Sunday well spent?spent .
in happy exercise of the heart, devotional ?
and domestic?a Sunday given to the soul, jj
is the best of ail means of refreshment for p

a liquefaction of ihe entire nature?* dispersive
process dispelling mental cramps and
- - ?
stagnations, and enabling every single in. .
culty again to get its due in the general
diffusion of the intellectual power." si
Never give h command which you are not
resolved to see obeyed. To give commands
which you have not time, or ability, J
or perhaps intention, to inforce, is to inoul* '
2ate disobedience. If, therefore, you make
i promise, keep it. If yeu say that neglect >fduty
shall be followed by punishment,be *
jure to inflict it. If you require, a ch.ld to
lo this or that, see that it is done exactly as J
fou require i'. By keeping this important
trinciple in mind, you will take care not to

The trees are very super or, generally from 6 to ,
10 feet high, growing on dry sandy land, in rows j
from 4 to 8 feet apart, and standing, generally, (
at lrom 2 to 3 feet in the row. Main stems and |

It is estimated that the lot will yield from four

cutiin. s, as I know from last spring's experience,
grow almost as certainly as rooted plants, even j
with bad management in an unfavorable season,
more especially when grown themselves from .
rooted plants, as nr. he case with many of those ;
here offered. It is confidently believed that very
few if any lots of trees are for sale in the country ,
which afford so large a number of so good cat.
tings. They aro worth visiting from a distance
by a person wishing to purchase so groat a num.

the trees stand is within a few hundred yards of
