WVINR INFLUENCE. j Now this constitutes one great pre-emi. j nonce of the Holy Scriptures, and is fitted to show the obligations of the world to this sacred volume. It has higher claims to our regard even than the excellence of its truths. It reveals the existence and interposition of an omnipotent agent, known in the of redemption by Jesus Christ, whose province it is to enlighten and renovate the heart, and give power ami energy to his own revelations. Tin's can be affirmed of no false religion- Just before the author of die gospel left our world for his throne in the heavens, he promised his disciples that he would send the heavenly Paraclete, who should " reprove the world of s;n, ol righteousness and of judgment who w should guide into all truth who should take of the thingsthnt are Christ's, and show them un o his people." Therehgion of the Ihble therefore has this high and peculiar pledge of its efficacy, that it is associated with an omnipotent agency, which, by its control over the intellectual faculties and moral dispositions renders the truth which God has revealed effectual in the moral transformation of men. God has revealed himself in the Scriptures as O le in Three. So distinct arc the thr?*o, that they sustiin distinct offices in tlio work of redemption, and possess the properties of distinct persons; and yei so intimalely are they identified in the divine nature, that thev are the One only living and true Jehovah. Tnis is a great mystery, and we receive it on the testimony of God. The Holy Spirit is not a mere influence, or power, or emanation of the Deity, hut a liv? ing agent, to whom the Scriptures ascribe in elligence, choice, and power. He i6 represented as teaching, instructing, dictating, j commanding, commissioning, sending forth,! convincing, sanctifying, and bearing wit. ness. To him are appropriated the true and proper names of the Deity. He is apoken of as eternal, omnipresent, omniscient and as one who is worshipped as God. He is the direct and immediate Author of tho Scriptures, while miraculous gifts and ope. rations are every where ascribed to his i power. There are also in iuternal opera-j tious of the Spirit; that, is, operations immediately exerted upon the mind itself. It " rviif.HiMAA f/\ illii.vMrmio ?Ko lonopont id 11*9 I'iovihv^ iv an milium i*- iug i^iiuiam , and benighted ; to awaken the thoughtless; to convincothe obura:e ; to renew and sanctify the heart to comfort and seal the heirs of salvation for their final inheritance, and fit them for the glory to be hereafter revealed. Tno truths of the Scriptures, though divine in their origin, are only the instrumental cause of all holy impressions. Their saving efficacy, in all cases, depends on the power and agency of (he Holy Spirit. Nor are the nature and mode of this influcence altogether undefined. It i9 in every in. stance connected ivi'h the truth : imparting to the mind clear perceptions of what God has revealed in his word and rendering these perceptions impress ve and effectual to tin? formation of a spiritual character. VIM r*-^err - tf n r* *rr agency of the Spirit its cause. The terms and illus rations by which the Scriptuir9 represent the work of the Spirit are strongly significant. Sometimes it is represented by the metaphorical language of the4* new Linh." When, in the moral history of man, a rebel becom-s a child, it is because he is44 begotton, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of he wil of man but of God." Sometimes it is exhibited as a44 new creation." When fromtheconfusion, darkness nud disorder of the natural mind, inen are formed anew, and adorned with all the glories of a spiritual transformation ; they are wrus workmanship, created anew in Christ Jesus afer the image of him that; created them*" Sometimes it is set forth as a 44 resurrection from the dead." If the dead in sin burst the bars of their cold sepulc'ire and come forth; it is becuuse 44 he quickens them," and his Spirit is the sole o. .1... - nf ihie nuvv nrrl Knlv life. If the Hf). OU'UUI IH ,,VV 1 ostare child of Adam becomes the child of God; it his moral nature Jives by new culture and his faculties acquire a new development ; if he sustains new relations, posessea new tastes, preferences, and pleasures ; if he is devoted to new pursuis : if lie has a new heart awl a new spirit; it is from * the washing of regeneration and the renewing of the Holy Ghost." " fie that hath wrought him for thisselfrs me thing is God." Presbyterian. The following communication signed by ten of the principal members of the Baptis denomination, in this city, and published in the Christian Secretary of last week, will be read with grateful interest hy many of the friends ofZion. Hartford Congrcgalionlist. it is delightful to contemplate the opera., tions of divine grace, in sulxJuinga rebel heart, and causing an immortal spirit to inhale the vital air of heaven. A proper estimate of the human soul cannot fail to inspire the friends of the Redeemer with holy delight at the repentance of any sinner, however isolated his condition on earth; because the fruition of " an eternal weijht of glory is the certain consequence to the individual, instead of" shame and everlasting contempt."- But in proportion as that individual ocupies a station of eminence in society, and is capable, by the influence he may exert, of moulding other minds, so is his conversion from sin ;o holiness an event to be regarded as an important one, and calls for the grateful acknowledgments of the friends of Christ. It will be remembered by some, that at the late session of the Hartford Baptist As sociation, an inquiry was made?" Who is the editor of the Christian Secretary ?" The reply was?"Our esteemed and much lamented brother Rev. Elisha Cushman was Ed itpr, at the commencement of lis new j existence, ana his son, Elisha Jr., was publisher ; but death has removed the former from the scene of his labors, and his son still continues his publisher. For a time Brother Turobull paid some attention to the paper, but he has removed to Boston, and Mr. Elisha Cushman now has the sole management of the concern. Mr. Cush. fliao-M well qualified in all respects, to fill he editorial department, excepting that he i s destitute of that essential qualification, a I tew heart. Pray for him dear brethren i Jiutu a new heart may be given him," and j f God shall graciously hear our prayers for ( lis convers-on, we shall have an able Edi- ; or." Under such circumstances, who that loves l he prosperity of Zion, and the souls of men, -an but rejoice to learn thai our esteemed i Viend, Mr. Elisha Cushniun, is, we trust, | hrough grace, enabled to say" I love the i Lord because lie hath heard my voice, and i my supplications. Because lie halh in< iin- i id his ear unto me," [See Psalmcvi. 1 to 8.] i The hearts of the disciples hive been < made to rejoice at the declaration of his faith in Christ, and his public grateful dedication of himself to God and His cause. We shall no: at this time attempt a detail of the process of mingled mercy and judg. menl* through which our young friend has been brought by the Holy Spirit, from die mazes of scepticism to a firm footing on the Rock of salvation. Suffice it now to say with the Poet, " Great is the work, the brethren cry, And own tbo power divine ; ^ a Im n'rtrlr An* hn<irto vnnltr \yruai i? iuu nw mwu uuui vo And bo the glory thine." We cannot wi lihold the expression of our ardent wish, that our brethren may uni:e tviih us in thanksgiving to God for his good, ncss, and as the fruit of this spirit of thank, fulness, make every suitable effort to extend the patronage of the Christian Secre. tary, that it may afford a competent support to our highly respected friend arid his widowed mother* whom since the decease of his honored fatlier, ? he has taken to hie own house." Will not our brethren do this? Moreover, we think a strong appeal may be made to the friends of the Secretary for their renewed, and increased efforts to extend the patronage of the paper, from the fact, that Mr. Cushman has, since the change in his mind, relinquished his connection with the Northern Courier, a profi table political paper, end will now be able to bring his whole mind to the editoiiaj department of the Secretary. The event to which we% parti culary allude, which was lite means of fixing Mr. Cuslunan's mind with solemnity on the great interests of his sou), was the sadden decease of a beloved rclativc,44 taken away as by a stioke," from his domcstic circle. ANGER DOBS NO G 00. ' Oh ! see how that cruel fellow is beat, ing his poor beast !" said Arthur Howard to his father and his brother George, as thev were going ou: for an early country walk. Arthur's attention had been excited by a shabbily-dressed man who was bela. bouriag a rough-coated, feeble, and blind old horse, that was dragging, of raiher attempling to drag, a cart with a heavy lo id of vege'ables to market. The poor creature tried, and tried, but could not get the wheels out of the rut in which they had Utolt ? Aftdjiip rlrivt*r. whose anger increased wi:h the increased but vain attempts of the horse to move onward, was dealing out Ins blows most unmercifully about the aniniaPs legs and head, and swearing more loudly, and lay in z on more violently at every stroke. 44 What an almminable rascall!" exclaimed Ar hur again : * I'll?I'll ?" and nuay he scampered, almost os much in a passion os the mun whom he was going tojjreprimand nnJto punish. 44 Now see," said his father to George, 44 in what an unfit s'atc Ar hur is for doing a humane thing. He intends to act kindly nud generously, but he will most likely make matters worse. lie will only exasperate the man the more; and Me poor beast w ill be the sufferer for his imprudence." " What do you mean, you worthless va guhond !" cried Arthur, when, out of breath and hardly able to find words for his rage, he catne up to the carter. 44 What?what do you mean by treating the poor horse so wickedly V* 44 What do you mean, Mr. lmper inent! Ttere?that's what I mean !" Upon which h? \nnea upon the silent and suffering creature with far greater violence thun before, and smote him so ferociously, that every blow made Arthur's heart shud* der within him. 4iAnd now, young gentleman, if you don't move off," said the man,44 mayhap 1 may try how you like the stick upon your own shoulders, by way of teaching you how to meddle with other people's concerns." Arihur was n boy of humane nnd generous disposi:ions, and he could not immed. i.itvily see that he had done anything wrong by giving way to what he had peihaps thought, us many others would have thought, a natural and proper sentiment of indigna. tion ; y.' t he felt he must have made some mistake for he had failed in his purpose, nnd, with a"spirit somewhat broken and subdued, he run back to his father and his brother. 44 Well, my boy !" were the first words he heard from his father ; ,4and what have you got by throwing yourself into such a towering passion ?" * Mow could i help it papa, when 1 saw that man's frightful cruelty ?" 4< But has your passion been of any service to you, Arthur? Did it help you to persuade the cru< I man, or to rescue the suffering beu6t ? You intended to do what was humane, 1 know ; but you set about it rashly. Your anger was more vio. lent than your reason. You were more bent upon punishing than preventing an offence ; and though you proposed to do good, you have only done evil." A But tell us, papa !" said Georgo, whose temper was more sedate, and whose judg. merit more cool than his bro her's, 44 is an., ger never justifiable?never commendable ? Must one see ail sorts of wicked and im? proper conduct, and not be angry with it? I have often heard indignation called gen. erous, and anger victorious. Are they nev. or so V 44 Never, my son ! for what is anger ? It is pain?pain inflicted on yourself; by which you are excited to inflict pain on on?ther. It may be necessary to inflict pain >n another for that other's good, and for i he good of society ; but yo?:r being angry s just the way to prevent you from propery judging what pain, and how much pain t bright to inflict in order to produce 'hal rood. Now, W Arthur, instead of breaking mit into a storm of passion, hud first cod3idered what he really meant to do, which was to induce that ignorant man to refrain from misusing that unfortunate beast, he would have prevented three mischiefs?the mischief of being in a passion, with all its pains, annoyances, and disappointnrnts ; the mischief to the animal, which has only suffered the more from lu$ interference ; and the mischief to the carter, whom he bus exasperated the more, and, perhaps, strengthened in his vicious propensities." The lesson was home in mind, and as if the case with all good and usefnl lessons, nr early opj>ortunity was found of applying it to practice. The morning walk was continued. I' was n great delight for the lads to rambk into the fields with their father soon aftei break of day ; and such walks were the fre queM rewards of their good behaviour the day before. On such occasions, Mr. Howard wa9 accustomed to talk to theni on al the subjects of their studies, and to makf it his constant rule to tell them something ihey had not heard before ; for lie had travelled much, and s udied much, and, wha was best of all, his travels and his studies ftncJ all his thought*, had been always busi. ed in making oilier* h >ppy. Of course be was universally loved ;foi it is but natural we should love tliose wh< do us kind services, and there is no service so kind as tha' of ra iking us happy. He talked to his boys of the beauties o nature which surrounded tliem, and shower them in what a wonderful variety of wayi beauty is a source of pleasure. He bad< them listen to the songs of the birds, to thi fall of the waters, to the thousand sounds o the earth and air?teaching them how eacl added someihing o the great account ofliv tug huppness. VVlien the wind bir-w ii their faces, or ihe sun shone on their fore, heads, or the frost bit the ends of their fing ers, he told them how each administered t< man's enjoyment. If the air was frag ran with the flow ers of spring, or the sweet ha; of summer, he explained to them how tin organs of smell were made subservient t< the same gi eat end; and as they looker the difihrent tribes of busy creatures par taking of the various food presented lo'.hen by their Maker's munificence, he pointei out how numerous their pleasures, hov perpetually renewed, how marvellous!; provided for, how infinitely spread :41 See,1 said he, "the great purpose of Providence the general lesson of creation?happiness!1 And the thought again carne over Ar thur's mind, that anger never rnado ao; body the happier. They returned nomeward. Their wall had been long ; longer than usual. Whon should they meet, hut the cartman whohai excited so much of Arthur's indi nation i few hours before! H had delivered hi cart-load to the market-gardner, and wa -w?rtWWg.Sp|jii|y by the side of hia.-.ajwi every now and men gTVirtg^Tlio poor Tiors' a heavy stroke with his slick. The horse however, being now relieved of h:s burder moved on with something like activity The man no sooner saw Arthur approach ing, than, as if in pure spite And contradic tion, he struck his he ist a vehement blot upon his nose. But Arthur had Icarne wisdom ; and his fntlier was charmed t see that ho was smuggling to check the out break of his anger. He, however, went t the carter, who begqn to scowl at him a lie approached, expecting, no doubt, anolhs violent scolding. But Arthur had foun out lii? m'wukc. Tw man perceived th difference, and his own looks changed a Arthur said to him in a quiet and gent! tone, 44 I spoke to you improperly th morning ; I am sorry for it." The man di not give the horse another blow ;and one or twi~e, as George and Arthur ttirne round to watch what was going on, whic they did very cautiously indei'd, iheysaw til carter kindly patting his poor beast upou th buck, and heard him singing in the distune a good-humoured song.
