Now and then we succeed in obtaining an article from one or another of these brethren; but it is hard work, and the process is rather trying to our inner man. We will try to deserbe it: Every one knows that there arc music 1 loses which play but One piece. They are wound up—the cylinder uiooves—the sweet birdlfke music riples on—they stop, and must be wound up. No wind ing up, no music. Some of our cou- tributofs are like such music boxes: not as regards tlic one tune, fur they are full of pieces, variations, and grand compositions, they can play (write) without being wound up, but they ■ill wt. We wound one of them up sometime ago; be jterformed—wrote one piece, and njp down. We wound another up, a few (lays ago, be too went ij^a tgxire, and is'now silent.

We now intend to offer some encourage ment* to the right and full discharge of the duty of liberality. And first we offer tlie comfort den tim'd to be enjoyed l»y the liberal man. To make others happy to the noble miml, is one of the highest aad purest forms of enjoyment of a mere earthly character that cun bo ex perienced. Hence, be who judicious- ly, and yet freely, contributes of the bounty with which a kind Providence has blessed him, to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, build rhurnhc* and support the gospel, found and endow college*, or semi Bibles aud missiona ries to the heathen, iiossesses a fund of happiness of the most exalted uml exhaust leas character. A personage of no leas distinction than Ho “who spake as never man sjiake,” has said : 11 It is more blessed to giro than to receive.” And Sob oinoo says : “He tlmt hath mercy- on tlie poor, happy is he,” Did the rich then study their own happiness, they would cultivate a liberal spirit, thro’ hearted Christian gentleman, wl* has a corresponding practice". hm-il •) :«•« aifcoj *Uat- yU nr, . lulu. -«.W ,fT - * 0 unto tlieia uu tlie left hand, Do|iart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prtquired for the. devil sad bis angels: For I was a huugrcd, and ye gave me no moat: I was thirsty, and ye gave no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me tpit in: naked, and ye clothed me not i sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not Then shall they aiffo answer him, saying, Lord, wheu saw we thee a hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee T" Sun-ly in them* things there ought to lie incentives sufficient to induce every follower of Christ to the prac tice of a liberality, co-exteusivw with his ability.
