RELIGION. MORALS ANO PHILOSOPHY. R?T. C. C. BROWN, Editor. BEAB Y2 OHE AI?OTHSR'S BUBDEKS. "And so fulSi? thc law of Christ."-Gul. vi.2 ?'Pilgrim, wait a little moment, Till I struggle to youl side. Lend your hand to heir tue, brother, For the love of Him who died ! Ton seem^trong and full cf courage, Kindly share with me your strength. I have conic a weary journey, Kow I hope for help nt length. Do not hasten on so swiftly, Do not leave ase on the roud, Le?s I faint beneath my burdens, Crushed by sorrow's heavy load/' "Fainting soul, I hear thee calling, Jesus bids me turu to thee, But I cannot make thee stronger, For there is co strength in me. Do you think my burden lighter? (Heart of mice, God counts thy tears !) But, .my brother, though we suffer, We wiil roll on Christ our fears. Why should anxious thoughts distress thee, : Press thy foot upon the thorn, Let us keep our eye on Jesus, Till the Mittons sreet the dawn !" What is the Bible Like ? It is like a beautiful tiree which bears sweet fruit for those that are hun? gry; and affords a shelter and shade for pilgrims on their way to the kingdom of heaven. It is like a cabinet of jewels and pre- j cious stones which are not only to be looted at and admired, but used and worn. It is like a telescope which brings j distant objects and far-off things of the ? world very near, so that we can see j something of their beauty and irapor- I tance. It is like a treasure-house, a store- ; house for all sorts of valuable and use- j ful things, and which are to be had with- j out money and without price. It is like a deep, broad, cairn Sowing j river, the banks of which are green and j flowery; where birds sing and lambs j play, and dear little children are loving I and happy. I No Fear of Death. Fear not, faithful Christian ; fear | not, at the appointed rime, to descend ! into the tomb. Thy soul thou mayest : trust with thy omnipotent Kedeemer, who is Lord of the unseen world, "who ! has the keys of hell and of death " j Most safely mayest thou trust thy bet- j ter part in those b?n?ficient hands which j were peirced with nails and fastened to ! tue ignominious tree for thy salvation, j With regard to thy earthly tabernacle, j be not dismayed. It is taken down ? only to be rebuilt cn a diviner plan and ! in.a more heavenly form. If it retir- s ? into the shadow cf death and lies ina- ! inured in the gloom of :.he grave, it is i only to return from a short confinement j to endless liberty. If it falls into dis- j solution, it is in order to rise more illus- I trions from its ruins, and wear an ! infinitely brighter face of perfection and j of glory-Kev. James Harvey. Lowliness. I ?- ? The world needs men more than any- ? thing else. Rubies are not to be men- j tioned by the side of men that are j thoroughly honest and reliable, men j that are right, mea that are competent j in their sphere. Such men are more ; precious than the gold of Ophir. There ? are lots of thiugs lying loose ail through human society which are called men, : but which are poor stuff. Thcv are '. over-swollen. They are wituoai any ! moral judgment, or their morul judg-j ment rests on a false basis. They do j not indore themselves bv the higher law ! of manhood, or by the divine standard. : They are not content to stand at a j point where they are really fitted to . stand and execute the duties of iife. | So multitudes of men rise and are smit- j ten down again. Only here and there j do we see men beginning low, progress j ing with moderation, maintaining what j they gain, rising to thc very end, and j ai last bavins; the verdict of men that i they were more than th; y thought j themselves to bc. Universal just judg- j ment and generosity tend tc put men higher who put themselves low, and to put down the man who thinks himself to be greater thtta he really is. Slang the Destroyer of Con? versation. The enormous increase of slang ol ; late years, and tile conspicuous part it plays iii the conversation of young men and women who can lay claim to thc best birth and education that a republic can afford, marks the absence of some of those instincts which go to produce a brilliant society; Slang is simply slipping otto's thoughts into the cheapest and most slip shod ready made clothing, and, instead ol being an evidence of wit or original itv as is sometimes ignorantly supposed, it is only au indication of laziness or a limited command of language. 'J here is nothing that more entirely rubs conversation of ail freshness and originality than a free indulgence in slang. There is no room for any in? dividuality of expression, fur any effort at appropriateness of epithet or justness o? opinion; but an idea which might bc expressed in fifty different ways, by diff?rent people, is stereo? typed into some meaningless slung formula and becomes common proper? ty. It is within the limits of modera? tion to say that ninety girls out of every hundred would describe every variety cf social pleasure or amuse? ment by ?'c?l?iT?-nsr that they hud "had a good time," or a "lovely ti tue/7 or a "beautiful time.''' "Awfully nico/' and "awfuHy jolly'** are sufficiently indefinite io qualify almost any noun ia-tue dictionary, and arc a conveni? ently vague way cf conveying; one's impressions without requiring it .nt tho impress:'-:.s sind" br too closely defined or analyzed, and they dispense with the troublesome necessity of ratting the words t..- ho thought wh?eh becomes unavoidable if one is obliged to find one's self in expressions. Slang phrases constantly present themselves as thc easiest and rn--si obvious thing Lo suv ubout people, or places, or bool:?, or Situations, wi ten it would i ti volvo some mental eilLrt to describe them more accurately. And then such indefinite judgments do not compromise one's powers of discrimination an ? cannot be cast up as an intellectual reproach by people of more penetrating facilities and ffr COnyenif, nt memo- res. The field of slang offers no restnc tious, and is as open to women as : the privileged sex: and such ex pi ! sions as "put ir. a good time," " iu an appearance," "take the cak "take the rag oil the bush,77 "gu? nian the mitten/' or "the gum drop "kick a free foot/' "have a mash c some one, "sit in a girl's pocke "high jinks/' "cut up/? "brass; i "cheeky,:; etc., indefinitely, may ! heard coming from Hps so pretty j almost for the moment to make < tolerate anything they may choose utter. This slovenly, conventiaily* conventional way of expressing on ideas lias more positive ill results tl j merely suppressing freshness ? j naivete of style lt exterminates I dignity and refinement uf thom and speech, and makes a woman i only commonplace, but common, make's a girl's mind seem a pk open to all comers,-a court withe a sanctuary. This accessibility a " hail-fell ow-wcll-met77 air goes far destroy the distinct, definite charm a womans conversation. It is i necessary that people who spe English should be elaborate, or st or pedantic. The very best and m< vigorous English is made up of sho I simple words, and idiomatic, natu expressions, and is as far remov from formalism or affectation as sla itself- The charm of a clever, fascii ting woman's conversation, like t charm of some of the most beauti poetry, often lies more in the mann than in the matter. A free, mci graceful use of language was one the most conspicuous accompli? i meuts ot those charming, ciega women who moulded modern socio in their salons sand made conversad a tine art. lt is a very generally cc ceded fact that in the societies of t most civilized countries there a more agreeable women than me reckoning purely from a social poi of view; and one reason of this is th most educated women are dtlleltam and diilettanti are proverbially plei ant people. They are not hard wor ers, but they rove easily from flow to flower aud gather a great, deal sweetness from them ali. There not often much that is very solid show for all these sunny flights, b they get the full flavor and sweetne of the summer and the flowers, ai are lighter and more graceful creatun than the steady plodders who keep the clover and buckwheat fields, wv a view to the excellent yield at quality of the honey, and the mon ment of wax which is to crown the labors. One cause that helps to destroy r finement and reserve of manners is tl constant society of one kind ( another that fills up the life of a gi in gay society. The principle of e operation is not confined tu trade ( business alone. It now seems in possible for a girl who has left schoo to learn a foreign language or to gai a knowledge of the lilt rature of IK own, to study history, or science, c art. to paint ellina, or to acquire th rudiments of fancy cooking; o?- eve sew for the poor, or say her pnrycrs, o read her Br?le in Lent, without th active assistance of some dozen o more young women who are ind i vid nally as helpless as herself; and naturally, when two or more girls ar gathered together with ?to one to im pose discipline, the programme is no rigidly adhered to, and a great dca that is not history, or literature, o cookery, or ?dification finds its wa; into their conversation. Many girl are, in a less degree, like tho you m lady who had "forty intimate friends/ and was much embarrassed when sin was obliged to discriminate betwee! them in forming a "twenty-questio! club.77 Individuality of thought an< charactei is stifled by such constan association. A girl whose whole da} is parcelled out between cooking clubs, and Shakspeare classes, anc sewing-classes, and art-needle-worl classes, has no time to help herself tc find out whether she lias any opinions that she can honestly call her own and what they are; and slang excres sions and cheap English are unfortu nately more infectious than thought? fulness and independence of mind and conduct. The Life even of a man oj pleasure can hardly be such an utterly purposeless, frivolous thing as such an existence; A more serious view of life is almost necessarily forced upon men, even men who are not specially seriously minded, and they come more info contact with graver questions. There are many subjects on which a man is bound to have an opinion, when a little clever, super? ficial paradox is tho utmost that society dorn ands from a woman, and feminine ignorance is al wa j s pardon? able if it is only appreciative. But it is melancholy to see women who aspire to no higher development ot sphere of action, throwing away the social attractions that aie their nat? ural heritage, the refinement, and grace, and freshness of expression that gave a charm to the conversation of women two hundred years ago, when their opportunities were so much less and iv strictions so nu? merous and burdensome.-Philadeh j ph ia American.

I confess that I had btu little faith in its merits or efficacy : but to my great joy and satisfaction, after I had commenced on the second bottle. I continued the use of the med? icine uutil I became completely cured. Judge court of ordinary.

THESU.V of IS?3 was a newspaper of a new ! kind, it discarded marty of the forms, and a ! multitude of the superfluous words and phr-.scs ! of ancient joutj-'lisui.
