RELIGION, MORALS AND PHILOSOPHY. Rev. C. C. BROWST, Editor. "Ask, and Ye Shall Receive," fcjftje will ask anything in my r?ame, I will do it." 3fy prayer to the promise shall cling", I will not give heed to a doubt; For I ask for the one needful thing Which I cannot be happy witbou!: A 9pirit of lowly repose, In the love of the Lamb that was "slain ; A-heart to be touched with His woes, And a care not to grieve Him again. $he peace that my Saviour has bought, The cheerfulness nothing can dim? The love that can brirrg every thought Info perfect obedience to Him. The wisdom His mercy to own, In the way He directs me to take; T/o glory in Jesus alone, A ad to live and; do good for bis sake. All this thou hast offered to me, In the promise whereon I will rest; For faith, 0 my Saviour, in Thee, Is the substance of all my request. Thy word has commanded my prayer, Thy Spirit has taught me to pray : And all my unholy despair Is ready to vanish away. Thou wilt not be weary of me; Thy promise my faith wilt sustain: And soon, very soon, I shall see That I have not been asking in varr>. Miss Anna L. Waring. Tho Old Barrel. ?be dominie's soliloquy. the barrel is a metaphor. Ministers never write their sermons on circular paper. It would sot be- economical to pack them in barrels. But here they are in a dry-goods box, fifteen hundred of .them, all ready for the paper-mill Pretty heavy it is. It seems to me when I lift it as though it were as heavy as lead, Perhaps it would not seem as heavy to any one else, unless he had to hear them. There's a bit of the old label on the box cover, enough to show that there are "dry goods'' within. Dry they are indeed ; but I canQot help feeling a little wet about the eyelids when I look at some of them. As I look into the box, it seems as if I were lookin in a soul-glass which mir rored my moral and intellectual featares. What a record of the history of a hu man mind and heart! The mind was small, but the heart large. Perhaps if there were more intellect in the sermons ifwould not be necessary to send tbem to the paper mill. And yet all that seems valuable to- me in them now is the heart that beats in some of them stilL The loftiest aspirations, the most j exalted ideas of virtue, the gladdest hopes,' the warmest love, the most sub Hme thought of God, the greatest chari ty of man, the sincerest devotion to truth, and the profoundest faith that I could cherish have all been poured into these sermons. Whatever else I was when out of the pulpit, however faulty and imperfect my life, I was pure in heart and devout in spirit when I wrote these sermons. They may be nothing bat cinders and ashes for everv one else: but in the emners there are still some live sparks foF me, which set my soal aflame. Some of them are so old and so per functory, or so alien to my usual mood, that I never can remember where they came from ; and others are so common place that I wonder they ever came at all. ' But how can I ever forget the joy and j agony of soul in which some of them j were born ? Like a stream of molten j fire, they flowed from my pen. The thought breathed and the words burned, I and the paper seemed to scorch as I { wrote upon it. These are the sermons j that flamed in the pulpit. The congre gation caught the fire. It is a joy to think that some of the lives they kindled I shone brighter to the perfect day. And I yet t never felt so humble as when 11 had delivered one of these sermons. Fifteen hundred weeks of my life packed iu that box ! I can almost live them over in an hour. What is the | fruit? Hollingsworth will say, as he j puts them on the scales. CiNothiog but j leaves." Bat leaves have their use, j for the leaves of the tree of life are to j be for the beating of the uations. Here j and there, in the orderly pile, I think I : find a little balsam. ' Well. I've uearly reached the bottom i of the box. Tbey are rather vealy j down here. These are two or three i that I preached in the Seminary. I | have bad gra:?e given to me never to j preach them anywhere else. And there ! b No. 1, the head of the list, not so j bad as it might have been ; aod here is j 1567, the last of the list, not so good as | it ought to have been. Pure, sweet, and soul-rhrilling mem- ! ories, let them rest The old church j bell is ringing iu my ear. I can see j the people crossing the village-green. I I am standing once more in the old pul- t pis. Before me are the saintly forms of i those I loved. Soft, sweet harmonies j from the the organ float upou the air. j We raise our song nf praise. We lift; our hearts in prayer. Together we j read the Word. Once more I feel the j indescribable joy of him whose heart is ; fired with the Holy Ghost, who preaches \ with authority and not as the Scribes, j 'Tis worth all the pain and toil aod self- j denial to have this alluring recollection, j and with it surges in the memory of \ happy homes, perfumed with the sane- j tiiies of affection, where I was ever j welcome; hours spent in delightful con- | verse at the social board ; and the un- j failing remembrance, too, of the patient j sufferers languishing on their beds of j pain, and yet illustrating the sweetness j and the sublimity of the Christian faith, j I always brought away more than I j carried. How often I^avr I held their j hands as they entered the vale and ; crossed the narrow stream, when it ! seemed to me as if the very windows of j heaven were opened and the glory of! God shone on the transfigured face ! Was it the door bell ? Did you say j he had come? I meant to be ready, but j I dropped iuto reverie. It is soun done, j Put on the cover Another nail, if you please. It seems like nailing down i my own coffin; as if I were a pall-j bearer at my own funeral. There it is. j All ready. ''Take up gently, lift them j with care." Stop! let tne write the ep- j itaph: Mif loord sltaU pass ?wtf?/% but the j ecord of the Lord shall endure foreeer. j Memorandum in the Cash Booh. Sold to Tileston & Holliugsworth j 261 lbs. of paper at 2 cents, - ?5.22 [Then in a bold hand beneath the j entry:] Received PiYMKNT. 1 _I_ JLJL _ How to Fray. An article, found among the unpub lished papers of the late Dr. J. A. Alexander, on "Circumlocution in Prayer," closes with the following *'practical suggestions to young men. who are forming their habits" ia re spect to prayer They are equally ap- i plicable to all who pray in public, and J especially to those who pray in Sunday schools. 1 Let your prayer be composed of thanksgiving, praise, confession, and petition, without any argument or ex hortation addressed to those who are j supposed to be praying with you. 2. Adopt no fixed forms of expres sion, except such as you obtain from Stripture. 3. Express your desires in the brief est, simplest form, without circumlocu- j tion. 4. Avoid the use of compound terms in place of the imperfect tense. 5. Hallow God's name by avoiding [ its unnecessary repetition. 6. Adopt the simple devotional j phrase of Scripture; but avoid the free use of its figures, and all quaint and doubtful application of its terms to foreign subjects 7. Pray to God, and not to man. - ?^???? Importance of Little Things j - Many years ago the keeper of a light j house off the coast of Florida, accident- j ally broke a pane of glass while lighting j bis lamp for the night. It was too late j for him to repair it, and as the wiud < was blowing strongly he fitted a strip of j tin into the sash to prevent the lights from being extinguished. The lamps j sent their cheering rays far out to sea I save where the pieco of tin threw a | dark shadow, widening as it fell upon j the distant waters, till it covered many a mile. Vessels passing that way dur- 1 ing the night saw no light where one i ought to have been and some were j wrecked upon the rocks and precious lives were lost because, while the lamps were burning brightly, it did not shine where it should. So a single fault, or a vicious habit, or an uncontrolled tem per, often hinders some of the Chris- ! tian's light, and souls are lost because j they abide in the shadow, and they are j not led to the true light that ltghteth j every man that cometh into the world : j "Ob, light divine, so full, so free! Oh, world that lies in night! Oh, guiding radiance, shine through me Brightly aud still more bright. Nor ever be thy rays in rain Because I am a darkened pane." Ma"tog*Mcney. Some people can hardly make a liv- I ing. and some lay up money. Why is 1 it 7? Into a villiage of a few hundred in- { habitants, a young man came aud was ! employed as clerk in the store; be lived j there fifty years, and laid up ?100,0(J?'j Other men worked as hard, but did not I lay up money. Near that villiage was ar krge and I beautiful farm. The owner of i-5 had i it from his father. Be did noE drink ! nor gamble, and yet he could not make j' a living, and so borrowed money, and j to secure it gave a mortgage on the | farm. In a few'years the farm was | sold and he was obliged to move away, j A Scotchman, with but little money, i and with a large family, passed by and j saw the house was vacant, and struck a bargain with the owner. He began to | work, to save and to pay, and in ten or ! twelve years he was the entire owner. ! Then he went on and laid up money, j and is now a rich man. The art of making money is one that i should be carefully studied. If you take a dollar and lend it out at six per j cent, interest, it will double itself in j sixteen years. If you take a dollar and i buy something with it, and then sell ! that at a profit and so keep doing, you j increase your capital. These three j ways are the foundation ways of money- j making. All business is in one of j these three forms. Those who succeed j the best are those who know the most i, about what they do ?School Journal, j The Christian pastor, is often dis- 1 mayed at the disproportion between the j means at his command and the results j he is constantly aiming at. To save j men who are unwilling to be saved, to ; organize a workiug church life out of j the incongruous elements that he finds j around him, to build and pay for ! churches without money, to establish ! and erdow schools agaiust the- opposi- j tions of those they are designed to benefit, j and at the same time he is doing all these j to provide bread for his household without i 'cruse of oil' or 'barrel of meal,' are the j practical problems he struggles with, j It is no wonder that there are doubts j of what the results may be sometimes in | his mind. If he settles his course by i any human equation, he will give up in ' despair. But he takes account of pro- ; misc and Providence in it all Saint I Theresa, when she bad determined to j found a vast orphan asylum, had but ! four half ponce with which to begun ; her work. When asked what she ex- j pected to accomplish with these, she j replied; Theresa, with four half-pence, j can do nothing; but with God and j these she can accomplish all things '' Such faith and such work find justifica tion in their God-given results. What a word is that to the pastor. In- j as much as ye know that your labor is j not in vain in the Lord.'?Pacific Ad- j cocate. When Moscow was burning, there ! was a party dancing ia the palace j right over a gun-powder magazine. ' They did not known the flame was j approaching, so the leader of the festiv- j ity shouted : *One dance more!' and j the voice was taken up through the \ palace and the cry was 'One dance i morel' and the music played, and the; feet bounded and the laughter rang out; \ but suddenly through the fire and the j smoke and the thunder cf the explosion I eternity broke Alas! that some will J dance on in their sins, and their frivoli- ; ties, and their wordliness, until iu an i hour that they know not eternity ! breaks in and they are destroyed, and ^ that without, remedy ?Sp'wjcoti.

A correspondent of the Kansas City j Times wrttes : "I herewith append a j recipe which has been used to thy ! knowledge in hundreds of cases. It I will pevent or cure small-pox, though | the pittiugs are filling. When Jenner j discoveicd cow-pox in Eugland, the j world of science hurled an avalanche of j fame upon his head ; but when the sei- j entific school of medicine in the world ; ?that of Paris?published this recipe j as a panacea for small-pox, it passed j unheeded It is unfailing as fate, and i conquers in every instance. It is I harmless when taken by a well person. | It will also cure scarlet fever. Here is J the recipe as I have used it, and cured j my children of scarlet fever ; here it is as I have used it to cure small-pox ! when learned physicians said the j patient must die. it cured : Sulphate of zinc, one grain ; foxglove (digitalis,) i one grain ; half a teaspoonful of sugar ; mix with two table spoonsful of water When thoroughly mixed add four ounces water. Take a spoonful every hour, j Either disease will disappear in twelve hours For a child smaller doses, ae- j cording to age. If counties would com pel their physicians to use this, there would be no pest bouses. If you value j advice and experience, use this for that terrible disease.'' - m i?tn? - A P.ockland man saw advertised "a sure cure for drunkenness."
