While the reverend Pendulum, by its solemn vibta•
tions in the pulpit, is giving a serious and striking
effect to our form of pfayer and the liturgy, un-
known to the hearers of the clerical gabble, the
rich Rector may stick to his excellent old port after
the bell for service has ceased, and the spruce
young London Curate may devote another hoer
to the arrangemeni of his neckcloth, preparatory to
joining a Sunday's card-party in the evening. This
alteration would occasion none in the phrase " wind-
ing up a discourse ;" and if any, for the better, in
the adaptation of the subject (which might be
changed according to the occasion, on the principle
of the hand-organ)—and the.propriety of the preach.

is working itself into a. place, by assisting to split the
`House, with the largest part to the Minister's side,

will not suffer by the wooden substitute.
To save the wear and tear of real Royalty, in RI
various functions, it would seem necessary to have
I more than one machine: a Spinny Jenny, probably,
for dressing, and trifling; a Waste Pipe to carry off
the contents of the bottles ; a Lay figure, to take
its place at Chapel ; and a Repeater for political oc-

To sere human labour is the great desideratum
with those philosophical economists, who devote
thenisolves to thedevelopMent and application of the
prieciptes of national Comfort and wealth. Too' of.
tea does it happen, 'that the schemes of the wise are
counteracted by the prejudices of the foolish ; and
mankind, who have only to adept certain methods,
discovered by superior intellects, to become perfect
in condition and character, through a strange for-
wardness reject the offered panacea, and thus pro-
loug the hateful reign of misery and of vice.—lt
must be allowed, however, that the expediency of
StlVing human labour, is a truth,, which, althoughl
sublime in its nature and grand ice its results, has a
very ready access to the human heart, in ita.least, as
well as in its most, highly cultivated state. It seems
to ty.lcitg to the mysterious class of primordial regu-
take's, a due obedience tea which is so essential to
the general good, that it is securely provided for by
the instincts of our being :—comprehension, with
regard to these, is superseded by feeling, and the sa-
gacious possess no advantage over the ignorant, but
that of recognizing the beautiful propriety of the im-
pulse to which all yield with willingness and fidelity.
To save human labour is a task, which the peasant,
who baugs over his halted plough at mid-day, is as
anxious, if not as able to fulfil, as the prince who
reposes after a sumptuous repast, on an Ottoman,
soft as the eider-down, and graceful as a bed of
roses. To save human labour appears as desirable
and becoming to the laundress who rests her elbow
ou the washing-tub, as to the Countess who leans
with her's on the inviting shelve of the lined chariot.
To save human labour is a sacred duty, which the
scullion who snores over her saucepans in the kitchen,
as Meritoriously perfo.rins, as the scholar who nods 1
