RELIGION.

The following are given as the sentiments Of the
late venerable Chancellor Wythe on the most i'm
porsant of all subjects:
have ever considered Religion Al our
best and grestest friend.-Thuse glorious
views which il gives of our relation to God,
and OF our destination to heaven, ON the ca
~ terms of a good life, unquestionably fur
nish the best of all motives to virtue. tn.
strongest dissuasives from vice, and the rich
est Cordial under trouEle. Thus far, / su;
pose we are al agreed; bur not perhaps 81
entirely in another opinion, which is, tina ?
in the sight of God. moral character is the
main point THIS opinion very clear;,
taught by r.ascn, is fully Conf, med by Re.
violation, which every where teaches that
the tree will ne valued only for its good rua !;
and that in the last day, according 20 our
works of love, or of hatred, or of mercy, o,
OF cruelty, we shall sing with angels, or wee,
with devils. In short, the Christian Religion
lthe sweetest and sublimest in the world
labours throughout, to fl in our hearts tn
great truth, that God II lo,e-and that },
exact proportion az we grow in love, con.e
QuentIy shall partake of his friendship ano
and felicity forever. While others, there
lore, have been beating their heads, or en-.
differing their hearts, with disputes abou.
forms OF baptism, and modes Of faith, it has
always. thank God struck me. as my grea,
duty, constantly to think of this God Is
love! and he that walketh in love, walketh
IN God and he in HIM.
