Again-When Plate told our Lord that his own
nation had delivered him up, his answer was very
remarkable" My Kingdom is not of this world; ;
if my kingdom were of this world, then would nv
serv ants fight tlat should not be delivered 10 the
Jews; bat now is ny kingdom not from hence"
What, would ak, is the most obvious sense Of
this passagep Is il not this-that the Kingdom
of Christ being peaceful dngdom does not admit
of resistance by force. Christ says LII my king
dom were of this world, then would my servants

who belong to Chrlst's kingdom cannot or ought
not to fight Again. Christ says that we should
love enemies but this precept cannot be full.
filed by such as seek to destroy tier enemies
whether public or private. The Apostle tells the
Corinthians the weapons OF the christian warfare
are not carnal, and the Ephesans that they should
not war after tie flesh but how can this be re-
conciled with the of the sword and tie spear
How does this accord with such use OF the weap-
onS of wards are made by the enemies of God, and
the destroyers of the human race ?--Anoiher text
in the 9Th Chap. of Romans" Ii any man have
not the spirit of Christ, he is none of his.' Here
think il may be fairly argued that none who be-
long to Christ can engage in pursuits which be
would not have engaged in when on earth. 'Tis
true the work in which our Lord was engaged did
not duuIt o. MS IoiioNtnS military eHpoyments;
but is il probable from ibe tenor of bis maxims and
the constant strain Of bis preaching that any con-
sderaton would have induced him 10 have pu, on
Tie ha5iments of war? Is it probable that his dis
ciples who followed him while he soioufned in this
vale Of tears, could have been persuaded to have Ia
ken up arms | think they could not. And it is
at least difficult to suppose bow any that now have
the spirit OF Christ can employ themselves in even
learning rt that he's for lis protested object the
destruction OF mems lives.

TO support when uSilcr tbe action Of the
loom. Wool would ron finer and smoother,
II our farmers would DC more attentive to
their sheep. They should never be ysrded
with cattle they should be fed in q rack, so
constructed, that the seed and chsf from the
hay may not fall into tho wool. These es-
sen,islly irjurs Il.
Sheep should be kept in good flesh, tha,
tho wool may be lively. After the sheep
are washed they should not be shorn, in less
than SIX or seven days. The reason why
you should wait so long efter washing, is
that the animal oil msy penetrate tho pores
ct the wool. This oil preserves the wool
alive and keeps ii soft and plabe.
After toe wool is taken off, il sbonle be
ieId IN some diY, clean place. When isis
dry, store and preserve l, from all dust and
filth.
2 Ii Farmers would observe these directions,
! they would soon hnd account for their extra
trouble. -
