This church, which stands on Mount
Calvary, is still in good repair, being
supported by the donations Of pilgrims
who arc constantly resorting it. Here

TRUE PICTURE OF LIFE.


Residences seems to be rooted in the
very nature. of man. When we are
Young we wish to be older; and when
we grow old, We long to be young again.
In childhood we are subject to our pa
rents and masters; and we think how
happy we should be, if we could be free
as a grown up man. When we are men,
we and ourselves the victims of care &
the slaves Of necessity; and we look wish
fully back to careless innocence of child
hood. When we are young, we envy
the man his activity and vigour, and
when we have reached our full strength,
we look back ON the light sports and
thoughtless froles of our tenderer years.
The child loves the proud display the
man makes; and the man looks with a
sad fondness on the f esh beauty of the
child. Hope is growing, and ambition
is strengthening in the childs bosom.
and he therefore always looks forward
and places his paradise in some bright
fancy. which he trusts he shall find
when be comes to manhood The man
has lived by the anticipated happiness;
he has found his hopes fainter, and his
enjoyments less poignant; and he there
fore looks back to the sweet years of his
boyhood and signs to think that youth
should ever grow Older Cont Herald.

THE MAHoNEpAv AND THE ECLIPSE.

THE MAHoMEDAN AND THE ECLIPSE.
About the year l7l5 when DIR. Hal
ley's scheme, and other astronomical
schemes of the great solar eclipse, which
foretod the precise time of the begin
ming and ending of that eclipse and
that it would be total, was cried about
every where in London, there happened
to be a Mahometan envoy there, from
Tripoli who at first thought people dis.
tracted for pretending TO know so very
exactly when God Almighty would oyer
shadow the sun. which his own Mussel-
men were not able TO do. He conclud
ing thus that God Almighty would re-
yer reveal so great secret to US uhbe-
levers, when he did not reveal it to
those whom he esteemed true believers.
However, when the eclipse came pre-.
cisely as those schemes had feretold, he
was then asked BY lord Forfar, what he
now thought Of the matter? Fis an.
swer was. that they must have their in
telligence from the devil; for he was
sure that God would never correspond
with such wretched set Of uubelieyers
as the English astronomers were.
