ishing changes tn individual character" calcu- lated to display to the world the purifying in 1uence cfOur holy religion. as we'll as per feet rcfutatiOn of the hackaied objection, that the heather cannot be converted to Chris tianity. But of these things, l am not just now anxious to avail myself. 1 fearlessly rest the argument on single fact "a fact which comes home to the business and bosom of US all.
 It may be somewhat humiliating to US. in this day of refinement and religious knowl- enge, to be told that We derive OUT origin from heather ancestry. Still it is true. Spirit ual darkness once covered the whole Gentile world, and our ancestors were there. And had the early Christians reasoned as some do now, and neglected the heathen as many are inclined to now, there also, at this moment, both we and our children had been. Our very existence, then, in this land of gospel light, is standing and perpetual proof that the heather may be converted to Christianity Sir, it is too late to tell us that the pagan's heart cannot be moved, and melted, and bies- sed by the influence of the gospel. The ve- ry suppOsltion cOntradcts the whole tenor of 1 the word of God, as well as fact. But will no longer trouble either you or myself with objections. Let it suffice; not an objection ] to this enterprise, worthy of notice, has been urged, which has not been again and again l triumphantly refuted.a it is true as regards all the objections to missionary operations, that they too evidently betray either dislike 10 the gospel itself or an ignorance on the subject which is altogether objectionable in this day oflight and knowledge.
 Sir, venture to predict that the time will come, when every objection to this enterprise will fall, even in the estimation of the object CT himself, like Dagon before. the Ark ol God The cause of missions is the cause oi humanity,-the cause of religion,--the cause of Christ,-and must prevail. The hypo- crite may ''discern the face of the sky" hut it IS the infinitely higher privilege of the be- fever in Jesus, to :. discern the signs of the times" What, then, as he casts his eyes on the wide world, does he behold l. Many parts of Christendom are at this mo ment blessed with the special influences of the Spirit of God :-religious light and knowl- | edge are fast increasing :---prayer for the conv ersion of the world is ascending from ten thousand altars, and the hand of Christian charity is actively employed ,n prosecuting measures for sending the light uf life to such as are " sitting in the region and shadow o death." God has always blessed these ef. forts, and he will bless them. The waving harvest is already beginning to be gathered the long benighted Indian is opening his eyes on the light of the Sun of Righteous. ness ;---" Ethiopia stretching forth her lands unto God 1.-the " Isles of the sea waiting for hIs law:"- the Rose of Sharon already blooming in our western wilderness. Slr this is the Lords doing, it is marvellous ii our eyes," And hail it as d sure pledge O. the ultimate triumph to the missionary cause ! md of the certain and rapid approach of mil lennial glory.

THE LIvERWORT.

Gentlemen You have frequently ser we'd the cause of suffering humanity, by gi- wing circulation to the most important dis coveries made in the healing art. l beg your indulgence to state, for the good of the public that since the winter of 1824-5, have had three violent attacks of an in- fiamation of the liver, each subsequent att tack worse than the former: that have thrice undergone salvation, to- the smani- fest injury of my constitution that soon after the effect of the salvation was wear ing of, had an addition to my afflictions, of the most painful kind, viz. bleeding at the lungs: to check the progress of which the first remedy resorled to, was the or recommended by the immortal Dr. Rush. -I swallowed as much fine salt as my sil- nation would admit of. This generally checked the bleeding for season. also had recourse to blood letting from the arm, to the application of leeches on my breast, and to cupping; all of which I know from experience to be servicable for a time. have also resorted to blistering which afforded me some relief. In short, from the first attack, till recently, I was under the full impression that the breast or lung consumption had taken fast hold upon me, notwithstanding my family physician, Dr. Jones, assured me to the contrary, re- pearedly 70 whose opinion1 now gladly as- sent.
 As soon as saw Dr. Hereford's publi- cation of the beneficial effects produced by the drinking of Liverwort tea, determin- ed to give the Liverwort fair trial in my case, and accordingly procured supply of the herb, which have used near three months, as my only drink, nourisbing li- quids excepted. Since ! commenced drinking the Liverwort tea, have had no return of splitting blood, and my strength has rapidly improved. When l call to mind my former situation,as before descri- bed, under the operation of salvation, ,blis- tering, the use of the lancet and all the ac- companying attendants on facilitated constitution, not the least of which was ibe danger of strangling, from the great quan- tity of blood issuing from the lungs--to re- lieve me from which, thirty leeches have been applied to my breast at one time, and thirty y-nine incisions made on my breast for the use of the cupping instruments-hav- ing experienced all this distress, and more than l can describe, during the past spring and summer, (as often as once month, the distress arising from bleeding at the luHgs) and now to free myself from this alarming visitor, from oil the evils brought into iis
