well, then, l have seen your friend
J., and find him exactly what you describe
him as beng--a humOriSt He seems to have
impaired much of that character to every thing
around him, both animate and inanimate. His
servants are all admirably disciplined to second
his whims, and his very furniture is, for the
most part, adapted to the same purpose. Upon
my arrival, for instance, after receiving me
with much cordiality, in consequence of your
letter of introduction, he invited me to sit down
in an easy chair that stood by the FIRE place ];
but had scarcely complied with his request,
when l started with horror from my seat upon
the supposition that ! had crushed cat and her

1923.
To the Quarterly and Monthly Meetings of
Friends, IN Great Britain, Ireland, and
elSe,ohere.
DEAR FRIENDS,
In thus Offering you our annual salutation,
not as customary act but because we feel
the renewed current Of gospel love, we are
called upon to acknowledge that the Lord
has been again gracious to us, and has unit
ed our hearts in the fear of his holy name
so that our coming together has tended to
the edifying of the body in love.
We feel thankful in rejecting, that ever
since the gathering of cur Society, it has
pleased our heavenly Father, in his mercy to
grant to US from one period to another, when
thus collectively assembled, the manifesto
ton of his power. Through the efficacy Of
his grace, he has, from one generation to
another, preserved amongst us those who
have labored in unity and harmony for the
defence of the Gospel and the spiritual well
fare of the Church. This precious harmony
is experienced by those only who become
united in Christ Jesus as their Head, and
know that all their strength proceeds from
Him who are sensible that they are called
in one hope of their calling; the hope Of
eternal life through Him, their gracious
Redeemer.
In the warmth of christian love, we ear
nestly desire that all our dear brethren and
sisters may become partakers of this unity
and of this blessed hope. But, beloved
friends, it is only, as we are brought to the
feeling OF our utter insuffcency to effect our
own salvation, that we can look availngly
unto Him who taketh away the sin of the
world, and be redeemed from the conseouen-
ces of the fall of our first parents. We all
have sinned, and come short of the glory OF
God. Be persuaded then, we entreat YOU
to seek to be set free from the guilt and
power of sin--to come in faith unto Christ
"as unto living stone, dsallowed indeed
ofmen; but chosen of God, and precious .
remembering that gracious promise, which
applies with undated force TO us, and to all
men individually. "Him that cometh to
me, will in no wise cast out" He is the
mediator between erring, transgressing man
and that pure and holy Being who created
us for a purpose of his own glory.
1t is therefore highly important, it is in
deed indispensable, that we do not Illustrate

CONCLUDED.
In the year 1905, the Turks were in state
of great weakness, under their amiable but fee
Bile monarch, Sellm; their provinces in state
OF lusurrectlon abroad; their people turbulent
anndlscontented at home and pressed and har-
raised by the conflicting and peremptory de-
mands OF the great European powers Thew

the provinces of Waliachia and Moldavia, that
their respective hospodars should be continued
in office seven years. and not removable but by
the consent of Russia. To this agreement.
however, they did not adhere. The then reign
ing hospodars were deposed before their time ;
and when the Russians demonstrated, the Bos
phorus was closed against their ships. Taking
umbrage at these causes of complaint, General
Nicholson was despatched with an army of six
ty thousand men, who crossed the Niester, took
Bender and Chotzim with little resistance, and
entered Yassi, the capital of Moldavia. From
thence he proceeded to Bucharest, the capital
of Wallachia, where he found Turkish force.
which had been sent against him by Mustapha
Bairactar, the energetic Ayan of Rutschuk.
These, however, he soon defeated When his
approach was known, the inhabitants rose upon
the Turks, attacked them suddenly with all
! kinds of weapons; and, with the aid of a small
advanced guard of the Russians, drove them
out of the town, leaving fifteen hundred dead in
the streets. He then entered Bucharest, and
took entire possession of the three provinces of
Bessarabia, Moldavia and Walacha not leav-
ing Turkish corps of fortress on the north side
OF the Danube, with the exception of Giurdzio /;
and he prepared Immediately to pass over to
the other side. A tumultury army was now
hastily collected at Adranople, of troops from
the provinces of Asia, and moved forward with
the Janissarics to the Danube they mutinied,
however, on their march, massacred some of
the officers who wished to introduce European
discipline among them, and when they at length
arrived at the scene of action, were SO disorgan-
lied, that they effected nothing against the
Russians, who remained in almost undisturbed
possession of the province till the year 1910,
when the armies on both sides were augmented
to two hundred thousand men, and a fierce and
sanguinary contest ensued, which, perhaps, new
or was surpassed. The Russians passed the
Danube in three places Their direct progress
would have been from Giurdzio to Rutschuk I,
but at this latter place the passage was imprac-
ticablo, either at the town or near it, as the
banks were steep and high, and defended the
Turkish batteries. They therefore crossed over
above it, at Ostrova, near Widdin, and below

POETRY.
From POLtOk'S {" Course of Time. -
THE WOMAN OF FASHION.

Small her ambition was but strange,
The distaff, needle, all domestic cares,
Religion, children, husband, home, were things
She could not bear the thoughts of; bitter drugs
That sickened her soul The house of wanton
mirth
And revelry, the mask, the dance, she loved,
And in their service soul and body spent
Most cheerfuly: little admiration,
Or true, or false, no matter which, pleased her,
And DER the wreck of fortune lost and health,
And peace, and an eternity of bliss
Lost, made her sweetly smile: she was con-
WINGED
That God had made her greatly out of taste,
And took much pains to make herself anew.
Bedaubed with paint, and hung with ornaments
Of curious selection-gaudy toy.
A show unpaid for, paying to be seen!
As beggar by the way, most humby asking
The aims of public gaze-she went abroad
goly admired and indication gave
OF envy cold civility made bows,
And smoothly Aattered; wisdom shook his head
And laughter shaped his lip into smile
Sobriety did stare; forethought grew pale
And modesty hung down the head and blushed
And pity wept as on the frothy surge
OF fashion tossed, she passed them by, like sail
Before some devilish blast, and got no time
To think, and never thought, till on the rock
She dashed, OF ruin, anguish, and despair.
THE CHRISTIAN WOMAN.
o how unlike this giddy thing in Time!
And at the day of judgment how unlike
The modest, meek, retiring dame. Her house
Was ordered we'll her children taught the way
OF lite-who rising up in honor, called
Her blest. Best pleased to be admired at home
And hear reflected from her husbands praise,
Her own, she sought gaze of foreign eye
His praise alone, and faithful love, and trust
Reposed, was happiness enough for her.
Yet who that saw her pass, and heard the poor
With earnest benedictions on her steps
Attend, could from obeisance keep his eye,
Or tongue from due applause. In virtue fair
Adorned with modesty, and matron grace
Unspeakable, and love-her face was like
The light, most welcome to the eye of man;
Refreshing most, most honored, most desired
OF all he saw in the dim world below.
AS Morning when she shed her golden locks,
And on the dewy top of Hermon walked,
Or Zion hll-so glorious was her path:
Old men beheld, and did her reverence,
And babe their daughters look, and take from her
Example of their future life: the young
Admired, and new resolve of virtue made
And none who was her husband asked his air
Serene, and countenance of Joy, the sign
Ofinward satisfaction, as he passed
The crowd, or sat among the elders, told.
In holiness complete, and the robes
OF saving righteousness, arrayed for heaven,
How fair, that day, among the fair she stood
How lovely on the eternal hills her steps!

VEGETABLES. The experience of mankind is
sufficiently comprehensive to have ascertained
the fact, that vast changes have been wrought
in the vegetable world, with regard to the ma
ture, the qualities, and even the shapes of many
species of plants. These alterations have in
some degree been affected by the ingenuity and
the labor of man but many instances by fortu-
itous combinations, by mere change of soil or of
climate, and by other causes purely natural,
without the aid or Intervention of human means.
Continued cultivation has indisputably tended
TO effect transformations, some of which seem
incredible and almost miraculous. Our garden
vegetables were originally mere weeds, such as
we should consider scarcely edible in our present
state of epicurian refinement. 1t is affirmed
by writer on the subject of Diet, that there is
hardly vegetable now in use that can be found
growing in natural state-that is, unchanged
from its original form or properties, either by
the accidents of nature, or the continuance of
art.
Among the many metamorphoses which are
known to the memory of man, are those of the
potato, the cabbage, celery, many kinds of grain,
and of fruits, SC. mean and bitter root that
is found luxurlating in the wilds of South
/ America, is the parent of our potato-the mea-
gre colewort has been converted into cauli-
| flowers and cabbages, measuring and weighing
vastly more than the plant from which they are
derived besides undergoing great changes in
flavor and appearance-the fragrant and CRATE
full celery sprang originally from an acrid and
unpaatable weed-even our wheat, if we may
credit Button, is production partly artificial,
and brought to its present state OF perfection
by the skill of the northumberland it is as
serted that neither rice, rye, barley, nor oats,
can new be found growing wild on any part of
the earth The art of hortic ulture is said to
have converted the savage crab apple of the
forest into the golden pippin and thousand 9TH
err varieties, the forbiddng sloe into the tempt
ing plumb, and the unyielding rind of the al-
mond into the melting pulp Of the peach. In
short, a multitude of singular and surprising
transformations are occurring in the vegetable
kingdom almost daiiy--and it is ascortained that
plants may be trained by system OF culture,
nearly in the same manner that the human
character may be formed and improved by ju-
dicous modes of education.--Boston BalletiH.
