and while their lips In the most sweet, tender and TO-

But lot him lay his hand on his heart
and say" Revenge, I cast thee from me
Father forgive mo, % / forgive mine
enemies" and nature has new and most
delightful garniture. Then indeed are the
meads verdant and the flowers fragrant
then is the music of the grove delightful
to the ear,and the smiles OF virtuous beauty
lovely to the soul.
JeminG WiIEinsOn. ---This petticoated
miS-leader Of band Of fanatics from
Rhode Island purchased large and beau.
tifhl farm near Seneca Lake, N. Y. which
is now in possession Of one Of her disciples
called Aunt Esther; It is not far from
Penn. Yam. Tor Pennsylvania and Yankee
town. Aunt Esther holds fast to the
glebe, and will not sell rod her compan-
ions IRE 20 tawn colored cats.
A late traveller relates one Of Jemima's
miracles, which is quite as convincing as
those Of the prince-bishop HohenlOhe,
She announced her intention of walking a-
cross Seneca Lake, and alighting from her
carriage, walked to the water on the white
handkerchiefs strewed in tho road by her
followers she stepped ankle deep into
tho water, and then turning to the multi
tude, inquired whether they had faith that
she could pass over, for ifnot, she could
not; on receiving an affirmative answer,
she returned to her carriage, declaring that
as they believed in her power, it was unne-
cessary to display it. Jemima died some
years since, and Aunt Esther is probably
the only disciple remaining; it is conjec-
tured that she values Terminals earthly leg
acy, the farm, more than her prophetic
teaching.-Am. Ado.
Hon. to be rich.-Nothing is more ea-
sy, says Mr.. Padding than to grow rich
It is only to trust nobody-to befriend
none-to get every thing, and to save all
we get-to stint ourselves and every body
belonging to us-to be the friend Of no
man, and to have no man for our friend
to heap interest upon interest, cent upon
cent-and to be mean, miserable,a and des-
pissed, for some twenty or thirty years
and riches will become as sure as disease
and disappointment.

LATE ENTERING THE CHURCH.
Not long since ! spent the Sabbath In
C-T-. On inqulrtng Il there was
public worship, was informed that there
was. and that Il commenced at IL o'clock.
Entering the church, was accommodated
with seat, ten minutes before the time
when the service should begin. The SER
yico commenced, and The congregation,
generally, were composed and attentive
As the minister was announcing the text,
the congregation was disturbed by the en-
trance Of young gentleman, and two
young ladies, all dressed in full fashion,
Instead Of occupying seats near the door
where they entered, they marched forward,
giggling and talking rs they advanced, near
" the whole length ofthe church, 10 a pew
already filled. But "tke ladies mast be &C.
cOmmod0tcd." They showed determi-
nation to occupy that very pew, and no
other no doubt, because Unanswered their
purpose better than any other. 1t faced,
and was in full view Of nearly the whole
congregation. Those who occupied it
could see, aud be seen. No little commo-
ton was occasioned by changing seats to
make room for them. When, ut. length
being seated, they cast look over the
church which told as plainly as ifthey had
made proclamation, u week before in the
newspapers 1--WE have not como here to
worship God we care nothing about this |;
nor do we in the least, care for the wor-
ship Of others we have come to exhibit
our rich fashionable dresses, and our own
pretty faces and to see It there are any
young gentlemen or ladies who are worth
ogling at"
Query: Would it not be we'll when
young people enter the church, plainly
with these intentions, for the sexton, or
some other person, respectfully to ask the
preacher to suspend his voice for moment,
and then call the attention to this exhibi-
ton Of dress and Of beauty" Sir, here"
he might say, is Miss A and Miss
B-with Mr.. c., they are come to
receive your notice, and to let you see
with what indifference or contempt they
can treat the worship Of God."-This
would only be acting out, or speaking out,
tho real wishes and Intentions Of these dis.
turbers ofthe house of God. The preach
or might as we'll suspend his voice as to
speak without the attention Of his hearers.
The congregation had scarcely become
little composed, when lady and gentle
man, with two or three children, entered
the church, and walked considerable dis
lance to their pew. They walked lightly,
and rather STOPPING as they went, as If they
did not wish to occasion any disturbance,
or as II they would apologize for the dis.
turbance which they actually did occasion,
When seated, II was some minutes before
lhoy raised their eyes. Whether they
were engaged In private devotion, or fell
ashamed ofwhat they had done, was unccr-
tain the latter however, ought to have
been the fact.
On returning from the church, ! was
informed that this lady and gentleman were
the parents Of the children whom they
brought with them that they were both
professors Of religion; and yet, though
within quite convenient distance, they
scarcely ever enter the church till after the
service has commenced.--FGmsly VS..

Socrates collect all the excellencies ofthe
ancient and modern moralists, and point

Acquaintance, have you qnarrelled e.
Friends, have you differed? Ifhe who was
pure and perfect forgave his bittcrest ene-
mics, do you well to cherish your anger?
Brothers, TO you the precept Is impera-
tive, you shall forgive--not seven times,
but seventy times seven.
Husbands and wives, you have no right
to expect perfection in each other. To
err is the lot of humanity. Idleness will
sometimes render you petulent, and disap-
pointment ruiiles the smoothest temper
Guard, beseech you. with unremitting VIZ
GLANCE, your passions they
are the genial heat that warns US along
the way Of life-ungoverned, they are con-
suming fires. Let your strife be one Of re-
spectfGl attentions and conciliatory con-
duct.-Cultivate with care the kind and
gentle affections Of the heart. Plant not,
but eradicate, the thorns that grow in your
path above oil, let no feeling Of revenge
ever find harbor in your breast. Let the
sun never 60 down upon your anger. A
kind word-an cbliging action, If it be in a
trifling concern, has power superior to
the harp Of David, in calming the pillows
Of the soul.
Revenge Is as incompatible with haupi.
ness, as Il - hostile TO religion. Lot him
whose heart Is black with malice. and stu
dious Of revenge, walk through the fields,
while clad with verdure and adorned Will
