How TO TEACH CHILDREN TO TEAzE Chill
dren are taught to teaze, very much as they are
taught 10 cry. With all his little wants, real or
imaginary, the child runs to its mother They are
matters of Importance to him. He wants a def
mite and decisive answer,-one which will settle
the question and lis mind will be on the rack till
he has it. 1t is not in the nature of child to feel
otherwise. He will have no peace himself, and
will therefore give his mother peace, till he
derstands and knows that the point is settled and
how it is settled. Ifyou give him no answer till he
has spoken ten times, he will speak ten times and
then if he has any reason to suspect that speaking
twenty times more will obtain answer more IA
vorable to his wishes, he will speak twenty times
more. And this will soon growinto habit But give
him an answer the first time lie speaks, and he
will not be obliged to speak second time to OBJ
tain one and never alter your decision for his
teazng and he will soon give it up, as of no use.
If YOU have leisure and the occasion seems a
proper one, YOU may let him argue his case before
YOU decide it, but not afterwards. Indeed, if he
has learned by experience that your decisions are
final, he will seldom, if ever attempt it. He will
consider an answer as an answer His mind will be
at rest on that point, and soon find something else
with which to amuse himself

RELIGION USEFUL TO HEALTH. The late DR..
Rush has remarked that the different religions of
the world, by the activity they excite in the mind,
have sensible influence upon human life. Athe-
ism is the worst of sedatves to the understanding
and passions 1t is the abstraction of thought from
the most sublime, and of love from the IN ost per-
feet of all possible objects. Man is naturally re-
.igious, as he is social and domestic animal and
the same violence is done to his mental faculties
by robbing him of a belief in God, that is done by
booming him TO live in a cell deprived of the OBJ
jects and pleasures of social and domestic life
The necessary and immutable connection between
the texture Of the human mind, and the worship OF
object Of some kind was some forty years since
fully demonstra ted by the atheists of Europe who
after reIec ting the true God instituted the worship
Of Nature, Of Fortune, and of Human Reaso.. and
in some instances, with ceremonies of the most
expensive and splendid kind Religions are friend
y to health and life, in proportion they elevate
the understanding, and act upon the passions of
hope and love. 1t will readily occur to every one
that christianity, when believed and obeyed accord
ing to its original consistency with ITSELF and with
the divine attributes, is calculated to produce
those effects than any other religion in the world
Such is the salutary operation of its doctrines and
pecepts upon health and life that if its divine au
thorty rested upon other argument, this alone
would be sufficient to recommend it to our belief
How long mankind may continue to prefer substi-
tuted pursuits and pleasures to this invigorating
stimulus, is uncertain but the time, we are assur.
ed, will come, when the understanding shall be
elevated from its present inferior objects and the
luxated passions be reduced to their original order
This change in the mind of man can be effected on
ly by the influence of the Christian religion, alte
all the efforts of human reason to produce it soel
by means of civilization, philosophy, liberty AMI
government, have been exhausted to no purpose

ANOTHER RAIL RoAD PROJECT. There is re
end of projects, in these days Of improvement,
" march of mind" and march of freedom. While
new things ara devised in Europe, the seat of civ
ilization in the old world, less enlightened people
occasionally strike out bold plan to astonish men,
and cast into diminutive capacities the inventions
of the devotees of science. The barbarian of the
present day most remarkable for bold strides in
improvement, is the Pasha of Egypt, whose last
grand design is to buda railroad across the 18TH
mus of Suez, to carry ships across the land from the
Mediterranean to the Red Sea, and draw the whole
European travel of India through his dominions, al
object he has long had in view.

| SINGULAR ILLUSIONS. The strange illusions
with which hypochondriacs and insane persons
are oftentmes affected not 4 little amusing to
! the unconcerned spectator, however uncomforta.
bic they may be to the patient himself There are
many anecdotes respecting these illusions, related
by medical authors, some of which we have got to-
gether IN this chapter, for the amusement of our
readers.
Marcus Donatus informs US that baker ofFe-
rara, believed he made of butter, and on that
account would not approach the oven lest he should
melt
The same author relates, that person by the
name OF Vicentinus, imagined he was of such an
| enormous size that he could not get through the
door OF his apartment. His physician gave orders
that he should be forcIbly led through it, which was
done accordingly butt without fatal effect, for
Vcentlnus cried out as he was forced along, that
the flesh was torn from his bones, and that his
limbs were broken off, Of which terrible impression
he died in few days, accusing those who conduct
| ed him of being his murderers.
Tulpius tells us, that the wife of one Solomon
| Galpus fancied she hsa been dead, but that God
had sent her back to the world without heart for
he had kept it in Heaven. On this accouct she
was extremely unhappy, and more miserable than
any of Gods creatures.
Gruner relates the case of German student of
theology, by the name of Rau. Imagining himself
the subject OF divine call, without waiting for
holy orders, he commenced preaching The fol-
" He who believes not in witches does not believe
in the devil he who does not believe in the devil
does not believe in God he who does not believe
in God, must be damned"
Hypochondriacs have sometimes imagined them
selves frail article of china, and of course have
been in constant fear of being dashed to pieces by
the carelessness of servants or the forgetu of
friends Pope, in "The Cave of Spleen" thus
represents these same breathing articles of brittle
ware

One bent; the handle this and that the spout;
ppkin there like Homer's tripod walks;
Here signs jar-&c. sc.

The good old lady took it into her head that her
throat was growing up, and that she would soon
be deprived of the power of swallowing This
would have been fearful catastrophe, for her ap-
petite was excellent. In order to prove that her
apprehensions were well grounded, she would al
tempt at dinner time to get down a whole potato
without chewing when finding that SO large a
mouthful was disposed to stick by the way, she
would excGim, while half choking, There |
suppose now you're convinced that my swallow is
growing up ] can't even get down a single pota-
to without absolute danger of my life" However

1t is an indelble stigma upon mankind, that the
most ardent and unwearied propagators of Gospel
doctrines have ever been the most basely ealum-
mated The Saviour and his apostles realized it
Jesus bequeathed it part of his legacy to his
followers-the martyrs were persecuted-the Re-
formers were accounted as the offscouring of all
things-and the prince of poets, John Milton; the
prince of preachers, George Whitfield; and the
prince of philanthropists, John Howard, like their
master Christ, were hated without cause
