small brush or pencil of stiff hair set in q
reed handle, and held virtically (by the mid
die finger against the first and third,) every
line was carefully and repeatedly traced
until it became familiar. After much of
this drudgcry, DR.. NJ. sat him patiently
down to the Jesuit Harmony, and copied
out every syllable of it for his own future
use. This accounts for the otherwise sur
prising facility with which he subsequently
acquired the language on his arrlvaln Chi
ma. What all impressive spectacle must
this man have presented, as he sat at his
solitary task in the Bodleian, to being ac-
quainted with the design God was about to
accomplish by his hands. Is it too much

ness of God in thus training the man who
was to unbar the gates Of life to the millions

as to his subsequent support; and so very
uncertain were the means of that support
in his eyes that he gladly accepted the glt'

means of taking profles, in aid Of his funds
in strange land. The thought was sug.

On so slender a prospect had this believer
strong in faith, gone forth like Abraham
from his home and his country. ''not know

And no less remarkable is the manner in
which his faith was rewarded. For sc
