WHO WILL PREACH TODAY? Is qucs J.
ton too often asked not to convince US that
many run to hear and not to pray; and
think that when they have heard sermon
they have worshjped God Our Savior
said, "mv house shall be called, 'by way
of eminence. 1.-The house of prayer" The
promises Of Cod are to those who pray
TASK and it shall given you"-and Christ
does not say hear, but ask.
Without meaning to undervaIue preach
ing as means Of grace, we wish merely
to warn our readers against the vice Of the
times, and remind them, that although the
house of God is the house of preaching, II
is first and before all the house of prayer
and praise. Who will preach! is certainly
Of less consequence than ech0t will be
preached; and they that gossip about TO
hear sermons have need to be reproVed as
those who offend against Christ's Chur'A'
Missionary.

| More hgrn1iy-Mr. Andrew Morse, Jr.
Of Maine has invented an improved ships
capstan, which appears to be the vevy thing
so long sought by naval constructors. 1t is
so contrivcd, at,without taking up any more
space than common cnpstan,the power may
be increased four.six, ten or twenry fold. e.
one man may gain the power Of four, six, ten
or twenty. The body Of the capstan turns on
cylindrical shaft, made fast in the deck, Of
sufficient strength to bear any strain that the
vessel can bring upon it; and acts by itself as
quick and simple cspstan; but by transfer
ring the bars to an extra head or cap,nny de-
sirable power may be gained, and one or two
men may walk away with the power Of a doz-
en- or fifteen. The whole contrivance is com
pact and strong, having the facility Of the
common capstan, and the immense power OF
the windluss combined.

WILLIAM ID. GREY.-The brief history Of
Grey, the associate of Robinson, is full Of
deep and solemn interest, both to young men
and those parents and guardians under whose
care they are placed. lie came from Ohio To
this city only two years ago. At that time
he was a ncmber, in regular standing. OF an
orthodox church in GAINESVILLE, and united
with the church in Gold street, in this city,
where he was a teacher in a sabbath school.
He brought letters of recommen ndation to
some of the most respectable merchants, and
was in the stores of Wright & Winston, VIII
bur & Buckley, and Doremus, ,Suy dam s. Nix
on. Evil associates first led him astrny, and
he was soon so lost TO virtue and self respect,
as to marry woman Of abandoned character,
with whom, MS might be expected, he lived
very nnhappiy. The expenses of his life of
prenigacy were so great, that he was obliged,
like others Of the same stamp,to have recourse
to theft and robbery in order to meet them,
and he has been stopped short in his career
by the detection of his aggravated guilt. In
two short years, how changed are all his pros
poets! Then he was respectable and happy,
and bid fair to become useful member OF
society; now he is branded with the stamp of
indelibIe disgrace, and associated in crime
and punishment with the vilest fclons, and
"none go low to do him reverence."-[.N y
