in the Lord, and admonish you, and TO cs-
TEEN them very highly in love for their
works sake" From this Scrip the
church-mcmbcr may learn, that his minister
is TO be owned in his official character rs
the servant of Christ, and obeycd and sub
mit:cd unto. And if he be reproached and
revilcd on account of his fithfllncss, these
reproachcs are not to be hastily listened to,
but the rule set down in Tim. v. l9, is to
be attended to by him: "Against an elder
receive not an accusation, but before two or
three witnesses.
A third duty Of the church.member is,
to maintain the doctrine Of the church with
which he is connected. This is contained
in her subordinate standards, for in these
she declares the sense in which she holds
the Scriptures. All Christian societies must
have such standards in this imperfect state.
The greatest opposers Of them have them
by tacit agreement among themselves
about the doctrines they arc to profess, and
the order they are 10 keep up. Nearly eve.
nv church in the Christian world, has pub.
lishcd her subordinate standards, and they
are the immediate bond of union among her
members. Now, as the pastor is ordained
to maintain this doctrine, it is the duty OF
the members 10 unite with him in The same
work. l Cor. i. 10. "Now, | bescech
YOU. brethren, by tie name Of our Lord Jc-
sus Christ, that We all speak the same thing,
and that there be 10 divisions among you,
bit that yc be perfectly joined together in
the same mind, and in the same judgment. "
In order to be able to do this, they should
avoid false teachers on the one hand, and
diligently search the Scriptures on the 9TH
or. They should compare their own sub.
ordinate standards daily with the word OF
God, and maintain the doctrines contained
in them, because they are convinced they
are revealed in the sacred record, and are
in danger of being forgotten bv the errors
of the present times. This is one scrlptu-
raj way of contcnding for that faith once
delivered to the saints; and this duty is more
nearly connected with the salvation of their
souls, than most church-members are aware
of. But the observations Of this duty re-
quires diligence and prayer in the pursuit
of spiritual knowledge all our days; we will
need 10 cry after it, and lift up our voice
for it we must seek for it as for silver, and
search for it as for hid treasures. But let
not the church.mcmber be discouraged from
attempting this constant eager pursuit after
spiritual knowledge; it is accompanied with
advantages which can only be known by
those who attend to it. You will find it a
means for strengthening your faith, of pre-
serving you from bigotry on the one hand,
and of keeping you from being tossed to
and fro, like children, with every new wind
of doctrine.

offences will come, be mild as possible in

these things are necessary to be done for our
beast, and that our servant has higher de-
mands on us than our beast. This higher

a question, Does the servants mind, or
soul have the same demands upon you or
me, arho are masters, for the supply OF ats

the more excellent part, and the more ex-

special attention. But you may ask "am

yourself. Would you be willing that your
,,eighbor, or your country should have con-
troll over as much fyour servants time, as

OF forming his religious character? Proba-

my servant must obey me, and not another,
for the Bible says, every servant must stand

whole matter then comes to this conclusion
YOU have entire claim over the whole of
your servants time. which continues as
long as he lives, and with this claim you
will permit no man to intermeddlc. lfyour
servant has a parent with whom he lives,
you will only allow your servant to obey
his parent so far as suits your orders and
plans, and his maxim must always be to
obey you rather than them. He is then re-
spol.sble to you in sense in which he is
responsible to no one else; and of course,
acting consistently, ifyou release him from
his obligations to parents, society, &C.,
and take his direction absolutely into your
own hand, you must of course release his
parents and society from the performance
of what would have been their duty to him,
and take the responsibility on yourself:

that vou may have an outline Of what is at

this part of the globe. All the missionary
pos,s. enumerated above, may be consider
ed as bringing the Gospel, in some sense,
within the reach Of about 100000 people.
But when VIC look at our own islands,

before the Gospel was sent among them.
So tha; the number, connected with all the

is brought to bear very directly, is much
less than 2O0,OO0,-probably not more, on

of Asia and Africa, who are under the

Of enquiry abroad ;-another light is burst
ing upon the land; the march ofintellect is
progressive. The Priests are beginning
to see the errors of Popery, and are hearti.
ly sick and tired of the workings of the sys-
tenn. Let the Church of Rome abandon
the errors and superstitions she has ingraft-
ed upon pure and genuine Christianity .
let her cast away from her with generous
scorn and holy indignation all those idola-
trous trinkets which are the pledges of her
alienation from Christ and his Gospel, and
the monuments of her shame. Then, and
not till then, will she return once more into
the bosom of the Catholic Church, and to
the original purity and simplicity of faith
which she preached when Paul addressed
his epis,le to her."
In reference to Maynoo:h College, the
grand nursery from which many of the
Roman Catholic Priests are transplanted
into this country, he bears the following tes-
timony.
"You have charged me with having op.
posed, when student in Maynooth, the
authorities of that house. Yes; denoun.
ced in terms of honest Indignation the vi
cious, narrow, and ruinous system of edu.
cation pursued in that house, which is the
hot bed of bigotry, intolerance, and super.
stition, where hypocrisy is religion, and
knavery morality. Yes; | joined issue
with the Courier newspaper, and publicly
and openly declared that the College of
Maynoo,h has never yet produced gentle
man or scholar, and that there never was
an establishment that stands more in need
of a speedy reformation than that house,
where 400 Popish priests are fed and educa.
ted by the liberaty ofa Protestant Govern:
ment, and who are let loose upon the world
to disseminate the unchrIstian and anti.so-
cial doctrines of bigotry and intolerance
which they are taught in that house. To
these Priests who are the busy and active
agents of Mr.. O'Connell, may be imputed
the pernicious system Of agitation, and the
other numberless calamities that now dis
tract and afflict our unfortunate country.
To these bigots may be ascribed the CAL
umnies that are every day heaped upon the
Protestant establishment, and to whose VIC.
lent and infamatory language from their
affairs may be attributed the hatred and the
murder of the Protestant Clergy Of lrc-
land"

ANEcDorE OF THE SPIDER.-A gentleman
in this city, not long since observed, one
morning, a spiders web in the corner of a
room, and by means Of a stick removed it:
1t was exceedingly thick and strong, and
seemed to contain almost as much weight
of substance as The spider ITSELF The next
morning he was surprised to lind another
similar web in its place the work Of the
same spider. He destroyed it second
time, and third and so on, till he had re-
moved it fourteen successive mornings, and
it had been as many times replaced by the
persevering spider. The gentleman then
gave it up.
We have made the same experiment,
ourselves, for few successive days, but
never half as long; always, however, with
similar results, as far as we went.
Is it not truly wonderful that this little
animal has it in his power to spin from his
body such mass of web in so short time,
and this, too, without becoming very much
cmaciated ?-Parley's Magazine.

THE POLISH OFFICER IN A NEW FIELD.
Cincinnati, Oct. l3.

On Sabbath last, there came into the
Sunday school of the Emigrant's Friend
Society, in this city, colonel of Napoleon's
wars, by birth Polander. He rose before
the school, and gazed upon it with exceed
ing interest, as was evident from the mus
cular workings of his hardy face. His
whole appearance was commanding-belng
about six feet high, broad shoulders, strong
frame, and venerable from marks of age.
Upon his cheek was left heavy scar,
which showed that sabre had laid open
the whole side of his face, and somewhat
disfigured him; but his eye was quick, his
head large, and altogether he wore the air
of military commander. Twenty years,
he said, he had been warrior-and he is
under enlistment still. But for many years
past he has not been following the bloody
footsteps of an aspiring earthly chief, but
is fighting against sin without and sin
within, under the waving banner of the
Great Captain of our salvation. . what
a change! to see this rugged, iron.looklng
old soldier become meek and lowly tol-
lower of the ever blessed Jesus!
While in Russia, his father died, and left
him an estate and title, as the Oldest son.
But he generously decided all his property
to his mother for the education OF the
Younger children, and, when Napoleon fell,
he emigrated to America, and settled in
Washington City. His mother was a
pious woman, and when he came to be en-.
gagged in a life of peace. her pious counsels
came up to his remembrance. He resolv.
ed to devote the remnant of his days to the
service of the Saviour, and soon made
himself instrumental in erecting a church
for the German Lutheran people there, and
assisted to organize church and congre-
CATION among them. General Lafayette
found him there. on his last visit to this
country, an humble justice OF the peace,
but enjoying the respect and affection OF all
good people. He received, as a present
from Lafayette, little farm in Pennsyi-
yania, valued at fifteen hundred dollars,
and thither he repaired and settled in
| Lancaster county.
Poland was blottcd out from the list OF
nations. The property he left was con.
fiscated, his mothers family scattered, and
one of his brothers was thrown into slavery
among the Russians. This generous Pole
heard it, and at once disposed OF his
farm, and sent the last dollar to his friend
Lafayette for the ransom of his captive
brother. Thus did he twice reduce him.
self from competence and ease to poverty,
for the benefit Of his family.
This brother, and himself and family
are now living upon little farm of forty
acres, in the state of Indiana, and arc
clearing it with their own hands. They
are expecting their mother and other broth
ers to join them here in this fair land
and with them, we are told, there will bt

From lions Watchman.
THE SHARK AND PILOT FISH.

All the readers of the Watchman have
probably heard of those ferocious monsters
of the deep called sharks. They may
have heard, also, of the notions which the
sailors entertain of them, how they always
follow a ship when any one on board is
sick and likely to die.
But your readers, Mr.. Editor, | suspect
all of them, have not heard Of that never
absent companion Of the shark, called the
pilot fish. He has this name, because he
always goes before the shark, especially
when the latter is in search of food. The
following is an account of one among
many sights of the kind which have seen
in the great deep.
On a homeward.bound passage from
Liverpool, a few years since, in the mouth
of August, we were becalmed. The
weather was fine, and having number
of passengers on board, all of whom seem.
ed anxious to be relieved from the same
ness of the scene, we made an attempt to
take very large shark, which had been
seen playing about the ship for number
of days. A shark.hook was accordingly
baited and thrown out TO him, and though
he had before devoured every thing eatable
which had been thrown over to him, he
now refused the bait upon the hook
And yet he manifested the greatest anxiety
10 seize he would swim round and round
! il, dart up 10 it, and then fly off again.
After some hours, We threw over other
pieces of meat like that upon the hook, and
these were instantly seized and devoured
by the shark. while he refused the bait upon
the hook.
The cause of this was soon explained.
The hook was let down into the water just
under the stern of the ship, and immediate.
ly little fish, somewhat resembling 4
mackerel, was seen swimming ahead Of
the shark, perhaps two or three inches
from his head. Now, this little fish would
ever and anon dart up to the baited hook,
and as quickly dart off again, followed still
by the shark, while the shark would often
in being led away from the bait, thrash him.
self about in the water, and seem to mani.
fest the greatest paroxysms Of rage. Final
ly, the little fish yielded, though with seeming
reluctance, to the will of the monster; and
darting up he passed directly under the
baited hook, which was seized at the same
time by the shark; and in second or two,
he was upon the deck Of the vessel.
The pilot fish now manifested the most
evident signs of grief and confusion, Tor
whatever else you please to call it.) He
darted about in the water in every direction,
sometimes leaping out of the water, as if
anxious to follow his companion.
The next morning, that sapre little fish
was seen few inches ahead of the vessel,
and when any thing eatable was thrown
overheard, he was seen to dart off toward
| it as if to draw The attention of the shark
to his food, as before; and it was number
of DAYS before he left the ship.
