Why are not the books published By the
American Sunday School Union
mare generally circulated in New
England?
1t has been said that our books are moi
and cannot be bold and decided in matters
of faith, because We have bound ourselves
to silence, or 10 speak only by an arbitra-
nv rule. What is this rule? WHY sim
ply that the truths we incuIcate shall be
the great essential truths which evangel-
ical Christians hold in common. And
what other truths need we inculcate2
When this objection was assumed some
months since, by highly respectable
gentleman in New England l as ked him
to do US the favor TO read certain books,
with copies of which he was furnished.
and tell me what we had been compelled,
by our organization, to omit, which he
would think it important TO include. A.
mong them were, First Lessons on the
great principles of Religion" Christ
our SGoiour." Pastors Counsels,"" Me-
uoirs Of S. E. Bingham" "Lit> of Pc
ter and "Lje OF PeGrce." If" said
|, "our terms of union will allow US to
publish any one of these books, will you
he kind enough to name an essential mat
ter of faith which these terms will debar
US from illustrating and enforcing2" e.
He is fully satisfied, believe, that the
objection is not we'll founded. We can
now add" Memoirs of Pious Women
/ and our "8Union Bible Dictionary, as
furnishing a conclusive answer to the
above objection. which I see not how any
fair mind acquainted with facts, can en-,

RELIGIOUS MISCELLANY.

HALF RELlGIoN.-If conversion be
work supernatural in it's origin, and de-
cisive in its effects, then, most assuredly,
bare profession of religion, and a casual
attention to its duties, is not Conversion.
All is natural, perfectly natural; nothing
supernatural here 1t is natural that eve-
~ individual should desire just as much
religion as he imagines will satisfy God,
and keep himself from 1.-The worm that
never dies, and the fire that never shall
BE- qnenched." The supernatural effect
begins when the love of God, and the
delight in Christ, and the desire for heav.
en-, are all springing up as powerfully
influential in the heart, the love Of sin.
and the delight in this worlds pleasures,
and the desire for this worlds advantages
once were. The supernatural effect be-
gins where the realities Of an unseen
world more powerfully influence every
thought, and motive, and desire, than the
far closer and more pressing realizes OF
time and sense; when sin becomes sbso--
lutel Y hateful to us, and Christ proper.
tionabIy precious, and holiness in all our
ways and all our works increasingly de-
sired; when the love Of God and obedi-
ence to his commands is the one great
object OF the renewed heart. the convinced
conscience, the spiritually enfr1nchised
will. Where is the decision of that mans
mind who lives for both worlds, perhaps
throughout long life, vibrating like
pendulum between heaven and hell; not
knowing himself. unknown to all around
him. to which of those two widely differ.
ent eteInities the last vibration Of the
pendulum shall incline ?-BLunt
