The Preaching of Bunyan.

The Bible was his principal library. But with
scarcely any other book than this, he was the
most eminent minister of his age, if usefulness
may be considered the standard of eminence.
1t is related of the learned Dr.. Owen, that on a
certain occasion, after having heard John Bunyan
preach, with much power and spirituality, and on
being asked if he had been to hear the tinker,
the name by which Bunyan, in reference TO his
occupation, was scofingy designated, the doctor
replied, 4 have indeed, and if by surrender OF
all the human learning have acquired, could
preach with the ability and the heavenly JUNCTION
of Mr.. Bunyan, the sacrifice should be cheerfully
made"
Bunyan is but one instance, among multitude
that could be named, of the talent that mig be
cultivated and the eloquence that might be elicit
ed, by careful and truly conscientious and reli-
gious study of the Book of God. The man who,
in his public ministration, would reason with the
most effect, must argue on the principles OF reve-
lation. There is presented system OF logic, built
on the facts relating to God and eternity, which is
unerring in all its rudeness, infaibe in all its
premises, and infexibe, just, and correct in all
its deductions. TIe who would arrest the con-
science of the bold transgressor, or awaken the
stupor of the careless and sef-deceived, must
pluck his arrows of conviction from the Bible, and
ann theHl, WIN an eloqueuce WHICH d ueep ac-
quaintance with that book can alone inspire at the
feelings, the sinful habits and the corrupt but Sc
cret propensities, of those whom he would recall
to duty and to God. 1t is because the models Of
inspiration are kept out of sight, and superse
ded by courtly mode of address, and model of
argument built on the basis of carnal reasoning,
that so little is done by large portion of modern
preachers.
They go the people with much fancied strength
bu: their panoply resembles that of David, armed
with Saul's armor. They return from their la
Dor with satisfaction because they see no lasting
impression made on their auditory Unlike Da-
vid they refuse the sling and stone simple de-
pendence on God, and the efficacy of his truth ;
and disappointment is the consequence.

Reading too Fast.

ANECDoTE OF AN AFRICAN PREAcAER.-There
lived in his immediate vicinity respectable man,
who had become interested on the subject of reli-
| ligion and who had begun with some earnesnest-
ness to search the Scriptures. He had read but
few chapters when he became greatly perplexed
with some of those passages which an inspired
Iapose has declared to be =" hard to be understood
In this state of mind he repaired to our preacher
for instruction and help, and found him at noon,
on sultry day in summer, aboriousy engaged
in hoeing his corn. AS the man approached the
preacher with patriarcha simplicity eant upon the
handle of his hoe, andstened tohis story. "Un-
Gle jack" said he, 81 have discovered lately that
| am great sinner and commenced reading the
Bible, that may learn what must do to be saved.
But have met witha passage here" holding up
his Bible, (" which Ixnow not what to do with 1t
is this' God will have mercy upon whom he will
have mercy and whom he will he hardeneth'
What does this meang A sh ort pause interven-
ed and the old African replied as follows, :" Mas
ter ii have been rightly informed ithas not been
more than day or two since you began to read
the Bible, and, if remember rightly, that passage
you have mentioned is away yonder in Romans.
Long before you get to that, at the very beginning
of the gospel it is sad Repent, for the kingdom
of heaven is at hand. Now, have you done with
that ?-The truth is, you read entirely too fast
You must Begin again and take things as God has
been pleased to place them. When you have done
all that you are told to do in Matthew come and
we'll talk about Romans"
Having thus answered, the old preacher Eesum-
ed his work, and left the man 10 his own reAec-
tons. Who does not admire the simplicity and
good sense which characterized this reply? Could
the most learned polenic more effectually have
met and disposed of such difficulty? The gen.
teman particularly Interested in this incident gave
me an account of it with his own lips. He still
lives, and will in all probability see this statement
Of it.
Most readily will he testify to its strict sccura-
ry; and most readily will he now say, as he said
to me then, at convinced me most fully of the
mistake into which had fallen. | took the old
mans advice; | saw its propriety and wisdom,

RELIGION.

Religion-holy religion, ought not in the words
of its founder, to be {" led into temptation" The
hand that holds her chalice should be pure; the
priests of her temple should be spotless as the
vestments of her ministry. Rank only degrades
wealth only impoverishes ornaments only dis
figure her. Her sacred porch becomes the more
sublime from its simplicity, and should be seated
on an eminence inaccessible to human passions.
would have her pure, unpensioned unstipendia-
Try. | would have her, in word, like the bow OF
the irmanent-her summit should be the sky her
boundaries the horizon; but the only color that
adorned her should be caught from the tear OF
earth, as it exhaled; and glowed, and glitered in
the sunbeams of heaven. Such is my idea of
what religion ought TO be.--E1tract from speech
of CoanSel3or Philips, an Irish BarriSter.

THE VOICE OFFREED OM.

Hebrews, and talk so sagely about the imperti-
hence of Northern interference, as we'll as those
who think the guilt of slavery is all chargeabIe up
on past generations and that the present slavehold
ers are under the stern necessity of perpetuating
an institution which 40 possible contingency can
make right but which has been sanctioned and
sanctifed by two hundred years of legislation,
might read it and be rebuked, corrected, and in
struced. Having been written in the cool days Of
90 there is very little to fear from its fnCendiary
character, and we believe that there is not enough
of the 'WidGre of Abolitonism" in it to dissolve
the Union" if we read the whole -Vergemnes

A MoURNER.-Jesus was 'aman of sorrows
and acquainted with grief He knew what it
was to be mourner. He once stood by the grave
of beloved friend, that had died in his alb
sence, and had been buried four days before he
reached the afflicted family. Where have you
laid him % he inquired and they led him to the
grave. "Jesus wept."-His grief was poignant
he wept freely; perhaps his sobs were audible.
The scene was such that the spectators of it were
constrained to say, "Behold, how he loved him. "
What spectacle! The Lord Jesus mourner
at the grave of Lazarus, believing his grave with
tears.
o! is there not consolation for the bereaved ?
Go, mourner, go and weep-it is not unchristian
-bedew with tears the sacred spot where is "gar-
nered up" the dust of the beloved and lost. But
let'no murmur escape thy lps-let no repining
thought disturb the serenity of thy BOSOM You
will come away prepared to meet with frmer res
