The Bible.-We do not know where there is
so good description of the Bible, in SO small
compass, as is TO be found in the article below
from the Hartford Courier:
A nation must be truly blessed, if it were go
verned by no other law than those OF this blessed
book; il is so complete system that nothing can
be added to or taken from it; it contains every
thing needful tobe known or done; It affords CO.
py for king and rule for subject; it gives
instruction and council to senate, authority and
direction to magistrate it cautions witness,
requires an impartial verdict, of a jury, and fur
nishes Judge with his sentence; it sets the hns-
band as lord or the household, and the wife as
mistress of the table: tells him how to rule and
her how TO manage 1t entails honor to parents
and enjoins obedience upon children; it prescri-
bes and limits the sway of sovereigns, the rule
Of the ruler and authority of the master; COM
mands the subject to honor and the servant to
obey; and promises the protection Of its author
to all who walk by its rules 1t gives directions
for weddings and for burias; it promises food and
raiment, and limits the use of both; it points out
faithful and eternal guardian to the departing
husband and father; tells him with whom to leave
his fatherless children and in whom his widow
is to trust, and promises father TO the former
and husband to the latter. II teaches man
how he ought to set his house in order, and how
to make his will; il appoints dowry for the wife,
and entails right of the first -born and shows
how the Younger branches shall be left II de-
tends the rights Of all and reveals vengeance TO
the defrauder over reacherand oppressor. It's the
first book and the oldest book in the world 1t con-
tans the choicest matter, gives the best instIuc-
tion and affords the greatest pleasure and salts
faction that ever were revealed. 1t contains the
best laws and profoundest mysteries that ever
were penned 1t brings the best tidings, and af-
fords the best of comforts to the inquiring and
disconsolate 1t exhibits life and immortality,
and shows the way to everlasting glory. II is a
brief recital Of all that is to come. 1t settles all
matters in debate, resolves all doubts, and eases
the mind and conscience of all their scruples 1t
reveals the only living and true God, and shows
the way TO him; and sets aside all other gods,
and describes the vanity of them, and Of all that
put their trust on them.

A HINT To GRIs-We have always considered
II unerrng sign of innate vugarity, when we hear
ladies take particular pains to impress with an idea
Of their ignorance Of all domestic matters save sewing
lace or weaving net TO incasc their delicate hands.
Ladies by some curious kind Of hocus pocus have got
il into bex heads that the best way catch husband
is to show how profoundly capable they Of doing
nothing Tor his comfort Frightening pianointo fits,
or numbering the kings French may be good bait
for certain kinds Of fish, but they must be Of that kind
usually found in very shaoB icdters The surest way
to secure good husband is TO cultivate those accom-
plshments which make good wife.
