CHRISTIANS DISSIMILAR.

We must not expect that all persons will see
the truths of religion with equal distnctness, or
feel an equal degree of JOY, on being first brought
fom darkness into Gods marvellous light
While some pass in moment from the deepest
anguish, to the most rapturous emotions of JOY
AID gratitude, others are intro uced so gradual
iy into the kingdom, that they are hardly able to
tell when they entered it. The subject may be
illustrated by the different views and emotions
which would be excited in three blind persons
of whom one should be restored to sight at mid
night, mother at dawn, and a third amid the
Rplend,rs of the meridian sun. The first, although
his sight might be perfectly restored as that
of the others, would yet doubt, for some time
whether any change had been effected in him,
AMI trembie, lest the faint outlines of the objects
around him, which he so indistincty discovered
shuld prove to be the creation of his own fancy
TIKI second, although he might, at first, feel al
moa assured of the change which had been
wrmght upon him. would yet experience grad
ualR increasing confidence and hope, as the light
Frightened around him, while the third, upon
whose surprised and dazzled vision burst at once
the tefulgence Of midday, would be transported
bewldered, and almost overwhelmed, with the
excuses of surprise, and joy, and gratitude

WRITTEN IN AN ALBUM

Now strike the Tyre, now sweep its strings,
But yet no bliss its music brings;
Its hallowed strains have lost their power,
Because they sing the parting hour
But oh when other clines shall be
resting place for you and me-
Then shall its plaintive notes anew
Awake their power, and sing Of you.

[Youngs Night Thoughts

"APRIL.-A more clustering uncomfortable
month than this same April has proved itself, we
do not remember to have experienced. Its snow
storms have been of the chilliest, its hail of the
hardest and its weather altogether bleak, raw
and rough such crude mixture of mud and
mre, such a conglomeration of black clouds, pier
ring winds and cold rains, that few will be dis
posed to subscribe to the opinion Of our patient
friend of the Gazette, that bad as April is, it is
great deal better than we deserve. The times
have certainly fallen into bad way, and there are
a great many bad people about, and it may really
he true that we deserve all the bad weather that
April has brought US. If so we hope all manner
and sorts of people will forthwith set about mend
ing their ways; one of the readest means of
doing which will be, perhaps, for every man to
mind his own business, put his shoulder to the
wheel, and rely upon those old fashioned helps,
Industry and Economy. With this assistance
and "divine PERMISSION we shall,not dispaif Ct
soon chronicliRg brighter sun and better times"

Mr.. EDITOR We take the liberty to recon-
mend to the readers of the Telegraph who are
afflicted with that most distressing maladv called
the "6lues"-and who are for charging off all their
obliquites of looks feelings and actions upon the

practice, will be an unfaling remedy for the dis
case. i.
Art thou detected Isl thy mind o er-cust'
To chase thy gloom-go fix some weighty truth
Teach ignorance to see, grief to smile;
Correct thy friend; befriend thy greatest foe;
Or with warm heart and confidence divine,
Spring up, and lay strong hold on Him who made
thee.
Thy gloom is scatter'd, sprightly spirits tlow

NEW VOLUME

OF the Chronicle will commence on the l5ih
of the present month, under auspices OF ihe
most flattering character. Our subscription list
since the first of January last, has nearly d0u-
bled, and our immense patronage enables US to
bring into operation many Improvements OF an
important character. Our files of English pc
riodicals has greatly increased, and the aid of
additional correspondents of high reputation has
been secured for the coming volume. We fear
lessly assert, that for the ensuing twelve months
we shall be enabled to furnish mass of valua-
bic literary matter, not exceeded in interest by
the contents of any similar newspaper IN the
world, and that too at about half the price de-
manded by our contemporaries! The secret OF
this low price is, that we have adopted the cash
system We neither ask nor give credit, and
therefore are enabled to pure hase paper and
other articles on the most favourable terms

THE CONSTITUTION.

What is that we call the Constitution The
constitution is evidently that which constitutes,
and that which constitutes is the 6tOod We, there
fore. know that the blood is the constitution, and
that good or bad constitution is neither more nor
less than good or bad state of the blood. There IS
no person who having lost health, does not wish to
have il restored. Use then tie proper naecns. Ex-
pei with PurgGtioe Medicine all currupt humors
from tie body, and the blessing, Heath, will be
the certain result: for all pains or unpleasant ieel-
iuas proceed from the presence of corrupt or VI
tiated humors, which are the real cause OF every
disease and therefore the only disease 20 which the
human frame is subject, because they clog up the
veins and arterieS and prevent the free circulation
of the blood.
BraadretFs Vegetable UniverSal Pills cure this
disease: because they remove the corrupt or vi
tiated humors by the stomach and bowels, leaving
the good humors TO give life and health to the bo-
dy. II is morally impossible that they can fail TO
cure. provided Nature is not entirely exhausted.

they deserve far more praise than you seem IN

Harrison,s specific Ointment.

The great celebrity of this unrivalled Compost
tion-especially in the Northern States--leaves
the proprietor but little need to say any thing in
its favor for it has been generally conceded to 1t,
that it is beyond all comparison the best remedy
for external complaints that has ever been dlscov-
cred Indeed the speed and certainty of its oper-
atons have the appearance OF miracles: as ulcers,
wounds corns, fever sores chilblains, white swell
lings, biles, piles, spider and snake bites &c
Immediately yield to its apparently super human
influence. Thus if properly applied it will remove
an inveterate corn break and heal bile IN five
DAYS, will allav and perfectly cure an ulcer In two
weeks and the most desperate cases OF white
swelling that can be imagined, have been destroyed
by it in less than two months. In the bites OF
poisonous reptiles its efficacy is truly surprising;
and even in the bite of rabid dog, for if applied
in time, it's powers of attraction are so wonderful
that they will at once arrest the poison and thus
prevent it from pervading the system. 1t is like
wise greatly superior to any medicine heretofore
discovered for the chafed backs and limbs OF horses
for letters, ring worms, chapped lips,-and in
short for every external bodily evil that may fall
to the lot of man or beast.
The proprietor has received at least thousand
certificates and other documents, in favor OF his
"Spec1fc Ointment" upwards hundred of which
were written by respectable members OF the Med
ical Faculty; and in selecting from this pile the
following samples, he was governed more by their
brevity than their contents as they all breath the
same spirit of eulogy and satisfaction.
