THE VOICE OF PRAYER

Beautiful is it 10 see the little child clasp its
'iny hands together, and lisp its innocent accents
ol praise 10 Be'ng-ideal and nvisbe-but pre-
sented TO the young mind as the embodiment of
condescendng affection and glory unsurpassed
10 our mind religion is one of the brightest charms
OF the female character, Men may be embroed
IN the harsh conflicts of the world-he may be
thrust out of the track OF sedate contemplation.
ana may be less thoughtful of those high duties
which every Christian should observe bat woman,
gentle in movement and pure in aspiraton-in
form like an angel, and in heart Affect mate, self
denying, truthful; around her religion sheds ra-
dance which not only illumnes her own earthly
path, but penetrates with genial warmth into the
breast OF man-soolhes the tempes,uous waves of
NE, and wins him into due regard for the ines
unable privilege of addressing the great 81 AM"
OF the universe, in the language Of suppcation
and devotional love.

Inc eccentric Rowland Hill, among the numer-

the following: O''''eieu
"A humble partaker in Christ desires 70 know
why Brother Hill finds it necessary to ride to church
IN sumpuous carriage, when his Divine WaStor
never rode any where, except on an ass %
oPon which pious inquiry, Brother Hill.n
a.oong up MS Spectacles on his forehead, and with
would say in answer to my humble brother
that hare carriage, but no beast such as our
master rode. However, if my worthy brother will
present himself at the door of my dwelling on next
Lords day, ready saddled and brdled, will ride
