The Law of Kindness.

A teacher had requested a boy seven years
of age, 10 do some trifing thing. He re-
fused. Instead of a reproof, or a blow, she
remained silent. He, waiting for the expect
ed reprimand, stood sullen. After some
time, she turned 10 him, and kindly said,
''my ?oor boy, | am sorry for you, | am sor-
~ you are willing to make yourself so I'M
happy by disobedience." His heart was
touched ; bursting into tears, he exclaimed,
81 will he good, l will be good,' and per-
forming the desired act, gave no more trou-
Bile to his instructor.

welfare of criminals. Not soon, | think for
Gods rule Of justice and benevolence is not
yet done away.
Some editors abroad seem 10 think that
Potter's protested penitence entitled him to a
Communication of punishment, according TO the
gospel. But the ground of forgiveness in the
gospel is mol repentance, but The atonement of
Christ. The atonement has a moral effect
for the support of law which may be substi-
tuted for the effect of the penalty 10 the same
end in the case of believers. But human
governments have no atonement-no provis-
ion apart from the penalty to sustain the law
and therefore it is idle, it is suicidal TO talk
of forgiveness. There can be no analogy
here between human governments and the d.
vine. Without the shedding of blood there
is no remission" Without a complete atone
ment, an adequate basis of forgiveness, ade-
quate in respect to the support of law and
government, the penalty must be inflicted, OF
| every interest of government abandoned a
penalty which shall be a just and appropriate
expression of the lawgiver at the crime. Let
evangelical Christians consider that the same
reasoning which would abolish Capital Pun
ishment for the crime of murder, would over
throw the moral government of God. Men
would arrest justice because it is dreadful,
not thinking that its dreadfulness is excel
lence and power, that flaming sword alone
can guard an Eden Of bliss in a world of sin.
intended to have said something of the
admonition addressed to young men by the
fate of the once moral and professedly Chris
tan youth. How earnestly did he warn
them from the scaffold to beware Of the haunts
of vice! Oh, that that warning might ring
i. the ears of every young man in New York.
He went from curiosity and looked in at the
gate of hell, but though he started back af-
frighted, he took fire before he could retreat,
and that fire consumed him. "Lust when it
is conceived bringeth forth sin, and sin when
it is finished bringeth forth DEATH" Let
young men beware how they expose them
selves to the excitement of carnal desires.

Said an old gentleman TO me, "When i
was a young man, before [ had any children,
l used TO have a robin in a cage, and it atior-
ded me much company and amusement,
while | was in my shop. One pleasant day,
as it was outside the door, an old Quaker
gentleman, who owned one slave, stopped
and said to me, "Thomas dost thou think it
right to confine a bird in a cage, for thy own
qualification ? Because its song is sweet to
thee, is it right to seclnde it from the society
of It's mates!" The reply was, 81 think it
is very much like slavery" The Quaker
passed on, not a word more was spoken, but
a few days witnessed the freedom of both
bird and slave. Thomas became in after
life a public man, and his hostility to sla-
very, excited, as he thought, by the question
Of the Quaker, was in many ways evinced.
1t influenced not only his feelings in relation
to our colored population, but his intercourse
with ordinary men, in everyday life and he
long enjoyed the character of a kind and
generous man.

the seasons have been getting drier every.
year. Humboldt, speaking of the Valley OF
Aragua in Venezuela, says that the lake re-
ceded as agriculture advanced, until beautiful
plantations of sugar-cane, banana and cotton
trees were established on its banks, which
(banks) yer after year were farther from
them. After the separation Of that Province
from Spain, and the decline Of agriculture
amid the desolating wars which swept over
this beautiful region, the process Of clearing
was arrested, the old lands grew up in trees
with that rapidity common to the tropics, and
in a few years the inhabitants were alarmed
by a rise of the waters and an inundation ut
their choicest plantations.-SouM CaroHnian.

SONG OF ~PHONOGRAPHY.

@ this is the age for invention, I'm sure;
There never were heard Of 80 many before.
We have flying aerials-drawing by Light
And a long list of others that give us delight.
And wonders of steam we may daily behold,
And science will still many glories unfold
But search the whole range of this busy world
round,
The most wonderful wonder is Writing by
Sound.
Then write away, fly away; did yOu not
dream
That Britons ere long would be writing
by steaml
Your dreams nearly true, but steam it
is found
Won't do for the work, so we're writing
by sound.
Now Pitman's the man that invented this
scheme,
And the thanks of the world are, think, due
to him;
For SO brief and SO clear is his system of
writing,
So rational too, and so truly inviting;
The jabber of Tafiy-the splutter Of Pat
The japanese gibberish-tie Frenchman's

The chong-tongs of China-the Indians
wahoo-
Are all in an instant made plain to your view.
Then write away, fly away did you not

The signs for the sounds are SO simple and
small,
They occupy scarce any paper at all;
There's n page in a line IA book in a sheet!

THE EFFECTS OF SLAVERY ON
THE SOCIAL SYSTEM.

Behold that mother with her looks so wild!
Her Tears are streaming down her ebon
cheek;
She bids eternal farewell to her child,
And full of anguish strives in vain to speak.
Her grief, alas, her utterancc wholly chokes,
She clasps her child the closer TO her heart;
In silence, and in anguish she invokes
Blessings on him from whom she soon
must part.
Near by behold her tyrant master stand,
With looks that Danish hopes last glim-
meriug ray,
Whilst with a tone Of fierce and stern com
mand,
He harshly bids them take the child away.
One instant more, and then the child is torn
From his poor mothers vain and feeble
hold
And PROSTATE now with grief and wo forlorn,
She cries, "Oh, master, must my child be
sold
$50 young, so loved without a mothers
care
In distant fields to toll sad and alone
Oh, master, hear a frantic mothers prayer,
And sell, oh sell me with my only son."
As well attempt the rushing stream to turn,
And upward change it in its rapid course,
Her fearful prayers are answered but with
ScoTn,
Her choking sobs are stopped with brutal
force.
Oh, mothers fair, could I to you reveal
One half the anguish to that captive known,
In faith and hope 10 heaven you would kneel,
And toll and pray ill slavery was Ger
thrown.

THE FATHER is COMING.
BY MARY HowITT.

The clock is on the stroke Of six,
The fathers work is done;
Sweep up the hearth and mend the fire,
And put the kettle on!
The wild night-wind is blowing cold,
IT'S dreary crossing DER the void.
He's crossing DER the wold apace,
He's stronger than the storm
He does not feel the cold, not he,
His heart it is SO warm;
For fathers heart is stout and true
AS ever human bosom knew!
He makes all toll, all hardship, Light
Would all men were the same,
So ready TO be pleased, so kind,
So very slow TO blame!
Folks need not be unkind, ~austere,
For love hath reader will than fear!
Stay, do not close the shutter, child,
For far along the lane
The little window looks, and he
Can see it shining plain;
I've heard him say he loves to mark
The cheerful fire light through the dark.
And we'll do all that father likes!
His wishes are so few
Would they were more! that every hour
Some wish Of his | knew
I'm sure it makes a happy day
When / can please him any way!
l know he's coming by this sign
That baby's almost wild;
See how he laughs, and crows, and stares
Heaven bless the merry child!
His fathers self in face and limb,
And fathers heart is strong in him!
Hark bark! | hear his footsteps now
He's through the garden gate;
Run little Bess and ope the door,
And do not let him wait!
Shout, baby, shout! and clasp thy hands
For father at the Threshold stands.
