PLAN OF RELIGIOUS UsroN-It appears
from the British Journals, that the late
meeting in Liverpool, on the subject of
Union Of Effort among Evangelical Prot
estants of different names throughout the
world, was one of very deep and thrilling
interest. Ten different scots Of Protes.
tants were represented at the meeting; and,
after most free expression of sentiments,
the following cardinal doctrines were
agreed upon, with entire unanimity, as the
basis of Union:
| ]. The Divine inspiration and authority
of the Holy Scriptures.
2. The doctrine Of the Trinity.
8. The utter depravity Of human nature,
in consequence of the fall
4. The incarnation and atonement Of the
Lord Jesus Christ.
5. Justification of the sinner by faith
alone.
6. The work of the Holy Spirit in the
conversion and specification of the sinner.
7. The divine ordinance of the Chris
tian Ministry, and the perpetuity of the sa-
craments of Baptism and the Lords Sup
per-
8. The right of private judgment in the
Interpretation of the Holy Scriptures.
The members of no denomination COM
promised, in the slightest degree, their dis
tinctive principles; but all recognizing the
right of each to inculcatc his own peculiar
sentiments, and yet agreeing on those grand
fundamental truths deemed essential to sal
walton, they resolved on a course Of united
action, which it is believed will ere long
result in something more than the express
sion of harmonious sentiments or friendly
| feelings.
Committees were appointed to take into
consideration the bearings Of various rcso-
lutions adopted by this preliminary mcc-
ting. and to prepare, in detail, a plan for the
great convention Of all evangelical denom-
| nations, to be held at London next juno.

A Few HINTS TO KEEP AWAY HARD
TIMEs.--Rise early in the morning, and be
diligent during the day in attending to our
business, and not worry ourselves by our
neighbours copcerns.
Instead of following the fashions of Eu.
rope, let US cultivate spirit of independ!
ence, and decide for ourselves how our
coats, hats and boots shall be made.
Keep out of the streets, unless business
calls US to transact that which we cannot
do in our stores, shops, or dwellings.
By all means keep away from drinking
and gambling houses.
When we buy an article Of clothing,
study commendable economy, at the same
| time get a good article, and when made
take particular care of it, and wear i, out
regardless of any change of fashion. FASH
ion is a great tyrant, and men are fools to
be slaves to it.
Stay at home nights, improve our studies
by reading, writing, or instructive CONVEX
sation, and retire to our beds at an early
hour.
Be kind to relatives, obliging 10 our
friends, and charitable to all.
