THE FIRE AND THE WORM.

The mental operations of him who is under
deep and pungenr convictions fer sin and with
whom The Spirit of God is striving to subdue his
heart, are Of the most interesting character. A
converted Indian was asked how he knew that he
had experienced a change OF heart. He gave no
answer. He was asked if he saw the power.
"No."
"No.n
s.Yes.'

He paused moment and then kneeiing upon
the sand made small circle of chips and dry
leaves. He then got worm and placed il inside
tie ring and with spark from his pipe lieh hted
the pile. The poor worm when it began 10 feel
the heat crepi first to one point then 10 another
and at last alter many Intellectual attempts 10 get

ed il crawled TO the centre as ii in despair, and
coilcd itself up awaiting the result. Whom he
began to feel the heat too sensibly, the Indian
took it in his fingers and placed il outside the
ring in safety.

I was like that poor worm; the fires OF hell

the skeletons is nineteen inches. Some OF
these people appear to have lived to great
age, their teeth being worn smooth end
short, while others are full and long. Ma
ny of the tombs (graves) have been opened
and the skeletons examined. The graves
are abouttwo feet deep,the collins are made

horses, each worth three hundred dollars, are
constantly employed. One copper boiler will

The FArE OF GAMBLER.-The course OF
"Riley OF Bath" is not one al all unsuiled 10 our
pages The career OF such professor is he
miiy against his profession, and never kad ca
reer so pointed moral as his But we are COM
PEELED reluctantly TO give way TO those who have
better claim 10 the attention of our readers
Let il suffice to say that Riley lived life of the
most gorgeous luxury and ravagauce-that
he was the companion of sovereigns-that he
squandered money with profusion amounting
10 insanity, and won il by good fortune that
seemed connected with The supernatural; nor was
he free from generous and daring sentiments
He, on one occasion, risked an entire colossal
fortune on the hazard of the die against a Rus.
