The Country School Iouae.
Having spent a few years Of my early life
in retired part of the town of T., lately
returned to the ncighborhood, with the inten-
ton of rctracing many interesting scenes Of
youthful enjoyment, and designing to mark
the changes which time had wrought among
my former associates and acquaintance,
1t is lovely glcbc Of land, stretching along
the shores Of The bright and beautiful Cham
plain, bounded on the opposite side by bro
ken ridge of mountains,an divided into farm
ing establishments, where quiet, plenty and
contentmcnt seem to have found q lasting res
idcnce. As I travelled lcisurcly along the
main road, noticed with no little satisfac-
ton that the general aspect Of the noighbor-
hood was but slightly changed. True, some
Of the cottages had been rcmodeled, newly
painted, and supplied with additional out
houses, which marked the industry and thrift
of the rural inhabitants, while others were
falling to dccay;-but there were the same
curves and turns in the road as in former
days,-it crossed the same babbling brook, it
climbed the same hill, it passed the same
grove, which in years gone by, had been con-
sdcrcd q sort of halfway between the resi-
dences Of a delightful portion Of my young
acquaintance and often when we had spent
the evenings in convivial pleasures, and the
mild rays Of the full orbed moon rcposcd in
quiet beauty upon this delightful landscape,
we have walked to this lovely spot, and be-
meath these silent shades exchanged a kind
"good night" There were the same OPEN
ings in the mountains, which the hand of in
dustry had long since Invested of their forest
covering, to enlarge the pasture lands which
afford subsistence to herds of cattle and Aocks
of sheep, which are reared in this neighbor-
hood. There was the pond,sprcad out before
me in all its former tempting beauty, still
sparkling with the reflected rays of the noon
day sun, and felt an indefinablc sensation Of
nervousness, when | reflected how often my
eye had ranged its CLASSY surface, fearing to
detect some truant, missing lad in an act Of
disobcdiencc; for there might be unlocked
for danger, and could not answer for the
consequences during the hours he was con-
fdingly entrusted to my care.

! RELIGIOUS LIBERTY. 1t is stated by
New York paper that the Centenary church
Brooklyn, which was implicated in the tria
of Rev. j. Matlit's case, before the Methods
Conference, was rendered, that the Bishop
had supreme control over the pulpit of the
church, and that the officers and pastors o
the church had no right TO admit any one
to the pulpit without the consent OF tho
Bishop, Immediately withdrew from the con
ference, and became an independent church
Certainly very sensible conclusion AS il
the House of Worship, with its pulpit and
pews, belonged to the Conference, and not tc
those who built it and paid forit AS if the
latter were to have no control over then
own pulpit and seats And yet this is the
doctrine maintained by several of the most
respectable, pious and powerful dcnomina-
tions in this country. 1t is stated that the
First Prcsbytery of New York have not
only assumed to control a particular pulpit
upon a particular occasion, but passed
the following sweeping resolution, that
" no vacant church shall employ any
man to preach to them more than three
Sabbaths, without consent Of the presbytery
first obtained" This pretty nearly CUTLER
DDS all Papal experiments upon mankind
and for the life of us, we see but precious
little difference between Papal and Prcsby-
terrain assumption.

heart, which had been touched with sorrow
he discoursed largely of the christians calling
and charactcr,which should partake Of the pu-
rity Of Heaven. His reasonings were logical
and clear, and his conclusions forcibIe and

As he proceeded, by the light of inspira-
ton he caught glimpse of the glories of the
upper world, and the happiness of its cees-
tial inhabitants he eXhorted the sinner to
"seek first the kingdom Of heaven" and en-
couraged the sorrow stricken heart to "hopc

His auditory were scnsibly affected and
many were melted to tears. At the close of
the service, few remained for exhortation
and prayer-a practice we'll calculated to
promote the piety Of isolated neighborhoods,
where social meetings are necessarily few
Among these was an aged individual, who
seemed the last Of his generation-llc a rem
nant of time upon the confines of eternity-a
yestige of mortality upon the brink of the
rave,-himself his own illustration, as feel
ingly he dwelt upon the shortness of time, the
uncertainty of earthly bliss, and the happi-
ness of possessing a well grounded hope in
heaven. When last l knew him, though past
the meridian of life, he still guided the pillow
with strong hand, and with stately step
he walked his pleasant domain, while the
music of his voice echoed over his fields,
and it seemed as if age had suddenly frozen
the energies Of his being, and reduced him to
the wreck which stood before ne.

This truthful remark was ever in mind
when I met any of my acquaintance, and
1 was ever ready to cxclaim, How old you
have grown" Time had done its work all
had changed, and all had tasted more or less
of the cup of sorrow.
Oh time in thy flight thou hast passed over ali,
And astspread for our lairest, thy funeral pail
Oh, where,a the loves of our earlier years?
(They have proved the fount of our flowing tears,)
And the Iightsome step, and the joyous eye,
The braided locks in their chestnut dye,
The voice of song, and the eye of light,
The hopes, which imagcd the future bright,
With the merry hearts of our youthful prime?
They are strown in the blight of thy touch, time!

Hope for the Future,

There is perhaps nothing more important
to the mental and physical well being of man.
than, that his mind has some object, the
requirement Of which he considers important
to his future welfare and happiness. 1t is a
striking proof ofthc wisdom and goodness OF
our Creator, that he has placed within the
human breast m ardent longing for that we
have not, for blessings we have never re-
ceived, and for happiness exceeding that
which may have fallen to our lot in the past
and finally for Immortality
Well is it formm that he looks to the fl-
ttlre with joyful anticipations and with lofty
hopes the sorrows Of the Present are less
ened thereby, 6, he chcerfully encounters diff
icultics, which were it for the joys which
the Future unfolds before his yiew,would seem
insurmountablc.
The mariner tossing ON the ocean bilow
fearlessly resists the power Of wind and wave,

to his heart and strength to his stalwart arm.
lie pictures to himself the joys that are in
store for him he greots in fancy his aged
parents, his wife, his child he rccounts his
adventures on sea and land, and is happy
happy while dreaming of the pleasures which
his home affords, though yet the dark blue
waves of ocean lie all around him.
The laborer rises with the morning sun
and happily the day of toll gildes on until its
close, for he dreams of plentiful harvest,
harvest which may amply repay him for his
laborS and add an increase to his Ii tile store !;
and though disappointment may for moment
throw shadow over his prospects,still he per-
sevcres, and eventually receives his reward.
Who then can say, that it is not well to have
one object constantly in view, which may
claim our undivided attention while threading
the devious paths of life. Unless there be
something to lean on in the hour Of trial some
thing to cherish, to hope for no matter what
it is,our life will be like a journey which the
traveller neither wishes to end or takes
pleasure in continuing.

Davies First Lessons, and his Mathe-
NAUTICAL Works,

We call the attention of our readers, who are
all interested in systems Of common school edu-
cation, to the Recommendation of our State and
County Superintendents, which will be found
among the advertisements. Mr. Davies is one Of
the frst mathemaicians of this country; his sys-
TENS Of Mathematics, first introduced at West
Point, have gone into use as textbooks in most
OF the colleges and academies of the Union; but
much embarrassment and difficulty has been cx-
perieneed by the aeademical and collegiate stu
dent, in consequence of the different systems and
authors, used in the common and primary schools.
To remedy this, Professor Davies has compiled
his First Lessons" so as to furnish complete
and uniform connected system of Mathematics.
from the frst rudiments to the highest branches.
They are

slsting of First Lessons in Arithmetic, aud School

dre's Geometry and Trigonometry, Davies Sur

and Perspective and Davies Difiercntial and

These works form complete course Of matl-
ematical instruction. Each part is adapted to
the others, and the same principle and system IS
carried through all. The scholar advances from
one grade to another by connected steps, like

step assists to reach another, 1t is Of the high
