The following brief and beautiful passage
occurs in an article in Frazier's Magazine:
''Education does not commence with the
alphabet. 1t begins with a mothers look
with a fathers nod of appreciation, or a sigh
of reproof-with IA sisters gentle pressure of
the hand, or a brothers. noble act of forbear-
with handfuls of flowers, in green daisy
meadows-wilh birds nests admired but not
touched-with creeping ants, and almost i'm
perceptible emmels-with %humming bees and
glass bee-hives-with pleasant walks-and
with thoughts directed in sweet and kindly
tones and words TO nature, to beauty, TO acts
of benevolence, TO deeds of virtue, and to the
source Of all good, TO God himself.

Effects of Kindness.

l am almost convinced that there never yet
was an instance in which kindness has been
fairly exercised, but that it has subdued the
enmity opposed to it. Its first effort may not
succeed any more than one shower Of rain can
reclaim the burning desert; but let it repea-
teddy shed the dew Of lis holy influence up
on the revengeful soul, and it will soon be-
come beautiful with every flower of tender
ness. Let any person put the question to
his soul, whether under any circumstances,
he can deliberately resist continued kind
nessl And a voice Of affection will answer,
that good is omnipotent in overcoming evil.
Ii the angry and revengeiul person could on
ly govern his passions, and light the lamp of
affection in his heart, that it might stream
out in his features and actions, he would soon
discover a wide difference in his communion
with the world. The gentle would nc lon
ger avoid him friends would not approach
him with a frown; the weak would no lon
ger shrink from him with fear; he would
find that his kindness wins all by its smile,
giving them confidence, and securing their
friendship.

vaiions and perils, men of christian principle
are the most efficient and reliable men. |
Will refer you TO two examples Capt. Frank
lin, with his company, in his overland eXpe-
dltlon to the Polar Sea, encountering as great
hardships as ever men 81 ffered and survived.
The perseverance and preservation of the Eng
lish is ascribed by him and by DIR. Richard
son, the surveyor of the Company, to the in
fiuence of religious exercises, which buoyed
up their hopes and animated their exertions,
while TO the want of these elevaiing princi-
pies, they ascribe the fact, that the Canadi-
ans, although more accustomed to the rigors
OF the climate, almost TO IA man yielded to de-
spondency, and sunk victims TO the hardships
which they endured. Captain Parry's testi-
mony, 10 the same point, is so brief and
pointed, that | will give it to you in his w
words:
g am convinced that true religion is so far
from being a hindrance to the arduous duties
of the seaman. that, on the contrary, it will
always excite him TO their performance from
the highest and most powerful motives. The
very best seamen on hoard the Hecla-such |
mean as were always called upon in any ca
SEES of extraordinary emergency-were, iCifh-
ont exception, those who had thought the most
seriously on religious subjects; and if a still
more scrupuIous selection were made out OF
that number, the choice fell, ,cithOut hesitd-
iion, on two or three individuals possessing
dispositions and sentiments EMINENTLY CHRIS
TIAN."
| commend TO you, then, my friends, the
principles of peace. And | commend to you
the prince of Peace" the gracious Savior
of whom | have spoken so much to you in
this discourse. Trust in him with a living
faith, and live soberly, rightecusly and godly.
May He be with you, TO preserve and guard
and guide you. Make Him your peace-ma-
ker with God, and let His pacific spirit reign
in your hearts. Again, l say, may lie be
with you.

Notes on Morocco. The Arab and his
Horse

The principle involved in the following
anecdote is not new, but it shows the diff
culties to be commended with in Morocco, by
a gentleman in search of a horse.
1t is not always that the Arab is ready to
part with his horse, if a good beast, whatever
price may be offered though money among
the degraded people of Morocco will work
miracles. A circumstance which proved
this occurred to me about four years ago,
when accompanying poor John Davidson
some few days journey into the interior.
Us we were proceeding between Mehedeca
and Rabat, we were Joined by a troop Of
mounted Arabs, one of whom was on d mot
tied grey, the handsomesI barb ! ever saw.
Riding up 10 the man, | entered into con-
versation with him and having put him in
good humor by %praising his steed. | told him
| would make him rich if lie would sell me
the notified grey.
What is your price? = said the Arab.
] offered him a hundred and fifty mitsdkel,
about twenty pounds sterling; a large sum in
the interior.
1t is a good price, said the Arab but
look,' said he-and he brought his horse on
the other side Of me-'look at this side of
him. you must offer more.'
We'll, come ! said, you are a poor man
and fond Of your horse we won't disagree
about the matter, so give me your hand
What say you ? two hundred 2
That is "A large price, truly said the A.
rab, his eyes glistening; and l thought his
horse was mine. But my eagerness, / sup
pose, had been too apparent; so the Arab
thought | might 90 still further; and shak-
ing the bride, off he went at full speed
The mottled grey curled his tail in the air,
and vanished to IA speck in no time. | turn
ed to speak to Davidson, and the next mo-
ment the Arab was at my side; and, patting
the neck Of the grey, he said, Look at him
-see-not a hair Is turned What will you
give me nowP
Davidson prompted me 10 offer even four
hundred ducats rather than let the animal 90.
Again | began bargaining and offered three
hundred. On this, the Arab gave me his
hand, and, thanking me said; Christian,
now can boast Of The price you have Offered,
hut it is vain that you seek 10 tempt me, for
| would not sell my horse for all the gold
you or any other man possesses Having
said this, he joined his companions.
Calling the kaid or chief of onr escort, |
asked him if he knew the rider of the gray
adding, that | supposed he must be rich, as
he had refused so large a SUN. The kaid
said, 'All know is, he is a great fool. for he
possesses nothing in the world but that horse,
which he bought when a colt, selling his
tent, flocks, and even his wife, 10 buy it,

A Thought over a Cradle.
BY N. p. WILLIS.

I sadden when thou smilest to my smile,
Child of my love! l tremble TO believe
That DER the mirror of that eye Of blue
The shadow of my heart will always pass
A heart that, from its struggle with The world,
Comes nightly to thy guarded cradle home,
And, careless of the staining dust it brings,
Asks for its idol! Strange, that flowers Of
earth
Are visited by every air that stirs,
And drink in sweetness only, while the child
That shuts within its breast a bloom for
Heaven,
May take a blfmish from the breath of love,
And bear the blight forever.
/ have wept
With gladness at the gift of this far child!
My life is bound up in her! But, oh God
Thou know'st how heavily my heart at times
Bears its sweet burden; and if Thou hast
given
To nurture such as mine this s~potless flower,
To bring it unpolluted unto Thee,
luke Thou lis lore, ] pray theei Give it
light
Though, following the sun, it turn from me!
But, by the chord. thus wrung, and by the
light
Shining about her, draw me to my child,
And linL US close oh God ! when near 10
