out the text awakened inquiry, and even
suspicion; and one prying churchman,
who had the means Of examination at
hand, discovered at home that the sermon
was Tillotson'sl In the afternoon the
incumbent, who had returned in the inter-

gave out his text, and, to the establishment

This statement, which we take from the Al
bany Argus, embraces the entire commercial
season. The difference i'm Wheat and Flour is
very great; the excess of Corn at New Orleans
is quite large. Still the increase Of Corn sent
by the Erie Canal is greater than the increase by
way Of the Mississippi. The former ran up
from 100000 bushels to 100000 in one year
at New Orleans, the receipts have remain
ed steady nearly at 500 900 bushels.
As soon as the Eastern railways are com
pletcd, there will be greater increase of trade
by these routes, and, perhaps, consequent
falling off, in many articles, in the Crescent
City The decrease in Tobacco is very great

The immense defect that want Of symPa
thy is, may be strikingly seen in the failure
Of the many attempts that have been in all
ages to construct the Christian character,
emitting sympathy. 1t has produced num-
bers OF people walking up and down
one narrow plank of sell-restraint, ponder
ing over their own merits and dement's,
keeping out, not the world exactly, but
their fellow creatures, from their hearts, and
caring only to drive their neighbors before
them on this plank Of theirs, or to push
them headlong. Thus with many virtues,

SIR n. Feel NJ the T..wsrsh sIsue s.ese.y.

r On "Wednesday, the annual meeting Of
the above Society was held at Tamworth.
AT twelve O'Clock, Sir Robert Peel accom-
panied by the vicar Of the parish, Mr.. Pye,
Rev. J. G. Miller, Birmingham, and seve-
raj other gentlemen, entered the room, and
took his seat as chairman of the meeting
Prayer was then offered up, after which Sir
Robert Peel said, have had the honor for
several years past Of filling the chief office
in connection with the Branch Bible Asso-
citation of this town, and which is connected
with the General Bible Society. When
accepted that office, considered the accep-
tation Of it implied careful consideration
of the arguments in favor Of the simple dis
tribution of the Scriptures; of the objections
thar were urged by some against that simple
distribution and acquiescence in the princi-
Piles Of the Society; and | arrived at the con-
viction that the advantages to be derived
from the simple distribution Of the Scrip
lures greatly preponderated over the objec-
tons that were urged against it. 1t is im-
possible TO look at the condition Of society
in this country without being convinced that
great and important changes have taken
place in many districts. By the spread of
manufactures many villages Of little impor-
lance, and scarcely known by name, have
become immense manufacturing towns, COM
prising thousands and tens of thousands OF
population, and it must be quite obvious that
the means of pastoral superintendent in
these districts are exceedingly limited in
proportion to the population, and | know no
mode in which we can so effectually aid the
exertions of those who are laboring night
and day in the performance Of their spiritu-
al duties than by giving them that assistance
which the Bible Society proposes to give, by
enabling them TO circulate amongst that
population the Divine Scriptures. There is
a great movement of the public mind rela-
tive to public education. All parties, Of
whatever creed or religious denomination,
are beginning to be convinced that there has
boo" upon the part Of all Of us a great de-
hclency IN that respect. We have permit
ted our religious differences to operate against
education, and it mas now become necessary
that that great object Of national education
shall be obtained by sacrifice on the part
of all Of us Of some Of those scruples which
have hitherto prevented it, Be the charac-
ter of that education what it may; whether
complete religious instruction constitutes a
part OF il; whether, to accommodate some,
the religious instruction may not be so com
plete; whether the instruction be complete
or deficient, believe me il is absolutely ne
cessary to provide for the distribution Of the
word Of God. If youths are educated with
a knowledge Of the word of God, it is neces.
sary that they should have access to it in at
ter life; and if they are not 50 educated, il
is the more incumbent upon us to provide
them in after life with the means of receiv
ing it. Whether the system Of public edu
cation be religious or not, the necessity o
giving access to the word of God remain:
the same.
