The Family Hearlh,SlOne.

How little do we think of the future destiny
of those who daily gather round our cheerful
hearth-stone that the time will come when those
who are now united by the most endearing ties,
who have drawn their sustenance from the same
beloved source, who have shared the same pill
low, and who have participated in each others
Joys and sorrows must be separated; and, alas!
how often estranged in heart and affections, each
following some favorite phantom, all eager to
obtain what seems to them to be the greatest
happiness independent of each other; and for
tunate are those, who in the combat of life, are
not arrayed against those of their own household
that such is too often the case we have only to
observe what is daily passing around us On
one side brother enjoying every luxury which
wealth can procure, on the other, theplaymate of
his YOUTH the sharer of his little cot, the brother
who kneIt at the same knee and lisped at the
same prayer, toiling on day after day, while the
rich man is squandering his thousands on some
object which may raise him to a still higher sta
ton than the one he now occupies, regardless of
the toll and suffering of him who is less FORUM
ate Why is it that we feel so little sympathy for
the poor and distressed-are we lacking in kind
ly feelings and generosity! Has the world so
crushed and destroyed all the earlier affections!
We trust not-for five look attentively at some
of the movements of the day, we shall see that
charity and brotherly love have not entirely de-
serted this world of ours-that amid all the sell
hshness that surrounds us, occasionally flower
springs up in the DESERT and the hearts of the
widow and orphan are made glad, and the down
troddcn and oppressed cheered by the voice of
kindness and love, and in the words of the poet
and philanthropist Cowper, we can say
"God, working ever on a social plan,
By various ties attaches man to man."

Honor the AGED,

"The hoary head is a crown of glory, If it be
found in the way of righteousness" Chou shalt
rise up before the hoary head, and honor the
face of the old man, and fear before the Lord
thy God" Such are the express precepts OF
Scripture So reasonable in itself, and so clear
ly commanded by God, is reverence from the
young to the aged, it may be fairly said that the
young person who fails in so obvious a duty is a
stranger to the fear of God, and destitute Of
those dispositions which alone can render youth
amiable, manhood virtuous, and old age honor
able.
A disposition in youth to give due honor tc
the aged, is one of the farest indications of gen.
era excellence of character; and particular
blessing is often seen to rest upon those who have
treated the aged with conscientious respect. Or
the other hand, the youth who can despse anc
ridicuIe the aged, gives sad evidence of gen
orally vicious and depraved disposition. He Of
ten becomes tyrant in his family, quarrelsom
neighbor, despiser of religion, perhaps mul
derer. And many instances are on record (be
sides that of the children of Bethel, who mocke
the prophet Elisha) in which divine diSpleasur
had evidently rested on those who refused tn
respect due to old age,

more dictatorla obstinate, jealous and tyranni-
cal, than the despotism of free, enlightened,
Christian Slavery Disguise it as you will, it
is monster Some very good deuded men,
land too once have apologized for it; but af-
ter all, it is, and was, and ever will be- sin COL
demned by God abhorred by saints and Stunned
by holy men. The circumstances of my family
seem to require that | should remain South,
though sometimes | almost resolve to leave this
region, for fear the smothered, heaving volcano
may break FORTH and bury in ruin this otherwise
lovely land. But there are some bright streaks
ofhope. The influences of religion are gaining
ground, and as they gain ground, masters treat
their servants better in dress, and grant them
more Christian privileges And this is not all;
owners begin to feel that slavery is a sin A few
wicked men, (savehoIders,) have said to me at
different times, that they did not see what bust
ness Christians had to come here and.buy plan
tations and negroes, intlmatng that there is, in
their estimation, glazing inconsistency between
religion and slavery. They justify themselves in
slavery, because they do not profess to obey the
Bible. They say man cannot do to others as
he would that they should do to him, and hold
slaves. But in them this is only one among all
their other sins Strange reasoning, but quite
as logical as the reasoning Of professors Of relr-
gon, in excusing and justlfying their continuance
in sin One thing is evident-the sin of slavery
is felt more and more. This should encourage
Christians to pray with fresh earnestness and
strength, that God may pour out upon us spirit
of iudgment-a spirit of burning, that that evil
may be speedily removed"

OniniOns Of Slavery at the South.

We have received letter from clergyman IN
one of the most remote and inaccessible OF the
slave States, whose well known name, if we were
permitted to publish it, would add weight and
impressiveness to what he says, which we cannot
deny ourselves the qualification Of presenting to
those who are waiting for the dawn Of right feel
ings and views on this subject OF the South That
there is an under-current of feeling at the South
such as this letter dscloses, is as UNREASONABLE
as it is cheering Waterman Of the Valley

forlorn hope of apoor disciple of Christ, in en-
deavoring to turn it from its current We may

little blind boy was asked what is forgiveness
He replied at is the odor that flowers breathe
when trampled upon" Did not this sweet youth,
to whom the world was dark who could never
more see the pleasant light of the sun, give the
true idea of forgiveness! 1t is not difficult to
feel kindly towards those that love you and con-
fer favors upon you. But to have store of good
wishes and kind deeds for those that abuse and
treat you ill--to be like the cinnamon tree that
sheds a sweet perfume around the axeman that
wounds it, this is hard! But it is what the meek
and lowly Jesus did, and what his true children
do. Here, then, little folks, is test to know if
you love Christ "Ifye love them" only "that
love you, what thank have he!' How do you
feel when your playmates treat you il Can you
return good for evil! Can you pray for those
that injure you! Ifso, you are "the children of
your Father which is in heaven who maketh his
sun to rise on the evil and on the good" Re-
member, now, that one way to manifest the spirit
of forgiveness is by kind words. missionary
in Jamaica was questioning the little black boys
on Matt 9Th, and asked, "Who are the meekl
A boy answered, "those who give soft answers
to rough question" This accords with what
Solomon says, "a soft answer turneth away
wrath, but grevious words stir up anger"
"rhen deem it not an idle thing,
A pleasant word TO speak;
The face you wear the thoughts you bring,
A heart may heal Or break"
