RECENT FROM CHISA.-Rev. T.. W. Lyle, Of
the Protestant Episcopal mission, (says the
Messenger accompanied DIR. Lockh art ned
ical missionary from the London Society in one
Of the frequent excursions which he and DIR.
Medhurst are accustomed to make for distribn-
ting tracts and books through the surrounding
country" They proceeded by boat about
twenty five miles, when = walk Of five miles
brought them TO Chingpoo. Here, Mr.. Lyle
says, ''we distributed great numbers Of tracts;
finding il difficult to pass through the streets
with sufficient rapdity to prevent being borne
down by the crowd that followed US. Our
books were received with great civility. nay,
with IN appearance Of courtesy which afforded
striking illustration of the general attention
paid to the cultivation Of good msnners-"
"In connection with the subject Of Tract dis
tribution," he ADDS, 81 may here mention what
arc our plans for this purpose. On the lth Of
May, Mr.. Graham and myself met the Bishop
Boone in his study, and in view Of the fact,
that this whole city presented field too large
for profitable cultivation by so small a number
rs ours, it was determined that each of Us should
devote himself to a certain district, and endeavor
TO follow up, by personal visits, the distribution
from house to house of carefully selected Tracts
The next step would be to form catechetical
classes, and hold small meetings, and finally to
build Church and hold regular public services

WHAr PLEASURE 1T Is TO PAY ONE S

Lyttleton make the same observation. 1t
seems to flow from a combination Of cir
cumstances, each Of which is productive Of
pleasure. In the first place, it removes
that uneasiness which true spirit feels from
dependence and obligation. 1t affords
pleasure to the creditor, and therefore graft
fies our social affection. 1t promotes that

We take pleasure in presenting our readers
with the following excellent remarks from the
New-York Farmer and Mechanic. on the !" Dig
nifty and pleasure Of Agriculture. ."--"There is a
moral dignity in The pursui, Of agriculture
True it is toilsome; but what gainful pursui, is
not! There are few merchants or professional
men who would not at times willingly exchange
their burdens, their cares or anxie,ies, for fol-
lowing the plough or other labor connected with
fatmng. fhe young man who fances there is
so much Of leisure and aristocracy in trade and
the professions, and so much drudgery in farm
ing, knows less of human life than lie will or
likely learn if he lives 10 middle-age. But,
while the laborng people Gsaally attain greater
longevity Than men Of leisure. their exercise
may be considered al conducive TO health, and
hence 10 happiness. LII labor itself there is
nothing degrading to the best feelings Of our
nature. 1t is only viliated artificial public SEN
,imen'. that can induce painful sensibility in
view Of The necessity for industry, which The
wants of life impose.
l. is not the object thrown around the farmer,
the woods and streams, the fields arrayed in
green, that make all the charms Of his life for,
while he subdues the soil and fits i, for his pur-
poses, and sca,ters The seed on tho furrows, the
progress Of vegetation and the ample harves,
are in his mind !; as the reflection q, night that
the day has been devoted to usefulness, pre-
pafes him for peaceful rest. Then there is a
practical Independence enjoyed in the feelings
Of the farmer when he gathers the golden bar
vest, and pariakes Of the frui. of bis labor.
"He eats his own lamb, his own chickens and ham
He sheers his own fleece and he wears it,"
Agriculture has in all ages been esteemed

praise, and The creates, statesmen Of the Roman
