liEALTH OF CmLDREN.-Rising early is
habit Of high importance to fix in chill
dren aud m forming it, there is far great
er facility than ia other cases. There is a
natural propensity in children generally TO
early rising, which needs only 10 be graft
fed and encouraged They usually retire TO
bed some hours before their parents. and at
daylight, or at least sunrise. are generally
awake, aud anxious to rise. Many of them
are actually bred up with difficulty 10 the
habit Of taking morning maps, which, when
once formed, generally prevails through life.
Let the father deny himself go far as 10 re-
tire early, and become an early riser also.
His health, enjoyment, and usefulness. he
may depend upon il, will be perceptibly
benefited Aud this may be connected with
another preventive Of disease-actiye en-
ployment. The morning is the season for
activity; the frame, invigorated by repose,.
is prepared for exerion, and motion gives
pleasure. The pure atmosphere, so much
more bracing than at other hours, SO much
swee,er ond more sxhiiarnting than tho dir
Of confined chamber, has been prepared
to be breathed and, like all natures medi-
cines, il is superior to any which science
can produce Early rising and early exer~
else might more properly be called food
than medicine, as they are designed for
daily use, and TO protect us from disease
rather than to remove it. Everything. ex-
cept mere sloth, invites US, nay, REQUIRES Of
US, TO train up our children TO use them.
The morning is The most favorable season
for exercising the frame, as well as for maxi
ing useful impressions on the mind and
heart; nnd whoever tries to conduct the
education OF his child independently Of this
practice, will lose some of the most favora-
Bile opportunities.

ity lay. They were compelled 10 own
that the ignorant multitude had judged more
correctly than the learned and that the des.
pissed little book was really masterpiece.
Bunyan is indeed as decidedly the first of
allegorisls, as Demosihenes is the first Of
orators, or Shakespeare the first Of drama
lists. Other allegorists have shown equal
ingenuity, but no other alegorist has ever
been able TO touch the heart, and 10 make
distractions objects Of terror, Of pity and
OF love.
II may be doubted whether any English
Dissenter had suffered so severely under the
penal law as John Bunyan or the lwen-
ty.seven years which had elapsed since the
Restoration, he had passed twelve in con-
6nemeni He still persisted in preaching
but, that he might preach, be was under the
necessity Of Disgusting himself like carter.
He was often introduced into meetings
through back doors, with smock.frock on
his back aud whip in his hand II he had
thought only Of lis own ease and safety, he
would have hailed the indulgence with de.
light. lie was now, al length free 10 pray
and exhort in open day. His congregation
rapidly increased thousands hung upon his
words and at Bedford, where lie origin
ally resided, money was plentifuily contrib
uted TO build a Westinghouse for him.
His influence among the common people
was such thai the government would viii
lingly have bestowed on him some munich
pal Office but his vigorous understanding
and his stout English heart were proof
against all decisions and all temptations
He felt assured ihu, the profiered federation
was merely a bait intended 10 lure the Pu-
ritan party TO destruction; nor would he,
by accepting place for which he was not
legally qualified, recognize the validity OF
the dispensing power, One OF the last acts
OF his viriuous life was to decline an inter-
view to which he was invited by an agent
Of the government.

This prince received from nature excel
lent parts and happy temper. His education
had been such as might have been expected
TO develope his understanding, and to form
him TO the practice of every public and pri-
vate virtue. He had passed through all
varieties Of fortune, and had seen both sides
OF human nature. He had, while very
young, been driven forth from palace TO
life OF exile, penury and danger He
had, al the age when the mind and The body
are in their highest perfection. and when
the first effervescence Of boyish passions
should have snk-;i-i - ~"
-. nusrings TO wear a crown. lie had
been taught by bitter experience how much
baseness, perhdy. and ingraiitude may lie bid
under the obsequious demeanour Of court
iers. He had found, on the other hand. in
the huis Of the poorest, true nobility of soul.
When wealth was offered to any who would
be,ray him when death was denounced
against all who should shelter him, coilagers
and serving men had kept his secret truly,
and had kissed his hand under his mean
DISCUSSES with as much reverence as If he
had been seated on his ancestral throne
From such school it nigh, have been ex-
pected that young man who wanted neiIh-
er abilities nor amiable qualities would have
come forth great and good king. Charles
came forth from that school with social
habits, with polite aud engaging manners,
and with some talent for lively conversation.
Addicted beyond measure 10 sensual indul-
gence fond OF sauniering and Of frivolous
amusemen,s; incapable of selfdenial and
Of exertion; without faith in human virtue,
mr. in hnn Il rl
renown, and without sensibil,y to reproach.
According to him, every person was 10 BE-
bought
Thinking thus OF mankind, Charles nat.
urally cared very lil,le what they thought Of
him. Honour and shame were scarcely
more to him than light and darkness 10 the
blind His contempt of fiaiiery has been
highly commended. hut seems, when viewed
in connection with the rest Of his character

10 be below laiiery as well as above it.
! One who trusts nobody will not trust syco
phunis One who does not value real glory
will not value its counterfeit.
II is credilabie TO Charless temper that
i'll as he thought Of his species, he neve
became a misanthrope. He saw little il
man bu. what was hateful. Yet he did no
hate them. Nav, he was so far humane tina

VIRTUE OF ABsTINENcE.-A corespon-
dent of the Philadelphia Inquirer mentions
curious fact illustrative of the virtue Of
fasting. He says that in visiting the Zoolo-
gica Gardens in London--a place spoken
OF by every American traveller with admira-
,ion-upon inquiry as to the mode and
times of feeding the animals, he was much
struck by the information. which to him at
least was new. that no animal in the coll
lection received any food on the Sabbath
day, although on other days they were all
fed once, and some Of them three times.
Do you omit TO feed them for the conyen-
fence of the keepers, or for the benefit of
the animals was the question. For the
sake Of the animals. was the answer. Abb
slinence one day in seven, was proved to
be conducive, if not necessary, TO their
health.

JOHN BuNYAN.

To the names of Baxter and Howe must
be added the name Of man far below them
in station and in acquired knowledge, but
in virtue their equal, and in genius their
superior, John Bunyan. Bunyan had been
bred a tinker, and had served as a private
soldier in the Parliamentary army. Early
in his life he had been fearfully tortured
by remorse for his youthful sins, the worst
OF which seems, however, 10 have been such
as the world thinks venal. His keen SEN
sibilty and bis powerful Imagination made
his internal conflict singularly terrible. He
fancied that he was under sentence Of
Reproduction, that he had committed blasphe-
my against the Holy Ghost, that he had sold
Christ, that he was actually possessed by a
demon. Sometimes iends whispered i'm
pious suggestions in his ear. He saw WIS.,
ions Of distant mountain tops, on which the
sun shone brightly, but from which he was
separated by waste of snow. He felt the
devil behind him pulling bis clothes. He
thought that the brand of Cain had been set
upon him. He feared that he was about to
burst asunder like Judas. His mental
agony disordered his health One day he
shook like a man in the palsy. On another
day he felt FIRE within his breast. II is
difficult TO understand how he survived suf-
Gerings SO intense and so long continued.
At length the clouds broke. From the
depth Of despair, the penitent passed 10. a
state of serene felicity. An irresistible im-
pulse now urged him TO impart to others
the blessings Of which he was himself pos.
sessed. He joined the Baptists, and be.
) came preacher and writer. His education
had been that Of mechanic. He knew nc
! language but the English, as it was spoken
by the common people. He had studied nc
great model Of composition, with the excep
ton, an important exception undoubtedly
) Of our noble translation Of the Bible. Hi:
: spelling was bad. He frequently trans
crossed the rules OF grammar. Yet the
I native force Of genius, and his experiments
D knowledge of all the religious passions, from
. despair TO ecstasy. amply supplied in him the
S want Of learning. His rude oratory reused
, and melted hearers who listened without

Wet FEEr.-In endeavoring to preserve
health there is no subject Of more inpor-
lance than that of keeping the feet dry.
Wet feet affect the whole system, even the
head. The feet may be cold, almost TO
freezing, without injury; but damp, and
more especially wet feet, for one who is not
in constant exercise, have most destructive
effect on health and as person values this
inesiimable blessing, he should cautiously
guard against any thing TINT is liable TO des-
troy il.
Those who are exposed to water and mud,
SO common at this season, should be proyid-
ed with stout and tight boots and shoes,
and they should be frequently stuffed with
some waterproof composition. Some per.
sons use meats foot oil, others castor oil.
Tar mixed with oil or taIlow is good, but Il
has an unpleasant smell. Linseed oil is also
used. A simple and convenient prepara-
ton, which we generally use, with excel
lent success, is one part Of beeswex and
two paris Of beef's tallow.
