Lands which formerly produced from 8

on corn, tobacco, and many other arti-
eles, its effects are equally wonderful.

the venerable clockmaker, Of Boston,
when on a visit at the White House, in
Madison's administration, where he was

quite as remarkable in his own way as
the Chief Magistrate himself. Mr.. Madi-

Anscdots of Univsrsalism. IT

Anecd0te Of UniverSalism. - The
term Universalism 10 applied. in this coun.
try, to that system OF soi dismf Chris.
tianily, which teaches that all lspsed in
telligences shall be finally restored to the
moral eemblance and favor of God. In
America, the name is usually understood
70 signify the code Of doctrine which de.
nies the reality Of a personal devil, and Of
future punishment. The following oc-
curence, which actually took place,
shows the system in no favorable point
OF view:
A Christian gentleman, one Colonel
Richardson, was in boa. along with two
Universalists, on the Niagara river, some
distance above the Falls OF Niagara. The
Universalis,s began to rally The Colonel
on his beliefof future punishment, and ex.
pressed their establishment that man OF
his powers of mind should be so far mis-
led as 10 believe this horrid dogma. The
Colonel defended his opinion, and the re-
suit was controversy, which was carried
on so long and earnestly that, when they,
after some time, looked around, they found
now that the boat was hurrying with great
rapidity towards the Falls! The Uni.
versalists at once dropped the oars and
began to cry to God to have mercy on
them. Richardson laid hold Of the oars,
exerted all his strength, and by Gods
mercy pulled ashore. When they land.

dies the first thing of which he is con-
scious. is being in heaven. Now I want
to know why you were so terribly fright
ened when you thought in FIVE minutes
more you'd be over the Falls into glory?'
The Universalists were silent for some
time; st length one of them scratching
his head, said, I'll tell you what, Colo.
