Very True

True religion is not a matter of mere
feeling and strong emotion, but matter of
judgement, and conscience, and practical
principle. You must recollect that the
minds Of men are variously constituted as
regards susceptibility of emotion. Some
persons are possessed of far livelicr feeling
than others and are far more easily moved
we see this in the common subject of life
as well as in religion. One man feels as
truly the affection Of love for his wife and
children as another whose love is more ve-
hement though he may not fondle, caress
and talk of them so much; he may not
even suffer those paroxysms Of alarm when
anything ails them, nor of frantic grief
when they are taken from him; but he
loves them so as to pre- fer them TO all others,
to labor for them, to make sacrifice for
their comfort and really to grieve when
they are removed. His love and grief are
as sincere and practical, though they are
not boisterOus, passionate, and noisy; his
principle of attachment is as strong, if his
passion be not so ardent. Passion de-
pends on constitutional temperament. but
principle does not. Mere emotion, there
fore, whether in religion or other matters,
is no test of the genuineness of affection.

Serenading a Young Lady.

In my young days was extravagant-
ly fond of attending parties, and was some
what celebrated for playing the flute;
hence it was generally expected, when an
invitation was extended, that my flute
would accompany me. | visited a splcn-
did party one evening, and was called up
on to favor the company with tune on
the flute. |, of course, Immediately COM
piled with the request. The company
appeared to be delighted, but more par
ticularly SO, was young lady, who raised
her hands and exclaimed thatit was beauti-
full, delightful, &C., |, of course, was
highly flaiteEed, and Immediately formed
a resolution 10 serenade the young lady
on the following night. Previous to leaving
the party, | made inquiry respecting her
residence. / started the next night in
company with several young friends and
arrived, as | supposed, at the lady's resi-
dence, but made most glorious mistake,
by getting under the window of an old
Quaker. Now, boys, says |, behold
the sentimentality of this young lady, the
moment strike up the Last Rose of Sum-
mer.' struck up, but the window re-
mained closed. The boys smiled. oh
said |, that is nothing, it would not be in
good taste TO raise the window, on the first
air | next struck up Old Robin Gray.
Still the window remained closed. The
boys sniekered, and | felt somewhat fiat
'Once more, boys said l, land she
must come | struck up again-My Love
is like the Red Red Rose. Still there was
no demonstration. Boys said /, she's
humbug. Let US sing Home, Sweet
Home, and if that don't bring her, we will
give her up We struck up, and as we
finished the last line, the window was
raised. That's the ticket boys said | :;
Il knew we could fetch her. But instead
of the beautiful young lady, ii turned out
to be the old Quaker in his night cap and
dressng-gown. Friend said he, thee
was singing of thy home-I think thee
said thy sweet home-and if | recolect
right thee said there was no place like
home; now, if there is no place like home,
why don't thee 90 to thy home Thee
is not wanted here-thee nor any of thy
party Farewell We and our hats went
home.

INTERESTING ExPERIMENT.-In the Ros-
cream workhouse, Ireland, the learned doc
tor in charge has appropriated one of the
wards TO the exclusive use of deaf and
dumb nurse, who has charge of four in
fant children. They are TO be isolated
from companionship with all who have
the gift of speech, until they have attained
the age when children usually acquire a
knowledge and use of language. The OBJ
ject is to acquire the natural language Of
man. This experiment, if thoroughly
tried, will probably show that man has no
natural language. 1t will be remembered
that the PhPnicians once made some
what similar experiment with an infant,
which was placed in the desert in the
charge of persons sworn not to permit the
utterance of a word in its presence, and to
afford it sustenance by allowing it to suckle
a goat. In that instance the first attempt
of the child at vocaization resulted in the
imitation of the bleating of it's foster
mother.-N. ]. Times.

4 Foul SLANDER.--Old GuZZle, of
Hornby, was a great drinker Of cider-an
excessive cider-bibber. He would drink
more of the stuff than any two men In
town, and vet was desirous of being
thought temperate. He would denOunce
the rum drinkers in round terms, and preach
about the wickedness and folly Of toddy-
drinking by the hour; but would knock
man down who dared To insinuate that he
was as Incorporate as any in the excessive
use Of his favorite beverage. One day 1t
came to his ears that all old soaker in town
had circulated the story that he consumed
a barrel of cider in a week, and straitway
his anger was kindled.
1t was vile slander, and as he finished
a quart of the hardest cider, he vowed by
the empty mug to make the slanderer re-
tract his aspersion. Guzzle sought the
traducer, and found him just where he
thought he should, in the village bar-room,
surrounded by dozen of his confederates.
HALO cried GuzzIe, as he saw his vii
lifier, whats this story you've been telling
about me, you tippling vagabond" " The
lelloW lOokeu aFouuu upon his aS@oeia'eo'
and then asked what he was accused OF.
Why replied Guzzle, you have been
telling that | drank barrel of cider a
week IT'S darned lie,' said Tipple, i
never said sol never said you drank a
barrel of cider week. well what did
you say demanded Guzzle, angrily.-
Why replied the loafer, Il said you
drank h0ckSit.' MIR. Guzzle frowned
upon the laughing crowd, and went home
to his cideral reflections.
