Dip IDU EVER SEE AN Owl =
A young man who had seen but little

bashful Nithal-invitcd a young lady
to attend ball with him. She was
the belle and beauty Of the place into
which he had recently emerged from
the bushes; and if he was SURF riscl

swain called for his partner in a

VERY True True religion is not
4 matter of mere feeling and strong E.
motion, but matter of judgment, and
conscience, and practical principle. -
You must rccollect that the minds of
men are variously constituted us re-
CARDS susceptibility of emotion. Some
persons are possessed of far livclicr
feelings than others, and are far more
easily moved we see this in the COM
mon subjects Of life as well as in reli-
gion. One man feels as truly the af-
lection of love for his wife and children
as another whose love is more vehe-
mcnt, though he may not fondle and
carcss, and talk of them so much lie
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
all others, to labor for them, to make
sacrifices for thcii comfort, and really
10 gricvc when they are removed. Ills
love and grief arc as sincere and prac-
!ical, though they are not boisterous,
passionate and noisy; his principles of
sitachment is as strong, II his passion
he not so ardent. Passion depends on
constitutional temperament. bit princ-
pie does not. Mere emotion, therefore,
whether in religious or other matters, is
no test Of the genuineness of affection.

CONGRESS ADJOURNED.

The 4Ih Of March has passed, and
We feel sure that many will rejoice in
the fact that with it has passed the last
of Congress. A more Improbable ses-
sion was probably never held since the
formation of the government. Less
work has been done, and less satisfac-
ton given than in any previous session I;
and the good and evil done becomes
the country's Inheritance
Among the m ore important acts Of
the past session may be mentioned The
cheap postage bill-in precisely what
shape we do not learn--the Civil and
Diplomatic Army and Navy bills--tlc
Post Office appropriation biIl--the bill
settling private land claims in Califor-
nia-resolution rendering public shin
