GHOST SToRY.-Last Tuesday fortnight,
as Mrs. -, Ia lady of literary taste and rather
studious habits,) sat reading in her drawing
room, the clock the mantlepiece struck
twelve; and as the last stroke reverberated
through the apartments, the door was suddenly
flung open. In the act of raising her head to
reprove the intrusions (unrung for) of her SER
wants, her eye rested on the form of her de-
ceased husband sense of sutfocating oppres-
sion deprived her of all power to scream aloud.
She says her very blood retreated with icy chill
ness to her heart from every vein. The coun-
tenance of her beloved in life wore not its be-
nevolent aspect; the eyes, once beaming with
affection, were now fixed in stern regard on the
trembling, half dissolved being, who, with the
courage of desperation, thus adjured him
:" Charles! dear Charles why are you come
again p "Jessie," slowly and solemnly aspi-
rated the shadowy form, waving in his hand u
small roll of writ-papers, Jessie, pay nty mecS-
paper accounts, aad let me rest IN peace r.

SHORT SERMONS. IV.-RE

SHORT SERMONS. IV.-RELIGIoUs BELIEF
Men have not sufficient charity for strong
religious belief. They fight religious error with
the arm of flesh, instead Of the omnipotence OF
the spirit. We had as well attempt to put out
fire by throwing on fuel, as restore the pro-
gress Of q false religion by the arm of reason
alone Many things in the true faith are above
reason, though doubtless not at all against it,
and can only be believed by the "thus sayeth
the Lord" Most men believe many things they
do not understand and the more mysterious
the tenet the irmer the belief 1t is important
to distinguish between those truths in the cog
nizance of reason and those ADORE it. The Jews
evidently believed Jesus Christ an imposter
The followers of Mahomet certainly believe him
to be prophet. The Hindoo believes in his
faith most implicitly. Various orthodox de-
nominations believe in conflicting doctrines.
Error by long credit assumes the shape of truth,
and the implicit believer never stops to examine
into it. Like deep-seated diseases, erroneous
opinions become part of the mind itself, and the
moral treatment of this mental disease is more
difficult than physical diseases; and, after we
do all we can, the Great Physician alone can
heal. Nothing can stay the progress of error
but the faithful exhibition of the truth, and by
pre-occupying the minds Of youth with the
truth. Mere noisy augmentation and abuse
and ridicule make the matter worse. The de-
luded votary will cling but the closer to his
idol, and he is perfectly sincere. Treat him,
then, as one blind from his birth !" respect
his feelings Do not question his sincerity, but
show him truth itself, and it may be he, of him.

A VERY GOOD HUsBAND.--When a lady admits
that her husband is good one, we take it for
granted that he is particularly good And when

him down as a paragon of spouse, though
there was nothing in the gentleman's face or
Inquire to make one suspect that he was "much
better than the average" a'E
DO you say you have no complaint to make
against your husband, Mrs. NJ 2"
Not a bit of complaint I'll be making against
Jenny, your honor. It's nate, decent lad he
is, as ever an honest woman need be combined

of yours was beating you last night"
"Oh, it might have been a trfe of that, and
sure a little beating, now and then, will not do
woman great deal of harm when she's used
to it, yer honor"
You are used to it, Mrs. McKessic 2"
"Indeed, not twenty four hours goes over
me head without taste of it. But it's only the
drink, and not the devil, that makes Jenny
switch me little with the broom-stick or some
other utensil. It's a very good husband he is,
your worship" ~... .aM. Ia.
g 1t seems he gets tipsy, and beats you at
every twenty four hours"
"You see how consarned he looks about it.
your worship It's the sweetest temper he has
that iver you laid your eyes on and when he
has got all the dhrink he nades, he's as quiet as
a lambkin. Surely, if batting me bit, for ex-
ercise jist, will do him any good, he's welcome
entirely" anr aaar
"But its a disturbance of the public peace,
Mrs McKessic. Your cries last night alarmed
that neighborhood."
"Ah, did it, thin 1t was very naughty of
me to make noise of such a trife, and I'll
very willingly abide with the punishment. But
Jemmy's quite innocent, your worship. Not
haporth of noise did he make-you couldn't
have heard the lick he gave me to the next
house, I'll be bound Didn't he fog me nice
and aisy, with bit of rope, not taking his
stick for fear of incommoding the neighbors?
Sorrow better husband any woman need to
have than Jenny McKessic."
So earnestly did Mrs NJ. intercede for Jem-
my, that she obtained his discharge, and we
hope, for the credit of manhood that her kind
ness touched his heart, sufficient at least to save
her from one Of her daily castgations.
