A GLORIOUS LIBERTY BY CuR1sr.-We think
it is an easy matter to believe; but it is not
Indeed it is easy to presume; but for the soul,
in time of temptation and in the hour of death,
for the guilty soul to 60 out itself, and cast itself
upon the mercy of God, and to believe that the
obedience of Christ is mine as verify as if I had
obeyed myself-there must be strong sane
titled Judgement, and mighty power to raise
the soul, to cast itself so upon Gods mercy in
Christ.-This faith does. Faith is said to save
us; yet it is Christ that saves u.s. This faith frees
from the guilt of sin, because my sins were laid
upon Christ. His death was the death ola sure
ty; thus come to be free in justification. Again
there is freedom in sanctifcation that is, when
a man believes that Christ is his he receives the
Spirit that works an alteration in his nature.
The obedience of Christ frees from the condem-
nation of sin, and the spirit of sancti6cation
frees from the dominion of sin. From Christ, as
my head, 7 derive the Holy Spirit to sanctify my
nature-Rr. r. Sibbs.

TIE OLD TURNPKE.

: We hear no rnore-of the changing hoof
And the stage coach rafting by;
s For the steam king rules the travelled world,
And the old Pixies left to die.
Fhe grass creeps DER the finty path,
And the stealthy daises steal,
Y Where the stage-horse, day by day,
Lifted his iron heel.
( No more the weary stager breads
The toll of the coming morn;
Z; No more the bustling landlord runs
At the sound ofthe echoing horn:
For the dust lies still upon the road,
And bright-eyed children play
Where once thelclattering hoof and wheel
Rattled along the way.
! 20 more we hear the cracking whip,
= 1ror the strong wheels rumbling sound;
8 And ahi the water drives us on,
And an non horse is found!
1 The coach stands rusting in the yard,
And the horse bas sought the plough;
$ We have spanned the world with an iron rail,
And the steam-king rules US now!
s The old turnpike is pike no more,
Wide open stands the gate;
We have made US road for our horse to stride,
Which we ride at flying rate.
We have filed the valleys and leveled the hills,
And tunneed the mountain side;
And round the rough crag's dizzy verge,
Fearlessly now We ride
On--on- on-with naughty front!
A puff, shrek, aud bound;
{ W, w. z s-ttfffs tardy echoes wake too late,
TO babble back tne sound,
And the old pike road is left S!one, So
And the stagers seek the plough;
We have circled the earth with an iron rail,
And the steam-king rules US now!

THE JERUSALEM ABovE.-Itis is in heaven
Gods peculiar dwelling place And being
above and heavenly, it partakes of the nature Of
heavenly things. Its unity is the unity of the (
spirit. The bond which holds all its children to-
gether in the membership of faith, is the bond
of peace. They are all brethren, dwelling harz
monious!y in the light of Gods countenance and
in his quckeniug presence ana ii2nine to asGriba.
glory ara nonor ana MAJESTY AID power to Him
that sitteth upon the throne and to the Lamb
forever and ever.
Being above and heavenly and spiritual, it is
also everlasting. Its foundation stone is the
promise of the spirit. Built upon that founda-
ton, the changes and adversities by which all
things human and earthly are overturned and
made to pass away, cannot affect it. 1t stands
safely upon the Rock of Ages The offspring
of grace, by grace it is perpetually preserved.
Oft, the heavenly city, David declared in spir-
ii, "If forget thee, o Jerusalem, let my right
hand forget her cunning If do not remem-
Der thee let my tongue ceave to the roof of my
mouth; If prefer not Jerusalem above my
chief JOY"
1t is also free. There the Lord who is spirit is
ever present and where the spirit Of the Lord is,
there is Liberty. 1t is free from all sin and death
free to righteousness and life; and without fear,
is made perfect in love. The freedom it enjoys
is that which flows from security from all dias-.

blessed favor of God affords, where there is stno
more death, neither sorrow nor crying neither

WHEN SOME WRONG OR ENvYs sTEE
ETfJS1

PING.
When the beart, with the strong endeavor,
Puts away unkindly feeling,
Trusting il again may never
Come, its bitter fruits revealing
When it chasteneth its longing
Unto that the pure might see,
And desires unbidden, thronging,
Spurns aside if wrong they be.
When il ceases to do evil,
And is striving to do well,
Oh, how hard that faint primeval
Urges, presses to rebel;
When some wrong of envy's sleeping,
Rudely, with envenomed sting,
Wakes those passions that were sleeping,
Under penitentlal wing,
And demands the stern denial
Which forbids them to give way
In this hour of hardest trial.
Hard the spirit to obey!
When some stroke of malice, blinded,
Unexpected, makes us bleed,
Motto hate the evil-ninded
Who hath darkly done the deed.
8 Hate, that guest that ever paineth
While it fingers in the breast,
And no ray of comfort gaineth
To the spirits wounded rest;
Yet will come against our willing,
We may force it hence again.
And the radiance oflove streaming
Back again into the breast,
Like some starlighfs peaceful cleaning
From its high Sc rene ofrest;
Z Fillingzdp oar soursr With giadpess,
s-StTonger in each victory won
Over Envy's ptied madness,
And the evil it hath done!
