DEATH OF THE OLDEST METHODIST
PREACHER IN THE WoRLD.-The N. Y.
Christian Advocate contains the following:
=" Rev. George Highfeld, Of the British
Wesleyan Conference, the oldest Metho-
dist preacher in the world, closed his
Heightened pilgrimage near Liverpool, on
the 9Th Of December. He was called
into the ministry by Mr.. Wesley, in 1885,
and continued to travel till 1925, when
the state of his health compelled him to
become supernume,ary; but he still la
bored in the pulpit and on pastoral duty
until his strength entirely failed. During
the last four years infirmaties grew rap-
idly upon him +; his memory failed so that
secular things were nearly obliterated
from it, but he could always recall por-
tons Of Scripture and hymns which had
long been treasured there. The forenoon
of the day before he died, he spent alone,
and was unusually happy. He was
ninety-one years old, and had been in the
ministry sixty-seven years.

The Universal says the city of Mexico
appears to be the theatre Of multiplied
crimes. No less than sixteen assassina-
tions have been committed in eight days,
and robberies are momentary occurrences.
The editors attribute much Of this to the
scandalous impunity with which such
things can be done, as exemplifed in the
recent pardon Of the murderers of DR..
Beistegul.

WOMAN AND HoME.-We clip the fol-
lowing from an exchange without know
ing its origin: "Heaven never intended
women TO be the inmates of boarding
houses. They are out of their element
in all such abiding places. There are er-
ratio exceptions to the general rule, but
the true spere of a really womanly wo-
man is her own home-her true mis-.
sion TO make her husband and children
happy. Her heart, more than her head,
'marshals her the way that she should
CO. Her affections, her wifely and moth.i
erly love, instruct her intellect, sharpen
her perceptions, and give force, energy
and precision to her plans and purposes.
Such woman prateth not ller sex's
rights-mourneth not over its wrongs
She attends no conventions, covets not
the double-barre!led garment, demands
not seat on the bench, post in the
state, or vote through the ballot-box.--
Content with The position assigned to wo-
man by the Almighty at the creation, and
which the prophets, patriarchs, apostles,
and the Saviour himself, have declared to
be meet and seemly for the weaker ves-
SELL the good wife never attempts to
overstep the limits of her appropriate
sphere, but makes that sphere charmed
circle, within which the husband and
father disburdened OF his business cares,
may enjoy a fulness of placid happiness
which the outside world can neither give
nor take away. Fortunate is he who
has such woman to wife; for she shall
not only smooth the roughness OF his
earthly journey, but lead him gently by
the hand towards Heaven

This Territory possesses what should
be the first consideration, and is of the
most vital importance to the settler, that
is perfect healthy climate, this is un-
queslionably owing TO the atmosphere be-
ing entirely free from that damp chilling
moisture, so common to these latitudes
that are subject to those sudden transit
tions from heat to cold, it lies between
the 43d and 49th degree of north latitude,
willie Ireland lies between the 5Oth and
55lh degree Of north latitude, but al
though Ireland is the more northern Of
the two, yet Minnesota is considerably
colder in winter.
This Territory is at present "terra
incognita,' to almost all except the wide
awake enterprising Yankees who are
within the last year directing there ener-
gies TO it, and the immense resources of
which they would have developed long
ere this, if their minds had not been pre-
occupied with the California mania. The
Territory of Minnesota is bounded on the
north by Canada West, on the east by
Lake Superior. Wisconsin, St. Croix and
Mississippi river, on the south by the
parallel of 43 degrees 80 minutes, and
on the west by Missouri and White Earth
rivers. Minnesota is the Sioux name Of
Saint Peters river, and is composed of
two Sioux words, mime, which signifies
water. and sofa, signifying turbid it en-
braces an area Of one hundred and sixty
six thousand square miles, or 46 thou
sand square miles larger than Great Brit
ain and Ireland, the population of which,
according to the last census is 27 l-2
millions, while the population of Minneso-
to, according to the official return of the
census taken by order Of the American
Government, in June, 1849, was four
thousand, seven hundred and eighty, so
you see there is ample room for emigra-
tion to it. To the farmer this Territory
presents innumerable advantages first,
he has inexhaustible land capable Of pro-
ducing, in the greatest abundance, the
usual agricultural productions of Ireland,
viz: Barley, Oats, Wheat, Rye, Potatoes,
Hay, &c., as we'll as all the fruits and
vegetables Of our gardens. According to
the analysis Of Doctor Owen, the soil de.
