"I HAVE COME TO TALK ABOUT MY SOUL"

One day, as we were were just rising
from the dinner-table, a young man knocked
at the door. He had lived but few months
in the town, and my acquaintance with him
was very slight indeed. believe we had
never spoken together but once, when was
making pastoral visit to the family in
which he boarded. The thing that most
struck me then was his extreme difidence.
! was not aware that any particular i'm
preston had been made on his mind. Hence,
it did not occur to me that his call, especi-
ally at such an hour, was connected with
the state of his feelings on the subject of
religion.
Judge then Of my surprise, as he took his
seat by the fire in the midst Of my family,
and looking up said, "I hare come to talk
vah you aJou! my soul ~ The words thrill
ed'through my heart. Such a remark, from
a modest retiring youth who had never en-
tered our door before, could not but awaken
tender emotion. For few moments hard.
" knew what to say. Soon, however, |
found utterance, and in few simple senten
ces gave him such direction as seemed suited
to his circumstances. 1t was a word in
season. God had evidently been moving
upon the mind Of the diffident young man,
and he was in short time led to the knowl-
edge Of the truth as it is in Jesus. Years
have since passed away, but no one has had
reason to doubt that this was genuine con-
version.
Is there no reader of these lines who
nsight be benefited by such an interview with
his pastor! You can imagine what it cost
retiring timid youth to bring his mind to
make a visit like this. But had he not done
SO, it might have proved fatal resistance Of
the Holy Ghost. The direction is, "Seek
the Lord while he may be found; call upon
him. while he is near" And ministers are
appointed to guide souls to the Saviour
The young man that takes such a step, is
using means which God may bless to his
spiritual and eternal good. PASTOR.

TREATMENT OF HORSES WHEN HEATED.
How Llest the farmers simple life,
How pure the joy it yields!
Far from the worlds tempestiious strife,
Free 'nid the scented felds.-EyERETT.

Men and horses remarks the New Eng.
land Farmer, are the only animals that
sweat. So say the medical men, whose
business it is to investigate the wonderful
living mechanism of both. The OK cools
off by accelerated respiration; if heated in
the furrow, he partially opens his mouth,
drops his tongue, and by rapid respiration,
or breathing, throws of the excess of heat
which has accumulated in the system. The
dog which runs at the side of the carriage
through the immense hest of n July sun,
dashes into the cold spring with impunity,
and returns refreshed, having no perspiration
to check, &c when men or horses, submerged
in similar manner, would suddenly check
perspraton and it they survived the shock,
it would be but to die with acute or chronic
Inflammation" In violent motion, the pcrs-
piration of both men and horses is increased,
but not sufficiently so as to carry Oft the
heat that is generated; they perspire through
the skin the pores OF which become opened
or enlarged and it is while in this condition
that both are exceedingly liable to be injnr-
ed. and when great care is necessary to
preserve the health Of either.
We saw a noble looking animal the other
day, standing by the road side, wet with
perspration, dotted with foam and appa-
ren,ly highly heated. There he stood, un.
checked by rein or halter, faithfully waiting
his masters return The cold was intense;
the mercury being below zero! lmpatiently
he paved the ice under his feet, champed
the bit and wildly flung his head from side
to side, while his lips were contracted and
nostrils collapsed, giving him fierce and
unnatural appearance. No blanket covered
his wet and heated body, while the keen
morning air froze stiff the moist long hairs
that stood out from tho skin. HU was svi:
IDENTIFY suffering severely. And this is no
uncommon sight So little is known of the
physiology and functions of the horse, that
the man who would refuse an extravagant
price for favorite animal suffers him to
stand in the condition we have described.
If the horse escaped an attack Of collie or
violent Inflammation in some shape, it was
his good fortune, and not from amy wisdom
or humanity on the part Of his owner.
Even in mild weather, though it may be
summer, mon or horses should not remain
quiet in cold draft, when heated and wet
with perspiration. Millions of the colds
complained of would be prevented, by ob.
serving this simple rule, and thousands Of
valuable lives preserved which are now an
nually extiuguished.
But you, who value the noble animal
which you control, when you rein up" for
business or pleasure, let the mantle come
over your stecd in the shape of blanket
Depend upon it, you will find it cheaper
than physic, travelling on foot or drawing
your carts yourself.
