gle for, becomes a withering curse to
them and their children. Like the ap-
pie Of the Dead Sea, fair to look upon
but turning to ashes in the grasp, are
wealth and honors, unaccompanied by
integrity and good habits. Yet we see
about us every day, parents struggling
to get rich, and for that end neglect
their children, scarce knowing how or
where their time is spent, laying in their
young minds 10 foundation of usefulness
for the future. They accomplish their
work, they reach their aim, they get
rich. But their sons and daughters,
what Of them d? The wealth of thu
fathers ruin the children. And still We
toll on, denying ourselves, neglccting
duty, forgotful of the best good Of those
We love, through our struggle to gather
up for them, that which "takcth to itself
wings and fleeth away"
'Tis too much the way Of the world.

~ The anxiously looked for Memoir
of DIR. Judson is now ready for the mar
ket. But the following article from the
Macedonian, explains its partial delay
!" The publication of this important
work has been delayed to the 9th of
September, so as to secure the copyright
in England, where it must be published
before it is issued in this country. The
American publishers have so promptly
fulfilled their engagements, however,
that the first edition Of Il, 900 is in fact
now printed; but the orders already
received absorb it, and the second edition
will probably be off the press before a
copy Of the first can be offered for sale
The two volumes will contain 1866
pages, beautifully executed, and with an
almost faultless portrait ; and, from a
somewhat careful reading of the sheets
we do not know how the same number
of pages could have presented more
truthful and complete delineation of the
life, labors, opinions and character of a
remarkable man moving in so many
scenes and living through so many years.
Well informed readers will of course
