For Parents and Children.

Mr.. Toller. of Kettering, was celebra-
ted for the power of illustrating his SUBJ
ject; and his illustrations were frequently
drawn from the most familiar scenes OF
life.a An example of this will afford the
reader some idea of the manner in which
he availed himself Of images derived from
the domestic circle. His text was Isaiah

that he may make peace with me, and he
shall make peace with me-" i think said

sage SO that every one may understand it,

committed fault. for which | thought il
my duty to chastise him. Il called him 10
me. explained to him the evil of what he
had done, and told him how grieve9 ] was
that must punish him for it,; he heard me
in silence. and then rushed into my arms,
and hurst into tears. glscould sooner have

The Great Achievements Of Life.

The highest achievement OF moral phi
Iosophy. is to rise above the cares, vexa-
tons, and disappointments OF life; and
the tendency Of religion, resting upon a
divine basis. buoys the true Christian
above the evils that surround him, and in
spires him with moral fortitude and vigor
to battle every calamity, and to maintain
an unruffled spirit amid the pillows and
conflicting currents which agitate the
ocean, OF human existence. If the hur-
ricane RACES, instead Of yielding TO its fu-
~, and giving way to dependency. he
exerts every energy to. ward off danger,
and strives to look forward, indulging a
soothing hope that the future will be less
disastrous than the present. This method
of encountering the evils to which every
body to greater or less degree is exposed,
deprives disappointment of its sting. is an
antidote to the poison OF SANDER. and be.
gets spirit OF cheeriulness which is essen
tial to happiness. He is like the Eagle,
| which, when clouds overspread the earth.
rises above them, to enjoy the sunshine.
No matter in his pecuniary. domestic, and
social relations-if he suffers his spirit to
be discomposed by trifing annoyances. he
is stranger to enjoyment, and every day
OF his life is embittered by some petty
cause of vexation. which his own morbid
disposition magniies into a, serious calam.
| iiy.. On the other hand, overwhelming
must be the misfortune, which can pros
trate man that has been disciplined to
patient endurance, and habituated himself
to uniform cheerfulness OF mind.
