TRUE FREEDoM.-He is freeman whose
social condition is in no respect inferior to
the claims of his moral nature and his intel
lect. He is no slave, no matter what his con-
dition, when that condition continues to i'm
prove IN Intellectual and moral respects He
alone is the slave who is denied the position
which is essential to the exercise of his pro-
per faculties, and the fit development of his
natural powers. He cannot but be tyrant
whom society has lifted into a condition su-
perior to his capacities. .-Egeria.

A SITUATIoN.-Two young officers were
travelling in the far west, when they
stopped to take supper at small roadside
tavern, kept by avery rough Yankee woman
The landlady, in calico sun-bonnet and bare
feet, stood at the head of the table to pour
out. She inquired Of her guests eff they
chose long-sweetening in their coffee" The
first officer supposing that mong sweetening
meant large portion of that article, chose
it accordingly. What was his dismay when
he saw their hostess dip her finger deep
down in an earthen jar of honey that stood
near her, and then stir it (the fnger,) around
in the coffee. His companion, seeing this,
preferred short-sweetening." Upon which
the woman picked up large lump of maple
sugar that lay in brown paper on the floor
beside her, and biting off piece, put it into
his cup. Both the gentlemen dispensed with
coffee that evening.

COUNSEL VS., EXAMPLE need to follow
Solomon's counsel rather than his example,
and look upon the prevalence of knowledge,
Industry, frugality, and justice as of more
value than enormous fortunes in the few, or
passion for show and luxury in the many.
We should bless our fathers for their noble
course in guarding against dangerous opu-
lence by equalizing the inheritance of chill
dren, and throwing open to all the institu-
tions of education, which provide for general
prosperity better than any agrarian law

QUITE A RoMANCE.-The Alta California
has the following:
A young woman was married, on Friday
week, and, after the knot had been tied, some
of her friends, who were not pleased with the
match, procured writ of habeas corpus, sta
ting that she was Illegally detained, and went
with an officer to take the bride from the arms
and possession of the husband He howev-
er, promised that he would not remain in that
house where she was during the night, and
that in the morning she might be brought
into Court on the writ, and the matter legal
ly arranged. The arrangement appearing
satisfactory, the pursuing party left, and the
husband, having strict regard for his word,
and as strict one for his martial rights, re-
moved his bride to other quarters, having, as
he promised to do, left the house, but taking
her with him upon which point she had made
no promise. Next morning the bride was
brought before magistrate on the writ and.
upon proof Of the facts, was permitted to
depart in peace, leaning on her husbands
arm.

WHOLESALE BUSINESS. Almost every body

year than two or ten divines in the United
States 1t beats all how many men and wo-
men the old fellow ''ties up" and causes to
trot in double-harness through life. Not long
since, a rural district youth and his Psyche
came to Father Streeter, to be fixed out ac-
cording to the law and gospel. Well, the old
gentleman put 'em through in the regular
manner, and-charged.
"How much have to pay for this job? says
the wly-manufactured husband, drawing

"Oh, WELL" said the old gentleman, ~ al

feels, he pays"
'Well, I don't want to be mean, Mr.. Stree

PREACHING FOR THE SIMPLE & THE LEARN
Ed remember ST. Gregory, in handling
one text processes that he will endeavor to
handle it so that the weakest understanding

highest understanding not be weary to hear
ordinary doctrines so delivered Indeed, it
is good art to deliver deep points in holy
plainness and plain points in holy delight
