PRAYER.-The following beautiful paragraph
is from Jeremy Taylor Prayer is the peace of
our spirits, the stiffness ofour thoughts, the even-
ness of recollection, the seat Of meditation, the
rest of our cares, and the calm of our tempest.
Prayer is the issue Of quiet mind, and of un-
troubled thoughts. 1t is the daughter of chart
ty, and the sister ofmeekness; and he that prays
to God with an angry spirit is like him that re-
tires into battle to mediate, and sets up his
closet in the out quarters of an army, and choos-
es frontier garrison to be wise in"

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION SETTLED.
Col. Fuller, Of the New York Mir
roy, says: I'm a company with several
ladies, we called on Miss Fox, the
spirit medium, yesterday. After the
ladies had satisfied themselves in in
terviews with the spirits of their grand
mothers. we were invited to call some
spirits from the Vastly deep Upon
the spur Of the moment we asked if
the spirit Of Gen. Taylor was present.
Three rough and ready thumps, far
more vigorous and emphatic than any
we had heard, answered in the aflirma-
tive. We then asked: Are you still
convinced that the Mirror was the
FIRST to nominate you for the Presiden-
cy?' Three laundering raps quickly
followed and, without tho proof the
fact which our files afford us, we may
now consider the question ctcrnally
settled. Let the Herald put this in
it, pipe and smoke it."
Col Fuller, the Miss Foxes, the
spirits Of their Grandmothers, the
Mirror, and the Herald, arc separately
and collectively wrong. T. B. Thorpe,
author, artist and Editor, is the man to
whom credit is due. Thorpe publish.
