We ask careful perusal of an article in
another column from the Charleston Mer-

is in vain to conceal the fact that this pro-
ject is to be pressed upon the country, by the
advocates of slavery. 1t must be met in

peal of the Missouri restriction. Mr. Slidell,
a senator from Louisiana, moved resolu-

our African squadron from that coast, so as
to offer no impediment from the United
States for the prose of that trade. The
article from the Mercury, is carefully and
ably written, and shadows forth settled
design on the part Of the disunionists, and

THE MILLENIAL SABBATH.

The Rev. DIR. Cumming, the learned
theelogian and brilliant writer, delineates
most beautifully the glories of millenial
Sabbath. 1t will be found below. 1t is
worthy to be written in letters of gold and
set in diamonds:
at will be day of lasting rest
When the night that is far spent is COM
pletely exhausted, and the day shall be
fully come, then there shall be perfect
rest. The earth shall have its Sabbath,
which it lost by our sin. Man shall have
his, in its integrity, and purity and
beauty. God rested on the seventh day
from all his work, and Hallowed the
Sabbath, and blessed it. I believe
there is not beast in the field, nov
fish in the sea, nor fowl in the
air, that has not right to the Sabbath,
and that shall not yet have Sabbath Of
rest. There is not a laborer in the work
shop, nor a toiling man in the post ofice,
nor a clerk in the counting house, that
may not claim the Sabbath. Next to
God s word, Gods Sabbath is the right
and privileges Of Man. Infdelity inn
pugnS and denounces both: by Gods
grace we will part with neither. And
when that last Sabbath comes-the Sab
bath of all creation-the heart. wearied
with Its tumultuous beating, shall have
rest; the soul, fevered with its anxieres,
shall enjoy peace. The sun of that Sab
bath will never set, or veil his splendors
in sloud. The flowers that grow in
lnS light will never fade. Our earthly
SabbathS are but feint reflections of the
heavenly Sabbath, cast down upon the
Garth, dimmed by the transit of their
rays from SO great height and so dis.
tant world. The fairest landscapes,
or combinations of scenery on earth, are
but the outskirts of the paradise of God,
fore-earncst and intimations of that which
lies beyond them; and the happiest Sab
bath heart, whose every pulse is Sabbath
bell, hears but very inadequate echo of
the chimes and harmOnics Of that Sab
bath, that rest, where we ''rest not day
and night" in which the song is ever
new, and yet ever sung.

FASHIONABLE RELIGION

Why should not religion be fashona.

teristicS of a well-bred man. Is there
anything, which our Father requires O
us calculated to lower us in the estima
ton of others ! to unfit us for the duties
or the pleasures Of life z May we not
enjoy His gifts all the more, if we observe
His laws? Think of this, my young
friend.
We are to despise the world. But

sealing our eyes against the revelations
of his love! No, indeed. Next to over.

earthly parents are to give good gifts t.
their children /!
What he requires of us, therefore, i:
neither to Ouervalue. nor to nadervalu,
the world. If we undervalue it, we dis
honor him-if we overvalue it, ourselves
But he would have us value it Alright.
We are to let it 60 for all it is worth
and no more. If we do this, however
much we may prize it, we shall no
grieve, nor offend our most mercifu
Father; nor be the more unwilling to ex
change the world and all its glories ant

better. Having just idea of the wortl

Charles looked, and saw half dozen

unconcealed delight along the sparkling
sands and thus rebuked his compan-
ion:
