A NEGRos EXPLANATION OF THE DOCTRINE OF
PERsEvERANCE.-A piOus old negro, who lived ia
region where the people were in the habit Of
"getiirg religion" every time a new minister came
around, and then losing it again before the next
quarterly meeting, was once asked how be accoun-
ted for these facts in accordance with his belief in
the doctrue of the final salvation Of all true beeV-
ers. He replied, when people gifts religion
themselves, they is mighty apt to lose it about as
quick and as easy they got it, but when religion
gets them, it takes holt and holds on and never
lets EN- go until it takes EN- clean up to heaven
We suppose the old negro's explanation is the Bi-
bic solution of the difficulty Presbyterian Her

THOUGHT.

The power of thought has accomplished W 1nders.
1t has enabled the student to learn the languages
and solve the most abstruse mathematical prob
lens. 1t has taught the farmer the art of agricul
ture that he may adapt his seed to the SOIL that it
may produce bOuntifu harvest. 1t has taught
the mechanic the rules which govern physical sub
stances, that he may apply it to the best advantage
1t has taught the merchant the rates of exchange,
that he may make profit himself and benefit the
community at large. 1t has taught the lawyer
principles OF equity, by which mankind must by
governed 1t has called the lightning from the
skies. Such are some of the accomplishments Of
thought.
Thought, wrapt in the mystic mantle Of high Or
der, passes and repasses the fiery ordeal yet cannot
unfold to man its surprising oveliness in the lar
guage of the earth 1t is the life of the mind, the
ever-gushing fountain Of all sciences, and the per-
lection OF all art. 1t has been sheltered by the
winds of Heaven, and its embers shall glow when
all others are extinguished. 1t has plucked from
fames ETHEREAL bower the farest flowers, and
twined them IN wreath to crown the brow Of
Milton. 1t was his delight, under that sacred
blessing, thought, to write that admirable poem,
"Paradise LOST" it was his greatest conquest to
write paradise Reganed"

Discovery OF MS. SERMON BY LUTHER
Twelve autograph sermons of Luther have recently
been discovered at Raksan in Hungary. The Hun
garan paper DiUltesGrnOk says:-"How these SER
mons have found their way 10 Hungary is a ques-
ton still to be settled but sure TO be cleared up
by nearer perquistion Of the records in which tie
autographs were found. 1t is q we'll known fact,
that Luther for long time used to be in cores
pondence with several learned Hungarians, mostly
with Baron, Peter, Revay The MS is bound in
v,llum, and contains twelve sermons writing on
Thick brownish paper, in faded, though still very
legibIe black letters. The margin of the leaves
shows marks of having formerly been gilded. Each
separate sermon is signed with Luthers autograph
Signature: and all these signatures are so like TO
each other, that their being written with one hand
is beyond any doubt. This valuable discovery is
at presentin che hands of NJ Paul Raksanyi, whose
property they have become by Inheritance.

Thought teaches US that the grave is dark and
gloomy world. with no light to iliumine the night;
but better philosophy whispers to as that the
grave is not the end; that cloud of darkness may
gather round The closing scene, and the paleness of
death be our winding sheet. But brighter dawn
than ever was set rising the spirit and thought
links its fond immortality to the blessings Of Hea
Ven. Thought, looking down through the lapse Of
ages working with untring efforts beneath the de-
caying wreck of the past, breaking the silence ard
scattering the shades of dark oblivion b. holds
thought bounding into futurity. Thus the power
of thought has done much, and has pioch Y. to do
What it has done are real triumpls. What it may
do will be done; for, with the immortal soul, what
ever is possible is certain. Without thought. the
world of mind would be as day without the sun, or
as a dark night without the moon or stars Iris

SIGNAL FOR SILEYCE.-Byron tells us, that when

ed with them, than to bring entertainment to them,
A man thus disposed, perhaps may not bave much
earning, nor any wit, but if he has common sense
and something friendly in his behavior, it conci-
ates mems minds more than the brightest parts
without this disposition; and when man of such a
turn comes to old age he is almost sure to be treat
ed with respect. 1t is true, indeed, that we should
not dissemble when in company but man may
be very agreeable, strictly consistent with truth
aud sincerity, by prudent silence where he can
not concur, and pleasing assent where he can
Now and then you meet with person so exactly
formed to please, that he will gain upon every one
that hears or beholds him; this disposition is not
merely the gift of nature but frequently the effect
of much knowledge of the world, and command
over the passions.

Poole.


A monument is to be erected to Poole, and
fund is to be raised for the benefit OF his
family. The Boston atlas, in an article on the
"apotheosis Of blackguardism," says:
"We did think, when this miserable affair
occurred, when some of the scoundrel parties
were shot, and some of them compelled to fly
from the city, that New York might consider
herself well rid of nuisance more noxious
than the garbage in her streets or the stencil
of her slaughter-house. But the turn which
the affair has taken, will make matters worse
and worse. Where she had one bully before,
she will have twenty now. Pugilism and the
pistol, shoulder hitting, gouging, and n,aiming,
have been elevated into the heroic. The
young lad, who reads the Herald or the En-
press, will learn that to be a bully is to be a
public character; that vice will bring fame
seldom, alas accorded to virtue; that he will
be wept for if he falls fighting, and duly re-
ported if he lives to fight again.. He will dis.
cover that brawny muscle is better than brains,
that grog-shops, cock-pits, and hells are the
proper theatres for manly action, and that
society saves its sympathy for defunct boxers
and departed assassins. New York to day is
full of sucking Pooles and juvenile Morrissys,
whose future exploits will certainly crowd the
columns of future newspapers"
