;WEALm-We doubt the policy Of eu-
logizing mere wealth. The natural self
ishness Of man will always secure crowds
Of worshippcrs at the shrine of Mammen.
In this material age. the danger is ths.
the greed for riches will become too inor-
dnate, if indeed it has not already become
sol and the wise will seek to discounte-
nahcs the deihcation Of wealth, rather
than urge it on. Too many already bow
d6wn to the golden calf The acquisition
Of money, as the great end of life, has be-
come popular to an extent that seriously
threatens the future integrity Of the peo-
ple.' If 1t has grown to be a general prao-
tice; especially in our great cities. to ask
what d iiian is Worth, not What are his
principles, his talents, his culture, or his
mode of life. The high aid, noble aims
which our fathers heldlup for US to initiate,
are rarely made subjects Of emulation
now. Our rspolitieallas well as social life,
begins to show the dangerous results oi
lowering the old standard. ald nil 9s~

A powerful magnet had attracted this
great mass 81 people from their homes in

and wonderful renovn, would thunder on

Morning broke in tile azure East, bright
Sad beautiful as a. dream, Of heaven; but
the expected prodigy had not made his ad.
vent. Eleven o'clock came-the regular
hour Of the heavy gun of orthodoxy7-and
still there was no news Of the clerical lion.
A common circuit preacher took his place,
and, sensible Of tbs popular disappoint-
ment, increased it by mouthing miserable
failure The vexed and restless crowd be-
gan to disperse. when an event happened,
to excite afresh their curiosity and concen-
trate them again denser than ever. A
messenger rushed to the pulpit in hot haste
and presented note, which was immed.
atsls read out, to prevent the people from
acattsfidg. The following is a literal copy
ofthat singular epistle: -s-a
DEAR BRErHREN: st
The devil has foundered my horse,
which will detain me from reaching your
tabernacle till evening. I might have per-
formed the Journey on foot; but could not
leave poor Paul, especially as he has new
er left Peter. Horses have no souls to
save, and, therefore. it is all the more the
duty Of Christians to.take care of their bod
les. Watch and pray. and don't let the
devil get among you on the sly before cam
