that thousands suffer years, diseased both

PREACHIEG THE GOSPEL.

DR.. Sprague tells the following anec-
dote of an Evangelical clergyman OF the
English Church named Jones. The sto-
ry was given him by Rev. Geo. Burder.
Mr.. Jones had a college elassmate,
who entered the ministry at the same
time with himself, but he was more a
man of the world, and knew little and
cared nothing, about the true gospel
This man conversing one day with Mr..
Jones, said to him half jocosely, half-se
riously, "Why is it that you are so pop
ular as a preacher, and so few come 10
hear me, when everybody knows that at
the University was considered greatly
your superior" ''WhY," said Mr..
Jones, "'the reason is that l preach the
Gospel" 1.-THE Gospel" said the 9TH
er, $50 do almost every text preach
upon is from Mathew, Mark, Luke, or
-.Iohn." Said Mr.. Jones, "You may do
that and yet never preach Jesus Christ"
''Well," said the other, ''lend me one of
of your sermons and see what effect it
will have" He actually did lend him
one, and he preached it as he had en-
gagged TO do: and as he was coming out
the Church at the close Of the service,
he was accosted by a man, who, in list
ening to the borrowed discourse, had
been thrown into state of anxiety in re-
spect to his salvation. Says the minis
ter, somewhat confused by the strange
result of his preaching, "Wait. wait
say nothing about it til. the people have
all gone out" After the congregation
had retired, the anxious inquirer began
further to explain himself when the cler.
gyman interrupted him by saying
But what is the matter with you? 1
see no occasion for your making yourself
unhappy" "Matter, replied he why
your preaching has made me feel like a
condemned criminal, and fear there is
no mercy for me +"
"Well. really" said the minister, 81
am very sorry that have wounded your
feelings-I had no intent on of doing it !;
but since you have got into this uncom'
Portable state, advise You to go and see

THE BLOOM OF AGE.

A good woman never grows old
Years may pass over her head, but II
benevolence and virtue dwell in her
Eeart, she is as cheerful as when the
spIing of life first opened to her view
When we look upon good woman we
never think of heI age; she looks as
charming as when the rose Of youth first
blsSomed OH her cheek. That rose has
not faded yet; it will never fade. In
her neighborhood she is the friend and
benefactor. Who does not respect anal
love the woman who has passed her days
in acts of kindness and mercy We
repeat, such a woman cannot grow old.
She will always be fresh and bucyant in
spirits, and active in humble deeds Of
mercy and benevoleDce. If the young
lady desires 10 retain the bloom and
beauty of youth, let her not yield 10 the
sway OF fashion and folly; let her love
trnth and virtue, and to the close of life
she will retain those feelings which now
make life appear garden of sweets
ever fresh and ever new.

We have on our table catalogue of
this f1ourishing institution. 1t is located
on the high and beautiful grounds north
west of Cincinnati, and about six miles
distant from it. Under the energetic
supervision of President l. ]. Allen, as
sisted by large and able corps of pro.
fessors, 1t has rapidly increased the num-
Der of IFS students, and now ranks among
the largest and best patroDized colleges
of Ohio. 1t has 3O3 students on its list
OF names. The course of study is thor
ough and comprehensive. The Farmers
department is the distinguishing feature
of the school. A large and magnificent
farm has been purchased, adjacent to the
college halls, where the theory as well
as the practice of scientific farming are
taught. We have heard this institution
mentioned with much favor by many per-
sons. The high character of DIR. Allen
will not fail to sustain its reputation. The
first session will commence on the 9TH of
September.-Stdte journal.
