Slow GROWTH OF CHARACTER.-A mature
Christian character is not an instantaneous Gre
alton, but growth,-a development. First
the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn
in the ear" As the mind has to be cultivated,
60 the character must be perfected, by degrees.
Indeed, as perfect character is the noblest
thing under the sun, it is the longest in matur-
ing. Even death does not finish the work
Then the spirit is freed from sin. But the high
er Development of character will 60 on with
the expansion of the mind through eternity
We cannot then become perfect in day. Le-
viathan is not SO tanned man who has been
accustomed through all his life to act from sell
fish calculations, does not begin at once to act
from motives purely good and religious. Nor ii
Christian perfection mere raphsody of the
mind, to be attained by an act of contemplation
We need something more than wings of faith, ,ol
of imagination, to bear us to the summit of tina
mount The Celestial City is on the top of {
hill, and we must go up on foot We mus
,cak the heavenly road. We cannot fly. Stel
by step, picking stones out of the way, an
singing as we go, must we climb the mount

ASA AND IRA.

Asa and Ira were two brothers, whose farms
lay side by side in fertile intervale.
When the corn, the oats and the barley were
springing up, the weeds took advantage of the
rich soil and came up with them.
DO you Sec, said Asa, what hold the
weeds are taking! There is danger Of their
choking out the crops entirely
well, we'll, we must be resigned replied
Ira weeds as well as grain are part of the
Creators plan, and there is no use in murmur-
ing about them
And he laid down for his usual afternoon
doze.
Il can only be resigned to what can't help,
said Asa. So he went to work and plowed and
hoed until his fields were clear of weeds.
The army worms are in the neighborh0Od
said Asa to Ira one day.
They have eaten through the adjoining mead
ows and are moving towards u.s.
.Ah,' exclaimed Ira, they willsurely destro,,
what the weeds have not choked out. | viii
Immediately retire to pray that their cours
may be stopped or turned aside
But Asa replied, l pray betimes every morn
ing, for strength to do the work Of the day.
And he hastened to dig trench round hi
land which the army worms could not pass
while Ira returned only in season to save sma
portion of his crops from their ravages.
DO you see, Ira said Asa, another morr
ing, the river is rising very fast. There is bu
slender chance of preventing our farms fro'
being overfowed.'
ALAS it is a Judgment upon US for our sin

How can you weave it! There is long web

By this time the sound OF the sheen made me
quicken my steps towards the yard. request

my brother, and secured white sheep, from

my sister. Luther ran of for black sheep,
and held her, whild cut off wool for nv filling

hours from the commencement, without help

try; | was assisting poor mother; was pre-
pairing garment for my darling brother. The
garment being finished, retired and wept till
my overcharged and bursting heart was reliev-

This brother, perhaps, was one of General
otark's best soldiers and with such a spirit
to cope with, need we wonder that Burgoyne
did not execute his threat of marching through,
the heart Of America!

From the Litchfeld Republ
GENERAL ISRAEL PUTNAM.

Nothing connected with the General Assem-
bly, of 1854 has given greater pleasure than the
approximation of $4,000 for the erection OF a
monument to commemorate the sereices OF Put
NAM. The speech of John Cotton Smith, in ia
vor of the resolution, is one Of the most beautl-
full tributes that has ever been paid to the mcm-
ory of that great man, anu is worthy OF &C.
seeudant OF the last Governor under the Char
ter. 1t carries us back to the =" glorious fore
time " of the Republic.
"It is pleasant sometimes to vary the duli
routine of legislation by the introduction OF
subject that scars high above the party strltes
and petty interests of the present, and carri
us back to the heroic age of the Republic
There is no State in tn, Union, and know not
any iu the world says the American Gibbon,
in speaking of Connecticut III whose history,
if were u citizen, could find more OF which
to be proud and less that could wish to blot
1t is matter of congratulation that her annals
are soon to be given to the world, written by
one Oh Her bdleubeu Sono, "uooo oooi 10 i"ii VI
her glorious foretme, and who has devoted years
of toll to his labor of love- Most true, it is,
that ever since God first planted the three vines
in the wilderness, in every combat for either lib
erty or honor, her sacred standard has waved IN
triumph, in front Of tho battle. or been drench'
ed with the blood of the brave. From the storm
ing of the Pequod fort to the captre of Mexico
no desperate foe has lived that ever stayed fol
the onset of Connecticut valor. Three times
had the gallant little Republic, while yet in th'
cradle, dared to provoke the wrath and brave th'
power OF the mighty moparch of England, anH
as often has the dagger Of tyranny broken th'
breast of her undaunted resolution Unlike he
sister colonies, no stamps were ever sold wlthil
her borders. She threw. them back with scor'
into the face of king and parliament. Our Stat

.As Arm as the rock Of the ocean that braves

"In April, ITS, before the revolution coui

and what can we do! !" cried Ira, throwing him
self in despair upon the ground.
There are no judgments so severe as those
which our own sloth brings upon u.s. replied
Asa.
And he went quickly and hired workmen, with
whose help he raised an embankmegt that with
stood the food, while Ira witnessed with blank
looks the destruction of his harvest.
There is one consolation, said no, my chill
dren, at least, are left me-
But while Asa's sons grew up strong and vir-
tuous men, among lra's there was drunkard,
gambler, and suicide.
The ways of the Lord are not equal, COM
planned Ira to his brother. Why.are you al
ways prospered, while am afflicted, and my old
age dissraeed ,=se
Il only know this replied Asa, that Heav-
en has always helped me to treat the faults of
my children as did the weeds, the caterpilars
and the food and that have never presumed
to send petition upward without making Toll

prayer. Lucy Larcom

TWILIGHT.

For the '6feen Mountain Freeman
TWILIGHT.
How sweet it is at close Of day,
When we retire from care,
And in some calm scquestered spot,
Seek meditation there.
Though down beneath the western sky
Has sunk the orb Of day,
Yet there are scenes Of joy complete,
That in the twilight play,
The flowers have folded up their leaves,
The birds have ceased to sing,
And quietude and stiffness calm,
A peaceful pleasure bring.
Our thoughts with natures charms unite,
And sweet md bright will be,
As all the tolls of earth depart,
And cares unbldden fee.
In this repose what soul can think
This earth dreary spot
1t is a soul-inspirins scene,
With joy and pleasure fraught.
Can man, the noblest work Of God,
AT this thought-stirring hour,
Forget his Maker while alone
And seated in this bower!
All, no his thoughts with His unite,
And briug him joy and peace;
And all unite in harmony,
Ills pleasure to increase.
Astwilight shadows there increase,
Within this sylvan strand,
The quietude and peace sublime,
Our happines expand.
The church choir on Sabbath morn,
With tn ir sweet harmony,
Will stir up feelings in my breast
OF sweetest melody.
The tuneful Tyre and sounding harp,
Touched by minstrelsy,
Excite sensations in my heart
or sweetest harmony.
But twilight strikes a sweeter chord,
Ali deep within my heart,
And vibrates through my very soul,
And sweetest joys impart.
