LIE TRULY CHRISTIAN ALWAYS CONSERVATIVE.
1t Is really cheering, refreshing as cool water in
the desert, says the National neligenccr of the 4h
inst amid the constant reports Of political recreancy
among christians and christian ministers to read such
testimony as that below in reference to such body
OF men The great heart of the religious in our land
beats with the same throh and its impulses are noble
Sectaran lines are becoming oberated, as that Con-
vention showed and Il christian of any name loves
to recognize the true spirit wherever seen. Our pco-
pie are TO their very hearts core pious nation and
their leaders cannot to any great extent be of DIFF
fercnt spirit:
Tie PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL GENERAL CoNyES-
TlON.-A correspondent Of the Providence Journal,
writing of the recent deliberations of this body in
Philadelphia, says:
'For three weeks lacking one day this Convention
sat the largest body ever convened in onr ecclesias.
tical council. And yet at this time, when there is
abroad such party spirit, spirit of faction; when
questions OF the most exciting nature have aetatcd
the land; when brother has risen against brother and
father and son have been at variance when there
came to this Convention persons from the North and
the South from the East and the West there has
been throughout all the discussions spirit of kind
ness, Of brotherly love, delightful to Witness What

4 LITTLE BORIS PRAYER.-A little boy after saying
nightly the prayers which had been taught him, was
quite tenacious Of what he called praying his own
way. He had large number of brothers and sis
tiers, whose needs and peculiarities he sometimes
made the subject of his petitions. On one occasion,
at commencing this exercise, he was overcome with
sleep Wrestling with his stupor, he said:
"Oh Lord,.bless Elizabeth, and make her better
than she is.''
His head fell back his pillow, but soon rousing,
he mnrmnred, drowsy, " Bless Henry, too 1t was
in vain; the tongue refused its otficc-so he added
indistinctly:
"Oh, Lord can't, there are many of en- and
he sank into the deep slumber of childhood
At another time, while conducting this exercise in
a somewhat more waleiul manner, he said:
''Lord, please to bless father, and give him new
heart Be so kind as to bless Mary my little sister,
and give her new heart. Oh Lord, bless mother,
