HI Lozp's PRAYER.

How many millions and millions OF times
has that prayer been preferred by Christians of
all denominations! So wide, indeed, is the
sound thereof gone forth, and daily, and almo {
without intermission, from the ends of the
earth, and afar off upon the sea; 1t is ascending
to heaven like incense and a pure Offering
Nor needs it the gift Of prophecy to ~foretell,
that though sheaven and earth shall pass away
these words Of the blessed Lord shall not pas.
away, till every petition in it has been an
swered-till the kingdom Of God shall come,
and his will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

THE NIEE2IE; AND EFFECTS OF ISTEN'
pERANCE.

The following is the most graphic dellnea-
ton of the miseries and effects OF lntempes-
ance that we have ever seen. II is ON the
arguments advanced by certain citizens OF PoF-
tage county. Ohio, ina memorial to TIE Legs
lature on the subject:
Sand vet its march Of ruin is onward still
II reache. abroad to others, invades the fami-
" and social circles, and spreads woe and sor-
row ell around. 1t cuts down youth in its
vigor, manhood in its strength, and age in its
weakness. 1t breaks the fathers heart, be-
reavss the boating mother, extingaishes natu-
raj affection, grasses coniugal love, blots out I'll
ial attachment, blights parental hope, and
brings down mourning age In sorrow to the
grave. It produces weakness, no. strength;
sickness, not health; death, not life. It makes
wives widows. children orphans, fathers hends,
and all of them beggars. 1t halls fsvers, feeds
,heumatisms, rur .es govt, welcomes epidem-
les invites cholera, emparts pestilence, and em-
braces consumption. 1t covers the land
with idleness, poverty, disease, and crime. IL
oils your jails, supplies your aims houses, and
demands your asylums. 1t engenders contro-
yersies, fosters quarrels, and cherishes riots.
It contemns law, sparns order, and loves mo's.
It crowds your penitentiaries and furnishes the
victims for your scafFolds. 1t Is the life-blood
OF the gambler, he aiiment Of the counter
feiter, the prop of the highwaymen, and the
support Of the midnight incendiaIy. II coun-
~tenance. the liar, respects the thief, and es-
teens the blasphem.r. 1t violates obligation,
reyerences fraud, and honors infamy.. 1t de-
flames beneyolence, hates love, scorns virtue,
and SANDERS innocence. 1t incites the father
to butcher his wife, and aids the child to grind
hi. parricidal axe. 1t burns up man, consumes
woman, aetests life, curses Gcd, and despises
Heaven. It suborns witnesses, rurses perjury,
defles the jury brx, and stains the ~jucicial
crime. It brides votes, disqualihes voters,
corrupts elections, p~ollutes our institutions,
and endangers our Government. 1t degrades
the citizen, debases the legislator, dishonors
the statesman, and disarms the patriot. It
brings shame, not honor; terror, not safety;
despair not hope; misery, not happiness
And now az with the malevolence Of a fend.
it calmly surveys its frigh:fnl desolations, and,
insatiate with havoc, it poisons felicity, kills
peace, ruins morals, blights confidence, Stays
