The MODERN PuLPIr-The oracular power and
virtue which once dwet in the pulpit have departed
to the printing press on the other side of the street.
The parish church which once lorded it over the
landscape and pointed its steeple, like a still finger
OF hushng awe over the landscape. and even the
minister who lifted up broader hand of more i'm.
perative power, have found formidable rivals not
only in the dissenting chapel, but IN the private
school nay in the public house of the village where
men talk, and think, and form passionate purposes
over newspaper. Sermons are now critic sed, not
obeyed; and when our modern Pauls preach, our
FellXes yawn instead of trembling, Ministers have
become tmid and apologetic class the fearless.
ness of Knox is seldom met with, save among the
fanatics of their number in whom it looks simply
ridiculous. The thunders of the pulpit have died
away, or when they awakened, it is through the
preachers determination to be popular, or through
the agitation of his despair he in general consuis,
not commands the taste of his audience and his
word, unlike his professed Masters is without au.

sacredness in work. Were he never so benighted
forgetfu of his high calling there is always nope in
a man that actually and earnestly works in idleness

the real desire to get work done will itself lead
more and more to truth, to natures appointments
and regulations, which are truth Consider how

The Wife.

On earth, to man there is bui one
His heart can love-his soul cao own;
Though myriads tlit before his view,
There is but one to whom he S true
That one can sway him to and fro;
Can make him drain the cup of woe;
Can give him joy, or blast his life;
And that ones name is simpy-wife.
But in that name a world is sphered,
A world by all beloved, revercd,
Who have the sense 10 know its worth,
And spurn the gaudy joys Of earth;
For that full heart in her dear breast
Ifrightly priced rest
Is not with blissful sweets more rife,
Than that pure heart-a loving WIFE

"What the news?'
"Why, good woman" said he, the Indians
have fixed crowbar under Lake Erie, and are going
to turn it over and drown the word?"
"Oh, mercy, what shall do?" and away she ran
to tell the nelghbors of the danger, and inquire of
her minister how such calamity, might be ayerted

ADVICE TO WIsEs-A wife must learn how to
iorm her husbands happiness, and in what direction
the secret lies; she must not cherish his weaknesses
by working upon them; she must not rashly run
counter to his preudces; her motto must be, never
TO irritate. She must study never to draw largely
on the small stock of patience in mans nature, nor
10 Increase his obstinacy, by trying to drive him;
never never, if possible, to have scenes. We doubt
much If a real quarrel, even if made up, does
not lossen the bond between and wife, and some
tunes, unless the affection of both be very sincere,
'astingly. If irritation should occur woman must
expect to hear from most men strength and vehe'
mence Of language far more than the occasion re-
qures. Mild as well stern men are prone to this
exnegeration of language; let not woman be
tempted to say anything sarcastic or violent in re-
aliaton. The bitterest repentance must needs fol-
low low if she do. Men frequently forget what they
nave sad but seldom what is uttered by their wives
hey arc grateful too for forbearance in such cases
