raE ARISE or LOVE.

There are those who need only hint
like that which follows, albeit the hint is
pretty broad one, to induce them to
correct an evil habit into which they have
fallen:
"There are few families, we imagine,
anywhere in which love is not abused as
furnishing the license for impoiteness.-
A husband, father, or brother will speak
harsh words to those whom he loves best,
simply because the security Of love and
family prhae keeps bin from getting his

his sylfe ot sister than he would % ans
other female, except low and vicious
one. 1t is thus that the honest affections
of mans nature Prove-to be a weaker
protection to a woman in the family cir
Gle than the restraints of society, and
that woman is usually indebted for the
kindest politeness of life to those not be-
longing to her own household. Things
ought not 50 to be. The man who, be-
cause it will not be resented, inhicts his
spleen and bad temper upon those of his
own hearth-stone, is small coward and
very mean man. Kind words are circuI-
ating mediums between true gentlemen
and ladies at home, and no polish exhib-
tied in society can atone for the harsh
language and disrespectful treatment too
often indulged inby those bound together
by Gods own ties of blood, and still more
sacred bonds OF conJugal love.
GOOD INFLUENCES NEVER LOST.
An inference as to spiritual things is
here drawn from an admitted fact in the
natural world
sit is law in the material world, that
nothing is absolutely lost. The place,
the form, the material of objects change.
Our bodies die, and turn to dust, the
whole animal and vegetable creations
have their periods of growth and decay.
The waters wear the stones. But in this
change, there is no loss or destruction of
elementary particles. Dissolving ele-
ments appear again in new combinations
and new forms of utility and beauty. The
waters absorbed by the atmosphere, 90
upby the mountains, gather into clouds,
and descend in showers to water the
earth, and enter into the structure of all
living things, And may not law some
thing like this exist in Gods spiritual
kingdom. VIII He, who watches. over
the changing elements Of senseless mat
ter, SO that no one particle is ever lost,
or comes short-of its destination, permit
those good influences which, by grace,
have originated in the faith of his peo-
pie, ever to be lost, or to come short of
their end? Will they not certainly en-

good infaeaces exerted by pious men,

pated. When the blood of the Christian
martyrs was poured on the sands of
Rome, their prosecutors imagined that
they had made an end of their doctrine
But that blood washed into the Tiber,
was carried by its waters into the sea,
and by the sea into the ocean, and by. It's
waves 10 every kingdom Of the earth; and
thus became type, not more of the
spreading doctrines of Christianity, than
Of the augmented and widely difused
influences Of those holy men.
