never be of any practical service, and may
therefore be thrown aside fer the rust to feed
upon. But Tie hambieat, faithful Sabbath
/ School Teacher takes a position far above
! all such uncertainties. He has the promise
J of the Interchangeable Jehovah that the woRD
/ which he teaches shall not be without eff
| feet; 'skull not return unto him void''
in the enumeration of the items of the
Christian panoply, the EYoRD OF COP is re-
presented as the Sword of the Spirit.
We can hardly conceive how language
could more foFcibly and mpressiveiy de-
scribe the power and efficiency of the in-
s:raneDt which the Sabbath School Teacher
employs in The prosecution OF his work.
The expressed viii of God is, that all men
shonld come to q knowledge of that truth by
which the soul is sanc.iied and saved. He
has always Eonored his reUsa:eI aoorG as the
INSTRUMENT Of saving the souls OF men.
And he has especially promised that by
taking heed to it, the young shall cleanse
their way.
Here then lies the power of the Sabbath
School Teacher. In faithful, truth ful, and
in'eliigibie exhibition of the simplest truths
contained in the sacred volume, to the mind
of the pupil. Accompanied with earnest nd
humble prayer, that the promised blessing OF
its Divine AulhoF may be upon it.
Aud now permit me to give word of ex-
hortatiou.
To Suparintendents and those who have
f,f ,iN4tI h. :.
remember that character is made up entirely
OF small things. And further. those small
things are gathered by the youthful mind,
not by the hearing OF the ear alone, but also
by every action put forth by those whom
they look upon for instruction.
Teacher, yoar position is an important one
A more noble employ ment than yours new
er engaged the heart Of man. Its dignity is
conceded by all vino have investigated the
subject. You have the charge of the
mind at its forming period. The oak, W bile
sapling, may oe bent at pleasure The
clay while soft is susceptible Of almost any
shape. The youthful mind thus taken while
young and unfdrnished, while memory is
reten'ive, the heart tender and unprejudiced
the conscience unlFameled, in your hands.
may have Its character formed on the eter-
nal basis of Scripture truth.
Your position is like that of your pastor
in kind ii not in degree, you are Tor the time
being the instructor ard spiritual adviser OF
your little flock. Aud just in proportion to
the failhfulness with which you cow and
cultivate, may you expect to reap har-
vest. Let 10 Indifferent cause ever keep
you from your place before your class at the
opening of the school; no class can ever be
benefited much by one, who for tri-
fling cause is frequently abseat.
And let none esteem it small thing to be
engaged in this work-let US each ask our
selves the question, Lord what wilt thou have
ne to do! And if We have done that first
stessiis.g, which is 10 sUonIit our own wiii at.
fectons, and purposes entirely to God, the
answer comes back go acorh IN my Uire

DUTIES OF DAILY LIFE.

Life is not entirely made OF great evils or
heavy trials; but the perpetual recurrence
of petty evils and small irials is the ordinary
and appointed exercise OF the Christian
praces. To bear with the ;aings OF those
about us---wlth their ihtirrnities. their bad
judgme Mt. their li-nreeding, their perverse
temperate endure neglect when feel
we deserve attention, and ingraiiiude when
we expect thaDks--io bear with the compa-
ny of disagreeabie persons whom Providence
has placed In our way, and whom He has
provided on purpose ior the trial OF our viz
tue-these are the best exercises of paiicn e
and seit-denial, and the better because chos-
en- by ourselves. To bear with vcxation in
business, with disappointment in our expec-
tatiuns, with interruptions of our retirement
with folly, intrusion, disturbance--in short
whatever opposes our will, contradcts our
huInor; this babitual acquesence appears to
be more OF The essence Of selt-denial than
any little rigors or affections OF our own i'm
posing. These constant, in evitable, but in
ferior evils, properly improved, furnish a
good moral discipline, and might in the days
of ignorance, have superseded pilgrimage
and penance.-Hanah Moore.

THE SPIRIT OF LOVE.

Beyond all question, it is the unalterable
constitution of nature that there is efficacy
in love. The exhibition of kindness has
the power to bring even the irrational ami
NAL into subjecton. Show kindness to a
dog and he will remember it; he will be
grateful, he will infailI5iy return love for
love. Show kindness to Lion, and you
can lead him by the mane; you eau msi' the
untamed ferocity Of his heart into an aiicc-
tiea stronger than death. In all OF God's
vast unbounded creation, there is not il living
being, from the least to the largest, not one,
even the outeast and degraded serpent, that
is inseusibe TO an acl of kindness. Il love
such as our blessed Savior manifested, could
be introduced into the world and exert its ap-
propriate dominion, it would restore state
Of things far brighter than the fabulous age
OF gold; it would annihiate every sting,
would pluck every poisonous tooth; it would
hush every discordant voice. Even the m
animate creature is not SO insensible to this
divine influence. The bud and flower and
fruit put forth most abundantiy and beauti-
fully, where the hand OF kindness is extend
ed for their culture. And if this blessed in
fuence should extend itself over the earth,
. moral garden of Eden would exist in every
land; instead of the thorn and brier, would
spring up fhe fir tree and the myrtle; the
desert would blossom and the solitary place
be made glad.

POVERTY.

Much has been suid and sung, and preach
ed and prayed, of poverty, and consequent
suffering, but we imagine very few OF
readers know anything about it from actual
observation. Were human suffering to be
mapped out, it would be a queer piece of
work. Round every body's next neighbor,
there would not be sight of sorrow, nor u
sign of poverty, but a great way off from
everybody, the shadows would be thick, dark
and forever. A strange chartit would be in
deed, but no more strange than the belief
Of most of US, expressed in deeds il
not in words. We give to the ends of the
earth; we are apt to forget those of our own
households. We go on crusades to rescue
the Holy Lands abroad; We let the temples
of our Holy Land at home be desecrated,
and the fires upon its alters to be extinguish-
ed.-There's Poverty in the street We dwell
in, giving p;t,ance to Want in the street
next but one, and we send u contribution to
relieve distress in the Fejee Islands Hin
dostan. Humanity is curious piece OF work
and it works curioasly withal.

RECREATION.

Can anything be more lanentable to con-
template than q dull, grim, and vicious pop
ulation, whuse only amusement is sensual
tyg Yet what can we expect, if we provide
no means of recreation-if we never share
our own pleasures with our poorer brethren
As for our cathedrals and great churches, we
mostly have them we'll locked, for fear any
one should steal in aud say prayer, or con-
template n noble work of art without paying
for it; and we shut people up by thousands
in dense towns with no outlet To the coun-
try but those which are guarded on each
side by dusty hedges. Now an open space
near a town Ia one of natures caurches; and
it is an imperative duty to provide such
things. Depend upon it, that man has no
made much progress in humanity, who docs
not care for the leisure hours OF his fellow

PACIFIC HorEL CAsE.-The invcstig CATION
of this case in St. Louis has ended in The
discharge of Taylor, accused of the arson,
but it has given no clue to the manner in
which the Hotel was fred The mystery is
great ever, and though Taylor has been
set at liberty, suspicion still rests upon him.
French, The companion of Doane on the
evening of the fire, was not examined, sick
ness having prevented his attendance before
the Justice who held the investigation. The
substance of what would be his statement
was satisfactorily learned, and it would not
have been sufficient to hold Taylor. The
vain boasts of Taylor led to his accusation,
aud he came near lying his neck into the
halter OF Judge Lynch if not of the criminal
law.

awoar HAsTE LEss gpEE0. :,

Rev. DR.. Dewy recently delivered a lee
tnre in Baltimore, on "Siowness as law Of
progress" in which he said some very just
things One of these was fair hit at the it.i-
patience of delay, SO common in our day, as
manifested in the popular process OF educa-
ton: 'sHe said the same speed was exhibited
with the children in the schools, they were
pressed beyond all reasnn. 1t has become
q rivalry between teachers. which could in
struct the children the most rapidly, and
they were s,put through''-that was the term
Virgil and Euclid was put through
them.
To say he doubted was a very modest
way of expressing the truth. Every one
who has given attention to this subject
knows that, in this country, the cases of
thorough learning are rare exceptions,
while shallowness and smattering are The
general rule. The main point with teacher
and pupil is to get on--no matter how, but
only to get on. Even when the teacher is
awsre of the value of delay, not only to
accuracy, but even as the best means to
speed in the end, he is overruled by the ur-
gency of idle pated parents, who cannot see
why their children should not be put through
as many books as those of their neighbors
are.--I Christian Intelligencer.
