His qualifying words are sometimes ponderous
and clumsy, as s' blood-turreted waIls,'' and
his blank verse occasionally limps, for lack of

THE FULLNEss OF CnRIsT.-The happiness
we derive from creatures is like a beggar's
garment it is made up of pieces and patches,
and is worth very little after all. But the
bIessedneGs we derive from the Savior is sim
gle and complete. In Him all fulness dwells.
He is coeval With every period. He is ans.
werable to every condition. He is a physi-
clan to heal, a counsellor to plead, a king to
govern, a friend to sympathite, a father to
provide. He is a foundation to sustain, a
root to e%nliven, a fountain to refresh. He is
the shadow from the heat, the bread of life,
the morning star, the sun of Righteousness
all, and IN all. No creature can be a sub.
stitute for Him, but He can supply the place
of every creature. He is all my salvation
and all my desire; my hope, my life, my
glory and joy.
Whom have | In heaven but Thee? ant
there is none upon earth that | desire beside
Thee. My flesh and my heart faileth, bu
Thou art the strength of my heart and m,
portion forever. | cannot be exposed, l can
not be friendless, l cannot be poor, | canno
be fearful, | cannot be sorrowful, with Thee

DEvorloN.-If we know that an individual
holds communion with God, that fact tends
to give us confidence in Him. Something
within us tells US that the praying person is
one who will not injure us, and one whom we
can safely trust. 1t was upon this principle
that an infdel who was travelling, and who
was overtaken by ntght-fall in Il lonely and
dangerous place, confessed thqt he was re-
lieved of his fears of being assassinated,
when the owner of the cabin where he had
taken shelter led the family in prayer before
retiring to rest. The inidel slept soundly
after such a manifestation of Christianity
A cabin rooted and walled by prayer could
not be an unsafe place, he thought. We
have authority for another pleasing incident,
illustrating the same point. In exercising
hospitality to clergyman who arrived at a
dwelling late in tine evening, the heads Of
the house surrendered to him their own cham
Der. Their little daughter, three years of
age, was asleep in the crib, and they con-
cluded not to disturb her. Quite early in
the morning she awoke, and looking toward
the bed usually occupied by her parents, saw
a stranger there, At first she was startled,
and covered her head with the counterpart.
Soon, however, she peeped out and said,
d" Man, do you pray to God?" Yes" was
the reply, 81 love God, and pray to him
every day." This satisfied the little inquirer
she smiled, turned over, and dropped asleep.
