The mirror" on Conservatism.

No man is to be blamed for seeing and lament
ing from his inmost soul the moral evils which
prevail in the world Indeed he is inhuman
and unchristian who does not. But for these is
only one remedy. We may try Others till our
strength is exhausted; but they will not avail.
If we are ever successful we must come back to
that which infinite wisdom and goodness has
prescribed. We may feel impatient, to be tied
down to the divinely authorized remedy, and
the divinely prescribed methods of applying it.
We may fret ourselves, that it operates so slow
y and does not effect an instant cure. But
shall we set up our own plans, and our own wis
dom in opposition to those of our Maker
Can it be- that he who made man has mistaken
the right means for reforming him, or for train
ing him so as best to fulfil his destiny? The
suggestion is dishonorable to our Creator. Be
sides, his method is sure unfailing one Meth
er is it soineficient and slow as many imagine.
He works unseen, as well as visibly His rem
edy is always operating. 1t is the eaven hid
in the meal" 1t is active powerfully, before
men see its full result and may be thus active
on thousands of minds, while those who insru-
mentally apply it are perhaps lamenting that
they "labor in vain, and spend their strength,
for nought The most essential and valuable
part Of the operation is that which works unseen
that reformation which begins in the depths
of the soul for unless the change for the better
begins with the "word hid in the heart" it will
not be permanent in outward action but "en-
dure only for awhileo With the heart man
believeth unto Righteousness. It was an ap-
propriate question, though put by vile ana
treacherous character 'tHow canst thou say,

Nothing is of greater Importance, in a re-
former than answering confidence in the power
and suficiencv of Gods truth. This, rightly
divided will do the work, if it is ever done.
Our business is to ply this truth in its purity and
noint its length and breadth, its depth and
height it's force and pathos, in its leading pro-
positions and minute details, as adapted to the
Grand divisions Of coaracter, and to different
shades and aspects. Of character in the, same
division It is only by the light Of truth poured
in upon the mind, that man sees his speculative
errors, and pratical transgressions The truth
of God does that for man, which no human in
|vention or continuance can possibly effect. "The

Children are eloquent teachers Many les
son which has done our heart good, have We
learned from their lisping lips. 1t was but the
other day another took root in our memory
We were going to picnic, and of course the
little ones had been in ecsacies for several days.
But the appointed morning broke with no glad
sunshine no songs of birds, no peals of mirth-
There was every prospect of rain-even Hope
hid her face and wept
"Shan't we go, mother 7" exclaimed child Of
five, with passionate emphasis.

And SO he did, poor little fellow, but never
bit of blue sky gladdened his eyes.
Well, | dou't care, mother, said he when the
tedious d;,y had at length numbered all its hours.
" If haven't seen it, | know there is blue sky
/"
The next morning there was blue sky, whole
heaven full of it, clear, glorious blue sky such as
only greets US after weary storm.
"There, mother didn' Il tell you so % cried
a Joyous voice " there is blue sky!''
Then the little head dropped for moment In
silent thought AS

sensible man, who laughed a little, to be sure, in
everything he said, rendering it difficult to know
whether he was in jest or earnest; but who talked
of the weather, the scenery, and the pcnics to
the cave in the mountain, so politely and shrewdly
that every one was delighted. But the nephew
He bewitched everybody won all hearts As
for his exterior, it was impossible to call him
exact y handsome. The lower part of his face,
especially his jaw, projected too far, and his
complexion was extremely dark while occa-
sionaly he made the most remarkable grimaces,
shutting his eyes, and swapping his teeth to-
gether queerly but people found the shape Of
his features exceedingly interesting. "He is an
Englishman," people said; they are all So
We must not be too particular with an English
man."
Towards his old.uncle he was very submissive;
for whenever he began to jump too vivaciously
about the room, or as he seemed particularly in
clined to do draw his feet up under him on his
chair, single stern glance from the old man
served to bring him to order at once And how
could one be angry with the young man, when
his uncle, in every house, said to the lady, Ny
nephew is still little raw and ill-bred, madam
but anticipate much from the modifying effect
produced by your society, and implore your
forgiveness for any gaucheries he may happen
to be guilty of"
Thus was the nephew at length introduced to
the gay world, and all Grunwiesel spoke of no.
thing else for the two following days but this
great event. The old gentleman renowned his
habits of retirement, and seemed to have wholly
altered his modes of thought and life. In the
afternoons he went, with his nephew, to the cave
in the mountain where the more important citi-
zens of Grunwiesel drank beer and rolled nine
pins. Here the nephew showed himself skill
full master of the game; for he never threw less
than five or six balls. Occasionally a strange
humor seized him. 1t happened, more than once,
that he rushed like all arrow down among the
ninepins with one of the balls making dread
full racket, and when he made a spare or ten
strike the fancy sometimes came over him to
stand erect on his nicely -curled head, and ex-
tend his legs high in the air; or, if carriage
happened to pass, before one knew what he was
about he would be seen sitting on the top of the
vehicle making the most ludcrous grimaces,
and, after riding on a short distance, return,
with prodigious leaps and bounds, to the party
he had quilted.
The old gentleman, at such incidents as these,
was wont to beg ten thousand pardons of the
burgomaster and the other gentleman. for his
nephew's eccentricities. They, in reply, would
laugh, ascribe such conduct to his youthful
spirits, declare they had been just the same in
their youth, and admire the young springal, as
they called him, Immensely.

Love of Country.
BIT SIR WALTER SCOTT.

I" Breathes there man with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land
Whose heart has nee within him burned,
As home, his footsteps he hath turned
From wandering strand
If such then breathe, go mark him we'll;
For him no minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles, proud his fame,
Boundless his wealth as wish can claim
Despite those titles, power and pelf,
The wretch concentred all in self
Living, shall forfeit fair renown,
And doubly dying shall go down
To the vile dust from whence he sprung,
Unwept, unhonored, and unsung."
