A Child's Testimony.

James , q boy Of twelve, went in
to the house of a neighbor where a sweet
babe lay dying. The child was in convul-
sions, and the parents were weeping in ag-
ony. His tender heart was melted with
sympathy and fear as he looked on death
for the first time. When he was leaving
the house, the father observed that he seem
ed anxious to say something, though his
utterance was choked with tears. "What
were you going to say, James 7" said the
father.
"Only, sir, that you ought to be very
thankful that it is Eva that's dying for If
IL was johnny, you could haze no hope for
his soul, and you know Eva is safe"
Johnny was Eva's brother, and of the
same age with james. Some persons APP
pear to wonder if children of that age can
become Christians. Here is testimony from
the lips Of a boy religiously educated, who
when he saw death, felt bis own and his
young companions danger, and need of
salvation. We trust little Eva is safe with
Him who "carrieth tie lambs in his bo-
som; but how would it be with the young
readers Of this paper of the age Of James
and Johnny, should they be suddenly call

Who is Better than Uncle Sammy?

no Ii oeJL6r Lndu Oucle sammy
Among the early inhabitants of B,
Vermont, was our old, respected, and much
beloved friend Uncle Sammy S.
He had lived an exemplary moral life, and
was often engaged in ~praiseworthy acts of
benevolence. His attendance upon public
worship was regular, and he was frequent
ly pointed at by scofers as being as good
as the Christian. Exultingly they would
exclaim, "Show us a man among your
church-members who leads a better life
than Uncle Sammy yes, or one who is as
exemplary. He makes no profession of re-
ligion. / despise hypocrites. l would
rather be in Uncle Sammy's place, and run
his risk, than that of any member of the
church." Truly it was a severe ordeal to
have ones life, all which the world can
Judge Of, placed in the balance with that of
Uncle Sammy.
Time rolled on. There was a season of
unusual spiritual interest in the village of
B, with morning prayer-meetings,
and some it was hoped had already been
led to Christ. Uncle Sammy had often
been invited to take part in these and 9TH
er meetings, but though generally present,
he uniformly declined. One beautiful NOR
ning-it was the oath Of June, 1881
some Of those who protested to love the
Bible, and to be influenced by its teach
ings, had assembled in the old academy of
the village to plead for the continued de-
scent of the Holy Spirit, when the door
opened and Uncle Sammy came in, his face
beaming with delight as soon as an OPP
portunity offered, with more than earthly
JOY he exclaimed, II mn serenity gears old
to-day, and last night I found a Saviour"
The announcement was heard by the
praying circle with surprise and Joy and
thanksgiving to God.
But what was the effect upon those who
could see no form or comeliness in Christ
that they should desire him /; those who
formerly had pointed 10 our aged friend
now our new-born %convert, as a model o
morality, if not Of perfection? They were
for a moment led to wonder at the result
and almost to deplore hat the church o
God was to have such an accession bu
soon this lesson was forgotten by his oil
admirers, and Uncle Sammy was though
Of as a very good man, but none the bette
for being a church-member. Could they
like the old man, have felt the joys of PAL
doned sin, as, like a little child, he bega
to ask for light, and to desire his own wi
to be in conformity to that of his HEAVIER
ly Father-could they have experience
the peace and Joy which welled up in h
soul as his faith laid firmly hold Of God
promises, perhaps they would have felt tt
necessity of such a change in their ow
hearts.
Uncle Sammy lived more than a SEQ,
Of years to testify to the goodness of &C
in his conversion, and to teach the skept
cal that the outward conduct may be We
good and praisoworthy, and still the hea
net be right-that God requires the natl
al heart to be changed and its a~fectio
directed heavenward, before it can ex,
else that love which is acceptable to Hi
and can rejoice in that hope which is
the soul " an anchor both sure and ste,
fast" IL
