LEcTuR1SG JuRY.-One day of last
week Judge Gould, of the Court of Oyer and
| Terminer was no sooner on his seat when he
inquired whether the jury, who on the previ-
Gus night had convicted one Patrick Henne-
sey of arson in the third degree, were in
court. Having been answered that they
were, the Judge rebuked them il the follow
ing manner:
Because ajury have merely the physical
power of finding person guilty of one or an
other offence, they have no rightin any shape
or manner to convict this prisoner of arson in
the third degree They were told express
ly and explicitly, as matter of Law, that if
they found that the prisoner set the building
on fire, their duty was to find him guilty of
arson in the second degree: By their finding
they found that he kindled the fire, and they
presumed to overrulo the Courton question
of law: and say here, emphatically, that it
is as absolutely morafperjury as if they had
themselves committed perjury on the witness
stand Now | will observe that the Court
does not sit here as mere matter of farce, to
tell the jury what the law is; and tits just as
much matter Of accident without their know
ing anything of arson in the third or fortieth
degree) whether they gave conviction that
would enttle the prisoner to q new trial as
to whether it rains or shines to-day. The du-
ty of the jury is to take the law from the
Curt, and merely their having the physical
power to say Eyes" or mo" gives them no
right to transcend the directions given.
They were informed distinctively that the
fact of the setting on 6rewa all that they
had to do with

SKEpTIcIsM.- The first step towards
the abyss of infdelity is a doubling or
skeptical state Of mind in regard to some
parts, or the whole, of the Scriptures;
the next is either into the wilderness of
universal doubt, or into the abyss itself.
Skepticism is most dangerous state of
the mind Like moderate drinking, it
leads on its unhappy victim from bad to
worse, till both mind and heart are ruined
and damned forever II is the moral in
ebriation of the man in it's incipient
stages. Beware of it, ye young men, as
ye would the contagion of death. It has
no power of fascination. Its breath is
tainted and repugnant. Its administra-
tious to the soul are those OF sorrow.
Break from the first symptoms of it's
deadly approach. Let not a corrupt and
unbelieving heart beguile thee with the
promises of proud and vain philosophy.
There is no safety in cultivated intel
lect, nor in oil the resources which
Christian education, the watchfulness and
teachings of friends-no, not even under
the droppings of the sanctuary Inthe
faith of Jesus only there is safety. Be-
lieve in him to the salvation of the soul;
then will you know the truth, and the
truth shall make you free.'-Congrega-
