work away at saving their souls? Why,
he knows that God himself cannot poss-
IDLY save them unless they quit the swll-
milk traffic or the sat-meat sausage line.
Is it not altogether best for him to plainly
tell them so. In like sort it seems to us
utterly absurd for the Christian preach
err to keep silence about political sins, i'll
order the better to save the souls of po-
litical sinners. And wrong, too: it min
listers to terrible delusion, He is bound
to warn them that unless they leave off
praeticing. or supporting the practice OF
political wickedness, neither God, nor
anything else in the universe, can posi-
bly, save their souls. Beside, saved souls
are needed in this world--rightly saved
souls, who make the precepts of tho gos-
pei the rule of their conduct in all the re-
lations of life-politicsl as well as social
who love their duty SO well that they
do not stop to think of payment in anoth-
err world, in order to find motive for
doing it in this. God has many present
uses for such souls besides going to church
aud sacrament, praying in their families
and in their closets, subscribing to the
tract society, and the like; among which
lses we reckon eminen:ly the standing
up for truth and righteousness against
fraud and corruption, orjustice and mer-
ey against oppression and wrong in pub
lie conduct. Aud SO, even supposjrg
man, who is recreaut to Christian priils
cples, may be good enough Christian
to escape uncomfortable quarters in an
other world, he will still be very poor
sort Of Christian for some of the most
important uses God has for Christians in
this world.
ain fine, therefore, we do not see but
the Christian preacher, in order to save
souls to any good purpose, either for
this world or for the next, must in das
season and proportion, concern himself
more or less directly with political mat
tiers, cannot let them altogether alone.--
But, it is still insisted, that if the minister
breaches the Gospel, wins soul Is 10 Christ,
makes men good Christians,' there is no
need of political preaching get the heart
right and you have the sure cure for all
political and social evils. These are very
respectable platitudes of phrase; there
would not bea word to say against them,
if they were not used to beg the question.
They imply the assumption that inss free
country, whore the people have political
powers, rights, duties-where there are
political temptations, sins, evils-you can
preach the Gospel, wins souls 10 Christ.
can make men good Christians, without
meddiing in any special way with polt
ical subjects, which is precisely what
we deny. Besides, where does the prin-
ciplc go? 1t precludes all other special
preaching-makas it needless, if net im-
proper, to preach particularly about any
of the special temptations, SINS, wrong
practices, and evil customs of society; and
would make great placards of Christians
generalities posted on the walls of church
es, Or in other public places, answer all
the ends of the Christian pulpit--at @

DoGs.-The dogs in a family are a
study. We cannot help comparing their
conduct with that of human beings
thinking of them as such, in fact, uncon
ciously, if not loving them rs well. With
open doors and gates to go away if they
please, they stay with as and take such
treatment as wo choose to give them
invited indoors or left in the cold-fed
with what is left of our table, or perhapr
carelcssly forgotten-worked or played
with-noticed in return for an express
ion Of Joy, or perhaps beaten back and
neglected. They watch for us by night,
give us bouptiful welcome when we re-
turn after absence, are happy at being
let stay with us without talking to, and
are delighted to go and come with US,
asking no questions and following with

love to us as fate pleases, but man
