Religious federation.

We have met with nothing better, in
our late reading, than the following,
from the pen Of Jeremy Taylor. 1t
suggests the exquisite lines of Colcr-
idgo;
ale prayeth best who loveth we'll
Both man, and bird, and beast
lie prayeth best who loveth best
All things both great and small,
For the dear God, who loveth us,
lie maic and loveth all"
Any zeal is ptoper for religion but the
zeal Of the sword and the zeal of an
ger; this is the bitterness of zeal, and it
is certain temptation to every man
against his duty; for if the sword turns
preacher and dictates propositions by
empire instead OF arguments, and engra-
YES them in mems hearts with poignard
that it shall be death to believe wha: l
innocently and ignorently am pursuaded
Of, it must needs be unsafe to "try the
spirits" to "try all things" to make an
inquiry and yet without this liberty no
man can justify himself before God or
man, nor confidently say that his reli-
gion is best. This is iuordination of
zeal for Christ, by reproving st. Peter
for drawing his sword even in the cause
Of Christ for his sacred and yet. injured
person, teaches us not to use the sword,
though in the cause Of God or for God
himself, l end with story which l find
in the Jews books.
When Abraham sat at his tent-door,
according to his custom, waiting 20 en-.
tertain strangers, he espied an old man
STOPPING and leaning on his staff weary
with age and travel, coming towards
him, who was hundred years of age.
lie received him kindly, washed his feet
provided supper, caused him to sit down;
but observing that the old man ate, and
prayed not, nor begged for a blessing
on his meat, he asked him why he did
not worship the God of heaven. The
old man told him that he wol SHIPPED the
fire only, and acknowledged no other
God. At which answer Abraham grew
so zealously angry that he thrust the old
man out Of his tent and exposed him to
all the evils Of the night and an unguar-
ded condition. When the old man was
gone, God called to Abraham and asked
him where the stranger vas. lie re-
piled, thrust him away because he did
not worship thee. God answered him,
l have suffered him these hundred years,
although he dishonered me and couldst
thou not endure Kim one night when he
gave thee no trouble? Upon this, saith
the story Abraham fetched him back
again, and gave him hospitable enter
tainment and wise instruction Go
thou aud do likewise, and thy charity
will be rewarded by the God of Abra,
ham.

PRODUCE, MARKET, &o.-In consequence
of the bad condition of the roads and the
general decline in prices, business has not
been active during the past week. But
little produce has been brought in, prices
constantly tending downwards. We quote
wheat at 65 cents per bushel for No. L;
corn in the ear, 55 cents; oats, 80 cents;
hay, Sc per ton; wood, s. to S. per cord.
A Drove of oxen, numbering over three

the purpose of driving them west. We
