e q EVERY DAY RELIGIoN.-We must
come back to ourpoint, which is, not to
urge all of you TO give yourselves upto
mission work, but to serve God more
and more in connection with your dai-
Iy calling. l have heard that woman
who has a mission makes a poor wife
and bad mother this is very possi
BILE, and at the same time very lament
able but the mission I would urge is
not of this sort. Dirty rooms, slattern-
ly gowns. andpchildren with unwashed
faces, are swift witnesses against the
sincerity of those who keep others
vineyards and neglect their own. L
have no faith in that woman who talks
of grace and glory abroad, and uses no
soap and water at home. Let the but
tons be on the shirts, let the children's
socks be mended, let the roast mutton
be done, toa turn, let the house be AS
neat as a new pin, and the home be
happy as home can be and then, when
the cannon balls, and the marbles, and
the shots, and even the grains of sand /,
are all in the box, even then there will
be room for those little deeds of love
/ and faith which in my Masters name
/ I seek of you who look. for his appear
ing. Serve God by doing common ac-
tions in a heavenly spirit, and then. fl
YOUR, daily calling only leaves you
cracks and creyices of time, I'LL these
up with holy service. To use the apos
/ ties words, LAS we have opportunity
let us do good unto all men."-Spur

The New Plan of Settlement.

The country is on the eve of revolution and
anarchy. Seeing this, Il number Of gentlemen,
eminent for wisdom aud practical knowledge,
have submitted the plan, published by us last
week, for the settlement of the issues now dis
tracing the public mind Of the country. The
President it is understood, favors the arrange
ment, as well as many others high in author
ity, North and South.
Tho action of Congress, in defeating Mr..
STEVENS radical measures, is hopeful sign.
It is confidently believed that the conscrva-
tive clement of the country is making an
earnest effort to restore peace and harmony,
on the basis of these proposed amendments to
the Federal and State constitutions
With this view of the case we receive these
propositions in the best spirit, and shall give
them our unqualified support.
Weappend a fair synopsis of the proposed
amendments:
First. That the Union is perpetual, and
that there exists under the Constitution no
right on the part Of any State vi people to
withdraw thcrcfrom
Second. That the war and other debts Of
the United States shall be sacred and inyio
late.
Third That tho war debts and obligations
of tho various Commnnwcalths, whilo meal
bers of the late Confederate States, shall be
forever null and void.
Fourth. That all persons, irrespective of
race or color, born or naturalizcd in the Unit
cd States, shall be citizens, not only Of the
United States, but of the States in which they
may reside, and that their privileges and i'm
munitcs rs citizens shall not be abridged by
the laws of any State.
Fifth That these shall be entitled to the
rights life, liberty aud property and to the
equal protection of the laws.
Sixth. That the whole population in each
Commonwealth, excepting Indians not taxed,
shall count for representation, with the pro
viso; that whenever any State shall exclude
from suffrage, whether for Federal or State
office, any portion of its male Inhabitants over
twenty-onc years Of age, by reason Of race,
color, or previous condition Of scrvitudc, these
shall not be considered in the basis of repre-
sentation.
Seventh. That those now entitled, under
the laws in existence, to suffrage, shall retail
their right to vote.
Eighth. That hereafter the qualifications
for suffrage shall be, taxable property to the
