THE WORST MOTIyEs.-There
is perhaps i no. seyerer nor
stronger proof of theodoctrine
of total depravity than is con-
tanned in the fact that the ma
jointly of people always aseribe
the conduct of others to the
most selfish and unworthy mo-
tives. / tt, seems to be q rule of
popular criticism, at Least, that
men in public stations are ne
yer to be credited with the
possession of generous, or
truthful, or henest purposes
But this rule could not have
come to exist save through the
consciousness which the many
have, that their own motives
are base, selfish, OF sinister.
For bad men estimate Others,
mainly, by what they have
learned Of human nature IN
themselves. He, therefore, who
lis swift to suspect and eager to
accuse his fe1lowmen Of being
Influenced by selfish or base
motives, thereby confesses that
he has learned fiistrs1st of
Others by feeling tiistaslst for
| himself. The temper that de
lights i'm the vice OF suspicion
| has little confideneoi i'm the pos
sibility Of huanaa virtue. lsiw

Civilization Weakens as sceH
as Strengtheas.--Society never
advances ]; it reeedes on one
side as it gains on the other
Tt undergoes considerable
changes !; it is barbarous, it is
Christianized, it is rich, it. is
scientific, but this change is
not ameliorated. For every
thing that is given, something
is taken. Society acquires new
arts, and loses old Instincts.
What a contrast between the
well-clad, reading, writing,
thinking American, with o
watch, q pencil, and q bill Of
exchange in his pocket, and the
naked New Zealander, whose
property is a club, q spear, a
mat, an undivided twenthieth
of a shed to sleep under! But
compare the health OF the two
men, and you viii sec that the
white man has lost his aborigi-
nal strength. If the traveller
tells It's truly, strike the savage

two the flesh shall unite and
heal % if you had struck the
blow into soft pitch, and the
same blow shall send the white
man to his grave. The civilized
man has built a coach, but has
lost the use of his feet. He is
supported on crutches, but
lacks the supportiof muscle
He possesses a fine Waltham
watch, but he fails Of the skill
to tell the horr by the sun. A
Greenwich nautical almanach he
has, but being as sure ofIthe
information when he wants it,;
the man in the street does not
know q star IN the sky. The sol

equinox he knows as little, and
the whole bright calendar of
the year is without a dial in his
| mind. His note books impair
his memory bis libraries over
load his wit; the insurance
Office increases the number Of

question whether machinery
