A Cheerful Heart.

once heard young lady say to an ndivid-
ual: "Your countenance to me is like the
rising sun; for it always gladdens me with a
cheerful look" merry or cheerful counte-
nance was always one of the things which
Jeremy Taylor said his enemies or prosecutors
could not take from him. There are some per-
sons who spend their lives in this worldas they
would spend their lives if shut up in dun
ceon. Everything is made gloomy and for
bidding. They 60 mourning and complaining
from day to day that they bave so little, and
are constantly anxious lest what little they
nave will escape out Of their hands. They
look always upon the dark side, and can never
cnjuy the good that is present for the evil that
is to come. That is no religion. Religion
maketh the heart cheetiul and when its large
aud benevolent principles are exercised, men
will lie happy in spite of themselves. The in-
dnstrious bee does not complain that there are
so many poisonous flowers aud thorny branches
in his rad, bat buzzes on, selecting the honey
where he can find it, and passes quietly by the
places where it is not. There is enough in this
world to complain about and find fault with,
if men have the disposition. We often travel
IN hard uneven roads; but with a cheerful
spirit we may walk therein with comfort, and
come to the end of our journey in peace.

language. As he stopped under shed in the
midst Of them. be felt called upon 10 give at
least his testimony against their wickedness.
Don't you think said he, speaking with
the greatest deliberation and solemnity, "I
shall appear as a swift witness against you in
the day Of judgment?'

rogue always turns States evidence"
Matthew, when be got to the meeting, rela-

"And what did you say in reply, Mr.
Wilkes7" said one Of the ministers present..

Then they said;
Surely it must be pearls tha; thou 'akest

And he answered only;

4 CoxaoS SExse TIgw-The New
York Herald, referring TO the financial
condition of the Government, says: The
whole matter is plain enough, and can be
summed up in few words. The income
from reyenue is falling of, and likely TO
fall off more, from the disorganizasion Of
the executive departments Of the Govern
eminent. from the stupendous frauds, and
from the reduction of taxes on manutsc-
lures The expenditures continue to be
enormous, sspecially in the War Depart
ment, and are exceeding the income. Mr..
McCulloch's large money reserve is rap
idly wasting away. and there is likely to
be an empty Treasury before the end OF
many months"
