PERILS THREATENING OUR HOMES.


There are two manifest dangers threat
ening the peace of society. Both of them
come from rejection of the authority of
Gods word, and the plain teachings of
Christ. There is, it is said, place on the
Isthmus which connects North and South
America, where the music hymned by the
two oceans may be heard. What that point
is to the traveller, the home is to him who
would blend together the melodies of the
past Eden, and the melodies that rise from
the heaven which is yet to come. The home
resembles some of those castles on the
Rhine, in which love might be enjoyed and
from which danger might be expelled
Break it down, destroy it. or deface that
which Christ built, and the people relapse
into the Paganism of the ancients, or into
the MOrmonism of the present. Lust, am
bition, love of power, discomfort with Gods
goodness, imperil all that is bright and
beautiful about US. The word of God is
the dyke that keeps back the food of crime,
of debauchery, of wantoness. Tampel
with its commands, belittle them in pub
lie estimation, weaken the hold which they
have upon the public conscience, and you
Thereby destroy everything that is pure
and of goodreport among us. Ofthe home
which Christianity builds and love warns
1 have not time to speak. 1t is ours tC
protect and cherish that which God has
given us, and he is worse than a coward
who neglects to do his whole duty.-Rer

value Christ as his true significance; "He
who spared not His own Son, but gave
him up for us all, how shall He not with
him also freely give us all things?" And
to Gods children the declaration is GAIL
things are yours" They own the universe
in fee simplicity direct charter from alb
owe. Yes, more and better than all, they
own God Himself, the Maker and glory Of
the universe. This is the end of all prov
idence, and the most minute event has its
place in the vast system to help on and
bring about this end. The smallest link
in the chain cannot be lost, or broken
without injury to the whole.
Thus, starting with the fact of Divine
Providence, and taking our guide from
Revelation, we see what itis-what it must
be-in its relations, its minuteness, its
compreh ensiveness, and its final end. And
what a sublime and joyous theme of con-
temptation No finite mind can grasp OIL
declare it fully.
A variety of practical and profitable
thoughts are suggested by the view thus
far taken, to which attention will be called
hereafter. W.

The Bible the best Corrective.

The first seven years of life are far more
important than parents are aware of. In
them are sown the seeds OF all that is good
and amiable in character, or all that is
evil. The most effective corrector, even
at this early period, is the bible. While
yet too young to read its blessed precepts,
the child may be taught to repeat, and
even to apply, texts of scripture; for the
preceptive portions are easily understood.
The writer is acquainted with little girl,
not quite four years old, who had been
nourished in this way on the Bread ofLife
and was desired by her mother to put off
her new apron and put on an old one this
she refused to do, and began to cry. A
friend, who witnessed the scene, solemnly
said, 'The eye that mocketh at his father,
and despiseth to obey his mother, the raw
ems of the valley shall pick it out, and the
young eagles shall eat it." The first six
words had not been repeated before she I'M
tied the apron, and quietly suffered the
other to be tied on. This text she had been
made to memorize, and no sooner was she
reminded of it than it had its desired eff
feet. In many other instances the child
was induced to do that which was right,
and to avoid that was sinful, by simply APP
plying the word of God. She was never
known to lie or steal, or play in church,
because she had been taught those portions
of the word of God that plainly forbid those
sins. never knew child who seemed
so to fear God, or have clearer under
standing of the nature of sin. When she
did wrong, it was sufficient to tell her it
was sinful This example is an illustra-
ton of the following passage in Isaiah: =
"Whom shall he teach knowledge, and
whom shall he make to understand doc
trine? Them that are weaned from the

milk, and drawn from the breasts. For
precept must be upon precept, line upon
line, here little, and there little"
Children are usually taught hymns, and
no objection can be made to this custom.
From the hymns of DR.. Watts for children
much good may be done, and has been;
but as children are not deep thinkers, and
may fail in applying them as rule ofprac-
tice-as far as my observation goes, | must
hold to my position-the most effectual an
tidote is an early acquaintance with the
word of God. In appropriating preceptive
texts of scripture there can be no failure,
it will not return void. A precept from
tive than that taught in a hymn-one is
from God, the other from man. The COM
mand of God to his people Israel, relative
to the subject is imperative, "Now these
are the commandments, the statutes, and
the judgments, which the Lord your God
commanded to teach you, that you might
do them in the land whittier We 60 to pos
sess it; and thou shalt teach them diligent-
ly unto thy children, and shalt talk of them
when thou sittist in thinehouse, and when
thou walkest by the way, and when thou
liest down, and when thou risest up; and
it shall be our righteousness if we observe
to do all these commandments before the
Lord our God, as he hath commanded US"
We may learn from this passage what God
requires of parents, and the promises made
to those who comply.
The following incident is not irrelevant
to the subject now presented to maternal
attention: A very faithful, but rather in
judiciOus mother was once conversing with
her children on the subject of religion land
as usual was too long. When she had con-
cluded her lecture, one of the little girls
observed to her, Mother, you do not teach
us as the bible says" How so, my child ?''
"Why, that says, here a little, and there q
little but you give it all at once" And
who would or could dispute the point with
the discerning child? Yes, mothers, tits

book. 1t is profitable for doctrine, for re-
proof, and for instruction, not only in
righteousness, but in knowledge, behaviour
and for everything needful, for time and
for eternity. Its brevity is the peculiar
charm, and it is prominently what child
rem most love.-T. \. W. in Gospel Visitor.

and doctrines, and sentiments, are contin-
ually changing, and this invisible law of
progress is pushing them onward and for
ward; the old wooden ship gives place to
the iron coated monitor, and the old flint
locks to the deadly needle gun. 1t is vain
for man to attempt to resist the flood tide,
which is carrying us forward and upward
to that plane of perfection which an all
wise and all merciful Creator designed we
should occupy. "There is tide in the af-
fairs of men which taken at the flood leads
on to fortune, and we must take the cur
rent when it serves or lose our venture"
As wise men, as good citizens, and as true
patriots, we shall devote our time, our
strength and our energies to helping for
ward the mighty Christian work, and to
the repairing and building up our govern
ment, whose strength has been exhausted
and powers crippled by the terrible strug-
gle we have just passed through. Let US as
people strive after perfection, and that
public virtue which rises far above all mean,
low and selfish things, and is absorbed by

Governor WELLS heads the party Of
vulgar ofensiveness and bloody proscrip-

Virginia cannot be trusted; that the Re-
publican party. e., the WELLS party
must rule in order to protect the "truly
loll" from persecution and that disfran-
eaisements and Disqualification should be
carried far enough to insure the supremacy
OF that party. Therefore, he sustsins the

ton.

Of the recent Convention who opposed the

SMITH will contribute his experience and

Gated by the Convention, and Messrs. JOHN

not, follow his example. 1t is time that
demands unity and cooperation with all
our might and soul. In times of profound
peace and smoothly flowing prosperity par
tisans sacrificed their individual opinions

A very determined Virginian, who is
well known for decided vein Of arbitrari-

ton that sit is better to be united than

the Importance Of harmony for success. A
triumph will give the power to correct on
error in the progress Of the struggle but
defeat gives not the power to carry out
just principles nor to correct erroneous
theories.
The Importance Of being united now can,
not be exaggerated. He is poor patriot
indeed who cannot surrender his opinions

say, however, that Castle was more himself

The Press ON the Action Of the
Convention.
From the Lynchburg News Colonel Wtthers's pa
perl. .a
The report of the result Of the delibera-
tons Of the Conservative Convention held
in Richmond will carry gloom and despon-
dency to many hearts. They will recognize
in the withdrawal Of our ticket an acknow-
ledgment of weakness which must perforce
disorganize and destroy our efficiency as o
political organization. A party without
leaders, in o political contest, is as helpless
as an army without officers on the field OF
battle.
We urge our friends who are at issue
with the majority of the Convention to per-
nit no feeling Of animosity or revenge to
prompt them to relax in their efforts to de-
feat the constitution as far as is possible.
If We cannot secure tolerab!y good one, let
US prevent the adoption of one tolerobly
bad. Let every man, then, determine to
direct his efforts from this day to the time Of
election in persuading the unregistered vo-
ters to enroll themselves, and then to bring
every man to the polls to vote down the
particular features which are so obnoxious !;
and then, if they will follow our example,
they will vote against the balance. Thus
far, at least, We can see our way clearly.
Let us, then, address ourselves to this, and
let the question Of candidates remain for
the present in allegiance.

From the Petersburg Iodex.
The Conservative Convention has met
and adjourned. II has made no new nomi-
nation in the place Of the former candi-
dates who have withdrawn. 1t trusts to
the good sense Of the people Of Virginia to
choose between Walker and Wells, between
the Underwood constitution expurgated and
the Underwood constitution with all Of its
enormities intact. Let the people Of Vir-
ginia no longer be led OFF by any
aide issues. These are the only tno
alternatives before them, and know
ing this fact, the Convention deemed
any positive advice superfiuous and an in
suit TO the patriotism and good sense OF
their fellow-citizens. The closing scenes

harmony. good feeling, and unanimity.
