With the pride of his fifty race,
And In courtly language praises
My radiant beauty and grace

=" And note that my noble sutton,

Uses only the force of money
Never the lever of love.

The Young Widow.

She was cunning-sometime witty,
Free and easy, but not bold;
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young, and not too old.
Half inviting, half repellent,
Now advancing, and now shy;
There is michel in her laughter.
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature,
She is schooled in every art;
She has taken her diploma
AS the mistress of the heart
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile;
Oh, maid is sometimes charming,
Buta widow all the while
Are you sad? oh, then, how serious
VIII her pretty face become
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Saddened, friendless, fearful, dumb.
Are you mirthful How her laughter,
Understanding, will ring out!
She can lure, and catch, and play you,
AS an angler does trout.

Who are plotting. deep and wise;

Reform in the Greek Church OF
- RUSSIA 4. Z a. hel...- =

An imperial ukase just issued BY
the Russian Gar, abolishes the here
ditary feature Of the Russian priest
hood. It was natural consequence
of such an Institution that the priests
and their families multiplied entirely
too fast for the church or the govern
ment to make provision for them,
either as to support or educational
training. Hence thousands Of them
were both very poor and very ignor7
ant. They divided to make places
for them until the parishes became
too small altogether to afford the
priest a living, lATsos s6a 10
All this will now be changed, as
all the parishes are to be re-arranged,.
and priests assigned according to a
fixed ratio Of population, facilities Of
communication between villages, the
moral condition of parishioners, etc.
In future the priestIy office cannot be,
held under the age of thirty years,
and thus the priest will be a man of
mature years and have a better. assn
rance Of a living from his parish, so
that his educational trainingWill be
more Of an object, as.a as sqa.ilsa
The priesthood Of the Greek
Church has hitherto ranked very low
~ 2 Z
in Europe. 1t bears no comparison
in intelligence with the priesthood
Of the Latin or Protestant churches.
and if religion were free in Russia.
the Greek church would not long.
stand against the superior antago-
nists it would have to encounter
Marriage was an essential feature of
the hereditary character Of the priest
ly office. We, read in the, foreign.
journals that although the sons of
priests are no longer. to be q, neces-
sity priests like their fathers, yet.
they will be mobiles, and will contin-
ue to have the benefit of the educa-.
tional establishment designed for the
clergy. This will deprive the. re-
form of. much Gifts efficiency, as it
will saddle these establishment with.
the burden of educating thousands.
of men who WilInot be, priests, and.
must necessarily take their attention.
from their proper bushes of theolog-
ical seminaries. E Hence the work Of
raising the theological character Of
the Russian church must of necessity
be slow and tedious. At present
the Russian priesthood is totally
unworthy the magnitude of such a
church. ,35a 5~vG5s lji@tu iahE
