it to be a thing of wondrous beauty; its
wings are a marvellous texture of fine net
work, embroidered with exquisite skill;
It's antenna are marvels of mechanism;
its eyes contain myriads of lenses of per-
feet symmetry, rejecting prismatic colors.

MIcHIGAN.-The agricultural college of
Michigan was established by the state in
1855, receiving an appropriation of $780,,
900, and tract of700 acres of land. In
1857 the state made an additional appro-
priation of $4,000, and continued to give
yearly sums for its support until it re-
ceived the land script from the general
government in 1854 100000 acres J the
proceeds of which, with state endowment
of 5000 acres of state (timber) land, will
render the institution self-supporting.-
This was the first state college of agricul-
ture put in operation in the United States
and although some of its earlier years
brought Encouragement, it has triumphed
over all opposition and is now one of the
most successful institutions of the kind in
the country. It's catalogue for 500 shows
70 students in attendance. Tuition is
free to all students in the state to those
from other states $50 per year; room rent
81 per year; board 1926 per week. Stu
dents are required to work upon the farm
or in the shops three hours each day, for
which they receive from 8 to ID cents
per hour, according to their fidelity and
ability. The faculty consists of presi-
dent, six professors, and five under officers
This college has returned about 81 per
cent. of its students to industrial pursuits.
1t is well equipped with means of illustra-
ton, and new buildings for additional ac-
commodations are in process of erection.

The business life ought to be instinct with
the religious life, and unconsciously we
ought to be doing right and seeking right

embodies the principles of art in his work
and because he mconsciously embodies
them, he paints truly. And it is only as
we thus embody the principles of truth
in our life will our work be truly done in
the business world and in all other places.

The enormous extent to which the putting

Strive to Enter in TO the Kingdom Of
God.

No man can enter into the kingdom of
God without strife No virtue can be
wrought out without strife. Our virtues
are like crystals hidden in rocks. Norman

the hammer and by fire. If there is any
thing that Is to endure the fear of death,
and the strifes Of the eternal world. it Is
that to which we come by suffering. And
We are to account nothing too heavy. moth
ing too sharp, nothing too long, in this
life that shall bring Us. at last. crowned
and robcd and sceptered, into the presence
of our own God to be participator, of his
immortality.
Men and brethren, We are standing on
the verge Of the unseen world All the
thunderous din of thi, life ought not to
fill our ears so but that We can hear the
Spirit and the Bride that say to every man,
through this golden air to-day, Come

sound, like that of the surf beating on the
shore from the broad Atlantic that all
day and all night sounds on, and i, never
still-that sound comes from the other
world, and says to Us, Beware, beware
of that punishment of sin which overhangs

learninq of Christ.

We speak not now of any specific creed
that Is necessary to make a man de-
nominationally Christian. A learner of
Christ must, of course. learn something
from Him, or he treats his Master with
contempt and forfeits the name of disciple
ship. The writer is anxious not to be
misunderstood here. No one can have a
more hearty contempt for that insane dis
tlnction now so frequently made between
religion and theology. If it mean that
there can be religion that has correspon-
ding to it no notions of the mind, then is
1t sheer nonsense. If, on the other hand,
1t is used to express the fact that there
may be speculative dogmas that have no
hold upon the life-or, as some plain per-
sons would express it, head religion in
which the heart has no share-then we
think that we have heard something like
this before. however profound and novel
the late propounders OF such an anti-dog-
matte dogma may imagine it to be. Of
ten has it been set forth in the unpretend-
ing Methodist meeting; and that,
too, with an JUNCTION. light, and a power
wholly unknown in an assembly of Boston
rationalists. We have heard it from the
lips of men rough and uneducated, not en-
dowed with elegance Of speech, but show

Ministerial! Sins.

To show how ill-founded are any re-
Elections on ministers as a class, because
one occasionally falls into grievous sin
the Rev. T. X. Beecher says There
were twelve apostles, and two of them fell
into very great scap3at. One-sixth part
of the apostles fell This is more in pro
portion than fall from ministers. As a
class, the record of ministers is better than
that of the twelve apostles in matters of
grievous detection.

How to Look at Sin.

Spurgeon says in one Of his sermons =
"Sin, somehow or other, desperate evil as
it is, will be overruled to display Gods
goodness. Just as the goldsmith sets a
foil around sparkling brilliant, even 50
the Lord has allowed moral and physical
evil to come into this world to cause his in
finite wisdom, grace, power, and all his
other attributes, to be better seen by the
whole intelligent universe. Let us look
at it in this light, and the next time We
see suffering we shall cry, Here is our
opportunity of showing what the love Of
God can do for these sufferers" The next
time we witness Astounding sin let us say,
Here is an opportunity for a great achieve
ment of mercy,

he Christians life.

The outward life of an ordinary Chris
tian, in times like our own, when govern
ment secures order, and opportunity for
all good is free and open to all, cannot be
much distinguished from that of the best
moral men, either in liberty or morality.
You cannot find very great difference be-
tween the outward and visible life of the
best men of the world and that of ordina-
ry Christians; for as the idea of seclusion,
that notion of past ages, passes away-as
a larger and better idea of Christian lib
erty dawns, and is carried into practice
men are no longer distinguished from their
fellow-men by some outward sign-by the
clothes they wear; by the way they walk;
or by external observances. If there are
no other differences between men than
these physical differences, that they put
on, then these themselves have no justifi-
cation ia man is not different from his
neighbor in any way that he can show by
his life and conduct, and must needs put
feather in his hat to signify that he is
Christian, he would better keep the feath-
er off. 1t is said that there must be dis
tinction between Christians and the world ;
but if there is no other distinction than
that, there had better not be that If
there is to be distinction, it should be in
this: that you are more generous; that
you are more just. The distinction is to
be one of a higher purity-a sweeter love
a nobler manhood; and if you have
not that, you have no right to put dis
tinction between yourself and another
man on the ground that you belong to a
church and he does not If the difference
between you and him is that you keep Sun
day and he does not-that is, that he
writes letters and you go to sleep. it Is
of no account If there Is no difference
between you and other people, except you
wear drab and they wear blue broadcloth,
or that you wear plain caps and they veal
| flowers, or vice versa. then there might as
well be No difference. Any such external
badges Of distinction are worse than use
less. They are deceiving. They are mis-
chievous There ought to be difference
between men Of the world and christian
men.-H ". Beecher

The Psalmist describes himself as one
of Jehovah's flock, safe under his care,
absolved from all anxieties by the sense of
His protection, and gaining from this con-
fdence of safety, the leisure to enjoy with
out safety all the simple pleasures which
make up life, the freshness of the meadow
the GOODNESS Of the stream. 1t is the most
complete picture of happiness that ever
was or can be drawn. 1t represents that
state of mind for which all alike sigh. and
the want of which makes life a failure to
most; it represents that Heacen which is
every where if we could but enter in, and
yet almost nowhere because so few of us
can. The two or three who win it may
be called victors in life's conflict; to them
belonge the regnum ct diadenad tataam.-
They may pass obscure lives in humble
dwellings, or like Fra Angelica in mar
row monastic cell, but they are vexed with

The way Of Christian life is a genuine
path laid out by Christ Himself We are
to do our duty gladly; the first duty first,
the rest duly in order, according to re-
quirement of occasion and circumstance.
Just as, when a sailor signs articles of
agreement for a voyage no days pro-
gramme is made out, but he expects to be
ready for every emergency, so are We bound
in agreement to Christ. We come into
such relationship of obedience to Him that
We shall more delight to think that He is

than we could, in bold independence, de
light in the Success of our most audacious
ambitions and plans of self-aggrandize-
