Religious.
CHRISTIAN CALNINEss.

1t were worth ones while to be IL Quaker,
perhaps, just for the sweet serenity which
characterizes the sect. We know II score of
Quaker matrons, any one of whom would
be II living sermon in II score of homes we
could name,-a living sermon, with Calm
ness rs text. Dear, good Quaker mothers
would there were more such
Calmness and equanimity ought to be part
of every ones religion, even rs it is part of
the Quakers. II dare no more fret said
John Wesley, Ethan to curse and swear"
One who knew him well said that he never
saw him low-spirited or fretful in his life.
He could not endure the society of people
who were of this habit. He says of them -
ITO have persons mt my ears murmuring
and fretting at everything is like tearing the
flesh from my bones. BY the grace of God
am discontinued ut nothing. | see God sit
ting on his throne and ruling I'LL things"
If every one was of John Wesley's spirit.
it would revolutionize the world. Christians
lose all their wayside comforts and dishonor
the Master by their fretfulness over little
troubles. Some who can bear the great sor-
rows of life with II martyrs faith and patience
are utterly overthrown by the breaking of a
vase. We have seen men in IL fever of i'm
patience even anger, over the loss of Il shirt
button, the nisaying of n cane, or fifteen
minutes delay Of dinner, who have stood by
the graves of dear ones gone and made no
sign
Men and women have come to think, some
how, that Christian Calmness finds its test
hour only when some great aflliction brushes
down. There never was n more sad mis-
take. Christian Calmncss has meet opportri-
nifty for exercise, daily and hourly. 1t is the
little trials that test it most. In every fami-
ly circle much is happening that demands its
perpetual presence and influence. Necessa-
rily II cultivated virtue, in nearly all cases,
let us see that it is more thoroughly cultiva-
ted. So shall our homes be more beautiful
our happiness more perfect, our Christianity
more generous and loving we had almost
said more saving.

Must it not now be one of the greatest mis-
cries for man to have IL perpetual hunger
upon him, and to have his appetite grow
fiercer and sharper amidst the very objects
and opportunities of satisfaction? Yet so it
is usually with men hugely rich. They have.
and they covet; riches flow in upon them,
and yet riches are the only things they are
swered, and while they are answered they
are enlarged; they grow wider and stronger,
and bring such IL dropsy upon the soul, that
the more it takes in the more it may, just
like some drunkards, who even drink them
selves athirst, and have no reason in the
world for their drinking more but their hav-
ing drank too much already.

LITTLE THINGS.

tie charities fly farthest, and stay longest on
the wing; little lakes are the stillest little
hearths the fullest, and little farms the best
titled. Little books are the most read, and
little songs the dearest loved. And when
Nature would make anything especially rare
and beautiful, she makes it little-little
pearls little diamonds, little dews.
Agars is II model prayer; but then it is II
little one, and the burden of the petition is
for but little. The Sermon on the Mount is
little, but the last dedication discourse was
an hour. Life is made up of Titles; death is
what remains of them all Day is made up
of little beams, and night is glorious with lit
tie stars.

preston of great wrath and Indignation, at II

gold may be drawn into wire that would

long life, and form the brightest and most
glorious spot in it.
