] have just been reading q sermon cn.
titled THE CHURCH AND TEMPERANCE"
in which occur several paragraphs on
communion wine have often wondered
that So little interest has been telt in this
subject, and think the time has come
when general attention should be called
TO it. The sermon says that the church
might clear it' position and strengthen its
influence on the subject of temperance
by banishing from the communion table
the wretched article OF commerce called
wine; and indeed by refusing to employ
any thing but the pure uniermented juice
of the grape at that most solemn service.
| do not believe that pure wine. that OF
commerce, - Gntoxicating) can be had in
this country. A very large part of it is n
miserable fabrication produced in this
country. with what is called free spirits
as basis. with coloring and hayoring to
suit the name, while the same thing is
true of imported wines.
Formerly, there was some difficulty in
avoiding the use Of these so called wines,
because u pure. uniermcnted wine could
not be easily obtained, if at all But
now. genuine article is made ON large
scale, rs know personally. from the
best grapes. and can be easily sent by
mail to any part OF the country, at a
moderate cost when compared with the
so.caled imported wines shall be
very glad TO put any parties in the way Of
obtaining this wine, which may be relied
upon to be the pure product OF the grape
and nothing else.
There are many people who caunot e.
silly be persuaded that alcoholic drinks
are pernicious. 50 long rs they are em-
plOyed at the communion table, and the
instances are not few OF the shocking re-
lapse Of reformed men, in consequence
OF their takin. these liquors. One case
occurred in this city, where reformed
man returned to his former habits three
times; he was re-admtted to The church
each time, aIlef suitable probation and
after the third time he ceased to taste this
drink at the communion, and lived many
years after, consistent. ChrisIia ian life.
The sermon TO which | have alluded
says There is nothing in the require
ments Of the original institution which
would oblige the most rigid Iileralist to
use fcrmented liquor, rather than unler-
mented, at the Lords supper; why then
make that blessed ordinance posi-.
bic occasion Of stumbling to any, which
ought to be one of the highest ediiaca-

RISE HIGHER. When birds arc flying

il they 1y low, some are wounded, and
some swerving sideways, plunge into the
thicket, and hide themselves. But you
will find that Immediately after the first
discharge OF the gun, the flock rise and
fly higher. And at the next discharge
they rise again, and fly still higher; and
not many times has the plunging shot
tninned out theil number, before they
lake so high level it is in vain that the
fowler aims mt them, because they are
above the reach OF his shot.
When trouble comes upon you, fly
higher; and il they will strike you, fly

so high in the spiritual life, that sour al
fections will be set on things so entirely

CUTTING GLASS AND STONE BY SAND
BLAST At meeting OF the Mas.achu-
setts Institute of Technology. held on
the 10th OF March, nm Interesting paper
was presented by Mr. James Ilamblctt,
upon Tighman's process for etching up
on glass and cutting stone by blast Of
sand. For this purpose the glass or
stone is simply covered with paper, cut
or perforated in the desired pattern, and
then exposed to the sand blast, which
cuts the material wherever the surface is
entirely exposed in 4 very delicate and
wclldeiined manner, the elasticity OF
the paper apparently preventing the
action OF the sand on the covered parts.
We have not room for the details OF
the process by which the sand is direct
ed against the glass; bu. there seems no
doubt that the method promises an i'm
portant revolution in decorative and
constructive art. In eight seconds a
pane Oh tpIllllOH WlHbON HlsNS1 NtliI bC
ground or roughened, while ordinary
sunk letters in marble an inch and a
hall long, can he cut out in less than
minute
Attention was called by Dr.. Kneeland
to the agency OF 4 similar principle in
nature, and reference made 10 the OBJ
servations of Mr.. Blake upon the action
of the drifting sand on the granite at
San Bernardino Pass, in California.
According to Professor Wyman, glass
windows Oh Cape Cod sometimes have
holes worn in them by the drifting
sands blown by the winds. Similar
agencies exist in Australia on large
scale, and specimens Of hard rock cut
into fantastic shapes are not unircquently
found in miucralogical coIIeciionS.--
