A Misguided Book Agent.

A book agent entered the open door of a
snug Pttsford cottage, not long since, and
nodding to a trim, bright-looking woman
who sat sewing by the window, commenced
volubly to descant on the merits of great
work which he was for the FIRST time giving
mankind an opportunity to purchase. II
was universal biography, cookbook, die
tionary, family physician, shorthand in.
structor, and contained, besides, detailed
history Of every important event that has
transpired in the world, from the apple in
cident and Adams fall to Credit Mobilier
aud the fall of Congress. The work con.
tained five thousand chapters all with run
ming titles. The agent, after talking on the
general excellence of the volume about five
minutes, commenced on the headings OF
those chapters, and as the woman did not
say word to interrupt him. he felt that he
was making conquest, and be ratified away
so that she shouldn't have a chance to say
no. II took him nearly half and hour, and
as he breathlessly went on the sweat started
on his forehead and he made convulsive
grasps at his collar, and when he finished
he had hardly strength enough to put on a
bewitchng smile and hand her his ready
pen wherewith to subscribe her name in the
order book. She took the pen, but instead
of putting her autograph on his list she
lifted a scrap Of paper from her work-box,
and wrote in plain letters, line defe and
dum.' lie said not word but the unut-
terable things that be looked, as he turned
to the door, would fill library.

Some one has said that three things
are necessary for great speech-a great
theme, great occasion, and great man.
A preacher always has great theme, but
a great occasion can only grow out of the
mental and moral attitude Of his audience.
No man can do his best, preaching in an
empty house aud the cffeo, Of indifferent
listeners is often even more depressing than
empty benches. No one who is accustomed
to teach Sunday school class has + led
to note the painful and almost paralyzing
influence of listless and inattentive scholars.
We demand that the preacher shall declare
the truth with earnestness with tenderness,
with affection but how can man be earn
est, or tender, or affectionate towards peo.
pie, many of whom are as insensible to
what he is saying as blocks of wood ? We
have known speakers who declared that
they were obliged to select men, here and
there in an audience, who gave attention,
and preach to them, in order to feel that
they were preaching to living beings, and
thus avoid the depressing influence of an
inattentive audience. ce.-Ezaminer.

Emotion in Religion.
ny REV. A. L. STONE, d. D.


1t seems to me that we want more
Christian sensbilily, more tenderness, more
feeling; a breaking up Of the fountains Of
cur heart, like the breaking up Of the
fountains Of the great decp;" a melting
that shall dissolve all our hardness and
coldness into tears.
This overlooking sensibility, this tender
and weeping state, suits well every relation
and duty of our Christian life. Certainly,
it fits our return to Christ as those who
have wandered away from him in paths Of
worldliness and forgetfuness. Think of
coming back to him to hear him say,
have somewhat against thee !" carrying 10
our consciousness the self reproach have
not lived so near to Jesus as / ought.
have not been true to my covenant with
him. My love for him has been cool, my
zeal languid, my witness false, my interest
in his cause scarce above Indifference, all
this on our hearts, without breaking down
into tenderness and weeping
This weeping state suits even the ioy of
restoration No one has ever had any very
great joy who has never known what it is
to weep tears Of JOY" Could you come
to Jesus and receive full and fresh for
giveness; feel his hand laid upon your
head in welcome and benediction; hear
him say, "Go in peace, thy sins are forgiv-
en- thee :" sing that song, " Love | much
I'm much forgivenl' and yet keep the
tears back
Such deep sensibiity suits we'll the offer
ing Of earnest prayer. We can not wrestle
with God for great blessings with heart
cool and calm, whose pulses are unquicken-
ed, whose tenderness is slumbering.
Especially is this tenderness of heart
our indispensable preparation for winning
souls. Tell a man that he is in danger of
losing his soul, and tell him as though it
we're fact which you bore philosopbicaly,
and not as though it were grief that was
breaking your heart, and you will not move
him except to anger and contempt. You
can say anything to man without offsnse,
which you say through tears. If you fling
your arms around his neck, and weep upon
him, be can not resist you. You can not
go hopefully on your errand of salvation
unless you 60 tenderly. Love and longing
don't use cold words.

If ever a man was in real right ear,
nest it was Christ If ever man looked
on life, and on the world, and on the sins
and sorrows of men in their reality, and
spoke as one that did, he did So No one
that heard him could ever feel that he was
triaing with him, and that he was mocking
his misery, and that he was playing with
his disease. He spoke as one who felt
himself in the presence Of awful powers Of
death and woe who knew all, aud in the
depths of his soul felt ALL This the COM
mon people loved; this they welcomed as
the thing they needed, the only thing that
met their case. Therefore they heard him
gladly. Let his servants go and do like
wise, and they will hear them gladly, too.

When the sun arises there is light.
Why, | do not know. There might have
been light without the sun, and there might
have been sun that gave no light, but God
has been pleased to put these two things
together--sunrise and light. So whenever
there is prayer, there is blessing. There
might have been prayer without blessing,
for there is in the world of wrath (; and
there might have been blessing without
prayer, for IL often is sent 10 some who

The most accommodating man we ever
saw, says the editor Of the Danbury Neins
was he who was the captain Of steamship
which piled between New York and Port
Royal during the war. One day soldier
lost his cap overheard, and went to the
captain about it, The old gentleman said
it was impossible to stop the vessel to re-
cover it, but he kindly offered to mark on
the rail where il went overheard, and get
il when he came back. We saw him make
the mark ourselves, and well remember
that in all that motley crowd there was not
a single dry eye.
