A Beautiful Sentiment.

DR.. Chalmers beautifully says: "The
little that have seen in the world and
know OF the history of mankind teaches
me to look upon their errors in. sorrow,
not in anger. When i take the history
Of one poor heart that has sinnea and
suffered, and represent to myself the
struggles and temptations II has passed
through--the brief pulsations of JOY ; the
tears of regret; the fcebleness Of pur'
pose; the scorn Of tho world that has lit
tic charity; the desolation Of the souls
sanctuary, and thrcatning voices within
health gone happiness gone--I would
fain leave tile erring soul Of my fellow
mau with Him from whose hands II
came"
