dawn Of that millcnnial day, when
man shall cease his brother-man to
slay?
But, however deep may be the
colors in which human iniguity and
wretchcdness arc painted, yet, let us
remember that under all circum-
stances, there has been some portion
of the sky to which man might turn,
and find some little star-some gencr.
GUS ray flight TO bid him hone; aye,
although sorrow and suffering and
death, were cntailed on our race il.
Adams fall, yet ar Eternal God has
set II blazing star in the sky to guide
us, if we will in safety, through all
the trials and tribulatiops Of earth.
Tried and faithful sentine's are
standing OH the wntchtower Of
creation, to warn the unwary of their
danger-to inspire the feeble with
strength.
Glcaf minds have ever been found
to comprehend the wrctchedncss Of a
fallen humanity noble hearts have
ever been found to respond in tender
sympathy to its terrible afilictions-
mighty energies have ever been excr.
ted to tear down the barriers which
separate man from his fellow-man,
and from his God. But. intrenched
as he is, in the almost imprcgnable
tortrcsscs of his selfshness and cor
ruption, it is indeed fearful and IN
equal struggle, which the great, and
the. wise and the good, have been
called upon to make. And yet, have
they faltcred by the way ? have they
refused to enter. the lists for the con-
tests? Where are Crammer and
Lat;ner and Widely, and the rest Of
that noble army ofmartyrs who yield
cd up their lives, on the altar Of dcvo-
ton, to those eternal principles which
shall, at last, elevate the aspirations
and the hopes Of man to that high
standard Of excellence which they
were intended to reach-bind lin in

hood with his fellow man, and bring
him back to his God?
They are gone, indeed but, all !!

noon-day glories of the unclouded
sun of human prosperity and happi-

enlightenment and progress Of the
nineteenth century, might be cropping
in the darkness Of scrmi- -barbarism

a Gentleman.


When you have found man, you have
not far to 60 to find a gentleman. You
cannot make a gold ring out of brass -
You cannot change Cape May crystal
to diamond. You cannot make gem
tleman till you first find man. To be
a gentleman is not sufficient to have had
a grandfather To be a gentleman does
not depend on the tailor or the toilet.
Blood will degenerate. Good clothes
are not good habits The prince Lee
Boo concluded that the hog was the only
gentleman in England, as being the only
thing that did not labor. A gentleman
is just gentleman no more, no less !;
a diamond polished that was first dia-
mond in the rough gentleman is
gentle. A gentleman is modest A
| gentleman is courteous. A gentleman
is slow to take offence, as being one who
never gives it. A coleman is slow to sur
mise evil, as being one who never thinks
it. A gentleman rcGnes bis taste. A
gentleman subducs his feelings A gen
tleman controls his speech. A gentle
man deems every other better than him
self. Sir Philip Sidney was never so
much of gentleman--mirror though he
was of English knighthood when,
upon the field Of Zutphen AS he lay in his
own blood, he waved the draught Of
cool spring water, that was to quench
his mortal thirst, in favor Of dying
soldier. ST. Paul describes a gentle
mand when he exhorted the Philippian
Christians: Whatsoever things are
honest, whatsoever things are just, what
soever things are pure, whatsoever things
are lovely, whatsoever things are Of
good report, if there be any virtue, and
if there be any praise, think on these
things" And DR.. Isaac Barrow, in
his admirable sermon on the callings of
a gentleman, pointedly says, ale should
labor and study to be a leader unto
virtue and notable promoter thereof;
directing and exciting men thereto, by
bis exemplary conversation encourage
ing them by his countenance and au-
thority; rewarding the goodness Of
meaner people by his bounty and favor
he should be such gentleman as Noah,
who preached righteousness by his words
aud works, before profane world. >

BLACKBERRY WINE. AS the black
berry season is at hand, we furnish
simple recipe for making the vino that
is as good rs any Of the complicated ones
requiring so many strainings, and such
a variety Of spices, and SO much time
in filing up the cask or jug during the
process of fermentation First, the
blackberries should be fresh and perfect
" ripe. Then to every gallon, well
bruised, add one quart of boiling water
Let the mixture stand for twenty hours,
stirring occasionally; then strain off into
a clean cask or stone jug, according to
the quantity, adding two pounds Of good
brown sugar to each gallon Of the liquor.
Cork tight Immediately, and let it stand
until October, and the wine will be per-
fcctly delicious The mace, nutmeg,
cloves, white Of eggs, and other things
so often recommended, are totally un-
necessary, and the wine by this simple
process is much the best.
If the maker Of the wine is too impatient
to wait until Ocio5aF, have Jug ST
aside to begin on IN a month, kaI il Will
be found that the October Jug, or eask,
will make the lips smack the most. The
best wine is made from berries when the
season is going out. They are sweeter,
and the temperature is lower.
