Judge from revelation IN the Bible, is to
live distinctively manly and humane life ;
aud when he tries to transcend the limits
put upon him by his human state, he is apt
to fall into and thereby ceasing to be hu-
man he assuredly attains not TO Deity, and
no third state OF conscious life IL known to
man except that of the brute. L. II.

family devotions were always large in

charm and joyousness, an uplifted heart
and kindling eye, to the general character
of his special life, and which made him so
ready to love, and wherever he was known,
so beloved"
II may not, siu-de1ed,
Claim my birthright as child,
suffer 1t that to Thee
AS q hired servant be;
Let the lowil-st task be NINE
Grateful, so the work be Thine.
II there oe some weaker one,
Give me strength o help him on;
II a binder soul there be,
Let me guide him nearer Thee.
MAKE my mortal dreams come true
" 18th the work fain would do;
ClOthe with lire the weak int nt;
Let me be the thing meant;
Let me md In Thy employ
Peace, that dearer is tnan 10y
out OF self TO love be led,
And TO heaven acclimated
Until all things sweet and good
seem my natural haoitude,
Whittier.
