The Chinese are clever, cultivated

are perfectly satisfied with the dull

cts. They are practical folk, and so
long as things are pretty comfortable
they do not see the use of vain aspi
rations. They are content with
domestic system which an imagina-
tive and romantic mind could not
endure. They are happy in total
absence of religion, becadSe they do
not perceive that religion brings cash,
and they feel no inward prumptings
toward the spiritual life. They have
a scheme Of morality which if carried
out, must unquestiOnably deserve a
very high place among the attempts
10 govern the conduct of the animal
whom Swift acutely describes as not
rationale but TdtiOHiS capdr, by the
pure principles of reason. Here again
he Imagination is wanting; the high
est kind of intellect, which cOnnOteS
quick and vivid imagination, de
mands something more than a moral
system as the ground of conduct. Let
it be Theology, divine life, or an
enthusiasm for the great human fam
ilY, there must be a sentiment for the
imagination to cl0the with com
pelling beauty and strength. This
only sentiment the Chinese possess,
he only trace of the power of imagi
nation, is in their reverence for their
ancestors, and their feeling that what
,oever a man does brings either re-
n0Wn or shame upon his forefathers.
This is a more powerful ennohling
sentiment than is generally perceived
it is the pivot of Chinese life but
it is too large and complex a suhjec

A Ghild's Morning Prayer.
From the New York Observer. ]

About ten years ago there was a
little girl, six or seven years ola, So
journing for time in a city apart from
her parents. She was regular attpn-
dant at the Sabbath school, and one
day she told her teacher that she
wished to have a conversation with
her minister. He was Informed of
the fact and called upon the child,
when she told him She wished him ;o
find her a short and appropriate
morning prayer. She said that the
prayer Now | lay me down to
Sleep" etc., did for the evening, but
she wanted one like it for the morn
ing. The minister promised to graft
Lily her r6oueSf and took his leave.
A few days after, and before he had
his promise, the little one
was stricken with scarlet fever, and
the minister called upon
her, she died without seeing him.
He then set about the task and de-
'ided to publish the facts and call for
original prayers suitable for the
morning, The case was published
IN one or two leading papers, and
taken up by others, spread all over
this country and parts of England.
In response, hunereds Of prayers
were sent in, and it WAS the intention
If the minister to publish Il little book
full account of the case
and all of the prayers, but it has
never been done, or had not been
when the writer met him. The best
one of the whole collection is given
below, and fill a want that has been
Ie't 10y many parents and children:
