"A DIFFERENCE HERE AND THEREAFTER.
The God of the Bible is not equally
pleased with wrong doing and right
doing, with wicksdness and holiness.
with obedience and disobedience to His
law; and when we meet Him in the
world of spirits, We shall find it true that
He has not there appointed the same
situation, the same condition and the
same destiny for the righteous and the
wicked. There is moral difference
between them here. and there will be
q corresponding difference between
them heFeafter.-Ihdep fldents
An INsREsIBLE CONSCIENCE.
1t is bad to have an insensible con-
science, bat even then persen may be
by shame. shamelessness is
z much lower stage than insensibility;
but there is q state in which the wretch
is often better pleased with cute wicked
ness than virtuous people are with their
virtue. This state, and this only.
furnishes an ideal OF the devil, and 4
those who deny the existence of such
being are sufficiently answered by
pointing to men, and sometimes to
yomen, who correspond to this
escription.-New York Christian Aduo-
ate. (Methodist.1 '
TIE EESREw RELIGION.
The Mosaic law is the basis Of all law

Noses and religions Of ths world would A
esuIt in confusion. The Jewish re- 1
igion is the one around which all the
,ther religions revoke. The religion of n
doses was the religion of all. There is b
Iothing of that separation of religion v
nd morality which characterizes some p
Ithers. The Jew is always in the atti- g
ude of expectation While other ma "
ions have become tired of their gods a
be Jews faith is unmoged and his a
