Habits.

No man is allowed to plead a bad
habit in excuse for bad conduct. 1t is
no palliation, but rather an aggravation
of the ofense that it was the result of
habit. No man would think of pleading
the habit of killing people as palliation
for the crime ofmurder. No robber,
however stepped in his sin, would think
of going before court Of. justice, and
saying: "That I have been 80 in the
habit of robbing that it has become a
second nature to me, and cannot help
robbing." Yet one says: II have
formed the habit of swearing, and now /
have lost all self. and am no more
responsible for taking the name Of the
Lord in vain" This pretended excuse
for ain is as false as it is frequent. 1t is
lie and sham. Habit cannot convert
black into white, nor make sin innocent.
Man is responsible for his habits, and
when they enslsve him he is responsible
for the crimes to which these vile habits
lead him.
Laws, human and Divine, hold man
responsible for crimes committed during
state of into1ication, and no pleading
of the person that he. had become habit.
uated to drunkenness will ever palliate
the ofense committed against human
law.
The responsibility is in the formation
of the habit. A man may form the hab-
it of peryerting truth until it is much
easier TO tell lie than the truth, but
this facility and disposition to deal in
falsehood cannot be pleaded as an exten.
uation of the sin. I once approached a
young man whom I bad accidentally
heard take the name of his great Creator
in vain. he said he had formed the
vicious habit when quite q boy. and now
sheoften swore unconsciously. l besought
him to free himself from habit so
vicious and SO unworthy Of q gentleman.
The question here arises: What is the
slave Of a vicious habit to dof The an.
swertis By the help Of God free himself.
Make no compromise. Let him de-
clare independence and hold to the de-
claration: Die or conquer. With q
strong will, a lofty courage, a high aim,
and fixed, answering purpose, deter
mine to be a man, free and;untrammeled,
with Gods seal on the brow and his i'm.
age in the heart Central Methodist.

May 2S.-Oh, dear me! what day we
have had of it, and how utterly all my
newborn confidence in the count has been
scattered to the four winds Of heaven! On
awakening from the sleep into which her
husband had lulled her, Nine. Di Yiana
declared that she felt SO much better that
she would have cup of tea, and after
wards some of the strawberries the count
had brought her. made the tea myself,
and she seemed to enjoy it, and the straw
berries as well. Then she took q dose OF
her medicine before retiring to rest, and
also glass of mineral water, which she
prefers to plain water, or even to Apol.
inaris or St. Galnlier water. l put all
these particulars down, trivial as
they may seem, because | want to
be sure that remember everything just
as it occurred. For, two hours later, the
countess was taken so violently i'll that
thought at one time she would not live
till morning. The old French doctor who
is attending her was summoned in hot
haste, and he remained with her for some
hours. But he could in no way account
for her sudden seizure. The remedies
that he applied took effect after while,
and I think that she is resting easily now,
though she looks like death itself as she
lies back on the white pillows, her face as
white as they, her eyes closed, and hel
long fair hair that she took, yesterday

left, and 1 mean to give them to our con

then know what to think.
