FIRMNESS OF RELIGIOUS PRINCIPLE. Frank Edwards, a young married man, em ployed in un English manufactory, was converted. His conversion was deep and genuine ; it reached both heart and life. The change was complete, and from being notoriously trifling and thought less, he became a proverb for cheerful gravity and serious deportment. Very delightffll was the first experience, of that young man. A good workman, be enjoyed con stant employment, with wages sufficient to procure the comforts of life. He had a thrifty wife, who was led to Jesus by his own influence. Their cot tage was the house of prayer. Religion, ptenty, health, and contentment dwelt with them; proba bly there was not another home in England more pleasant than that of the yoUng, pious mechanic, But piety is not an effectual shield to defend from trouble. It supports, gloriously supports, i the sufferer; but his path to heaven s appointed to lead through "much tribulation." It 'was thus with Frank Edwards and his happy fainily. In the midst of their prosperity, adversity looked in at their cottage door; poverty sat down at their table. Let us truce the cause of their trouble.—One day a lucrative order came, and all hands were set to execute it with the utmost haste. The week was closiog, and . the work was un finished. On Saturday evening the overseer en tered and said to the men, "You must work all day to-morrow." Frank instantly remembered the fourth Com mandment. He resolved to keep it, because he felt that his duty to God required him under all cir cumstances to refrain from labour on the 'Lord's day. Offering an inward prayer to God, he re spectfully addressed the overseer. "Sir, to-morrow is Sunday." know it, but our order must be executed." "Will you excuse me, sir, from working on the lard's day ?" "No, Frank, I can't excuse any one. The company will give you double wages, and you must work. " I am sorry, air, but I cannot work to-morrow." " Why not, Mr. Edwards? you know our ne oetviities,.and we offer you a fair remuneration." "'Sir, it will be a sin against God, and no ne cessity is strong enough, no price high enough, to induce me to offend my Maker." gg I am not here to argue 'the morality of the question,Yrank ; you must either work to-mor roW or be discharged." "I cannot hesitate, sir, - a moment; I bare re solved to please God. Oust what earthly price it way, I will keep his commandments." " Then, Mr: Edwards, if you will step into the 'odunthig room, I will pay you what the company owes you, and you will then leave the establish went." To say that Frank's heart did not shrink from ibiti trial would be to deny his humanity; but his faith came to his help . Castitukbimself on God, he gathered up his tools and entered the counting room. The overseer was extremely unwilling , to part with Frank, for he was a superior workman, and since his conversion, had been the most trusty man in the employment of the company. He, therefore, addresSed him . very kindly, while hand ing him his wages, " Mr. Edwarde, had you not better re-consider your resolution? Remember, work is scarce, we pay you high wages, and it is net often we require you to labour on Sunday." " Sir," replied Frank, " my mind IS fixed. I will net work on the Sabbath if I have to atarept." "Very well, sir," was the cool answer of the overseer, who not being , a. Christian, could not ap preciate the noble heroism.of Frank's reply. On reaching his humble cottage, the mechanic could not forbear a sigh, as the thought flitted across his mind, that possibly he might soon lose his home comforts. But the sigh was momentary. remembered the promise of God, and grew calmly peaceful. Entering his house, he said to his wife, " Mary, I am dischar. , ed I" "Discharged, Frank W hat has happened? 0 what will booonie of us i Tell me why you are discharged I" 13e calm, Mary i God will provide i I left the shop because I would not break the Lnrd's day. They wanted me to work to-morrow, and because I refused they discharged rue." Mary was silent. She looked doubtful, as if not quite sure that her husband was right. Her faith was, not so strong as Frank's, nor was her character so decided. In her heart she thought as thousands of fearful disciples would under simi lar eireeintstances, that her husband had gone too fee, B u t although she said nothing, Frank read her thnughts, and g r ieved over her want of faith. Sweet was the hour. of family prayer to Frank t o t eve 4eg; sweeter still was the secret devotion the' closet ; and he never closed his eyes with wore heavenly, calmness of spirit than when he sank tO r /sh , ep on that'eventful evening. fo!low i ng . we ek.brought Frank's character to a betlere test. All fits friends condemned him; even some members of his church said they thought he had gone beyond the strict requirements of duty. "It was well, " , they said; " to honour the Lord's day; but then a man like Frank Edwards ought to look at the wants of his family, and not strain at a gnat, and perhaps be to go to the workhouse." This was dastardly language for professors, but there are always too many of this class of irreso lute sight-walking disciples. Frank met them on all sides, and felt himself without sympathy. , - A. few noble, enlightened Christians, however, ad mired and encouraged him. Frank held to his purpose with a spirit worthy of a martyr. The cloud grew darker. Through the influence of his former employers, who were vexed because he left them, the other companies refised to eua, ploy him. Winter came on ivith its.frosts and storms. His little , stock of savings gradually dis appeared. Poverty stared them in the face. Frank's watch, Mary's silver spoons, their best furniture, went to the auction shop. They had to leave their pleasant cottage, and a small garret held the little afflicted family, and the slender remains of their cottage furniture. Did Frank regret his devotion to God ? No ! he rejoiced in it. He bad obeyed God, he, said, and God would take care of him. Light would break out of darkness: All would yet be well. So spoke 'his unyielding faith; his fixed heart doubted 'not. The blacker the cloud, the more piercing grew the eye.of bis triumphing faith. With his Nary the case was different. Her faith was weak, and, pressing her babes to her bosbrii, she often wept, and beut before the - sweepibg storm. The winter passed away, and Frank was still in the fiery fnroace, rejoicing r imwevcr r amidst the flames. Some friends offered him the means of emigrating to the T.Tilited States. Here was a light gleuin. He rejoiced. in it, and prepared to quit a place which refused him bread because he feared God. Behold him ! that martyr-mechanic on board the eatigrant,ship. Her white sails catch the fa; voring breeze, and with a soul &Hof hope ' Frank looked toward this western world. A short, pleasant passage, brought them to one of the At lantic cities. Here he soon found. that his faith had not been misplaced. The first week of his arrival found him not merely employed, but filling the station of foreman in the establishment of some extensive machinists. Prosperity now smiled on Frank, and Mary once more rejoiced in the possession of home comforts. They lived in a style tar better and more comfort able than when in the English cottage. " Mary," Frank would often ask, pointing to their charming little parlor, " is it not.best to obey. God?" Mary could only reply to this question with smiles and tears; for every thing around them said, "Blessed is that man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud. Surely he shall not be moved forever!' • But Frank's trials were not over: A similar claim for labour on the Lord's day was made upon him in his new situation. An engine for a rail road or a, steamboat was broken and must be re paired. "You will keep your men employed through to-morrow, Mr. Edwards, so that the en gine may be finished on Monday - morning," said the chief overseer. "I cannot do it, sir; I cannot break the Lord's day. I will work until midnight on Saturday, and begin directly after midnight on Monday morning. God's holy time I will not touch." "That won't do, Mr. Edwards. ' You must work your men through the Sabbath, or the owners will dismiss you." o Be it so," replied Frank. " I crossed the At lantic because I would not work on Sunday. 1 will not do it here." Monday came and the work unfinished. _Frank expected his discharge. While at work a gentle man inquired of him..-I wish you to go with Inc to , to take charge of my establishment. Will you go ?" " I don't know," replied Frank.. "If, as I ex pect, nay present employers dismiss me, I will go. If they do not, I have no wish to !ewe." This is settled. They intend:to dismiss you, and I know the reason. Lhonour you for it, and I wish you to enter my establiihment." Here twain our young mechanic saw the hand of God. again decision had again brought him into trial, and God had come to his:aid. The new situ ation for which he had just engaged was worth much more than the one he was to leave.. God had kept his promise.— The Ptah of Life. AN APT ILLUSTRATION It is well known that Thelwall thought it very unfair to influence a child's mind by inculcating any opinions before it should , come to years of discretion, so as to be able to choose for itself. In reply to this absurd notion, Coleridge says: "I showed him my garden, and told him it was my botanical garden. "How so," said he, "it is covered with weeds." "0," I replied, " that is because it, has not yet come to its age of discre tion and choice. The weeds, you see,. have taken the liberty to grow, and I thought kunfair in me to prejudice the soil toward roses and strawber ries." • We remember a man, of considerable property and intelligence who thought. Solomon was a fool and a bigot for exhorting parents to train up their children. He determined to let his come up, and the result was that after some twenty, years his house was very much like Coleridge's sarden. Eris wealth was squandered, his name dishonored, his heart broken, and his hair, prematurely gray, was brought in sorrow to the grave. Parents cannot learn too soon, or remember too constantly that their children are depraved, that only un ceasing watchfulness and care, with the blessing of God, can secure for them a virtuous character. To trust to innate innocency, or natural amiability, will lead to sad disappointment, it' not to utter ruin. • J . 1 24, loctitlantotto. OIL WELLS The Pittsburgh Christian _Advocate clescribes 'some - wonderful oil wells 'in Venango county, Pennsylvania.- The oil is , obtained by drilling the solid earth to various depths with three or four inch augers, or drills. When a vein of oil is, struck it begins•to bubble up at the surfae,e of , the .earth, and flows .a greater or less time without tbe , aid-of a purnp. • It is`thought that wells may be found which wattling flow continually. The Meadville editor characte rizes one owned'by D. Irl. Williams of Warren,O., as remarkable. It is bored to a depth of 143 f'et, and during the visit of the editor was yielding, without pumping, 12 barrels of pure oil per day. But after his return home he received subsequent and astonishing accounts of the Williams well, making it the greatest that has yet been discovered It says: seems the owners , of qbis well, -not =satisfied with receiving 12 barrels per day with — out pump ing, determined to bo . re still deeper,!and on Thurs day last, after boring two feet deeper, struck the very fountain head of oil. A gentleman who was present and witnessed it, informed us that when they removed the drill from the hole the oil spouted into the air to the height of eighty feet, and literally overflowed everythitm. Holes were dug in the ground to contain it, as barrels could not be had fast enough to hold it. It has con tinued to flow at the rate of over 200 barrels per day. 'The oil accumulated so fast that they at tempted to stop the pipe up for a time, but not withstanding all their 'efforts to do so, the oil managed to ooze out at the rate of about three barrels per hour. Such wells, however are exception. Usually after the oil flows bubblingly to the surface of the earth for a time, it ceases altogether. Then a pump is put in it, and it is lifted by suetion from its cavernous depths. At the well of Messrs. 13ornstlell & Co., they pump about twenty-five barrels,per day: When wells yield less than three barrels per day they are bored deeper, and if they do not improve are abandoned altogether. As the pump discharges its liquid stream into a vat or receiver, the water remains at the bottom, while Central Christian Herald a- ,, mltit-I-ItiLi .7 ftt . ,oittOilt the oil rises to the top. The water is then drained off through spigots below, and the oil through spigots above. It is already in a state of purity, ready for the market. The rage for sites in the oil region is immense. The #,gricultural interests of the county are almost entirely neglected, while fabulous prices are of fered for laud lying along Oil Creek. Yet ac cording to the Meadville editor, out of 500 wells on Oil Creek and vicinity not over 50 are paying expenses, and probably a much less number. Professor Hunter, of Allegheny College, in a note to Professor Hammet, says: "I saw the great oil well pouring out ten barrels per hour! Fact! As great au oil well as ever Job had, who said, .The rocks poured me out rivers of oil.' I 'dipped my foot in oil,' like Asher, only I did it literally." DEGRADED CONDITION OF THE BUSHMEN. On the flanks and in the• valleys of the Snow berg or Snowy mountains, which form the Nortb ern-boundary of the Cape, humanity is found in the very lowest state of 'degradation in which it bas ever been. exhibited. The Bosjesmaus or. Bushmen, two or three specimens of which race were brought to this country a few years ago, present an exaggeration 'even of the hideous form which characterizes the Hottentot. Hunger and cold, and nakedness, and every description of pri vatien_ and distress, have so dwarfed :their.,forms and depraved their minds, that they „present a spectacle painful to look upon. The statue of these pigmy inhabitants of the desert rarely ex -ceeds.fouy feet, or four feet two inches. Thieves by profession, cruell - and 'treacherous, without a fixed habitation, without 'society, without any sort of-common interest or govertnnent, and li ving Only from day to day, and from hand to - mouth, they were objects of loathing to neighbor ing tribes even helve Europeans had approached their. country. The most civilized of the Hotten tots and Kaffirs, more especially, waged a deadly ! war against them; and the'sight of one of these diminutive savages said .to •rouse the. passions of that race to uncontrollable fury.. Many years since, a Kaffir saw in the Government House at Cape Town, among the other domestics, a Busb than eleven years of age. With the impulse of a 'beast of prey he darted upou him, and transfixed him" with his aggesai. The little intelligence which the Bushmen pos sess is displayed chiefly in robbery and the chase. Rivalling the antelope in fleetness, and the men key iu agility, they accompany their wild, half famished savage dogs until they come within bow shot of their game, or run down the objects of their pursuit. Arrayed generally with a bow, a quiver full of arrows, a hat and a belt, leather sandals, a sheep's fleece, a gourd, or the shell of an ostrich's egg, to carry Water, these puny crea tures wander over their parched and• desolate plains, supported by a :food, which, unless when occasionally varied by the luxuries of the chase, consists entirely of roots, berries, ant-eggs, grass hoppers,' mice, toads, lizards, and snakeS.—They smear the arrows which they use for hunting and in war with a poison which, extracted 'from a bulb, and mingled with. venom drawn from the jaws of the yellow serpent, forms a compound of the most noxious character, for no creature was .ever pierced by 'a dart prepared with the deadly virus•and lived. • They have another poison more fearful in its "effects, which is extracted from a caterpillar. The agony produced by it, Dr. Li vingstone says, is so intense, that the person wound ed cuts himself with knives, and flies from hu man habitation a raving maniac. its effect on the lion'is equally terrible. He is beard Moaning in distress,' becomes furious, and bites trees 'and the 'etoUnd in his race: They, are said to be to 7 tally devoid of 'natural afieetion; 'and there are instances,' 'adds 'a missionary, (Mr. .'Kicherer,) who liyed for some time in their neighborhood; Hof parents throwing their tender offspring to the hungry lion who stood roaring before their cavern refusing to depart until some peace-offering. was made to him.' They shun the face of strategOs„ concealing themselves amongst rocks and ,hushes, and 'even :ihidiving, themselves over precipicvs rather than fall into the hand§ of their enemies: But they have been known,'when escape has been cut off, to fight with the most' 'determined reso lution. Religion they have none. They regard the thunder as the voiceof an angry deMon, and they reply to it, with curses and imprecations. Thetr language is inarticulate to all but them selves ; and there appears to be scarcely even a possibility of either civilizing or converting them. In the Northeast of Natal, where the Bushmen appear in Oleic loWest type, they reside in - holes of the earth scraped out with their nails, or, ra= ther,.witiv their claws. 'They will not receive kindnesS; says a close observer of theireharacter; or if they do, they only, make a return of trea chery, robbery and murder. No presents of cattle or corn, no inducementsto locate and settle; can Prevail upob them, to relinquish their wild life, or to make any 'apprach ionardS civilization.' The only satisfactory thonglit connected With them is the belief Of their gradual . estinceiun. They et iit in the meantime an awful proof of -the' depth of degradation to which humanity, in its gradual deterioration, can fall, and au instance of physi cal and moral degeneracy probably unparalleled in the world. 'EXTRAORDINARY DISCOVERY OF AN ANCIENT PAINTING- PRESS IN INDIA:: When Warren Hastings was Governor General of India, lie observed that in the district of Be - - - bares, a little below the surface of the earth, is to be found a stratum of a kind of fibrous woody sub stance, of various thicknesses, in horizontal layers. Major Roelifick, informed of this, went out to a spot where an excavation had been made, display ing this singular phenomenon. In digging some what deeper for the : purpose ,of further research, they laid open .a .vault, which on examination proved to be of some size, and to ,their astonish ment, they 'found a kind 'of printing press, set up 'in the vault, and on_it movable types placid as if 0 .

Everyinquiry was set on loot to ascertain the probable period at which such an instrument could • have - been placed there,,for it was evidently not of modern origin,.and from all the Major could collectjt appeared probable that the place had remained in the state in whiph it was found for at least .one thousand years.

Then, what is now the most flourishing part of America, was-as little known as the country around the Mountains of the Moon., It was not until 1.799 that the " Hunter of lien tuck," the gallant and adventurous Boone, left his home in North Carolina, to become the first settler of Kentucky. The first pioneer of Ohio did not settle until twenty years after this time. A hundred years ago Canada belonged to France, and the whole population of the United States did not exceed a million and a half of people. A hun dred years ago, the great Frederick of Prussia was performing those exploits which have made him immortal in military annalts, and with his little monarchy was sustaining .a single-handed contest with Russia, Austria and France—the three great powers of Europe combined. A. hundred years ago, Napoleon was not born, and Washington was a young and modest 'Virginia colonel: and the great events in the history of the two worlds, in which these great but dissimilar men took leading parts, were then scarcely foreshadowed." A hundred years ago, the United States were the most, loyal part of the British Etnpire; and on the political horizon no speck indicated the struggle which, within a score of years thereafter, este blighed the. greatest Republic of the world. A hundred years ago, there were but four newspa pers in America—steam enginea, had not been imagined, and rail-roade and telegraphs had not entered into the retnetestt=noneeption of man. When we came to look baels.atit through the vista of history, we find that to the century which has passedi, has been allotted-more itnportant events, in their bearing upon the happiness. of the world, than almogt.any other Wadi has elapsed since the creation.

He hangs the magnet on a string, and OH its becoming immobile, he brings one of the poles near the region where he sup poses the foreign body may be lodged; the devia tion or immobility of the magnet confirms or de stroys his suspicion.
