ghe gadi fag The Two Alabaster Boxes. "A woman in the city, which was a sinner, brought an alabaster box of ointment, and anointed His feet." "Being in Bethany, .there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard, very pre cious and she brake the box, and poured it on His Head." WHEN Thou,. in patient ministry, Didst pass a stranger through Thy land, Two costly gifts were offer'd Thee, And both were from a woman's hand. To Thee, who madest all things fair, Twice;fair and precious things they bring, Pure;sculptured alabaster clear, Perfumes for earth's anointed king. Nan's hasty lips would both reprove, _Ono for the stain of too much sin, One for the waste of too much love; Yet both altaird Thy smile to win. The saint who listan , d at Thy feet, The sinner sinners scorn'd to touch, Adoring in Thy presence meet, Both pardon'd and both loving much. Thus evermore to all they teach, Man's highest style is much forgiven," And that earth's lowest yet may reach The 1/ighest ministries of heaven. They 'tea& that gifts' of' eiastliest'priee From hearts sia.beggar'd yet may pour; And that love's costliest sacrifice Is worth the love, and nothing more. Love is the true economist, Her weights and measures pass in heaven; What others lavish on the feast, She to the Lord himself huth given. " Lore is the true economist, She through, all else to him bath sped, And unreproved His feet hath kiss'd, And spent her ointments on His head. Love is the true economist, She breaki the box, and gives her all; Yet not one precious drop is miss'd, Since on Ms head and feet they fall. In all her fervent zeal no haste, She at ills feet sits glad and calm ; In 41 her lavish gifts no waste, The broken vase but frees the balnr. Love is the truest providence, Sineirbeyond time hei•goldis good, Stamp'd for man's mean, three hundred pence." , With Christ's " She hath done whatshe could." Love is the best economist In what she sows and what she reaps; • She lavishes her all on Christ, And in Ills all her being steeps. The Three Wakings and other Poems. HALLOWED BE TRY NAME. LET us try to understand the things for Which we pray when we say, " Hallowed be thy name. We should not be content 'to repeat this prayer every night and every morning without knowing the meaning'of the words, and what things we ask God to do. This fetter to heaven 'consists of two pages ; on one of which we ask God to glorify his own name, and bless the world ; and on the second page we ask him to take care of us, to ,gave us our daily bread, forgive us our sins, and keep us from all evil.. Last week we saw why we should ask the best things first. istow we will inquire what these best things are. They are so connected, like the breath and body and actions of a man, that unless God's mpne is hallowed, his kingdom cannot come; and unless his kingdom come, ..his will cannot be done on earth as it is in heaven. But yet we will remember the ex planation of, them better if we talk ,of only one'ar a time, and begin first with what the. Lord has put foremost : Hallowed be thy name. What is God's name? Has he more names than one? What is the use of a name? The use of a name is to make a person'known, to distinguish one person from another. Some 'people have several names, and almost every moon is known by different names to differ ent peeple. Your neighbors call your fa ther Mr. Brown, or Mr. Smith ; your cou sins call him, uncle William. You call him, simply, father. A letter comes to the post office, which does not steak a word at all, but there is writing on the back which refire knits his 'name. A lady comes to the door, ,and sends in her card to your mother. There is no writing on the card, but on looking at it she sees the photograph of a friend, and knows her name from the picture. When the celebrated painter, Apelles, visited the workroom of another painter, in a distant city, and did not find him in, he would not tell the boys in the room his name, bat took up a pencil and drew a line so beautiful, that as soon as the other painter came in and saw it, he said, "That is the hand of Apelles." God is known by his handiwork in the things he has made, and by his likenesses in his ()Wren of mankind, and by his letters in the'i'ble, as well as by the names, Lord, and (rod. It is a great sin to abuse any thihg,bY which God makes himself known. Yon hear a great many, wicked boys and girls cursinikandswearing; and taking God's nattielill vain. Perhapi they do net know that God had eta', " nou shalt not take the name okt4Q, O. thy God in vain, for the Lord .34,1 not hold' guiltless that taketh ire in ain."

When we p 9 0 1; roWed„ be thy mine, we ask lig ev nmay - learn to worship and reve rence-Gcd. Should not we ourselves then learrt to do so ? And ought we not to try to bring all our friends to church and Sabbath school that they may worship him also. The glorious angels in heaven worship God with great reverence. They put their wings be fore their faces when they go to worship, and they bay, Holy! Holy! Holy' is the Lord of hosts ! The whole earth is full of his glory. When OM of God's little children thus 'learns to reverence God in church and Sab bath school, he will have a great respect for the beautiful things God has made. God has taken wonderful pains to, paint the flow ers; and make them so lovely; and his little children will not wantonly trample them down, or tear them up_; to throw , them 'away. If you had a microscope to look at the wing of a butterfly, you would find that God has covered it over with beautiful gold and silver feathers, so little that a thousand of them would not be as large as one of the feathers in the wing of Dick, your little canary bird; and you would 'say : "My Father put each Of these little feathers there, to please this little butterfly, and help it to fly about the flowers, and get its food. Fly away, and be merry, little butterfly; I wont pull the feath ers out of your pretty wings !" lie will think that God has taken wonderful pains'to make the flutes in the throats of the little birds, and , to send them very young to sing -ing school to learn to ,sing Psalms to him ; and he will say, " Sing as loudly as you can, little birds, I wont throw stones at a little bird that sings Psalms to my Father 'in heaven!" Did you ever see a picture of God, chil dren ? I did. I'see several pictures of God now. These little children are pictures of God. Children are like their father, and we are all like our Father in heaven. Not that God has hands and feet, or can be cold, or hungry, or hurt like us ; but we can think— .do things like. Hinrand ho has given us some, of his dominion, over the, birds, and beasts, and fishes, and made them afraid of us. If it were not so, the lions, or the horses, or even the wasps, and tho ants, could chase us into the sea. But because God has made every man, black or white, poor or rich, old or young, in his own image, he will have all creatures respect and reverence every human being, and will , require the life of man of every beast, and of every man, who kills another. Would you think it right for.some one to throw mud upon yoiir father's pieture ? Every sin defaces the image of God in man, and makes God, very angry with those who teach people to sin. "If any man defile the temple of God, him will God destroy., .Gad is pleased with all tho;6 . who try to Cleanse the dirt and dust off his pictures, and frame and glaze them, and hang then? up, so that the lirorld May see lowgood and bokutiful God is. Our good- missionaries in hslia, have picked up sixty pictures of God out of the dirt,—sixty little orphan children,—and are trying to cleanse them from the;dirt and vice of heathenism, and to frame them, into a Christian school, -and glaze theme over and, protect them with the diacipline the Chits tian Church, and are praying God to Make them; now creatures,- in Christ Jesus, and teach them to live for the purpose of doing good; like Jesus, who always went about doing good, and like God himself, for the word God means, The person who is good, and who •does good. Let us always revelence and respect every thing by which God makes himself known to us. The more of God' we see in anything, or In 'any person, let us respect itetho more. Then we can pray that other people also may know, and love, and reverence our Fa ther in Heaven, This is what we mean when we pray, Hallowed be thy name. A WORD TO Ojit YOUNG NEN AND SOME present are blessed with prudent mothers—with-mothers who are as watchers in the home—who with an eagle's eye see threatening mischief, and with a giant's strength build bulwarks against it. TO all thus favored we say, highly prize such / 110 - thers. Speak not a word that shall fly as a fiery dart into their souls. Do nothing that shall increase their cares, or arouse their fars, or wound their sensitive spirits. Obey them so long as you are under the parental roof; -and when you leave father and mother, listen to a -Mather's advice with 'a; reverent spirit. Account a prudent mother a precious ,gift from God, and for the possession of all the advantages which this gift affords give God praise. When enumerating your mer cies, never, fail to make mention of your mo ther. The day is coming when death will part you. You may be taken from her, but the probability is that she will be removed from you. Keep this prospect seriously be fore you. Others before me have been bereaved' of prudent mothers. If Children live to appre ciate a mother, the wound which her death inflicts never completely heals, A. mother is like the central orb in a planetary system— she keeps the children together . by drawing them unto herself. She is like the pole-star • to a fleet at sea. The vessels may lose sight of each other, but they follow the guidance of the celestial light. The loss of a true mother is severely:felt. - Still you may in measure retain her; by remembering and by applying her lessons, as given alike by ex ample and by the words of the lip; Although she is gone,-still keep her birthdaystill cele brate her wedding day ; and when you are able, visit her grave. Every daisy upon that mound, and every blade of grass,. or every letter upon that tombstone, shall echo some maternal utterance, or reflect the inscriptions of some Maternal epistles. Has your mother passed into the :skies? How nobly .boin are you! What nobler origin could you, desire? Live in a style worthy of such parentage, and take care that a reunion is effected when you leave thismorld. The Saviour can secure this for you. Young women may learn a useful lesson from the subject before .us. Sep. ,what really fits your sex for, the most iniportant positions 'of life. It is sound and practical wisdom„ You may have wealth, rank, mental accom plishments, and personal attractions, and yet be ,disqualified for ther duties to which such as-yourselves are zconiniOnlY destined:- eil tivate not that which is fine and showy, bid that which is useful:---not that which is senti mental, but that which is practical. Read works of fiction very sparingly, and read ac tual life very carefully and copiensly. Search all sacred Scripture,but especially, for prac tical purposes, the words of our Saviour and the words of Solomon. Do not be qualifying yourselves to be a man's plaything, but be prepared to be his real helper. Get pru dence—get it by careful observation-&-g et by digesting your own expthence—and get it by communion with the God of wisdom. And turning' o young men, we say, when the times arrives to think of marriage, make the 'text a light to your path. Seek front the Lord a prudent wife. Some writer has said, Choese,the daughter of a gootmpther.' But, looking at all that is involved in mar riage, let me beseech you ever to ask counsel or Gild, and to' Make' the' words *Welt He'has spoken your guide: We commenced this discnirse.bi some re: Imarks upon the essentialequality of mankind. We would close it ,by calling your , attention to the great difference which ,exists between those who perform' our common duties, and bear our common trials and encounter our R.

Recognising the dif ference , between, the disciples of our Lord Jesus Christ and these who not love and trust, serve and, follow Him, 'we ask—we ask you individually—art thou one of Christ's disciples? The way of life is often through thick darkness; you need God'e Son to guide The natural way of man is evil—dangerous, and ruinous ; .you need God's Son to ransom The way of life is ofteu through fierce and terrible' storms, and you wilt always need God's Son to shelter and comfort you. Will not this- be the case *hen, by the bereave ment of death, your house shall become to you as , a survivor, a house of mourning ? And will not thiS be also the case when death by. his: impending stroke shall threiten to slay you f and to make your home a house of Mourning te others? In life and in death, may Jesus Christ be our, faithful friend.— Amen.—/tev. D. Martin. THE CHRISTIAN THIEF A remarkable discovery was lately made, upon the decease of a woman of quality, in London. Fier chambers were filled with all manner of shop goods, from coal scuttles, to gold watches ' which she had stolen from the shops she frequented., - The shopkeepers knew her Monomania, and sent the bills to her husband, who paid them. She never made aily use of the:Stolen goods, never gave any of them away, and kept the rooms con taining them very:closely locked, lest any one- Should see the , stolen articles. She simply gratified her habit of stealing things. I know several. Christian monomaniaes, who do precisely the same thing.; only they steal out of e,hurches ' instead of out of stores, and do the principal plundering on the Sab bath. They do not pocket the bibles and hymn books*; they only steal their contents. I have never caught any of them carryngi off the pulpit sofa„ or the church clock, but they have a remarkable taste for purloin the: public gospel, and hiding it where it will never be cleen or heard of. `They must-have i an enormous: accumulation. of _gospel truth by this tante, for they have been carrying off every Sabbath for years, as much as would save _a whole family, but they have never . parted with one . word of it to any mortal, - for fear of detection, I suppose. Their own children could never suspect they had been to church, unless they actually ac : companied them No. word escapes them haVing the slightest reference to religien, either on the way or in the house. They must have heard an impressive sermon in youth, from the text; A 13208, VI. 10, " Hold thy tongue, for we may not make mention of the name of the Lord." Theirpower of secre tiveness iaperfectly astonishing. If two or three of them should carry off the church bell some day , . and hide - it down in the cellar Without. ever allowing it to tinkle, it would not be a'feat equal• to that of one of theM, who carrying off the Whole proceedings of a most arousing prayer meeting in her muff, with an air of the most naive earnestness, addressed her friend as she crossed ,the church door with, "guestv who is, going to be married ?" • • • • WATCHMAN. . - of the.

I would fain whisper it in the ears of nay fellow teac4erB. Make your lesSons short. Make your questions brief. Above all make your prayers -brief. You have only an hour for reciting lessons, hearing catechisin, reading and - questioning, ' exhortation, singing, and devotional exercises. If you pray fifteen minutes, . and if somebody addresses the school fifteen minutes, what time is left for other duties?' I. listened last Sabbath) Withgreat pain, to a prayer at the 'opening-of. a ,school, which could only be described by a word coined by . the Rhemish translators, longanimity. It was a good prayer, and an earnest one, and the nfferer remembered every, interest_ of the church from China,to the,Potomae;.but right in front , of Me, Was a eligs',Of rowdy boys, without a teacher, trying to steal each other's caps, and 01:4415u4onyof0019ther,:s jac kets, And ;the class behind that was, trading knives, , and the infant class, wa,s carrying On a comparison, of mittens,.and skating caps: Oh how I longed to pull that broilier!s skirt, and whisper in his ear, stop. Would not five7intelligiblewords,—words corrying some meaning known to-t f hp. children, be a more acceptable prayer from that Sabbath school, than the fifteen minute's prayer, for things which, they could,not.,possibly understand, and had no thought of asking? - Teachers never exceed three minutes in , your . .prayers. Every minute more is only training the children to formalism and hypo crisy. ONE OF You. - —Banner of the Copenant. CULTURE OF COTTON, THE Commissioner of Patents has issued a circular in which he says;. yhe tion - of cotton in the Tree States is beginning to attract moral attention.; To prevent fail nres-ih;ltieultivatie n; it is proper to remark that it a principle in vegetable physiology that tropical plants can newer be acclimated North, exceptliY a repeated reproduction =of new varieties from the seed. The attempt to acclimate the Sea Island oaten, such' as is now being brought from Hilton Head, would prove a failure in any portion of the Free States. " The only:ii:Orttrotic Capable:4sfie,"= cessfulcul&ratiori in these sections; now seek ing its introduction, is the green seed cotton, such, as is now being raised extensively in Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee and portions of Kentucky, and wich produces the white fibre. The seed should be obtained from these localities. The modifications of the soil and climate will influence the Size of the plant, the length and fineness of the fibre, and the product of the crop ; but no reason? able doubt is entertained of the success of the culture in all the wild portions of-the Middle States, and efforts are now being made to procure the proper seeds for distri bution.. " The Commissioner further says that the resuite4 of the cultivation of Sorgha, the past year, settle the question of its entire practi cal success, and that one of the difficulties presenting itself, is the want -of , pure seed. To meet, this want the department has or dered seed from France for distribution in the ensuing Spring. It must be borne in mind, however, that the same causes which have produced deterioration Mere exist-there, and well ,grounded. appWi.epions are enter tained that, the seed:thus imported may not be free from suspicion. Farmers, who are interested, should secure pure seek from -among themselves - when it is ,possible, as the season is so far advanced .that direct impor tations, from Africa or China will be imprac ticeable." THE THREE 1".8. Protaptitude, Perseverance. and Painstaking , AT the close of the last century, a poor, awkward, uncouth, boy entered London but he was so long, lank, and ungainly, that he seeredfit'enly to be the drudge of a print ing-office:; run errands, bring water, ..sweep the floor, and the like. Already-hai pover r ty and the of the world made him sour, Unhopeful, and independent. Under less diseouragements, many:a youth has aban doned. himself to ,an aimless life, having no higher aim than to live but for the day; or, worse still, has plunged headlong into the extravagances andlOttlience,s connected with thriftleskliess" and . 441* e. But the boy had vigorous health; this imparted to him a mental vim, a moral power, which soon show ed itself to his eniployer. He was prompt, persevering and painstaking ; and, with these three qualities, in spite of the fact that he was good .at nothing, in every thing tolerable only, he made his patient way, step by step s , to the woolsack of England, and lately died, (worth a million of dollars ; ) among the most honored men of his nation and age—Lord Chief-Justice Campbell. In - this case, vigor ous health was a mine of Wealth ; a better fortune than if he had been the heir of many thousands. And certain is it, that the World would be a happier - world, and.the men in - it would-be happier„ better, and greater, if one tithe of ` the time, and care; and study which parents bestow onthe accumulation of money to leave to their ehildern, were devoted to the, physical education and training necessary to secure a vigorous . constitution.
