TALKING of Sects till late one eve, Of the various dimtrines the saints believe, That night I stood, in a troubled dream, Sy Abe side of .a darkly flowing stream. And a " Churchman" down to the river came : ,When, I heard a strange voice call his name, " Good father, stop I when you cross this tide, You must leave your robes on the other side !" Bat the aged father did not mind, And his long garment floated out behind, As down the stream his -way he took, Ms pale hand clasping a gilt-edged book. " rm.bound for heaven, and. when I'm there, I shall want my Book of Common Prayer ; And though I put on a starry crown I should feel quite lost without my gown." Then he fixed his eyes on the shining track, But his gown was heavy, and held him back, And the poor old father tried in'vain A-single step in the flood to gain. sik*,him again on the other side ; But his silk gown floated on the tide; And no one asked in that blissful spot Whether be' belonged to " The Church " or not Then down to the river a Quaker strayed, His dress of a sober hue was made, '. " My coat and hat must be all of gray, I cannot go any other. way." Then he buttoned his toot straight up to his chin, And staidly, solemnly waded in.; And his broad brimuild hat he pulled down tight Over hiS forehead so cold and white. But a strong wind carried away his. hat, A moment he silently sighed over that, And. then as be :gazed on the farther shore The coat slipped off, and was seen no more As he entered heaven, his suit of gray Went quietl7 sailing—away—away : And none of the angels questioned him About the width of his beaver's` brim. Next came DT. Watts,-with a bundle of Psalms Tied nicely up in his aged titles; And Hymns as many—a very wise thing— That the people in heaven " all round" might sing. Put I thought that he heaved an anxious sigh, As he saw that the river ran broad and high, And looked rather surprised, as one by one The Psalms and Hymns in the waves =went down. And after him with his MSS., Came Wesley, the pattern of godliness But he cried " Dear rue, what shall I do? The water has soaked them through and through." And there, on the river, far ,and wide, Away they went down on the swollen tide ; And the saint, astonished, passed through alone, Without his manuscripts up to the throne. Then gravely walking, two saintEi by name, Down to the stream together'earne But as they stopped'at the river's brink, I saw one saint from the other shrink. " Sprinkled or plunged, may ; I ask you, friend, how you attained to life's great end ? " " Thus with a few drops on my . brow." " But I have been dipped as you'll see me now." And I really think it will hardly do As I'm close 'comm union,' TO with you; You're bound, I know, to the realm bliw, But you must go that way and I'll go this?' Then straightway, lunging with all his might, Away td'the lek - his frtend at the right, Apart they went from this world of sin, But at last together they entered in. And now when the river was rolling on, A Presbyterian chnrch went down : OF women, there teemed an innumerable throng, But the in I could couqea I passed 'along. - And concerning the road they could never agree; The &d, or the new way which it could be, Nor ever a moment paused to think; That both would lead to the river's brink. _ And &sound of murmurings long and loud Came ever up from the moving crowd-- " You'rein ,the old way, and Pm in the new ; That.is the false, and this is the true,"— Or, "Evan the ,old way, and you're in the new; Thai Is the false, and this is the true." But the brethren only seem to speak— Modest the sisters walked and meek, And if ever one of theta chanced to say What troubles she met with on the way; How she longed to pass to the other side; Nor feared to cross over the swelling tide ; A voice arose from the'brethren then, " Let ndona speak but die , tram!;"- For have you not heard the words of Paul ? 4 Oh, let the women keep silence all.'" I watched them long in my curious dream; Till they stood by the bordets of the stream; Then, just as I thought, the two ways met, But all' the brethren were talking yet; And would talk on till the leaving tide Carried them over side by side, • For the way was one, The toilsome journey of life was done. And all wholn Christ the Saviour died, Came out alike on the other side; No forms, or crosses, dibooks had they, No gowns of silk,'or Suits 'of grey, No creedittoguide:thesti nor 11 .

Being ti thorough worker, he had 'charge of a farm before l hk sister kepi h'iise Ter litif f t.. 'To itigkospelof bhriSt he '',asa stranger Hol4l.—not hearth over half a dozen sermons, and never entereta. a4i94l:4l4t. 4 Te.atalt4age of the Bible before, he was ,eighteen old. He tad, however, a brother named Henry, that had learned sontethipg of the truth from an old Ia(ly with whoni =he - lived, and from sermons bad heard:: ©he idea came on a visit. As they were sitting, he suddenly put the question : do you think will kecome „of .you when you "W 11, I don't know; T never thought of that," Henry told,:hitn that he had a precious soul that must one day and in heaven or bell, according to its character here; spoke to him of Jesus, and urged him to get a Bible and read for himself. 'He did shortly after, and sat down to its perusal. Never shall I forget his describing to me the impression that first contact with God's Word had upon him. "I was frightened," said he. "It seemed as if every sin I had ever committed was written down in that book. The more I read the Worse I felt." He kept on reading till a great mass of truth was lodged in his mind. But he had not yet learned to pray. Soon after, he hord a sermon from the passage : "But now Nod) commandeth all men everywhere to repent: because he bath appointed, a day in the -which he will judge the world," etc. Bill listened with intense interest. His reso lution was - fixed. He must repent. A day or two after, he was at work in -a cornfield. He felt that he *mist pray, just there. He kneeled down and begged, as best he could, for mercy. While on his knees, he felt the joy of pardon, and rose to his feet a happy man. At noon he went home, and before sitting down to dinner, said': "Let us pray," and dropped on his knees. His sister, ignorant of, his state of mind, knew not what to make of this strange act, and supposed him to be mocking. When he got through, she exclaimed with look of amazement, "Why, 1341! do you mean it?" "Yes, I do," said he, " and am going to live a different lie." The Sabbath after, he went again to church. After sermOri, the pastor, gave notice tiiitfan the following Saturday a meeting of the church would be held, and any who ,might might wish to join would have the opportun ity. Saturday came, and so did Bill. No one seemed to know him,' except a dea conl and he knew not, what he wanted There. It was supposed that he had, come into the house by _mistake. The pastor, however, spoke to him, and ascertained that he Wished to join the church. lie related what God had done for him. Imperfectly he told his story, but, with such evident honesty that he was received. From that time forth he went on his way rejoicing, doing promptly the:duties set be fore him, and exciting the wonder of his old friends at the change that had come over him. About two years after, the sister that was so astonished at his praying, began to pray herself, and they are now serving Christ together,.—Tract journal. THE HONE MOTU& Some one, writing for the Masonic Mirror, has drawn a charming picture, of a home loving, ,child-loving mother ;c " We must draw a line, aye, a broad line, between her and the frivolous butterfly of fashion, who flits from ball to opera and par ty, decked in rich robes, and followed by a train as hollow and heartless 'as herselfshe who, forgetful of the holy task assigned' ber, neglects those who have been 'given in her charge, and leaVes them to the care of hire hugs, while she puriues her giddy round of amusements. " Not so ,our Home-mother / blessings,be onlier heed 'The heart warms 'to see er in her daily routine of pleasant duties. How patiently she sits, day after day, shaping and sewing some article for use or adornment for her little fleck ! And how proud and pleased is each little recipient of her kindnesi ! How the little face dimples with pleasure, and the bright eyes grow still brighter, as mamma decks them with her own hands in the new dress she has made ! How much warmer and more, comfortable- they feel, if mamma wraps - them Up - before they go to school No ene but her can warm the wits` and over-shoes, or tie the comforters around the necks I " There is a peculiar charm about all slie does—the precious mother ! They could:not' sleep, say, for that matter, she. could not, if she failed to visit their chamber, and with her soft hands arrange them comfortably be fore she slept. Her heart thrills with grati tude to her Creator, as she looks on those sweet blooming faces ; and when their pray ers are done, she imprints a good-night kiss on each rosy little mouth. It may be, too, a tear will start for one little nestling, laid in its, chill, .narrow. bed, for whom her mater-' nal care is no longer needed. It steeps,, though the sleet and the snow descend; and. the wild winter winds lowl around its lead. It needs no longer her tender care. A might ier arm enfolds it. It is at rest. She feels and knows that it is right, andlends meekly to the hand that sped the shaft, and turns with a warmer love, if it be possible, to those little ones who are left her to love. How tend - erly she guards them from every danger, and with what strong, untiring love, she watches by their bedside when they are ill ! Blessings be on the gentle, loving, hallo-mo ther t Angels must look with love upon her acts. Her children shall rise up, and call. her blessed, and the memory of her kindness shall" enfold her as a garment." =maw 11031 E-LIFE. A living author, has beautifully said : ‘,‘ To Adam, Paradise was home; ' to - the geed among his decunclants, home is -Paradise." This ought to be universally true, but we fear it is not. Many good people are not wise; and a measure of wisdom as'well as goodness is required to; make`:home 'happy. We are not now referring to families in which piety in 'one of the parents may be contradicted by an opposite character in - the Other, nor to those in which headstrong children. have re paid indulgence bYlpgratitude and disobedi 7 ence. Even well-ovjerneit households are nett % necessarily happy; for the authority may - be complete,- and the respect for it pre-, foUnd, while'the •faMily life is #anting Many thingi, necessary to make hOme what it should be. . We want, first of all, an insight into the deep meatrini, the divine intent of_ home. We ;mat -thatDbfitlt in': mature.: :ad in PcNipture the .familyris -shown to be a. ,divine institutien—the model as well as the school for .all the legitimate forms of .social life The•erder'of the world prodneee lies, and - the' dirne Vlates parental au thority and filial obedience at the foundation of national life—at least, so much is implied in the coMMand, "Minor thy father aril .thy mother, -thy days maY.N.4.4ng the laud Which the Lord thy God. giveth This is called the .

For instance, in the state, the largest social organism' with - which '"they` come cOntatt, men are, except in times of public disturbance, only remotely and unconsciously affected. The law protects them in all their -rights, without their, own care or concernment, anti in, their whole outdoor life as citizens, they are from home, living under a habitual re serve, showing their real character but par tially, even to their most intimate friends. So true is it that to -know , people. we must live in the same house with them:t hone; on the contrary, the association is so narrow ; the relation so intimate, the contact so per petual, that the social .and individual ele ments become, so to speak, fused into a sin gle consciousnese.

And as there is xlo hope that diverse constitutions, though of the same blood, can be shaped exactly, alike, the great aim must be to make the best of peculiar na tures, and unite altogether in a common desire and a common= effort to promote each other's happiness. Home-life, to this end, must be free; its laws, without being in the least degree lax, must offer themselves as exprssions of pa rental affection, and must so appear in the life of the parents themselves. But, instead of this, what. do "see. - in _most Christian families ?---Why,.;in many . instances where parents are even genuinely pious, home is simply a resting-place, as well from the blandishments as. from. the labors of life. The pursuit . of businessr. has been se _eager and exhausting, And so many smiles .have been called for in the "intercourse with the world, that the father seeks rest, rather than recreation, at home _amthis intercourse' with the children is .only formal, if not morose. Instead' of inquiring into their studies at school, or into the out-door history of the day, and having a real interest in the one and the other--instead of prying into their reading, 'and affectionately and judiciously 'regulating it, he is only seen as the embo die% authority:Of the' bottle, fiery good, hut rather dreadful.--Methodist.

Surely the way in which we commonly go on is not that way of self-denial and sacrifice and cross-bearing which the New Testament talks of. Then is the .offence of the Cross ceased.
