WAYMARKS. OF THE °KRISTIAN'S LIFE.
The aged servant of God who, in the seventy
first Psalm reviews the experiences of his life
froth his birth, is filled with wonder at the mani
festations of diving Providence with which, they,
abound. And as s he names The simile fact of
his birth as one of these providences,we are jus
tified in believing, with Tholuok, that he Aloes
not refer only to 'extraordinary manifestations of
the hand of Goa ; his eye of faith regard's the-or
dinary works and dealings of God to , him as won
derful. And that spiritual-minded commentator
, . .
presses the'inquiry: "Is not the reason of 'our
finding so littla to praise, to
,be sought in our
having no eyes for God's daily . miraeles?.. The
Psalmist, , he adds;has eyes. or the . daily miracles
of the Lord-:-' -and therefore''3l:Muth is full of
the praise pf the Lord."

Tun question 'between the national govern

plainly one which admits of the arbitration of
the sword alone. - We cannot make peace with

whole nation to the rebel autherities, or by con
