The following lntrui-tive legend, Including
Within Us liu-uninjr tho beautiful gohk'ii thread
of thought conveyed In tho jmrulilo of the ton
talents, Ih ut tho prcHc.nl tiiuo current In Oriental
lumls. It is MiilpoHcd to bo of very undent
ori,ln:
There wont a limn from home; anil tu Ills neighbors
twain
IIo rhvc, to kcop for Mm. two Mirks of froldon
' (rriitii. ,
Peep in lilf f llnr one the pri-liusliarie rnnrenled,
A.ud forth the other went and strewed It lu liln
field.
Tlic man return at last asks of the first his surk :
'Hew tuke it; "tin the name; llmu hast it ttutely
hank."
TJuharmeil it hows without; hut when he would
cx)lore
IIih suck's reresses, rorn there lie llnd no more;
One half of what wiih there proves rotteu mid de
cayed, I'pon the other half have worm anil mildew preyed.
Tho putrid heap to him In Ire he doth return.
Then he the other aHkH, "Where in my suck of coin?"
Yhu aiiHwered, "Come Willi me anil see how II tun
sped"
Ami took and showed him fields with waving har
vents spread.
Then cheerfully the man laughed out and cried,
"This one
Had ltis!i?ht, to make up for the other that had none.
The MU-t he oliservo.il, hut thou the prei-epf
iiid thus to thee and me shall prollt grow from
hence;
In harvest thou shalt fill two sacks of corn for me,
The residue of right remains for thee."
Scripture (ilnllon.
Correct and apt quotations from the l!ille arc
Tory n-fret-hhig. When a sound, evangelical
discourse, full of powerful arainncntation, is
preached, the effect is durable, when appropriate
texts arc cited; and the quotation are e.s "goad's
and as nulls fastened by the masters of ass-etn-tlieb."
To hear the sacred Scriptures grossly perverted
13 an unpardonable error. The word of God
fchould be bo familiar as to prevent such gross
Ocss. We are very strict in regard to secular
Quotations. If a favorite author becomes mis
represented, or, at least, is subjected to loss of
beauty and charm, we feel very sensitive at once.
The same thing applies with more force to tho
JJible. There is not one word in the whole Scrip
tures but what contains a power and relation to
Its fellows. Every word and sentence abounds
In import and life, but it they are wrested from
these harmonious relations, they must suffer not
only in loss of vigor, but also in beauty and
fcweetness.
We are too prone to become lax in the com
initial and expression of Holy Writ. God's pre
cious promises are too valuable to tritle with,
His warnings are too fearful to mould into our
pwn perverse interpretation. It requires much
application, prudence, and prayer to infuse our
Blinds witli the power and our souls with the
vcii;ht of God's living counsels.
Again, too many mingle their owu frail lan
guage with the incomparable texts of God's
word, and treat them as though they were the
Words of human composition. Strict attention
to their reading and study would remedy this
evil.
I have heard beautiful passages from the Bible
misquoted lu the prayers of fervent and eminent
Christians. At such a time one would think that
the pure, native language of Scripture was the
licit and the most powerful. The evil achieved
through 6iich habits is very grout; the word is
weakened, diluted, and becomes unpalatable to
the saint as well as to the sinner. If we wish
to keep the "well of English iindeliled," let us
respect the language and its forms as wo iiud
jlicin In the Hiblc.

The new" United Presbyterian Church now lit
f nurse of erection at Orthodox and Eruiiklni streets,

sire of thu opinion that owing to the way they have
managed tho work, and on account of other things
favorable, they can finish for about 2n,0W. The lec

expenses thus far will he about $111,11110, all of which
has been paid i-xcupt some SA'iOii, which it is hoped
will he raised at the opening. Tho lirst story Is de
villed into four rooms, namely : a lecture-room, winch
Is to have iieniiaaient pews, and one each for prayer
lneetings, trustccH and pastor. These rooms can all
he thrown Into one by sliding doors and sash, afford
ing accommodation for four hundred persons. The
tilings of these rooms will be about twelve feet
liiuh. The second story is intended for Sabbat U-
nchool purposes. A tower some l;l feet square rises
jtt the southeast corner of the building In front; from
the ground to the pinna -le the distance is about i
