This art has been forgotten In Iiivi-utluiis of later times. It Is simple in Us njijillcat Imi, nnd eoinprelien.slvo to the meanest un- dcrstandlni;. Its chief advantage, how ever, is that whereiw tho bumps on a man's head uru hidden beneath his hair or wig, and thu wor-o ipialitles they In dicate, tlio less will h permit them to be examined here, on tlio contrary, thu Index of his character is pivcNoly tho nio;t prominent feature of Ids face. It would seem as If nature had taken this precaution lu order to render hypocrisy unavailable. A person might endeavor, no doubt, to keep the world In the dark by merely putting tho handkerchief to his nose, llko a chicken that thrusts its head into a comer and fancier itself in vWlile. Hut in u c.io of this studied concealment, It would not be tincharl tablc.to conclude, that ho was charac terised hy Midi an atrocious 1100 as would iilliiglit mankind to look upon. Without further preface we should fa vor our readers with the elements of of the M lcnee,be.-eecliing thenl not only to study their neighbors' noses, but to glance In the looking-glass at their own. A mw long,slender,and small,denotes a person audacious, testy, hasty, peevNh, ercditlou", irresolute. Not a very unit able nose this) next better. A no-e long and deellliliigdownwards over tho upper Up, slgnllies a person sagacious, secret, serviceable, truo to his friend, honest and fair In ids deal ing." This, mcthlnks, is not a very pretty nose to look ut. We fear that sonio oiour readers would prefer 11 bet tersha.'d one, even with worse Indlca- uous. . A noscidmrp in thu end, nnd of mid' dllug proportion, denotes a person coil' celled, oiisu!tnble,content!ous, irritable, scornful, cunning, malicious, but with a good memory. Doubtless, a good memory i- a desirable thing enough; but it will hardly mnku amends for so many evil attributes as aro hero cnu lueratcd especially as, when combined with malico, tho possessor will be likely to remember an old grudge. A nose broad, crooked in tho upper part, Ion;;, aud gro-ser than ordinary, marks n person hold, proud, tierce tenaclom. envious, covetous, luxutloii deceitful, vain-glorious, perfidious mul a scold. We would lleo from this nose. as far as wo could see it with a tele scope. A nosohrge In thoinIddlo,nndgroV' lug less towards thu upper part, is n sign of 11 person invariable, luxurious nice in hU language, and of a churlish disposition. This, wo presume, is tlio sort of uok thai Us owner Is addicted to turning up, when matters do not hap pen to suit his fancy. A noo long, and very thick, denote a person very greedy, eonvetous, simple In good thhigsand witty in evil, frown Ing, dissembling, and much niorolgrror tint than ho would be reported to be, Whoever Ims a noso of this pattern, wo adviso him never to go abroad without clnpplng his handkerchief to it ns if It were bleeding. A noso unusually elevated In tlie mid die, liko the arch of a bridge, murks person lying,idle,lnconstaiit, luxurious, credulous, Importunate, ready-witted a gro-s liver, and Irreligious. Mercy on us I aro there no good noses in tho list I'or our own nart. If wo wero not al ready provided, wo hail about as liuvo do without n noso ns mnke a shift with any such wicked snouts ns these. A noso lndlirereutly long, and small in tho middle, dignities a person bold, rational, honest, soon angry, but soon pleased. As noses go this is worth any money. It is not to bu sneezed at. A noso somewhat hairy nt tho end, bigger than ordinary, but small woru It Joins tho forehead, denotes 11 person of good disposition, but too easily de ceived. Supposing this to boa lady's noso, wo should feel 110 sort of Inclina tion to tako advantngo of her easy na ture. It beoms to bo a good, honest nose, but u very hideous one. A noso every wny very big, very long, and with wide nostrils, dwotesn per son moro wcuk titan wise fallacious, subtle, contentious, luxurious, vain glorious, envious, nnd Impertinently curious. Whenever wo meet tho nose, wo shall hnrdly refrain from giving Jtn tweak.

THE MAN WITH TIE WITH ERED IIA" D. It is a Sabbath morning; and Its doors thrown open ns the hour for prayer approaches, tho synagogue be gins to fill. Among those who enter Is a man with n withered hand ; and how ever others come, thero is liasto In ids step, and high expectation seated on Ids brow. Hlrssed day, now Is his ehnnce to bo healed. Jesus is in the neighborhood, and Is sttro to bo nt wor ship. Farly there, likely tho first, tills crippled mini, heeding nothing else, looking at none, talking with none, keeps Ills yo on thu door keenly ob serving all wlto enter, and often, as It opens iind('hrltuppenrsiiot,llsnppolnt- (il.

Xor I., tills nil ito can do nnd does. Observing where Jesus at tended by ills disciples sits, ho rlcc.s, and elbowing thu crowd nsldo without regard to their challenge or murmurs, pushes on to phico himself heforu the Saviour, fight in his eye. All this ho can do, and does, and more. Ordinarily concealing a deformity he was nshamed of, lie now drops his robe, and exposing tlio poor unsightly hand In tho hope that It may catch Christ's eye and move his pity, sits with looks fixed Implor ingly on our Lord. There was no need for him to speak. Ills eager looks, and tlio poor, bared, withered hand wore touching prayers. Nor did thee prayers alt long lor an answer. Tho oyo that nover saw misery but to ylty it, isnt length turned on him ; and Jesus says Stretch out thine hand ! Strango com mand to others, perhaps also to ltlinse'f ns bidding him do tlio very thing Ito had no tower to do. Still hu tries it galli doing what ho can, ho makes tin effort and, Glory to God I bursting from his lips, succeeds. Vlrtito goes out of Christ. The shrunken hand in- tantly acquires si healthful color, and swells Into Its right proportions. In his joy tho man shuts and opens it ; moves tho pliant fingers; aud holds the mira cle aloft to tho gaze of a crowd dumb witli nstonlsliitient.

And did people with equal eagerne-s repair to tliochurcli on Sabbath as ho to tlio syna gogue, to meet Jesus Christ, and with tho same earnestness aud thoMimo faith lay out their sins and soul's sorrows be fore him, our Sabbaths would witness greater works than this ho who healed that withered hand healing withered hearts, and whether they required tout, saved or sanctified, giving tower to them tbnthaveno might. 1)1: (luthrir. l'Kll'i:il.

Amono tlio early Christians thu mod em style of preaching was reversed ; the preacher generally delivered his exhor tation in a sitting posture, wlillo the congregation heard him standing. Chrysotom preached in litis manner. Men wore their heads covered in the church, in tlio time of Elizabeth. The habit has been traced to the Hebrew Synagogue. Our Lord sat and disputed among the doctors in thu Temple. Pub lic expression of approval by tho audi ence was mado by tossing up their gar ments, or waving tliulr pinnies, lu the timo of Chrysotom and Jerome. Tho old English mime, Parson, i.s sup posed to bo a corruption of person, the person by eminence. Fuller remarks thnt thu Scripture give four names to Christians, taken from tho fourcardinal graces: saints, for tlieirh(illuess; heller ers, for their faitlt ; hrcthren, for their love; iliseipUn, for their knowledge.

In tlio first century, they were distinguished by the titles of presbyter and bishops. Church music issiippo-pil to havo been first Introduced by Grego- ory the Groat, A.D., fil!2. Church stee ples wero originally parochial fortresses. Sidney Smith thus defines tho object of preaching: "It Is constantly to re mind mankind of wind mankind is con stantly forgetting; not to supply tho dofects of human Intelligence, but to fortify tho feebleness of huinaii resolu tlons; to recall mankind from the by paths where they turn, Into the path of salvation which all know, imt few tread." "How comes it," demanded a Hi-hop of Garrlck, "that 1, in expounding di vine doctrines, produce so littlo etft ct upon my congregation, wlillo you can so easily rouse tho passions of your au ditors by the representation of fiction ? Tho nnswer was short any pithy. "Ho cuuso I recite falsehoods us if they wero truo, wlillo you deliver truths as If they wero fiction."
