Christian Heroism.
It is easy to die on the battle-field--to con
front death there. There earthly prizes' are
won—stars, bright - honors, are glittering
amid the sulphurous smoke; there earthly
passions are to be gratified—my sister was
wronged, my mother butchered,, my little
brother's brains dashed out against the
I am a man, and, could believe the story told
of our countrymen—how each, having got a
bloody lock of the murdered woman's hair,
sat down in awful, ominous silence, and, after
counting the number that fell, to each man's
lot, - rose to swear by the great God of Heaven
that for every hair they would have a life.—
Amid such scenes, with passions boiling, ven.
geance calls for blood, hurling me, like a mad
man, on the edge of steel; and where the
shout of charging comrades 'cheers him on,
the soldier is swept on blazing guns and
bristling bayonets,. in a whirlwind of wild
excitement. But to lie pining inn dungeon,
and never Lear the sweet voice of sympathy;
to groan and shriek upon the rack, where
cowled and shaven murderers are as devoid
of pity as the cold stone walls around; to suf
fer as our fathers did, when calm and intrep
id, they marched down that street to be hung
up like dogs, for Christ's crown and kingdoni,
implies a higher courage, is a far nobler,
manlier, holier thing. Yet thousapds have,
so died for Jesus. Theirs has been the gen
tle, holy, heroic spirit of that soldier boy,
whose story is one of the 'bright incidents
that have relieved the darkness of recent her-,
rors, and- shed a halo of glory around the
dreadful front of war. Dragged from the
jungle, pale with loss of blood, wasted to a
shadow with famine and hardship, far away
from father or mother, or any earthly friend,
and surrounded by a cloud of black, incar
nate fiends, he saw a Mohammedan convert,
appalled at the preparations for his torture,
about to renounce his faith. FaSt dying, al
most beyond the vengeance of his enemies,
this good, brave boy had moment more to
live, a breath more to spend. Love to jes us,
the ruling passion, - was strong in death ; and
so, as the gates of Heaven were rolling open
to receive his ransomed spirit, he raised him
self up, and casting an imploring look on the
wavering convert, cried,. "0, do not deny
your Lord A noble death, and a right nc 7
ble testimony.— Guthrie.
Morning Prayer.
_ So fit and useful is morning devotion, it
ought not to be omitted without necessity.--
If our circumstances will allow the privilege,
it is a bad sign when no part,of the 'morning
is spent-in prayer. If Godfinds no place in
our mind at.that early' and peaceful hour, Ile
will hardly recur to us in the tumults of life.
If the benefits of the morning do not soften
0 , us, we can baldly expect the heart to_lnelt
with gratitude through the day. If the world
then rush in and take possession of us, when
we are at some distance and have lead a res
pite from its-cares, lidw can we hope to shake
it off when we shall be in the midst of it,
pressed and agitated by it-on every side ?
Let apart of the morning be set apart, - if pos
sible, to devotion ; and to this end we should
fix the hour at our disposal: Our piety is
suspicious,-if we can renounce, uS too many
do, the pleasures and benefits of early prayer
rather than forego the. senseless indulgence
ref unnecessary sleep. What! we can rise
early enough far business. We eaneven an
ticipate the dawn, if - a favorite., pleasure or
an uncommon 'gain 'request :the effort. But
cannot rise, that we may - ,arm ourselVes for
the severe conflicts to vihich our principles
are to be exposed!' We are willing to rush
into the world, without thanks offered or a
blessing sought From a day thus begun
what are we to expect but thoughtlessness
and guilt. Dr. Channing.
The Fulness of Christ
The happiness Ave derive from creatures
is like a beggar's garment—it is made up of
pieces and patches, 'and is worth very little
after all. But the blessedness we derive from
the Saviour is single and complete. In him
all fulness' dwells. He is answerable to eve
ry condition. He is a physician to heal, a
Counsellor to plead, a king to govern, a friend
to sympathize, a father to provide. Ile is a
foundation to sustain, a root to enliven, a
fountain to refresh. He is the shadow from '
the heat, the bread of
.life, the morning star,
the sun of righteousness ; all, and in
No creature can be' a substitute for him, but
he can supply the place:of every creature.—
lie is my salvation, and all my desire ;
my hope, my peace, my life, Iris , glory, and
my joy.
Whom have I in heaven but Thee ? and
there is none upon earth that I desire besides
Thee. My flesh and my heart faileth, but
Thou art the strength of my heart and my
portion forever. I cannot be exposed, I can
not be friendless, I cannot be'poor, I cannot
be fearful, I cannot be sorrowful with Thee.
BRIGHT AND GLOOMY HOURS.-.A.11! this
beautiful world. Indeed, I know not what to
think of it. Sometimes it is all gladness and
sunshine, and heaven itself is not far off.—
And then it changes suddenly and is dark and
sorrowful, and the clouds shut out the sky.
in the lives of the saddest of us there are
'bright days like this when we feel as if we
could take the great world in our arms. Then
come the gloomy hours, when the fire will
neither burn in our hearts nor on our hearth,
and all without and within is dismal, cold and
dark. Believe me, every heart has its secret
sorrows which the world knows not, and often
times we call a man cold when be is only sad.

satisfaction that we cheerfully xecommend them to all who
wish a good and substantial Sewing Machine. It executes
work with :lunch care and speed. and more finely than any
other machine I have seen."---Mrs. .R. B. Mitchell, Mem
phis, Tenn. —• • • '
"I am happy to give My testimony in favor of Grover
& Baker's Sewing Machine, and of the perfect satisfaction
it gives in every respect. It sews neatly, and is by no
means complicated, and I prefer it to all others I have
seen."—Nrs. Bryan, wife of Rev. 4. Ar. Bryan, Memphis,
7C7171. - • - .
It affords me much pleasure to say, that the Machine
works well; andi do not hesitate to recommend it as pos
sessing all' the advantages you claim for it. My wife is
very much pleased with it, and we take pleasure in certi
fying to this elfect."—B. C. Brinkley, Memphis, Tenn.
"It gives me pleasure. to find the,Grover & Baker Sew
ing Machine giving so much satisfaction., I have it in
constant use; and findit all that could be desired. It is
,the most simple and durable machine in use, and I heart
ily recommend Ar. J Vhite, Memphis, Tenn;
"Having seen, examined, and used many other kinds of
Sewing Machines, I feel free to say, that the Grover &Ba
ker Machines 'are far superior to all others in use."—X.
FranCiOS Selz, Nashville, Tenn.
4 ' I. consider my Sewing Machine invaluable, and would
not take five times its cost, if I could not supply its place.
With it I can do all my family sewing in about one-fourth
the time I could with my hands."—M. J Scott, Nashville,
