ctAvozi LOANS.--The Supremo Court Of
t'lls Stateremiered a decision in the case
of WOLBACII and wife against the Lehigh
Building Association. A logical Conse
quence seems to be - that if the
. money
loaned has not been I used to' buy or Ira
prove her st l / 4 1pamte real estate, but• has
been used *raise money to pay her bus- ,
band's debts, or for any other purpose, it
• : void altogether. It declares that in all
s where. married - women • deal with
the • • ociations the mortgage is good
only for the actual amount loaned and
legarinterest. , •
Thiri will, no doubt, seriously affect the
vast investments made by Building Asso
ckttions on-the credit of , mortgages giv . en
by married women, and will prove a
grave -matter for such associations.. Of
late years it Nts been a_ very comniori
piractie4 for men to hold their properties
illtheir wives' n am es, •
and when desirous
f
o
a loan, to join:with the wives' in the
mn ortgage; contrary to the law us it now
. appears. The effect of this decision will
certainlybe seen in litigation consequent
upon suits on mortgages givoi by mar
ried women, and a total , refusal by '„tlie
associations to make future loans on any
Dims.' '"_ , •

USN TO THE WORDS OF Tittfir.—Per the
Son of Kin is °bale to seek and to save
that which was lost. ' " I yronld not like to
say thiti this is the very beat verse in the
whole Bible. It Would lie like &wising
your favorite among a large family of
children. 'Nou Jcannot tell which' child
you love the best, when all an) so dear, so
precious.
In a town in Massachusetts; where - we
have heldbleetim* there is a stammer
ing fellow who was converted two 'years
ago. lie he6n - td "search the Scriptures
daily to see if these things be so." Ile
Was observed to sit down to read his Bi
We With a blank book and. poncil . before
him. Upon being asked•what , he was do.
ing, he explained that he was goin'g to
copy into the book. all the . Wit ' verses,
those containing the i ntest precious prom
ises, the most comforting . assurances of
the Divine love.. Some • time after, .upon;
being asked what progress- he . had made
he "I tilled one b-b-book
then. I 6-s-stopped.. - What's
t-t-trying-to pick out the li-h-best erses
in the Bible when they are all best?'!
The Son of Man-is come to -eek and.
to save that which was lOst." I like thiS .
verse becalm it tells whatl, le Son of .Mari.
came into the world for! A few years'
since it was announce' hat the Prince of,
Wales, the heir-app: via to the British
throne, was about ovisit, this country.
Of course every ly was anxious to kmiw
why ho was, ming ; whether for'
pui
poses of. re reation and cultivation, .or
whether me political isignitioation might
be attacl ed to . his visit. Is he coming to
exAmMe into the workings Of oui.ReMib
heap/institutions, or is he more interested
i►r/the Valtness of our manufacturing and
industrial,. interests" But when the Prince
of Peace, the Ifeir to the throne of •the
universe, came among us, his mission
was„ plainly and explicitly stated. - iTe
caine to seek and save that which was
lost.

by,'who had come from Jerusalem and
heard .of the.wonderful Worlo . ;,.pf - one Jr.-
of Nazareth, Mopped and spoke to
'him. Good monnmg; llgiert/titus. Take
courage, my friend, idiase good news for,
you. There is a Prophet Hi IsnAEL whb
can cure your blindness :\ He heals men
of divers diseases, and not. many months
ago he ope,ned the eyes of ( Wm up at
Jerusaleni, who was as bad t' as you are.'
A thrill of hope. and_a paßig o fear, shot.
through the soul of BAnrlitErs.

I was once asked to preach in the
Tombs in New. York. There wire three

Fee one of them. I - stood on a sort. of
bridge that reached from ono side of the
wall to the other. There were tiers of
cells on either hand, both abovi3„and. be

.those blank-hxjking stone walls, but I
tried to preach Christ and him crucified.
When-I had got thningli talking, • the
warden gave me permission to

It is told of timeceentric;and eloquent
Itabkno llttd, that one day as he was
preaching to the people" in the open air,
aitelegant carriage was driven np to the
edge of the platform, Mr. Him, noticed
that a lady sat in the carriage, whose
handsome dress' and air of refinement
showed
,that the did• not belong to the
lower 43Iasses of the people. A coachman
and footman in. costly livery, indicatea
rank and wealth. lie inquired of one sit
ting near,. who was the lady. listening so
attentively to his preaching. That. is
Lady Ann Jrskine, *at the reply.
_Turn
ing towardsthe audience, Mr. HILL cried
out in a loud voice, " I have something
to sell here to-day something of great
Value and importance—it is theVsoul of
Lady ANN ERSKINE. I hear bid. 'Sa

and making her way across: the pkatforin
to the spot where Mr. .Mrta. stead, she
cried out/in a voice broken with sobs,
that kff.llB should have , her soul if ho
would accept to unworthy an offering.
IT you want happiness in this life, lot

'happiest person in the world. He Ought

Ile'stands without this wiry minute and
knocks for admittance ; will you lock and •
bolt your doors against the King of Glory?
Ile came to seek and save that which was
lost. If there is here to7day,' within the
sound of, my voice, a poor outcasta
poor drunkard Who has tried to stand up
onthis feet and has fallen again and again,
until he has become discouraged—if there
ix one so low and vile that he has been
'given up by his relatives and friends—ll
want you to know that Chriit came to•
save your You 'are the
_very one ho is
seeking after. You have only to ask for
'help' and you will surely get it.
WILLIAM DORSET, a London missiona
ry, used, to say that ,no mah was so far
:gone that the grace of - GOd could not save
him. One day a friend came to him and
said : , " I've found a h
min, so vile and de
graded thatzi can't be lavrcl." DORSET
asked,to be shown where he lived, fOr his
need must be pressing.,,, He was,guided to
41, wretched teneinent-house, and after
climbing to the firthitory, he found the
object of his search in a miserable attic.
He .vas lying, upon the floor, a more
breathing bundle of filth and rags. .Don-
sr.t went np.to him, and, takibg the poor,
sick wretch by the hand, said : ." My
friend, *liat'can I do' for you ?"
‘" Why
do.you'all me friend?' I Ifavo sutik too
low in poverty and crime for any human
being to call me friend.' My nearest
relatives cast.tne off lOng ago." "‘ Well,.
there is'One r who loves you still. pud Is
seeking for you. Ile can raise you up out
of, your 'degradation—ho can heal your
sickness and wipe away .at - teals ficnii
your eyes. lie is' at the doOr,, WaZing
to come in this tety. moment. Will_ you
let him in? No matter how wicked you,
havo'becti„ho will fOrgivo you everything
if you only ask him. Will you seek.help
from 'the sinner's friend ? Christ hateS
14i4 with a holy hatred; but oh ! how. teh
he_loves thevoor shiner. You know
that when heYwas oweartli, the Pharisees
coudemolhim'beeaniehe loved sinners
and went in and ate with . them."
The man's. heart was melte/ at- the
thought that. ho still bad a friend... 1113'
throw himsolf upon the mercy of the Sa
vior, 'and his sins were forgiven. "Oh !
I could die .happy-now if my father would
only forgive me:" Mr.. DORSET . enqUired
where his father lived. Ile drove to a gis
t:lnt part of' the city, and upon one of he
most : fashionable streets, found that the
.place to which he had been directed was
a very palace. Obsequious servants open
ed the loor, and when he inquired for"'
their mas ter, Ushered him into a room
where w ero.many evidences of wealth and
station. A stern4ook ang,gmy-headed man
advanced and enquired his business: ":I .
came to talk - to you about your son." " I
had . -a son Joseph, once. He is dead to me
nowe I &owued him long ago for his
crimes and worthlessness. Don't talk
about him to me." if your boy
•nr, but he won't be yours !Ong. He is
Sick 'nigh unto death, and he thinks ho
could die happy if you would only see him
once more. It is not much he asks of yon."
The haughty heart melted, The proud
'lips quivered, "nd tha relenting father
asked eagerly; "-Where is my boy, my
son Joseph? 'ls he sick? Why did not
h rme know before that ho needed
e ? Take me to him."
They got into a carriage and drove to
the wretched tenement-house. When the
father looked upon his poor, sick boy, ho
broke out into sobs of remorse and love.
Kneeling by him ho wept over him and
said,: " Why didn't you send me word
that :you needed me, _Joseph ?" "0 !
father,- ~,...I did not desereve anything at
your hands k but when I found that I'd
got to die, - it seemed to me that I 'could I
not bear to go withont.your forgiveness."
"My poor bey !. lid have forgiven you
tong ago if I'd known you wanted me to."
Then the sick man rested in his father's
arms and told him,as well as he was able,
what. Christ hid done for him. - Ho told
how the Son of Man had. , Sought him out
in the depths of want and misery, and,
had come to liii help in the hofir of sorest
need. So the poor felloW passed away,
sweetly trusting to One who came to 'save
the lost. , .

Mr. Moons then offers ups brief and,
earnest prayer foi all the lost. He asks
Christ to Pity:the rumseller and therum

they no longer run away from se kind
and loving a friend. He prays very ten

asks that Ministers of the Gospel may

was had on the farm of J. M. Fox, in To
wanda township, on Saturday morning
last, an 4 was witnessed by several gentle
men, including members of the press'
from this place. The machine with which
the trial was made weighed six hundred
and forty pounds. The'cutter-bar was
five feet in length. The -grass cut would
average three tons to the acre. ,The ma;
chine worked beautifully, cutting the
gras.s smoothly and almost noiselessly.
Several farmers present said the grass
was left by the machine in the best pessf
ble manner for curing. All present pro
nounced the working of the machine a de
cided success, and as it can be built for a
far loss sum than any other Mower now
on the market, there is no ;doubt , that it.
will command a large sale. We congrit
