JOHN WESLEY: MIS EARLY HOME
• AND FAMILY.
' kris. OLIPHANT.
", I have observed the clergy in all the
places through which I , have traveled," says
Ifishop Burnet•in-1113;• not-a-bard-or , diflieult - •
judge,—"Papists, Lutherans, Calvinists, and
•Dissenters; but of them all, our clergy is much
the most remiss in their labors in private, and
'the least severe in their lives:' "A due regard
to religious persons, places and thlngs.has scarce
in any age been more wanting," says Atter
, burs' in 1711. Twenty years later, the famous
Nonconformist Calamy laments the "real de
cay of serious religion both in the Church and
out of it." To this country and time, lying in
itotoranee, in that "sneering and insolent pro
fanity which is, of all others, the most hateful
condition into which humanity can falh John
Wesley was born—and not a day too soon.
The Reformer, whose influence upon his
generation was so extraordinary, is not one of
those who concentrate the spectator's atten
tion upon thentselves, or move him to passion
ate sympathy, adm ration, and love, blotting
- out, to some extent, the meaner earth. His
progress through life is rather that of a Moving
light which throWs gleams upon the darkling
Mass around it. His very cradle illtuninates a
_quaint.family pictureioppning tap tons one of
the still, pious households which broke With
their quaint religiousness and formal order the
level of reckless living. His father was vicar
of Epworth in Lincolnshire, a good man of
i Nonconformist lineage, but a zealous
Churchman; his mother, the daughter of
one of the ejected ministers. Mr. Samuel
Wesley had been driven oat of the Dissenting
body by the tierce sectarianism of the commu
nity ; his wife, with more remarkable individ
uality. " had examined the controversy between
the Dissenters and the Church of England with
conscientious diligence, and satisfied herself
that the schismatics were in the wrong."
Such a pair at the head of a large family in the
little parsonage among the fens developed
various quaint features of religious opiniona
tiveness which have worn out of fashion in
our day. Tke husband had gained his
benefice by a little book about the Revolution,
which he dedicated to Queen Mary. Years
after ' it struck the good man that at prayers his
wife did not say amen to his petition for Dutch
William • and he found, on • inquiry, that. to .
her the ling of the ReVolution was still. Prince.
of Orange, an unnatural usurper. She had
said nothing about her dissent from his
opinions on. this subject, being impressed,
as Southey Says, by a deep sense` of "the
duty and wiSdon of obedience." But in
this case, as in most others, it is evident
that the husband did not see the
beauty of that much commended but
highly unpleasant duty.. .He went ohm a pet,
as husbands when "obeyed". are too dpt to do,
and vowed never to see or communicate with
the schismatic again till she bad changed her
mind. This humorous incident is not, wever,
turned into a Moral lesson by any change of
mind on the part of Mrs. Susannah. The Kiug
died, which answered the purpose as well, rand
the husband came back; somewhat sheepishly *
one cannot but think, leaving the victory in
her hand. Another controversy ,of a less
amusing character whfch arose between them
slhcmts s the. duty. of. obe dience,.after.all„was_.
not slie first in Mrs. Wesley's mind. Her hus
band. evidently a self-Willed and hot-headed
man. thougha good and true one, was in the
habit of attending
. the sittings of Convocation,
"at an expense of money which he could ill
share from the necessities of so lame a tinnily,
and at a cost of time Which was injurious to his
parish." There was no ,afternoon service at
the chinch at Epworth during his absences;
and, with a curious foreshadowing of what
was to come, the clergyman's wife took in hand
a little domestic service on the Sunday even
ings, praying and reading with her children
and servants as a mother and mistress may.
But by degrees a few neighbors dropped
in, and Mrs. Wesley did not think it proper
" that their presence should interrupt the_
duty of the hour." The thing grew, so that
at length thirty or 'forty people would
be present at their domestic worship*. Mr.
Wesley. busy with his Convocation squabbles,
heard and took fright at this unusual proceed
ing. It does not semi to have moved him to
the length of coming back and looking after
his own business; but he made haste to write
to her that her conduct "looked particular"
-.-that, as the wife of a public person it
behooved her to exercise discretion—and that
— she (eight to employ some one else to read, for
her. To this she answered at length, in a letter
which most singularly anticipates many 'of the
views afterwards proclaimed by her son :
• "As for your proposal of letting some other
per' on -- read; alas! - you - don't consider wliiit a
people these are. 1 don't think one man among'
them could read a sermon without spelling a
good part of it. Nor has any of our family a
voice strong enough to be heard by such a num
ber of people. • . _
"But there is one thing about which I am
much dissatisfied—that is, their being present
at family prayers. 1 don't speak of any con
. cern I . am under barely because so many are
present.. For those who have the honor of
speaking to the great and holy God need not
be ashamed to speak before the whole world;
but because of my 'sex 1 doubt. if it • is proper
for me to present the prayers of the people to
God. Last. Sunday I would fain have dismissed
them before prayers; but they begged so earn
estly to stay 1. durst not deny them."
The letter throws a strange light upon the
rude little village community, of which there
was scarcely one who could read without spell
ing, and on the first throb of Spiritual and in
tellectual life which thrilled, through means of
an "awakening" sermon, Into the dull and
nameless mass. The brave, pious, warm
hearted woman, with her troop of little children
about her knees—her husband wandering
alahlt, eN•ithintly for considerable periods, or
• such a story would be ineuniprehensible—her
mind strong enough to pass conventional
boundaries, but not too strong for religious
scruples about her sex—makes a very quaint
and at the same time a very attractive picture:
Jacky, x horn his mother took apart on Thurs
day, was John Wesley, the prophet of his age:
and there is little to wonder at in his futitre
life when we trace it to such a beginning.
Mrs. Wesley, however had not come to attend
of the matter by this letter. The curate, en
raged iwy such an invasion of his province,
wrote complaining that a conventicle was held
in the parsonage ; anti the absent husband re
plied again in alarm, forbidding the meetines.
Then Airs. Wesley availed herself of that
Nveapon which law and virtue had put into her
Inuallie offered to obey. 1)o not tell me
.that you iff'sire Hie to do it, for that will not
satisfy .my cousciewe," she says, " but
send me your positive cosvniantl;!. " Wesley.
made no further objections," says• Southey,
who tioe7s not see any hauler in it.. lie was,
"perhaps ashamed,' the poet thinks. It is
curious enough, considering how much we
make in theory of the notion of conjugal ohe":
diNice, that there is no such prompt mode of
driving a husband wild as a meek proposal on
his wil'e's part to obey him. When it conies to
that fatal point the well-conditioned male ma
ture has nothing left but to give in. So little
has the prettiest theory to do with the actual
necessities of life.
We me tempted to quote from another letter
of this remarkable woman, concerning the
mode in which Jacky and the rest were brought
up. After the most, detailed laws (evidently
unalterable-as Holy Writ) of their management
front the"cradle upwards in respect to external
habits, she goes on to the discipline of the
mind
" In order" (Says Mrs. Wesley) "to form the
minds of children, the first thing to be doue is
=ER
to Conquer, qieir will and bring them to an
obedient temper. To inform the understand
ing is A work of time, and must, with children,
proceed by slow degrees, as they are able to
hear it; but the subjecting the. will is a thing
which must be done at once, and the sooner
the"betfOr. Whorthe wilhos a child - is totally
subdued, and it is brought to revere and stand
in awe of its parents, then a great many childish
Inllies and inadvertencies may be passed by.,
Some should be overlooked and taken nonotite
of, and others mildly reproved ; but no wilful
transgression ought; ever to ;be forgiven chil
dren without chastisement, more or less,
as the stature and circumstances of the
case require. • • • They were , quickly
made to understand they might have nothitig
they cried for, and instructed to speak
handsomely for what they wanted; • • •
nor were tney ever permitted to call each other
by their proper name without the addition of
brother or sister. None of them were taught
to read till five years old, except Kezzy, in
whose case I was overruled, and she was more
years learning than any, of the rest-had been
months. , The way of teaching was this. The
day before a child began to learn, the house.
was set in order, every one's work appointed
them, and -a charge given that none should
come into the room from nine to twelve, or
-from two to five,- which _you know were,. our_
school hours. One day was allowed the child
wherein to learn its letters, and each of them
did in that time learn all its letters, great and
small, except Molly and Nancy, who were a
day and a half before they knew them per
fectly, for which I then thought them very
dull; but since I haye observed how long
many children are learning the hornbook I
have changed my opinion. • • There were
several by-laws observed among us. I mention
them here, because I think them useful. 1. It
had been observed that cowardice-and fear of
punishment often leads children into lying, till
they get a custom of it which they cannot
leave. To prevent this, a law was made that
whoever was charged with a fault of which
they were guilty, if they would ingenuously
confess it and promise to amend, they should
not be beaten. This rule prevented a ereat
deal of lying, and would have done more if one
in the family would have observed it. But he
could not be prevailed upon, and therefore was
much imposed upon. * • • 3... That no
child should ever be chid or beaten twice for
the same fault, and that if they amended they
should never be upbraided with it afterwards.
That every signal act of obedience, espe
pecially when ; it,orossed upon their own incli
nations, shosild',7lsi3, always commended and
frequently rewarded according to the-merits of
the case. 5. That if ever any child performed
an act of obedienee, or did anything with an
intention to please, though the performance
was not well, yet the obedience and intention
should be kindly accepted.. 6. That property
be inviolably preserved, and hone suffered to
invade the property of another. in the smallest
matter, though it were but of the value of a
faulting or a pin. * * • This rule can
'lever be too much inculcated on the 'minds of
children, and from the want of parents or gov
ernesses doing it as they ought proceeds- that
shameful neglect of justice which we may ob
serve in the world. * * • 8. That no girl
he taught to work till she can read very well.
This' ider'arso 'is — BRAN to hu—eb‘;
served ; for the putting children to learn sewing
before they can read perfectly is the very reason
why so few women can read fit to be heard,
and never to be well understood."
The reader will feel that he is gazing into an
almost Dutch interior as he reads this code of
domestic law. The solemnity of it, the
minuteness, the sense of importance as of a
great ruler, the softly disapproving regretful
memory of Kezzy's mangled education in
ahich the lawgiver was overruled; and of the
more momentous regulation which "One of
the family" could not be made to ,observe,
strikes with a tender humor into the tale.
Clear enough,' "he"- who "could not be pre
ailed upian' to carry out a perfect system was
something of athorn in Mrs. Wesley's flesh. She
had to bear with him by times, as 'well as to
espect and honor him. Strange things happened
at Epworth to derange, had that been possible,
the minute method f the family. Wicked
parishioners whom Mr. Wesley admonished of
their sins, behaved themselves with a violence
characteristic of the age. Twice they tried to
set his house on fire, and at last, on a third at
tempt, did so, burning out the too zealous par
son, and all but sacrificingJacky,then six years
Old, in the flames. But these external troubles
were not all ; Some tricksy spirit. got
~
pos
session of the house, uttering dismal groans,
rumbling up and down stairs, sometimes with
the step, of a man, sometimes with heavier in
artienlate-sormds. Knocks - were - heard - about 7
the beds, and in various parts' of the house,
rn high nobody, alas ! was then skilled to in
terpret. There were sounds of dancing in
empty rooms, of bottles breaking, and a bun
tired other iabolical-ridiculous noises. The
family at first were full of alarm, thinking the
sounds •were warnings of some approaching
calamity, the parents characteristically appre
hending danger to their oldest son. "If thou
art the spirit of my son Sammy," said the
perturbed father, "I pray, knock three knocks
and no mine ; r.but to the great relief of the
household no answer was made to this appeal.
In time, however, the devil ceased to alarm the
cheerful house. The young people became
used to him, and 'adventured little jokes on his
chat acter and propensities. The sisters gave
each a different account to the absent Sammy
as soon as he was ascertained to be safe and
sound. Emily . is. indignant that her father
should have imagined it '‘ to be sonic of us
Voung women that sat up late and made a noise.
Ilitincredulity,_aad especially his imputing
t w us, or our lovers, made me, 1 own,
of its continuance till lie was, con
vinced," adds the candid girl. "I believe it to
be witchcraft," she says, a little after. "About
a year since there was a disturbance at a town
near us, that was undoubtedly witches; and if
so near, why may they not reach us? "
1 do so really believe it to be one (i. e. a
\V itch), that I would venture to tire a pistol at
it." sister Sukey, for her part, gets tired of'
the noisy visitor, whom the girls had nick
named Jeffrey, their very fright evidently be
ing unable to centiliter fun. Send me some
news, for we are secluded from the sight or
hearing of any vernal thing, except Jeffrey,"
v, rites Susannah, although she has just de
scribed a new incident, how, " to my father's
no small amazement, his trencher danced on
the table a pretty while without anybody stir
ring the table, when lo! an adventurous
wretch took it up and spoiled the sport, for it
triable() still ever after." The whole story is
recorded with a Mingled seriousness and hu
mor and perfect belief; which is very quaint
and amusing. Mr. Wesley loses his temper
and calls the devil names, threatening it with
a pistol on one occasion. Samuel at a distance
gravely Writes to ask, "Have you dug in the
place where the money seemed poured at your
feet ?" although even he yields to, a sense of
humor when he is told that the fiend objects to
the prayers for the King. "Were 1 the King
myself, I should rather Old Nick was my enemy
than my friend," he says. Southey, who gives'
full details of these marvelous occurrences
without the least attempt (which indeed would
hate been folly) to assail the veracity of, the
united family, has no words strong enough, at
an after period to condemn Wesley's belief in
the' extraordinar y eileets which were produced
by his preaching—the bodily agonies, cries,and
convulsions, which, however little we may
understand them. are phenomena too well es
tablished to be set aside as mere delusions, It

LONDON 110 OK STALLS.
The correspondent of the Boston Dally Ad
vertiser writes as follows about one of the 'ohs
sewer attractions of London:
There are very feW, in London with active
literary duties who do not indulge in the luxury
of 44-stallatitilip., , , We.hayeeelebrated'coliees
'thins in largiithoronghfires ; inedester benches
a little way out on the pavement of by-streets,
tinder the shelter of canvas ; still smallerhand-,
fuls in dull cow is and alleys all but deserteitof
men; and shops where books, old' iron and'
second-hand musical instruments are mixed in
interesting disorder. The hours I have spent at
these places in turn have taught Me 'that.none,
should be despised, by the genuine beoleaiollee•
tor. You meet • angel-books • unawares..
In the oddest. heaps of rubbish price
less' treasures 'am ocexsionally . found:
How 'they get there I 'cannot tell;
but so iris. I have :tidied In vain for a certain
rarity in all the a swell "second-hand Second-hand shops;
and have found it at last under the light of a
flickering oil-lamp, on a rickety stand in a dirty
street frequented by. coatermongera and street
hawkers. Most litettry Men have thii rage of
buying for a while. Some deny themselves
necessities to indulge it, and nothing, can be
more ingenious than the excuses such a man
will make for the excess. All these will read
with appreciation an account which some inti
mate friend of the late Sir W. Hamilton has
published, within the last few
days, of . the philosopher's habits.
t~ir, , was, rapacious as a
gatherer 'of sidunies, and when' he had them
he nursed them tenderly, refreshing their bin Z
ings with his own hand and discovering un
guents for giving them strength and comeliness.
In the common mind there is a notion that a
life spent In a useless research of this kind is
a life spent in dreary hard work. "There
could not," says the writer, "be a more utter
mistake, It is the most deightful of all likes,'
--a, life in which the business of the man Is also
his ruling pleasure. The excitement that
draws the sportsman to the chaae, ,, even that
of the gatnbler at the table,--is as no
thing in comparison." But Sir
was certainly a bibliomaniae. ,- own
shelves, rich as they were, never contented him,'
and the college library at. Edinburgh and the
nobler collection in the Advocates' Library,
were ransacked by him. The latter is the third
in size among British librarlea,' the British
Museum being the first and the Bodleian the
second. Sir William was for some years one
of the curators of the library, and it was a
courtesy to those who took the duties of a
curator riot to limit the nuniber of books they
might take to , theii— own. homes. There,
are marvellous stories about the num
ber of volumes in the great restoration follow
ing the close of his terse of office, and it is re,
memtered, that the volumes were conveyed
back to their-proper place of rest in a wagon:
In the annual fair in a couutrY town you
maY almost always rely upon the book stall
as, well as the wild beast show . andthe wax
work. There is a species of binding • and
getting up which seems designed for a'market
of this order. The type is usually fearfully
small and the covers_ neat— The majority ot
volumes are small in size, but in divinity they
run large. Cheap editions of Peregrine
Rickleitoderiek Random and Tom Jones were
once - the favorites amongst the older class of
novels, and a sentimental tale; called "St.
Clair of the Isles," is present, suppose; by
the hundred, M every fair in England.
In London a vile practice has
sprung up of exhibiting at the second
hand shoo long rows of gaudily covered books,
with' the title in showy gilt letters on the back ;
but the sight within stirpasss belief for shabbi
ness.- • The worst conceivable type and paper,
and cramped up pages and large margins; only
school-boys, who can read anything as they tan
eat anything, can possibly endure them. Many
of the book-sellers put boxes outside their
shops on whieli are announced respectively,
"All these Is. (Id. each," "All these" Is. each,"
"All these lid. each," and so on. You may,
constantly see gentlemen - of a clerical appear
ance at the chests,---poor dissenting ministers
from the provinces for the most part, to WhOla
cheapness is a condition in everything. The
sort of puzzled disappointment on their man-
tenances us thqy take up one book after
another is very familiar, to me. You see a
ftill-of-voltinuwart4ut_read_aixivaliAl
these at one shilling ••each;" and you instantly
feel,---now there must be one which will be
worth that to me. But in ninety cases out of
one hundred there is not. As you take up iu
•-- succession, a Turkish reading-book, volume
after volume of " verses," (verses are in the
majority, in all the chests, especially in those
under the heading 'Ail these at tirro-pcio7,,")
the third volume of a book of traVeis; a col
lection of missionary reports, l') years old ;
• letters on politeness; strong Alabamian tracts;
disused school-books of au ancient date. and
which were worthless at their best ; a work on
Mensuration,with a quarter of the leaves miss
ing,--a-succession of such surprises sadden you,
and you walk away with another mystery
added to life. At the better shops you speedily.
become known and your tastes are suited.
"I've something to-day which will just suit
you," says the bookseller as you enter. 'q've
put it by for you." Be Your proclivities what
they may,—antiquarianism, philosophy; the
ology,histom—the bookseller remembers them,
_and sore are the temptations he offers.
Does he know much of the contents"
have often asked myself this, and have never
answered it confidently. My impression is
that hiS knowledge generally is au outside one.
exactly estimates the author's market
value ; he is aware of the nice distinctions be
tween books on the same topic ; he can even
talk of the writer's characteristics ; but as a
rule he has not read ten pages of any of the
volumei be. purchases and classifies and sells.
The human mind has been his study indeed,
and when he goes to, large sales of books of
"a learned baronet just deceased," he displays
considerable knowledge of human nature; titt,t
it is only as seen snits relations to cash.
Fusin OH..."That which we call a Bose."
. The great prodker - of artificial perfumes is
fusil oil, or amylic alcohol, a substance gen
arated during the distillation of whisky from
potatoes. Its' normalodor is very unpleasant,
but in certain combinations it gives rise to the
sweetest toilet perfumes. Drop amylic alcohol
on platinum black. It immediately oxidizes
to an acid which gives the smell of valerian.
Distil'atnylic alcohol with acetic acid obtained
by the decomposition of acetate't , f potash with
sulphuric acid in the retort, and an oily product,
smelling exactly like the Jargonette pear, is
generated. Distilling with chromic acid
obtained hi an analogthis manner to the above,
and an oil smelling like apples is produced.
Cognac and' grape Oils are imitated by 'the
action, of concentrated Sulphuric acid upon the
same radicals. Products having the odor of
bananas, oranges, and Many her kinds of
fruit, are successfully imitated by analogous
methods. But the odors produced are not,
by any means, all ofthein pleasant. Those of
disgusting plants, bed-bugs, squash-bugs, &c.,
&c., are equally attainable, though not in
generatrequest. •

For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs.
ouch as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely , and so deeply
upon the confidence of mankind, as this excellent
remedy for pulmonary complaints. Through a ham'
series of years, and among most, of the races
men it has risen higher and higher in their estima
tion, as it has become better known. Its uniform
character and power to cure the various affections
of the lungs and throat, have made it known as a re
liable protectbr against them. While adapted to
milderforms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most effectual remedy that can
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerous affections of the throat and lungs. As a pro
vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should
be kept on hand in every faittily, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject to colds and .coughs, - all
kihould be
_provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers of cases where the Ills
ease Seemed settled, have been completely cured,
,and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry Pectoral. So complete is its mastery'.
over the disorders of the Lungs and- Throat, that,
the most obstinate of them yield to It. When noth
ing else could reach them, under the Cherrg Pec
toral they subside and thsappenr.
Singers and Piddle Speakers find great pro:.
tcction from it.
Asthma. is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
nrourh Ws is generally - cured by taking the
Cherry P,ertorrrl in small and frequent doses.
So generally arc its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them hem, or tb mein
than . Mislire the publie that itu guaLEica are billy

Ayer's Ague Cure,
For Fever and Agne Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &e.,
and indeed all the affections which twice
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poisons.
As its name Implies, it does Cure. and does not
fail. Containing neither Anenie, Quinine, Bisimith,
Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowise insures any . patient. The
number and:lmportance of its cures to the ague dis
tricts, are literally beyond account, and we believe
without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine.
Our pride is gratified by the acknoivletkonentsi we
receive of the radical cures effected hi idistimito
eases, and where other remedies had wholly Whist.
Unacclitnated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic locrditie , i, will be pro

For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, It is
an excellent remedy, producing many truly re
