Have you riot' felt. its, biller experience? Your child treats you coldly ; he is lost to all feeling of love and esteem; dreads your took; shuns your society.

I knew a : young man, endowed by nature with gifts of mind and heart, which fitted hint for a ate- Mtn id society, and a happineas which he never exprrieuced. His chilitimsl and youth were pissed under the despotic iod. A father's froWn. -was alwayti before l'ather's smile, s norer: •He met no return for his affection, no encourage melt for his umbition. no smile for hiS prizes-,• no new* for trig diligimee and attention ; but liehe ' came soured by the severity of Ins punishments, mistrust succeeded confidence; love turned to ha ired; mutual reproschcs and quarrvils followed, and long before youth; reached manhood, he, was, an outcast flair)] his kchildhooffs home.

Aye! that be dues, and ibitterly too. Before he has ; reached this age of reason, they •are Sufficiently manifest. The, well of his affection is dry•--the buds of lave were nipped in childhood.

ONE .

Let any one who doubts this, read Rev. Mr. Kincaid s description of the pagodas in Itur mah,fourid in the .MissionaryMemorial,' from which the following is nn extract:, 'lt was near evening when we camp before Mengoon, the largest pagoda, oriymple, in the empire. The grandfather of the present reigning imonarch of Ilturmah reared this vast pile. ; Inthe 1 centre of the enormous structure, (coverngniany ncres,) in a room twenty cubits square, are placed . images of each member of the royal family, made of pure gold; and the amount of gold in each im age is equal in weight to the individual fur Whom 1 it was made; and also imarzes of each nobleman in' the empire, of pure white silver, and the Silver l weighed against each man. Every thing about this pagoda is on a scale - ef vastness almost over powering.

Among Iliose who have been thought 'Worthy of having their names enrolled on the semi lof fame, military heroes have ever stood pre-eminent: Nor has this been so • without - considerable reason-- The genius, the' intellect, the -courage, the self devotion, the perseverance requisite to coustitete ' a true military hero are surely sufficient to render the character distinguished and the name immortal. But yet there is a -higher' niche-in the templo of fame than that which marks the name of the mere warrior; there is 'a warnil gratitude duefrom pos terity than Chat which is paid to the mere con queror ; - there is n brighter light beaming, from . human character titan has iever been shed by the most dazzling exploits of military heroes. •Itiat niche •pointk out the christian warrior. That gratitude is felttowards him who has achieved. the conquest of his own spirit, as well as that of his country's-enemies.' That light is kindled by the character of him who relies upon the justice of 'his eaose for conquest—upon the artn of the Great Rider of nations for support and guidance—and upon the great principles of religion contained in' tile bible, as the sure , basis of human• government. and- human happiness. Such was AV ashingtOn. And was he not better than "he, that taketh a city'!"„ - 1 Was he nut greeter too than the greatest of mere I human conquerors? And in pursuing this sub ject, in its connixion with the. text, it will be my object lb show that WaShington attained the em inence on which he confessedly stands mainly by_ beingl goon man. -He was a warrior of the very .1 highest staufp—olte ' whose Cheek never blanched at the approach I'ef danger; whose spirit never cowered at the thou Ott of death; whose courage I never quailed on : the field of battle. But 'yet he.i was a Christian warrior. He ever obeyed the in-! junction of ou'itsa,viour to the query elate soldier; ' "What shall we do'!" . .-Do Violence to no man." Did he leave his quiet and peaceful, home, take up the sword and march fortis at the hr ad pf -our armies.. determined to croupier or die? it - was not thatlhe "battle of the Warrior, which is•ever with "tor!fused, noise, and garments' rolled in blood," was pleasing to him.

And however' ignob'e arid unmanly some may think it, to be a humbhr follower of the meek' and lowly Jesus, NVastungton thought not so.. He thought it rather en-nobling than demeaning to sit at the feet of such a Master; and when'. r on the eve of battle or at his own quiet home; whether presithng at the council of war in perilous limes, or sitting iri the chair of State in troliblous times; wherever he was, in whatever and howevtl deeply erigagetl, ' he found tune tier devotion—tithe to commit himself, his interests, his country into the hands of his God in solemn. fervent prayer. This was the secret of his gl•ezl , :es; with such a spirit, thus subdued; the must brilliant successes could not putt him up with vain gory, since he looked upon them all as so litany instances of the divine favor, so many deninnsirations of the ap proval of God. The greatest temptations to domihion could not corrupt liiin; . for he viewed government placed in his hands as a simple trust , for which he was to tender a strict account, and 1 the-more weighty the trust, the less eager was he to have it repose upon him; Mar •Would he hese borne it at all save for his country's, sake. How dillerent was he from almost all conquerors. Hose 'very different from Alexander, Caesar, or Napoleon! They were great, yea the greatest of conquerors. The greatest "takers of cities." But alas they did not rule Ulna:selves. Alexander, after Waving per- formed prodigies of valor, achieved the nii*htiest conquests and causedtlie world to tremble at the mention of his name, suddenly fell from his almost superhuman elevation to a proportionable depth.— The conqueror ,of nations was conquered by his 'own passions, thus proving that the most power-- 11bl, as well as the most dangerous enemy, man has. to contend with is himself.' ,Cx.,ra, at the head of the ariniea,of Republican-Rerne,lWas invincible, lit.
