:I $J i-? VA D 4 tlt NDI Psatint—The Cluistian is like a be , leagnered city,. about which the enemy have drawn double 4ines of eireonniaibition, and suriutmded .it on every aide, and guarded every outlet, and cut it off from all. communication with its friends and alliea. Thus shut up in the midst of enemies, the situation of its inhabitants seem desperate. But there is still a secret passage left open, which the invading army cannot 'Ouch. Through this, the inhabit ants can send daily messages totheir .prince, and receive from him in return the Jsupplica of provision and iinitriunition which they need. So long as this passage remains open, they are safe, and the enemy shall not prevail against theca. But if they neglect to use, it, even for a day, they suffer; and should it 'once, through their own folly , . be closed against them, they must perish. The' Swearer and his Hying-lion. During a protracted meeting in Kentuc ky, a gentleman of some note called upon -his minister..

The case was this: He Once had a lovely boy; an only eon; this beloved child gait evidence of early piety. When per haps not more than nine years of age, he was laid upon a sick:and dying bed. He I talked. sweetly. about Jesus, and much • about heaven. On one occasion, when near his end, •he called his father to his bedside, and with great respect and affec tion said, 2, Papa, I wish to make one re (Pus' 't or ypu before I die." f'What is it, my darling?" said the weeping father, bending over his beloved and pow drink "0, my dear eon, father •is do. anything in the world for yod; what do you wish nao to do?" • ; Papa," said the dying child, ." dear pap's, if you please, don't swear any more." The father, as he narrated the affecting incident, wept—tests rolling d?we his , cheeks. Oh, sir," s a id he ,to his minis . ter,' ," I bevel., had anything clime with such power to my soul before, as, this lan guiigia of my dying boy, `Papa, dear papa, if you please, don't swear any more.' Sir, it was blessed to my-aoul." The neat day the man was seated at the 'table of the' Lord; and may've not sup pose that when he comes to die his cherub boy will hover over his dying bed, and be the first to ivelchme his happy spirit home to glory and to God? PRAY 2.IIICII—PaAY wa.L.L.—Felix.
