honorable trait of eharacnn than this can

ions or infidels, are , proud to put reliance
in those who make the bible their con&
dant, and whnie 441 thumbed pages shotv
the confidence viohich their owners possess
id it. ' '
A few pearls ago there dwelt in Ayr-'
shire an ancient couple, possessing of the

steps. A gallant nf fartfer becatie en

was every way worthy of her,, the. oia
folks consented, and as they were desiroaa
of seeing their beirii comfortable, the two
were Made one,: lit fpvi years 'time the
old people, were cOt down. and die) , fava
their bodies to the duet and theit.snn
the Creator. , •
The young farmer having heard much, , l
of the pr poised Ittnd,beyruid the sea gathet
ed togethr his duds, and selling such as
+'
were useless. packed up those calculated to
be of service to him at his new home.—
Some neighbors having die same itching
for adventure, sold off, their homes and,
homesteads and set sail for America.
. . .
Possessed of considerable property in
the shape of Tiller," this company were
not like the generality of emigrants, poor :
and friendless; but happy and full of hope
for the (inure. The first thing done after
the binding was to bring forth the old fami
ly Bible, and return thanks and praise to'
Him who had guided their bark uninjured
to a safe haven. And, as dhe farmers ob
ject in coming o this country was to pur
chase a farm and fallow his oectipatiopi
but little time was 'Spent in the city, hoar
rived in, and as his fellow-passengers had.
previously determined on their destination.
he bade thetn •farewell, and with a light
heart turned his-face towards the setting

On the banks of the Wabash, he fixed
no a farm, and having paitheash 'for one.
half he gave a mortgage for the bdance; -
payable in one year., Ilayieg steeked'hili
farm.and put.seekin the permit, - he reined
from his labor ~and patiently waited the
time when he might go forth and reap the
' harvest ; but alas! ino grain gladdened his
heart or rewarded .his toil. The feVer of
the ceuntry attacked him, and at the time
when the fields were white with, the full
ness of the laborer'? skill, death called him
home, and left his 'disconsolate wife•a wid
ow. and his citdyritild an. orphan. , •
We leave this first sorrow, and pass on
to the struggles. of the afflicted widoiv a
yearafterwatds, Tits time having arrived
when the mortgage was to be paid, she
borrowed the money of a neighbor who
had been very attentive to her husband
and herself, one who knelt at the same ta
ble to renew their professed obligations to
the Giver of all good. Hard and patient
ly did she toil to pay the sum .against the
proper time ‘• , but all would not do, fortune
Crowded, and she gave way to her accatnit
lated troubles. Disheartened) and distrait
ed, a he. relinquished the farm math,. stock
for a less sum than she owed her Christ
ian neighbor, who, not being satisfied with
that, put en execution on lierforniture. ,
On the Sabbath previous to the salts she
took - coinage, and strengthening herself
with=the knowledge. of having wronged no
one, , weat to the temple of the Esther, and
with a heart filled with humility , add love,
poured out her soul to " Hitn.Who turneth
not a way," and' having commened-side

.
turned to her desolate home.
Here her fortitude had like to have forgo.
