A little child,
A little meek-faced, quiet village child,
tint singing, by bar cottage door at eve,
A low, street Sabbath song. No human car
Caught the faint molody—ti human eye
Beheld the,upturned aspect, or the smile
That wreathed her,inneeetit lips the while they
breathed
The oft•repented harden of the hymn,
"Praret . Go , 1 I Praise ti )1
A seraph by the throne
In the full glory stood, With eager hand,
Ile smote the golden harp-strings, till a flood
or harmony uu the celeitial air
Welled forth, unceasing. Then with a great
voice
He sang the "Holy, Holy, evermore,
Lord (Ind Almighty I" and the eternal courts
Thrilled with the rapture, and the hierarchic.,

That we mainot weaken the moral im
pression by dividing your minds among a
variety of objects, we shall confine our
selves to two topics, in forming a right
opinion on which you obtain a touchstone
to all the rest :
L. The first favorite amusement incon
sistent with popular morals to which we
shall refer, is DANCING.
When we say that it is prejudicial to
morality, we are far from asserting that
all who from want of caution or reflection
have been entangled in this or other sinful
amilsements are deliberate atia canietts
enemies of public morals. But we do say
they are culpable for not bovine informed
themselves on the subject; and if thoy
love the truth. thav will thank tho:oi who,
having ponderel the 'natter under a sense
of responsibility to I; of, desire to give
Le t ree directi,n 10 the ppular mind

comistent Christians of every name, lint
even worldly gentilits esnonies

tate
The aping is kept up even after it
is superametted, mid the ohsegitiousuess is
manifested though it has become ridieu
dots to tlimm whom it is thought to flatter.
re. tile as this reason is, when emnpare , l
with others, it will be the strongest we
eau urge, to those with whom the names
of duty and of God have less weight
than the approval of the fashionable world
—those who are brave enough to risk the
vengeance of hlim "who can destroy both
-mul and body in hell," but too cowardly
to endure the smile of the silly and the
sneer of fools.
2. We assert, moreover, that dancing is
in conflict with dm te whinge of the BI
IILE: It is true that dancing with its
present peculiarities was unknown in Bi
ble times, nod therefore not an object of
direct reprobation. The dancing there al
luded to with approbation, had nothing in
common with that to which we give the
same moue, except that it was it measured
bodily movement. It wren a solenta reli
gious act.--a, part of worship, connected
with the services of the sanctuary,. per
formed with other devotional nets, by day,
riot mostly by the young, never by the
sexes together, and no wore :111 amuse
invot than prayer itself. Thus Miriam
and the women of Israel connected it with
the solemn sougs of praise to God for the
deliverance of Israel from the Egyptians.
David danced bofore the Ark of Jehovah ;
and in the time of the Saviour "all the El
ders, the 'factotum', of the 'Sanhedrin); the
rulers of the Synagogue, he doctors of the
Schools. and other persons deemed wrier
able for their age and piety, danced togeth
er in the court of the temple, to the sol
mon •pound, of : the temple music, ev
ery evening during the feast of taber
nacles."

If we turn to , the • spirit of the Bible,
,we shall not remain, long in doubt as to its
decision on .this amusement. It tells us,to
"redeem the time." What so utterly

with Our whole soul, mind and ,heart.—
Nothing tends more effectually to drive.
Him eompletely from the soul—to turn
every thought away from Hint—to stir up
in the heart aversion and tear towards
Hint, than, dancing. The Bible tells us ui
have the mind of Christ. ',I It creates a
shudder like that 'of ,blas Dimly, to intimate
that it was possible for (Tim to have 'sanc
tioned by his example what 'we know as
dancing. Would net the most ardent de
votee of the dance consider it as utterly
overthrowing any claims of Christ to be
the Redeemer of the world, had it been
on record that lie had personally partici
pated in such a scene ? We aro told to
be followers of the saints. Did they
partake in or countenance amusements of
this sort ?
The. Bible teaches us to pray: "Lead
us not into temptation." Who can lay
his hand open his heart and deny
that be tlirro•is himself into manifold temp
tations by engaging iu the dance ? The
Bible teaches purity. Tho donee can ho
demonstrated to lead directly to every
form of licentimsness. The Bible warns
us against the world, and forbids us to be
conformed to it The dance is the crea
ture of the world and its fleshly lusts.—
No regencratcd heart loves it. Nu sancti
fied soul could find delight oven were
it not clear that lied had not expressly
or virtually forbiddeu it. There is not a
chapter of the New Testameut, which, if
caremily real and thoroughly felt in all
its iteaveuly tendencies, will not eomplote
ly destroy all appetite for the revels of the
ball-ruom Even if we could allow that
the r• teas any force in 'tie :ipologies offer
ed for it, still the Bible would decade a

pearance of evil ;'' aud hero-is 60111111 1 11111 g
which to ail Christians and reffeetiooiien
is leaug,lit with peril. • The Bible teaClies
us that where we are in doubt of the mor
al pr Triet.y, of an act, God combonns us
if we commit it. And what dancer is tree

3. It: this matter, as everywhere else,
the wor d of Goa appears as the hest and
safest guide to the welfare both of body
and soul. Dancing is injurious to. both.
It is the frequent cause of bodily disease.

but all will admit that there are other

qually with dancing, even under the most

it is possible to conceive of it. But in all

their souls. It is, could it oven be shown
to be good exercise, like that dangerous
remedy. of ardent spirits, which never leiols
a man as rapidly toward health as it does
toward drunkenness. But dancing is not

If this reproach be true, it is 'a weighty

Such is the language whielt shows the ad
