TILE D.ITLYE BOOK.. alder how dreary this w rid wouldlie - without this blessed BI u oh. ; Let us BY imv. 1 ;,47. T. ILENBT. I be diligent is the study of it; andlOok- The celebrated novelist, Sir Walter , ing steadfistly on the inane. of Jesus Scott, during his last sickness, when he Christ, which is presentql in its pages. had returned from Italy to die in, his pure and splendid, full of . grace - and native land, called upon his nurse to truth, may we through Allis life become bring him the book; and his nurse ask- more and more conformed to the disiine. ing him what book, his reply was, "the image, and finally be made partakers ' of Bible, to be sure: that is the book, and the divine nature. • . L the only book to which the definite:ar- I tide can properly' be applied." The Bible is! emphatieally the book. There are other books, multitudes of them; Scott himself wrote other books; but there is one book, which not man, but the Creator of man_wrote, and only one such book, and that is the Bible! Of all books in all languages: it is -- "first in point of general and individual in ter, st, is complete and true, is connect ed with the commencement and the end of. time, is a narrative of the vast, and a lesson for the future."' It- may be very naturally aske,l, if the Bible is such a wonderful book. and every thing of human production -is tikiged with the imperfections of its au thor, whly dOyou rut any other book into our hands? To which we reply:— • For 6as same reason as guide-boards are put by the road-side; not to detain the traveller, but to dilect him aright on his journey. So we write the tract or mag-, azine only to lead you to, study. and value the Bible more. Especially do we deem - this needful iu the present day,= as there are so mauy false guides that wonid misdirect you and lead you to ,a precipice frcim which you might fail and perish. • The press is now teeming with publications which, however they may be gilded over with profe•eaons of lib erality—freedom from the prejudices of bigotry—or of profound e seliolarship, are so many envenomed shafts aimed at the vitals of our Christianity, insinuat ing a deadly poison, which, but for a timely antidote, may burn and agonize the victims of skepticism forever. •' But even the very best of human pro ductions are not to be allowed an equal ity with the word of God. Well has it been said of the sacred writings,. that; "inditel under the influence 'of Him to whom all hearts are known they suit mankind in all csuditions, grateful as the manna which descended from heav en and conformed itself to every palate. The fairest productions of human wit, after a few•pernsals, like gathered flow ers, wither' in our bands and lose their fragrance; but tber.e unfading plants of paradise become, us we are accustomed :to them, more and more beautiful; their bloom appears to be daily brightened; fresh odors are-emitted, and new sweets extracted from them. He Who hath once tasted their excellences will desire to taste them yet again; and he.who tastes them oftenest will relish them best." Let no man's heart fail him, therefore, on account of the assaults that are made on his faith in thesßible, seeing that for ages it has survived all the malice and - power of.its eudmies, and still— " Like some tall cliff it lilts its awful form, Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm; • Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread, Eternal sunshine settles on its head!" Nearly one hundred years ago, Paine, the infidel of execrable memory, boast ed that he had "gone through the Bible as • a woodigau witti his axe, and cut down all the trees in the Christian Eden; so that however the priests might try to stick them in again, they would never grow." Impious man! he has passed to the tribunal of thejudge whom he defied; but the truths he thus boasted Of having demolished, are still living, yea more, are farikinmroot in every land, spread ing their brUnches, and yielding their „fruit `0 the eons of men. Hnme,h more subtle and philosophical adversary, exclaimed iu a tone of exult ation, '"Methinks I see'the twilight of this Chriitianify;" meaning the twilight of the evening which would darken into the night of Athoism;'but being pur blind, he had mistaken the time of day. It was the twilight of the morning, Which has ever !duce been shining more and more - unto th.q.-Arfect day. Nor need we fear the more recent attn ck which have been made on this sacred volume, especially those upon the in spiration of the Old Testament.. From these hostile critics, we can appeal to Him who has put his stamp of approval. upon them - by repeated references and quotations. How refreshing it is to turn from these distractions in high places to the dwellings of the pious poor, whose per sonal experience of the truth and pre ciousness of the sacred volume is atower of strength .that no sophistry of over turn! I read the other day Of such an instance of simPle faith in the case of a poor widow. of more than four score, years. She had her, own marginal ref erences. ' For against one - - precious promise was put a large 1': Upon being asked its meaning, she said, ."01), that means precious." Iu the margin of au, other were the letters T. I'., wiliCli she said meant "tried and proved." The learned critics won't& fiud such an in wrought experiinent of faith itupregeti l)l.• tl,all - their assaults; and,. bl-sse,l ,he GO, there are tens of thousands' who lire the same inward witness to "the tnitli as it is in Jesus," and who :"be- Ileve to the saving of their souls." 3 The unlettered christian may not be ,Lbla le answer all the cavils, or unravel all the sophisms of the skeptic, but he Las such a conviction of the truth of the I.liLle wrought iu his soul by the Holy .Ghost, that you might as well try to couviuee him that' there is neither light nor heat in the sun, as to say there is . not truth; precioUs, saving truth, inithe Bible, - which has been the guide of his youth; the stay of his manhood, fold the staff of his age, anCkwhich, he knows . moreover, will illumine the dark valley' of death; while it assures him of "an in-' heritsnce incorruptible, undefiled, and that fadetl not nway - ." . A wise and good man tells of a dreaiu he once Ind, perhaps it was a waking . dream. I was, that on a sudden all the Bibles in e land had their words and chapters b otted out, so as to contain' nothing but white paper. From other books 'also all scripture texts were as I suddenly last, so that nowhere could he found a single Bible word. It was as if God had said, "The people Jo not love my book tis they might, nor care to read it; they shall not therefore ha'e it any longer." Everywhere tbere was sadness ilea fear. A great lamp seemed tb havagone out, which had shone upon' the way to heaven, arid all wens left iu darkness. "Give us backoar Bibles; ob„ give us back oar Bibles was the cry. So God heard the prayer at last, and one day the lost words shone forth again. and filled the land with joy.

I DINING WITH A TWO-H r EADED GIRL.-- In response to an•invitatiOn from Mr. J. R. Smith,_ a Star I reporter took breakfast with Mille Christine, the double headed girl,. yesterday morning. The interesting young lady, who po seises two heads, four arms, four feet, sings duets, waltzes; polkas. and boasts of several accomplishments, and has a suit of rooms at No. 51 East Ninth street. When the reporter arrived all was in readiness for the morning. meal. Five - persons comprised the party. "The weather. is very oppresive," WAS .the greeting of the double-headed girl, as she shook the right hand - of the scribe with two of her four Lands. The left side smiled serenely and fanned itself vigorously with of the disengaged hands. There was a great deal said at table, but the guests were there for the purpose of taking breakfast with Millie Christine and omitted'to make a note of the conversation. he Nightepgale occupied one entire side of the table,and while one pair of her eyes was intent up on gazing on the well spread table, the other was looking out of the window with dreamy expression. Two plates were well filled with edibles and the work of destruction was begun: One-half of the lady had an especial fondness for fried chicken and toast, while the other would partake of noth ing but porter-house steak and fried potatoes. In the line of liquids , one half drank iced milk to the other's oof f4e, and two napkins were demanded and freely used. Somehow or other there was time found for talking to ward the close of the, meal, and the Nightengale spoke freely and intelli gently upon a number, of interesting topics. At times one head would make an assertion which its companion could not entertain and then an interesting and animated discussion would follow. Happily theseargurnents were amicably adjusted, and breakfast was finished in time for the donble headed lady to go to Bunnell's museum for the midday exhibit ion. - THE ' POPULAR CORNER ! GEO.

I prized very high. ly,he had a large bone spavin on one joint and a small one on the- other which made him very lathe; Iliad him under the charge of two vet en. nary mirgeons which failed to "cure him. I war one day reading the advertisement of Kendall's Spavin Cure,izathe Chicago Express. I determia. ed at once to try it, and got our druggists Lere to send for it, they ordered three bottles; I toot them all and thought I would give. it a thoror.,-;h trial, I used it according to -directions and the fourtlii day the colt ceased to be lame, and the lumps have disappeared. I used but one bottle and the colts limbs are as free from lump. and as smooth's'. any horse in the state. He Is et• tirely cured. The cure was so remarkable that I let two of my neighbors have the remaitto; two bottles, who are now using it. Very Respectfully, • &c., &c., Kendali's Spavin Cure ON HUMAN FLESH.
