MT DEAR Fur.END:—As - we lave seen,
this passage teaches r ue union with Christ,
it specifies some of the benefits. of this
Union; and it shoWs' its Author.

benefits of, this union wisdom, and right

God; of him are ye in Christ Jesus---:

he that gis44th, whim' glory in the Lord.
—l. Cor. LI 30, !L -
Here, then, is the' only , theme—the' only
source, cause, and foundation—of glorying,- ,
which the Gospel anthorizes or countenancea.
He that &meth, let him glory in the Lord;
in the Lord, the author and finisher of
faith, the author and finiiher of salvation;
in the Lord, who planned and who executes
the scheme of redemptirtii.-12Cor: i 31 ;
Heb. xii : Glory in the Lord;
vation is by grace; it, is of God and`. not of
men. They Whoi receive Jeans Christ, and
are born again, who are united to him by
faith, and are in him -creatures, are
born,'not of blood, nor of the will 'of the
flesh, nor of the . will of man but Of- God.
—John i: " can not. 'glory in

Again, we have here a glimpse of' some
of the links in the golden and glorious
chain of salvation. This chainisTast,at the'
one end in God'ereternal throne; it reaches
dowp from , `heaven, to it takes hold
.on poor ruined and lost men, and 'draws'
' them up to the skies, and' inkireth thefii . the
Companions of angels and ,of Ged's own
blessed Son. It begins with. God, and . ends
with God. It starts in the gracious and
unchangeable purpose of the infinite Jeho
vah, choosing some to life and constituting
Jeans Christ the legal Head of his people;
it progresses onward in the Mediatorial work
of Jesus Christ, executing what he under
took in the behalf of those who were given
him; it shines forth in the application of
redemption by the ever.blessed Spirit, in the
successive steps of which Jesus Christ is of
God made wisdom, and righteousness, and
sanctification, and redemption to those who -
are in him by a spiritual, and saving union : ;
its links bind the whole body of the elect
of. every , name and nation .in one
,common
brotherhood, and it brings them one after
another, as Arophies of redeeming
. grace„

regalded as,..the most. Valuable . acquisition
made Fto, the, list, of fruits for many years.

The , shapetof the fruit; it mill,be seen, is
not that;nfs- the wild blackberry, but reeem
bles the H6vey!slSeedling7strawberry. We
are, inclined to the , opinion that it is an acci,
dental cross of the common •hlackberry, •and
the dewberry. We have been led to this
conclusion Ai:kir-the folloiring considiratione.
The 'first Year ihe plants trail:Oki:the ground;
very much like the dewbe;rljr, but afterwarda
they groW ; Oprightly,' very .. stonily, front" ten

from the poor 'soil. The editor of the Ar.

Mr. Charles .Downing, in 'the Horticul
turfst, thus speaks of it
"Having heard 'a good deal said about
the New Rochelle Blackberry, for, the past
year or two, and knowing that many of the
new fruits, were, over r praised, , I made a
special visit; a few days since; to see for
myself,. aud= I eau assure you I was well
paid for my trouble.' There is no humbug
about it ; and the only wonder ia, that it
has not been more , generally introduced and
propagated before. The fruit is large and
sweet. It is;-an enormous bearer; indeed
the . quantity (considering the large size of
the trait;) csurprised no, and the berries
werearfect.'
"As toits '
size 'it will surprise most per
sons who see it fo r thefirst-time. At Nor- '
Walk, we saw several' stocks bearing' from
five to eight quarts each: We ~tried_ some ,
that had been gathered over forty lours,
and found the 'flavor, quite good. A quart
of them ; numbered seventy:one berries. We
picked' a quart from vibes:, which had re
ceived. no manure for two years put, and
from which the largest had just been se
lected 'for the New Haven, Horticultural
SOciety, and. found that seventy4wo Of' them
filled a quart 'measure.
"The - Once grow quite large—many of
them over an inch in diaineter-r-anethe
fruit hangs in clusters, in size more like

things, mother might; God knows so
much." " What boob are those On the
lower shelves of , the library 7" asked she.
"The large ones there are. so many of?" .
asked Henry. Henry went toward 'them;
and read; "En-cy-Clo.,pe-dia:;" a long,:.` hard
word; 46 what does it mean ?" he - asked.
"A (salvation of .tlre ; prin4al facts and
discoveries in the different branches of knowl
edge," :answered' his mother. "There is
something about medicine, and stearnen
girtes, and water-wheels, and coil, and china,
and-,almost every thing you can think of."
"How many yolumes there are, " said Hen
ry; " I linount-them;---one, two, tree, four;"
and so, he counted on to thirty. " Thirty
big vOlumei. shOuld,thiek"it ;would take
a, life as long as grandiia's to master them!!
" One person is not likely to be interested
in every subject that is - treated of," said-his
mother. "One mightkwish to learn about
spinning, - another , mining, atiothi3r about
bee-hiVes. That wouldlepend upon people's
taste and studies., Caroline, you know, was
hunting the other day tor the camel." .
"It is strange have never been to theta
since I have been at uncle Henry's," said
the boy; " but, mother, didn't they cost
,a
great deal ?"
"'Perhaps about five dollars. a *attune."
- ".Five dollars a volume, and thirty vol
umes, that would be one hundred and fifty
'dollars," Cried Henry.' "It's net'many'who
: could' afford to MO them."
"You now see why the 'is not an
encyclopedia telling abnut a great many
niorethihki &len: would' 'their
have told many things interesting to some
people, and havhig interest to others.
The Bible only - tells 'what is important for
all, men--for all men, women, and children
to know; for, in amine respects : they are all
upon the samnfooting. 'Whit49,the Bible

the Sabbath was -made; about Adam • and
Eve, and hew' they sinned; about God's giv
ing hitilair on. Mount Sinai; Abed' Jesus ,
Christ our Saviour; about heaven and hell,
and all such things," answered Henry.
"Just such things as are of common con
cern to us all;" - said his mother'. "Itis of
no importance for 'me to understand how the
great.wheel of the factory turis 'all the lit
tle wheels, but it is, for Mr. Miles, the
engineer. Neither-does:it concern him how
to cut a ,man's leg off in the most, skillful
manner; that belongs to surgery, and Uncle
Henry- knows about that, because he is.
surgeon. Henry and' Mr. Miles,
therefore, need to study different things in
order to be skillful in' their different
branches' of business. They are not on
common ground there, you see. But it'
concerns equally Mr. Milep, Uncle Henry,
and you and-me to know there is a hell for
the wicked, and a heaven for the righteous;
that we are sinners, and that God has pro
vided a away to escape the consequences of
our sins. Why are these more important
to know, and equally important for us all,
Henry?"
"Because these are about eternal things,
for ever important," "answered Henry.
"Eternity is millions longer than time."
"The Bible then teaches what is moat
important for every body to know, and'
which-could. not-have been known unless
Lll

God told it, and it is silent about every thing
else."
" Now I ace why the Bible should be

it is so important, that it is made little, to
sorry about, and easy to remember. Oh
how hard to carry about, either in your
head or your hand, thirty vol'unes of the
Encyclopedia."
"And cheap enough 'for the poorest per
son," added his mother. "Ten cents will
buy a Testament, Which, contains, more
knowledge valuable to use than. all other
knowledge put together."
"'Only think, mother neither I nor any
of us children ever looked int"o' Uncle
Henry's En-ey-olo.pedia, but we read the
