A silken cap as 7 ope the draw,
Oft meets my glancing eye,
With its tasseled cord, and border white,
And strings of cherry dye.
'Tis a tiny thing,,but the rushing tears
Will ever dim my gaze,
As I turn to it, for a fair sweet face
I see in the blinding haze,
And a dimpled hand and a rounded arm,
And 'a *itching smile of .glee,
Gleam ever forth entrancingly,
s this silken cap I see.
And a prattling tone, and merry laugh,
Sound sweetly in my ear—
As they sounded oft, ere the Saviour claimed
My 'cherished babe so clear.
Though I murmur not, and ne'er would call
My boy from the sunny skies;
Yet I miss him e'er, and Around- his robes,
Are twined a thousand ties.
But dearer far than each treasured one,
Is this cap, with border white,
For a fair, sweet -face it ever brings
To my eager, longing sight. ,

FABLES OF INFIDELITY AND FACTS OF FAITH. By

_Robert Patterson.' Cincinniti: American Worm
•
. Tract and. Book Society.. Pittsburgh : S.
Rentout, No. 20 St. Mir Street
This work consists of a series of tracts on the
absurdity of Atheism, Pantheistn, and Rational
ism, which were delivered originally in the form
of lectures, in the City of Cincinnati, by the Rev.
Robert Patterson, now pastor of a Reformed
Presbyterian church in Chicago, brit at that time
a pastor in the first mentioned city. The lectures
attracted much attention, and the separate tracts
were widely distributed: The subjects discussed
are those which involve the infidel objections
commonly raised agalust . the truth of Divine rev
elation and the religion of Jesup Christ. These
objections are fairly met and skillfully answered
in a plain and popular style which will commend
it to all readers, who wish to• be able to repel the
attacks so often made against the truth of the
Bible. It will be found particularly valuable for
the compact-form in which it presenta manY of
the confirmations of the declarations of the Bible
given by the antiquarian add scientific disnoveties
of modern times. A fine example of this will be
found in the last tract of the book, entitled, Tel
esoopio Views of Scripture."

Letter LlF.—Heaven—Hell-- Conclusion.
Death is swallowed up in victory.-1. Con. xv: 54.
Mr DEAR FRIEND last letter ended
with heaven. And HEAVEN is both a place
and a state. It is a place. Thus Jesus
saith, In. My. Father's house are many man
sions : if it were not so, I would have told
you. I go . to prepare a place for you. And
if Igo and prepare a place for you, I , will
come again, and, receive you unto myself;
that where I am, there ye may be also,
John xiv :.1.3. And when it is said that
Jesus Christ is entered into heaven itself,
now;to appear in the presence of God for
us, it , is'implied that there, is some place'
where the presence and glory f : of God are
peculiarly manifested, and where Jesus
Christ is, and where that is, there is heaven.
—Reb. ix : 24. Hence heaven is spoken
of as a houtie,A eity, &c. It is a most
gloripris,'ltelir, and happy place. And it
also a state. It is not in any place of itself
to, mike us happy. Happiness depends not
'on external condition alone; but on the state
of the affections. The hearts of all in heaven
are right; add hence it is . a most glorious, holy,
and happy state as well as place. It is a,
state of perfect knowledge. The knowledge
of every soul there equals its capacities, and
liende-it , i's perfect :mend yet, as its ,capaci
ties expand, its krtiledge will increase, and
ever, advance toward the infinite knowledge '
of the beiti" — knowledge .there is without
error too, and so; also'is perfect. And it is
:state of perfect holiness as well as of
knowledge and yet there is progress : the
whole soul is conformed to the "All of God;
and yet as< its capacities expand and its.
knotledge increases, it will also advance in
holiness. And it - is - a" state orperfent baPpi—
neia. There is no imperfection hill:re bliss
of heaveri-4he happiness of the saints in
glory will' ever equal their eapacities,and at.'
tainments, and so will he perfect, But as
the soul expands, so will its happiness in
crease. There will be a const4up_ i progne . s
sion in the degree of its happiness, yet it
will ever be perfect, ever equal its capacities
and attainments; so that at no period Could
its happiness exceed what it really is, nor
will there ever be a period when it _shall
have reached its utwost limit. It is ever
perfect, and yet ever increasing. In some
respects the future world , may be analpgetni
to,this. We are born infants, we grow add
become, - men and women. So 'we enter
heaven-is it were, infants, we grow and ad
vance, our .powers expand, knoidedge and
happiness' increase, but never reach that
point bayond Witich there is no further pro
gression. There, are degrees of glory and of
happiness, but etu;lt'soul is as full as its" ca.
pacifies will allow, and hence its bliss is per.

innocence, joining their glad voices in an
thems to God and the Lamb.—Heb. iii :
18-24; Rev. vii: 9-17; xxi: 1-27 ;
and xxii : 1-7.
And the employments of heaven are holy
and ennobling, such as to meet the wants and
the capacities k,f our natures as redeemed
intelligences. Its joys are satisfying, and
they are eternal; there is fullness of joy,
and pleasure for ever more.—Ps. xvi : 11.
Yea, there are rivers of pleasure. Pa. xxxvi :
8., The employments and pursuits of heaven,
(for it is a rest of activity as well as of joy,)
are either the expression of enraptured feel
ing, or such as to produce or promote that
feeling. We love variety, and there is va
riety in heaven. There the praises of God
are sung, and his works and his word are
studied. The scenes of earth will then be
reviewed-;---the dealings of God with his
saints be recapitulated—friends will there
converse with each other of all God's won
derful goodness to them—prophecy will be
studied in the light of the world's consurn.-
mated history, and the angels, and prophets,
and apostles, and martyrs will be our com
panions and our teachers; but in all, and
above all, redeeming love wilt be the great
theme of !study and of song. There is a
oneness and yet a variety in the occupations
of heaven—a unity in diversity.
.They are
the' occupations of holy and happy beings
who are ever active; occupations that ex
press, atthe same time that they: give de
light ;. and just such as meet the cravings
and fill the capacities of our .iminortal na
tures.
"There is a hind of pure delight,
Where saints immortal reign;
Infinite day excludes the night",
And pleasures banish pain.!
"All is tranquil and serene,
Calm and undisturbed repose;
There no cloud can intervene,
There no angry tempest blows.
"Ivory tear is wiped away,
Sighs no more shall heave the breast;
Night is lost in endless day,
Sorrow, in eternal rest."
Such is heaven, and this is,the end of the
righteous. Read Hymns 06, 667, 677. But
there is, also, a HELL, and that is the end of
the wicked. For the wicked shall be driven
away in •his wickedness; these shall go away
into everlasting punishment.—F'rov. xiv
32 ;: Matt. Xxv 1-46. The rich man
died and was,buried ; and in hell he lifted
up his eyes, being in torme,nts.--Luke xvi :
19-31. As the rightemis are happy imme
diately after death; so are the wicked mis
erable—miserable immediately after death—
their souls do immediately pass into torment,
as did the soul of the:rich man; but their
cup of misery is not full till the resurrection
of their bodies and their sentence in the
judgment. Then they receive the full
measure of their deserts as sinners, for the
Wages of sin is death, the second death,
eternal death ; for their worm dieth not, and
the fire is not quenched. The wrath of God
abideth,on,them—im,the .present
abideth, and berme will ever abide ; hell is
eternal. As the happiness of the righteous
shall never 'end, solhe miser3r'of the wicked
shall ever endure. "They will feel a warm
of conscience that shall never. ; die,, and the
fiery wrath' of God' upon their Souls
W and
bodies that shall never go out:"--Cruden.
They suffer, the vengeance of, eternal fire.—
Jude ill; 'Rom. vi : 23 ; Isa. 24;
Mark ix 44.-48. John : 36. Read
Hymn 680; and Fisher's Catechism.
" The breath of God, his angry breath,
Supplies and fans the fire;
There sinners taste the second death,
And would but can't expire.
"Cimseiene.e; the never dying, worm,
With torture gnaws the heart;
And woe and wrath in every form,
Is now the sinner's part."
"Sad world, indeed'!" And this. is the
desert of sin—the wrath and'curse of God
and to this.the impenitent sinner is exposed;
to this all are, expoied who are, yet out of
Christ. Is there a way of escape ? and
what is it? What does God require of us
that we may escape his.wrath and curse due
to us for sine? • Remember, " every sin de
serVeth God's wrath and curse, both in this
life, and that which is to borne." And "to
escape the wrath , and curse of God due to
us for sin, God requireth of us faith in Jesus
Christ, repentance unto life, with the dili
gent use of all the outward means whereby -,
Christ obtrimuriicateth 'to - us the' benefits, of
redemption ."—Short Cat.,Ques, 84, 85. 'This
is what God requires. He has given his Son
to redeem frointhe curse and save from sin
and,wrath ; Jesus Christ has died to pur
chase redemption for the lost and perishing;
he has shed his blood for the' remission of
sing; but you must receive . Jesus Christ es
your Saviour, or' remain under the curse.
You must believe, or you can not, be saved.
—Mark xvi: 16. And what is it to believe?
What is faith? " Faith in Jesns; Qiirist is
a saving grace, whereby we receive' and rest
upon hint alone for salvation, as he is offered
to us in the Gospel."—Short. Cat.„ Ques.
86. This is faith; it is receiving and, rest
ing Upon Jesus Christ ; is . feeling our
need, of him—seeing a fitness,in
then embracing him and trusting in ' him=
a leaning, a reclining, a resting, a.recumben
cy of Soul, upon Jesus Christ. This is
faith. And "repentance, unto life is a sav
ing grace whereby a sinner, out, of a true
sense of his sin,' and apprehension of the
mercy of God in Christ, doth with grief and
hatred of his sin, turn from it unto God, with
full purpose of, and endeavor after, new obe
dience:'—Short Cat., Qaes. 87. And faith
and repentance: are always, onnected ; where
one is, there will also the other he. True
repentance therefore is au eVidence of 'faith;
and both faith and repentance are evidences.
Of t reg,eneration. they who repent and be
lieve, are born again, and will lead a, new.,
life. This then is what God requires -- a sav
ing` faith and evangelical repentance ; faith
in Christ, sorrow for sin, and a life of obe
dience as a fruit and evidence of faith. ,
Believe and,obey; faith first, and then
WOrks; union with Christ by faith first, and
then good fruits as the result, and ,demen-,
stration of' this union; for the living
branches of the true vine'must ands will be
fruitful.—John xv ; 1-14.. Receive Christ
Jesus as your Saviour and live to the glory of
God; and then, heaven shall be your home.

NEW YORK, May, 1858.
Happy once more to stand on freedom's
soil. But I mist tell you more about Ha
vana, and some incidents of our voyage home.
The population of Havana is estimated
at two hundred thousand. Although a great
majority of the inhabitants are Spaniards,
yet; the most superficial observer will soon
perceive that a mixed Multitude dwell here.
It is no uncommon thing to see large groups
of Yucatan Indians, Coolies, and native
Africans lounging _ about the streets and
public walks, apparently in great poverty
and dejection I- Caste is _said to= prevail
in Havana with almost the iron rigor of
India. The old Spaniards are exceedingly
aristocratic; quite grave in their manners,
and proud .of their.,birth , and :rank ; cour
teous to one. another,. but cruel, to all the
lower orders. .They,are vain of dress and
have a childish fondness for gold . chains,
jewelry,'and costly ornaments of all kinds.
Their religion is the rankest Roroanism ; and
they delight much in music, dancing, mas
querades, and bull fights. The Sabbath is
the great day of
. amusement I They lead
an indolent, useless, voluptuous life. The
women lake but little exercise; are seldoni
seen on the streets except in their no/antes,
and scarcely ever notice, much less nurse,
their own children, Degs with these donnas
are more .prized ,than babies. Their pets
are poodles 1 What a pity that this disgust
ing habit of pup-nursing-should be followed
by any one claiming to be a lady. Affecta 7
tion in any woman in any laity is repulsive,
but this manifestation ot it is perfectly con
temptible. &d nil disputandem de gusti
bue.
The El Paseo is the Broadway,of Havana;
a very beautiful street, three hundred feet
well improved, and filled with a great
variety of trees. These, are planted in four
rows, andT run the whole length of theatreet.
Many of them are of the palm, species, ,and
others, belong to families unknown to a
seiolist in botany like myself. This, ignor
ance of their scientific names and class,
however, did not; in the least, prevent me
from frequently availing myself of . the ben
efit of their shade, a most convenient and
grateful retreat from the scorching'rays of a
vertical sun. Many of these trees are as
singular as they are beautiful. The bark-is
as smooth almost as polished marble, and
shines.as:though Wiled beescovered,with,a
coat of copal varnish ; and if the trunks had
been turned in lathes their tapers could, not
have been more uniform, nor their bulbs
more complete. Fish pools, jets deau, and
flower gardens meet the eye everywhere iu
this part of the city:; and.no one need wish
to see anything more lovely is the whole
kingdom of Flora, than the plazas and the
royal grounds around, the Captain ; General's
palaces. Serpentine walks and shell-paved
avenues meander amid a wilderness of shrubs
,and trees too numerous to be named, and:
too beautiful for me to describe. One might
almost fancy these tn be the hyaninthine
bowers, the hyperion,„, gardens, or elysian
:fields of the ancients. The culling, trim
ming, fostering care of art is everywhere
apparent; and it is really impossible to decide
whether the rainbow hues of such a. limit
less variety of flowers, or the delicious flavor
bf so many kinds of fruits, or the combined
sweetness of both in the form of, the richest
fragrance, is most to 'be . admired I • Two
marine bands play the most lively Italian
airs in tbese places every evening; and hun
dreds of, fairy dressed ladies ride around in
volantes driven by gay ealisaros in costume
as noticed in my.last'letter.
I have seen no flower that equals the mag
,nolia in beauty, sweetness, and magnitude.
It is as fair as the lily, ,fragrant„as a pink,
;',and as large as a full blown sunflower. It is
called by the Spanishyllgt Fier de Cuba.
~ Of the fruits, I am at a loss to know which
give the pre-eminence. Here is a pine
Apple. It weighs twenty pounds. I bought
it for as many cents. ,How.sweetit smells !
llow delicious it looks It is sweating nee
-
tar. Peel off its rind, cut it in thin slices,
i sprinkle over it, a little crushed sugar; now
try, it. 0, ,isn't it good ? But look here;
did you ever see as large oranges as these ?
.They •cost only onelialf,,,cent a piece. I got
twenty fora dime. , Hew, sweet and juicy
they are. I scarcely know whether to eat
t •theiii or difilkthern' 'Let US - try a Ciiban
banana. It is as yellow as gold, and ex ceedingly rich flavored. To a stranger it
jtastes rather too luscious, but on acquaintance
lit becomes perfectly delicious. These plan
tains are a species of banana. They grow on
trees twelve or fifteen feetliigli, and are the
great breadfruit, of the tropics. These huge
clusters are freSh loaves from Nature's oven
to . feed the poor. Thousands find them to
be both a necessary and luxury of life.
Taken fig.;
much better these are than the mouldy, dry,
unwholesome things
,we buy for figs in the
,States. This May.ntsple is Inrge, soft and
ripe; but I." do not like it,; it is too insipidly
,sweet.
Here is another, kind of fruit,
.What do
you call this? Well—l almost forget, but.
think it is named gra,ndeta,. No difference
about,the 'nude ; taste it and you will find it
very good. It is larger than alarge -apple,
,and has, a rind like a banana.. 'Set it on the
palna'of your left hand, .pull off the skin;
,now, see, there is a most delicious pulp, and
tastes as much like ripe peaches mashed in
rich cream as any one need wish.
Which of these to prefer to all the rest,
I` cannot 'tell- The plaintain is deubtless
the most useful as a common food; and the
orange for trafiio . Oar Captain to
ship several hundred bushels, of oranges on
the Black Warrior g to New York this trip.
I have learned from' a gentleman that the
orange tree is used extensively in both med
icine- and perfumery. He says .that per
fumers distill the rind and from it obtain an
otto which is called eau de' Portugal . ; that
the perfume known in the fashionable world
as Le Petit Grai7t, is from orange leaves;
and that the 'oil of neroli, one of the chief
ingredients in the emiimort eau de Cologne,
is nothing but a distillation of orange Mos.
soma. Indeed the plaintaircand orange are
to Cuba what the potato is to Ireland.
- It may seem strange but I saw but few
lemons:here in.market. Being thirsty, we
dropped in to> a saloon and .made , signs , to the
keeper.that we wanted a drink of lemonade.
We. had some difficulty. sto make him under.
stand ,us. At last he ff , fixed up the bev.
erage. But as soon as .I tasted mine I threw,
with a}. frown, on the:giver..
It was to abominable ,as a cup of dirty dish
water t rr#ed,with a little'yinegar would ,he
TttOfellow.lauglied at me ancleahtsomething
which I suppose meant, "Can't you go it,
sir ?" I said no, no—bah what's to pay?
It cost one fourth of a r'al, about two and a
half cents. Some of us got a pretty good
dinner at the La Grange for Tres media,
pesos (three half dollars,) a piece.
The Spaniards eat but little meat. Three
reasons arc given for this—lst. It is very
dear; 2d. Very poor ;. and, 3d. Very un
healthy. They never fatten their beef, but
kill it lean from the yoke. An old ox thus
slaughtered and afterwards fried or stewed
in rancid keg lard from Cincinnati, is neither
delicious no: nutritious. The beautiful
Queen of the West is known in Havana as
the "hog city." Not a city of hogs, but
the hog city, which sounds even harsher than
the - Smoky City.
We rode a few miles 'into the country to
see a coffee farm. The plants are set In
rows from five to eight feet apart. They grow
about six feet high; are' kept trimmed to
make them grow bushy. The spaces be
tween are often plaited with' flowers; shrub
bery, •and shade trees. A coffee plantation
looks beautiful. And were it not so hot, I
think it would be nice
,work gathering
coffee; far more so, at' least, than making
sugar or pickinguotton. I do not believe
that any white man could stand either.
These Afrioans and Indians seem; constitu
tiorially'fitted for this climate by the God
who made them; and it .is wonderful how
the labors of these poor fellows conduce to
the individual and domestic comfort and
convenience of the eivilized world. Just
think of its; .cotton, coffee, 'and sugar—the
three great staples of the South; how could
we do without them ? - The sable sons of
Ham are:indeed our benefactors, - , and it is
the very height of cruelty for any one to
treat,them illy. '
.• The slave in Cuba, is in a wretched con
dition, far more so than in the States.
Thousands of native Africans are smuggled
in here annually. This is done by _British
and• French, .as •well as American kidnappers.
A ship fits out from some of these West
Indian ports.• for (it is eiaid,) Liverpool,
Havre; or Cadiz, but in reality for Africa,
for a cargo , of negroes.-. -This iskcalled'"
ins to the coast for blackberries!' It re
turns: The American flag is 'hoisted, and
the cargo clandestinely 'set onshore. Great
Britain has tried for years to suppress this.
So have the United States. Both have pro
nounced it piracy. It is said that British
marines have just •been landed on this island
to-hunt for Bozel negroes, put ashore -by a
vessel under the American flag. Many gun
boats have been stationed around this coast
to suppress r if possible, this nefarious traffic.
Others are cruising in the Gulf and among
tholslands.
,This, is likely to lead to difficulty
between our government and England ; for'
oftentimes our innocent merchant, and mail
ships are overhauled by these cruisers in
search of shiver& This is a very great
annoyance and is highly offensive to the com
manders and owners, of such vessels - as well
as to the passengers - .
SorneWhat different grounds are taken by
the two 'governments on this subject. We
contend that the deck of an American ship
is as much American soil, al the spot that
holds the mortal remains of Washington;`
and are, therefore, deter Mined. to resist these'
provoking outrages from , the power across
the waters. But they reply, how can a
slaver be known or •apprehended under our
flag, unless all vessels 4coming into these seas
from Eastern ports be searched indiscrimi
nately, -So this, matter hinges upon the old
'much mooted question of the right of search.
The Britisk government assumes the ri4ht
to search ; but it has never yet shown it to
be just; and it is not at all likely that so
strong and independent a government as
oars, will allow such insults, on the part of
English cruisers, to pass with impunity;
and, hence, it is hoped that the offensive
pelicy so boldly taken by' England may be
abandone.d once and forever; for the evil
to which it is . likely to lead, is far greater
than the good it would seek to secure.
"[The claim is now abandoned.—ED.] •
When We were akout to leave the harbor
a matter of some moment occurred. A bus
iness house in the city had failed for a large
sum. A clerk in the employ of the firm
was charged with embezzling the hinds. It
was supposed lie had 'escaped to our sbip.
A number of. officials came on board to make
search. After much time was spent in the
•ransacking of our vessel, our Captain's pa
tience began to fail, for I think ship Cap ,
tains generallyhave but a small modicum of
this grace at best. So these officers and
Iheir posse were told to leave the ship imme
diately if they did not wish to go to New
York. They left with much reluctance, and
scarcely had the Black Warrior got beyond
the range of the guns of old Moro, *hen
the 14 clerk" made his debut on deck 1 He
had secreted himself between two mattresses,
and thus escaped detection. The Spaniards
would ' have put' "him to 'death, had they
caught him. We are now again= at sea.
We were a shorter time in Havana than
we could have "desired; but long enough to
see - 133 - ost. Of the city and a specimen, of the
eou.ntry. We have on board more than one
hundred Spaniards. Most of them are on
their way. to Spain. They are said to 'be' a
sample of Cuban aristocracy. The clatter
and confusion on deck as.we left the Island,
were intolerable.•
The next day after we left . Cuba, was the
Sabbath. We had but one minister on
board.. he was asked to preach, but was not
able., All night before, we had a very rough
sea, and the "poor parson" was seasick ;
in that this was one of the gloomiest Sab
;baths he ever spent. His state-room was as
hot as a dry-house. If he attempted to open
the little circular window in it, in dashed
the salt brine, wetting every thing I If he
tried to go on deck he soon found that he
couldn't do it • so he lay on the broad
of his back nearly all day; or, as the ship

of the Bahama Islands on the right. The
most Eastern of this group, is St. Salvador,

New World, in 1492.
Sight seeing was now a burthen, and the
parson soon went below, turned in, and staid
in, until - the_next day. More than three
fourths on board were as sick as he;. and the
very 'sight of so many, sick Spaniards, was
enough to sicken a well man. The ladies'

Jack and his Neal Bag,
'The mill was doing a great business that
day, when Jack and David Jamiiitson rode
up with their bag of corn to be ground.
They lived on a small farm five miles off the
main roads, and were therefore not sorry At
the prospect of waiting several hours for
their grist. It gave them a chance of see
ing something of the liveliness and bustle
'of .‘ The Corner," as that part of the vil
lage was called where the tavern, store, and
mill stood. They ran about here and there,
and saw and heard a great deal.
At last a heavy shower coming on, they
went back to the mill to, eat their lunch and
see when their turn came.. The miller's son
and the squire's son were, engaged in a brisk
talk, which soon took Jack's attention.
David went to look after the corn. The
miller's son was urging upon the squire's
son the importance of finding what truth the
Bible enjoined, which the squire's son par•
ried by saying . it.," .was no matter what a
man beliews, provided he's, sincere." The
rattling, off-hand tone of the young man
pleased jack, and he wished he could talk
so. " Wouldn't he shut up his grand-sir ?
Yes, that he would." "R matter what a
man believes, provided he's sincere," said
Jack-to himself, bridling np, and bracing.
his conscience against the godly conversa
tion of his relations. "He'd fix 'em now,"
he said, with a sly cant of his. head.
It was not until late in the afternoon that,
the boy's 'grist was ready; when the old
mare was brought out of the shed, the bag
hoisted on her back, and Jack and David
both mounted her—bag, boys, and ,mare
homeward bound. " You've got a longer
ride ahead than I wish you had, boys," said
the miller, casting his eyes toward a black
cloud which was rising and darkening the
Western sky. There's plenty of water up
there for my mill."
The mare set: briskly off, and was soon lost
to sight among the windings of the forest
road. But the gloom gathered faster than
the horse trotted, and it was quite dark when
they reached a fork in the road, where it
Might make a vary considerable difference
which path they took home. One was the
traveled road. This way there was a good
bridge ovet Bounding brook, a mountain
stream, which was often dangerously swelled
by, the Spring rains. It was the, safest,
though the longest way home.' The other
was a . wood path through the Pines, often
taken in good weather by, the farmers living
on the East side of the town, to shorten the
distance to the Corner. In this, road Bound
ing brook was crossed by fording.
"Father told us to be sure and take the
traveled road, if 'twas late," said David.
"Going to," said Jack; and the mare
stopped at the fork as if le let the boys be
sure which to take. In fact, Jack: was ; .a
little confused. The windings of the road'
with nothing but woods on each side, and
of course no distinct landmarks to govern
him; the gloom of the night hiding what
objects might have served to direct him,
together with his small acquaintance with
the road, did puzzle the boys, although
Jack, being the older of the two, with a
dash of pride about him, would: not own it.
As the mare stopped, he came to a .eoriclusion,
and, whippe&up. "All right," he cried. •
" Are you sure ?" asked David. " This
way, I know," -answered Jack. "1 don't
know," said David ; "let me jump off and
run down to that light yonder, and ask ;
there must be a cabin there, and folks."
"Oh we can't stop for all that," said Jack.
" I honestly believe this is the traveled
road, David, and that's enough ; can't you
trust, me ?" " But your honestly helieving
it dot% make it so," muttered David. "I
have n't a doubt of it, Dave; you be still,"
cried Jack, angrily. "I thtnk we ought to
ask, so as to be sure," persisted David.
Bat Jack whipped up, and poor David's
fears and words went to the, winds, as gust
after
„gust of the coming shower roared
through the 'forest, and Jack urged the
horse to all the speed which her heavy load
would allow, on and on through the dark
woods. ~Jack was well pleased with the car
,
neatness of, his hasty decision about the
way; and the farther he went, the more and
more confirmed was he that it was the right.
way.
Presently the roarings. of Bounding brook
arose above the rattlings of the woods. A
switch over the.mare's haunches, and "we
shall be over the bridge in a jiffy," cried
Jack; " then, old fellow, what'll you, say ?"
David privately muttered, " He'd like to
feel himself over," when, a few more can
ters, and—Jack, David, meal, and mare
were floundering in the raging waters of the
swollen stream, pitch dark,the storm on
them; and, miles from human help. The
first few moments of horrible suspense it
were in vain to paint. 'Jack at last found
himself anchored on a log of drift-wood, the
icy waters breaking over him, and the bridle
still fast in his hand; "David 1" he shouted
at the top of his voice, " David !" " The
Lord have mercy," cried David, " I'm
somewhere." The , meal? ah, that was
making a pudding in some wild eddy of the
Bounding brook far below.
" No matter what a fellow believes; pro
vided he's sincere," cried poor' Jack Oar-
oughly drenched and humbled. "It's.the

A Word to Young Ladies.
We wish to say a word t 3 you young la
dies, about your influence over young men.
Did you ever realize that you, could have
any influence over them? We believe that
a young lady by her constant, consistent,
Christian example, may exert an untold
power. You do not know the respect, and
almost worship, which young men, no matter
bow wicked they may be themselves, pay to
a consistent, Christian lady, be she young or
old-
A gentleman once said to a lady <who
boarded b the same house with him,, that
her life was a constant proof of the truth of
the Christian religion. Often the simple
request of a lady' will keep a young max
from doing wrong. We have known this to
be the case very frequently . ; and young men
have been kept from breaking the Sabbath,
from drinking, from chewing, just because a
lady whom they respected, and fur whom
they had an affection, requested it. A
tract given, an invitation to go to church, a
'request that friend would read the
Bible daily, will often be regarded when
more, powerful appeals from other sources
would fall unheeded upon his heart.
Many of the gentlemen whom you meet
in,sooiety, are, away from the influence Hof
parents and sisters, and they will respond to
any interest taken in their welfare. We
all speak of a ' yoang man's danger from
evil associates,
and the bad influence which
his dissipated'gentleman 'companions have
over him. We believe it is all true, that a
gentleman's character is' formed, to a great
extent, by the ladies he associates with be
fore he becomes a complete, man of the
world. We think, in other words, that a
young man is pretty much what his sisters
and young lady friends choose to make him.
W.M. F
We knew a family where the sisters en
couraged their younger brother to smoke,
thinking it was manly, and to mingle
with gay dissipated fellows - because they
thought it " smart ;" and he did min
gle with them until he became just like
them, body and soul, and abused the same
sisters shamefully. The influence began
farther back than with his gentleman com
panions. It began with his sisters, and was
carried on through . the forming years of his
character. On the other hand, if sisters are
watchful and affectionate, they may, in vari
ous ways—by entering into any tittle plan
with interest, by introducing their younger
brothers to good' ladies' society—lead them
along until their character is formed; and
then a high-toned respect for ladies, and a
manly lelf-respect, will keep them from
mingling with low society.
If a young man sees that the religion,
which in youth he was taught to venerate,
is lightly thought of, and , perhaps sneered
at, by the young ladies with whom he as
sociates, we can hardly expect him to think
it is the thing for him. Let none say that
they have no influence at all. This is not
possible. You cannot live without having
some sort of influence, any more than you
can live without breathing. One is just as
unavoidable as the other.
Beware then, what kind of influence it is
that you are constantly exerting. An invi
tation to take a glass of wine, or to play a
game of cards, may kindle the .fire of in
temperance or, gambling, which will burn
forever. A jest given at the expense of re
ligion; a light, trifling manner in the house
of God, or in any, of the, numerous ways in
which you may show your disregard for the
souls of others, may be the .means of ruin
ing others for time and eternity.—Genio
Scott in the Rome Journal.

Oar readers have heard of Rarey, . the
horse breaker..,His. method of treatment
is known to hundreds beside himself; but
they are sworn to, secrecy and the payment
of £lO 10s.; and all, that the public is per
mitted to know is, that the recipe is infalli
ble in the most unpromising eases, and un
attended by 'objections of any kind. This
is vouched by the highest authorities, even
by princes , and peers; and the only doubt
seems to be, whether the cure is permanent.
Of this we have had little time to judge.
One of the most remarkable of all Mr.
Rarey's experiments was made a few days
since. Lord Dorchester thus writes of his
horse " ()raiser," bred in 1862 : "I consid
er him 'to have 'been' vicious from a foal;
hey was always troublesome to handle, and
showed temper on every opportunity. On
his road here (Greywell) from Danebury he
went on his knees, and tore the ground up
with his teeth. I have seen him tilean
against the wall of his'•hor, and kick and
scream for ten minutes "together. *' * *
His savage propensitieS tendered the care
of him too dangerous an olftee for any man..
For days he would allow no one to enter his
box, and on one occasion tore an iron bar,
one inch thick, in two with his teeth.".
But Mr. Rarey, when here, first subju
gated a two-year old filly, perfectly unbro
ken. This , he accomplished under half an
hour, riding 'On her, opening an Unbrella,
beating a drain upon her, &c. He then
took 4 0ruiser' in hand, and in three hours
Mr.- Rarey, and myself mounted him. He
had not been ridden for nearly three years,
and was so vicious that it was impossible
even to dress him, and it was necessary to
keep him muzzled constantly. - The follow
ing morning Mr. Ra.rey led him behind an
open carriage on his road to London."
The editor of the Times adds his testi
mony to that of Lord Dorchester, " having
witnessed the complete subjugation of the
horse, which has been converted, in the
course of a few days, from a state of savage
ferocity to the ordinary condition of a thor
ough-bred stallion."—London News.
The "Old Story Ever New."
The body of a good-lookinglman, comfort
ably dressed, aged between thirty and forty,
was lately found under the Stockwell Bridge,
Glasgow. Among several letters found on
his person, was one dated 1' January 30th,
1858." It began with "My dear Robert,
and was signed " Ever yours, Janet." " Yon
signed yourself 'yours faithfully!. Your
Faith i s to be preyed yet. lam afraid, had
you been more faithful to yourself and me,
you would have looked better after your own
interest, and kept a stricter watch over your
actions. But the end of March will prove
whether you have 'been faithful or not, as it
must then be, decided if and when we are to
be married, or part forever. If it must be
the litter, your death would have been, a
pleasant sadness compared to being'severed
by.your own actions."
