For the Presbyterian Benner
The Room of Sorrow.
Step softly; for the mother's heart is fuller grief;
Her little one is sick—aye, 'very sick—his large
eyes look
Sad, as though he was weary of this dark world,
And loug'd to be at rest. Dear babe! thy
journey
Hailiteen brief and toilsome. But thou art going
Where storm and blight no more can come.
Where thy young life shall bloom in nevitr-faaing
Loveliness. , Yes, loud mother, thy bud of
promise
Shall expand when it is transplanted•to that
Better soil, into life and everlasting joy.
0, then, arise, shake off thy sadness ; give back
thy flower
To the good and gentle Gardener, who will
Ever watch and safely keep it ; and 0 may Re,
The great, the mighty one, who once became
The lowly Babe of Bethlehem, be thy support
And consolation.
How still the baby lies! Speak low,
You may awake it. No ; " he . sleeps the sleep
Whieli-knows no waking." What sweet repose
'rests upon
The features. This pretty
Onihet is all that is left us. The jewel it con
tained is gone.
Gone where ? u To shine forever and forever
In, the Saviour's crown.

Law. in the Life Spiritual ; The Gifts of the
Holy Ghost; and Providence in Political Revo

Professor Kurts is already well-known to
American theological readers, from his admirable
" History of the Old Covenant," a translation of
which has been issued by the eminent Edinburgh
house, to ihich we are indebted fer the present
volume. In this work on the history of the New
Testament Church, the plan of, the author is to
note the fulfillment of so many Old Testament
promises f to trace theological -opining to their
sonice, and to follow them along their course; to
study -the internal -life , ofrthe ,Church; and to
make his readers fainiliar with the outward
events that effected the form, progress, and life
of the Church.
The view taken is comprehensive, the materials
are arranged with great care, the style is com
pact, and the whole work a complete success.
We are pleased.to learn that thie is to be fol
lowed by another volume that will continue this
hiatory down to our own days.

Young ladies ant House-work.
A, gentleman, remarkable for his strodg
good sense, married a very accomplished
and fashionable young lady, attracted more
by her beauty and accomplishments than
by. anything else. In this it must be own
ed that his strong: , good sense did not seem
very,apparent. His wife howevet, proved
to be a very excellent companion, and was
deeply attached to him, 'though she still
loved company, and spent more time abroad
than be exactly approved But as his in
come was good, and his house furnished
with a good supply of domestics,, he was not
aware of any .abridgments of comfort on
this account, and he therefore made no ob
jection to it,._ One day, ,eome few months
after his marriage; our friend, on coming
home to dinner, saw no appearance of his
usual meal, but found his wife , in great
trouble instead. " What's the matter ?" he
asked. " Nancy went off at ten oclock this
morning," replied his wife, " and, the cham
bermaid knows no more about cooking
a dinner than the man in the moon..
"Couldn't she have done it under your di
rection ?" inquired her husband, very cool
ly. "Under my direction ? I should like
to see a dinner cooked under my direction."
"Why so?" asked the husband, in surprise;
"you certainly do not mean that you cannot
cook a dinner." "I certainly do, then,"
replied his wife ; how should I know any
thing about cooking ?" The husband was
silent,, but his
. look of astonishment per
plexed and worried his 'wife. " You look
very much surprised," she said, after a
moment or two had elapsed. " And so I
am," he answered; "as much surprised as
I should be at finding the captain of one of
my ships unacquainted with navigation.
Don't know how to cook, and the mis
tress of a family ! Jane, if there is a
cooking school anywhere in the city, go to
it, and complete your education, for it is
deficient in a very important particular."
The Red Binding.
When I was a little girl, I attended
Sabbath School in which it was the custom
to reward good lessons by a little blue ticket
bearing a verse of Scripture. Five blue
tickets entitled the scholar to a red one,
and a certain number of red ones might
be exchanged for a book. Once when the
time for'grving out the rewards had arrived,
my teacher brought to our class a pile of
new volumes, bidding us to choose'for our
selves. My fancy, as I remember, was at
tracted by a gaily bound book, with gilt
edges, and profusely illustrated. I resolved
to take that book, and looked most disdain=
fully on a plainer one, habited in sober black,
which was pressed upon my notice.
Reaching my home, I sat down in a
favorite Corner, to make the acquaintance
of my prize. Little friend, imagine my
chagrin when I discovered that my treasure
was suited only to the most infantile 'com
prehension, and had no charms for me !
had been cheated by a fanciful binding, and
for days and weeks the sight .of the little
book was a mortifying souvenir of my weak
ness.

from the deep jungles upon an innocent
victim. The most poisonous plants have
deep-green leaves and waxen berries. §o
some of the worst men and women whO
have ever lived, have been famed for their
beauty and grace. Cleopatra, who in an

Little kittjee.
There was once a little Hindu girl named
Majee y she went to a missionary's school,
but she would not eat with her school fel
lows because she belonged to a higher caste
than they did. As all: livedat the school,
her mother brought her food every day, and
Majee sat under a tree to eat it. At the
end of two years she told her mother she
wished , to turn from idols and serve the liv
ing Godi her mother was much troubledat
hearing this, and begged her child not to
bring disgrace on the family by becoming
a Christian. But. Majee was anxious to
save her soul. She cared no longer for her
caste, for •she knew that all she had-been
taught about it was deceit and folly.
Therefore, one day she sat down and ate
with her school-fellows. When her mother
heard of Majee'S conduct, she ran to 'the
school in a rage, and seizing her little
daughter by the hair of her head, began to
beat her severely: Then she hastened to
the priests to ask them whether the child
had lost her caste forever ; the priest re
plied, "Has the child got her neiv'teetli ?"
"No," said the mother. "Then we can
cleanse.her, and when her new teeth come
she will be as pure as ever; but yon must
pay a great deal of money for the cleansing."
Were they, not cunning priests ? and cove
tous priests, too ? The money was paid, and
Majee was brought home against her will;
dreadful sufferings awaited the poor child;
the clealt r aing: was a cruel business; the
priest burnt, the child's tongue ;.-this Was
one of their ornelties. When little Majee
was suffered to go back to the school, she
was so ill she could not rise from her bed.
The poor deceived mother came to see her;
"I am going to 'Jesus," Said the young
Martyr. The mother began to weep—POh,
Majee, we will not let you die." " But
am glad," the little suffer rePlied, "because
I shall go to Jesus; if you r mother, would.
love him, and give up your idols, we should
meet again in heaven:" An hour 'after
wards Majee went to heaven, byt whether
her mother gave up her idols is not known.

4 ,1 Child's . Prayer.
A gentleman who had a large property,
was led into evil courses. He drank 'hard
and gambled much. Soon his property
began to waste away; and at last it was all
gone.
One night he came to his unfurnished
home. He entered his empty hall, sick at
heart; and passino• s on to his wife's chut
ter, there saw her sitting sobbing and
broken-hearted, and his little child by her.

PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---SATURD AY, JUNE 16, 1860.
Presently the mother said, " Come my
child, it is time for you to go to bed.'
And the little one, as was her usual way,
came up to her mother's side, and knelt
down on her knees to say her evening
prayers.
When she had finished, she looked up to
her weeping mother, and said, " Dear rna,
may I say one more prayer ?" " Oh, yes
my sweet pet," said the mother.
So she put her tiny hands once more to
gether, and prayed, " 0 God, spare; oh do
spare my dear father ?"
That little prayer, so simple and earnest,
was wafted to heaven, and heard there. It
went also to the father's heart. He melted,
and wept. He rushed to his wife and
child, fell on his knees, and confessed his
bad life, and resolved in God's strength to
become,a better man. God helped him;,
he left; off his bad ways; and once more he
had.a home, wife and child, all happy.
Children see what a little child's prayer
can do ! Do you pray , continually and ear

The Mother Moulds the Mau.
That' it is the moTher who moulds the
man, is a sentiment .beautifully illustrated
by the following recorded observation of a
'shrewd writer.
"When I lived' among the Choctaw In
dians, I held a 'consultation ;with' 'one of
their 'chiefs, respecting the siteeesSive sta
ges of their, progress in the arts of civilized
life; and, among many other things, he
informed me that at their start - they made
a great mistake—they only sent boys to
school. These boys came home intelligent
men but they married uneducated and un
civilized wives; and the uniform result
was, the children were all like - their moth
ers. The father soon lost all his interest
both in wife and children. 'And
_pew,'
said he if we would, educate but one class
of.our children, we should choose the girls,;
for when they become mothers they educate
their sops:"'This is the point,' and it is
true. No nation can become fully enlight

Dr. Mason to His Son.
•To his little son, afterwards Rev. Dr.
Erskine Mason, when he was studying in
Schenectady, the celebrated Dr. John E.
Mason thus wrote:
" There is a little hint my dear boy, in
the close of your letter to your mother,
which very sensibly touched my heart, And
awakened all, my solicitude for you. You
speak of a revival of religion among the
children, and of your endeavoringyourself
to seek the Lord. Oji, should it be so in
deed, that my beloved boy is in earnest
about his immortal soul? Should he have
gone from home to find Jesus and 'life eter
nal How blessed would this be! How
should my thankful heart pour forth praise
to God for my mercies.! my youngest son,
in the days of his early youth, safe for
eternity; what happiness like this ? Yes,
seek the Lord, my child, and he will be
found of you.' You have much to be for
given, although you are_so young. Spread
it out before God; eonfess it without ex
tenuation, and beg of God the free pardon
of it for the sake of the Lord Jesus Christ,
whose blood cleanseth from all sin. Tao

Teach the Women to Save.
There's the secret! A saving woman
at the- head of a family is the yery best
savings-bank yet established—one that re
ceives deposits daily and hourly, with no
costly machinery to manage it. The idea
of saving .is a pleasant:, one.; = and.. if ," the
women ' would imbibe` it at''' once; they
would cultivate and' adhere to -it, and thus,
when they were not aware, of, would*be
laying the foundation of a competent secu
rity in a stormy time, and shelter in a rainy
day. Tbe woman ;;who
,Sees, to her own
house, has a large field to save in. The
best way to make her' comprehend' it, is, for
her to keep an account of current expenses.
Probably not one wife in ten has an idea
how much, are the expenditures of herself
and family. Where from one thousand to
two thousand dollars are expended annual
, ,
ly, there is a,chance to save something, if
the attempt is only made. Let the house
wife, take the idea,-act upon, it, and strive
over it,, and she will save many dollars—
perhaps hundred's, where before she thought
it impossible. This is duty—not a
prompting of avarice—a moral- obligation
'that rests upon "the woman," as well as
the man ; but it is a duty, we are sorry to
say, that is cultivated very little, even
among those who preach the most, and re
gard themselves as examples in most mat
ters. " Teach the women to save," is a
good enough maxim to be inserted in the
next edition of "Poor Richard's Alma
nac."
"Ton must not play with that Little
girl, my: dear," said an injudicious parent.
"But, ma, I like her; she is a good little

cap cpf,lts:fleadiug,
.characteristies. That
word cannot be invented, by philological
ingenuity. must : be accepted as it flows
out.or the life of American society. The
Prick it.hasiaken is. none other than sensa
tioncilfpn. ii.the'liolite term employed
to denote , the art shove. 'al.l other arts, of
humbugging ` 11 '; •
g the ignorant, the credulons i
and,' the excitable. The material' fixim
which it shapes its fabrics, is falsehood ;
itirdiatiell bra verbose species 'of lying;
and the object of its exhibition is the end
and being:of aeelfish mammonism—to wit,
to make' money out` dupes, supes, and
innocents of every kind. This art is lim
ited to no one particular, sphere. It is
imaginative, literary, financial, church-jab
braerish, jobberish, and ministerial-ish.
So we have sensation novels, papers, Wall
street bulls, churches, and preachers, all
belonging to the same fraternity, and all tra
ding in the 'gullibility of the people—
that is of ignorant, credulous, half-poised
people, who think they must believe every
thing they 'see in print, and patronize
everything that craftiness is able to puff.
Sober, experienced, and sensible folks do
indeed know that where there is much
wind, and blowing and puffing, and noisy
self-laudation, there cannot be, much solid
worth or enduring substance. But unhap
pily, the majority are neither sober nor
sensible; and fools be ing plenty, the art.of
sensationalism thrives.
'ti I . t . r !AßTikt.-49 3 4vfiFrbt. 4.,t4e.:14
windiness becomes exhausted, and the col
lapse of emptiness is inevitable. The art
of sensationalisp can never replace the
trusty facts of solid experiment, and sup
porting truth. And so churches which
puff themselves most, and ministers who
suffer their sublimequalities to be ventila
ted much in swollen paragraphs of startling
,fustian, and papers that exhibit their
windy propensities 'in prolonged boastings,
are sure to be shunned and despised by those
who have ability to reflect, or character to
preserve, or public good to, effect and con
serve,.—Christian Intelligencer.
Three Poetsc in a Puzzle
4Pt led the horse to the stable; when a
fresh perplexity arose. removed the har
ness 'without ;difficulty', but; atter many
'strenuous attempts, I could not remove the
collar. In'despair, I called. for assistance;
when aid soon drei- near. Mr. Words
worth brought his ingenuity into exercise,
but after several unsuccessful efforts, he
relinquished the achievement :As a thing al
togetherimpracticable. Mr. Coleridge now
tried bis hand, but showed, no more groom
ing skill .than his predecessors; for, after
twisting the poor horse's neck almost to
strangulation, and to the great dan:Ter.of
his ,eyes, he gave, up the useless task, ' pro
nouncing that the horse's head must have
grown (gout or drbpsy,) since the collar
was put on, for, he, said it was a downright
impossibility-for such 'a huge os froatis to
pass through so narrow a. collar I , Just at
this momenta servant girl came near, and
understanding the cause of our consterna
tion, " La, master," said she, " <you do n't
go about the work, in the right way. You
should do this," when, turning the collar
completely upside down, she slipped it off
in a momeet, to our great humiliation and
wonderment, each. satisfied afreshlthat there
were hights-of knowledge in the world, to
which we had not yet attained.---Cottie's
Life of Coleridge. --
The- Drunkard's Rock,
If you exaniine your chart, you will find
put down not farifrom the latitude in which
yop., now area; a most dangerous rock, called
the Mock of;lntemperance, or Drunkard's
Rock, This rock, on which there is a high
beacon, is almost white with the bones of,
poor sailers.'who have been MA away upon
it. , "You must be careful to give this rock
*a good berth, for there is a very strong
current setting , toward it. If you once get
into that current, you will find it very diffi
cult getting out again ; and will be almost
`sure to strike and. go to pieces: You will
:.often find , company of wreckers round
this rock, who will,try to persuade you that
it is not dangerous, and that there is no
current. But take 'care how you believe
them. Their only • Object is plunder.
Not, far from this, terrible rock, you will
find marked, a whirlpool almost equally
dangerous, called the Whirlpool of Bad
Company. Indeed, this whirlpool often
throws vessels upon Drunkard's Rack, as
it hurries them roufid. It, lies just outside
the' Gulf of Perdition;•, and everything
.which it Swallows, up, is thrown into that
gulf It is surrounded by several little
eddies, which often draw mariners into it
before they know where they are. Keep a
good look out, then, for these eddies, and
steer..wide of , this whirlpool; for it has
swallowed up more sailors than ever the
sea did. In feet, 'it is a complete Hell
gate.--Dr. Payson's Address to Seamen.
There are charitable Christians, who are
so drily—barren fig-trees, with leaves only.
There are also some whose souls are nar
row, who will give once or twice and no
more. Let us resemble the oliv—let us
bring forth abundant fruits the fruits of
peace and mercy.— CArysostont.

During the lad fourteen years, some four hundred patents
have been granted on inventions designed to lighten the
drudgery of family sewing, and at the same time to produce a
machine 'that could be profitably used for Manufacturing
purposes ; bat, strange to lay, , out of this large number of
Sewing Machines. only, some half &nen have been proven to
be of practical value; and of this small number, not one has
in it couibined the advantages of a family and Manufacturing
machine. There are large, heavy. noisy, cumbrous, and
complicated machince, designed for heavy work, that answer
the purpose very well; while there are others of light
mechanism and delicate adjustments, which Perform on light
work to advantage; . and while the former are °seta
.airely confined to heavywork,the latter are of little value,
except el light fabrics. Therefore I take great pleasure In
stating the important fact that Mr. Hoyt; the original in
