We have alreadY called the attention of our
readers to this velum* by, stating its object and
giving the table of , Contents; The questions
here discussed are thbse which in every age
have awaliatied. CIA opposition of the carnal
mind, anAhniti`giien rise to long, elaborale, and
often acrimonious disputation, even among Evan
gelical Chtistians. The Arminian controversy is
by no means settled yet, and there is still • room
for alearm, logical, and Scriptural survey of the
entire ground that has been so often gone- over.
Mr. Morton has made the Points at issue be
tweCalvinists and Arminians the subject
of long and careful study ; and in his pas
toral experience he. had an opportunity of
meetinuwith them in their practical form, in
a Manner doßid, to one who has never bean a
pastor. His ilnithbd of treatment is highly ap
propriate; the style is clear and forcible, and he
establishes "most conclusively, by theonerrhig
deelarations of Scripture, that God has eternally
decreed'ill things, and that in so tieing he is not
justlfliable to the charge of originating moral
evil, or of .affecting,,man's responsibility as ,a
moral agent. But in Undertaking to explain
why God did so,ind A i ale he did it, he has done
what no trulY 4cientific; mind 'would attempt to
do with regard to the wonders of nature. This is
beyond the reach of human intellect. It is bet
ter to , tske the explicit, statements of Scripture,
even though , they may sometimes contain things
our feeble reason may be unable - to comprehend
fully. The theory adopted by the author that
evil. originates with man owing to an imperfec
tion in his very nature, and that God himself
could not have Prevented this imperfection, is
one of the things that we do not knew.
But on the'wholeilhe work of Mr. Morton ia
a valuable one-in the
. present state of the con
troversy, and Will well repay , peruial and study.

Mr. Leslie's reputation as painter was very
high; his-judgment in matters. of art was dis

examining the works of the,greatest masters, and
meeting with the most celebrated characters of
his times, were not excelled; and he crowned all
with the beauty of a 'Christian life and death.
These Recollections, giving an account of his
early life, ilia sulisequent career, his. criticisms
on works of art,• and his descriptions of the moat
noted men and women of his generation, form a
volume orrsre fascination to the genial and ap:
preciative reader.

Carrying the Turkey Home.
Chief Justice Marshall was a great man ;
but great men are never proud. He was
not too proud to wait upon himself. He
was in the habit of going to market him
self and carrying home his purchases. Of
ten would he be seen going home at sun
rise, with poultry in one hand and vegeta
bles in the other. On one of these occa
sions, a fashionable young man from the
North, who had removed to Richmond, was
swearing violently because he-could find , no
one to carry home his turkey. Judge Mar
shall stepped up and asked , where he lived.
When he heard, he, said," That.is my.way;
I will take your turkey home for yo"
When they came to the house, the young
man 'asked, "What shall pay you?" "Oh,
nothing,';" said the Judge -" , you are wel
come; it was all in my way; and it was no
trouble to me."
" Who is that polite old man, who
brought home my turkey for me ?" asked ,
the young man of a bystander. "Oh,".
said he, "that was Judge Marshall, Chief-
Justice of the United States." " Why did
he bring home my turkey ?" "I suppose
he did it," said the bystander, "-to teach
you not to feel above attending to ydur own
business!' '
Here is a good moral under the guise of
a fable :--" A young man once picked up a
sovereign in the road Ever afterwards, as
he walked along, he kept his eyes , fixed,
steadily on'the ground, in hopes of finding
another. And in the course of a long life
he did pick up, at different times, a goodly
number of coins, gold and, silver.... But. all
these years, while he was looking for them,
he saw not that the heavens were'Vright
above him, and nature beautiful around.
He never once allowed his eyes to - look, up
from.the mud and filth in which lie sought:
the treasure; and when he died, a rich old
man, he only knew this fair earth of ours
as a dirty road in which to pick up money
as you walk along."
One night, after little Julia had said: her
prayers, she lay very still a few moments,
thinking, and then asked, "Mother what
does.it mean by deliver us from evil ?' "
"It means, darling,.asking God to keep
our bodies safe from being sick, or getting
hurt in any way, and also to keep us, from
doing any thing that would be wrong or
displeasing to him."
Julia was again silent for a moment, -and
then asked, "Did Willie get one of the
evils to-day when he fell down stairs ? "
" Yes."
. .
"But•then," said the little
_girl, "his
evil was'at a naughty evil; but a sorry
evil."
She meant, I supposei that an evil which
would cause pain to the body was a thing
to be sorry for, more than any naughty ac
tion which would be displeasing to •God.
Her Mother tried to explain to her that to
tell a lie or to be unkind, or angry, or dis
obedient, or to take any thing that belong
ed to another, was a much greater evil than
falling down stairs, or anything else which
only hurts the body, but does not injure
the soul. I'do not know as she understood
it very well, but her mother hopes that her
naughty evils will be those for which she
will be the most sorry.--Child at Home.
"Black yo'r boots, .sir'? " cried a little
London shoe-black, as a man was passing.
" How well can you do, them ?" he asked.
"I'll black them as well as I can," said the
little fellow. The man put out his foot.
The boy took hold of his business with a
will, and the bespattered boots soon shone
as bright as the best blacking could make
them.
"Youthink that will please me?".said
the gentleman, '
as he handed him his mon
ey. "It will please my Father," said the
little - shoe-black. " Your father ; where
does he live ?" "Up in the sky." "'Dead,
then ?" said the gentleman. "My Father
is God," said the little boy, reverently.
"How do you know it will please God?"
asked the gentleman. "If I do right it
will please God," said the boy. " How do
you know?" The little shoe-black stopped
a moment, and said, Because I feel it
here, sir," striking his hand upon his heart,
with a simple sincerity which touched the
stranger, who stepped on leaving the poor
shoe-black far behind him. Bute he did
not leave his words behind him. Ile
brought them home to this country.;.and
often, and often asked himself, about his
business or his recreations, " Do /feel here
whether I please or displease God ?"
"Quick. as the apple of the eye,
0 Gad, ray conscience make."
So, often, does a chance word become
the seed of thought.

No class.of plants are more useful in the
hands of the skillful gardener than the
climbers. They possess almost miraculous
powers, transforming any unsightly out
building into an object of reatheauty. No
~0 0d gardener will have any- hare board
fences about his premises—all are wreathed
and festooned, and made gay and graceful.
Then for Covering cottage verandahs, what
can equal this class of plants? They put
to theblush all the expensive work, of the
architect and the builder, and make the
poor man's cottage appear more elegant--
possessing more of nature—more-of quiet,
grace—than the palace of a prince. For
this purpose, the hardy varieties of grape
vines are fury usefUl.
• The Virginia Creeper is an excellent
climber, and.although a native of .ourown
land, much more popular in Europe'than
with us. Its leaves are digitate, of a dark,-
rich green in Summer, and becoming of a
rich crimson in the Autumn. It throws
s out little roots at the joints, by which it
fastens itself to anything it touches.' The
'Honeysuckles wehave in great vari

so few show their love in a prac

The Periploea, or Trirginian Silk :is a
rapid growing, fine climber, and will twine
itself around a tree or any other objecifor
twenty or forty feet in height. • The`foliage
is'bright and glossy, but the flowers;, are
brown and not showy.
The Chinese Wistaria is one of the• most
rapid growing of all the climbing plants,

The racemes are from ten to twelve inches
long, and well, filled with delicate and

abundant, and of a pleasant lively glean.
It succeeds best in a rich, deep loam. It
does not flower until the plant gets strong,
and the older the plant the more freely it
seems to flower.
The Climbing Roses are now to be had of

The Bignonia or Trumpet Flozver, is a
magnificent climbing plant, producing large
trumpet-shaped scarlet flowers, with some
thing of an orange tinge, and of great
beauty. They are produced in clusters.
A good plant trained to a pillar or

Victor EMEIRTICI'S Dominions.
The New-York Post gives the following
graphic sketches of the condition of the
territory and cities,
,recently added to the
kingdom of Sardinia.
-It is not merely, an, ,additional :territory
and population that Sardinia has acquired.
The sceptre ,of Victor , EManuel is now
swayed over some'of the noblest cities of
Italy, and the most interesting in the
world. When Lombardy was ceded to
Sardinia, we took occasion to speak of the
importance and splendor' of Milan ; but by
the acquisition of Tuscany, the , Sardinian
crown gains Florence; as Rogers, says in
his "Italy,", "of all fair, cities' ;on
earth, the fairest "—one containing greater
treasures of art than any city in. Europe,
excepting Rome, and one rendered sacra
to the student and aitist by the memories
of the great men who once trod its streets ;
Michael Angelo, Dante, Petrarch, Boccac
cio, Da Vinci, Cellini, A,merigo Vespucci,
Giotto, Brunnelleschi, and others promi
nent in the history and art of Italy. A
`city_so well known as Florence, needs no
description from us, here. Its monarchs
had in the Pitti Palace royal residence
nobler even than the Tuileries, Sehonbrunn,
or Windsor Castle, and Victor -Emanuel's
capital and palace at Turin offer no such
regal grandeur as this new provincial, city
that lies in the vale of Arno, and is guard.
ed by the Apennines, with Fiesole and
Bellosguardo standing like mountain senti
nels outside its massive walls.
Then but a few miles distant is Sienna,
a city of near twenty thousand inhabitants,
with streets, rich in. medimval architecture,
and a cathedral which, out of Italy, would
be considered a iniracle . of splendor. There
is Lucca, with a population of about twenty
five thousand, in a rich agricultural dis
trict, with a modern aqueduct rivaling in
extent and elegance those of Roman anti
quity, and. • connected by railways with
Florence. Thero,itaisa„ witl i tw,onty-one
thousand souls, itiUniVersitr, and As inev
itable leaning tower. There is Arezzo, where
Petrarch was born, and :more -.important
than all, but. Florence, there is Livorno:—
outrageously Anglicised into the uneupho
nious Leghorna flourishing seaport, with
a population of seventy-five thousand, and
more commerce than any town in Italy,
excepting, perhark Naples, and Genoa.
"Tuining toward the 'East we find Farina,
with about forty-onethousand, and. Modena,
with about twenty-eight• thousand inhabi
tants; both quietly prosperous towns. Be
yond these is Bologna which, with ,its
seventy-five thousand inhabitants, was for
merly the second city of the Papal States.
Its University is world renoWned, and
though the •city may not boast the archi
tectural grandeur of, other Italian towns,
its 'buildings, as well as its people, have an
independent character ,of their own. A
little' further is Ferrara, with thirty thou
sand inhabitants; a grand palace, ,'and
somewhat gloomy 'reminiscences of" the
house of Este and Your: operatic,, ; -friend
Lucretia Borgia: Still further and near

The Lost Artit
A great deal of nonsense has been utter
ed by - sensation lecturers and magazine
writers about wonderful, arts which perished
with the ancients.. To trust in the lamen
tations of these wiseacres over the " lost
arts," one would think,we had fallen upon
very degenerate times indeed. But none
of the doleful stories are true. Cleopatra,

wonderful things have not been
since repeated; but they were only such
things as are not worth doing 'over again.
If we had occasion to build such a foolish
thing as a pyramid, we would improve on
our modelin every respect; and instead of
keeping a hundred...thousand half-starved
slaves at the work for twenty years, we
would turn it out finished in a few months:
George taw and ahundred 'others would
be willing to take the'contract at a day's

If anY people, now-a-days, lived in a
condition like the ancients, they would be
objects for sincere• pity, and it would be
our duty speedily to send missionaries
among them. What a lamentable sight

The intelligent foreiiin correspondent .of
the_Wateirm.an and /4/actor thus describes
this interestinerelie. There is, however,
some in Con'sistencyin•his words, at, one time
speaking of its " good- repair,v at another
of its " excellent preservation." The . for
is :the, more correct: The arch now
appears , as it was; originally,, but this: s be
cause of pkillful , restoratiOn. We reinem
ber asking a well known Mesta°, manufac—
tare'''. the, 'Eternal, City why this arch
was not, like other -ruins, represented, in
this pretty style of ornament. Theanswer
was, that so little of the existing arch was
ancient; so much a mere restoration,
that it was not desirable. All this, how
ever, takes away nothing from the.histori
cal interest =of the monument, as it no,
doubt is now an exact reproduetion of the
structure;erected by the imperial conqueror
of„Jernsalein:
"Nothing I saw in Rome , interested me
more: han this. It has - ,been,put in a state
of good repair; having suffered very much
from the ravages of time.. the inside
of the arch is a bas 7 relief, representing, the
Romans carrying away from the ruined
temple'of Jerusalem the Ark of the Cove
nant, ,
.the sacred vessels, and the golden
candlestick with seven
. branches. ThiS, is
in an excellent state ofpreservation. 'Here
ene sees with his own eyes 'the evidence of
-the fulfillment of. our Lord's declaration
concerning the destruction of Jerusalem,'
its temple, and the dispersion of the Jews.
For nearly eighteen , centuries this mute
tablehaS been verifYing predictions found
in the sacred 'records respecting that obsti
nate and incorrigible_ L people, and showing,
beyond &question, the reliability of pro
fane history on this point. Others may
not be affected • as I ain, by these things";
but nothing .I ever read or saw made the
truths of which .I have spoken, and, con
nected, with them, the whole Biblical his
•so real as this. It appeared to
annihilate 'time, and tp cause those great
tragical facts to stand'tmt, as if 'even now
transpiring. I could., ; see ,the:legions of
Titus, , having , thrown down .every stone 'of
the ;Terri' peculiar glory, the temple, taking
up their treasures, and bearing them away
in a solemn yet triumphal procession, to
their: own proud capital. If we ask for the
probl of this, there it is, in that beautiful
Arch of Titus, and especially in that rep
resentation that Commemorates the total
destruction of that structure which was
the joy ,as„well. as idolatry of every true
Israelite."
It is singular what a remarkable taste. the
American , . shows for a good carpet. It
seems •to be impossible far him to walk
cornfhrtOljr, 'through life without a caßet,
und4r his.fect. . Every, man who occupies*
a few. square feet of house-room. must have
the brick or the boards protected from his
tread by so much carpeting.. Here carpet
ing.appears,in a:thousand, places where in
other parte Of 'the World' it is never seen.•
The English shop-keeper thinks the bare
boards . good enough ler the' reception of
his customers, and seldom does the mer
chant think of Wing to the elegance of
his POunting-room by laying down a square
of Brussels. Only-those 'churches devoted
'to the service of the more aristocratic
worshippers'are furnished with the comforts
.of.sl4clennirpiter, the bare wood or bricks
or"Sione being considered more consonant
with the ".self-denying duties• of the sanc
=tuary." • (Widely different -is' it with the
•well-td-do Ameriban. He believes in en
joying life; and considering that the car
pets, contribute to life's enjoyment he does
not hesitate to spread• everywhere he is
accustomed to tread• with a due quantity of
three-ply, or Tapestry,' or Brussels, or Tur
key.. Notwithstanding the high cost Of
foreign carpetings in this country, it is yet
surprising , to what an extent these are an
• mildly imported. In 1859, more than two
million worth' of carpetings was
impcitted.into.lbe United ,States. Of that
