Mids t% pastor of ,the First Presbyterian church Hartford Conn. fig ttt Croolibd , -It is a sad fact that nearly every young lady in fashionable life has lateral curva ture of the spine. This comes on at the age of ten or eleven, and continues slowly but steadily to increase, Unnoticed even by a mother's watchful eye,itill the child is really deformed; one shoulder is much larger and higher than the other, and one hip higher, so that the dressmaker is obliged to put cotton in the dress, to make the back look fiat and square. The boys, their ,brothers, have no such trouble ; why'should they ? The question may well be asked by every thoughtful pa rent. Z answer. that 'improper dress, and other physiological errors, in which girls constantly indulge, produce this mischief. The dress of the girl is always tighter than her brother's and this is done while she is tplite`ybuttg, " td giVe her a foiln,” the mother says, as if God did not do this when he made the child. This constant pressure upon the muscles of the spine, which are designed to keep it straight, causes absorption of those mus cles, and_askoh,t 4 sightr nv is „used more than the "left, the spine is drawn under the lightshoulcler`blade, Wes making it pro- Teat.

He walked through a nu►n ber of back streets, and as he turned a cor ner, he saw assembled around a `pump a party of little boys who were playing at marbles. On seeing him approaching, they began to pick up their marbles, and run away as fast as they could. One little fel low not having seen him as 'soon as the rest, could not accomplish this so soon ; and before he had succeeded in gathering up his marbles, the minister had closed' upon him,-and placed his hand upon his shoul der. There they were, face to face, the minister of God and the poor little ragged boy who had been caught in the act of playing at marbles on Sunday. morning. And how did the minister deal with the boy ? for that is what .T. want you to observe. He might have said to the boy, "What are you doing here? You are breaking the Sabbath; don't you deserve to be punished for thus breaking the command of God ?" But he did nothing of the kind. He sim ply said, " Have you found all your marbles ?" "No," said the boy, "I have not." " Then I will help you find them ;" whereupon -he kneeled down and helped to look for the marbles, and as he did so he remarked, " I liked to play at, marbles when a little boy very much, and I think I could beat you`; but, he added, "I never playod marbles on Sunday." The little boy's attention was arrested. He liked his friend's face, and began to wonder who he was. Then the minister said, " I am going to a place where 1 think you would like to be—will you come with me ?" " Where do 'you live ?" " Why, I live at such and such a place," was the reply. " Why, that is the minister's house I" ex claimed the boy, as if he did not suppose that a kind man and the minister of the Gospel could be the same person. " Why, I am the minister myself, and if you will come with me, I think I can do you some good." " My hands are dirty ; I cannot go." " Here is a pump—why not wash ?" I am so little that I can't wash and pump at the same time." "If you'll wash, PII pump." He at once set to work, and pumped, and pumped, and pumped ; and as he pumped, the little boy washed his hands and fds face - till they were quite clean. " My hands are wringing wet, and I don't know how to dry them." • The minister pulled out of his pocket a clean pocket-handkerchief and offered it to the boy. "But it-is clean!' • " Yes," was the reply ; " but it was made to be dirtied!? The little boy dried his hands and face with the handkerchief, and then accompanied the minister to the door of the Sunday School. Twenty years after, the minister was walking in a street in one of the largeSt cities in America, when a tall gentleman tapped him on the shoulder, and looking in to his face said, ".You don't remember me ?" No," said the minister, " ; I don't." "Do you remember twentyr years ago finding a little boy playing at marbles round a pump ; ? Do .you remember that boy's being too dirty to go to school, and ydur pumping for him, and speaking kindly to him, and taking him to, school ?" "0 r said the minister, " I do remem ber." " Sir," said the gentleman, 41 I was that boy. I rose inhusiness; and!becarne a lead ing man.

The education of.the, two princes, (Who . were brought up - in retirement,) was ,con ducted by Mardonius, an old. Slave beleng- , ing to the family of their ;inether.,. Gallus: always •remained,firan,in his .•attachment to the Christian faith, while Julian, nursing in secret the remembrance - of the cruelties' which his family had suffered, was , led on little by little, to• reject the religion Of. Jesus, and to seek for support and consols-. tion by secret intercourse with those-philos ophers.. who .were • striving.. with, so much ability and perseverance to breathe a new life into the decaying 4:cunt of Paganism. "The indiVitiial who Made .the greatest impression on him was the philosopher Maximus, whose philosophy was interwoven with theosophy and demonology. He was a man who sought what was showy and ex traordinary, who eagerly searched into. fu turity, and was given to the practice of magic." [Neander's Life of Julian, p.:79.] A person who was really anxious to find some substitute for Christianity could easily be drawn. away from the faith by a system which gratified human pride, and Julian, at first in secret, and 'afterwards, openly declared himself in favor of Pagan ism. ' • On his ascension to thelmperial dignity, in 361, he sought to restore the heathen worship in all its splendor, depriving Christian churches of their property, ,and seeking by threats and bribery to make others follow his example Of apostacy. The followers of Jesiis were no longetper mitted to profess their faith openly; and in order to falsify, if possible, the prediction of our blessed Lord concerning the temple at Jerusalem- j he encouraged the Jews to about three hundred , years after 1 its destruction. They accordingly corn- I menced the work, "but were -obliged to de- i sist before even the ,- fohndatietis were laid, for balls of fire issued from the ground, accompanied with a great explosion and a tremendous earthquake, 'which- dispersed both the materials that were collected, and the worknien."- • ['Mosheim's Ecclesiastical History, vol. i, , p. 221, and lirarburton's Work's, vol. p. 374.] Meanwhile, Julian was• anxious to end the lung war with the Persians, and his first .campaign Lagainst them„ was. crowned with success. It was during this expeditidfi that he wrote his threebodke against Chris tianity. [See Gieseler's' HistorY, vol., i., p. 185.] Atter giving hint full 'credit. for natural abilities, wit, aiait'vivabity, no 'un prejudiced mind could fail to confess the weakness , . of his assaults mpon the citidel of the' faith.= " He - aimed to' onereiroia the Christian religion, but has confirmed it; his arguments- against it are : perfectly harm= less, and insufficient to unsettle the weakest Christian; for he has not _made. one.hbjec tion of moment against the Christian reli gion;,as: contained in the au thentie - books of the geii'Testament!'
