two Ways to Love the
,Baby.
Little Richard was the youngest child in
the howie,iild 13 - o, :everybody °peetecf
His sisters were always buying toys for
him,
and laughing •at everything he 'said
and, did,..so that he would have been quite
a, spoiled child if , another little brother
had not come to take a share of the admi
ration and love ,Agi A .,l* . p.ayd thoughtba-,

He was cafe - 11' 4 i The Baby "` by everybody
in the houife: ,
"What a awe, plump little fellow he
is I" said old Miss Meal* when she came'to'
pity her .first; :Visit • to ~ t he ,young stranger.

looking fiercely at Miss Meara. "He is n't

" No, no, I shall not !" cried Richard.
now quite angry. " I shall give , him all
my' play-things—my milk-Cart, and my
rocking-horse, and my man that makes
bows."
. And Richard went close up
,to the side
of the bed on which the baby lay, and stood
up on tiptoe in order to kisS him. Now
it's the easiest thing in the world' to kiss.
All you've got to do is to pucker up your
lips, touch semebody's cheeks with them,-
and snake, a little smacking noise. But
Richard looked at Miss Mears as much as
to say—
" There ! do n't you see how I love my
little brother ?" But after a few months
the baby,grew old enough, to want some
thing to play with, and the nurse took from
the drawer a silver whistle which had been
' given to Richard, and let him tali° it in his
awkward little hands. Richard was playing
on the floor with his blocks; but the 0-
went be saw the whistle he jumped up, and
ran and snatched it away.
" It 's my whistle," said lie.
"But you'll lend it to baby," said the
nurse.
"No, I want it myself;" and Richard
walked up'and down, whistling, 'while, the
baby cried ( ashard as it could.
" I thought you said you loved the baby,
Richard," said his mamma-,'`
" Yes, I love him," replied Richard.
" I kissed him four times and two times."
" But he Cala 't, play with kisses," said his
mamma, "and he wants 'something to play
with, now lie is ietting to be such a great
. boy."
,Richard made no answer, but went on
walking up and down; whistling.
Jae then his .dinner waahrought'
beefsteak, and potato, and bread. Just• as
he was going to begin to eat, his mamma,
took his plate away.,
"This is my dinner," said she. ,
Richard could hardly help crying.
" Can't I have any,dinner ? he asked.
" But, this is my dinner," said his
mother. " Why should I give you my
dinner ?" •
"You"won't have any. little Richard if
you don't give him anything to eat !" said'
he, in a, mournful voice. " Bait you do n't
love your little Richard one bit.'
"Why, yes I do ! I kissed him four
times and two times."
Then Richard burst out laughing, and,he
jumped up as quick as lightning and ran
and gave the: whistle to the baby.
"`You'see there are two ways of loving .
people," said his mamma. " One way is
to kiss them, and another way is lend or
give them your things. And I love you so
dearly that I'm going to give you this nice
dinner, and you love the baby so dearly
that you 'vs lent him your whistle."
Richard laughed again and looked
pleased, and for a long tinae he was. kihti,to
the baby and would let him take his toys
whenever he pleased.
But by-and-bye baby, who kept growing
older and larger every day, got old enough
and large enough to come to, prayers every
morning. Richard had always sat in his
mamma's lap, holding her hand at prayers,
and expected to do so all his life; perhaps, for
when the nurse brought baby down and put
him in his own old place, his lips quivered
and he felt greatly injured. His mamma
had his little high-chair drawn closely to
her side, and offered to let him hold her
hand; but he pushed his chairawayt and
would not be comforted. His sister Jane
made signs to him to come and sit in her
lap, but he would not look at her.• If he
had dared-he would haVe r pushed his littlo
brother and Made him., give up his seat.
When breakfast was ready and he found
that baby, was to come to the table, he felt
still more displeased.
"It's real mean for baby to take my
seat," ; said he. '
"It is mamma who is ' mean,' not baby,"
said sister Jane.
" Do-you mean to call dear mamma mean
for letting the baby, sit next to her. Why',
the baby always sits there. It , used to' be
my,seat,
.and I gave it to ; Margaret, and
then it. was little Carrie's, but .she, don't
want' it now beCause She's gone to heaven.
So she gave .it to you. And 'now you'ye
given it to baby,
• It's nice to have things
to oive aWay."
While Jane was talking she drew Rich
ard in his chair up to the table, and gave
him his breakfast. By degrees, his ill-hu
mor flew iavajr, and lie laughed as heartily
as any of -them to see,how baby picked, up
what was 'onhis plate - with his fingers, PIA
it into his spoon, and then tried to. feed
himself"`
Baby
Baby had a good deal to learn about this
time. The moment he came to the table
he would begin to shout "Baby! baby!"
as loud as he could; by which he meant,,
" Wait upon me first l' and when his papa
said laughing, " Why, you think the world
Was made for you my little fellovi, doi/t,
you ?" he nodded his head and said, " Yes'`
yes!".
And his mamma said, "Baby must fold
his hands and shut his .eyes while - papa
asks a blessing."
So baby soon found, it did no good. to
call for breakfaSt till his hands htnl been
folded and his eyes shut, and pretty soon
he began to think the best way would be,te
ask a blessing himself. And, one day,
when his papa was not at home, he shut
his eyes, bent his head down to. his plate,•
and said, "Bears I bears l" His mamma
did .not t. know what• he meant, but all the
children burst out laughing, and said he
meant." prayers! prayers!" and baby nod
ded his • head and said, ",Yes, yes I" and
looked very much pleased" indeed. Then
Richard,, ran „round . from his side : ": o£ the
table and put hiS arms round baby's neck,
and kissed him half •a dozen times.
" I like baby," said he, "and I won't
snatch any of his things away, never this
thousand years."
This love-fit - lasted till they got up 'stairs
into the nursery, whett F Richard wanted ,to,
ride on his rocking-horse, , aricr baby would
not let him.
" Make baby go away!" said he to the
nurse •
The nurse tried to divert baby by offer
ing to shim bun or to tell him' a
story about a kitty. But this did no good..
He'kept pulling at Richard, and making a
sort of smacking noise with his lips.
" He wants you to play horse with him;"
said the nurse.' "Do play with him, that's
a good boy."
"No, no, I want to . ride; I don't want
to play horse," said Richard. •
" You've grown serfieh lately,"'eaid the
nurse. " Come,' baby, I'll play horse with
you." •
" New I'll - go right don
l and tell mamma s
yon Called rae a Shell- r fish," • i,sai Ri
• " You may, and welcome," said the
nurse laughing.
So ' Richard went down stairs to his
Marnina, and said in a, whining tone, " Ma
ria says lam a shell-fish •boY.".
":Then I suppose you are;" said , his
mamma. 4 , 4 What made her say you were'
selfish'?"
"'ffeeituse I wouldn't play hers° with

"Did , baby.want you very much to play

"And you wouldn't ? 0 Richard !"
Then his mamma, who was Writing a
letter, wont on -with her business and. said
no more. -
Richard bring round.'ler, fidgeting and
meddling With her things.' '
" May I have your .seissors and cut some

• 'f No, Lfeel too selfish to take the troub

But I'd -as lief' kiss> you as not, bc.leause
that won't take long, and I shan't have to

Richard laughed.
" Well, I think I'll take the trouble Ito

, And his. 'vanillin said, " Yes, I will.

So Riehayd went up stairs and played

and he trotted' all round the nursery; 'Rd
made believe eat hay, and he said to tin.rse\
"Now I am not a shell-fish. I'm n'horse.

over. the. vessels thatclay at the wharf, he
stepped upon the deck of one, at the stern

" Hey, my man, .w,hat is the matter ?" •
The riPgro ;op, his eyes, and look

.
As Mr: B.;started for the, shore he, heard
Moses give t o heavy sigh, followed by a deep
groan. Moses was not at all pleased with
the pre d sent phase .of affairs. He was
strongly impressed with the idea that 'B.,

it was this that made him so unwilling to

Mr. B. and VOL O. then went to B.'s
store, drew up the writings, and closed the
sale,'after which they returned to the ves-
W. Mr. B. approa.ched the negro, who sat
with his eyes fixed upon, the deck, wrapt
in meditation ,of the , most, awful-forebod
ings,. 'aind said--" Well, Moses, `..1 haw%
bought you!'
Moses made a very low
• bow, and every
Inuicle of his face,worked with emotion, as
be replied, "Is 'Yen, ma.4sa ? Where's I
gwine, mama ,
?, Is I gwine to Georgy ?"
"No," said. Mr. 13., " I'm , a merchant
.here in the city; lyonder' is my store, and
I want you to Attend on the store; and `I
have purchased ,wife and children,
too, that'you may laet be separated."
"Brew" God' fbr• dat! and, mama, kin I
go to meetin" sometimes?"
"Yes, Moses, you can go to church three
times (M. the Sabbath, and every night in
the 'week ; and you can pray as, often as
you choose, and as loud as you choose, and
as long as you choose; and every time you
'pray whether it be at home or in the
wao, you to pray for 'me my
wife,,, and - all my children; for if you are a
good man, your prayers will do us no harm,
.and we need them very much ; and if you
wish to, you may pray, for everybody of my
name in the 'State. It will not injure
there."
While Mr. B. was dealing out these
privileges to Moses, the negro's eyes danced
in their sockets, and his full heart laughed
,outright for_gladuess, exposing two rows of
as .even clean ivories as any African can
boast; and his , hearts response was, " Bress
God, bress God all de' time, and bress you,
too, massa; , Moses neber fink 'bout he
gwine td have all dese comroodationers ; dis
make me link liout Joseph in de, Egypt."
And after Moses had' poured a few blessings
upon Col.' C.; bade him a' warm adieu, q and
requested him to give his love and fare
well to his mistress, the,children, and, all
the servants, he followed Mr..B. to the
store,to „enter up,on _the ,functions of 4is
new office.
The return inf the schooner hrought to
Moseshisi
_ .
Early the next - Spring, as Mr. 13. was
OM day, standing at the storedoor„he saw
a man leap upon the wharf 'fibm, the deck
of a vessel, and walk "hurriedly toward the
store. He soon recognised him as Col. C.
They ,exehan'ged sahitations;` and to the
Colonel's inquiry after Moses, Mr. B. re
plied that be was up stairs Measuring grain,
and invited him to 'walk up and see him.
Soon Mr. B.'s' attention was arrested by a
very, confused. noise — above. He listened,
and heard an unusual, shuffling of feet,.
some one sobbing violently, and
,some one
talking very hurriedly ; and. he determined
to go up and see vwhat was going on.
When he reached =the head of the stairs,
he was startled by Seeing Moses
„in the
middle orthe doviii 'upon OntiAn l ee,
with his arms around the Colonel's wait,
and talking rapidly, while the Colonel
stood weeping. So soon as the, Colonel
could sufficiently control , his feelings, he
told Mr. B. that he had never been•able to
free himself from the influence of•Moses'
Prayers; and th+ during the pat year, he
and his wife, and all his, children, had been
converted to God..
Moses responded, -"Bress God, massa
C.; do I way up bea i l neber forgit you in,
my prayers; I :oilers put de..ole maSga;side
de new > one. Bress God, dis make Moses,
tink 'bout Joseph in Egypt again!'
The 'Colonel then stated to Mr. B. that
his object in coining to Baltimore was to
buy Moses andhis family back again. , But
Mr. B. assured him that was outt of the'
question; for he could not part with him,
and he intended to manumit Moses and his
Wifeat forty, and his children at.thirty-:
five years of age.
Moses was not far wrong in his refer
ence to Joseph. For when Joseph was
sold into Egypt, God overruled it to his,
good, ani he obtained blessings that,were :
far beyond his expectations ; so with -Mo
ses. Joseph eventually proved the instru
merit in God's hands of saving the lives of
those who sold 'him. Moses proved the
instrument in -GolVs. hands- of saving tlie ,
man's soul who sold him..
Old Moses is:rtip.iiving.-",, ge long since

the opinion of the Berlin statisticians; who
have-the credit` f being well-informed Men
on all'such 'subjects. For the nonce we let'
this point pass.
We wish, however, to, call the attention
of our readars to nmost important clasSifi
cation of, Ban patholic nations, or, coon-
tries,` for shall have occasion to usathese
words' interchangeably in this article.
'The First Class"'coniii3ts of those ROman
Catholic ,nations in Which there is a *Pro
tstant element, greater or .= less, inter-
MOrsed and4lifinsd. To , this category be
'l9n,gs‘, in every parish of, whieh.
there is a l‘rotestant church, and, more or,
,less of a Plotestant population; Franceiin'
;which,, there d aro ,a ; million and <a quarter,pr
'a million, and, a; balf,:of Protestants-,dis
tribitted—by no means equally hoWever—'
:aiming the thirty-Seven, millions that can,
,
stitute the entire population; Belgium,
where is now • ir-considerable number of
efinrchei ar4:Pitotestant. chapels' for the
French,, Flemish; and DUtch
p i le in theSoltheilii;'Weitern, 'Northern,
and Middle psrtipps, of "tlielc.ingdom, and
several for the Woman fan .the Eastern;
Italy, where v`there is a population of
twenty-two thousantin the !Ones of;110-
Tiont (the Waldenses) who- are „Protestant
in everythiga• but the name, and some
twentPlive ,i9r,thirty chapels, in the princi
p4l cities foVforeign„Protestants-4glish,
American, Swiss, French, and German!
Besides this, within--the latt few years,
Protetpt chapels for native Italians have"
openea: in 'Man l y of 'the Cities in
Northern and Central Italy, and even Na
ples and Palermo; Austrian Germany, in
chiding all ilie"Germtinie Tart of , the Aus-(
trian empire, with %Vali% and- a:few-small
Duchieg, which 'there are 'diSsemi
natedProtestants, with churches`,
'audtail Bavaria and the larger china ,many)
churches ) Hungary, where'there is %large
Protestant element, and in'the Eastern part
including Transylvania, a" large number
~,of
people who belong to the Greek and United
Greek Communions ; Poland, where there is
still a " remnant" of Protestants of the Polish
race, and'a considerable nunaber of German
immigrants. are spraaking of the
modern kingdoln 'of Poland, with its five
millions of people. But if we speak of
Poland as it was at the First Partition,
(1773,) we shall find that in the portions
that belong now to Prussia there is a con
siderable number of Protestants • even in
Gallicia or , Austrian !Poland there are -a
few; whilst in the portions which Russia
obtained by the Three Partitions, and
which DOW form a constituent pare of her
yast empire, ,there are some Protestants;
and millions of the Greek faith; Canada East,
in which the English Protestant element
is large, and that which is French, though
not large, is,appreciable and increasing.
In all these emintries—lreland, France,
Belgium ; • Italy, Austrian Germany, and
Bavaria,, Hungary, Poland, Canada.East—
although =the majority of the .people, in
most cases overwhelmingly so, are Roman
Catholics,
• and the political, civil, and-social
power .and.; influence in , their. hands; yet
there is a-Protestant - element' which' must
he of irnmense 'importance 'in the work of
imparting thei ,Gospel to their inhabitants.
The Secdnd Class of Roman Catholle.colin
tries consists'of those in •which there are
no native Protestant element, or none that is
- appreciable: These countries are Spain and
Portugal, in Europe ; Mexico, Central'
America, the Spanish and French Islands,;
(Cuba and Porto ) etc., in North
'America; and the entire. South America,
excepting the British and' Dutch Guiana,
which are the only Protestant countries on
that Continent.
A. few. remarks, respecting-the state of
things ,in some of these countries maybe
interesting to our readers. •
In Spain-Proper we know of no Protest
ant natives; nor are there more than two,
or at the utmost three, Protestant.4mpels
for, foreigners , in that country. When we
were there fifteen years ago, there was not
one? • At Gibraltar, 'which is geographi
cally a portion of Spain, but politically,is a
part of the )3ritish empire, and has been
for more'than one hundred and fifty , yeah,
there are three or four Episcopal churehes
and'one WesleYan for the`garrison and,_Eng
lish speaking inhabitants, and three .Span
ish Protestant- chapels.: These chapels
comprise the largest' Spanish population in
any, one place in =the world that is Protest
ant; of which we have any knowledge.
In Portugal there are no native .Protest
ants that „we know anything of, and,,only
three chapels for foreign Protestants ; two
at Lisbon and one at Oporto. That in the
last-named place is' English, (Episcopal,)
as is one of those in the former: ; city, whilst
the other,is German. There was in Lis
bon, -,some..years ago,.a Protestant service
in. POrtug,ueee, conducted by a converted
Spanish priest, rather privately;' and yet
it was very ; eolisiderably known, We know
not what has become of it.
Thermis no Protestant chapel in Mexibo
that we are aware Of. If any' Protestant
service has been held in that, country,it
must have , beem in connexion vith the Brit
. ,
ish. Embassy and for short seasons., Some
thing of the sort has been attempted 'at
Vera Cruz, but no "permanency was at
tained:7, , „
In the States of Central,-America, with
the Aseeption of the English .ehapels
Belize and the German, ones in%Mos4uitia, ,
we know of no lirotestintserviees.
Nor do we know of any , nativs,,Frotest;-:
ants in the,Spanish islands, kko - r,of chapel,
for foreign., Protestants. All the attempts
of. the American Seamen's l Frietid Society'
to , establish a , - chapel' for 'Ainerielin,,atut,
English seamen;nt Havana were fiiiitl i ess.
And in the French Islands we. know. of bat
one Protestant.‘ohapel, that .at St. Martin,
(Martinique, ) , :of which - Mr. Frossard,
the Reforined .- Church, is pastor. . There'
aie several Protestant chapelsiti:gayti!
With . the 'exception, of 'the anianas r iwa
know of no countries in-South America in.
which there are native Protestants; 'nor.
any Protestant chapels ~at all, excepting
those for English, A:nierican, French, and
Germans,. temporary - :residenta. and •
grants; together with that of the Walden
scancolony near Montevideo:, •
;..It may be proper to say 4 Word in regard,
to;Protestant countries in which there is a
Roman.Catholie element, greater'or less. " .
In England and . Scotland' there is qVite
