The Beacon Light.
The fisher was out, on the stormy sea,
And the day was almost gone,
When the threatening clouds and the wind arose,
And night. owe swiftly on.
Ho turned the prow of his little boat.
Toward the dear and distant shore,
And rowed for the snug and sandy oove
He'd left but the morn before.
He bent on his oars with•tt manly heart,
And flea. o'er the created wave, •
Till the storm grew tierce, and . the night so dark,
Ho thought ef a.waiery grave.
The rook-bound Coast is upon his lee,
And a gale on his weather bow;
How he longs for the light of • the little cot,
To show him the pathway now I
Ha! thanks bele God i fora glimmer be sees,
New strength and fresh hope it imparts ;
Like the voice of our - Lord when he walked, on
waves,
And , gladdened his hearts,
Now soon grates the kneel on tile-wave-washed
sands,
And the fisher is home once more;
With a grateful heart he trims the-lamp
Which guided him safe to shore.
Now night after night, o'er th'e stormy sea, ,
From the fisher's window,parte,
That light shines forth as a welcome guide -
To the storm-tossed ones again. •
0 should not We, *hem the beacon light
Of the blicseed Bonk divine, •
Ilathguided,to Christ, and will guide to heaven,
For all men bid it shine! • •
Ay, place it on every:rookrheight
O'rlooking life's stormy'sea,
That the•struggling soul in:the night 'of sin,
May , findAslvation free.
And he who bids us light this !Map. • •
Will takerlti fronehorrowl night,
And bring us in peace to the'home above,

1. The section appears to-Mme to booths-is

Church members before they are baptized;
and if they aril children:of professing par

says Fisher, published by our Board, " can

It would protract this discussion too
much to present the 'argument at length.
These hints, however, will sho'w` that in
this, as in other aspects; there are very
grave and. formidable objections to the
doctrine. that "all baptised persons are
members of the Church." Our Church has
in her highest Judicatory uttered her con
denination .of the baptisms of Rome, and
to many reflecting minds, there are scarcely
less weighty. objections to those of :Meth

slt surely important that in re
constructing.,-our: Discipline, we do not nul
lify the essential features of our own sys

of other' denomination&

abolition of slavery. An attempt made by
one person to apologise for the South, was
very speedily put down by the people as

Moderator of the Established Assembly,
discoursed last year in a manner that ex
cited general notice. He has this week
`been defending his position. The subject
of forms of. prayer were thus noticed by
him
" The reverend Doctor went on to
say, that .the Genevan Church was early
favored with a correct- and well-conceived
ferm of worship, and than order was adopt
ea in Succession by ail the national ‘Presby-
Aerial). Churches ot• kindredl faith and .dis
cipline. France, Scotland, Switzerland,
' Holland Hungary and Western Germany,
airiest at the same pried, embraced this
node of worship. To th 4 day Great, Brit
ain and America offer the' sole instances of
- Calvinistic Churches without aliturgy ;!
-and it was,oniy the war that had prevented'
the American Church from going on with
improvements' in the formi of worship.

according to the forms prescribed in the
Constitution of the United States, is the
visible representative of our national exist

solemn rebuke to those under its authority,
who, forgetful of their Christian obliga
tions, sympathize with the rebellion, or ne
glect to uphold the hands 9,f the Govern
