The wind was blowing off the land and the bahny breezes were loaded with fragrance from Sxe blossoS trees and flowers which were so exliilarating that I becam^ aS em-aptm-ed wi h the country. Although meeting some of tlTe onS inhabitants, who on first acquaintance |ave me L unfriendly oSn but on becommg more acquainted, I was quite wOUng to retract The people were anxious to make me at home,and in many instances took nTnvA han ordinary pains to make me happy and comfortable TfTe' becoSS' familiar ^yith the habits ot the people. I was soon introduced by nZ^? formed friends to the most eminent doctors, with whom I afterwards Tad the pleasure of making a number of scientific tom-s, visiting a Wteverv place and people, and becoming acquainted with all classes Tdiseases and their remedy. They use nature's own medicine to heal tiie wound that has been caused by disobedience to nature's laws. After ZmeZt in this way for a number of years, I concluded to start for The AmS River, which was a very rough and fatiguing journey. HavS/aT Tas^ reached the neighborhood of the river, I foSnd no troubleTiatever ha formmg an acquamtance with the people, and here I concludpr Jn^n^ my stay, which lasted nearly ten years. I at once Vro?«Sfl +. f ^! the herbs of which the DiscJveiy 'and Piis'^arTc^Csed f^^^ diately set out on the work of healing the sick and afflic ed a^ so great was the demand and so wonderful the cures produced bv mv m..^cine that the govermnent appointed agents to take and deSer ft Imot Tf S'l?^ ?^'^'- ^^' «iedicine I now introduce to the sick Ld afiiicted of North America, which is only an old permanent medicine ^vn'^I'l/f ? f '' \«^try, for the relief of afflicted humanly I feel proud tiiat I have been able to make this discovery, although havi?iaon,n>-T, xi. _, , .^ , by all .he doctors ofth.t ™«>to'7anrw].irieil7og lor4'-o:''gZ A IJKIEF KTSTORY OF It was Bouprlit by nearly every family, and wouUl be obtained even at a prreat sacrifice— it was considered unsafe for a family to be without it. This medicine was hailed with great joy— and well it might be, when it has saved the mother and her child, husbands and wives, brothers and S'sters, the high, the low, the rich, the poor— all could rejoice in the Wonderful Discovery. 1 remember one instance in particular, of being called to visit o sick man. The messenger came with great haste, asked for admission into my dwelling, which not being answered at once, became impatient at the delay, opened the door and rushed in, cryin^ with a loud voice, saying that his father was dying, and unless I made ready with all speed and came at once his father would be gone. I accordingly ordered my horse, and arrived at the dwelling in a few minutes. On entering, the family, which consisted of ten children, were all crying. The old man lay on his bed groaning with pain, and could not speak. Life seemed fast ebbing away. On examination I found that he was suffering from inflammatory rheumatism. I instantly "ave him a dose of the Discovery, which had the effect of reviving his waited energies. In an hour I repeated the dose, which enabled him to speak, and the pain began to abate. Three hours after I gave him tJie third dose, which soon made him quite comfortable, after which he continued to take th*r medicine as directed, continuing its use for about three months, when he became as sound as ever. I might here say that this family did not formerly believe that there was any virtue in the Womderful Discovery. But this lesson taught them that tneir Avisdom was folly, and ever after the Discovery was their best friend. It would be useless to relate the •••arious instances of the almost miraculous cures of the follow- ing diseases : Bronchitis, Consumption, Liver Complaint, Rheumatism, Piles, Female Complaints in all its various forms. Dropsy, Heart Disease, Asthma, and all complaints originating from impure blood. As the country is flooded with all kinds of medicine, a great number of the afflicted have become disgusted with paying their money for naught, consequently discotu-aged of ever trying any other medicine, but I will here endeavor to make known to this doubting elass, the reasons why the Discovery is superior to any other yet introduced in the world. First, it being purely vegetable ; second, it has cured its thoitsauds ; third, it being possessed of such healing properties that the Government appointed officers to deliver it to the poor people free of charge, in order to save the poorer class of subjects — the rich embraced it with great I'oy; fourth, it is not sold for the sake of money, but for the love of saving" the afflicted ; fifth, the discoverer does not demand your money, out only desires to see the sick restored to health ; sixth, this preparation is made fi-om flowers, plants and roots, without the aid of alcohol, making it- a purely temperance medicine. The Pills are purely vegetable, ar^l are only used to keep the bowels regular, while the Wonderful Disc \>?ry does the great work of heahng the system. It may be asked by some dear afflicted ones, "why not let us hav.' 1 medicine for less money?" My answer is: Fu-st, that this medic has to be brought from South America, and you know that I have to ; for gathering the plants, flowers and roote, also, I have a large staff of men and women employed in preparing the medicine, and they must be paid ; and then my agents who are employed to urge you to try my medicine, have also to be paid, besides the material used is costly. But as far as myself is concei*ned, I don't want your money. All I v» ant you •le le ■y r V o X 4 3 1 o r V 9 % O X 3 i a r>tt.

FULL DIRECTIONS FOR FOR USING Dr. MORDAUNTS WON- DERFUL DISCOVERY. Tliere are some peciiHftrtieB in the operation of the Wonderful Dis- covery on the system, that may prove a satisfaction to the patient to know. For instancej when there is Canker of the Mouth, that extonds to the atomach and bowels as it often does, then the Diwcovery causes very severe pains and griping, this is caused by the medicine coming in direct contact with the inflamed surface. When the disease attacks the Lungs or Kidneys, the pain feels like needles shooting through you or being stung by bees. This must not alarm you, it will disappear in a few days, or as soon as the medicine can work its way through the stagnated part, the vital organs will then perform their functions. The most serious effect of the Discovery is wheie there is an inward Iiumor of an Erysipelas nature, then the pain is sometimes severe, and if the stomach is billions, a nauseating feeling is experienced, loathing and even vomiting. Now, of all possible diseases and all possible states of the system, this is where the Discovery is most needed, and, I believe, MiQ only thing that can give you permanent relief, I have known hun- dreds afflicted with Inward Erysipelas for years, and doctoring for every imaginablis disease, cured by a few bottles. Another very important point I wish to impress upon your mind is this, that in any condition or ijircumstance, oi; any disease of whatever nature you are suffering with, rr>.y Wonderful Discovery cannot injure you as it does not operate in everj- instance alike. Much has been said and written on the best time to take medicine, but in my judgment and experience, tiie best time is before meals or when the stomach is empty. My mode of treating Consumption is, take two of my Pills on going to bed, ii they operate well commence the Discovery in the morning, the dose to bo varied according to strength, if very weak, take half a toaspoonful in a half wine-glass of water, keeping in the meantime the chest and back well bathed in cod liver oil or turtle oil, as convenient, also, every other day, bathe the surface of the whole body in tepid soft water with enoxigh salt in it to be tasted, and use cai-bolic acid soap to cut the oil. After the body is rubbe'd thoroughly dry, then again apply the oil. If there should he pain, procure a bottle of my liniment which is an ariicle that cannot be surpassed for removing all inflamation ; using it thus, take a piece of flannel and fold it three or four thicknesses, then saturate it with the Lmiment and apply it, holding it with the hand to the parts affected mth pain, until it seems to draw and smart alter which remove it. The patient must not be permitted to talk much, as this usually irritates the lungs and produces exhaustion ; take plenty of out-door exercise, be careful to breathe tlurough the nose instead of the mouth, as this prevents, the air coming directly in contact with the lungs. Read carefuMy my article on lidw to keep well, which directs the kind of diet, by observing closely the laws of nature and you will find to your satisfaction that none seed despair, but that my medicine will cure; avoid all stimulants, Genbral Debility. — To insure certain relief, one dose of my com- found Cathartic Pills must be taken on going to bed, and after the owels move, commence the Discovery, the dose one teaspoonful three iimea a day in some water, use good nutritious food, also, bathe freely ir5*ry morning in soft water, followed by a sharp brisk rubbing, use a if^ DIKECT10N8 KoR USINU THE WONDKKKIL DISCOVEKY, coarse towel, take plenty of out-door exeroige, avoia draugbts, antf never bathe when in a perspiration. LivBR Complaint.— Take the ^JIb and Discovery as directed, be careful to avo id nexual excitement, intoxicating liquors and all opiates, feome are troubled with eore mouth and throat, for this I recommend to use the following :^Borax, Alum, Cayenne Pepper, of each a quarter 01 an ounce Sage and Gold-thread of each one ounce. Vinegar one tablespoonful ; water sufficient to steep, and Honey Efficient to sweeten the whole ; gargle and use for the throat. This is also good for infants' cankered mouth.

Broxchitis.— Take as directed— see note on Bronchitis, use my Lini. ment to remove pain and inflamation, and the gargle if the throat is sore Catarrh.— Take the Discovery as directed at stated times, as irre^u anties will not answer, therefore, if you take my medicine expectinr^ to be cured, you must take it at the hour punctual, no matter what exclise you may make ; if you were going to take a journey, you do not expect tJie train or boat to wait for you, if there is any waiting to be done it must be on your part, so it is with my medicine, watch the hour for taking It and be prompt to the minute. Also, dissolve, in water, a little (saltpetre and snuff it up the nostrils once a day, say in the morning. Piles.— Use my medicine as directed, and make an ointment of th" loirowing : Lard one ounce ; Powdered Nut Gall, two drachms ; Sugar ol Lead ami Powdered Onium, of each half a scruple; mix, introduce into tlie bowls, night aud morning, a lump half the size of a nutmeg. Rheumatism. — Use the Discovery and Pills, in Chronic cases use mv Lmiment, if Inflamatoiy, bathe the body in Oil of Whisky. Asthma.— Take the medicine as directed, keep the body well cleansdd by bathing, and clad warm ; burn Saltpetre in your room' before retirin*/ to rest ; be punctual in all your habits, aud avoid all intoxicating liquorfi^ Female Complaixts.— Use my medicine as directed. I have received many letters from mothers enquiring what eiTect the Discovery has on the system during pregnancy, and in reply, say, perfectly safe in alj stages. 1 have seen so many instances of 'the good eflFect of mj medicine on both mother and child that, I am often enthusiastic in it? praise. 1 have often seen children die of canker or other humor, but when the mother took the Discovery during pregnanty, she had a babi tJie picture of health and beauty. And in the change of life my medi- cine will save you and bring you over that trouble safe.

One a pair of in^re for I will.— re ; yet >ver the It frequently happens that accidents and illness occur when there is no opportunity of caUing in the doctor, or it may be desirable to act before his arnval. We therefore give the following hints, which we trust will be found useful : — Scalds and Burns.— If the injured part be Uiatered, do not, on any account, break or open the blister ; but put on and around it a thick coating of flour, or cover it with a linen cloth soaked in a mixture of one- third hme water, and two-thirds hnseed oil. If the skin be broken, apply the lime water and oil in the same manner, or a linen cloth wet in warm brandy. Cut Wcunds.— Bring the separate edges of the wound as exactlv to- gether as possible, and keep their< in that position by strips of sticking- plaster, or of soft linen cloth, which must be wound carefully, but not tightly, round the part. If considerable pain and throbbing arise, remove the dressmg and apply a poultice of bread and water. Chillblains.— Before they are broken, nib them once ortwioe a day with soap Hniment, and wear warm worsted stockings. After they are broken, apply poultices of bread and water, or of linseed meal. FiiACTUREs.— These accidents are often made more serious by injudi- cious awkward movements of the parts before surgical assistance is pro- cured. If either of the bones of the arm be broken, it is best to put the fore-arm at a nght angle with the upper, and support it so by a sUntx that reaches from the elbow to the finger ends. If the injiu-y happen to one of the boiips of the leg, the body should be kept in a horizontal posi- tion, the injured limb being placed as nearly as possible in its natural state in regard to 1 ngth, and being firmly tied to the sound limb, if the person have to be moved. If moving be necessary, it is betier that the patient be carried by hand on a shutter or board, rather than ride in a carnage of any kind. Bleeding from the Nose. --Bathe the nose with cold water, or vinegar and water. Make pressure externally on the side from which the blood 1SSU3S, and if these means fail, introduce into the nostril a pluo- of lint, or Imen rag, soaked in a solution of alum. Adder Bites.— Smear olive oil on, and for some space around the wound. It there is much depression, give a little wine, or weak brandy and water. ^ Sprains. - Keep the joint perfectly at rest. If one of the joints of the ieghe injured let the person keep upon a bed or sofa. Apply warm moist t^annels to the injured parts, or a large ,; ultice of bread and water. If the pain be very considerable, a few leeches should be applied. Above aU else avoid motion of the joint. Colds, with or withoct Fevers.- On going to bed, let the feet and iegs be bathed in a warm batli. D"ink freely of wliey, warm weak tea JO MEDICAL HINTS. I with plenty of milk in it. If there is pain in the head, apply a mustard poultice on the back of the neck until the skin is red and painful.

Feveks generally begin with lang xior of body and mind ; chilliness amounting to shi'7ering,though the skin often at the same time feels hot ; the pulse is quicker than it should be ; respiration hurried or labored ; pains are complained of in various parts, and especially about the head, back and loins ; the appetite falls off, or there is a nausea and vomiting; the mouth is dry, the bowels generally irregular, and the urine small in quantity and deep in color. Fevers generall^ncrease in violence every evening, and this fluctua- tion often takes plajr more than once in the twenty-four hours, the vio- lence of the attacks increasing, and forming what is called a continu ed fever. After some days a crisis takes place ; that is, the symptoms ei- ther take a favorable or unfavorable turn. If tlie increase and remission of symptoms are well marked, and oc- cur once or oftener in the day, the fever is called a remittent. If the fe- ver leaves the patient after some hours duration and returns at stated in- tervals, it is called an intermittent. Fevers are so variously denominated, according to the characteristic symptoms, as Inflammatory, Typhoid, (sometimes called gastric or intes- tinal fever), relapsing fever, and typhus or putrid, nervous fever, etc. , or according to skin appearances connected with them, such as scarlet fe- ver and yellow fever. Apart from the necessity of neutralizing the cause of fovers, efforts must be made to reduce the heat and dryness of the surface of the body to allay the thirst, and to remove the excreta that has accumulated in an unusual degree in the blood and various organs. For these purposes, use tepid ablutions, cold drinks, and The Won- derful Discovery, The Pills remove the excess of excreta, and Correct the constitutional derangements from which all fevers arise. m ,,rj9'-" John, what is a gontkiuan ?" and a liigh shirt collar, sir."

The supposed material cause of this disease is an exceedingly- minute vegetable organism, arising from the surface of the marshes, from the draining of dams and pools, from shallow, stagnant water, and from the cultivation of new soil. This little plant floats in the air, and is carried into the system during the process of respiration. There it genninates and spreads and sooner or later >itiates the blood, and finally generates intermittent or malarial fever. This disease has a regular succession cf definite stages, viz : the cold, the hot, and the sweating stage. The cold stage begins with languor, yawning, and stretching, loss of appetite, a creeping sensation through the limbs, shivering and a sense of debihty. The Hps and finger-ends are blue, and the skin presents a shrunken appearance. Thirst, headache, and depression of spirits, ai'o prominent symptoms. The duration of this stage varies from ten minutes to three iiours. As the hot stage approaches, the shivering ceases, the mouth becomes dry, the tongue furred. Headache is often very violent, and delirium may occm-. The skin is diy and hot, the face flushed, the pulse quick. This stage continr s from ten minutes to sixteen hours. The sweating stage advances gradually, and is attended with IcFS suffering. The fever subsides, the head ceases to ache, the skin cools and the patient goes to sleep, sweating profusely. There is no definitb time assigned the sweating stage. These parnxisms usually occur every alternate day, but the intermission may be longer or shorter. To treat this disease successfuly, medicine must be administered that possesses purgative, tonic, and anti-poisonous properties. The Wonderful Discovery surely and swiftly combat and conquer this diseag°. The Pills completely neutralize the miasma that is the cause of the disease, and carry off the unhealthy material with which the bowels are loaded. They give tone to the system, stimulate the liver, restore the digestive organs to their healthful condition, and radically cure inter- mittent fever. M LIVER COMPLAINT, OR BILLIOUSNESS. The Liver is the largest gland of the body. It is sustained ou the right side, just beneath the ribs, and weighs about four pounds. It secretes a thick, dark, greenish yellow fluid, called hlle. As fast as Mie bile is elaborated it is deposited in the gall-bladder, and passes by a small duct into the intestines. Wlien from any cause this duct becomes clogged, or the liver becomes deranged, tlie bile does not pass into the intestines, but is resorbed by the blood, and is diffused through every part of the system. When the action of the intestines become perverted, or when the hver secretes too much bile, then the bile is diverted from its natiiral course and passes into the stomach. It iw taken up by tlie absorbents and blood-vessels of the stomach, and becomes incorporated into the blood, producmg nausea, headache, giddiufFs, vcniitiiig nnd, otlier symp- toms of poisoning. SucJi affections are called biUiary affections, (x billiousness. % MKUICAL HINTS. 18 gl;/ minute I, from the ad from the I is carried geiminates r generates • succession age. lUg, loss of id a sense presents a spirits, are from ten th becomes d delirium iilse quick.

They stimulate the absorbents to healthy action, and carry off the impurities with which the system is clogged. JAUNDICE. Jaundice is produced by obstinate ague, by catching cold, by the stopping of customary evacuations, or by a severe blow o\er the region ■of I he liver. * It is easily recognized by the yellowness of the whites of the eyes After a few days' discomfort, the roots of the nails, the face, neck, trunk and hmbs, become morbidly discolored. The urine is deep saffron in color, the^bowels constipated, and the appetite irregular. Languor headache, and depression of spirits are more or less prominent. " ' The disease may continue for v/eeks or months, or it may prove fatal as early as the fom-th day. The diet should be light and cooling ; such as ripe fruit and ve<^etabk\s' stewed app'.es, stewed prunes, boiled spinach, chicken broth and stale bread. Drnik butter-milk and cold water. Whatever tends to promote the circulation and cheer the spii-its, has a good effect. The rec-ion over the stomach and hver should be fre(iuently bathed with tepid water and rubbed with a coarse towel until the skin is red. ' The Discovery acts hke magic in jaundice. The Pills restore tlie action of the livgr, promote tho secretion of the bile, and favor its ex- pslsion from tho system. )uquer this he cause of the bowels er, restore cure inter- led oil the !s. p. As fast :iad passes or becomes esorbed by n the liver iiral course 'bents and the blood, ler syrnp- tVctions, or KHEUMATISM. Kheumatism is a painful disease characterized by an inflamed stale of the fibvous tissue. It principally affects the larger joints and places covered by the muscles, as the wrists, elbows, knees, hip- joints, back and loms. '■ '' Rheumatism is seldom, if ever, lutal, except when it attacks some vital origan, as tJie heart, which in severe cases it is very apt to do. Rheuuiatisiu may occur with fever or without it, being in the former case termed acute ; in the latter clironic. Acute rheumatism, or rheumatic fever, is generally occasioned bv exposing the body to cold air immediately after being heated, and coin- mences with chilhness and shivering, which are soon followed by heat restlessness and other feverish symptoms. An acute pain is soon after felt m one or other of the limbs. This quickly increases, and in a short time is accompanied with swelling and great tendernes := -.f one or more ol the large joints, with much constitutional disturbance. Its average duration when unaccompanied with other diseases, is from ten days to six weeks.

The acute form begins with systematic depression, followed by fever • tightness and soreness of the upper and front part of the chest ; cou2h' at hrst short and dry ; later, deeper and looser, with expectoration. ' In cases, the breathing is greatly obstructed, an i the patient can no longer he down, but requires an upright position, and the use of all his muscles, in order to inhale enough air to live. At last he is so exhaust- ed that he ceases to expectorate, and dies of suffocation. The great object of treatment is to reduce and remove the influmma ion. To effect this the Discovery should be given as soon as the disease begins to develop itself. The Pills are anti-inflammatory in action, while at the same time they invigorate the patient. The treatment otherwise should be the application of my liniment to t..'i breast, +he feet bathed in hot water containing two tablespoonfuls of u. stard, ana warm drinks made from slippery-elm bark, barley-water or flax-ssed tea given.

CONSUMPTION. This tenible disease is characterized by a deposit of scrofulous matter in the lungs. Theae deposits gradually enlarge, soften and destroy the substance of the lungs. The diteaee may result from txposure to cold, it may be inherited, it may be gradually developed from living in damp and foul air, from in- sufficient and unwholesome food, from sedentary habits, or from intem- perance of any kind. "Whatever weakens the system, or interferes with the purification of the blood, tends to produce consumption. The earliest symptom is loss of appetite characterized by a dislike of fatty food. The patient becomes languid, and graduall}' loses strength and fleeh. A short, dry, hacking, hollow cough is a prominent feature of the disePL-e. It becomes mors frequent, and is particularly trouble- some at night, accompanied by the expectoration of a clear frothy sub- stance, which afterwards becomes darker, more copious and thicker. The earlier part of the day ia marked by a sreeping chilluess, followed by fever,', and a burning sersation of the hands and feet. After sleeping awhile, a profuse, cold and.clammy perspiration envelopes the whole body. The breathing is hurried, the pulse more frequent, particularly toward evening. The emaciation and weakness go on increasing, pains are felt in the chest, which are increased by coughing. The feet and ankles swell, a diarrhcca sets in, and a heuurrhjige speedily leads to a fatal issue. The treatment of the disease consists in preserving perfect cleanliness, both externally and internally. A morning sponge-bath of cold or tepid water will be useful. Observe good, tegular habits of rising and retiring, eating and drinking, and exercise. Avoid alcohol in every form ; also tea and cofiee. Confine your diet, if possible, to beefsteak, and rich, nutritions food. Follow these simple instructions, which require no doctor, and keep the Discovery always in the house, taking it as often as needed, and nine persons out of every ten can be cured or greatly benefitted. WOMEN'S DISEASES. Maiiy of the miseries of modern womanhood might be prevented were their approach resisted. Any little excitement of an unusual nature disttirbs the balance of the system, the nervous energies are exhausted, and headache and a hundred other disturbances are the result. The Wonderful Discovery will exhibit a decided beneficial effect upon tlie diseases pecuUar to women. Being a purely vegetable preparation, it is a safe remedy for all in-egularities, suppression, ieucorrhoea, prolap- sus, urinary troubles, whether in the old or young, married or single. The Pills and Discovery are an infallable remedy for those many serious complaints which have their origin in derangement of the liver, such as dyspepsia, jaundice, indigestion, costiveness, intermittent and remittent fevers, colic and dysentery, chills, ner-ous and sick-headache, etc., etc. I' Bi"ring convaleseence, nourishing, but not St mnlatmg d et Bhould be given, which with the tonic properties of the Discovery, will give strength to the patient. / PHYSICAL EVILS OF TOBACCO. i.Jvfi^*^"^ contains an essential oil, and nicotine, both of which are iugniy poisonous. py^tem''*'''' "^^^^ ^""^^ smoked, chewed, or snuffed, degenerates the wliole atiln'o^'cU'^aKS ''" '°""'^"^ ''^'"^' ^^^^^"^^ *^" ^^' ''■'''^'^'•■ gelemlT'' ^''^''^^ ^ '^^'''''^ influence on the brain, and nervous system inSabmr' ^^ "^^^^^"^"S the ner^-es, produces morbid excilabilify and \Jfj^T •'"P'"'''' *^^ '®'''^' ""^ smelling and tasting, and often of hear- ^^ Tobacco seriously affects the action of the heart and circulation of the n J''^''/fu "^^""^ ^e^^iy, destroys the complexion and impairs the briUi- ancy or toe eyes.

Satan is vanquished. Nothing now remains but salvation, with eternal glory — eternal glory. " Come to the verandah of a Braminic temple. In the last spasms of Asiatic cholera, Gordon Hall cries, "Glory, glory, glory!" and he " Passed througli glory's morning gate. And walked in Paradise." " Blessed are the dead that die iu the Lord, from henceforth ! ' Blessed are the dead — not survivors, not the most favored of those who remain here, still sinning and repenting, and so imperfectly serving God — but blessed are the dead in Christ who have ceased in sin, and are made perfect in holiness, and have passed into paradise. — Better Land. e now is.. TO A METHODIST. Dear Brother ;— One hundred years ago, the man whom under God we acknowledge our founder, declared, that the purpose for which the Methodists were raised up, was " to spread Scripture Holiness throughout the land," — a purpose as important as ever, both to our own Church and society at large. Never was there a time in which the world stood in more need of the influence of Christianity, nor a time when there were greater opportunities for the Church to show forth the superior power with which she is invested. A very limited knowledge of what is going on around us, will satisfy us that men are becoming convinced that attempt to refoiTQ society, by any other means than the Gospel, is, after all, a species of moral epiricism ; while the sentimentalism of modern infidelity, with its array of liberty and progress is as disgusting as it is weak. Yet there is a lemedy, for the world's diseases. Christi- anity is still its neces,city and its hope, — and there is a liigher type of Christian character available for the times in which we live, and such as the world needs to restore it to its Eden loveliness. Christianity needs to be exliibited in its true character, and allowed to exert its own power. The want is the restoration of the spmtual Life of the Church, producing less of sectarian zeal, less, even, of dogmatic vigor, and more of personal religious hfo, personal piety— personal sanctity; fei-vent in the pew, in the meeting, in the closet ; yet not there alone, but going about as is the person of Christ' " doing good."— bearing around its brow, the halo of Divine Light, undimmed amid the moral miasma and mists of the world, into the workshop, the mart, the exchange, the social assembly." The actual life of the Church, exhibiting the practical real- ity of Christianity— the Christianity of the Bible. In our own branch of God's Zion, there are some things which fill us with hope, large and expectant. From the beginning ii has been its object to impress the ideal of Christianity upon those to whom its min- istry iOuna access, by laboring to "present every man penect in Clu'i'st Jesus."

THE AMERICAN GIRLS MISTAKE. on read A good storj' is told of George MacDonald, now visiting this counti-y, aad a young American woman whom he mot one evening. Wisliing to appear familiar v/ith the works of the celebrated writer, she wrote to a friend in the city that she had •' been invited to meet tlie groat lecturer," and begged her fi'iend to send her his books, whatever they might be. The friend, supposing that by lecturer she meant Professor Tyndall, sent over all that learned man's works. Our beautiful little impromptu blue- stocking did her level best to cram for the occasion, and road so much on light that her little head grew dizzy. She mastered the titles, however, and, feeling well armed for the encounter, attended the entertainment. She had the honor of having Mr. MacDonald presented to her, and the first favorable opportunity she opened on him : "Oh! Mr. MacDonald, I am so delighted to meet you. I have your beautiful books." George MacDonald bowed gracefully. " I do think your 'Fragments' so lovely." George MacDonald stared like a featherless owl. " But the most thrilling of all is the 'Glaciers of the Alps.' " The poor pen-driver could not utter a word. Indeed ho seemed catching his breath, as if he had received a blow below the belt. " And how brilliant you are on 'Light and Soimdl' Do, Mr. Donald, tell me how you produce such beautiful things !" The Englishman came to the conclusion that the little girl was chaffing him, especially as some audible smiles in the immediate neighborhood told him certain people were being amused, so he colored up to the hair, and fled the encounter in such confusion that the company feared he was suffering from a relapse of his late sickness. But we are happy in say- ing it was only a slight attack of cra^ii infantum Americanum, and that he is now convalescent. to be Mac- . THE SAVIOUR'S VOICE. Our Saviour's voice is soft and sweet, When, bending from above. He bids us gather round his feet, And calls us by His love. But while our youthful hearts rejoice That Jesus bids us come ; " Jesus," we cry with pleading voice. " Bring heathen wanderers homo."

He replied, "I prayed and said, 'OLord Jesus Christ It you please, make me a Christian !' and he was so kind that he came down Irom Heaven, ai.d has Hved in my lieart ever since." How simple and how touching. '' Lord Jesus Christ, if "ou please make me a Christ- ian . Can you say tliat you have made a similar appeal in such a spirii as this poor Hindu boy ?

I ■w W The Spirit of Christ does not rest upon him. Ho has not the anointing which teacheth him " all things." He is not of «' qmck .understanding in the fear of the Lord." The hypocrite may be of high intellectual at- tamments-may discourse fluently, and even eloquently on rehgioua truths : yet he has no spiritual discernment. He is bhnd, and cannot see afar off. Jesus Christ says that this spiritual blindness and ignor- Tnce rested on the hypocrites of his day. Matt, xvi, 2, 3. No liypocnte has "evidence of things not seen" by the senses, or by carnal reasoh. O that I may not fail of heaven at last I If I do not love secret prayer, I must be a hypocrite.

Isaiah, having described some temble jud'^ent, says, "The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfu Iness hath sui'- Sed the hypocrites."- (Chap, xxxiii. 14.)

Those who lived in Christ's day strained at a gnat and swallowed a camel, lliey ^ave a tenth of all their garden herbs, and yet they were cruel, unjust Ind faithless.

VARIOUS STATES OF EXPERIENCE. THE HALF- AWAKEN ED. Many who hear the gospel are occasionally affected by it,in a faint and feeble degree. Attracted for a time by its promises, or disturbed by itR appeals, they begin to desire true religion,— but the world and the things of the world, soon again engross their attention and efface all religious impressioi^s. These are represented by the parable of the seed which fell among thorns, Wlieu they have heard they go forth, and the good seed sown^in their hoarts is choked with the cares and riches and plea- Bures of this life, an^l they bring no fruit toparfection. — Luke vii, 14. THE AWAKENED. But sornc, cherishing their desires by ssrious attention and reflection, are gradually enlightened to see themselves and the things off ■firod. *'The grace of God appeareth teaching" them, and gt*ntly opening theit minds , the Lord gives them to see, as they Ciu bear, the wickedness of their hearts and live^. Such are symbolized under the fi^nire of " thf smoking flax." It is " t;ie day of small things." THE PENITENT. Some are led not only to see but to feel their sins as a grievous burden Made sensible of their guilt, they are filled with sorrow thereof, arid greatly hate themselves because they have offinded against God. Over- whelmed with the anguish of a broken heart, they are driven to tlic- verge of despair. Tiiey have no hope from m-ni, none from them8ely,ft=«. non"e from any means. Their only cry is, " Lord, save, or I perish." THfc FORMALIST OR NOMINAL BKLIEVERS. Some coming thus far, proceed no further, but by yielding to sloth, fear, and evil reasoning, or by neglect of prayer, gradually lose thedi convictions and become formal. They put on merely tho outside ot re- ligion, attend the preachings, the prayer-meetings, and the class. Their lives are moral, their conversation modest. They walk circumspectly. They are much given to watch others, and know not that they themselves are miserable, poor, and blind, and naked. These are neithw jjetiitentf nor believers, but merely nominal Christians. THE JUSTIFIED BELIEVER. But others go for.vard. Improving the liijht God has ^iv^n, ho be stows more. They have been awakened, and made sensible of their I'uilt ; they now believe on the Lord Jeaus, and receive a pardon. They have the witness in themselves that they are born of God.

THE BACKSLIDER. Many, once i)ardoned, go back in their hearts. By looking at them- selves, at their graces, and not at Chiisr,— for we do not live by any grace but that of faith — their evidence becomes clouded, and they lose their witness by degrees. They generally remain in this reasoning state for a time, till all the power of godliness is lost, and nothing but its form rtuiains. Then lea-wng the work of the heart, they settle down in a false eecurity, without love to God, without joy in the Lord. Whether these preach, or pray, or converse about the thinj;s of God, their dis- course and manner of action produce no t fltct. It is hard to confess such a state. Reader, is this }our case ] THE SEEKER AFTEK PUIIITY OF HEART. Others go on by faith and prayer, from pardon of sin to entire purity of heart. God first discovtis to them the need of a further work, and then the means to be used. To all who are justified, if diligent and faithful, without taking away the eviderce of pardon, he shows the re- mains of the carnal mind, exciting within them, the deepest contrition of soul. Hh shows them aJso how the blood of Christ was shed to cleanse them from all uncleanliness ; and how this corruption is purged away, not by works, or the virtHo of anj means, but by a simple naked faith, — that being justified by faith, so likewise must the " heart bo purified by faith." They then, more ardently than ever, hunger and thirst after righteousness. They would be Israelites indeed, in whom there is no rjuile. Diligently seeking the Lord, he graciously makes known to them further discoveries of his will. Faithful to his promise, he leads them into all truth, and exhibits the nature of their exalted privilege, even an entire conformity to the divine image. And now, cordially embracing the pi'omise, they boldly declare themselves to le dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God by our Lord Jesus Christ. THE PEKFECT BELIEVElt Receives Christ in the fullness of his gracious word, " Be it unto thee according to thy faith," and he is filled with all righteousness, peace and joy in believing. He now more than ever feels that without Christ he is ignorant, weak and helpless ; but that Christ is made unto him wisdom, righteousness, santification, and redemption. Renouncing all self- dependence, he relies, implicitly on the guidance ot the Holy Spirit — without fear confessing his Lord on every suitable occasion, and laying himself out in all [lossible ways ti> glorify God. Continuing steadfastly to trust in the all-cleansing bhiod, the inclination to sin is done away, and with his blesstd Lord he can humbly, yet boldly fay, " The prince of this world cometh, but hath nothing in me."

But we rejoice in walking according to the covenant of grace in the holy love and happy obedience.

He hath " girded us with strength unto the war," and we gladly " fight the good fight of faith. " We rejoice, through Him who liveth in our hearts by faith, to " lay hold of eternal life." This is our rejoicing, that as our " Father worketh hitherto," so (not by our own might or wisdom, but through the power of His Spirit, freely given to Christ Jesus) we also work the works of God. And may he work in us whatsoever is well- ploasing in his sight ! To whom be the praise for ever and ever ! "WE SEE BUT IN PART." A traveller, as he passed through a Ifir.i,'^ and thick wooil, saw a part of a huge oak, which appeared misshapen, and also seemed to spoil the scenery. " If," said he, " I was the owner of this forest, I would cut down that tree." But when he had ascended the hill, and taken a full view of the forest, the same tree appeared the iv.ost beautiful of the whole landscape. " How erroneously," said he, " I have judged while I saw onlj' a part." " This plain tale," says Dr. Orlin, " illustrates the plane of God. — We now see but in part. The full view, the harmony and proportion of things, are all necessary to clear up our judgment." DEATH-BED EVIDENCE! liY THK REV. J. KYLE, B. A., RECTOR OP HELMIMOHA.M, SUFFOLK. Reader,— I wish to say a few words to you about a very painful subject — I mean the subject of dcath-hcd evidence. I want to warn you against the common idea that people may go on in sinful, worldly ways, and yet be saved without any trouble at last. It is sad to hear how people sometimes talk about death-bed evidences. It is perfectly fearful to observe how little satisfies some persons when a neighbor dies, and how easily they persuade themselves that he is gone to heaven. IVfany will toll yon when their relation is dead and, gone, that "he made such a beautiful prayer one day— or that he talked so well — or that he was so sorry lor his old ways, ami intended to live differently if MISCELLANEOUS. 41 'lie he got better— or that he craved nothinor in this world— or that he liked people to read to him, and pray with him."

PATIENCE. The members of the New-Testament Church are patient. Ti'ey en- dure with calmness and composure tht various ills of life. '-"0, the great head of the Church may be appealed to as the mt ' In- guished of all examples. Patience seemed personified in him di ...g all his earthly ministry. How patiently did he endure the coutradiction of sinners against himself! What patience in the garden— before the high priest— in the presence of Pilate— under mockery, insult, reproach and scorn! Peter's sword was drawn ; but it must return to its scabbard. The twelve legions of angels were ready, but they are not called for. In his infinite patience, ho .ascended the cross, and endured its agonies and bitter death. His true members will imitate liiia lioio, and in this important aspect they will be partakers of the Divhie nature. Having troubles and dis- tress, their effect will not be to exasperate— no^ to produce murmunngs against the Divine administration, but their tril .ation worketh patience. With patience they will brin? forth fruit, and wait for that which they see not as yet. It is not for them to cast stway their confidence ; but to be patient, that after they have done the will of God, they may receive the promise. Hence, the Christian race they run with patience. They are patient unto the coming of the Lord; and as the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it until he receive the early and the latter rain, so the genuire church- members toil without yielding to weariness or fretfulness, not doubting that, in due tunc, they shall reap if they faint not. Very pleasant are the inspired words that are spoken of the patient ones. They are ac- counted happy who endure ; and the patient continuance in well-doing is to be crowned with eternal life. This is written as the great result ot the " patience of the saints." They seek, then, the grace that will enable them to "endure all things." Then- hearts are estabhshed. As to injurious treatment, their minds ar3 made up that they will, God helping them, never be moved at what- ever provocation. If buffeted even for doing well, they will take it patiently. In respect to suffering affliction, they have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lard, and they are resolv- ed that they will endure to the last. As to delays, they have settled it that they will labor, and leave all results to be developed in God s own good time. With hearts fimi, and voices spirited and glad, they smg :— "Let U3, then, be up and doing. With a heart for any fate ; Still achieving — still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait."

Much advantage will also be derived from having the head occasionally shampooed. Instances might he cited in which the hair has been reajored by this process, when baldness has appeared inevitable ; all that is required to insure success to almost every case, is perseverance and a strict attention to temperate diet. Paktial Baldness.— An affliction almost as distressing as total bald- ness occurs when the hair falls off suddenly in placeB, leaving large Avhite patches of scalp exposed, and presenting (especially when the patches are niimerous) a most unpleasant appearance. This disfigure- ment (often mistaken for ringworm) arises not from a skin disease, but from a disordered state of the nerves. It is necessary to follow closely our previous instructions, taking at the same time a gentle tonic. The bald places might also bo frequently rubbed with a tooth-brush, dipped in a mixture of equal parts of distilled vinegar and Eau de Cologne. ON LEARNING ALL YOU CAN. When you were a little baby you knew nothing. You are now learning to read. There are many things which you have yet to learn. You often ask your parents about what you see or hear, and you are very well pleased when they tell you something which you did not know before. Your parents cannot always be talking with you, as uiey must attend to other things, so they send you to school that you may be taught to read and know. Regard what your Teacher says. When you talk to a boy or girl, you do not like them to turn their backs, and not hear you. So you must hear your teacher, when he talks to you. Now mind ; there are so many nice things in tiie Bible and other good books, and you will be so glad when you can read them, that you must lose no time, but learn as fast as you can. And then I hope you will gi'ow up to be wise and good, and happy ; and all good peopln will love you. — Little Child's Mcujazinc. It seems a hard and cruel thing— and it is a hard and cruel thing— to make the affections of a child its means of punishment for slight juvenile offences. A friend relates the following as evidence in point : A little girl who, although an affectionate iifctle creature as ever lived, was very volatile and hght-hearted, and could not always remember to mind her mother. At the close of a day, in the early part of the present winter, she had, in some trifling command, disobej'ed her mother — going into the ctreet to play with one of her little companions ; when she came in, and was prepared to go to bed. she came to her mother for her nightly kiss. " I can not kiss you to-night, Mary," ."^aid the mother ; " you have been a verj-^ na\ii;hty little girl, and have disobeyed me. I can not. kiss you to-night."'

I can conceive of uo reason why he should, but of ten reasons why he sliould not. 1. It is mean. A man of high moral standing would almost as soon steal a sheep as swear. 2. It is vulgar ; altogether too mean for a decent man. y. It is cowardly; implying a fear either of not being beheved or obeyed. 4. It is ungentlemanly. A gentleman, according to Webster, is a genteel man — well bred — refined. Such a one will no more swear, than go into the streets to throw mud with a clod-hopper. 5. It is indecent; offensive to delicacy, and extremely unfit for liuman ears. G. It is foolish. Want of decency is want of sense. 7. It is abusive. To the mind that conceives the oath, to the tongue that utters it, and to the person at whom it is aimed. 8. It is venomous, showing a man's heart to be a nest of vipers, and every time he swears one of them sticks out his head. 8. It is contemptible, forfeiting the respect of all the wise and the good. % MISOELI-ANEOUS. 47 ' 10.
