Net easily daunted by obstacles »r delay, he pressed forward with calm energy and a reso¬ lute fixedness of purpose. Working through faitb in the promiece of God, he ever looked up- • ward and onwaid to the day of their fulfilment. ! Though often painrd at heart by the reluctance with which the claims of missions were inet or even admitted to be binding upon Chrietinne, yet ho never upbraided men for their apathy or their doll perceptions of scripture truth. lie knew the reason, and prayed for them, that God would send Ilis spirit to open their eyes and touch their hearts into a willing obedience to all the commandments *f Christ. Hie hopefulness and untiring perseverence teaches a striking leeson to those who grow weary because success appears to be doubtful. One who felt thus discouraged said to a mission¬ ary “even my letters are left unanswered.’’ “ This should not deter you from effort,” was the reply, “ Mr. Taylor told me if he only re¬ ceived one answer out of twenty letters written in behalf of missions it waff ns much- as he ex¬ pected."’ When ho knew that packages of the ЦоЦ?.-Ахд ST*m" tnined by the testimony of all others familiar with the facts, when I attributo tho revivals which have so frequently occurrcd.in Brown University to the Bible class of I)r. Woylond and the study of Butler’s Analogy. • It was en of ns male and feci that they were under the-protce- tion of tho law of God. While the Sabbath- truce lasted we felt that wc and they were crea¬ tures of tho same kind and bcncGccnt Being, and that His саго was over all His works. Wc thus learned feelings of pity, sympathy, and kindness for our humbler follow-creatures, and at the same time reverence and gratitude for our heavenly Father. Tho Sabbath day, since made delightful by its solemn assemblies and joyous worship, is sweeter to us from the recollection of its calm, peaceful hours, in a Kentucky forest. Were there no 11 church-going bell/’ ond no. theevi7- rart'tiujr'for "rrligiofiH IrikfFuctioa, theTiabtiatif would still be a blessing to man. Its silent meditations, its rest, its communings with na¬ ture, are needed to refresh our souls and take away from us the hardness and selfishness of life. Wo feel that we are happier and better for the IcseonR of our first Sunday school. WISE AND GENEROUS. The Christian Era, of Boston, quotes an ex¬ fact when I was there, as a etu- tract from a letter from Ilogie, speaking of tho dent, that such revivals usually originated in the junior class in its second term, while study- “ evangelization of that city as a work of stu¬ pendous magnitude and difficulty and wonder¬ ing Butler’s Analogy, and from it spread to t he I *n3 ,liat *be great denominations of Protestant other classes.” We commend these words free schools, to Sunday-school teachers, and especially to parents. The fear of making the Word of God distasteful to their children deters many parents from requiring them to read it. They leave this important matter entirely to tlioir choice at an ago when they cannot know what is best for themselves.' To compel chil¬ dren to commit Bible verses ns n, punishment might do harm ; but toexcicise our, authority in requiring them to real the Scriptures as a duly, and with a view to their improvement, is a dif- ; | Britian and America do not put forth their tq the managers of j strength in Home, and then says editorially : - * • • - ' “ Why should not Northern Baptists aid our Southern brethren in doing' a pail of -this great work?

Pour the money into the treasury of the South¬ ern Baptiste and let them do the work. No better method of uniling our two sections can be found than that, of joining them in work for Christ. Give the' work to Southern Baptists aDd supply them with funds, and, our word lor it,. cautious, intelligent and aggressive mission¬ aries will bo supplied. There will be but little friction.

"Some churcbe of their distribution, and that in others the majority .of their members neglected to read them when distributed, he was not discouraged, nor was liis own faith lessened in this instru¬ mentality or its’ value to those who sought for information in the causes it represented. The want of interest shown by others was but tho natural and expected result of neglected Infor¬ mation on those subjects. Yet ho continued to on. To tho last, when prostrated by siek- ho dictated the editorials of his paper, and in one of his last efforts to врсак he asked “ if the proof-sheet of "the Jouenxi. was ready.” Te those who believe that Christian women have a mission to the women, who can only hear of Christ through the teachings of their own sex, it is encouraging to know tho interest felt in thia cause by our venerated Taylor. But this might have been anticipated by those acquaint¬ ed with the code of inquiries addressed to the newly-nppointed missionaries to Shanghai in 184“. In two of these we find an intense con¬ sciousness of tlio importacco that the women of China ehould bo reached by the Gospel. After asking about schools for girls he inquires, “ Will you bo able to arrange onr mission fur exerting an influence on females iri any way ? ” This shows that in his earnest convictions of a great truth'be antedated the work of the com¬ ing years in foreseeing its need. A missionary, after nearly thirty years work in India, now cays: ’*Tho conversion of one woman is worth that of two men in its relations to the progrees of the Gospel. The man often fails to bring hie household under Christian teaching, and his character Buffers from home influence. Tho wife iu almoet sure to induce her husband and family to listen to tho truth.” Mr. Taylor, a few months before liis death, writes : “I hope that woman’s mission in tho gTeat work of sending the Word of Life to those of her own sox in heathen lands will bo so uuV- derstood as to draw in large resourocs and great¬ ly to increaso tho momentum of influcnco for the conversion of the world* It will difficult work, wieely to select euitablo ‘ ladies for missionary service, and position one which will promise useful career.

Tho membership of the Association is 2,088, being a net gain of. 27G.or fourteen and a half per cent, on last year’s report. This is q/very gratifying exhibit.

Ocr early ‘^outh was epcst iu the West, ond our bouse, oh one side at least, was skirted by the primeval forest. When we first moved to the place the wolves, iu tho fall of the year, could Bomctimcs be heard walking in the dry leaves, ond their dreary howl often echoed among tho distant hills. There was no church near", and tho only preacher wc eversaw was an occasional Slethodiet circuit rider, who stopped with ue in going to ond from his widely- separated appointments. In this ont-of-the-wny placo our family, al¬ though denied the privilege of public worship, remembered the Sabbath day. But after 'a the Bible in the morning, 11 we free tar tho rest of the day to stroll through field or woods, according to onr fancy. There was a certain wcod/ hillside where we spent many Sabbath hours. Tho top of the hill was crowned with tall hickory trees, which, when the mite were ripe, wore a favorite resort for squirrels. How often did wo watch them while they were laying in tlioir winter supplies. They would fun up tho rough sides of the trees, pause, listen, shako their busby tails, give their hoarse bark, and then trip on until they reached tho highest limbs. There is a shake, a rattling of the nuts.on tho ground, and down again сото tho squirrels and boar off tho fruit to their gar¬ ner in ft hollow oak near by. Afl wo upon them it almost repented us that the week wo had made war with riflo or shot¬ gun on tho innocent, happy creatures. In tho fearlessness with which vthey- engaged in their work they scorned to know that they were safe iu the sacrcducss of the day. It was, perhaps, a mere loncy, but it really secured that tbe doer were less fearful on Sun¬ day than on any other day. Tfo oan recall even now bow quietly and securely they grazed in field or moved iu forest when tho light of a sun shone upon them. Tho birds того sweetly,- seemingly from joy¬ ous and grateful hcarte.

Tho limestone creek along, we sometimes strayed, and in we waded with Splashing feet, and glided on with a softer, rythmic flow, than on ordinorydays. The fearlessly to take an ant or a crumb о dropped into tho water for thorn, or in tho clear depths with a kind of Bab- state and peace.

Ho AS OTHERS SEE US. "Л learned friend of ours who heard Hugh StoweB Brown in Richmond, thought his lec¬ tures the best bo hod hoard for years. Mr. Brown impressed him as a man of large , keen observation, and genial humor. A in tho Christian Era lots us in |Ь!я country врр«ч»го<1 to the . He did not foil to eee that oui men have a wonderfully good opinion of achievements in the Sunday-school work. He saye : “ In the assurance of faith that their particular Sunday-school is ahead of nil others in creation, I can certainly say the American schools are in advance of our own ; but in in¬ tellectual nnd spiritual advancement Г saw no¬ thing superior to what wo have in England.” Mr. Brown thinks young American ministers have “ a weakness for D. D.’s, nnd a tendency to bo sentimental, and pretty, and eloquent in their preaching.” He hits the alternate read¬ ing of tbe Scriptures— tho minister reading one verse and tho congregation the next. He said to a preacher who askod him how he liked it, ‘i 1 think" you hod bettor prevail on your con¬ gregation to enter into co-partnership with. the choir rather than with yourself in tho service.” This “ verso" about ” plan lias never been adopt¬ ed in our southern pulpits ; but some of our Sunday-school superintendents practise it. It always seemed to us a faint echo of the Episco¬ pal service, and wc never could be very hearty in its uso. _ _ BOOK NOTICES. Tho Anrricar,' /topayr tear Book for 1ST3 is a valuable publication.

SPURGEON ON THE ESTABLISHMENT. In his sermon on January 26th Mr. Spurgeon spoke with tremendous force in regard to the infamous and intolerable burden imposed by the Anglican Establishment. Пс said : It is not possible for us to cease from our ef¬ forts to obtain our deliverance frem tho degra¬ ding yoke which now burdens us. Wo nro told that wo enjoy toleration . The very word is in¬ sult. Wlmt would the members ot thodominant sect think if wo talked of tolerating then ? We shall never he satisfied until all religious com¬ munities stand upon unequal footing before the. law. Ciesar has no right to demand of us that v« shall support tlie-rsligren or the superstition which ho choosea to select. An established, church is a spiritual tyranny. We wear no chains upon our wrists ; hut on our spirits our oppressors have thrust fetters which gall us worse than bande of steel. Wo arc compelled, ns a part of tho nation, to support a church whose business it is to pull down that which with prayers nnd tears we live to build up, ond would even die to maintain. As 1’rotest.int Disecntcis, wo SCO tho truths wo preach aeaailod by nn army of Anglican Papists, whom wc are compc’lcdjo support that tksy may oppose our most cherished designs. Popery is this day in¬ stalled nnd endowed among ue, and wo are com¬ pelled to acknowledge its" myrmidons as the clergy of onr own national church- That which our fathers died to "overthrow 'we arc compelled to support. Wo cannot help being indignant ; wc should bo less than men af our blood did not . boil within us at such injustice. If men want Popery: or any other form of error, let them pay for it themselves, and call it their own ; hut to foiet their superstition on ua.as a part of tho na¬ tion is an oppression against which wo. appeal to tho Judge of all the earth. Men cannot long bear to be saddled with tho maintenance of a superstition which they abhor; loaet of all,- can tho deseendanta of the Ironsides endure it, who, though they have laid aside all carnal weapons, . cannot quito forget the fields on which their r fathers mado tho Cavaliers feel tho weight of ■ their right arms. The insult to our consciences which is embodied in the present Church and - State is a daily provocation to us .as men and ■ Christians. Of the present unrighteous domi¬ nation, I would say, Down with it, down with it, all ye who have a spark of justice left in your souls 1 As for us, we will never rest till wen re *. free from this excnseless injustice, and free we-’» 1 will be, as sure as God, tho God of righteous- : , j ness, yet lives. -,v Thereupon Rev.

CONSCIENCE. I remember reading, vhen a very little boy, about a child *ho woe in the habit of going to an upper room or loft where there wae a store of apples. Slio went from time to time to etcal the fruit, but »lie met with eometbing that greatly troubled her. There happened to have been placed in that etorcrcom on old oil-palntiDg. It was a largo face, the еуез of which, go to what part of the room the little girl might, Bccmsd'tO, follow her; and they appeared to ho saying to her, oa ehe Etoopcd down to take up the applce. ••ЛЬ I I ECO you.
