Pure and uudefiled religion before God ami the Father, is, as I understand it, an active (not a dormant) principle. I do not undertake to direct any more iu regard to my children. I leave that work entirely to their excellent mother, from whom I have just parted. I send you my salutation with my own hand. Remember me to all your and my dear friends. Your friend, .JOHN" BROWN.
