REPENTANCE A DATLY DUTY. It Cannot Be Bone. All at Once, but. Must Be Constant. It was Dr. Isaac Watts who was accustomed before closing his eyes in sleep at night to review carefully all the events of the day and especially the temper of mind with .which he had met them, in order to ascertain just wherein he had failed in the, field of Christian duty. He then repented sincerely over any element of discovered wrongdoing, and resolved that he would, if possible, avoid a repetition of his sins and follies on the morrow. This was a wise and wholesome practice. It involved the true method of progress—of all progress, intellectual aa well as moral. To discern our mistakes in science, our errors in ethics, onr delusions of conscience, our conclusions, from false premises, our frailties of disposition, ony hastiness of speech, our ill, founded suspicions of evil in others, our wastefulness of time and golden opportunity, our lack of liberality in giving to good causes, and of disinterested love generally, our thoughtfulness of God and his precepts, ony ingratitude and religions indifference—-to do these things is the first and necessary step in the path of reformation. To reinedy a defect it is above all things essential to know it. From this knowledge ought to follow sincere contrition and immediate efforts to turn, away from the transgression. Tims David lived in sin of the worst description without remorse or apparent concern, until Nathan went to him with a deeply instructive parable which he fearlessly applied, spying, “Thou art the maul” Then the king’s eyes were opened, and he saw and felt hjs appalling crime and guilt. This was preparatory to .his agonizing tears of repentence and strong cries unto God for forgiveness, as recorded in the 51st Psalm. Nor was this all; David, like Watts, doubtless found something in his life every day demanding sorrow and reformation; in other words, repentance. His. penitential psalms prove this, for they are many. The same was true of Peter. He maty have thought when Christ first called him that he had turned frpm evil doing, or repented once for all. But, alas! he found to his surprise and bitter grief that he could still be guilty of awful sin. His thrice denial, and accompanied .with shocking profanity, nearly crushed the life out of him; but he carne to himself again under the Ipok of Jesus, mingled as it was with reproachfulness and still inexpressible loveand tenderness. Peter’s case, indeed, is typical in this respect—that he had occasion to repeat with profounder feelings, of sadness and contrition after, he had long been a Christian than during his earlier experiences. Many, a noble, and externally stainless saint has had precisely such experiences. It was a favorite image with-Jonathan Edwards, who had; often been called the holiest man yet produced iq America; that a cambric handkerchief in proportion to its perfect whiteness and purity would show ihe slightest stain, and that in like manner, in proportion as the soul grew into the moral beauty resembling; Christ, it would become conscious of the faintest taint of sin and be,filled with penitential sorrow over it. One can therefore, no more do all his work of repenting at once than a gardener can complete the task of pulling up the weeds from his beds of vegetables in a single day. If ; he free his garden from weeds one day, tftat will not prevent their - sprouting up. again on the nexf. As long, as his plants-live and thrive the task of protecting them from being choked and made fruitless by noxious growths must be repeated. Nor is it otherwise with Christian graces. They must be guarded against evil qualities in the soul if they are to mount upward into beauty, and strength. But the possessor of these graces will .be obliged to stand on guard not cq one day only, but on every day. His repentence will increase, not decrease, as he marches hpavonward. But it will h<J, mingled .also with an even ,higher..appreciation,and with unspeakable love and gratitude for the infinite mercy that forgives with a forgiveness so great that it alone exceeds the sum of our transgressions.—Christian at Work,, Great Things and Little Things. It is a full century since John Newton 1 put on record thq pithy sentiment that “many Christians who bear the loss of a child or, the destruction of all their property-with the. most heroic Christian fortitude, are entirely vanouished and overcome by,the breaking of a dish or the blunders of a servant and show so . unchristian a spirit that we cannot but wonder at them.” Yet the remark is still as true as when first uttered. The reason is, that a serious evil at once stirs the soul to consider iba privilege and its duty, but a slight one catches it unawares and so leads to a lamentable display of temper. Happy they who in all tbipgs, great or small; see the hand of God and govern themselves accordingly. —Christian Intelligencer. Brief TruthsI do not find where Jesus was ever bidden to a feast and refused. If he ate j with sinners he converted them; with the poor, he fed them; with the rich in substance, ho made them richer in grace. —Hall. Christian perfection in outward conduct consists not in doing extraordinary things, but in doing ordinary things extraordinarily well. —Port Royal.

Honor. Men are constantly seeking honor from their felloes. Yet how much more to he prized is that which God can bestow. “Them that honor me,” saith the Lord, “I will honor.” The man who seeks to do that which is acceptable to God can alohe have peace in his soul, and he has a freedom of action never known by those whose chief concern is to obtain the praise of Ipauirer.

It is an able document and a true exponent of*Republican principles. Gards are out announcing the wed-*, ding of Elmer Trotter and Miss Mattie Brannen, which takes place at the M.
