more highly appreciated. Let us biiefly mention some of them. 1. It is a most important means of promoting devotional feelings in the worship of God; and it is far more powerful in ils effects upon those w ho join in it, than upon those who merely listen. It is to be hoped that the time is coming when none, ho do not labor under peculiar incapabilities, will consent to be excluded from this delightful part of divine service, or feel themselves excused from joining in the praises of their Creator. 2. Music is, in itself, a source of the j purest enjoyment. Jt tnav occupy the I

vacant hours, express innocently and hap. pily the lively feelings of childhood and youth, and affords rest and refreshment to the mind wearied with the cares and labors of life. The gladness of the heart s calmed, but deepened by its power; and sorrow al being expressed in song. 3. It promote? health. As a mere ex ercise, it is considered by many physicians as a most valuable means of strengthening the lungs; but tranquility of mind is of more value in restoring the bodily pow ers than mere muscular exertion. Jow soon does siiong mental agitation derange every thing in the system? Grief refuses food; tenor becomes faint and pale; and long continued anxiety will bring the stionge't to the grave. Music reverses these eflecfs, and while it calms the mind, invigorates the body . 4. Its influence is favorable upon the mental powers. From its very nature it cultivates the habits of order and union. All must follow a precise rule, and act together in obedience to a leader; and the habit thus acquired in one pui suit, necessarily has its influence in others. 5. It improes the heart. No one will question its power to soften the character and elevate the feelings. It dive its, too, ie young Irom amusements of a nuestionatde character, and it is sai l a lelormit'n has m more than one village or disthcr, and j more obedient to their teachers. I he full influence of hiuhc is only felt where it is combined with appropi i ate words, and is employed in fixing useful instruction in the mind and devotional feel - - ings in the heart.

This fact itself might be deemed an empty annunciation, were il not in my power to add the gratifying result, that no diminution of strength or capacity of the men to perform their labor has been at any time experienced; nor has any sickness at all supervened. At no stage of the journey have the men who were originally engaged with a distinct understanding en this point, asked for or required any liquor, or evinced any murmuring that it had been excluded from the supplies. Uut even, when the labor was most severe, on portages, in moras ses, or in crossing high lands, they have evinced a readiness, a cheerfulneg, and an ability for sustaining continued fatigue, w hich has often been the subject of remark and commendation by the parly. Often when the days woik was done, when they had labored hard at Ihe paddle or carrying strap, and sometimes when even a portion of the night had been added to it, they showed a joyful spint in the encampment. And they Ire quently went to gather wood, after such fatigues, for eupplving the night fires, with the boatman's song. Another fact may, with equal pleasure, be recorded, and it seems intimately connected, in its influence vith the preceeding. No Sabbath day was employed in the travelling. It was laid down as a principle, to rest on that day, and whenever it overtook u, whether on the land or on the water, the men knew that their laborwould cease, and that the day would be given them for rest. Such of them as felt the inclination, had th further privilege ot heating a poitim of the scriphiicj read, or expounded, or unilinir in other devotional rites.

A young gentleman, 'luring the Bazaar, went into the Lyceum, Iond street, and presented a lady, at one ol the stalls with a sovereign, desiiing her to give him any thing t-he thought proper in return. The lady immediately handed him a small piece of paper, and value of the money. His curiosity induced him to open it, when to his astonishment and delight, he found it to contain these words, "A cure for love." Alter puzzling his braius a considerable time as to what the cure could be, he discovered and lifted up the ingenious artificial veil, and his eye was immediately riveted by the magic word "Mutiimony.' The scabbed sheep mars a zi-hole flock. This proverb is applied either to such persons who, being vicious themselves, labor to debauch those with whom they converse; or to such, who not careful enough in preserving their own virtue, expose themselves to the contagion of vice, by associating with those who are vicious; it , ".'V b ' ,t being like an infectious di.temper and therefore ought to be carelully and in - dustnously avoided.
