Spiritual Heroism. On the day of the battle of Bunker's Hill a vankee captain, who considered "discretion the better part of valour" chose

After a few saluations our quondam captain observes, "since we last saw each, other I have become an altered man. I now fight with spiritual weapons against the powers of darkness." Indeed V replies the vete an, k,l am surprised that a man who is afraid of gunpowder should dare to fight the We desire, we pursue, wc obtain, we are satiated, we desire something else and begin a new pursuit. However lich or powerful a man may be, says Lord Lyttleton, it is the height ol tolly to make personal enemies from any. but particularly personal motives ; for one unguard

ed moment mav yield vou to the revenge of the most despicable and malicious villain a mong the vast assurtmeut that besets mankind. It is a common fault to be never satisfied with our fortune, nor dissatisfied with our understanding )e not very anxious to make a great fo tune, nor set your heart upon a country house and retirement. Uepentance is not so much remorse for what we have done, as the fear of consequences.
