In the parishes bordering on Russia, where nearly every man was guilty of smuggling, hundreds of persons refunded the duties of which they had defrauded the government. Many sold their property to obtain the money, and others, who could not- raise the sum at once, discharged the debt by instalments. The perplex* ed officers of customs luid the matter before the king, who decided that the pro* cecds should be distributed among the poor. The average number of lawsuits has decreased from 5800 to three, four and six.

Who arc directly or indirectly responsible ? And what is the Instances of " sudden conversions" arc not unfrequent, and the " divine impulse" has been so irresistibly felt in the midst of secular arrangements or in the streets, as to lead the people to fall on their knees and cry for mercy. In other instances, persons have been compelled to retire from parties, overcome wi'h emotion and penitential tears which contrasted strangely with their splendid dresses and jewels'— No such revival has ever before been known in Sweden. It may be said that there is scarcely a church or congregation there which has not felt its power—scarcely a community to be found which has not contributed to swell the numher tf those who are hoping in Christ. An awakening so wonderful as this may well cause Christian's there to rejoice and take courage, and to continue with increased faith in their labors for the perishing.

Oittoe iu the Court House, Wilkes- Aiirro  Peace at IIome —It is just as possible to keep a calm house as a clean house, a cheerful house, an orderly bouse, ts a furnished house, if the heads set themselves to do it. Where is the difficulty of consulting each other's weakness as well as each other s wants ?—each other's temper, as well as each other's health ?—each' other's comfort as well as each .other's character ? Oh! it is by leaving the peace df borne to chance, instead of pursuing it as a system that so many bouses are uiihappy. It deserves notice that almost every one can be eourttous, and forbearing, and patient, in a neighbor's house. If anything go wrong, it is made the best of, and not the worst; even efforts are made to excuso it, and to show that it is not felt, or if felt it is attributed to accident, not design; and this is not only easy, but natural in the houso of a f iend. We will not, therefore, believe that what is so natural in tlio house of another, is impossible at home; but maintain without fear that all the courtesies of social life may be n.aintaincd in domestic society. A husband as willing to be pleased at home, and as anxious to please as in his neighbor's house ; a wife as intent to making things comfortable eycry day to her family, as on set days to her guests, could not fail to make their own home happy- Fuller.
