And tq say homo througii the swamp to avoid being seen, the truth, the young man was aa learned as As the congregation retired, the three aistera, eight years of laborious study in the highest who were almost dissolving with eagerneas to Bchools could raake him. In Hebrew he was know how the sermou was received, placed sufficiently skilled to have held a corrfspnu- themselvea near different groups for that pur- dence, on small thiucs, with Jonr.than Bwn pose. Such'curious listeners may sometimes Uzziel himself: and as to Hebrew roots, he ¦ be gratified with what they hear, but they could dig them out wilh aa much facility as ate as ofteu disappointed.

One wanted to know who he was at least a alave, liaving toiled for it ' that Ike Horn was that had been quoted, aud with suoh recompense as it capriciously be¬ stows. In Latin, he was so perfectly at home, that before he left college it began to be whispered about that he must havo found some new theory-—some labor-saving mt^thod for outstripping all his compeers. But with all thia immense learning, Job was only a scholar, and a scholar without judgment, worse fitted for lhe duties and struggles o^ life thau when he left the plow. His educa¬ ted mind had about it the slxff and inflexible aspect of a full length Egyptian portrait. He had nothing of tbe easy carriage and appro¬ priate style of a souud judgment, whichi after all. cijea to learning its full value and weight. Iu a word, he went forth from col lege into the world like a man who lands from a wreck on an uuiuhahLted isle, with a ship load of iron rails and a locomotive—val¬ uable enougb elsewhere, but to him of no earthly use. , As he was now a clergyman lu full orders, some of his frieuds thoaght it best that he should marry a wife before he undertook the care of a parish, as it would save him all the inconvenience ofa future courtship, with the time it would necessarily take from parish duty. It would also prevent the idle and ill- natured gossip which is apt to arise among parishoners when it is known that their pastor is ou the by-path tbat leads to matri¬ mony. No man was more clearly of thia opinion than old Jacob Thornhedge, whose daughter, Angelina, was raidly advancing to¬ ward a doubtful age, and who had rejected suitor after suitor, until young gentlemen began to treat her with the civility due to ladies much older than themselves The old mau sought an opportunity, and witii aingu¬ lar candor cave Job liis opinion and advice, and added, that as a clergyman, he should be careful to select a wife whose years and gravity of manuers would become hitn iu his sacred character. Somethiug of this world's goods, alao, he thought, would 2.tI come amiss as an appendage to her other qnalifica" tions. Now it was well-known that Angelina had of late become s'-rious and thoughtful, aud it was just aa well-known that whoever gained her hand would gain with it a snug little farm worth about $6000. I need no' tell the rest. In a short lime, Angelina Thornhedge was the wife of the Rev. .Tob Shaddaky. Having thus gotten a helpmate in every re¬ spect fully worthy of him, and a little over, he now began to look round for a church.— But he soon found that it was much easier to get a wife tban to make her the mistress of a parsonage. Many churches were vacant, and mauy hungry sheep, in different folds, had for a long time been feeding on such occa¬ sional supplies of spiritual fodder as had been brought to them by roving shepperds.

But lest I should weary the reader' r'tience by carrying these reflections toatedi-'us lengih, I will here drop them, and get at ouce to the story. In an interior couuty iu the great State of New York, thnre lived and flourished a fami¬ ly bearing a name neither common nor eupho¬ nious. Adouijah Shaddaky was the male head df the bouse, and Patience, his wife, was a helpmate, exactly suitable in every respect. Adouijah was ignorant of letters, and his wife was not more knowing thau himself. They were both religious, industrious and frugal. The heaviest wheat covered their field.s, the flnest apples grew in their orchards, aud the fattest mntiou grazed the rich pasture of their meadow lands. In process of time this worthy couple bad five sons aud three daugh¬ ters. Job Shaddaky was the youngest, and ofcourse the favorite child of his parents.— As his four lirothers came of age, they marri¬ ed and settled on farms, the jiifts oftheir fath¬ er. Job was inteuded for higher things. As ao literary light had ever been set on a can¬ dlestick to give light to the house of Shadda¬ ky, it had loug heeu tbe cherished purpose of both parents to bestow that sbiuing dia¬ tinction ou him. He was first to be made a Boholar, then a clergyman. Accordingly, with the full benefit of ail the learning he had received iu the VaUey school-bouse, he was sent to college al eighteen. At twenty- one he was reguarly entered as a student of theology, in the ancient and renowned theo¬ logical seminary of . At twenty-six he was ordained and made a minister, according lo the forms of the church of which all his father's family were members. Thns w:is Job's literary and ilivAiity education com¬ pleted, aud the wishes i f his fond parents realised in the fact, that their son waa now lo be known and respected aa the Eev. Job Shad¬ daky. ¦ He relumed to his lather's house a prodi¬ gy, snch as the only educated member of a family always appears to lhe rest. He was the joy of his parents, and admiration of his brothers, and the pride of his sisters. They were all ignorant of the extent ofhis acquire- xnents, for knowledge, like the unfatbomed depth of the sea, is measured only by itself. As lie sat before the chimney fire, sileutly re¬ viewing his studies, or, lost iu profound med¬ itation on the dinuer that tumbled about in the Jiuge iron pot, his sisters would cast ctirious glances at him, and wonder meanwhile where his great thoaghts were atraying. His moth¬ er, who sat working at the spinning-wheel) was tempted, over and over again, to ask him that infidel question, though not in an infidel Bpirit, where Cain got his wife. And his father aotnally did venture to put the ques¬ tion by what myterioua process of nature Ja¬ oob got auch a large flock of ring-streaked cattle^' Job answered that "whether the aff^r waa fortnltons and quite ontside of ths operation of natnral laws, auch aa might reasonably be anpposed to happen once in the history of a world; or whether it belong¬ ed to a class of psychological phenomena^the nately, they could come to no general agree¬ ment as to who the man was, or where he might be found, and ten to one if they found him, whether he wonld not turn ont to be a gentle and contented shepherd. Who ae'er had changed, nor wtuh'd to chnags his place. Job offered to feed several of those deatitnte flocks in different parts of the couutry, and went from Sunday to Sunday, giving speci¬ mens ofhis skill in preparing food for them. But they never once aeemed to reliah the provision which he offered ; and no wonder, for, mistaking the grass-loving nature of the animals, he threw hefore them tough meat, gristle and bone, which would have made a suitable repast for the carniverous natures, but altogether unsuited to the digestive or¬ gans of sheep. Among mauy other vacant places, there stood the "Old Rock Church," within three miles of the farm whereon Job was raised. It bad been destitute of a pastor for more than a year, simply because the offi¬ cial corps were hard to please. A dozen can¬ didates had done their best to gain the good opinion of the influential men and their wives. They had preached from the old pulpit their ablest sermons—doctrinal, practical, exegeti- cal, aud sentimental. One had pitched into Popery with hoots, spurs aud all on, suppo¬ sing thereby to get the vote of a leading man who was zealous against Rome. Another came down on slavery, iu a style that sound¬ ed terribly like the crack of a horse pistol, iusomuch that a fugitive slave, who sat in the gallery, before he was aware ofit, roared out, "Pidl again, boss." This was to please a wealthy gentleman of well-known anti-slavery Bentiments. A third weut against the liquor trade like the souud of many waters. This pleased the majority, but offended the most liberal men in the church, whose aid in fi- nanoials was indispensable. A fourth preach¬ ed on moderation in all things, and pleased nobody. Him they set aside by a unanimous voice. Finding tbat it was hard to agree, an aged member rose in a meeting of tbe officials^ and proposed to invite Job Shaddaky lo the pulpit. A sneering smile crept out on the face of every man present, for they all knew Job frotn his boyhood, and*were well ac- quaiiil"d with hia father before bim. But though these worthy men wonld not bave asked him to the pulpit in sober earnestness, yet tbey were willing to gratify their curiosity, and tbat keen love of amusement which is relished all the better under the restraints of a religious service. Many a man wbo can be grave at a comedy, finds an irresistable pro¬ pensity to laugh in church at the least ludic¬ rous occurrence. They asked Job to preach on the ensuing Sunday. He accepted the invita¬ tion wilh an understanding that it migbt he followed by a call. At the appointed lime his parents slipped quietly into the church and took seats under the gallery stairway. His eldest hrother placed himself behind the or¬ gan, while his sisters took a aide pew near the pulpit, tbat they might hear well, as they afterward said ; but the re.al motive was to exhibit to the congregation the persona of Jemima, and Jane, and Grace Shaddaky, the sisters of the preacher. As Job waa now on trial for a call, and before a congregation that knew him well, he had resolved to do hia best. His sermon consisted of a very learned discussion of the qaestion whether the He¬ brews borrowed oiroumoision from the Egyp¬ tians, or whether the Egyptians borrowed It from the Hebrews. If the subjeot was not well chosen, it was at least uncommon, and there waa not a man in the aasembly who could deny that it was illustrated with all the light that learning could throw upon it. Against the Egyptian origin of the rite, he refuted the testimony of Herodotus, Dlodorus, Apion, and Sir John Marsham, namea, not one of which, had ever been heard In that house nsolt of flome.ooonlt and hitherto inexpUoa- before. Then he brought up his reserves in whether he was relaled to old Horn who kept the saw-mill. Another wondered what kind of-gum it might be tbat was made of tar, as iie had never before heard of tar-gum. Aud iia to the Talmud, it was generally supposed to be a new kiud of manure, good for worn out land. Tliese rustics strictures were of course beneath the notice uf a mau of Job's learning, and yet a man of sense would have turned them to profitable account. He might at least, have seen that his plow was set en-> tirely: too deep for that part ofthe country.— Bat if these ci^ilicisms, ignorant and sonr as they were, failed to make an impression on Ills mind, wheu his sisters reported them, there was anothercla.ss of remarks far more effectnal. Before the congregation was half dispersed, it li^aked out that the sermon bad been preached with reference lo a call. " What," said one, " call Job Shaddaky lo be oar minister! Why I went to school with him in the Valley school-house, and aaw him get licked many a time for bad spelling ! .Tob Shaddaky, indeed!" " Yes !" said another, "and I have pitched pennies with hlin a hundred times behind bis father's Itaru. I thonght of it this moming while he was dealiug out tar-gum, and came near laughing right in his face." " Why," said a thiril, " I would quit the church if .Tob were called here. I have never liked the Shaddaky family since last election, when they all tried lo keep me out of office." An ill-natured maiden lady of forty said " they would have a blessed time of it with Job for a minister. Them Shaddaky girls would get so high, that their old auut Tamar, who nurses in the poor-house, would hardly know them. They would have a fine carriage before a month if tbey had to sell evpry cow on the farm to pay for il." The last pleasant remarks which the poor girls heard, as they went home, was from a surly fellow who never was kaowu to give a cent to the church, though lie was always in a quarrel wilh the church officers. He said that "Job bad betier go to work, for he was sure thatuothing but downright laziness had ever induced him to take lo the pulpit for a. living." As I have intimated, these spontaneous criticisms and casnal observations were indig¬ nantly reported by tbe girls at the dinner- table, aud Job there took his first lesson on the trials of a minister's life. The proof was satisfactory that, wherever else a prophet may have honor, he is not likely lo get a very liberal share of it in his own country. Thon, for the first time in his life, it occurred to him that the Man of Nazareth begau his ministry away from home. But if he felt the edge of these sharp sarcasms, bis wife felt it much deeper. She had heard the sermou, and, as became the wife of a minister, had worn ont .a pair of new gloves during the hour of its delivery, by unconsciously rubbing and biting them. Although her good aense went against such a display of erudition, yet she sympa thised with her hushand against his bitter persecutors, and declared that she would give them a bit of her mind the first time she saw them. Poor woman! She was not yet aware that while the privilege of the tongue belongs to all others, hera must cleave to the roof of her moutb. About two bours after dinner, aa the fami¬ ly sat in the porch, au old horse, hitched to a vehicle sadly in want of repair, was seen coming up the lane. Who can it be ? they all inquired. In a few minutes the venerable form of the Reverend Doctor Dock alighted from the carriage. Ho had been pastor of tbe Rock Chnrch for forty nine years, and was compelled to retire on a very inadequate pro¬ vision. His resignatiou had caused the pre sent vacancy, and he had watohed, with becoming concern, the lale efforts to supply the pulpit which he had left. He had heard Job's sermon in the morning, and now both the old folks and the girls were sure that he bad come to congratulate them all. On what other errand could be posibly have come?— The object of his visit, however, was uever fully known lo any one but .Tob himself; for after exchanging salutations with the family, he took the minister by the arm, and walked with him to the lower end of the orchard, where they sat down on a bench, in the shade of a large apple tree. Here, without doubt, he gave Job anch prudent connsel as age aud experience delight to impart. After a long conver.-^atiou they both returned to the house. The aged divine stepped into his carriage, and rode home As soon as he was gone, the family wanted to know wbat they had talked about. Job was silent for some time. They pressed him for information, nntil, at last, he said that " the infirmities of age must be borne with respect, but disre¬ garded in practice. Such men," he coniinued, "have outlived the generation which they were qualified to serve, and seem to be left in the world for no other pnrpose than as trials to the progressive spirit of yoath. I will never consent to bury my learning. Why did the doctors of lbe University teach me all this, and why did I labor for years to acquire it, if it is ouly to lie and "rot, like useless lumber, iu my memory?" Jemima said that " the old man mnst be grown childish." * .Tane thought that " having become too old to preach himself, he waa little qualified to adviae other.^ how to preach." Grace declared tbat "the old man would like to be followed by one as dull and dry as himself." The old folks said that " Doctor Dock waa old, yet he waa always considered a smart man and a good counselor, and perhaps it would be as well to follow his advice, what¬ ever it may have been." Age only can fully sympathise with age. Before the sun went down. Job made up his mind that he would cast no more pearls before such swine as as¬ sembled weekly in the Rock Church. He would follow the advice given him, and often repeated by the wbole college faculty. He would aim high. He would not waste that genins on a coantry church whioh was in¬ tended to blaze in cities, and augment the glory of the metropolitan pulpit. He would go to New York, where learning is apppreei- ated, and great talents always command a premium. To the mighty names already there, he would add another of rival renown, and the startled world shoald aoon repeat, with unmeaaured applause, the immortal name of Shaddaky. "There ia commonly a wide difference between speculative posaibll- ities and aotual performancea." If the reader is unable to judge from the sound of that sentenoe who wrote it, I leave him in Ignor- past, aa well as the eternity to come- opposite aide of the atreet stool a brewery, whoae beer barrel-i were piled on the pave¬ ment three deep, and great draught-horaea waiting to take them away. On the right stood a row of rotten buildinga, where our adopted fellow-citizens ate and drank, and fought, and gave abnndant work to policemen and priests. Onthe left, a bone-boIllng esta¬ blishment scented the air with ita peculiar odora. The ohurch itaelf waa neither of Corinthian, Ionic, Gothic, nor Romanesque style, bnt decidedly Swedo-Dutch. It was built of Btone, and covered with a hipped roof. The dumpy steeple rose just sixteen feet above the roof. Au iron rod went up through the top of the steeple. Half-way np the rod, four curved'pronga atood out, bearing on their pointa the initiala, N. S, E. W.— These were the fonr cardinal pointa of the compa.ss. Ahove thn lettera, a weather-vane, which had changed with the wlnda of a bun¬ dled years, had at last become fixed by rnst, aud steadily pointed in one direction, a^'if it would say to the worshippers below, " Be not carried about by every toind of doctrine." A great sounding-board hung over tbe rotund little pnlpit. The pews were commodiously large, with straight backs, and so high that no one cau see his fellow-worshippers, or even look out without looking heavenward, a good arrangement for restraining wandering eyes and vagrant thoughts. Altogether, it was -a. liltle, old, spunky-looking house of prayer, which had stood valoronsly agaiust time and fashion, and tbe boya, who had made uo impreaaion ou anythiug ahont it but the small panes of the large front window. Ihave already intimated that the prosperity of this hill of Ziou was sadly checked.-— Family after family had grown rich, and moved away, aud were now worshipping under frescoed ceilings, forgetful Of the place from whence they were digged, and the rock from which they were hewn. Only a few tried and faithful souls remained ; not that it was eitber convenient or agreeable to wor¬ ship in a surrounding solitude of empty seats, but because they were atlached to the venerable walls and dingy pews which had witne.ssed the baptism of their grandfathers, the marriaee rites of tbeir fathers, aud the funeral solemnities of their families through three generations. If this feeling is not a sentiment of nature, it is the earliest graft of piety, and deserves not the rude handling of a utilitarian age. It should never yield but to tbat stern necessity which demands the removal of consecrated houses, only wheu tbe tabernacle of Divine preseuce is lift¬ ed awry. Such waa the feeling which beld a few pions worshippers to the old church after the wealthy aud the gay bad ceased to tread its ancient aisles. They were too poor to engage the service of eminent talents, and but for the income from two houses that be¬ longed to tbe corporatiou, they must have suffered a famine of the Word. As it waa, the old church was a convenience by which I obscure talent miglit become kuown, aud becomiug known, might receive a loader call. Here Job began his city labors according to definite agreement; he to preach the Word, aud they to give SGOO per annum for bis temporal support aud c7)mfort. During the first tbree weeks the congrega¬ tion was larger,than it had been for years.— Tbe sexton, who was In the regular babit of counting heads, boasted that he had seeu no such assemblies iu that house since Doctor Treacle had left tbem for an up-town church. Alas ! That such fair hopes should be doomed I to disappointment. Decayed churohes, like decayed nations, are hard to revive. In this instance the sign of returning prosperity was as deceitful as the flush that reddens the consumptive's cheek. The love of novelty was soon satisfied, and the congregation be¬ gau to fall off. It Foon reached tbe oM num¬ ber of one hundred souls, slightly more or less. There it stood in defiance of all the useful arts of increasiug the atteudance. Job gave out his texts in advance, but the people stayed away. He published hia topics in the newspapers, and invited tbe public to hear sermona on tbe moat common-place sub¬ jects, such aa " Christian Heroism"—" Chris¬ tian Humility"—'"The Hope of the Righteous" —" The Joys of the Righteous"—" The death of the Righteous"—" The Recognition of Friends In Heaven," &o. But the scheme worse than failed, for the people heard so much of heaven, that, like the effect of a sur¬ feit of honey, they began to loathe tbe very mention of it. In the meantime, Job kept his ears open to hear the first Intimations of another call. It had beeu whispered about for some time that there was a feud between Dr. Doolittle and a large number of his con¬ gregation, which waa likely to come to an open rupture. Job heard of it with pious regret, and yet he was well sustain d hy the hope that, should the matter come to the worst, a kind Providence would overrule it go as to give him a sphere of labor much bet¬ ter suited to his talents. The report, how¬ ever, came to nothing. A case or two of clerical bronchitis gave bira a much stronger hope ; not, indeed, that he wished auy one to go to Europe, or to a rauch better country, for hi? special benefit, but he was willingthat Providence should have its way iu all things. "The incidental results of a calamity," said he, "may be advantageous to others who neither desire snch a calamity nor rejoice on account of it. Tbe ill wind that strews the shores with wrecks, may briug relief to the panting population ofthe land. They should thankfully accept the relief, and as sincerely deplore the disasters that attend its coming. Or, the poor man who is made rich by the death ofa relative, may be as sorry for that death aa a man can be who is raised by it from poverty aud toil to affluence and ease. Aud why shonld not I," be continued " re¬ joice iu hope of a better charge, though tbe acquisition should be gained by the providence which lays another aside, aud which I could not help if I would." Bat this hope failed also; for the bronchial cases were both cured by a new nostrum which the brethren paid for in the usual way, by giving certificates of its, astonishing effects. Finding but liltle reason to hopa for an early call elsewhere) Job resolved to make the most of his preaent poaition. So one Sunday nighl, after preach¬ ing to his still waning congregation, he went home, and with some twinges of conscience, and a ating of aelf-reproach for the thing, aat down and wrote a flattering eulogy of the sermon he bad jnst delivered. On the Tues¬ day following it appeared in the most popu¬ lar paper ofthe city,and thus public atteution for the first time was fixed on the name of the Rev. Job Shaddaky.. The uotice oftbe sermon read as follows ; "It has seldom falleu to our lot-to hear snch a magnificent pulpit discourse as we listened to on Sunday evening last, in the old church ou Duuca: nou street. The Rev. gentlemen's text was,' The stone with seven eyes.^ We smiled at first to hear such a sen¬ tence read from the Bible ; but as he proceed¬ ed to develop the mysterious meaning of the aingular text, we became interested, then absorbed, then lost in amazement. We ven¬ ture to say, that for comprehensive grasp of thought, logical acumen, depth and breadth, and general amplitude of learning, expressed in eloquencg the most original and startling, there is no clergyman in this city, where the atnnted, but tough old man, who wore great round glasaea, aet in horn frame, and whose invariable babit waa to keep on his Scotch plaid cloak till the beginning of dog-days— came rnnning to the parsonage, and nearly out of breath, told the preacher that the house was already full to overflowing, and that he would have to hurry np if he expeot¬ ed to get in himself. He added, as if he had prepared the speech for the occasion, that he "knew now that the old garden of grace was going to kill ihe fatted calf, and pul on tke whole armor, and run ihe race for tke prize witk the most finest houses up town." Job laughed outright at this medley of figurea, and was still raore titillated at the auccess of his scheme. He resolved, however, to make the most of the occasion, and remained at home until all the church-bells iu the city were done ringing. There Is dignity in delay, and he who would thrive by the public curi- oaity, will often contrive-to be too late. He reached the church about fifteen minates past the time, and seeing a crowd before tbe door, naturally supposed that every word the sex¬ ton had told him was true. "Here," said he, "is an opportunity not to be lost. I will not try to get in at the door, bnt climb through the rear wiudow. It will be a telling fact.— The newspapers will report It, and my fortnne will be made." Now, If Job had been a man of sense, as he was a man of learning, he would hafe tried to gain admission at the duor, and Ihereby aaved aome diaagreeable consequences. But,like a weak-minded raan as he was, he decided npon the rash experi¬ ment by the first impulse. He turned aside' and entering the alley-way, went to tho back window, which he found already hoisted.— He laid his hands on the rotten sill, and slowly lifted bimself up, and then as deliber¬ ately let himaelf down to the floor. Turning to walk to tbe pulpit, he was greatly disap¬ pointed to find that nobody stood in the aisles, and that one-fourth of the pews were empty. The singars iu the gallery, who had beeu sarprised and delighted by the suddeu iucrease of the congregation, had prepared a volantary to be suug at tbe instant the pastor should make his appearance; and, according¬ ly, without perceiving the accidental satire, as soon as he was seen entering, they atruck up. " Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as dovea to their vpindows?" ITufiirtunately, the music was so arranged as to require the fonrth repetition of the last words " doves to their windows.' This was too much. Human nature is loo keenly alive to the ludicrous lo bear such a temptation. The congregation snickered. Some laughed right out, and even the venerabla elders covered tbeir faces with huge bandannas, to save their credit for gravity. .Tob walked from tlie window to the pulpit In that ungainly manner in which a confused man always walks, one leg almost tripping tbe other at every step. He oould not help it, and few men couid help it while smarting under the ridicule of laughing eyes. He went throagh the first devotional pervlces under a double mortification, ashamed of the blunder of climbing iu at the wiudow, and self-re proached for having brought so large a congregation by such a questionable trick. When the choir were abont finishing the hymn, iramediately before the sermon. Job felt in his side pooket for his manuscript. It was not tbere. He felt iu the opposite pock¬ et. It was not there. He searched all his pockets, and looked into his hat. It was in none of them. In the fulness of his joy at the sexton's exaggerated report of the over¬ flowing house, he liad forgotten to bring his sermon, and was now in that interesting pre¬ dicament so happily described by a modern vulgarism In the two little words, "doneybr." The last note of the organ waa dying away, and the people were adjusting themselves to hear the eloquence which had been so ap¬ plauded in the papera. Swqat broke out all over him and ran into his boots. He waa undecided whether to explain hia awkward position and beg off, or venture the discourse from memory. After hesita'tii(r a moment, he rose with a neck-or-uo-thing K'nd of feel¬ ing, and began to read his text, Hnlf choked with confusion, he read, "And there appeared a great wonder iu heaven : a woman—" here he stopped and coughed. Crusty bachelors relaxed into a satirical smile, aa Ihey looked rouud on tbe ladiea ; and huabands, fond of teasing their wives, caught a new Idea. to be laid up for future use. He began again, and tbis tirae succeeded in reading the text quite through. He paused. The blood rushed to his cheeks. The first sentence ofhis writlen discourse seemed about a thousand fur¬ longs from his memory, and still flying off. The congregation were as quiet as mice, watching and listening with eager eyes and ears, and wondering raeanwhile whether this long pause wes intended for rhetorical effect. At last he begau with a mere mechanical ut¬ terance of the first fugitive thought that en¬ tered his mind. "The book of Revelation,'' said he, " is mysterious—profoundly myste¬ rious. It is, as it toere, full of mystery—so utterly and unfathomably incomprehensible, that very few have thoroughly understood it, as it were. Bishop, Newton in his celebrated dissertions, as it were, fully admits this. My frienda, I am Inclined to think—" That was true. He was " inclined to think ;" but what to tbink, or what to aay, was just now with hira tbe great qnestion ; so, after a raost dreary pause,he said, "My friends, lam sick. Suddeu sickness is the ready excuae for be¬ wildered and failing apeakers. No' anditor can say that be knowa it to be false, whatever be may suspect; and'it is according to both law and Gospel that the beuefit of the donbt should be given to the side of charity. ,Tob wished the aiidience dispersed aa soon as pos¬ sible, and accordingly gave the nsual bene- oome, and raeagre congregations have exas- beautiful forms, ¦ bnt " loves " of dresses— perated my pride and quenched the spirit of that Jessie, or Jennie, or Hattie muat not be my compositions. The evil has propagated ' children, but tiny nimiug-criming women— itself, increasing dullness resulting in a de- , jnst mamma in duodecimo. This isa mista creasing audience. Besides this, I have been | ken idea, and it ia time that mothers were find- obliged to bear with weaknessea which I des- i ^^S it out. At tbis day, when our young meu piaed, aud court the good will of foola, wbo, j want so sadly what is tersely termed " back- in any other relation, I wonld have passed j hone," when oar young women want stamina, without notice. I regret my education itself, ; when as a people we need physical strength. aud especially my edncation for the pulpit. It baa made rae ambitions of distinction which I cannot gain, and ambition haa made me un¬ scrupulous as to the means. I entered the rainistry aa a profession, and have so far dis¬ oharged its duties with views merely profea¬ aional. I thonght that I migbt make It the buaineas of my life, as a man devotes himself to medicine or law. But I see the mistake. Providenco has given meuo ai(;n of encour¬ agement, and the humiliating result of to¬ day's stratagem has determined me to quit the pulpit forever. "Truly," aaid his wife, "thia is the best speech I have heard from you yet, aud it suits ray feelings best. It may be tbe duty of others to continue in the ministry, but if what you say is true it is just as clearly your duty to leave it. As for myself, au experi¬ ence of six months has quite satisfied my ambition for the honors of a pastor's wife.— I am sick of kissing all the old women for popularity's sake. I hardly know whether I should rejoice or weep over the events of lo- day. If it was necessary to drive you from tbe pulpit, much as it mortifies me, I ara heartily glad ofit. "But what shall we do ?" asked .Tob. " Starvi', if we ranst," an.swered hia wife; "pick raga from the guttera with an iron hook; gather bones from the strees, and sell thera to the bone-boilers near our 'precious gardeu of grace," as the old sexton called it; do any honest labor outside of a pulpit, and I am content to share it. I shall decline no toils aa loug as I remember that I was once a minister's wife I But you know, Job, that we have a little farm, that my father gave us on our wedding day. Let us go to that." In the middle of the followiug summer might have been aeen a mau in coarse clothes, leading the reapers in the field through the day, aud readiug the Eclogues of Virgil in the evening ; retiring early to bed, and risiug with the dawn ; a mau who had thrown away am¬ bition, and was happy that he had thrown it away. It was the late Rjv, Job Shaddaky— a strikiug example of the truth, that no de¬ grees of eduoation can supply the deficiency of a native sense, or qualify a man for a posi¬ tion in the world for which he is unfitted by nature.

A lady, plodding, anall paced chap, might have got along in tbe world fifty years* ago ; bnt he won't do for these times. We live in au aga of quick ideas; men think quick—apeak quick—eat, sleep, conrt, marry, die quick—and slow coaches ain't tolerated. " Go ahead ifyou burst your biler," is the motto of the age; and he succeeds the best iu every line of buainess, who has the most of the do-or-die in him. Strive boys, to catch thespirit ofthe times; be up and dressed alwaya, no grasping and rnbbing your eyes; aa Ifyou wero half asleep, but wide awake, whateve'r may turu up— and you may be somebody before you die. Think, plan, reflect as much as you please before you aot; but think quickly and close¬ ly, and when you have fixed your eyes upon an ohject, apring to the mark at onoe. But above all things be honest. Ifyou in¬ tend to be an artist, carve it iu the wood, chisel it in marble ; ifa merchant, write it in your day book and spread it in capitals in your ledger. Let honesty of purpose be your guiding star. Self-love raagnifies or diminishes the good qualities ofour friends in proportion to the satisfaction we take in thera, i^nd we judge of their merit by the terms they keep with us. ' We may appear great in an employment be¬ low our merit ; bnt we ofteu appear little in one that is too high for ns. there ia a " reform " upon tbis sulijec*. very much needed also. Now is the time to com¬ mence a good work which is vehemently cal¬ led for, aud where shall we begiu wilh a bet¬ ter prospect of snccess than among tbe think¬ ing, substantial, practical readers of tho Ex¬ aminer?" I would have mothers leiuember thattbeirdaughters'luugs are no betturadap - led to bear without injury the putrid air of close and beated rooms thau is the breathing apparatus of their sons. I would have thera remember that if restricted (physical) educa tiou, enfeebled healtb, delicate nervous sys¬ tem, and above all it purposeless aimless lifct are not calculated to bring out tho genius aud build up the reputation of their sons, neither are they to be depended ou to do this for their daughters. I would have them en¬ courage their little girls to excereise, elfort, industry, and onergy, so as to give them the health, vigor, aotivity, and power to expand into a glorious womanhood—in a word, I would that they be encouraged to become real, 6ona^(£c,fle3h-and-blood " Tom-boys." My idea of a "Tom-boy " does not neces¬ sarily include rudeness, uncouth manners, or "outlandish ways" generally—by no meana. Tho " Tom-boy" is an eager, earn¬ est, impulsive, bright-eyed, glad-hearled, kind-aouled, living, and real apecimen of the genus fomiuffl. Ifherlaugh is a littla too frequent, and her tone a trifle to emphatic, we are willing to overlook these for the sake of the true life andexhiliarting vitality to which they are the" eacape valves ;" and indeed we rather like tbe high pressure nature wbich must close off Its superfluous " ateam " in auch ebullitions. The glancing eye, theglow- iug cheek, the fresh, balmy breath, tho lithe and graceful play of the limbs tell a tale of healthy and vigorous physical developement, wbich is Nature's best beanty. The soul and the raind will be developed ulso in due time, and wo shall havo before ns au-oTJia/i, in the highest sense of the term. Tbe "Toin-bdy " is beantifnl, in her way ; sho is wise, also, in a way peculiarly her owu. She knows the names of all the cows, can ride tho horses to water without bridle or saddle, o la Joan d'Arc, can toll you what tho spade, ahovel, and hoe are made for, .she cau hunt hena' nests, feed the \oung turkeys, know whero abouts on the bluff th« first blue violets blow, aud where amid the tbin grass iu the meadow the wild strawberries ripen. She can describe to yon the different fish tbat haunt hor favorite "branch," for she's caught the "silver-shiners" many a time; cau iuform you whon the youug brood in the blue bird's uest will he ready to fly, for tbat household is under her especial protection ; and her native countenance is full of the visions of the weather-seer, as she explains to you that "it is cerlain lo rain to-raorrow," for tbe "pink- eyed pimpernel" has closed, and there is a deep sigh from the south among the mcun- tain pines. When the " Tom-hoy" has sprung up to a healthful aud vigorous womanhood, she will be ready to take hold of the duties of life, to become a worker in the great system of humanity. She will not sit down to over the "work given her to do," to simper nonsense, languish in ennui, or fall sick at heart; but sho will ever be ablo to take up her burden o'f duty, while nature, men, so¬ ciety, and governments exist. In her tread there will he sound philosophy, in her thoughta boldness and originality, in hor heart Heaven's own purity, aud the "world will be better that ahe has lived in it." That beantiful idea so well expressed by Long-fellow— " Life ia real, lifa la earnest." will be the soul of all her actions—she will early realize that woman, the world's great verb, was created not merely "to be," but "to do," and too often, alas ! " to suffer " also.— But to this, her allotted task, she will bring bealth, vigor, streugtb, energy and spirits, and these will give her both the power and endurance, without which her life must be, in some respeota at least, a failure. I would that everybody could learn to love and appreciate that beautiful embodiment of freshness, grace, sincerity, simplicity and na¬ ture, the " Tom-boy." I.

What shall I go at? It did very welt while I was at It; for I was then employed ; endeavoring to devote my energies to a usefnl purpose, and receiving a recotupence therefore, aud what waa lacking pecuniarily was made up in the aatisfaction of the good accomplished." We cau almost imagine we hear aome teacher soliloquising tbus. Aud indeed it is quite a serious question wilh many teachers about cloaing Ihoir 4 or^ months term, "what shall we do ?" We have brten in this situa¬ tion more than once, and can trnty feel for those, of the teachers profession, now feeling the force of this question. And were it in our power, wo would gladly auswer this qnes¬ tion for all snch. It is easier, however, to lell what should not be done. Tbe first tbat occurs to us, ou tbis last list is.

When we are uot teaching we should be still qualifying ourselves better for the pro¬ fession. Wo know it is diiHuuIt for some to apply themsolves to study, unless they are at school aud driven to it, as they aay. But then, what pursuit in life, that is worthy of attainment, that is not attended with its diffioulties? And then, cousider thu crowu that awaits the success of these persevering efforts. Wo know uf some who took the mental arithmetic in their pockets, or tho grammar iu their hats, out iuto the field wilh them, and when the horsea were turning at the end of the furrow, or would atop a minute to real, would out with the mental or grammar, and read a little, aud then, as they would be ploughing along the next furrow, would solve tho prohlem, or parse tho sentence. And what might we expect of such ? Verily, thoy do houor to onr profession To such, though they might wish to teach ten mouths iu the year, yet, the sis months vacations, is uo loss to them. Tho physical exorcise is strengthening to thtfm, and their improvomeui goea ou ; and wheu the wiuter or fall leim commences, they are not on'.y ready, hut brichteuod up for the ensuing six mouths' work.

To all their questions, there fore, he answered that it was no one thing in particular, bnt asudden and general breaking down of both body and mind. His wife seem¬ ed leas troabled about his sickness than might reasonably have been expeoted, for she occu¬ pied a pew from which sbe had seen him searching in vain for his manuscript, and was therefore prepared for a humiliating failure. She was a great deal more angry tban sad.— of the fair ses the occasion for a grand demon¬ stration, which is chronicled by the San An¬ dres Independent. The men all turned out, setting their best foot foremost. Several shirts were sported on tbe occaaion, and a certain member of Congress, to mark hig high satis¬ faction, drew from the bottom of his clojhes box, an antique ** yaller vest," that had not seen the light for many a month. The boys, dressed in their neatest duds, were grouped Duties and Pleasures of Women. Great indeed is the task assigned to women^ Who cau exaggerate its importance ? Not to make laws, not to govern empires, bnt to form those by wbom laws are mado, armies led and empires governed; to guard from the slightest taint of possible infirmity, the frail and yet spotless creatures wbose tuoral, uo less than physical being mnst be derived from her ; to inspire tboae principles, to in¬ culcate those doctrines, to animate those sen¬ timents which generations yet unborn, and nations yet uncivilized, shall learn to bless ; ¦ to soften firmness into mercy, to chasten bonor into virtue ; .by her soothing oares to allay the anguish of tbe mind ; by her parity to triumph over sense ; to cheer the scholar laboring under his toil; to console the states man for the ingratitude of amiatakeu people; to compensate for hopes that are blighted, for tbe friends that are perfidious, for happiness that has passed away. Such ia her vocation. The couch of the tortured sutTerer, the per¬ son of the deserted frienil.^, the cross of the neglected Savior; tbese are the theatres on whiuh her greatest triumphs have been achieved. Such is btsr destiny: to visit the forsaken ;. amid the forgetfulness of myriads, to remember; amid the execrations of mul titudes, to bless ; wheu monarchs abandon, when brethren and disciples fiy, to remaiu unshaken and unchanged, and to exhibit in this lower world a type of that love, pare, constant, and ineffable, which in another world, as we aro taught to believe, is the best roward of virtue.

She was at the foot of tho class, aud seemed to cnre but little about wbat liad pa.ssed iu it. During the school hours singing was sometimes em¬ ployed as a relaxation, and noticing tbat this girl had a very clear, sweet voice, her teacher said to her: *' Jane, you have a good voice, and you may lead in the singiug." Shu brightened up, and from that time her mind seemed more active. Uer lessons were attended to, and ehe made steady progress. Ouo day, as tho teacher was going homo, sbe overtook Jaue and one of her school-fellows; "Welt, Jane," said she, "you are getting on very woll at school; how is it that you do so much better now thau you did at tbe beginning of the half year ?" "I do not know why it is," replied Jane. " I know what she told me the othor day," said her companion who was with her. *' And what was that ?" asked the teacher. " Why, she said she was encouraged." Yes, there was tho secrat—she was encour¬ aged. She felt she was not dull iu every¬ thing; she had learned self-respect, and thus she was encouraged lo solf-impruvemeut. Take the hint, dear fellow teacher, aud try to reach tho intellect throngh the heart. Endeavor to draw out the dormant faculties ofyour children by discriminating culture and well-timed praise. Give them the credil whenever you can, and allure theiu with hopeful words. Mauy a dull-minded child has been made irretrTevably stnpid by con¬ stant fault-finding or ungenerous sarcasm. Aud, on the other hand, bow oflen has a genial smile or au appioviug remark awa¬ kened into uew life aome slow-learning scholar. — Tke Elevator. HH Chemistry in Common Schools. Said we to the State Agent of the Illinois State Teachers' Association the other day, " How many graded schools are there in the stato where tha principles of chemistiy are taught practically?" Ho answered, "Nol more than filty !" Aud this iu the face of the fact, that every farmer aud farmer's wife needs to know more of this science than any otber, because their every day duties involve chemical laws, which, if better uuder.stood, would save a vast deal of error and indeci.-^iou iu husbandry or home management. But if people du not desire tbeir children ahall he taught theso sciences-r-chemistry, botany, vegetable physiology and the physiology of themselves, thoy need not expect teachers will qualify themselves to do it. Create a demand aud there will be a supply of such teachers.—Emery^s Journal of Agriculture. NOTICE.
