Samuel Weslevq father of John Wesley, furnislies a fine illustra tion of the successful “pursuit of knowledge under difficulties.” His father died when he was on ly eight or nine 3rears old. His friends placed him at a dissent ing academy ; but falling in with some persons as ultra in their dissent from the Established Church, as tho opposite part}- were bigoted in their attachment to it, he turned Churchman, and abruptlv" left his school. But, sa3's Southe3', Samuel Wesle3' was of good mould; he knew, and could dejtend ou himself. He walked to Oxford, and enter ed himself at Exeter College as a poor scholar, and began his studies there with no larger a fund than two pounds sixteen shillings, and no prospect ot a future suppl3'. From that time till he gradua ted, a single crown was all the assistance he received. He com posed exercises for those students who had more monc3' than learn ing, he gave instruction to those who wished to profit by his les sons ; and thus, bx' great indus try and great frugality, ho not onlv supported himself, but had accumulated the sum of ten pounds fifteen shillings, when he went to London to be ordained. —Anecdotes for the Yoimg. MOKAE CS5AKACTEB. There is nothing which adds so much to the beauty and power of man, as a good moral charac ter. It is his wealth-^his iuflu ence—his life. It dignifies him in every station, exalts him in every condition, and glorifies him at every period of life. Such a character is more to be desired than an3'thing else on earth. It makes a man free and independ ent. No servile tool—croaking s3'cophant—no treacherous honor- seeker ever bore such a character. The pure joys of truth and right eousness never spring in such a person. If young men but knew how much a good character would diguif3' and exalt them, how glorious it would make their prospects, even in this life ; never should we find them 3delding to the grovelling and base-born pur poses of human nature. milSICAE WAKHIOUS. Russian soldiers upon marches sing to while away tedium, and the solos, always in a minor key and monotonous, are varied b3’ lively bursts in the chorus. The solo singer alwav^s improvises, and is usuallv .acooinpaiiied 1)3^ a man witli a fiddle, a triangle, a clarionet, or b}' one who whis tles. The orclinaiy uniform of tho infantiy consists of a kepi, a tunic, and pantaloons of dark greet! cloth, the latter garment being inserted in the boots. The gray overcoat is carried in a roll at the back, from the right shoul der to the left hip. Two cart ridge boxes are attached to the leather belt in front, A canvas haversack hangs at the right be hind the ba3^onet, and tho knap sack covers the back.
