In acquiring a know ledge of the English language, and especially ill learning th'e meaning of words, probably no other work, nor many other books altogether, can afford Sp much aid as Webster’s Unabridged Diotionaiy, with its 3000 pictorial illustration^, its precise and full definitions, its careful discriminations of synon ymous words, Sind its many val uable tables. It is, in itslelf, a whole libraiy of the language. Let one family have a copy of this work, and use it faithfully, and another be without it—the diffei-ence in tlie progress of the two families in getting knowledge w'ill be very' great.—Khid iVords. EOVE FOB TUE BIBEE. A blind girl yvlio liad received a copy of the Bible in raised let ters, read it so eagerly and con stantly witli her fingers that tliey^ were soon so worn that every line she read was marked with blood, and ere long her fingers became so sore tliat slie could no longer read them. Thinking that for weeks she could not use her Bi ble again, she raised it to lier lips for a loving good-by^e kiss. As the raised letters of the page touclied lier lips, a thrill of glad surprise flushed her face, for she found she could read the page by her lips; and so, wliile her fingers recovered, she moved the pages across her lips, and with greater relisli than for physical food, “ God’s words were found, and slie did eat them; and they were unto her the joy and rejoicing of lief heart,” “sweeter also tlian honey and the lioney comb.” But there are many Christians who have not this ‘relish’ for God’s Word; who read it as a duty, not as a delight; who come to it, not becaus'e they hunger for it as a delicious food, but because they think Ihey must take it as a nec essary medicine. IIow' can sucli Christians secure this ‘relish’ for Bible reading f—Preshyteridn. Paid $10.97, Collection in Rockingliain. 'u 39.30, ii “ Laurinbnrg. a 3«.r)(), ii “ Lumbertou.

That was a beautiful idea in the mind of the little girl, who, oil beholding a rose bush wdiere, on the topmost stem, the oldest rose was falling, while below and around it three beautiful crimson buds w'cre just unfoldinaf their charms, at once and artlessly' ex claimed to her brother; “See, Willie, those little buds have just awakened in time to kiss their mother before she dies.” Moiiey' and time are the heavi est burdens of life, and the un- happiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to usd. Labor is the duty man owes to society ; re.st to his person ; and recreation to his mind. For tSie week ending: Sei»l. asrSi. IN CASH. Si- Baptist Olniroh “ fi.flO, Orphans’ Frieiui. 6.9(1, Hr. VV.
