He perceives that the sun nd the moon perforin their circuit without- loitering on the way; and learns from them, that industry is required at his bauds. He looks to hea ven through its rains and its dews, for the reward of his la bors in the abundance of his crops. He makes the sacred volume of Revelation the man of his council, and source of hi consolation. He unites with his wife and children in tones of supplication and strains of praise around the family altar, on the morning; and evening of each day.
