Now what is yor duty, your solemn j Christian duty towards thai person J Is it to ! malign his character, to do violence to his per. son, or injure biro in his professions ? Is it to look upon hi'" with a ellS of revenge, and so to demean yourself towards him, as to make him understand! that you indulge a settled hos lility in your heart towards him ? Certainly not. What then ? Let the blessed Saviour answ-r. Loyc your enemies." Now, what ! does this mean ? This is an important ques tion lo settle. It does not mean that we are to he ignorant of the character of an enemy, of insensible to his injuries. This would often be impossible. I does not mean that we are to approve of their wicked conduct and designs. j This would make us partakers of other men s to sins. It does not imply that we are not lo de fend ourselves fagainst the atfacks, and violent assaults of an enemy. This, in some instan. ces would be to hazzard our lives, or sacrince What then does it mean ? It t our reotilalion. unquestionably! implies that we fully and freely forgive them, from the heart, for any injury, real or imaginary, whieh we may have sustained by ,hem.

Think of it, reader. It imp!i?s that we sincerely pity them, and earn estly pray for them. It is not enough, merely to syllable their names at the mercy seat ; but we should wrestle with God in prayer, that he may lead them, to a discovery of their error. and excite bet er teeungs ana aispoSiuui.s i.. il... . inmn rt s in It nln imn IC8 II II We im-ll iii ana hmhuuj uj. a -i ( lli.t p.lf.oiir;."c anv slens which lhe' may ------ rn j in q vci a 'reconciliation ; and on their giv. ino- us ood evidences of a sincere repentance Hr their i:ijiui, or misconduct, we should cer taiuly restore tjjern to our friendship, and love.

Nor does one or I wo years constant running well render him secure. The enemy of souls is well acouainted with his weakness, and will seek to entrap him in his toils. It is then as much the minister's duty to use every effort to preserve all those who have taken the name of Christ, as it is to labor in cessantly, "in season and out of season," for the conversion of sinners, Rich.

He has so far re covered, now, as to follow the avocation of his farm with little or no difficulty.
