May Cod speed the cause, and give it a stronger huld in the hearts of the people, and lead them to love it as their Iiie and far more than the corruptible man which must moulder in the dust.

And the many dollars that arc foolishly spent in adorning the poor, paltry self, which is so soon to become food for the worms, will be given to God for the advaueemeut of His glory and honor.

How we live to the world, while we profess to live to God how much we yield to the pride of the eye and the lust of the flesh, aud bow down to the opiuions of others, forgetting that "The things are highly esteemed by man are an abomination God."
