THE FAMILY CIRCLE.
From the Reaper.
“ How may I go to Jesufe ?”
I wish someone would tell me how,
A child may go to Jesus now ;
If he were here, I think I would
Ask him to bless, and make me good.
Children once went to him, and he
Was pleased such little ones to see ;
How I should like to have been there,
His blessing and his love to share.
Dear little child, indeed you may
Go to your Saviour every day,
For always, when you kneel in prayer,
Tho’ you can’t see him, he is there.
But don’t forget that Jesus sees,
All that you think while on your knees ;
And you offend him when you pray,
Unless you feel the words you say.
Then go to Jesus; do not fear,
But he your little voice will hear;
* A child who prays will Jesus love,
And he shall see his face above.
From the Reaper.
The Heavenly Home.
Dear children, there’s a blisslnl spot
Above the starry skies,
Where pain and grief can enter not,
Where pleasure never dies.
And children would you happy live,
Within that world of bliss?
Would you a crown of life receive,
And dwell where Jesus is?
Then come unto the Saviour now !
Yield unto him your heart,
Before him humbly, meekly bow,
And with earth’s idols part.
Then, children, you will happy be,
While in this world you move,
Ind through a vast eternity,
You’ll feaston Jesus’love. w. h. w.
THE BOOK OF THANKS.
■‘l feel so vexed and out of temper
with Ben !” cried Mark, “that I really
must
“Do something in revenge ?” inqui
red his cousin Cecilia.
“No, look over my Book of Thanks.”
“What’s that?” said Cecilia, as she
saw him turning over the leaves of a
copy book nearly full of writing, in a
round text hand.
“■Jere it is,” said Mark, then read
aloud ; “March 8. Ben lent me his
new hat.”
Here again : “Jan. 4. When I lost
my shilling, Ben made it up to me
kindly.”
“Well,” observed the boy, turning
down the leaf, “Ben is a good boy al
ter all I”
“What do you note down in that
book?” said Cecilia, looking over his
shoulder with some curiosity.
“ All the kiudnesses that ever are
shown me, you would wonder how ma
ny they are. I find a great deal of
good from marking them down. Ido
not forget them as 1 might do, if I on
ly trusted to my memory, so 1 hope
that I am not often ungrateful, and
when I am cross or out, of temper, I al
most always feel good humored again,
if I only look over my book.”
“I wonder what sort of tilings you put
down,” said Cecelia. “Let me glance
over a page.”
“Mrs. Wade asked me to spend the
whole day at her house, and made me
very happy, indeed.”
“Mrs. Phillips gave me five shil
lings.”
“Old Martha Page asked after me
every day when 1 was ill.”
“Why do you put father and moth
er at the head of the page,” asked Ce
cilia.
“O, they show me so much kindness
that I cannot put it all down, so I just
write their names to remind myself of
the i reat debt of love. I know that I
never can pay it. And see what I have
put at the beginning of my book : ‘Ev
ery good gift ’s from abovethis is
to make me remember that all the
kind fiiends whom I have, were given
to me by the Lord, and that while I
am grateful to them, I should, first of
all, be thankful to Him.”
I think that such of my readers as
have ability and time, would find it a
capital plan to keep a Book of Thanks;
and may such as canuot write them
down, yet keep a book of remem
brance of past kindnesses in their
hearts. __
A NEW TEAK’S RESOLVE.
“Mamma, I mean to begin the new
year to love Jesus.” So said a sweet
little girl of six summers.
“But,” said her mother, “how do
you know you shall live to the new
year (
Emma dropped her eyes upon the
floor, and sat for some moments in si
lence. At length she looked up, the
tears glistening in her eyes, and said:
Perhaps I shall not; I will begin
now; and then, Mamma* I shall be a
Christian when the new year begins,
if God lets me live.”
And by tile -side of her dear mama
she knelt, and repeated the words of a
favorite hymn —
‘‘Jesus, I give myself to thee.”
A sweet season followed. Before a
week had passed away, Emma hoped
she had given her heart to the Savior.
A month after, she was, with others,
buried with Christ in baptism. How
many of our dear childreu, looking to
Jesus to help them, will commence the
new year thus ? Hasten to him ; tell
him how wicked you have been to re
fuse so long to love him after his great
goodness to you. So shall you be
folded in his arms, and with joyful
hearts you will find this the happiest
year you have ever known.
THE NAME BAPTIST,
As now applied, was probably not
used till about two hundred yeaisago,
or a little after the middle of the 17th
century. The sect everywhere spoken
against, were called Ana-baptist, or
re-baptizers, because they held the
baptism of Home, to be invalid, and
re-baptized as it was said, all who
came to their communion from the
ranks of Popery, though they never
admitted the justness ox the title Ana
baptist. On this fact, we suppose, is
founded the flimsy plea, that there ex
ists no such church as we now call
Baptist, prior to that date. But it is
easy to show, even from their enemies,
that the principles for which they now
contend, have always found unyiel i
ing defenders from the remotest;
depths of antiquity, as Moshiem ex- .
presses it against the Romish hierar- 1
chy—or errorists who had departed ;
from the original simplicity of the gos
pel.
Cutting says his earliest trace of the
name Baptists is found in a book or
pamphlet published in They
then called themselves the Baptized,
or Ba tized churches to distinguish
from other denominations whom they
looked upon as unbaptized.
Baptist is both a protest against the
misnomer Ana-baptist and a euphe
mism for Baptized, and does not mean
Baptizers as it is sometimes said, and
as it really does as applied to John the
harbinger, in the gospel. —[La. Bap
tist.
FAMILY RELIGION, AND ITS IN
FLUENCE ON THE CHURCH.
One of the best securities for the
growth and prosperity of a church, is
to be sought in a faithful exhibition of
religion in families. Here is a law of
increase, which God has incorporated
in his church, and by which he designs
to give it strength and encouragement.
But why is it, the question is asked
with grief and pain—why is it that so
many children, so many apprentices
and servants, are seen to grow up, or
to live many years in Christian fami
lies, without any regard, or even re
spect for religion i It is because their
parents, guardians, or masters, have
that 6ort of piety which can flourish
only, like Peter’s sword, on great oc
casions. Then, perhaps they appear
to have an excess of piety, and put
forth many awkward efforts to do good
in their families; of a character, it
may be, to give them a permanent dis
gust for religious things. But when
the great occasion is past, their work
is done up. A spirit of worldliness
now rolls in again, a want of conscience
begins to appear, a light and carnal
conversation to show itself.
The preaching of the Gospel is very
critically, and somewhat wittily can
vassed on the Sabbath. The day itself,
in the meantime, fares scarcely better
than the preacher. It is shortened by
degrees at both ends; sometimes even
by a newspaper, or some trifling con
versation in the middle. There is no
instructive remark at the family pray
ers ; and, perhaps, no family instruc
tion anywhere. There is no eflort to
point the rising family toward a bet
ter world, and apparently no living
for such a world. Bad tempers are
manifested in government and in bus
iness. Arts are practiced below dig
nity, and wide of integrity. How is
it possible that the children and youth
of such a family should not learn to de
spise such a religion ? llow different
would be the result, if there were a
simple, unostentatious piety kept up
with constancy, and the fear of God
were seen to be a controlling principle
in all the daily conduct and plans of
life.
There have been many striking ca
ses of conversion, which were pro
duced, by simply seeing the godly life
of a Christian in his family, without a
word of direct address, and in a time
of general inattention to religious
things. In such a family, every child
and inmate will certainly respect reli
gion. And the Church, in fact, may
count on receiving a constant and cer
tain supply from the bosotn of such
families. —[Christian Miscellany.
THE TWO SCENES.
“There are two scenes which haunt
me,” said a devoted Christian, recent
ly. “I was called in haste to see a
man who was dying. He was rolling
on his bed; there was horror in every
line of his face.” ‘Oh, I can’t die ! I
can’t die ! I can’t go to the judgment!’
he exclaimed, filled with agony. I
spake of Jesus to him, but it gave him
no comfort, and soon his spirit passed
away.
It was a few days after that I stood
beside another dying bed. It was a
man in the prime of life. He was in
great bodily pain; but there was a
smile upon his countenance. ‘Come,
Lord Jesus,’ he said, and died. They
haunt me; I shall never forget them.
THE REFUGE.
A little bird was closely pursued by
a hawk ; it flew for retuge into a gar
den, and strove to hide among the
bushes, but the hawk followed; the
little bird again flew, but again barely
escaped. Just, however, as its strength
was nearly exhausted, and as it would
have been torn to pieces by its devour
er, a poor old man entered the garden:
the little bird flew toward him and
darted into his breast, where it nestled
safely from the hawk. llow like this
is the case of poor hunted sinners. Sa
tan seeks them—no shelter secures
them until they fly to the bosom of Je
sus, and there rest safely.
Little children, fly to Jesus.

Tin HIS volume cannot fail to stimulate religious
-5- thought and discussion. It presents novel,
original and startling views. It places within the
Christian fold many who claim no place there; cuts
off from it many who consider themselves entitled

character which are vitally distinct from those
which are current in the popular religion of the
day. It is one of the books to be read, marked,

With Appendixes, containing Historical Notes and
Confessions ol Faith.
BY SEWALL S. CUTTING,
Professor of Rhetoric and History in the Univer
sity of Rochester.
12mo, Cloth. 75 cents.
This is an admirable contribution to Baptist
History, tracing the origin and rapid growth of
Baptist principles in England at the time of the
Reformation, and suggesting important lessons for
future guidance. The Appendixes contain histor
ical facts worth two fold the price of the volume.
The Puritans; Or the Court, Church and Parlia
ment of England, during the reign of Edward
Sixth and Elizabeth. By Samuel Hopkins. 3
vols., Bvo. Vol. 1. $2 50.
This volume is quite as remarkable for histori
cal accuracy as for pastoral skill. Critics who
have examined its authorities with scrupulous
care, speak in the highest terms of its stern fideli
ty to truth. Mr. Hopkins will take his place with
the leading historians of the country, Bancroft,
Prescott and Motley.
This noble and sightly volume is attractive by
its literary contents, as well as by its unsurpassed
mechanical execution. It has the interest of a
historical romance, so minute are the details, so
dramatic the narration, so characteristic the
versations, and life like the descriptions.

FAMILY SEWING MACHINES,
Promote the leisure, health and happiness of home.
REASONS WHY THIS MACHINE IS UNIVER
SALLY PREFERRED OVER ALL OTHERS.
1 BECAUSE it is the only Sewing Machine in
• the w orld ever invented, so constructed as
to fully meet the demands of families, for general
use.
2. It is very simple and is never liable togetout
oi order.
8. It makes a seam which will not rip, though
every third stitch is cut.
4. It is not a Shuttle Machine.
5. It sews with two needles, making any length
stitch desired.
6. It sews from two ordinary spools, and thus
all trouble of winding thread is avoided ; while the
same Machine can be adapted at pleasure, by a
mere change of spools, to all varieties of work.
7. The same Machine runs silk or linen thread,
and common spool cotton, with equal facility.
8. This Machine will sew in the slieves of a coat
with the same ease andfacility that it sewsa straight
seam.
9. This Machine can be run to make one thou
sand five hundred stitches per minute.
10. The seams are elastic as the most elastic
fabric, so that it is free from all liability to break in
washing, ironing or otherwise.
11. The stitches made by this machine are more
beautiful than any other made either by hand or
machine. For sale by

THE PSALMIST, WITH MUSIC.
Just Published,
THE PSALMIST, WITH MUSIC.
A Manual for tbe service of Saored Songs in Bap
tist Congregations and Choirs.
COLLATED BY B. F. EDMANDS,
Conductor of Music at Baldwin Place Church, Bos
ton. Royal 12mo, embossed cloth, SI,OO.
THIS Manual is pronounced by competent judg
es superior to any Collection of Sacred Mu
sic now in use. It is particularly rich in the good
old tunes, embalmed in the praises of the sanctua
ry, dear to aged saints, and hallowed in the memo
ries of childhood. It contains every hymn of the
Psalmist, the Hymn Book now in universal use in
Baptist Churches, with the same numbering, and
every hymn has one or more tunes attached to it.
It is also more convenient in size, and cheaper in
price than any similar Manual, and is adapted for
the use of Choirs as well as Congregations. Our
churches can now introduce congregational sing
ing at small expense, for the old editions of the
PSALMIST will retain all their value, and only
those will need to purchase the new edition, who.
wish to have the tunes before them in singing.
The publishers on receipt of half the price
of the book, will send a copy of the Manual, post
paid, to any Pastor or Chorister, wishing to exam
ine it with reference to its adoption.
Orders sent should specify the CHANT edition,
or SUPPLEMENT edition.
