A SHoRr XTOR\ WITH V MORAL. iiy i'i.u:n c, nouns. “Honor thv father and thy mother,” is the first commandment with promise —promise a.- beautiful in its exemplification as glorious in its conception.— ; A mother's lips fir-r breathed into onr ears those , words of Holy Writ, and explained tloir general ini ! port; and from the time when the story of grav-hair ed Elijah and his youthful moekers first excited me young imagination, up to mature womanhood, the respect then insjiired for the white hair- of age has grown with my growth, and .strengthened w ith my j strength. We sigh as we think of the days when J the young were wont to how hetbiv the hoary head,! and, by gentle, uncalled-for assiduities, strew roses i in the old man’s tottering path. But those kindly customs of onr puritan ancestors have passed away. The world grows selfish, as it grows old; and age-dimmed eyes must turn home ward for stays to their trembling hands and tottering limbs. Here should they find the fulfilment of the first commandment with promise. No true, womanly soul ever withdrew her gentle hand from her poor old father or mother, no manly heart ever forgor the home-loves of his wayward childhood, or ceased to hear the echoes of a fond mother’s prayers. Often the cares ofihis w orld, and the decoitfulnoss of riches, may choke up the inborn affections of narrow souls; lmt lew and far between is the fondly loved child, who can be so untrue to himself or his Maker, as w holly to forget the mother j who bore him. Yet even with the holiest dictates of our reasons | and souls, as with tin- wider application of the com- I mandment, has Fashion insinuated her poisonous in fluence; and the son, perchance, who left his fond parent’s humble home reluctantly and tearfully, to make his way in the world, forgets, when fortune favors, to welcome his rustic mother to his own lux ury, with the same cordial embrace with which he left her in his Childhood home. Her dim old eyes, ; perchance, do not catch readily the meaningless cour-1 tesies of life; nevertheless, they look none the less ‘■ lovingly upon her child than when they watched over j his helpless infancy. Her withered hands may be! large and bony, and never have known a jewel; but I none the less gently did they -month the wean pil low, or bathe the hpated brow, in the dependent days of boyhood. Ah! she’s the same fond mother still; [ her aged and work-bent form, clad in rustic garb, ! conceals a heart full of never-dying love, and ready i for new sacrifice. And, thanks to the Great licing who gave us the commandment with promise, now and then there stands up a noble man, true to his inborn nature, who, throwing off the trammels of Fashion, however i wide the gulf which separates him, in the woi Id’s ! eye, from the humble poverty of his boyhood -who is not ashamed to love, before his fellows, the hum ble mother who gave him birth. “My mother —permit me to present her to you,” j said an elegantly-dressed, noble-looking young man to a friend for whom he had crossed a crowded draw ing room, with his aged parent leaning on his arm. \ There was a dead silence for full five minute.-. The j moral beauty of the picture pervaded every soul, and I melted away the frostwork from world-worn heart-'. ’Twas the old foreground of a fashionable summer resort, whither hosts had come, with all their selfish passions, to seek in vain for health and pleasure But here was a variation—a hit of truth to natun in the rnotly mingling of colors. From a little brown farm-house, punt in by forests, ’way up in the Granite State, dial young man had gone forth with brave heart and stalwart arm; strong, | like his native hills, he had already made a name for 1 himself. Polished circles opened for him, and gen lb* lips hade him welcome. Yet none the less care j fully did his manly arm support bis homely, totter- ‘ 1 ing old mother; none, the less softly and tenderly did \ jhe rail her-queer though she looked “my mother,''’ | amongst the proud beauties who bad striven for In- j ! favor. Her dress was antiquated, for die, good gifts : j of her son had been sadly mutilated by rustic hands; I j yet only one-heartless girl tittered, despite the broad* ; frilled cap and well-kept shtiw I. Her voi< < was rough, ■ i and often her expressions coar-c and inelegant. Used to the social mug at home, she asked for her neigh bor’s goblet at table, and wa- guilty of many like vulgarities. She was not an interesting woman, save in her vigorous age, and her beautiful love for her son. . Yet, for a week, the son wati bed over that mother, ; and gained for her kindness and deference, in the very face of fashion, walked with her, drove with ! her, helped her. like an infant, up a diflicult mouii t tain side ol twenty miles, humored her every caprice, ! and each day found some new frit rid, who-’- heart he i might thrill by those gentle words, “my mother."’ To him she wa- the gentle mother, who rocked him to sleep in childhood; and, true to the great com mandment she had taught him, he w,a- making the path smooth for her dependent year (>ne there wa-, in the gav throng, win>-< eye ilashed haughtily, as they rested on the b'niely, toil worn woman; but she was a noble - re, and truth .and right gained an instant victory over life-long pre judices, Quietly and elegantly she cm--. and the room, laid her snowy little hand, with such gentle, thrilling 1 touch, on the arm of her lover, and whispered a word • in his ear.

The importance of this phase of the subject, in duces 11- to recur to it train The acknowledged fact that in the discus-ion of all questions of morali ty, the Itihlo is the highest and surest authority to which to refer ; and the conviction, growing daily stronger, even t<> men of the world, that Itihle teach ing is the *u ust and safest harbinger of civilization and pence and happiness on earth; makes it imper ative that we understand this question fully, in the light of Bible truth. One thing should not he lost sight of, the Bible is 1 a book of principles, rather than of minute details. “Its method is not to map out every duty in a form universally and permanently obligatory. It does give definite expression to eel tain great comprehen sive duties; but its characteristic method is to pro pound principles, to exhibit moral truths, and to leave it to their plastic operation to shape the lives of those who receive them into such forms of virtue and godliness a- circumstances may suggest. It does not propose to give to man the hand to lead him blindfolded through the universe; it rather proposes to restore vision to him that tie may find his own way Every* Christian man has moral questions to solve almost daily, in the solution of which he has no help from express scriptural precepts.’’ And if this [controversy is ever to he settled by an appeal to the ’ Bible, then it must ho by an honest appeal to its i principles, and not by a loose and illusory appeal to I its examples, because it is admitted that wc use drinks, which were unknown in the times of the scriptural writers—a fact which puts ail the exam ples out of court--and even overlooking this differ ence, for the sake of argument, the examples record ed, whether of moderate use, or total abstinence, are only evidences of permitted list- or abstinence, and are valueless as guides to us, except so far as they accord with or differ from admitted Bible principle. With these preliminary remarks we proceed to in quire, which course—moderate use or total absti nence—is most in accordance with Bible principles? I and First. The Bibb* teaches the great duty of keep ing under the passions, appetites and tastes, in order !Io the soul’s growth in good nos-. Now, it is notori ous that the use of intoxicating beverages stimulates ♦he passions as well as the baser appetites and tastes. “A small quantity raises a spark, a lares quantity kindles a conflagration.” Many who have never been guilty of personal intoxication, have suffered and made others sutler from the undue stimulation of their passions by the use of intoxicating drinks ; or in the excitement produced thereby, have delight ed, if but in thought, in Ibe pleasures of sin, if they have not been led into actual transgression; and whilst it may be that h who <ihstt(ins t may not he I so good a man a- his moderate drinking neighbor in many other respects still is it manifest that, in this regard, he pursues a wiser and more scriptural course ; at least doing nothing, by the use of intoxi ; eating beverages, to stimulate the passion- which the I Bible requires him to reduce and control. Seen nil. —The Bible teaches the duty of avoiding temptation, as a precaution necessary for securing j the soul's health. As referred to in our previous ar | tide, we are taught to pray, “head us not into | temptation,’’ and Christ furthei commanded his dis ciples to ■mat.eh as well as to pray, that they enter not into temptation ; and the whole testimony of scrip ture is, that if we would grow wise and good, we must not caress the tempter nor dally in his wiles. Vow, il cannot be questioned, that Ibe drinking : usages of our times hit- at least c.ru ol the subtlest i agencies of temptation w ielded by I lie great de-.troyer ’ -of souls. Tlu-ir power- lie in the falsehood of their pretensions. They pretend to lie minister- of good; [they come bright with the bin -of friend-hip, and | are associated with all that i ■ joyful in life, asking permission to promote our happiness, enhance our pleasure, and heighten our activity Add to this their fatal power to generate an artificial mid deprav ed appetite, to make men lov- them, even when the conviction come- that ruin imi-i b<- the result, to love them still, and love them all tin- more Truly, intoxicating beverages are the most potent agent of temptation in our land.
