A YANKEE STORY. I have litarn folks *y tfcfet t |, e uimtnm \vs contrary ; well they is a leetle so, but if yo i manage ’em rile, haul in here, and lei ’em out there, you can drive ’em along wiiuoot whip or spur, jest which wav you want ’em to go. \N hen I lived down to E’torn, there was a good many fust rate gals down there, hut l did’nt take a liktin to any on ’em, till Squire Cummin;. nun down there to live. The squire had a mighty putty ‘darter. 1 sed sum of the gals was hut rale, but N nice Cummins was fust rate, and a leeile more. There was many dressed liner and looked grander, hut there was smoothing jam about Nance, that they could’nt hold a candle to. If a teller seed Iter wunce, he could’nl look at another gal for a week. I took a likitt to her rite off, and we got as thick as thieves. We had used to go to the same tneelin, and sot in die same pew. It took me to find the sarins ami hints for Iter, and we’d swell ’em out in manner ’sltockin to har dened sinners ; and then we’d inosev hum together, while (he gals and fellers kept a look it) on, as though they’d like to mix in. I’d always stay to supper, and the wav she cnoil make injmi cakes, said the way I wood slick ’em over with molasses and put ’em away was nothin to nobody. She was dreadful civil tew, always getlin somethin nice tor me. I was up to the Imb iu love, and was going for it like a lofcymotive. Well, things went on litis way loi a spell, till she thought she bad me tight enough. Then she began to show off kinder independent like. When I’d go to the meetin’ there was no room in i!ih pew ; when she’d come out she’d slreake off with another t hap, and leave me snekin my fingers at the door. In stead of stick.in to me as she used to do, site got cut’.ia round with all the fellers just ,;s if she cared nothing about me no more, none whatsoever. 1 got consider., ably ri eii, and lliort I moot as well cum to have i: out wi:h her; tlier was a bull krr.-u of fellers there. They seemed iniiy %nict til! I .vent in, then she got talk in a!! Rftjbiner of nonsense, sed nothing to me, and darned little ot thill. I tried to keep rnv-djmdft- du'.vi„ ; but it twar ti’t no use-f^ 1 Kept movin about as if I Haul a pin iu rny Dowsers. I sweat as if i had been ihradiin. Y!y collar hung down as if it bad been hung over my stock to dry. I couldV.l stand it, so cleared out as quick as I could, lor I see';’ tuas no use to say nothing to her; 1 went sirate to lied, ami llioi the matter mt r a spell, thinks I that gai is j;:; t id’ try in me ; taint no use of our playing possum; I'i! take the kink nut of her; if I donl fetch her out of that high grass use me for sassage meat. I (team tell of a boy, vntnee, that got to skew I late on Sunday ntortiin ; master ses, you tnrntl sleepiu creator, what kept you so late ? Why, ses the boy, it is so ever -1 still slippery out, i could’tgct along no how, every step l took forward, I went two steps backward, and I could’nt have got here at all, if I liad’nt turned back to go toilier way. Now that’.-. j' j st my case. I have been pultin after that gal a coiisid eralile lice. Now, thinks I, Ili go totliv rr wav —she's been sliiing of me, now I’il slite her—what’s Si< for the goose is sasv for the gander. Well, I went no more to Nancy’s. Next Sabbath ! slick ed myself up, and l deiv say, when 1 go! my fixius on, l took the shirt tail clean olf of anv specimen of (he human nature in our parts. About meetin time oli I put to Elth.tin Dodge’s. Patience Dodge was as nice a gal as you’d see tsvixt here nod v nmler, any more than she wasn’t jest like Nancy Cummings. Ephrarn Massey had u*ed to go to her; lie was a clever feller, but was dreadful jelus. Well, I went to meetiii with Patience, and sot right afore ; I didn’t set niv eyes on her ii!l at'lcr meetin; she bail a feller with her who had a blaziti red head, tnd legs like a pair of compasses; she had . face as long as grace afore a th.mksgivio dinner, I knowed who she wuj-'binkin about, and ’twaru’t the chap ‘Viili ‘the redhead neither. Well, I got boeiu P Hence itbottl a spell. Kept niv eve oil Nance, s-eil bow the cat wusjiim pin, sin* didn’t cut about like she did, and looked rather solemnly ; she’d g’in her two eyes to kiss and make up. I kept ii up until • like to have got into a mess ü botit Patience. The critter tliot I was goin after her good, and got as proud as a lame turkey. Won day Eli*com down to our place looking as ratliy as a mill ishv officer on a trainiti day; look here, ses*lie, Si tli Stokes, as loud a, ami di thunder clap. I II be darn (I———. Hal lo! s-s I, what’s hr die l Why ses lie, I come down to have satisfaction about Patience Dodge; here I’ve been corliu Iter ever since lost gr.iss year, and she was jest as good mine fill you come a go ‘• after bar, and now I can’t touch her ®*-.t forty pole. Why, ses I what on nothti* you talkin about ? 1 aim got bad, tliefj with your gal, but spose I about. If thoiiin for you to get wolfv it aim my fault ;*vs takin a likitt to me, her, taint her stub ; z (akin a likitt to lik'n to one another, taV,.' ve ’ ve >aken a you muy suppose it is; hupoc fault, as mighty taken with her, an yoi? 1 , 8,1 ’ ,I ’ her for me, so yon hadn’t ought •avage about nothin. Well, ses he, (rah* or cooled down,) I am the unluckiest thing in creation. I went totlier day to a place where there was an old woman died of the hots or some such disease, and they were sellin ouf her things. Well, ses he, there was a thundering big chist of drawers full of all sorts of truck, so I but it and thot I made a snec, but when 1 come to look at ’em there want nothin in it worth a cent except an old silver thim ble, and that was all rusted up, so i sold it for !es titan I give for it; well llioti the | eliap that hot it tuck it home, heered ! something rattle, broke the old chist, am) found lots of gold and silver iu it, in a false bottom I bad’nt seen. Now if I’d tuck that chist hum, I’d never found that money, or il'7 dill they'd been all coun terfeit, and 7’d been tuck up for pussin oil ’em. Well 7j>sl told Patience about it when site rite up and called me a darned fool. Well, ses 7, Etc that is hard, but never you mind that, jest go on, yon can get her, and when you do gel her you can file the rough edges off just as you please; that tickled him; it did, and away lie went a leetle better pleased. Next day, doun 7 went. Nancy was all alone. 7 axed her if the squire w?s in, she said he vvnrnt. Cos, ses 7, (makin believe 7 wanted him,) our colt sprained his foot, and 7 cum to see if the squire wont lend me bis mare ta go to town.

Induction and theory have well nigh paralized their powers in fruitless at tempts to solve ‘lie mighty problem, while science has been looking with searching scrutiny into the structure of all living organisms to detect, if possible, that la test principle which constitutes the premi um mobile of their functions. But the question was too profound for a sensuous philosophy, the : pioblem too difficult for the unaided ingenuity of man. Light was needed from that inner and upper world, whence all genuine truth descends.; and that light has ’ll length been reoeiv- ] etl. The reader will please ob.-erve the follow iiiir points: 1. All life proceeds from the Lord. — The Lon! alone has life in himself; lie is >elf-existing,siibstance—the eternal, sole, infinite, inexhaustible fountain of life, and consequently, no created being has any other than derived and momentarily de pendent life, fnasmttch as life is an em anation from the Deity, it is not, proper ly speaking created. Creation is predi cable ol the organs and receptacles into which lile flows, but not of life itself.— That which is uncreated and infinite is the Divine itself. From this principle man cannot be formed, for thus he would be divine in himself, but he may be formed of things created and finite, in which the Divine may dwell, and to which il may communicate its life, and this by heat and light, or love and w isdom, from itself as the sun of the spiritual world. This may be compared to germinations on the earth, which cannot be Inrmed from the essence itself of the natural sun, but from the cre ated things of which the ground consists in which the sun, by its heat and light, can inwardly dwell, and to which it can communicate, as it were, life. So,also, angels and men do not live from themselves, hut are only recipients of life from the Lord. The conception ofa child from its lather is not a concep tion of life, bill only of the li si rudunen tal form for the reception ol life, to which may be successively added, hy the opera lion of life thus received, the substances and materials adapted to the full devel opment of the form thus begun. 2. Life , in its inmost form is love. — The div ine life is in he divine love. But the divine love is manifested through * it medium of divine wisdom; and hence life, also, in all its degr&s and forms, flows down from its divince source, according tn the laws of divine order. The will and the iindeistanding in man are the recep tacles Dto which the divine life flows.— Life received into the will, is the origin of love and affection ; in the understand ing, it is thought, or the perception of truth. The will is the first receptacle of life. In it every desire and r.flectioft orig inates. But the life of tile fviil descends also imp the understanding. The affec tions are formed into thoughts. And hence, love is the life of the spirit, the moving principle of every emotion and perception. A man thinks of those tilings which lie loves. His thought are on spir itual or worldly things, according to the natiirp of his anWlions, j The life of the natural body is also de j rived from the interior of the spirit. This is evident from the fact that the will con trols the muscular movements. The af- sections present tlietuselvps visibly iti the face. Thought beams from the eye, ot flows forth through the organs of speech. All the organs of the body are thus adap ted to the use of the spirit. They were first formed by the power of the living spirit, and by virtue of that power com tinually operating they retain their t’oiu.s, and subserve their respective uses. The whole body is one complex organ for the use of the spirit. From that spirit it de rives its life, and for that spirit exists. The truth of this principle may be seen by adverting to a sudden shock of disap pointment falling upon a dominant or ab sorbing love. The blow falls upon the love principle, and for a moment the spirv it refuses to furnish the body with its ac customed life. The suspense of that mo ment is fatal. Death, in strict truth, is not the destruction ol lif , for life being an emanation from the Divine, can never he destroyed. That life is extinguished by I death is an apparent, not a real, truth. The real truth is, that the life of the s;:irit ceases to decent] into tlte hotly. The do pariure of the spirit is the vvitht’ravvl of ! e from the body—not fit's extinction.— ‘1 lie spirit lives on. his soil a form of its own love—a permanent receptacle ot life from the iiiexhaiisulde Fountain. The views here presented in regard to the origin and nature of life, though seen to he ti tie, are not generally acceptable.! Men do not like to regard themselves as! mere receptacles, or organic forms of life. The idea of living, feeling, thinking, aud j acting from tlieuiM Ives, is more congeni al to their uff ctioits, more in accordance with the promptings of self-love. And this idea is easily confirmed i>y external appearances, which scent to indicate .that man lias life in himself, instead of being a mere receptacle of life. To the sensuous nnm.l,.iyyiei) filled with a proud self-love, these appearances have all ybeJprce and authority of truth. The real u difimigln be seen, but there is no disposition to search for it, nor even to look at it when presented. Most men readily acknowl-. edge that life is originally derived frotrr 1 the Lord, but they do not love to think of it as perpetually and momentarily flow ing from that divine source. 3. Life is manifested in different de grees. —It is important to observe, that it is one and the same life, only more or less pecfectly manifested, that pervades the angelic, the human, the animal, and even the vegetable worlds. Every beast,bird, fish, reptile, a. a insect, has it its peculiar sensual or corporeal love, whose habitus] lions is the brain; and by means of this: Itive, life, in a modfirul aud imperfect tie- | gree, t! ms into its bodily senses. But the beast having no spiritual organism, a bove ifie sensual, which is immediately connected with the corporeal form, it is only a temporary recipient of lift. Its existence is terminated hy death. There is also an influx of life from the Lord, ! through the spiritual world, into evesy seed and plant of the vegetable kingdom. This is that living principle which con tinually nets upon tlic piiinative forms ol seeds. It causes’ them to vegetate and bring forth their fruits. It may seem like a strange announces ment that one and the same vita) princi ple manifests itself in so great a variety of forms ; that the life of an insect or a plant is continualy flowing down ftotvi the divine love and wisdom, and, in its inmost principle, is essentially the same with that of an angel or a man. There are, however, many analogous facts even in the natural world—as, when the same substance appears under various forms. Carbon, for example is seen in the form of charcoal, cotton, and the dta- i mond. So aLo life, in proceeding from the Lord, descends through several suc cessive degress, till, on reaching the low est, its tit mif‘stations are so changed that we scarcely recognize it is the same prin ciple. Ev en man himself i< so formed as tn tie capable ol receiv ini’ hie in three dif ferent degress, and so unlike are these suc cessive manifestations that they entirely change the rpri-ual form. The lowest of | these degrees is the sensual, by which tuan is closely allied to tlte inferior uni. I mals, and in fact becomes very much like j them, in proportion as lie yields to this lower form of life. Tlte next is the nr linnal, by which man il superior to lit* animal 11 ilies, ns by means of it he cun t(link ami will what is good and lute, and control titc seti-iml, voluntarily restrain ing its appetencies, which the beasts are t*itorly incapable of doing. And above and within (his there is a more interior re ceptacle of life, into wltn it the divine lifi immediately flows. By this interior form man is made capable of being conjoined to tin* Lon), and living eternally. Man lives really and truly only in pro portion as the more interior receptacles of life are open to the inflowings of the di vine love and wisdom. He is regenerat.. ed and made truly alive, just so far as all the affections of his natural life are res trained and rendered subordinate to the love of goodness and truili. The good, inly, can be properly said to live. It is true, the wicked, evetf the spirits of hell, are firms re< ipient of life front the Lord. Tiit-y are thereby retained in existence. But the life thus received, being pervert ed tails to bring forth tlte living fruits of heavenly love. Instead of these, there are the direful forms of every evil. For all tlte manifestations of life are accotding to the lorms of tlte recipient subjects, just as one plant produces food, and another'p>i* son, each according to its own nature, liiuttgli both are nourished from the same earth, and sustained by the heal and light irnmthe smite son.
