member of <strong>the</strong> church at that place. This<br />

privilege was granted him, and his relation<br />

lieing satisfactory, he was received into<br />

membership. But altboagb he gave up <strong>the</strong><br />

Methodist Discipline and doctrines, and<br />

embraced fully (?) those of <strong>the</strong> Baptist<br />

denomination, he did aot feel at liberty-to<br />

give up his baptism, having been ismerted,<br />

upon a profession of his faith, by <strong>the</strong> Rev.<br />

Mr. Humphries, a reguhir minister of <strong>the</strong><br />

Methodist connectiM.' This made a<br />

question for <strong>the</strong> Asroeiation, <strong>the</strong>n sitting,<br />

and to <strong>the</strong> body <strong>the</strong>re spared so much of<br />

gospel order in it, that Mr." Hutchinson was<br />

admitted by <strong>the</strong> consent of <strong>the</strong> body upon<br />

his baptism thus reived. But in <strong>the</strong> end<br />

it terminated unfortunately. Many were<br />

not well pleised with such a course, and<br />

<strong>the</strong>refore it led on to strife and confusion.<br />

However, as be was an eloquent man, and<br />

truly fervent in spiriC, many-were conciliat-<br />

hopes were entertained that miicli good<br />

would be efiected through hie inrtramental-<br />

" If We Knew.*'<br />

The frjgments of <strong>the</strong> following lines were<br />

round oa <strong>the</strong> mangled body of a yocng Chris-<br />

tian just budding into a useful manhood rho<br />

was accidemally killed in a mill:<br />

If w« koew when walking thoughtieu<br />

Through <strong>the</strong> crowdeU, noisy way<br />

That some pearl of wondrous whiienesr<br />

Close beside our pathway lay,<br />

Wa would pause where aow we hasten,<br />

We would often look around.<br />

Lest our careless feet should trample<br />

Some rare jewel in tbe ground.<br />

If we knew that forms were fainting<br />

For <strong>the</strong> shade that we should fling<br />

If we knew what lips were parching '<br />

For <strong>the</strong> water we should bring;<br />

Wo would baste with eager footsteps.<br />

We would work with wiUing hands.<br />

Bearing cujs of cooling water.<br />

Planting rows of shading palms.<br />

If we knew when friends around us<br />

Closely press to say good-by,<br />

Whick among tbe Ups that kiss us,<br />

First should 'neath <strong>the</strong> daisies lie,<br />

We would clasp our arms around <strong>the</strong>m,<br />

Looking on <strong>the</strong>m thro' our tear? '<br />

Tender words of lore eternal,<br />

We would whisper in <strong>the</strong>ir ears.<br />

If we knew what lives were darkene.l<br />

By some thoughtless words of ours,<br />

Which had exer lain among <strong>the</strong>m<br />

Like <strong>the</strong> frost among <strong>the</strong> flowers;<br />

Oh, with what sincere repentings,<br />

Wiih what anguish of regret.<br />

While our eyes were OTerllawing,<br />

Would we cry, forgive! forget'<br />

If we knew, alas! and do we<br />

Erer care or seek to know,<br />

Whe<strong>the</strong>r bitter herbs, or roses,<br />

In our neighbors' gardens grow T<br />

God forgiTe us I lest hereafter<br />

Our hearts break to hear Him sav<br />

CarelsJs child, I never knew you, "'<br />

and in turn, requeated me to baimoni^ <strong>the</strong><br />

parable of <strong>the</strong> huabaadmen. "Jn tfnt^ xxL<br />

' When tbe lord <strong>the</strong>refore of <strong>the</strong> viiteyard<br />

him <strong>the</strong> fruiU in <strong>the</strong>ir seasons' Notice in<br />

this that our Savior asks ^e quMtion,<br />

which u answered by <strong>the</strong> JewK Ma^ re-<br />

cords <strong>the</strong> same parable in <strong>the</strong> Iteginn^g of<br />

<strong>the</strong> 12ih chapter, in <strong>the</strong> 9th ve.-se, of which<br />

we find <strong>the</strong> Savior asks <strong>the</strong> saiie quettion,<br />

but answers it hinwelf. and tot <strong>the</strong> jews,<br />

as m Mat<strong>the</strong>w. Luke xx. 15: * What 4erc-<br />

fpre shall <strong>the</strong> lord of <strong>the</strong> vineyyd do,unto<br />

<strong>the</strong>m? [Verse 16J: He shad com< and<br />

destroy those husbardmen. an^ shall! give<br />

<strong>the</strong> vineyard to o<strong>the</strong>rs. And whenllhey<br />

heard it, <strong>the</strong>y said, God forbid.' W« see<br />

that Mat<strong>the</strong>w makes <strong>the</strong> Jews' answet <strong>the</strong><br />

question. Mark makes Jeaus answer ife and<br />

Lake makes <strong>the</strong> Jews oppoee'it.<br />

reconcile this, Bro. Lev " j -<br />

We have quoted Bro. R at iength,;and<br />

here is <strong>the</strong> harmony. In <strong>the</strong> fiat plac4 onr<br />

Lord jiuts <strong>the</strong> question to his OB>onente, so<br />

that <strong>the</strong>ir own answer would te testimony<br />

againjt <strong>the</strong>msdves, tat <strong>the</strong>y pilrceiv^ not<br />

<strong>the</strong> purpose of <strong>the</strong> Lord in <strong>the</strong> pirable, and<br />

answered according to justice ' and i^ht,<br />

which was tbe judgment of Chr|»t on 4em<br />

and <strong>the</strong>ir people. |<br />

In Mark 9th verse, and Luke ^IGih wrse,<br />

is <strong>the</strong> Lord's declaration and judjment, while<br />

<strong>the</strong> records of <strong>the</strong> evaagelist ad*iit ofJtar-<br />

The Society has made a good beginniog, and !<br />

we are hopeful of <strong>the</strong> future. The Board of j<br />

and be thoroughly organized for work. The ,<br />

who'e responsibility of <strong>the</strong> Society rests upon ^<br />

<strong>the</strong> Board of Managers, and <strong>the</strong> Society<br />

A Priest's Practical Joke.<br />

It is not often that a prisoner is brought<br />

to trial upon <strong>the</strong> charge laid against Fa<strong>the</strong>r<br />

Baronius, when he appeared before <strong>the</strong> tri-<br />

bunal at Treviglio, in Lombardy, last week<br />

This worthy ecclesiastic was accused of put-<br />

ting a strong emetic into <strong>the</strong> wine which<br />

some of bia bro<strong>the</strong>r priesU were about to<br />

use in <strong>the</strong> cnlebration of mass, and his only<br />

defense was that be wanted to play a prac-<br />

tial joke upon two of <strong>the</strong>m who had recently<br />

come to Treviglio They belonged to en<br />

opposite school of <strong>the</strong>ology, and Fa<strong>the</strong>r Bar<br />

onius, who seemed surprised that his appli-<br />

cation of emetics to religion should have<br />

caused so great a scandal, thought that if he<br />

could not convert Uiem he might at leaU<br />

punish Oiem. It would have been useless<br />

for him to have denied tbe main facts of<br />

<strong>the</strong> accusation, as tbe dose was so strong<br />

that one of <strong>the</strong> vicUma waa U1 for a week,<br />

while <strong>the</strong> doctors at Treviglici, poaaesaing a<br />

very elementary knowledge of <strong>the</strong> healing<br />

art, thought tb&t he had been poisoned, and<br />

submitted him to so severe a diet that he<br />

WM reduced to a skeleton. The offending<br />

of misdemeanor and sacrilege, and was sen<br />
