EffiG CHEAP SPARROW, , TeSt: \Are not five sparrows sold for two :| farthings, hud not one of them is forgotten before (fod?'WI,ulte sdl.> 0, Vou seethe Bible wittnotboHmiliedin the chbtcbof symbols, There-is hardly a boast, or bird or insect which has not been called to illustrate eomo divine truth—tho ox's pa- tience, the ant's industry, the Bpider's skill, tie hind's'surefootodiiess, the eagle's speid, the dove's gentleness,, and even the sparrow's meanness and insignificance. In Oriental countries none but the poorest people buy the sparrow and eat it, so very little meat is there on tho bones, and so voryipoor is IS, what there is writ, 1'he comfortable popula- tion would not think of touching it any moro , than you would think of eating a bat or a ; lamprol. Now, says Jesus, if God taken such good care of a poor bird that id not Worth a cent, won't ho care for you, an im- mortal y We associate God with revolutions, We I can see a divine purpose in tho disoovoiry of ; Amorico, in the invention of the art (^print- ing, in tho oxpbsuro of the u-uiipb wdor not, in the contrivance of the pecdlo-gun, in the ruin of aii Austrian or Napolbbhio despotism; but how hard iMs to see'God in the minute personal affaire of pur Uveal Wo think of God as malting a record b'f the starry host, but cannot realize tho Bible truth that He ifcnows how many hairs are on our head. It eeemsa grand thing that God provided* ood for hundreds of thousands of Israelitesin the desert; but we cannot appreciate the truth j that, whenasparrow is hungry, God stoops down and opens, its mouth and puts the seed in. We are struck with the idea that God fills tho universe with His presence; but can- not understand how He encamps ih the crystal ipal&ce of the dewdrop, or flnjk, room to stand, without being crowded, BW tweon the alabaster pillars or a_t)ond lily. We can See God in'tlie clouds. Can we see God in these flowers at our 'feet? We are apt to place God oh.some great stage—brtiy to do it^expeoliing Htm there to act Out His stupendous projects; but we-forget that the ilfe of a Cromwell; an Alexander, or aWash- ingtoh, or an archangel, is not more under divine inspection than your life or mine. Pompey thought there must be a mist over ; the eyes of God beo'&Use He so much favored ; .CoW-aiv But thore.is iio such mist. He sees ; everything, We say God's path is in the ; great waters.

I want totell you that God put into j operation all the influences:which led youto that particular \choice. Many of you are not • in the business that ybU expected to bo in; ,' .

'God saw your to'rapBVa'meni and all the env 1 \ cumsta'dcesby which you were surrounded, \ \ and I believe nine-tenths of you are in the wo*k you tfrebest fitted for. I hear a great raoket.in my wafch, and I findtbat the hands and tfiewheels and the springs are getting but of their places. I send.it down tothej'ewelersahd say: \Over- i hanl that watch, and teach the wheels and thespring and the hands to mind their own business.\ You-know a man having; a large estate.

If some dib, it is only that they may stand a't the out- post of Heaven to/greet ybu at ybur coming. You always will have frionds-rwftrnv' hearted friends, magnanimous frauds; and whensioknosscomosto your dwelling there will bo watohers; when trouble;conie»tbyote 'heart there will be sympathizers; when] death comes there will bo gentle flogbrs to'' close thi eyes and fold the harids,tthd gentle lips to tell of a resurrection,, Oh^e ave obihr passed; by a bodyrguard of friends!

Gckipity the Wretah who hasnoi any friends! He has hot behaved well. I remark, again, that God puts down the •limit of our temporal prosperity.. The world of finance seems 'to have no God itt it. You ran not tall whore a man will land, Theaf- fluent fall; tbe poor rise; the ingenious fail; the ignorant suoceed. An enterprise open- ing grandly shuts in bankruptcy, while but of the peat dug. up from some New England marsh the millionaire builds his fortune. The poor man thinks it is chance that keeps him down; the rich man thinks it is chance which hoists him; and they are both wrong. It is sp hard to realize that Gbd rules the nipnoy market, and has a hook in the nose of the stock gambler, and that ali'thb'cpSimer- bialrevolutions of the Vforld shallresult ; in the very best for God's dearbhildreU. My: brethren, do not kiok against the divine al- lotments. God knows just how much money itisbest for you to-lose. Ybu neV'ergain unless it tt best for you to gain.
