PRACTICAL ADVICE TO HOUSEKEEPERS, And others who may be in straitened circumstances. 1. Always rise early in the morning; it will make the work of the day go on more pleasantly. 2. Keep yourselves, your children, and your apartments clean it will tend to preserve your health. 3. Let your meals, however scanty, he prepared as comfortably as you can, and at the regular time; I a habit of order and method in the management of your house, will contribute to your happiness. 4. Let there be a place for every thing, and let every thing be in its place; this will save you a "reat deal of time and trouble. 5. Wastefulness may be practised even in poor families: this you should always be careful to avoid it will increase your sufferings. 6. You will avoid some expense, and also some disgrace to yourselves and your children, if you Strictly attend to the old proverb-" A stitch in time saves nine." 7. If you feel yourselves oppressed by labour or by trouble, never resort to the public-house, except to get a moderate quantity of liquor, to be drank at home. The practice of frequenting public-houses is the bane of poor people's comfort. The poor man's fireside, made cheerful by his wife's industry and cleanliness, is the place to afford him far more enjoyment of the real comfort of life, than any thing he can meet with in a. public-house, and will eost him much less. 8. Such of your children as are of a proper age, should always go to school. Let them have a little time for play and exercise; hut by no means suffer them to lounge about the street or road, where they should be in danger of picking up bad habits. When at home let them always be employed. 9. If by honest industry and frugality you or Tour children should become possessed of any sum of money, however small, you will consult your own and their advantage by laving it by; and more so, by placing it iL the Savings Bank, where it will in- crease by interest, and may, by that increase, pre- vent the degrading necessity of an application to the p irish for relief. 10. l! is of the utmost importance to your own peace, and to that of society, that you and your children should strictly adhere to truth, and on no consideration be induced to tell a iie. 1J. Avoid all disputes or quarrels \vith your neighbours; and on all occasions, when you feel s C, yourselves growing angry, endeavour to htild your tongues; but never practice profane swearing, or suffer your children to use bad words. 12. Let the Scriptures be read in your families, you will derive Consolation from the practice. It is I also your bounden duty and best interest to attend a, l-face of worship: you will there be instructed in ¡ your religious duty to your Creator, and in your moral duties to your fellow-creatures; the faithful discharge of which will ensure your happiness here and hereafter.

EXTRACT tRCM TIIE CORRESPONDENCE OF THE BRITISH AND FOKEIGN BIBLE SOCIETY. From the. Rev. Ebenezer Henderson, Bible Society's House, St. Petersburg, June 8, 1817. Yesterday waS celehrated the Fourth Anniversary of tne Russian Bible Society. Notwithstanding the unfavourable state of the weather, and the in- convenient situation of the Taurian Palace,^in one of the magnificent halls of which the meeting was held) it was computed to have been nearly three times more numerously attended than it was last year. The hall and adjoining room were quite crowded, and presented to the view of the Christian philanthropist a. scene of the most interesting and animating nature. Many of the most distinguished personages, both in church and state, honoured the meeting with their presence. I was peculiarly struck with the sight of a. group of graduated monks and professors from the Newsky monastery, and of a. number of military officers, high in rank, who appeared in another direction. Representa- tives of most of the nations for whom we are pre- paring editions of the Sacred Scriptures; such as, F-tissians, Armenians, Georgians, Greeks, Molda- vians,Finns,Poles, Esthonians, Li v o ii i a ii s, G c r i ii a n s, and French, were assembled to take part in the cere- mony, and listen to the interesting details of the pub- lication of the Word of God in their respective lan- guages. Among others, I observed two learned Russians, who have spent 15 years at the academy in Pekin, and are masters of the Chinese and Mand- shur languages. The scene naturally led my mind to that beautiful passage in the prophet Isaiah: Litt up thiue eyes round about, and bthold all these gather themselves together, and come to thee. Behold, these come from far: and, lo, these from the North and the West; and these from the land ofSinam!" May we not confidently cherish the hope, that, by the blessing of God on the progres- sive efforts of Bible .and Missionary Societies, Zion will, ere long, see this prophecy fuily accomplished ? Already have we beheld a little one become a thou- sand, and a small one a strung nation yea, and we may add "The Lord hath hastened it in his time." At half-past eleven o'clock, our Noble President took the chair, supported, on the right, by the Archbishops, Michael and Seraphim, and the Mi- nister of the Interior, and, on the left, by the Ro- mail Catholic Metropolitan Sestrensevich Bogush. The Prince opened the business of the day in a. tfllly excellent and appropriate speech, of consi- derable length; after which, his Excellency Mr. Papoff, came forward, and read the report, which was listened to with the most profound silence, by ¡ the numerous assembly. I know that you have f perused the former reports of the Russian Bible ) Society with the deepest interest; and I h* (Ia.Ú an opportunity of remarking, vyirb ..{1<it eagerness they have been read i» different countries of Europe; but I will venture to predict, that, when 'it it this document is published, all will allow that It far surpasses any of the preceding, in the richntss of its matter, the magnitude and importance of the subjects which it devetopes, and the genuine spirit of Christianity which n breathes throughout. It concludes with a solemn prayer, which made a powerful impression on the auditory, and called forth overflowing ejaculations to the Author of every good and pertect gift, for the continuance of his blessing on the instiution. It is absolutely impossible for me to describe to you the sensation which pervaded the whole assembly, on the con- clusion of this most interesting record. Their attention, which had been irresistably arrested for upwards of an hour, was now relieved, and gave way to expressions of the most laudable enthu- siasm in the best of causes. Each turned to his neighbour with smiles of joy and marks of admira- tion; and, from one end of the hall to the other, but one sentiment seemed to be uttered: "W hilt hath God wrought!" You will recollcct the very important resolution passed at the second meeting of the Committee of the Russian Bible Society, purporting, that they should not consider themselves to have attained the object of their institution, till they had pro- vided with a Bible, every family, and, if possible, every individual, in the Russian Empire. With what ardour they are pushing forward to the at- tainment of this object, and accelerating the com- plete redemption of their pledge, will be seen, when it is stated, that, from the establishment of the society to the present time, its Committee have either published, or are engaged in publishing, no fewer than forty-three editions of the Sacred Scrip- tures, in seventeen different languages, forming a grand total of copies. In the course of 1816, the Committee have completed, Copies. Slavonian Bibles. 10.\I()() Slavonian New Testaments 10,000 Finnish Bibles 5,000 French Bibles 5.000 Samogilian New Testaments. 5,000 The printing of the following editions, is either continued, or has been begun, in 1817. Copies. Slavonian Bibles 25),000 Slavonian New Testaments 5,000 Armenian Blhles 5.000 Arnjeiiiiiii Nevv Testametits 5.000 Greek Bibles 3.000 Greek New Testaments 5,000 Georgian New Testaments 2,000 Moldavian Bibles 5,000 Moldavian New Testaments 5,000 German Catholic Testaments 5000 Lettonian New Testaments 5,000 Dorpaiian Esthonian Testaments 5,000 Tartar New Testaments 2,0;>0 Gaspel of St. Luke, (extra copies) 2,000 — Psalms 2,003 Calrauc Gospel .2,000 The number of Bibles and Testaments, issued in the course of the year, amounts to 19,431 copies, which is only about 500 copies fewer than were issued the three former years put together. The expenditures are nearly in the same proportion, During the three years, 1813, 1814, and 1815, the expenditure amounted to 297,042 rubles, 47 co- pecs; in 1816, alone, 227,770 rubles, 73 copecs. Besides the above, preparations are making for stereotype editions of the Scriptures, in five dif- ferent languages they are in a course of transla- tion into the common Russian, Tartar, and Care- lian languagesv and measures are adopting for procuring translations into Turkish Armenian and Buriat Mongolian.* When the report was his excellency Mr. Turgeneff gave an account of the progress and success of the Bible Societies in other parts of the world, and expatiated particularly on the gigantic- operations of the British and Foreign Bible So- ciety. When the assembly were informed that you had expended, during the twelve years of the existence of your Society, nearly eleven millions of rubles, t they were perfectly struck with astonish- ment. Let us unite our notes of praise, and bless the Lord together; for it is His doing, and is won- derful in our eyes. Air. Henderson adds, in a postscript, that application lias lately been made by the Missionaries at Astrachan tor copies of the Sanscrit Scriptures, (printed at Sernmpore), for the use of Brahmins, and other Indians, resident in that city. who, on examining certain specimens, desired to be furnished with copies. A letter, written in Hebrew, and signed by six Ilabbies, has also been received, requesting Hebrew Bibles for about nine hundred Jewish families resident in the Kumak Country, on the western shore of ¡ the Caspian. "Here, observes Air. Henderson, is a fresh opening for the Hebrew Testament now printing in London." t A ruble is about one shilling. By attending to the following hints, forged shil- lings may be discovered at a glance :-00 the head side of the forgery, in the motto, the III. and D. G. are closer than on the good one; and at the end of the motto, on the forgery, two points thus are wanting. On the reverse side, the centre of the arms is higher on the forgery than the genuine; and at the joining of the garter at the bottom, the three imitation holes are raised instead of sunk on the forgery. t Guildhall, London.-A Fisherman caught.Richd. Hastings was charged with a robbery of the follow- ing singular nature;—J. Kirby, an officer, stated, that an early hour on Tuesday morning he was going his rounds, and upon entering Castle-court, Lawrence-lane, he observed the prisoner with a a rod, hooking something from the kitchen window of Messrs. Consterdine and Co. Upon approach- ing the'prisoner closely, he found him furnished with a fishing-rod, and a complete angling appara- tus. He had a small steel crook attached to the end of the rod, with which he contrived to open the kitchen window, and draw up three silver spoons and four saucers. In his defence the prisoner de- nied the robbery, but admitted he had lifted the articles up," lie was lully committed fnr trial.

I no sooner arrived than we sat. down to (line, And dinner once over we pus! round the wine, Till both of us got pretty gin And my friend who by no means of humour was barren.
