SBPTBMBER, 1844,
THE YEAR OF JUBILEE IN JUDJEA.
What is that deep, loud, glad sound on the great day of atonement—that sound of joy mingling with the tears and confessions of the Israelites on the day in which God had commanded them to afflict their souls ? It is the sound of the silver trumpet, (Lev. xxv. 9), announcing the year of Jubilee; for it is Tisri, the month of September, the first month of the fiftieth year*. Look how the tear of joy unites with the tear of sorrow. “To-morrow we shall be free from our bondage,” is that inward thought of many a heart. The father thinks of his family whom he shall then embrace again; the children that their father will come back to them again; and many who have been long away from their cottages in the village; and from the lands and fields of their inheritance, think that to-morrow they shall return to them. Oh the joy which the sound of that trumpet has given! As if the bright sun-light had streamed forth from dark clouds, so are the faces of the sorrowing changed. And many a boy, and many

a girl shouts and sings, “ To-morrow, and father will be home again; to-morrow I shall work in our own garden again, and run in our own field, and live in our own house, and sleep again in my own little room.” Oh it is a beautiful year, the year of Jubilee! and the sound of its arrival is all the more welcome because it is heard on the day of sorrow.
And now the first streaks of morning light are shining upon the day of release, and the whole land of Judaea is awake, and songs, and prayers, and shouts of joy are filling the air. It is a blessed day? Look at that family, with smiles and tears, standing round that rich man’s door. They are come for their father. He has been six years a bond-servant, and now he will he their own father again. How they meet! how they feel! how they weep ! They hang upon his neck; they clasp his knees; they do not speak; their tears speak for them. He was a good man, although he was poor; and many losses had compelled him to sell his house and land, and then to sell himself. But now (Lev. xxv. 10,41) he is to be freeagain, and to have his house and land again. There stands his master; he also is a good man. He does not refuse to part with his faithful servant, for he remembers the word of his God, and thinks that his own father was a bondman in Egypt, and God redeemed him ; and his heart is filled with love to the God who has pity upon the poor bond-slave; and his loss is more than made up to him when he looks at the joy of that reunited family. There stands the goodly offering which he gives as (Deut. xv. 12—15) a parting


THE YEAll 0E JUBILEE IN JUD2EA. 77
gift to liis faithful servant—the sheep and the goats, and the wheat and the wine. With his own hands he gives them, making them doubly precious by the kindness with which he gives them. Now they weep and part, and the happy family go once more to their own home. Oh, the prayer of that morning which the good man offered to the God of his deliverance! Angels listened to it and would have wept, if angels could weep. Thus were many, many families made glad on that day. The poor debtor was freed from his debts ; and every one had his own again; and every one was free; and (Ex. xxiii. 10, 11) there was no labour and no care throughout all that year, for they ate of that which grew of itself; and the poor and the rich mingled together, and they had all things common; and man and beast had rest and refreshment; for it was the Sabbath of the Lord, a holy year, a year consecrated to God, wherein they might have leisure to think of Him; and might learn that all things come from Him, that Judtea was His peculiar land, that they were His peculiar people, and that He watched and cared for them as no earthly king ever did or could. Oh, it was a happy, happy year, the year of Jubilee*! Each of its moments taught the Jews that God is love. Oh, happy people ! if they had known their own happiness, and not neglected their heavenly King. W. H. D.
* We trust our young friends will read carefully the chapters of the Bible to which we have referred, and which give an account of this festival. Sunday-school teachers wall find it a profitable exercise to explain them to their classes.

THE SPIRITUAL JUBILEE.
The Jubilee in Judaea, which has been described in the former paper, only celebrates the freedom of the body; there is a higher Jubilee, the Jubilee of the soul, when it is set free from the chains of guilt, and sin, and fear. How great has been the joy, even on earth, which some Christians have felt, when brought into “ the glorious liberty of the children of God!” Dr. Conyers, one of those eminent servants of Christ whom God raised up to bless the world in the days of Whitfield and Wesley, is a remarkable example of this. He became a minister before he was converted, as, alas! many do. One sabbath, while reading the lesson for the day, the words of Paul, (Eph. iii. 8), “ The unsearchable riches of Christ,” made a deep impression upon his mind. He was led to think thus, “ The unsearchable riches of Christ! I never found, I never knew, that* there were unsearchable riches in Him!* He saw that his experience and views of Christ must be quite different from those of the Apostle. At the same time he had deep convictions of sin, and was greatly troubled by the thought, that, if he was wrong in his views of Christ, hq must be also wrong in his preaching, and have misguided his flock to the great danger of their souls.
After many days of deep sorrow, the sighing of the prisoner was heard, and the hour of release came. On the 25th of December, 1758, while walking in his room, he was led to think of these two passages of Scripture, (Heb. ix. 22), “ With-


THB SPIRITUAL JUBILEE.

ont shedding of blood there is no remission of sin,” and (1 John, i. 7) “ The blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” Placing his hope of pardon and acceptance with God on the atoning blood and righteousness of Jesus Christ, the darkness and sorrow of his mind immediately passed away, and he became the partaker of unspeakable joy.
“ I went up stairs and down again,” said he, “ backwards and forwards in my room, clapping my hands for joy, and crying out, I have found Him, I have found Him, Lha/oe found Him whom my soul loveth; and for a little time, as the Apostle said, whether in the body or out of it, I could hardly tell*.’’ This was the jubilee of that good man.
It is Jesus Christ who proclaims to the world this highest Jubilee, the fruit of His own death, and who sends His ministers to blow its silver trumpet. He says, (Is. lxi. 1), “ The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because He hath anointed me .... to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” For fifty years have the servants of Christ, sent forth by the London Missionary Society, been publishing these glad tidings in the South Sea Islands, in Africa, in India, in China; and now we have a year of Jubilee, a Jubilee of Jubilees, a year to be specially holy to the Lord, consecrated to holy thanksgivings for

the past, to holy purposes for the future, and to new and generous offerings for the rescue of them who are still the slaves of Satan. Beloved young friends! you will rejoice with us in our joy; you will mourn with us in our humiliations; you will unite in our songs of praise; you will enter into our plans; you will help us now as you nobly helped us for the Missionary Ship; and you will give yourselves to work and to pray henceforth with new zeal for the Jubilee of the world, that glad resurrection morning when the last captive shall have been rescued ; and when a multitude which no man can number, gathered out of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, shall be welcomed by the shouts of angels into the heavenly world. We earnestly hope and pray that you may be found among them, and all your brothers and sisters with you!
Receive a word of caution. Be humble while you are joyful. We cannot afford to buy even your joyful efforts at the expense of your humility. And that you may be humble, let all you do be done “ in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!” Let love to Him be the motion, and faith in Him the spring, of all your actions. And remember! oh remember! this year and every year, His own words, “ Without me ye can do nothing.” ----------— W. H. D.

WHAT IS THE NEW MISSIONARY SHIP LIKE? 81
WHAT IS THE NEW MISSIONARY SHIP LIKE?
My dear little friend,
Can you answer this puzzling question? Think a moment; picture to yourself the splendid “ John Williams” which has lately left us for a distant land; its masts, its rudder, its beautiful sail. What is it like? Are you tired of guessing, and want me to tell you. Well, then, it is very like you. Like me ! perhaps you exclaim. How can a vessel he like me ?
You are just setting out in life, and all may appear gay and smiling, but soon you will find that this is a world of change and trial. Wave after wave of trouble may roll over you; but if Christ be your friend and walk with you on this stormy sea, your bark will ride securely over every billow. You have set sail, but whither are you going? Will heaven or hell be your landing-place ? You are steering to one of these two. Ah ! which is it ? Do you feel anxious to know? then, ask yourself this question. Is the Saviour my pilot, the Bible my compass, God’s fear my ballast, and a good hope through grace my anchor sure and steadfast ? If your heart can humbly and joyfully answer—yes, then, my dear young friend, you have nothing to fear. The tempest may howl, and the waves rise high; but you have One on board, who can say in the darkest hour, “ Peace, be still!” And what can you do for Him who has done so much for you ? Go, like this gallant ship, carrying the flag of Gospel peace to

those who know not Jesus. Spread the tidings of a Saviour’s love, and shew your attachment to His cause by a life of cheerful, self-denying zeal. But does conscience whisper, that it is not thus with you ? Oh! listen to its voice. Come as a poor sinful child to Him who hath said, Those that seek Me early shall find Me.” Ask Him to guide and guard you through life, and then heaven will he your haven of eternal rest.

SOMETHING! MORE TO BE DONE.
Dear friends,
We are told that the purchasing of the “John Williains” reflects great honour upon the juvenile friends of the Missionary Society; hut will it not be a lasting disgrace to us, if we now throw her on the income of the Society? Shall we incur this disgrace ? No, never! The ship is ours, we bought her; and let us s’;ew we mean to keep her, and will subscribe every farthing necessary for her. A penny-3-month subscription has been proposed, but, I think, a much less sum will do, for we must not take from our contributions to the general fund of the Society to give to our skip; and, then, the Jubilee is fast approaching, and wp must begin to gave our pence for the Juvenile Jubilee Fund. Now, just look how easily we can support our Ship without interfering with any thing else: if the 150,000 purchasers of this Magazine will subscribe a farthing a month, it will raise a sum annually of 1875?., which (if

LETTER FROM REV. THOMAS KELLY.
(To the Editor of the Juvenile Missionary Magatine). Dear Sir,
Though your letter was delayed owing to circumstances explained fo you, so as to reach me only a few days ago, yet I resolved, with the Lord’s help, to attempt the task, which, overrating, as I think, my competence, you invited me to perform.
I feel it as a privilege to he identified with your little “ Magazine,” as a publication calculated to be eminently useful, and especially in the department to which it is more immediately appropriated.
I am not a poet, nor a musician, in any sense of those words, but a very humble one ; and, therefore, deprecate the criticism of those whose standard of judgment is at all a high one, Wishing to be considered simply as one who is desirous that any little portion of talent, in either of the departments referred to, he may possess, maybe dedicated to the Lord’s service, and be made instrumental in promoting the interests of His kingdom,
I am m'T dear Sir, yours, in the Lord, Thomas Kelly.

ADDRESS TO THE YOUNG ON THE JUBILEE
OF THE LONDON MISSIONARY SOCIETY. My DEAR CHILDREN,
" The year of Jubilee is come—Hallelujah ! the year pf Jubilee is come?’ So shouted the Jewish slaves, as they woke on the happy morning and heard the trumpets blowing, which told them that their deliverance was come. This grand holiday was kept every fiftieth year; (see Leviticus, xxv.); and since then, every fiftieth year in the history of an individual, or society, may be called a Jubilee. It is now forty-nine years since the Missionary Society, which you have heard so much about, was formed in London. The great and good men who founded it are all gone to heaven; but the Society remains. Let us all say, Thanks be to God for putting it into their hearts to set up such an Institution. Think of the good it has already done. It has sent the Gospel to the islands of the South Sea, where multitudes have cast away their idols and become Christians. It was on one of these islands, called Erromanga, where good Mr. Williams was murdered. It has also, sent Missionaries to South Africa, one of whom, the excellent Mr. Moffat, you lately saw and heard in this country; it has sent other Missionaries to the poor negroes in the West Indies, who now, you know, are no longer slavey and to India, and China, and other places. What a glorious institution, then, is a Missionary Society ! Are you not glad that you live in an age and a country where such a society exists ?
Well, the Directors of the Missionary Society have determined to keep this Jubilee year of its existence. And how ? By having sermons preached, and prayer-meetings held, and juvenile meetings, and public meetings, and speeches delivered, and tracts circulated; and, in short, having the whole country filled with the sound,


ON THE JUBILEE.
87
“ The Jubilee is come ! the Missionary Jubilee is come!” Be sure you go to those meetings that are about to be held. AH this is in order to raise a great sum of money to send out mor$ Missionaries; for we want a thousand times as many as we already have. Dear children, think what a dreadful thing it is to be a poor Pagan, to worship blocks of wood and stone, cut into all kinds of hideous shapes, for gods ; to have no Bible, no Saviour, no Sabbath, no comfort in life, no hope in death, no heaven hereafter 1 How you should pity the heathen!
Now, the Directors want you to help them during this Jubilee year—they want you to say, The year of Jubilee is come, and we must keep it pot only by praying for the Heathen, but by raising money to send them Missionaries.” Yes, this is the way to keep the Jubilee year. It will be a poor Jubilee, if a great sum of money is not raised. Perhaps you will ask what the Directors are going to do with the money ? I will tell you. To send more Missionaries to China. Open your maps— see what a vast empire China is ! It contains more than three hundred millions of people. God has now opened a way into China for our Missionaries. What a glorious thing it seems for a child to be able, and allowed, to raise money to send Missionaries to China! Thence comes our tea—what a blessed exchange it is to send the Gospel for their tea! To send more Missionaries to Ipdia. Open your maps again, and look at that vast peninsula in the Indian Ocean, called Hindustan; God has permitted that great country to come under British dominion. Why, there are one hundred and fifty millions there, and all idolators or Mahommedans. Shall we not keep Jubilee by sending more Missionaries there, to the land of that dreadful idol Juggernaut ? And will you not help ? would you not like to put Jesus Christ in the place of Juggernaut ? And then there are thousands and tens of thousands of children in heathen countries who need


88
JUVENILE MISSIONARY MAGAZINE.
to be taught the way to heaven. And will not you assist in that ? This is especially your work. The youth of Britain should help to send the Gospel to the youth of heathen lands. Think well of this point. And, then, many of our Missionaries die in consequence of the heat of the climate, and leave widows, and fatherless children, who come back, sad and desolate, to this our country. The Directors want to make a better provision for them ; and will you not endeavour to comfort these sorrowful mothers and bereaved children ? What a sweet and blessed way it will be for you to keep Jubilee, by raising money for the widows and fatherless children of Missionaries. You who have fathers and mothers should collect money out of gratitude ; and you who have not, out of sympathy.
There are many other purposes to which the money will be applied; but it is enough to mention these. Come forward, then, come forward, beloved young friends! I invite you, the Missionary Society invites you, your parents invite you; yes, God invites you—let all come forward and keep Jubilee. What a glorious thing it is to help to convert the world to God ; to fill all the earth with the knowledge of God; to bring on the latter-day glory !
Consider what children can do! Above a hundred thousand children take in this Missionary Magazine! O how I rejoice that you children have tfhch a Magazine ! Now, if each one of you were to raise, during the year, only 5s. each, and many of you can raise much more, there is no less a sum than £*25,000 ! This is a good way to keep Jubilee by the children, to raise £500 for every year of the fifty. Now, children, be this your determination. Let this be the cry, “Jubilee is come! it is the fiftieth year of the Missionary Society, and we must raise our £25.000.” Well, each must bring his 5$. at least, and then it will be done.
And then, consider again what children hove done.


ON T11E JUBILEE.
89
See yonder beautiful ship sailing so gracefully across the ocean. Haik ! the voice of singing rises from her deck ; it is a hymn ; don’t you hear the words,
Jesus, at thy command, we launch into the deep.
It is the “John Williams,” the Missionary Ship; and that thanksgiving, and the voice of melody, is uttered by the Missionaries at the time of their evening prayer. Who raised the money to buy that Ship ? The young. To fit her out ? The young. Yes, there she goes ; Heaven speed her way ! See what children can do when they exert themselves.
Consider what heathen children do for idolatry. Read Jer. vii. 16. The Jews were wicked, and learned idolatry from the Heathen. Now, mark the scene; there were the fathers perspiring at the oven, and the mothers kneading the dough to make cakes to be baked and offered to an idol goddess, called the Queen of Heaven; but who gathered the wood to make the fire and heat the oven? Why, the children; and there they are, scrambling all over the country to collect sticks, and returning home with a song under heavy burdens. See how busy these heathen children were for idols, and shall not you be as busy for the true God ?
Consider how vexed you will be hereafter if you do nothing. Thousands and thousands of children will help the cause, and some of your companions will say, “I got so much ; how much did you get ?” How ashamed you will be to say, “Nothing
Consider again, you will never have another Jubilee, at least the greater part of you. Most of you will be dead before the centenary, which means a hundred years, will come.
But consider once more how pleasant it will be when you are old, if you should live so long, for you to think what you did, when you, even you, were young, for this cause. I can fancy I see one of your grandchildren

putting his hand upon your knee, looking up in your face, and saying, “ Tell me, grandpapa, what you did for the Missionary Ship, and the Missionary Jubilee, when you were a boy.”
Now, then, children, to work. First give your own money; because you cannot with a bold face ask others to give, if you do not give yourselves. Then carry round the card to others. Tell them the Missionary Jubilee is come, and that yon want to get all you can, to make a Jubilee for the whole world.
Blessed Jubilee!
Let thy glorious morning dawn.
Your sincere friend,
Birmingham. J. A. James.
A REAL CHINESE PUZZLE.
Young people are fond of puzzles, and have often puzzled for hours over bits of wood called Chinese puzzles, to very little purpose; but I am going to direct their attention to a Chinese puzzle of a very different kind, which will well repay their labour.
No doubt many inquisitive young readers have said, when looking at page 21 of the June Number, “ How I should like to know what these strange Chinese marks can mean. Let me see if I can puzzle any thing out by examining them.” We know that the Chinese write in eolwnsnA as in our spelling-books, that each character is a kind of picture^ and that, like the Hebrews and other orientals, they begin to read at the top on the right hand, and then read down the column. This specimen in page 21 represents part of the first chapter of the Gospel by John. Bearing these things in mind, let us look again at page 21, and


A REAL CHINESE PUZZLE.
91
though we cannot puzzle out much without an instructor, yet, by noticing where some characters are repeated, and by comparing their order with our English Testaments, the following things seem pretty certain, and by patient examination may be verified by every reader in some vacant hour.
In the first long column, the fifth character seems to stand for “ The Word,” it occurs in three other places, and in a diminutive form, it is joined with another character at the bottom of the third column, and again in the fourth column, forming the seventeenth and nineteenth characters, and also in the fifth column, forming the thirteenth character, where it seems to stand for “ Witness.” We meet it also again in the fifth column, the fifth character. In the first column the tenth character, no doubt, stands for“ God.” It occurs three times more. In the third column the twelfth character, I suppose, means “ Light,” it occurs again as the fourteenth character, and three times besides. The fifteenth and sixteenth characters of the third column are curiously formed by joining the diminished symbol for “ Light ” with other characters, I suppose to produce the idea of shining.
These guesses, for sucli they are, will probably amuse and excite interest in this extraordinary and most important language, and, perhaps, some one who understands Chinese will kindly tell us a little more about it in a future number. Possibly the interest excited by the specimen of Chinese in page 21 may be a means, in the hand of God, for stirring up a host of young Morrisons and Milncs. I think the structure of this curious

language must be very interesting to those who study it.
How hard must Dr. Morrison have studied and laboured to be able to select, out of far more than 20,000 characters, those best fitted to express the meaning of the whole Bible, and to write all in these strangely shaped symbols! Let us bless God for raising up such men, and pray that their mantle may rest on their successors, and that the sacred word may soon be widely spread amongst the 360,000,000 of that wonderful nation, that land of idols.

LITTLE EMMA’S CORNER.
Emma. Mama, I wish you would tell me and Eliza a little about the Jubilee ; you and dear papa seemed so pleased when you were talking about it just now.
Mama. Yes, my little dear, it m *kes us all feel happy, even to talk about it; and I think, when the time comes, it will be among the happiest days of our lives.
Emma. But I don’t quite understand what it is.
Mama. You know the Missionary Sodtety that sent out Dr. Morrison, and Dr. Philip, and Mr. Williams, and so many more good men.
Emma. Oh yes ! I must know that, because you talk so much about it, and we subscribe to it.
Mama. Well that Society is forty-nine years old.
Emma. Then is the Jubilee its birthday ?
Mama. Yes ; only they don’t keep its birthday every year, but now it will be going on to fifty they will keep it and call it the Jubilee year.
Emma. But I want to know why they call it so.
Mama. The Jews, when they lived in Canaan, had a custom to keep every fiftieth year as a very happy year,


HOME INTELLIGENCE.
when they made the poor slaves free, and people got back their own houses and lands, if they had lost them through getting poor.
Emma. Then I should like to call it the happy year.
Mama. That name will do very nicely for it. We call it Jubilee, because the Jews called it the year of jobel, the year of blowing the horn or trumpet, which was called by the name jobel.
Emma. I hope, mama, you will tell me more about the Jews some day; but just now I want to know how we are to keep this happy year. Is it to be like keeping my birthday, all the year round ?
Mama. We shall try to make you happy all the year, and the way to be so will be to pray to the Saviour that we may love him more and more, and pray for the Gospel, that it may be preached every where, and pray for all the Missionaries of every good society; and cheerfully give all the money we can to prove that we are in earnest.
Emma. I'm sure I shall like to give mine. I hope grandmama will let me give the half-crown she gave me for a new doll, at Christmas, to send the Bible to the poor heathen people. I'd rather do that than have the doll; but, perhaps, she’ll give me another half-crown on purpose, and then I can do both.

The Magazine continues to increase in sale ; and now
that every difficulty is removed as to its wholesale price to the trade, it may be hoped a still larger circulation will be secured. But the greater the allowance to the trade, the less the probability of our being able to increase the number of its pages. We hope to give two engravings in October.

Walworth.—A Juvenile Missionary Society wa9 formed a few months ago in the Sunday School of St. John’s Chapel, West Street; and, already, at the first public meeting lately held, no less than 3/. 1$. Id. was found raised, though the attendance is but from fifty to seventy children. This is truly gratifying and encouraging, and proves how much may be done when parties are in earnest.
NOTICES.
Jubilee of the Society.—The Directors do not solicit their young friends to commence their efforts immediately for the Jubilee Fund ; because, as they have already made a noble effort this year for the “ Ship/’ it may be better to wait till the new year of 1845, and then all the young, throughout the country, who wish to assist the Jubilee Fund, and shew friendship to the London Missionary Society, should join in the great work, ana present it as a New Year’s Offering.
Jubilee Medals are being prepared, and which, we doubt not, will interest all our friends—adult as well as young. They will be ready in the Jubilee Week, 23rd September.
FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE. Rafaravavy.—A letter has been received from this
excellent Christian woman, now at Mauritius, dated in April last, an extract from which we hope to give next month.

The poor heathen people I mean ;
Who never say prayers to the only true God,
Who never a Bible have seen ?


Tills MISSIONARY SHIP THE “ .JOHN WILLIAMS.” 95
Don’t it feeem very shocking to you,
That they worship an image of wood,
Or sometimes of stone,—just as if it could do Any mann&r of evil or good ?
Well, then, I am sure you ’ll agree,
That we who are wiser than they
Should send some good ministers over the sea,
To teach “ a more excellent way.”
A great many persons have gone,
And more are now waiting to go 5
And many bright beams of the Gospel have shone, Where all has been darkness and woe.
Expenses, of course, must be paid,
And Bibles and tracts must be bought 5
So that you this good work might be willing to aid, My humble petition I’ve brought,
I’ve promised to fill up my card,—
I’m very much pleased with the task ;—
And if you won’t help me, ’twill really seem hard, Since ’tis only a PENNY I Usk !
O give me a PENNY I pray,

Hail to thee, lovely bark, boast of the nation ! Herald of mercy, and ark of salvation !
Harbinger thou of “ glad tidings ” shalt be To those who inhabit the isles of the sea!

JUVENILE MISSIONARY MAGAZINE.
May He who commandeth the waves at His will, And saith to the wild wind, “ Peace ; be thou still/’ Give forth His mandate in favour of thee,
And guide thee direct to the isles of the sea.
May the faithful disciples Thou bearest away Turn many from darkness to marvellous day.
Oh, that the Gospel of Jesus maybe ‘ * Glad tidings ” indeed to the isles of the sea !
The harvest is plenteous, the labourers few,
And great is the work they have set them to do.
The captives of sin they are sent to set free,
And the Cross to erect in the isles of the sea.
Let them scatter profusely the seed of the Word;
May it bring forth much fruit to the praise of the Lord. May those who to idols did once bow the knee Henceforth serve the God of the isles of the sea!
HARVEST.
The golden corn which waves upon the plain By genial showers to the full harvest grew;
No single shower, no single drop of rain?
But every drop combined of shower and dew.
And so the little gifts, the little prayers,
Of youngest hands and hearts, are like the shower,
Made up of drops which yet the plain prepares For the full harvest of the Spirit’s power ;—
When the Redeemer’s knowledge shall extend,
And the millennial harvest thickly stand ;
That reign of peace begin which knows no end,— And all the earth become Emanuel’s land.
