THIS unpretending compilation is designed to supply a want in our Sabbaih-school litera ture. It has seemed to me that a memorial of Charles Wesley, canvassing the main and important facts of his career, drawn up with appropriate brevity and sprightliness, and in a shape to attract youthful readers, would be of positive use to the Church, The English biography by Jackson, which was republished at New York in 1842, and from which this little volume is principally compiled, has its value as a book for minis ters, and for the study but is quite too voluminous and cumbersome for common 6 PREFACE. readers. la fact, the spirit of the age and the American taste require that authors who would be read must be brief, and earnest, and to the point. They must be chary of side-issues, characters, and reflections deal sparingly in generalities, keep the subject of their pencilings as vividly as possible before the eye, and cease their touches as soon as the picture is finished. Such has been the endeavor in the little volume hereby submitted to the public. The story of Charles Wesley is highly instructive, and, for the most part, greatly beautiful and it is hoped that the present version of it may not be unwelcome to the youth of the land. THE EDITOR.

His mother, Susanna Wesley, was a more than ordinary woman, being characterizecfcby sincere piety, a strong and well cultivated mind, elevated views of parental duly and responsibil ity, and uncommon talent and energy as a Chris tian mother.
