I sometimes Ural a< 1 could blot All trace* ol mankind from earth— As if 'twere wrong to Meet them not, They so degrade, so shame their birth, To think that earth .should be so fair. So beautiful mid bright a thing, That nature should come forth and wear Such glorious upparcl.ng; Thai sky, sen, nir, should live and glow With light, and love, and holiness, And yet men nc»er fevl or know How much a t .oil can love and bl. ss— Mow deep their dcbi of thankfulness. I've teen ihc sun go down and light Like Hoods of gold poured M the sky— ■H hen every tree and flower was brigblf And every pulse was beating high. And tho full soul was gushing love, And longing for its home above— And then, when men would soar, ifeft r, To the high homei of thought anJ soul— When life's degrading ties should sever, And the free spirit spurn control-* Then have I seen, oh.huw my cheek Is burning with the shame I feel. That truth is in the words I speak, I've seen my fellow-crolu.es steal Away to their unjiallowed mirth ; As if the revelries of earth Were all that they could feel or sSare, A lew years since, as the Kev.

The reverend gentle- | man made arrangements with the authorities of the town, and look the boy into his own family. There he learned to read. Nor was that all. He soon acquired the confidence of his new as-sociates, by Ins faithfulness and honesty. He ginning, till they become incorporated with our nature. Is net the fixed law of the universe, the needle to the pole, a sufficient guarantee for the existence of attraction ! And who will ley it is not of divine origin I The passion of love is so, too, when of the genuine kind. Reason and ap-preciation of character may, on longer acquain-tance, deepen the impression, as streams their channels deeper wear, but the seal is set by n higher power than human will, and gives the stamp of happiness or misery to a whole life. to'you a s/i/7 more de^jiiiuijU opinion which Cell- .
