THE GERMAN CATHOLIC
CHURCH.
ScHuEtrwmurrt..—Our German Catholic Church will
hhortly be under roof, and we most heartily wish that the
reformation festival, which is to be solemnised in it in the
nliddle of October next, may assemble here all these valiant
champions who were raised by the cry for help, which once
went forth from this little place, in order that they may thus
receive the thanks of the liberated, and that theymay behold
Hie first erected German Catholic place of worship which is
destined to consecrate to future generations their heroic
achievements.
-EITSTADT, NEAR THE HAARDT.—Our German Catholic
°44inunity has inserted in the public papers the following
reply
to an anonymous writer in the Post Gazette of Augs-
;``,T,9 t:---" We, tierman Catholics, or, as you style us, the

to adhere to the cause of Church reform, and that we do

the firm principles of Christianity. We cannot, indeed,
rest of many noble members, but we have, however, sixty
heady f families in our community, who, we are sure, fulfil
Ih4r duties as men and as citizens. That we do not enjoy

LITERATURE.
771 R OCEANFLO WEB ; a Poem. Preceded cy a
Descriptive and Historical Account of the hiand of
odeira. By T. M. Hughes, Author of "Revelations
Spain."
hat Mr. Hughe3 is a shrewd and sensible observer,
"d an accurate and lively delineator of' the manners and •
chrins of foreign lands, has been sufficiently preyed by
" Revelations of Spain." He now appears before us
jussal3"et ; and the present volume proves that he has a
e ,t right to the title. " The Ocean Flower" is the poeti-
-441 natoe which our author gives to the island of Madeira.
srll his poem, which consists of ten short cantos, is de-
(pl,tive of the scenery of the island and of the history
tur, its first discovery. In detailing the history of its dis-
c,jerY and settlement our author introduces, by way of
lilas,‘,3de, many of the romantic legends of Portugal and
an.rim• These are all treated with true poetic feeling,
) the old ballad metre has been in many instances
:" pted with great effect. The introductory stanzas to
,iteh canto are of a reflective character, and remind us,
tr'jat• 6cl touch by the construction of the verse as by the
4_14 Of thought pursued, not unfrequently of " Childe
4r01d," Some of the lyrics with which the poem is in-
thresPeried are very spirited. The following "Song of
"Aj3'll-ringers .:at the Consecration of the Church of our
of the Strand," would, if set to music by some
11 d
541ar composer, become tie song at bell-ringing
SONG OF TIIE BELL-RINGERS.

Swing the bells bravely
With true triple peal,
Lightly, yet gravely,
Until the brain reel.
--Bell-ringers boldly
In musical chime
Swing, never coldly,
But sweetly in time.
From the earth bounding,
Next instant descend;
Be the peal sounding
The same to the end.
Lusty bell-ringers,
How shakes the tall tower;
Sway, nimble fingers,
A mammoth in power !

Oh, it is glorious

Grandly,Ahn

Till .
While he is swinging, .
No cannon more strong ,
While the peal's ringing, _
Like thunder his tongue I
When he booms loudly
In fast growing speed,
Rein him in proudly
Like galloping steed.
Fresh as Aurora
With vigour still rise ;
