SUMMONS TO CONSERVATIVES.
Ue, up, my brave comrades—come rouse to the call
Ot your country—your King—your religion, and all—
All—all that is dear, let us fence with a ring,
And. save from destruction our altars and King.
There once was a time when an Englishman's. boast
Was to give Church and King as his ev'ry day toast;
But the Rads of our days would hurl Ro34lty down,
And pluck the bright gem of the Church from the Crown.
There once was a time when "the Ladies were given"
The next—as the very best bounty of Heav'n ;
But the Radical crew some fresh idol have seen,
And, shame to their manhood they groan at the Queen,
Some dining-out Lords, who would gammon the folks,
With their plans of Reform (Oh ye gods, what a hoax),
Cry—" rob us the Church ;" and while turtle they carve,
Send the poor to the workhouse—or leave them to starve,
Then rally, my hearties—revive the good times,
When the laws were respected, and riots were crimes;
Let us join heart and voice, and with ecstacv sing,
Long life to our Church, Constitution, and Ring.

THE EMPIRE OF WOMAN.—ScHILLsa.

Her might is gentleness—she winneth sway
By a soft word, and by a softer look ;
Where she, the gentle-loving one, hath failed,
The proud or stern might never succeed.
Strength, power, and majesty, belong to-man;
They make the. glory native to his life ;
But sweetness is a w unan's attribute—
By that she has reigned, and by that will reign.
There have been some, who, with a mightier mind,
Have won dominion—but they never won
The dearer empire of the beautiful:—
Sweet sovereigns in their natural loveliness. L. E. L.

TESTIMONY FROM THE WORKING CLASSES TO A CLERGY-
MAN.—The working classes of South Shields, on Saturday last,
presented to the lieu. James Carr, Incumbent of St. Hilda's, a
silver salver with a Pocket Cuemmunion Service as a testimony
of their gratitude fur his unwearied and affectionate attention
to the poor of the town during two visitations of the cholera.
On this occasion a very considerable number of the working
classes were assembled in the Seaman's Hall, and it was pleas-
ing to observe the manly pride they seemed to feel in being able
to evince their gratitude and respect for the worthy. clrgyman.
The salver is thirteen inches in diameter, and with the Com-
munion Service cost £2l, which suns was raised by 1'239 sub-
scribers, whose names were written on a sheet of parchment
accompanying the plate. John liedpath, a mason, read an
`address to the rev. gedtleman, who replied to.it by affectionately.
urging upon his audience that amendment of life which it is
the design of all visitations of Providence to accomplish. This
is the third testimonial which Mr. Carr has received within a
few weeks. The first was a gold ring from the children of the
parochial schools, which was followed by a huge salver and
seventy-seven sovereigns from the inhabitants in general; and
perhaps the tribute we now record still more powerfully testifies
the exemplary character of this useful and respected elcirgitnan.
