TO ALL CHRISTIANS.

1t is an error to believe, that devotion nourishes
spirit OF severity, in judging Of the manners and
characters of others. Under this reproach, indeed,
it has so long suffered in the word, that, with too
many, the appellaon of devout suggests other
character, but that Of and recluse bgot, who
delights in censure. But the reproach is unjust;
for such spirit is entirely opposite to the nature Of
true devotion. The first traces which this imprints
on the mind are candour and humility. Its princi-
pies are liberal. lis genius is unassuming and mild.
Severe only TO itself, makes every allowance for
others which humanity can suggest. 1t claims
mo privilege of looking into their hearts, or OF deci
ding with respect to their eternal state. If your
supposed devotion produce contrary effects; if it
infuse harshness into your sentiments, and acrimony
into your speech you may conclude, that, under a
serious appearance, carnal passions Turk. And il
ever it shall far lift you up with self concet, as
to make you establish your own opinions an in
fallibe standard for the whole Christian world and
lead you to consgn to perdition all who differ from
you, either in some doctrina tenets, in the mode
OF expressing them; you may rest assured, that TO
much pride you have joined much ignorance, both
ofthe nature of deyotion and oflhe Gospel oil Christ.

THE PEACE OF THE GRAVE.

I loved in the bright tinted day dreams Of youth
TO muse on the changes to come
And often I asked at the fountain of truth,
All, where is the peace of the tomb?
When the years of my life shall have wasted away
sAnd gone are life's gttering germs
O how can smile, or how TRANQUILITY lay
Myself down TO be food for the worms.
But knew not myself--tiil it taught me how far
From this world was the realm of my rest
Till it pointed my spirit to Be,hlehems star,
And bid me 60 on and be blest--
Then turned, and adown the long vista of years
Which life to my young vision gave
looked, and beheld it all troubles and tears,
And smiled at the thought of the grave.

THE PATRIOTIC SPaN'L.aRDS.

Iberian mountains high and boar,
Whose tops are crowned with vestal snow,
What sudden light begins to pour
And fash upon the wales below
'Tis freedom rising from her car,
To light in Spain her morning star.
o! by that light, what glorious shades
Ofherocs and OF saints are seen,
All armed with shining battle blades;
With names to memory ever green.
They move behind fair freedoms car,
While she relights her morning star.
Now, while her favorite star she turns,
And sets it in sky so clear
Behold, behold, what lustre burns,
What sacred light-'tis glory's sphere;
Shou, every hill top from altar
For freedom lights her morning STAR
That light inspires each patriot soul,
And swells the heart to noble deeds,
Zach hill top, far as eye can roll,
Now sWarms with men and bounding steeus
The Patriots--neXt to Heaven they STAND
Defenders OF their native land.
What swarming crowds are those beneath,
in the dark cavern shades they stray,
Poor grovelling slavish souls they breathe,
Without glimmer of the ray;
Strangers have travelled from atar,
To quench this glorious morning star.
But bark! what shouts the wekin rend,
Fiom every mountains shining height,
Adoring millions knee and bend,
And gaze on that Transforming light;
They swear to die at freedoms car,
Before they quit her morning star.
Think ye, cries freedom with sneer,
This light can be extnguished So
Ye slaves with CONSERVATION hear,
My sun is rising Just below
His glories beaming wide and tar,
Shall only quench my morning star.
