THE REFORNIER.

yUyE design Of this work expose the clerical schemes
and pompous undertakings of the present day, under
pretence of promoting religion, and show that they are
irreconciabe with the spirt and principles of the Gospel
The great Missionary operations which commenced few
wears since and the Theological Semnares

or Indirect they steadily advancing their cause aud
their ascen' ICY the minds of the people and

scar N individual will be found willing to incur the
haa I'd of opposing any OF their schemes. The pencous
effects of clerical domination in this country, may be in
ferred from the history of other countries and ought early
TO be guarded against. There already few who have
sufficient rmness to present these men before the public
in their cooursand hence the prospect OF their
cess, and o,ir danger, is greatly increased.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

"Our preference is given, on mature reflection,
and with single eye 10 the welfare Of our country,
to JOHN Quincy ADAMs.-We may err in our
private feelings or views could influence us on so
momentous question. The happiness OF ten mil
lions oil People, outweghs with us all other consd-
eratons and il we thought that this object would
be better promoted by any other candidate than by
MIR. ADAMS, that candidate should have our uffrage.
Our uniform devotion to The Republican cause Tor
nearly thirty years, is the best evidence can Of
Ter OF our sincerity on the present occaslonout eff
forts as an Editor for more than twenty years to
contribute to the union and success of the Repub-
can party, form our pledge that we do not seek
to divide or defeat il now. Our convictions that the
principles and views OF the Republicans are most
consistent with the provisions OF the constitution
and with the dictates Of sound policy, and the most
conducive to the liberty and prosperity OF the
country have been confirmed by every years expe-
rIence and observation: and the progress OF events
in the old world has more and more endeared to US
oar Repu bcsn institutions, which secure TO US a
freedom and happiness no where else enjoyed.
Our attachment to Mr.. ADAMS is founded upon
his long experience in public affairs abroad and al
home-upon the talents he has uniformly displayed
in maintaining the honor and interests OF our country
and upon the infexbe integrity he has manifes-
has occupied. Nearly his whole life has been
spent 10 the service of his country; and we know
not that he can be justly charged with single act
derogatoy to his character as true patriot, sound
statesman, and an honest man.

From Montserado.--We are happy to learn
that letters have just been received by the Coloni

OF hundred settlers, had arrived IN safety, and
though some oil the engrants who sailed in her

one woman had died-al the others were consid-

NEW YORK,
Saturday afternoon, May Is, 1894.
Her path was on the briny deep;
Yet no white sail propelled her course
Nor measur'd with graceful sweep
Urg'd her to stem the pillows force,
Self-mov'd, with heecy track she past
Disdaining in her pride
10 WOO the breeze or shun the blasts
Or wait the rolling tide,
While boldly to the sky
Her ensign wreathing high, cast.
inwrought with vOumd smoke, and sparkling flame she
Lightly DER her bosom rov'd,
Where rainbow mirth shining,
Forms reverb, and hearts beloved,
In changefu groups combining
Chdhoods smile,
And Beauty's vile,
Manhood with his brow of care,
And Observation-Disclosures there;
Above, the sky was glowing,
Beneath, the food, like silver flowing,
Around, in chequering light and shade,
Her hues delighted Spring dispayd;
Velvet verdure deck'd the wales,
Winding rivers, white with sails,
Through their tufted margins strayd;
Each dazzling scene, like moving picture, threw
Its coloring on the eye, and rapidly withdrew.
And now the setting sun, in liquid richness, pours
flood of glory DER the approaching shores
Of that proud mart, which like queen
Upon her island hone, is seen,
With thronging masls and spires, in long array;
Then sparkling eyes we're bent
And ardent chances sent
Thro the soft misty curtains of declining day,
To gain vesge OF their home
Gay Fancy decks the dome
With flowers of Joy
richer blush steals DER the virgin GOV;
And lost in speeches. love the mother clasps her boy
Hark-'tis the crash of thunder But no cloud
Nantes the untroubed sky.
Again lit blends with cries of anguish loud
In air disrupted members fly.
Blood streams and meath the waters hoar
Plunge deeply those who rise more.
And alb Outsretch'd see,
In nameless agony,
Woman's implorlng hand,-the piercing cry
OF suffering innocence invades the sky.
Iase-snatcb them from the wreck! God they faint
[they die
IT'S silent on the wave. The thunders sleep
But many stricken soul shall mourn their ire
Still smiles the sun but many an eye shall weep
Ere TO his sea-girt chamber he retire
The expected guesl--,le sister far,-
The child, with fond, confding air.
The friend, who with angels men
Humid the dear, domestic scene
All ask not--ask not, where they ares
Or why they come not See despair
Rend from the mourning sire
The few thin remnants of that silver hair, ispare.
Which, frosted DER with age, cen ruthless Time could
Who 10 the orphans its treasure shall restore
Who bind the widow'd heart, which breaking heals

Fral as flower, beneath the blast of pain,
How impotent and vain

And from their dark embrace "escu'd the sinking FORM
Can, when the whelming surges roll,
