The folIowing beautiful EXTRACT is from an En-

"FIere, where wild Fancy wondrous fctions
drew,
and knelt to worship till she thought them true
Here, in the paths which haneful error trod,
The great Apostle preach'd the Unknown Con
Silent the crowd were hush'd; for his the eye
Which power controls not, sin cannot defy;
Ills the tall stature, and the lifted hand,
And the hx'd countenance grave commsnd
And his the voice which, heard but once will sink
So deep into the hearts Of those that think,
That they may live till years and years are gone,
And never lose one echo of its tone
Vet, when the voice had cessd, camor rose,
And mingled cIamor rung from friends and foes
The threat was mEttei'd. aud the CALLING gibe,
by each pale Sophist and his pal,ry tribe;
The naughty Stole pass'd in gloomy state,
The heaIlless Cynic scowPd his grovelling hate,
And the soft Gardens rose-eneircled child
Sm'd unbelief, and shudder'd as he smPd
Paul tranquil stood, for he had heard-couid
hear,
Blame and reproach with an nntroubled ear:
Ger his broad forehead vsihy were wrought
The dark deep lines of courage and OF thought;
aud il the colour from his cheek was fled,
Its paIeness spoke no passion, aud no dread.
The meek endurance and the steadiast will,
The patient nerve that suffers and is still,
The humble faith that bends to meet the rod,
And the strong hope that turns from man to God
All these were he; and his firm heart was set;
lie knew the hour must come-but was not yet. F"
