Among the imagery VI wonders past;
Look near the Southern gate; look, and behold,
On spacious canvass, touched with living hues,--
The C0nflagraiiOn Of the ancient earth,
The handiwOrk Of high arch.angel, drawn
From memory Of what he saw that day.
See how the mountains, how theRAllies burn!
The Andes burn, the Alps, the Appenines;

The Ocean burns, and rolls his waves Of fame.
See how the lighinings, barbed. red with wrath,

And kindled with the fury Of his wrath.

So burned the Earth upon that dreadful day,
Yet not to full annihilation burned:

Purged BY the final, sanctifying 6res,
From all corruption; from all stain Of sin,
Done there by man or devil, purified.
The essential particles remained, ofwhich

With fertile vale, and wood Of fertile bough:
And streams Of milk and honey, flowing song;
And mountains cinctured with perpetual green;
In cline and season fruitful, as at first,

PORTRAIT OF A DRUNKARD.

Esom the Edinburgh Review ON Macnish's Anatomy
ofDrunkenness.
Look at that gray headed man of three
score years and upwards, sitting by the
way-side What eye beheld the many hum
bred steps, that, one by one, with imper-
ceptible graduation lcd him down-down to
the lowest depth of shame, suffering, and
ruins For years before it was bruited.a-
broad through the parish, in his native
Scotland, that Gabriel Mason was addict
ed to strong drink his wife used to sit for
hours weeping alone, when their sons and
daughters were ont at their work in the
fields and the infatuated man, fierce in the
excitement of raw ardent spirits, kept con-
stantly raging and storming through every
nook of that once SO peaceful tenement,
which for many happy years had never
been disturbed by the loud voice Of anger
or reproach. His eyes were seldom turn
ed on his unhappy wife, except with sui
len scowl, or fiery wrath /; but when they
did look onsher with kindness, there was
ruefuhself apbraiding in the expression Of
his eyes on account Of his cruelty; and at
sight of such transitory tenderness, her soul
overlooked with forgiving affection, and her
sunk eyes with uncomfortable tears. But nor
dOmestick sin nor domestick sorrow will
or can conceal from the eyes and ears OF
men; and, at last, poor Gabriel Mason's
name was bye word in the mouth Of the
scoffer.
To regain his character seemed beyond
the power Of man and against the DEGREES
Of God. So he delivered himself like q
slave to one appetite, and, in a few years,
his whole household had gone to destruc-
ton. His wife was matron in the prime
of life, when she died /; but as she died---
% she kept wearing away to the other
world her face told that she felt that her
years had been too many in this. Her ell.
dest SOP, unable TO lift bis eyes at kirk or
market went away to the city, and enlisted
in regiment about to embark ON foreign
service. His two sisters went to take fare
well of him, but never returned one, it is
said, having died Of a fever in the in6rma-
w, Just as if she had been pauper; aud
the other--for the sight Of sin and sorrow,
is ruinous--gave herself up, in her beauty,
an easy prey to the destroyer, and is now
no more. The rest ofthe family dropped
down, one by one, out ofsight, into inferior
eilnaIions in far of places but there was
curse hanging over the family, andaof none
0f them did ever favorable report come
% their native parish while he the infat.
nated sinner, whose vice seemed TO have
worked Ill the wo, remained in the chains

THE IMPORTANCE OF CORRECT PRINCI.
PILES IN EARLY LIFE.

The following account Of Quaker of
Falmouth Eng. is taken from McDonald's
Life ofthe Rev. Mr.. Benson. 1t was re-
lated by Mr.. Woolcroft:
This man unknown to his family & friends
had joined with some others in fitting out
a privateer to act against the French who
had allied themselves to the American CO.
lonies while in arms against Great Britain.
The privateer was successful. and when
peace was concluded, there was consid-
cradle dividend for the proprieters. The
Quaker received his share among the rest;
but his conscience reproached him for the
deed he had done. His considered himself
guilty Of robbery. About this time he was
brought by affection to the gates of death,
which greatly increased his distress. He
frequently exclaimed, "Oh, that ill-go,ten
money!" Neither his wife nor his friends
knew what he meant. At length he res
olved, that, should the Lord raise him up,
he would make restitution to the injured
parties, If they could be found. The Lord
did raise him up, and he sen, bis son to Pa
ris with the sum, intending to have him ad u.
vertise in the Paris Gazette that any per-
son who had suffered by such privateer,
upon coming and proving their losses, would
be refunded ID proportion to his share in
the prizes. This was done to the aston
.ishment Of France.
