ELIJAH'S INTERVIEW.
BY MRS. HEMASs

BY MRS. HEMASs.
On Horeb's rock the Prophet stood
The Lord before him pass'd;
A hurricane in angry mood
Swept by him strong and fast.
The forests fell before IFS force,
The rocks were shiver'd in its course
God was not in the blast.
Twas but the whirlwind of His breath,
Announcing danger, wreck, and death.
1t ceased. The air grew mute-a cloud
Came mufiiing up the sun;
When through the mountains, deep and loud
An earthquake thunderd on
The frlghted eagle sprang in air,
The wolf ran bowling from his lair;
God was not in the stun.
Twas but the rolling of His car,
The tramplng of His steeds from far.
Twas still again-and Nature stood
And calm'd her ruffled frame
When swift from Heaven a fiery flood
To earth devouring came.
Down to his depths the ocean fled,
The sickening sun look d wan and dead
Yet God fill'd not the flame.
Twas but the terror of His eve
That lighten'd through the troubled sky.
At last voice all still and small,
Rose sweetly on the ear;
Yet rose so clear and shrill that all
In heaven and earth might hear
II spoke of peace, it spoke of love,
1t spoke as angels speak above,
And God himself was here
For, oh it was Fathers voice,
That babe his trembling world rejoice.

Junius, in one of his private letters, asserts
that he "never knew a rogue who was not
unhappy" Unhappy people are very apt
to find fault and grumble; therefore, let
our readers who wish to avoid the suspicion
of roguery avoid grumblng.
