RELIGION.

Like snow that falls where waters glide,
Earths pleasures fade away:
They rest in times resistess tide,
And cold are while they stay
But joys that from religion flow,
Like stars that gid the night,
Amid the darkest gloom of wo,
Shine forth with sweetest light.
r eligion's ray no clouds obscure
But DER the Christian soul
1t sheds radiance calm and pure,
Though tempests round him roll;
His heart may break meath sorrows stroke
But TO its latest thrill,
Like diamonds shining when they're broke,
That ray will light it still.

TRUST IN GOD.

The grandeur of religion appears more
conspicuous, it attains sublimer attitude,
and shines with surprising majesty all its
own, when employed in solacing and sus-
tanning the Christian under distress and
personal bereavement. When his family
are torn from him by the cold rude hand Of
death, or a valued friend drops into the
grave without any intimation of the change,
and deprives him of all he loved below, he
appears wanderer, a sort of solitary de-
tachment of humanity, to himself, --discon-
ISOLATE, -unknown,-were it not for that
blissful assurance, that the separation is
only temporary, and that there is a time
coming, which will usher in a resurrection
of the Just, by Him, who on earth declared,
am the resurrection and the life. He
that believeth on me, though he were dead,
yet shall he live"
Religion, which abounds with precepts
for his entire trust in God, enables him also
to bear with patience and pious resignation,
the troubles and perplexities of life. While
it inculcates adherence to duty, constancy
in virtue, and dependence upon God, it no
less frequently expresses in anmating
strains, the Immortality of reasonable ma
lures, and the future inheritance Of the
righteous. This has been the Joy and SOL
ace of good men in every aye, their
slant light in darkness, their unfailng COM
fort in adversely, their perpetual support I'M
der persecution. The most apparently insur-
mountable obstacles, and formidable diff
culties, have dwindled into insignihcance
and empty shadow, equally mean, equally
unsubstantial, when brought into compe-
ttion with everlasting life, and the promis-
ed crown. The hope of future state, and
the cheering certainty of its near approach,
have in every land, and in every period of
time, when the celestial beam OF consola-
ton had dissipated the horrible darkness
by which reason is enveloped, and through
which it Intellectually essays to pierce and
penetrate beyond, made captivity freedom,
slavery liberty, and thrown around the eX-
lie the attractions and endearments of do
nestle life. This untroubled lustre, this
distant brightness, has guided with intre-
pidity the martyr to the stake, and the
Christian hero to the crucifxion, and death
in every shape. In the present day, this is
the humble Christians stedfast succor, his
eXhaustless font of consolation, when dis
tressed and forlorn, when deprived of his
dearest relations, and nearest ties Of affec-
ton and consanquinity; for what else can
strengthen and revive him?
"When friends have VANISHED from their view
less home,
And he is left companionless to roam,
o! what can cheer his melancholy way,
But hopes of union in the land of day"
When surrounded by complicated diff:
culties, and encompassed by dangers, while
traversing "this vale of tears" the thorny
wilderness of time, the pious Christian il
assured in the word of God " that all thing:
work together for good to them that love
God, and are called according to his pur
pose" -InPeriaL Magazine.

JUDICIAL DIGNITY. The following CONVEX
saton is said to have passed between venera-
BILE old lady, and a certain presiding Judge of
this State. The Judge was supported on the
right and on the left by his humble associates,
and tho old lady was called to give evidence.
President Judge-Take off your bonnet,
madam.
LADY, would rather not, sir.
p. i'll desire you to take off your bonnet.
LII am informed, that in public assemblies,
that women should cover the head such is the
custom--and of course | will not take off my

Men RAISED BY MERIT. That industry
and application will accomplish almost any
thing, is beautifully exemplfed by the sue
cess of some of the greatest men in the
civilized world, who have attained to emf
nence from obscurity and Indulgence. Hut
ton the great geometrician was a Coul-
HEAVIER. Huddart the machinist and math-
ematician was shoemaker. BrinLey the
Civil Engineer, who planned and executed
the immense Canals fthe Duke of Bridge
water, was an untaught common laborer.
.2,kioright who invented the machinery of
the Cotton mill, Fundamentally established
the manufacturing prominence of England,
was barber. Our own country too is pro-
life Of instances. Franklin was Journey

INToLERANcE. To expect that people,
jealous for one religion, should examine
the other maturely, equitably, and accurate
ly, is like pretending that person can be
fair Judge between two women, with one
of whom he is in love, while he has an aver
sion for the other. Lycidas is desperately
in love with Urania, and MORALLY hates
Corrinna; tell us, says some one, which is
the most charming; examine the matter :
he will promise to do so, but to a certainty
he will pronounce for Urania, and not con-
tented with preferring her to Corrinna, he
will prefer her also to all other women.
His reason will be in unison with that Of
his heart.-BOye.

FORMATION OF HAIL. A French phi
losophical journal, in an article ON the for
nation of hail, refers to the very ingenious
hypothesis of Volta, who considers it the
effect of electricity. The following is the
hypothesis referred. The rays of the sun
falling on thick cloud, produce a rapid
evaporation, which on chemical principles
must reduce the temperature of the uneVap-
Grated part, SO that the watery particles
are converted into icy PARTICLES sufficiently
heavy to overcome resistance and fall. Be-
low this is another cloud charged with the
same or different electricities. The small
hail has the same electricity of the cloud,
in which it was formed, and by gravity and
electric repulsion it is carried backward
and forward between the clouds, until the
hail stones are so increased in weight as
to overcome all resistance, and they fall to
the earth.

VoIITtoN AND NECESSITY. have al
ways been amused at the following distine-
ton, which boy made between what he
did unconsciously, and what he intended to
do:
A little fellow, tired of the monotony Of
the schoolroom, began to amuse himself
by making faces, blowing through his hands,
&C.. at last, he whistled aloud. "Who
whistled ?" asked the master. "Bill Cole"
answered the boy who sat next to him.
Come here, sir" said the master" what
did you whistle for 2" "Master, | didn't
whistle" Master, he did; see him do
it," Master, didn't thertainly," lisped
the culprit "it ,ehiSiled asey"
