TO MARGARET:

On seeing Bee Glight upon her bonnet. Away! thou little busy bee,
 And leave that gaudy bonnet; Away! the only flowers you see,
 Are false-depend upon it! For I, like you, her roses spied, / And took them all for true ones; And though 'twas said they time defied, Believed them good as new ones. And once I thought, like thee, to sip, As near she seemed to-taintipg; But ere their tints had stained my lip, Discovered them a-painting!

 For wings he has about him; And to my cost find

for pardon, common sense and decency would teach him suitableness of manner and any one who could not understand his language, might know by the sound of his words that he was not making bargain, or telling story. How much more, when we speak to the King of kings, should the consideration of his glory, and our own vileness, and of the important concerns we are engaged in before him, impress us with an air Of seriousness and reverence, and prevent us from speaking to him as if he was altogether such one as ourselves D. The liberty to which we are called by the Gospel, does not at all encourage such a pertness and familiarity as would be unbe- coming to use towards fellow worm who was little advanced above US in worldly dignity.
 I shall be glad ifthese hints may be of a. ny service to those who desire to worship God in spirit and in truth, and who wish that whatever has tendency to damp the spirit of devotion, either in themselves, or in others, might be avoided.

 The Rev. Dr. Ely, of Philadelphia, hay ing been charged with preaching sermon on the 4th of July last, in which sentiments favorable to an established religion in the U. States were advanced, has come out in answer to the charge, in which he says:
 A descendant from the Puritans, to whom under God, our country owes its present enjoyment of civil and religious liberty, l glory in your republican consti- tutions of government, and in the smiles of heaven upon nation of !reemen. So far am I from desiring any establishment of any religious system by either the Nation al or State Legislatures, that I would not only write, and preach, and pray against such establishment of any one ecclesiastic- al denomination, but if needful would bear musket, or use the sword ot defence a. gainst any one who should by force of arms invade our rights.''
 If it may be of any use, do hereby solemnly declare and affirm, that I never, al any time, or in any place, GdUocated the union of Church and State. have never desired that one religious denomination should enjoy higher religious privileges from the State than another; and I chal- lenge any and all who have accused me on this subject, to prove that have ever said or done any thing to warrant in the slightest degree the malicious charge of having aimed to establish any religion by the laws of the land"

More Female Mischief.-We have from made by the ladies upon the rights and privileges of the lordly sex. They have at last capped the climax of their enor- mites and reached the " ultima thule" of their aggressions.. Two ladies,> the one French, and the other German, lately quarrelled at Strasbourg, about a young miniature painter. The latter is 8 bar- oness-the former, wife to General of Division. The German lady challenged her rival-female seconds were appoint ed-and the parties belligerent met, pistol in hand. The fair German insisted upon fighting muzzle to muzzle; but the more twenty five paces. The word was given !' and they did fire with great Don- chalence, but at the same moment, and both missed. Hereupon Germany became little excited, and insisted upon advan- cling and firing until one or the other should fall. France demurred-did not like the plan at all-was willing to try an- other shot at twenty-five paces, but was a. verse to approximation. The seconds inter- posed-declared that the laws of honor were satis6ed-took away the pistols, and put stay to further proceedings. Before leaving the ground, France, in very hand- some terms, disclaimed all personal hos- tility, saying 'she thought it due to her honor to takea shot with the German, but now that the affair was at an end, the lady was welcome to the miniature painter, whom she had forbidden her presence that very morning." Thus Germany got the painter, ,and so ended this tragedy, tIGt might haVe been. What will the, ladies do next xt?-N. y. Courier.
