P0EWK
ANNIVERSARY hymn.

BY WILLIS @ CLARE.
for the late anniversary of the A.
merican Sunday School Union, and
sung on that occasion.
We have met; in peace, together,
10 this house of God again;
Constant friends have led us hither,
Here to chant the solemn Strain;
Here 10 breath our alteration,
While the balmy breeze of spring,
Like the Spirit of salvation,
Comes, with gladness on its wing!
And. while nature glows with beauty,
While the fields are deSk'd with flowers,
Shall our hearts forget their duty,
SHAH our souls neglect their powersp
Shall not all our hopes. ascending,
Point us to a home above,
Where, ia glory never ending,
He who made ne smiles in lover
There no autumn tempests gather,
There no friends lament the dead;
And on fields that never wither,
Fadcless rays Of light are she'd,
There, with bright immortal roses,
And each ransom'd sodl reposes,
Midst a scene Of bliss untold.
We have met, and time is flying,
We shall part; and still his wing,
Sweeping DER the dead and dying,
Will the changeful seasons bring,
Let US, while our hearts are highest,
In our fresh and early years,
Turn to HIM whose smile is brightest
And whose grace will calm our fears.
He will aid rs, should existence,
With its sorrows sting the breast,
Cleaning in the onward distance.
Faith will mark the land of rest;
There mid day beams round him playing
We our Fathers face shall see,
And shall hear Him, gently saying,
Little children, come TO me"

Preference Of The woy for The human flesh -
When the Mambookies build their houses,
which are in form like bee-hiyes, and tolera-
bly, large, (often eighteen or twenty feet in
diameter) the floor is raised at the higher or
back part of the house. until within three or
fonr feet OF the front, where it suddenly ter
inmates, leaving an area from theuce TO the
wall, IN which every night the calves are tied
TO protect them from the storm or wild beasts.
Now it would be natural to suppose, that
should the wolf enter he would seize the first
object for his prey. especially as the natives
always lie with the fire at their feet. But
Notwithstanding this. the practice of this ami
NAL has been, in every instance, to pass by
the calves in the area, and even by the fire,
and 10 take the children from under the mo
theirs kaross, and that in such a gentle aud
cautious manner, that the poor parent has
been lncautious of her loss, until the cries
Of her little innocent have reached from
without, when a close prisoner in the paws

TO offer any coincidence here to the afflicted do
nestle circle from which Mr. Sands has been
suddenly withdrawn, but we cannot allow one,
Of his talents and worth, to pass so abruptly
away without showing our appreciation Of the
loss to society: for, seldom as his name has been
brought before the public, there are few literary
men in the country Of the same age whose wri-
tings have been more generally circulated and
admired than those Of Robert G. Sands. Since
the period, some IL years since, when he was
first known, with the lamented Jas Eastburn,
as one Of the authors of Yamoiden,'' his yer.
satIle pen has been continually exercised; and
while the name of their modest author was rare
ly mentioned, his writings, whether grave or gay
in prose or in poetry, in the entertaining pages
of the Atlantic Magazine, which he edited. in
the busy columns OF the evening paper which he
frequently favored with some sally OF his humor,
learning or Imagination, or upon the elegant
leaves of The Talisnan-where his valuable con-
tributlons are embatmed with those Of verplanck
Bryant aud Haleck-were widely known and
warmly admired.
MIR. Sands was in fact. entirely devoted to
the pursuit Of letters; and living much in retire.
ment, he seemed to cultivate them solely for his
own sdusiaCuOi', anu 'eSd'uiess W u'c 'ep"'"-
