The Sabbath Bell.

To all civilized Natons-to all who
revere the name of Him who fixed the
stars--to all who stand in awe Of the
great Architect of Nature and ourselves,
the Sabbath Bell has grateful sound
1t strikes q deep and awful call to every
man Of reflection. 1t invites the good
and pure in heart to an holy converse
with the Deity, and i. warns the obsti-
nate and depraved to pause, and turn,
and be received. After the tolls of the
secular week, the morning Sabbath Bell
tolls in the ear of busy people, TO rest
from their labors, and enjoy the calm
which the great Almighty hath ordain-
ed, it rings to all Nature the tones Of
Peace and good will to men.
On the Sabbath morning, in the coun-
try, when Providence is breathing its
smiles on the earth, it is refreshing to
hear the call Of the country Sabbath
Bell; to join the devotional procession as
it wends in silence to the House that is
dedicated to the God of the Universe.
There is holy charm in contemplating
their simple and unadorned attire--em-
blematical of the spotlessness of the spir-
it within--their meek and unaffected de-
votion, and the quiet concern ofthe soul
in things that speak Of its everlasting
peace.
Nor in a populous city, is the specta-
Gle less solemn. After the turmoil OF
business and the fascination Of the week,
the Sabbath Bell calls the venerable and
the great, the young, the gay, and the
beautiful, to remember Him, who imparts
his blessing to the just, and even to the
unjust. The prosperous tradesman and
the opulent merchant, are called from
their cares, to devote few hours to ho-
ly recreation.
/ They assemble in the holy house--all
the diversified passions are lulled to rest :
the business OF the world is forgotten,
and amidst the profound silence of the
throng, voice proclaims, "I'he Lord
is in his Holy Temple" Every heart
and voice responds with conscious con.
viction, and hundreds unite in praise to
the mighty Author Of their existence,
and in humble supplications to the dread +,
yet still merciful Almighty.
The evening prisons in Spain,ar con-
Quoted with utmost solemnity. A friend
Of ours has said, that the most solemn
scene he ever beheld, was that of 4 900
human beings on their knees, in the Ca
thedral of Madrid, engaged in prayer.
AT the evening orison, however, when
the Bells toll the signal that the sun has
departed to light up another world, sud-
denly every vehicle has stopped, every
lip is mute, every tongue is hushed--
and from vast Nation there ascends to
/, Heaven, one united prayer to Him who
wove the whose unseen, ye
awful pervading spirit, alike alights up
on the sunbeam in the morning, anC
walks upon the pinions of the midnigh
| storm.

INTERESTING FACT.

A few years ago, a very worthy labor
ing man, in Salem, who had been so un-
fortunate as TO acquire habit of drink
ing spirits, becoming convinced of its ru-
inous tendency, had strength of mind suf-
fcient to form an efectual Resolution Of
future abstinence. AT that time, he had
a wooden box made, with hole in the
lid, and labelled "RUM," into which he
every day dropped as much money, as he
had been in the habit Of spending for
liquor. The box was never opened TIKI
very recently, when, on counting the
sum, it was found to amount to no less
than One Hundred and Eighty Dollars,
with part ofwhich he purchased good
house lot, md the remainder will 60 TO-
wards putting a neat and ortable
new house upon it. Such examples are
above all praise.

MISCELLANY.
MydrOphODia.
ITS TREATMENT AND CURE.

NJ Buisson, learned French Physi-
clan, writes to the Academy Of Science,
to claim small treatise on a case of
Hydrophobia, which was his own. He
says in complaint of this kind, he bled
patient at her own request, who died,
as he expected, but in performing the op-
Grafton, he got his hands bloody, and af-
ter washing them, wiped them with a
towel that had been used to wipe the
mouth Of the patient-that there was lit
tie sores on his hands, and he took the
infection. Nine days after he felt the
syH ptoms Of Hydrophobia, being in his
cabriolet, he was suddenly seized with a
pain in the throat, and one still greater
in his eyes. The saliva was continually
pouring into his mouth; the impression OF
a current Of air, the sight Of brilliant bo-
dies gave him painful sensations, his bo-
dy appeared to him so light, that he felt
as though he could leap to prodigious
height; he experienced, he said wish
to run and bite, not men, but animals and
animate bodies. Finally, he drank with
difficulty, and the sight Of water was
still more distressing to him than the
pain in his throat.
These symptoms occurred every five
minutes and it appeared to him as though
the pain commenced in the affected fin
ger, and extended thence up to the
shoulder. From the whole symptoms
he judged himself affected with the by.
drophobia, and resolved to terminate hi.
life by sitting himself in a vapor bath
Having entered one for this purpose, ht
caused the heat to be raised to AZ de-
grees Reaumur, (l7o degrees, SO min
utes Farenheit,) when he was equal,
surprised and delighted to find himsel
free from all complaint He left tn,
bathing room, welI-dined heartily, ane
drank more than usual. Since that time
he says, he has treated in the same man
ner more than eighty persons bitten, il
four of whom the symptoms had declar
ed themselves, and in no case has ht
failed except that Of one child Z year
old, who died in the bath.

Should man be proud'--Go ask the Great,

You will not find with all their state,

Like marble o'er the place Of death,
Though fair without, all's vile within.

Go to the place where thousands sleep
In still obIivion's midnight shroud,
And DER the wreck Of being weep,

The Christian Mariner.

When loud the midnight tempest roaring,
Lifts on high the Ocean waves,
The fearless tar, his God adoripg,
Calmly every danger braves.
When tender thoughts OF home come Ger him
IT'S thought to soothe and cheer,
That brings the seamen's friend before him.
Caring for his dear ones here.
What tho the pangs Of death assail him,
Sinking in the sickly cline;
He has hope that cannot fail him,
Piercing through the veil of time.
No peris Of the deep can daunt him,
While he makes his God his trust,
And has no deeds Of guilt to haunt him,
All whose ways are true and just.
lie hears the billow's angry dashing,
Booming o'er the reefy shoal,
And midst the lightnings round him flashing.
Stays on God his tranquil soul.
He knows the Power, that can deliver,
Will deliver If it's best;
And unto Him, its guard and giver,
Yields his spiri. and is blest.
IT'S ours his Orphan'd charge to cherish,
Ours his widow'd one to cheer,
And goods, that in the using perish,
May be stor'd in Heaven here.

From the Nantu cket Inquirer
The Voices Of Home.
Ilove eartli's bright and primrose paths,
Her lawns and blooming trees,
The warblers in the summer woods.
The music in the breeze.
But dearer yet the happy hearth,
The sounds that from it come
The voices to my childhood dear,
The voices Of my home!
What pleasant dreams all nigh, will come,
Mid scenes Of lovely hue,
Where stoop those ange-forms to bless
We wake and wish them true;
But swee,er, and more gentle forms
Do not in vision come,
Than those that smile and welcome US,
Around the hearth at home.
How many happy faces fit
Before US in the crowd!
We know their faintest wishes well,
mid thousand voices loud;
A tie still binds our hearts to theirs.
When far away we roam;
But ah! we're bound by dearer ties.
To those we leave at home.
The sickly frame may seek relief,
In fairest climes Of earth
But one is dearer than they all.
The spot that gave us birth.
The voices TO our hearts so dear,
Are heard where'er we roam;
How throns the feelings at the sound
Tho magic sound Of home!
The beauty Of Italia's skies
Will win upon the soul
The sea in dread magni6cenee,
Before the eye may roll;
But, ah! while gazing on them all.
A sweeter thought will come
The splendour Of the sky at eve
The stream we love a. home.
And maidens, gay and beautiful.
On the sunny shores Of France
And SPANS proud daughters may TO US
Sweet visions Of romance;
But dearer yet New-England's hills,
Her daughters are more fair
How many well-known forms arise!
Our own sweet home is there!
The father sits beside the hearth,
His child upon his knee,
And dearer yet than all to US.
The mothers smile we see;
And sisters forms, SO gentle, kind,
Upon the fancy come
All! where are those 80 dear to Us,
As those we love at home.
