Eraggeration.-A radical, inveighing
against the rapacity of the clergy, gave it
as his decided opinion that, if they had
their own way, they would raise the tithes
from tenth to twentieth. On the other
hand, an intended diminution, by the same
figure of speech, may amount to any ex-
aggeration. II have just met our old ac-

THE MOTHERS FAREWELL TO HER WELDED

IE MOTHERS FAREWELL TO HER WELDED
DAUGHTER.
Go, dearest one, my selfish love
Shall never pale thy check;
Not cen mothers fears for thee
Will I in sadness speak;
Yet how can with coldness check
g; The burning tears that start:
Hast thou not turned from me to dwell =
With another's heart -,....- q. ...
think on earlier, brighter days,
When FIRST my lips were prest ~.
Upon thy balmy brow, whilst thou
Lay helpless on my breast; .
In fancy still see thine eye
Uplif ed to my face,
I hear thy lisping tones, and mark,
With JOY thy childish grace.
Fen then knew it would be thussegS
4 thougl cen in that hour,
Another would its perfume steal,
When / had reared the flower;
And yet will not breathe Sigh
How can dare repine
Tile sorrow that the mother feels
Was suffered once by mine.
A mothers love oh thou know'st not
How much of feeling lies
In those sweet words the hopes, the fears
The daily STRENGTHENING ties:
It-livss ere yet the infant draws
It's earliest vital breath,
And dies but when mothers heart,
Chills in the grasp Of death.
Will he in whose fond arms thou seek'st
Thine all of earthly bliss,
Fer feel a love untiring, deep,
And free from self as this. s.
All no! husbands tenderness
Thy gentle heart may prove
But never, never wilt thou meet
Again mothers love.
My love for thee must ever be
Fond as in years gone by
While to my heart it shall be like
A dream of memory.
Dearest, farewell, may angel hosts
Their yigils DER thee keep,
How canI speak that fearful word,
:" Farewell" and yet not weep?

| Animal Sagaciy.-Mr. Campbell, Mis-.
sionary to The South Of Africa, relates the
following instance of the sagacity of cattle
/. in finding water in desert. They were
obliged 10 cross one of the sandy waists,
which are so common to the country, and
in which it is common for numbers of cat
tie to perish by thirst. By making as few
short stops as possible he escaped with
the loss of only four out of the hundred
and twenty or thirty which composed his
caravan. Besides these, large drove Of
sheep and goats followed the party, on
which the Hotten:ots were to snbsist. Or
one occasion, just at break of day, wher
all were ready to faint with thirst, the oxer
made sudden halt and snufed the all
around, as ifuncertain which way to pro-
ceed; while the sheep and goats taught by
instinct or observation to trust to the supe,
rior saguciry uf tire uScn, patiently waited
their decision. After few moments they
all struck off at brisk gallop towards q
small bushy hill at some distance; but
when the party arrived they found to theil
disappointment that the pools had just
been emptied. The oxen Immediately
took near direction followed by The
whole squadron and soon came to another
| pool, into which they plunged, the sheep
goats and the good missionary himself:

THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA.

The wall which separates China from
Tartary, has been built fnll two thousand
years, and is supposed to be upwards of
twelve hundred miles in length; its height
varies according to the circumstances of
the surface. 1t is upwards of thirty feet
high, and about twenty four broad. The
foundation is laid upon large square stones
the superstructure is brick; the centre is n
kind of mortar, covered with fag-stones.
A parapet of no ordinary strength runs on
each side of an embattled wall. five con-

widest rivers, on arches Of proportonate

alton will be required TO realizei1his effort of
man In every situation, however, the
passage along it is easy and uninterrupted;
and it serves as military road from one
end of the kingdom to the other. At
proper intervals there arc strong towers
placed, from whence signals arc repeated
and an alarm may be communicated to the
most distant parts of the empire, with the
expedition Of the telegraph.

pases.-The Committee of Publication
feel the necessity of peculiar caution,
in the consideration Of Juvenile biogra-
plies, when the principal feature is the
death Of their subjects. They would value
more highly the record of the useful, con-
sistent and humble Christian life of child;
yet the history of the early departure of a
young believer may furnish the strongest
testimony TO the power Of grace. This is
the recommendation of Miss B;ngham's
Memoirs, of whom the author, (the Rev.
Mr.. Parsons, of East Haddam, Connec-
ticut,) says
"In the course Of my public ministry
have passed through painful and heart
rending scenes, in visiting the sick and
the dying; and also through scenes that
were tender and solemn, yet mingled with
consolation and hope. But rarely, ifever,
has i. been my privilege to meet with
Christian, young or old, upon sick bed,
who from day to day, manifested such en-
